I'm just kidding, Hi, 0:00:10.600 --> 0:00:13.760 I'm doing simone. What is my name? 0:00:13.920 --> 0:00:14.080 Oh? 0:00:14.200 --> 0:00:20.239 I am Davion Roger And this is MTV's official Challenge podcast. 0:00:20.360 --> 0:00:27.000 Now now look, woo boy boy, oh boy. Today is 0:00:27.040 --> 0:00:32.919 a day that was an episode so much going on day? 0:00:32.960 --> 0:00:33.760 Wouldn't you say? 0:00:34.040 --> 0:00:38.280 This episode was out of control? Like across the Boy. 0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:42.080 I don't even know where to start what I I 0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:45.880 don't know? This episode was just a lot, a lot, 0:00:45.960 --> 0:00:47.720 A lot, A lot, a lot. How did you feel? 0:00:48.040 --> 0:00:49.680 Let's let's just go in order? 0:00:49.760 --> 0:00:50.120 Okay? 0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:51.879 How did you feel about the challenge? 0:00:52.320 --> 0:00:55.040 I want to know how heavy that wishbone? I knows? 0:00:55.360 --> 0:00:57.319 I know because I feel like it would have been 0:00:57.320 --> 0:01:01.319 super the era one initially thinking they could sit it 0:01:01.520 --> 0:01:07.000 up straight. I just need tea, and the way that 0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:10.880 they yelled at each other, Oh my gosh, I can't 0:01:11.200 --> 0:01:13.600 And then can we get into wait wait, wait, okay, 0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:18.039 because I need it on a T shirt? What Tina said? 0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:22.560 Bob and weed bitch Bob and we he was like, 0:01:22.600 --> 0:01:23.520 what are we supposed to know? 0:01:24.480 --> 0:01:25.640 He was like, where do we go? 0:01:25.920 --> 0:01:28.760 She was like Bob and we bitch Bob and we 0:01:29.040 --> 0:01:31.800 I cannot. I literally that needs to be a shirt. 0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:33.280 Somebody please make it out and send it to me 0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:36.640 in New York. Thank you. Amazing. Yeah, that was so good. 0:01:36.959 --> 0:01:38.560 What were your thoughts about A day? 0:01:38.760 --> 0:01:42.280 I was extremely impressed, not because it's my era, but 0:01:42.319 --> 0:01:46.360 I was extremely impressed with Era four. Communication was on points, 0:01:46.640 --> 0:01:49.280 hustle was on point, everything was on point, and so 0:01:49.320 --> 0:01:56.040 I was extremely extremely proud of them. Now Era one 0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:58.800 holds a very special place in my heart. But my 0:01:58.840 --> 0:01:59.960 babies are breaking down. 0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:06.680 Okay, like that mentally physically, they're all just completely breaking down. 0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:08.919 And you know what's an interesting sort of an observation 0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:13.560 is I think, because this is just my hypothesis, the 0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:15.480 longer you do the show, the more you think you 0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:17.560 know about it right because you're doing it. So we 0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:21.359 saw Era one fighting the most because no one wanted 0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:24.400 to back down from their perspective because they're like, look, 0:02:24.560 --> 0:02:26.600 I've seen this show for twenty years or I've been 0:02:26.600 --> 0:02:28.760 on this show for how many times or whatever else, 0:02:29.120 --> 0:02:32.440 which is probably true just for like aging in general. 0:02:32.560 --> 0:02:34.800 You know, the older you get, you feel like you 0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:37.360 get stubborn. So yeah, it was interesting seeing because it 0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:41.519 seemed like each era progressively their communication just got worse. 0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:44.399 Yeah it was, it was a hot mess. Era two 0:02:44.440 --> 0:02:48.519 what no better? But across the board, this was this 0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:50.520 challenge right here. And that's the thing that I love 0:02:50.520 --> 0:02:53.120 about these dailies is it's not just okay, let's get 0:02:53.120 --> 0:02:54.600 from point A to point B or let's do it 0:02:54.639 --> 0:02:55.600 like you have to talk. 0:02:56.080 --> 0:02:56.680 There's a lot of. 0:02:56.600 --> 0:02:59.520 Communication that goes on and that's where the ball gets 0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:05.200 dropped a lot, like how communication sucks across the board. 0:03:05.200 --> 0:03:07.480 And so I just I was really proud of Era 0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:11.200 four in this. Now they win and then we get 0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:18.880 into the chamber, laughing so hard, let's get into this 0:03:19.000 --> 0:03:23.119 chamber because I really feel like I feel like Tina, 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:26.160 even though she didn't do any of the talking, I 0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:28.880 feel like she stole the show of the chamber because 0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:31.480 my girl was in there with her pen and pencil 0:03:31.600 --> 0:03:35.120 and her notepad and she was taking all of the notes, 0:03:35.240 --> 0:03:38.560 every single piece of tea that was spilled. My girl 0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:42.440 she got it like she got all of it. And 0:03:42.480 --> 0:03:44.880 so I was really really really impressed watching this. 0:03:45.240 --> 0:03:49.760 Nea Mayah, you know what you would think after all 0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:55.880 these years, he would like learn to politic better. My god, 0:03:55.880 --> 0:03:58.800 I feel like you would. And you know what, I 0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:03.720 respect Devin so much for his approach in that situation. 0:04:04.400 --> 0:04:06.760 I respect because I do. We talk about people getting 0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:09.880 frazzled in making quick decisions for like voting people in 0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:11.600 and blah blah blah blah blah and be on the spot, 0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:15.120 but I feel like some people get themselves in trouble 0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:18.320 on this show. Yeah, because they make quick agreeance. They 0:04:18.360 --> 0:04:22.160 agree quickly when presented with you know, oh, be an alliance, 0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:23.599 like they kind of just like yeah, okay, and they 0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:26.400 don't really think it through. And I respect so much 0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:30.200 that Devin was like, you know, this sounds cool, but 0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:32.680 here's how I play, Like I need to take it 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:35.840 back to my teammate, Like I just like mad props 0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:39.400 to him being grace under pressure in that regard, and 0:04:39.440 --> 0:04:42.680 it obviously served him well in the end. And he 0:04:42.760 --> 0:04:44.640 wasn't the first to tell on Niam, Like, he didn't 0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:47.320 even bring it up in deliberation as far as we saw. 0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:54.039 I was completely and even like lie, like me, come 0:04:54.160 --> 0:04:57.480 kind of do something. I was just so like, what 0:04:57.760 --> 0:04:58.320 is going on? 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:01.880 I mean, he couldn't lie, but he should have thought through. 0:05:03.080 --> 0:05:05.440 He should have thought through the steps, Like I guess 0:05:05.440 --> 0:05:08.200 he really just didn't expect Devin to turn him down. 0:05:08.760 --> 0:05:13.159 But you also to negotiate, much like in dating. Okay, 0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:15.320 here we go. You gotta know what you bring to 0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:19.239 the table and be honest about it. So people trying 0:05:19.279 --> 0:05:24.520 to strike deals from a place of a disadvantage. Now granted, 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:26.920 he had Emily on his team, which is an advantage, 0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:28.800 but it's not like he and Emily are aligned or 0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:31.400 teammates for the whole time, you know, like two person 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:33.160 team the whole time. They just happen to be paired 0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:35.839 up in this moment. And Devin probably knew deep down 0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:39.640 that Emily speaks for herself in general, Like he probably 0:05:39.720 --> 0:05:41.400 knew that if Emily was on board, she would have 0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:44.200 come and spoken to him. And so look, love Nea 0:05:44.279 --> 0:05:46.880 mayah down and I would say the same thing about myself. 0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:51.600 But when negotiating, But you can't take two peanuts and 0:05:51.760 --> 0:05:55.600 try and get a smartphone, Like it's just not a 0:05:55.600 --> 0:05:59.120 fair trade. You need to be serious about what you 0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:01.799 are bringing, are off or maybe collect some more nuts. 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:04.960 I don't know, but we've seen it time and time 0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:08.360 again fail and then people get mad, yeah, because they 0:06:08.560 --> 0:06:11.160 their trade isn't accepted. And I think in this situation, 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:14.000 Neamyah was very much even though he won and again 0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:16.080 shout out to Niamaiyah, but I think the way he 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:18.960 presented the trade was very much. It was peanuts, yeah. 0:06:18.800 --> 0:06:22.440 Because and you also take into account who you're approaching. 0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:25.800 Devin is attached to half the cast, and it was. 0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:30.080 A mastermind when it comes to yeah, so. 0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:34.000 You know, it's almost like, no, what can you bring 0:06:34.040 --> 0:06:35.440 me that I don't already have? 0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:36.120 Right? 0:06:36.560 --> 0:06:41.159 He got peanuts, acorns, patascios, he got them all. 0:06:41.800 --> 0:06:44.279 Yeah. I just it didn't if people need to learn 0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:47.240 that's like negotiation one oh one, or at least make 0:06:47.279 --> 0:06:49.120 it a peer, like you have more than nuts in 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:51.240 the box. I don't know something and he did not. 0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:54.719 And what are your thoughts on how Kylin and Olivia 0:06:54.760 --> 0:06:55.360 handled it? 0:06:56.480 --> 0:06:58.720 I was here for it because Kyler was just kind 0:06:58.720 --> 0:07:01.000 of sitting back let everything. He really didn't have to 0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:03.120 do much but just kind of presented and then just 0:07:03.200 --> 0:07:06.680 watch every because as long as Devin and Nehemiah are 0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:09.400 kind of going back and forth telling on themselves of 0:07:09.480 --> 0:07:11.040 what happened, all you can do is sit there and 0:07:11.040 --> 0:07:13.800 collect information. And so I feel like the type of 0:07:13.920 --> 0:07:16.280 player that I believe that Kylon is. This was a 0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:18.960 great opportunity for him to sit back and whatever he 0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:21.040 did not know, he was able to get in. 0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:22.320 Yeah. I agree. 0:07:22.480 --> 0:07:25.960 So let's get into this elimination. Because what did we watch, Devin, 0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:28.960 What do we go to home depots today? 0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:33.400 Watch Tim the two man, Taylor and his neighbor Wilson. 0:07:34.280 --> 0:07:37.360 I was Wilson. We were all Wilson looking over the fence. 0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:42.880 If you're too young to get that reference, google it anyway. Yeah, 0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:45.240 it was a lot watching this elimination and to see 0:07:45.320 --> 0:07:48.920 CT go out on this one, it hurts weirdly. 0:07:49.440 --> 0:07:53.000 I don't like it going on. Yeah, I mean, and 0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:55.360 shout out to Neamya because he did that. He did 0:07:55.440 --> 0:07:59.480 he did that. And shout out for setting the standard 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:03.440 because maybe everybody tried to copy. So shout out to Tina. 0:08:03.760 --> 0:08:06.239 Tina looked like she was doing a demonstration at Costco. 0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:08.320 She made it look so easy. You know when you 0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:10.559 end up buying all that stuff you don't need, because 0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:13.400 when they did it, it looked so easy. You're like, oh, 0:08:13.480 --> 0:08:16.000 I can hang a hundred pictures at once too. She 0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:18.440 made it one two step, It's done, and then you 0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:20.480 get home and you're like, why I don't even know 0:08:20.560 --> 0:08:23.240 I did this to myself. That was Tina. Tina made 0:08:23.280 --> 0:08:25.000 it look so easy. 0:08:25.240 --> 0:08:28.120 My goodness, it was so different for everybody. And then 0:08:28.160 --> 0:08:32.680 we get to these targets. Okay, this is where we 0:08:32.720 --> 0:08:35.959 made differ, right, Okay, I'm listening because my heart breaks 0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:38.800 for Johnny and I know that, and I know you're 0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:41.640 gonna be like, well, she went back on her worm. 0:08:41.640 --> 0:08:43.079 Like Okay, I don't sound like that. 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:49.640 But for me, I feel like, what do you do? 0:08:49.760 --> 0:08:52.840 You know that you have this big alliance that are 0:08:52.840 --> 0:08:55.400 going to protect each other and they're not You're not 0:08:55.600 --> 0:08:58.360 in that alliance, and you're kind of like I think 0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:00.800 she kind of felt like, oh, they can't see me, but. 0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:04.120 She was drowning, and she like, what do I do? 0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:06.520 But I wonder if and we don't know, we'll have 0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:08.600 to get her on to ask this because obviously there's 0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:11.480 only so much they can show. But I wonder because 0:09:11.559 --> 0:09:15.640 my thought process is and I hear her concern. It's valid, 0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:18.000 especially when she's like, yeah, of course they want me 0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:19.520 to vote myself in. But also I know I'm at 0:09:19.520 --> 0:09:21.440 the bottom of the totem pole. I hear all of that. 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:28.040 But my question is, then did she have real conversations, 0:09:28.280 --> 0:09:31.520 not defensive ones, not just save me, but real conversations 0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:34.719 individually with like, okay, cool, I'm happy to be a 0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:36.680 team player now, knowing it's gonna have to break up 0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:39.040 at some point. I'm happy being a team player now, 0:09:39.760 --> 0:09:41.800 voting myself in now because we've all we're all taking 0:09:41.840 --> 0:09:44.600 turns like I'm fair, But are we all on the 0:09:44.679 --> 0:09:47.560 same page or can I have your word that for 0:09:47.720 --> 0:09:49.719 this game though, we as a team are gonna fight 0:09:49.760 --> 0:09:52.600 hard to win. I wonder because now she's just kissed 0:09:52.600 --> 0:09:55.760 everybody off. Whatever she didn't work, because she's now great. 0:09:55.800 --> 0:09:59.520 Now you're going in. Now the whole house potentially knows 0:09:59.600 --> 0:10:03.000 that you like waffled, and so now no one's gonna 0:10:03.040 --> 0:10:05.680 it's while she was trying to play a hidden game, 0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:09.040 which I you know, I respect, she's now there's like 0:10:09.080 --> 0:10:11.559 a limelight on her in a negative way, and I just. 0:10:11.760 --> 0:10:14.199 And that's the hard part because I don't know who 0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:16.520 her allies are, but it doesn't seem like she has 0:10:16.600 --> 0:10:18.600 a lot of allies inside of the house, and so 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:22.000 that's what makes her going back on her word different 0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:23.800 from Josh going back on his work because he can 0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:26.360 fall back on his lions, you know, and they're gonna 0:10:26.440 --> 0:10:28.920 cover and protect him. She doesn't have anybody to fall 0:10:28.960 --> 0:10:31.040 back on, so she's kind of stuck like a truck. 0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:33.520 You gotta be brave, like in this game. I think 0:10:33.559 --> 0:10:35.800 for all of us there's some element of bravery. And 0:10:35.840 --> 0:10:38.000 we've seen Johnny do it time and time again. I mean, 0:10:38.000 --> 0:10:40.520 she's a multi time champ. I think. I don't know 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:42.400 if it's because this is the main show. I don't 0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:43.880 know if it's because it was forty. I don't know 0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:46.400 if because the dynamics were different, having the different eras, 0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:48.880 but it was like in that moment, we really needed 0:10:48.880 --> 0:10:50.240 to see the john a bravery. 0:10:50.600 --> 0:10:52.960 I think that's I think that's the hard part because 0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:57.079 it's like it's that fine line between bravery versus stupidity. 0:10:57.559 --> 0:10:59.400 Yeah no, I'm not saying. Look, I think the difference 0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:02.280 is if no, no one's volunteering themselves ever and you 0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:04.439 suddenly go, I'm gonna do it like that time Jordan 0:11:04.520 --> 0:11:06.960 did it back in the day or whatever else that's stupid, 0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:10.000 or what Tony did that's stupid. But if there starts 0:11:10.000 --> 0:11:12.880 to be a trend of the team and everyone's kind 0:11:12.920 --> 0:11:15.440 of on board. It's kind of like picking your battles right, Like, 0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:19.319 the risk potentially is greater by jumping out of line 0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:22.160 against the team right now than it would have been 0:11:22.640 --> 0:11:26.160 to volunteer, make sure the team's on board to win though, 0:11:26.240 --> 0:11:28.679 kick ass for the next challenge, whatever that may be, 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:30.280 and then from that point on, at least she can 0:11:30.320 --> 0:11:32.160 be like, Okay, I'm a woman on my word. You know, 0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:34.840 she could build alliances around her word being valuable. But 0:11:34.960 --> 0:11:36.480 we'll just have to see how it plays out. I 0:11:36.520 --> 0:11:39.839 get her fear, but I feel like it's putting her 0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:43.160 in a tougher spot. Speaking of a tough spot, why 0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:47.200 don't we talk about who's getting your gold, your silver, 0:11:47.280 --> 0:11:50.520 your bronze, your participation, and then we'll go into who's 0:11:50.520 --> 0:11:53.040 getting the gold star and the timeout of the week, 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:53.719 starting with you. 0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:58.760 Day okay, Era one participation. I'm glad you guys are here, 0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:04.720 so glad that Charlie reed to come and do this challenge. 0:12:05.679 --> 0:12:07.559 Era two bronze. 0:12:07.600 --> 0:12:09.520 We appreciate you too. 0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:18.760 We appreciate you too. Era three m okay, okay. Now, 0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:21.200 usually I would have given them bronze for the way 0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:24.160 that it was just chaotic and it was hecticing all 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:28.720 this yelling and screaming, but sometimes sometimes you need it. 0:12:28.720 --> 0:12:30.840 It's almost like this is gonna sound so bad. It's 0:12:30.840 --> 0:12:33.040 almost like you don't understand what I'm saying unless I'm yelling, 0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:36.120 Like you don't get it unless I'm yelling. If I 0:12:36.160 --> 0:12:37.559 just say it to you don't understand it. But when 0:12:37.559 --> 0:12:40.760 I start yelling, then you understand it. And so that's 0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:45.320 what was happening. Jordan was like, listen, if you would 0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:47.720 just do this, do that, Like he really had to 0:12:47.760 --> 0:12:50.000 put his foot down, you know, and Tory had to 0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:52.440 put her foot down in order for them to make 0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:54.760 it come together. And so that's I'm gonna give them 0:12:54.760 --> 0:12:57.760 the silver, and I'm gonna give the gold medal to 0:12:58.120 --> 0:13:03.840 Era four because they rocked out. They rocked out today 0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:04.880 or that day. 0:13:04.960 --> 0:13:09.640 But what about you, that's all valid Era one Yes participation. 0:13:09.760 --> 0:13:11.640 I think we align like, thank you for showing thank 0:13:11.679 --> 0:13:13.199 you for getting out of bed. I know it was 0:13:13.240 --> 0:13:16.120 probably a struggle to do some stretches, but appreciate you 0:13:16.160 --> 0:13:19.880 for getting out of bed. Then bronze is gonna go 0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:24.760 to I'm actually gonna say it's gonna go to Air two. Yep, 0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:27.040 because of the all the fighting just in general, all 0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:30.480 the fighting and Laurel's play was a smart play for 0:13:30.559 --> 0:13:32.640 her game. I don't love it, but it's a valid 0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:35.560 play for her game. And and if Emily seems like 0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:37.480 she wants, the longer you let her in the game, 0:13:37.520 --> 0:13:39.240 the harder it's gonna be to get her out. And 0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:40.920 she's on your team, so you're not gonna be able 0:13:40.920 --> 0:13:43.400 to personally take her out. That's not a dumb move, 0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:46.880 it's just it's not But give them bronze. Silver is 0:13:46.920 --> 0:13:50.160 gonna have to go to Era three as well. I 0:13:50.240 --> 0:13:53.520 like the way they handled negotiations this time, like, I 0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:56.520 think it was played very well. And then yes gold 0:13:56.760 --> 0:14:00.760 has to go to air for the communication level was 0:14:00.800 --> 0:14:04.280 on point. Yeah, they did an excellent job and executing. 0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:07.839 They seemed pretty calm throughout the whole time. Here for 0:14:07.880 --> 0:14:10.839 it a fan. Now, who gets your gold Star of 0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:13.080 the week and your time out? And are we rationing 0:14:13.120 --> 0:14:14.960 it like it's nineteen twelve again? 0:14:15.360 --> 0:14:20.840 Okay, so I'm gonna pull you. I'm gonna have a nominee. Okay, 0:14:22.360 --> 0:14:29.720 the editor when they talk about Laurel throwing it, and 0:14:29.760 --> 0:14:31.960 then it cuts to her confessional when she's like, well, 0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:35.720 I mean, yeah, her leaving is not a bad thing. 0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:37.920 Ed is top Tiers so good? 0:14:38.120 --> 0:14:40.720 It was so good. But at the end of the day, 0:14:40.840 --> 0:14:45.640 I feel like one person owned for me this entire episode, 0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:47.320 and I'm going to give it to Tita to the 0:14:47.360 --> 0:14:51.640 same I'm gonna give it to Tina. Tina rocked this 0:14:51.720 --> 0:14:55.440 episode for me, like hands down, by herself. I'm not 0:14:55.440 --> 0:14:58.000 giving no parts to nobody else. I'm giving it to Tina. 0:14:58.040 --> 0:14:58.600 How about you? 0:14:59.320 --> 0:15:04.240 Yes, yes, this was Tina's episode. Hands down. Tina is 0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:09.200 freaking hilarious. I cannot Bob and we bitch is literally 0:15:09.760 --> 0:15:11.600 a needs to go on a shirt Bob and we 0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:13.960 bitch Bob and wech And then was the other thing 0:15:14.080 --> 0:15:16.800 when they said the name of the elimination, it was 0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:19.000 called getting hammered, and she said, ooh I did that 0:15:19.080 --> 0:15:23.760 last night. Tina is everything. And then her turn te 0:15:23.840 --> 0:15:27.480 tea making up like thirty seconds after being like, oh, if. 0:15:27.400 --> 0:15:28.640 You like, I'm sorry. 0:15:29.200 --> 0:15:32.400 Tina is just she is a whole. Like it took 0:15:32.480 --> 0:15:34.520 everything I mean not to text her because we like girl, 0:15:34.880 --> 0:15:37.280 like I cannot with you. She's freaking hilarious. She gets 0:15:37.320 --> 0:15:40.440 my gold star, who gets your time out of the week? 0:15:41.320 --> 0:15:43.880 So I'm gonna put two people in time out this week. 0:15:44.160 --> 0:15:47.760 I'm gonna Putkarra and Laurel in timeout. And not only 0:15:47.800 --> 0:15:50.000 in timeout, I want to put them in one of 0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:52.800 them oversized T shirts with the two heads so they 0:15:52.840 --> 0:15:55.080 can have the one T shirt, that get along T shirt? 0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:59.160 Because what are we doing? This is long, this is dragged, 0:15:59.200 --> 0:16:03.440 as tired. The story has ran stale. We are tired 0:16:03.800 --> 0:16:07.080 of it. Either get it together or don't ever talk 0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:10.280 to each other ever again, Like pick a side, like 0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:12.720 don't straddle the fence. Y'all can't be in a gray 0:16:12.720 --> 0:16:15.080 area no more. Ain't no more gray. You're black or 0:16:15.080 --> 0:16:16.960 you're white. What you're doing? Get up out of there. 0:16:17.480 --> 0:16:18.000 I can't. 0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:20.960 I can't handle it anymore because now it's starting to 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:25.680 get very It's like it's nasty. It's starting to get 0:16:25.680 --> 0:16:28.880 really nasty between the two of them. And as far 0:16:28.920 --> 0:16:33.120 as this situation that happened today, both were wrong my 0:16:33.200 --> 0:16:36.440 personal opinion, I felt like Kara was pushing the buttons 0:16:36.480 --> 0:16:40.080 and egging it on, but Laurel self control, so it's 0:16:40.160 --> 0:16:44.680 like come on, like, oh, it was just it's. 0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:45.280 Not fun to watch. 0:16:45.320 --> 0:16:49.800 We don't want to see that. It's too heavy. Great competitors, 0:16:49.840 --> 0:16:55.040 like such great women, strong competitors like pull it together 0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:58.720 and to say, get yourself together. That's what we want 0:16:58.720 --> 0:16:59.280 to see. 0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:01.480 This is why said Dave Bon's gonna pop off earlier, 0:17:01.520 --> 0:17:05.000 you guys, because we've talked about this. I agree. I think, 0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:08.520 A it's just so toxic. I'm gonna throw one additional 0:17:08.520 --> 0:17:11.120 person there, Michelle, because I feel like she is climbing 0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:13.399 the wall to like be in that toxicity. And I 0:17:13.440 --> 0:17:16.240 think all three of them, it's not good for any 0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:21.280 of them. I also, I think sometimes we have to 0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:26.000 remember that naturally people root for the underdog, and people 0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:28.320 can be deemed an underdog, whether it be their experience, 0:17:28.320 --> 0:17:30.240 whether it be their size, whether it be their voice, 0:17:30.240 --> 0:17:33.600 how they present themselves, all sorts of things, and oftentimes 0:17:33.640 --> 0:17:36.520 what will happen is when the sort of bigger person 0:17:36.600 --> 0:17:40.000 or the one the seemingly top dog, bites back at 0:17:40.000 --> 0:17:43.760 the underdog, even if the underdog was like the chihuahua 0:17:43.840 --> 0:17:46.520 that was biting initially, then the top dog gets the 0:17:46.600 --> 0:17:51.040 most flax. So seeing that sort of juxtaposition of Laurel 0:17:51.040 --> 0:17:52.719 by herself, but I think she probably does better by 0:17:52.720 --> 0:17:57.359 herself and everyone coming around Kara like oh, like I look, 0:17:57.520 --> 0:18:00.000 it was bad for both of them, and I feel 0:18:00.160 --> 0:18:04.080 for both of them, but it's not realistic to pretend 0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:07.639 we didn't watch Kara poking, poking, poking, pok poking, and 0:18:07.720 --> 0:18:09.760 Laurel bit back and she bit back really hard and 0:18:09.800 --> 0:18:12.280 went lower than like I when she said what she said, 0:18:12.760 --> 0:18:15.639 Kara calling her stupid b I was just like, oh gosh, 0:18:15.640 --> 0:18:19.639 that's awful, because it is and not okay. But she 0:18:19.720 --> 0:18:21.720 also was trying to make a sandwich and was being 0:18:21.720 --> 0:18:22.680 antagonized a lot. 0:18:22.760 --> 0:18:24.680 You antagonized when you hungry. 0:18:24.800 --> 0:18:27.479 Oh, don't do what I'm hungry. No, there's a tw 0:18:27.480 --> 0:18:29.280 if you go on my instagram, pretty sure's a tweet 0:18:29.320 --> 0:18:30.840 that says I'm sorry for the things I said when 0:18:30.880 --> 0:18:35.320 I was hungry, and because yeah, yeah, you don't want 0:18:35.359 --> 0:18:39.040 me to bite back. So my mother's like that, Lord, 0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:41.400 you don't want her to my back. She's I mom. 0:18:42.560 --> 0:18:45.560 So yeah, I think it's just all bad. So all 0:18:45.600 --> 0:18:48.520 three of them get time out. Because also, Michelle, we're 0:18:48.520 --> 0:18:50.440 seeing this again too, and we've seen it before. You're 0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:52.320 trying to be We've talked about it on the podcast, 0:18:52.400 --> 0:18:53.959 like let it go, Michelle. You have people who love 0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:57.800 you have a budding romance girl. All right, like, go 0:18:58.240 --> 0:19:01.080 enjoy all the great things that are happening. You don't 0:19:01.119 --> 0:19:03.720 need Laurel's approval. So yeah, all of them going to 0:19:03.760 --> 0:19:06.439 time out along with TJ's shirt. That's the shirt they 0:19:06.440 --> 0:19:10.879 can wear. But this episode is a winner. It's a 0:19:10.920 --> 0:19:14.879 gold star across the board. We have a fabulous guest 0:19:15.000 --> 0:19:16.440 coming on. Who do we have day? 0:19:16.960 --> 0:19:21.960 We have the one, the only, mislove and peace herself, 0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:25.840 Emily strom I can't wait.

Okay, let's get back to the show, 0:19:42.320 --> 0:19:46.800 ladies and gentle friends. We are so excited to welcome 0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:50.840 our next guest. She's been described as a walking ray 0:19:51.080 --> 0:19:55.000 of sunshine, and I have to say I very much agree. 0:19:55.119 --> 0:19:59.119 Probably the most positive energy in the Challenge house. We 0:19:59.160 --> 0:20:02.240 were so sad to see her go today, but she's 0:20:02.280 --> 0:20:04.280 here with us right now. Please give it up for 0:20:04.400 --> 0:20:07.320 the fabulous Emily Stromo. 0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:11.919 You know, at least I was tan, you all, at 0:20:12.000 --> 0:20:12.720 least I was tan. 0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:15.440 That's literally what she was commenting, you guys, when we 0:20:15.440 --> 0:20:18.800 were watching the elimination, she just kept commenting, at least 0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:22.840 I look tan stuff snatched excellent. What was going on 0:20:22.880 --> 0:20:25.119 with that? I know we're jumping ahead, but it's because 0:20:25.160 --> 0:20:27.399 you also said in the comments as we were watching this, 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:31.800 watch the boys try to do Tina's technique as well. 0:20:32.160 --> 0:20:35.160 And sure enough, the boys tried Tina's technique and fit. 0:20:35.240 --> 0:20:39.040 Obviously it an't work. So what exactly was going on? 0:20:39.800 --> 0:20:42.000
