Speaker 1: Two Teas in a Pod, which Teddy Mellencamp and camera Jeedge.
Speaker 2: Okay, guys, we're here for another episode of to Teas
Speaker 2: in a Pod. We are recapping Traders Season three, episode four.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, this was so good, so good.
Speaker 1: I was in bed watching it and at the end
Speaker 1: of this episode just screaming and clapping and oh my god,
Speaker 1: oh my god.
Speaker 2: It was just I mean, it was such a good episode.
Speaker 2: But the fact that Gabby heard Danielle's voice behind the
Speaker 2: bookcase but didn't stick around to see, like who all
Speaker 2: the Traders were?
Speaker 3: Yeah, but didn't. With the angle of the camera, it
Speaker 3: looked like she saw her walk out.
Speaker 2: She did, and then she even later on in the
Speaker 2: episode when they're at breakfast, she tells people and then
Speaker 2: effortlessly she believed, like she doesn't trust her own instincts
Speaker 2: and goes along with like, oh, everybody was in the
Speaker 2: you know book case.
Speaker 1: Well, she was afraid that that could have been they
Speaker 1: could be Traders and they were gonna get rid of her,
Speaker 1: so she was trying to act stupid.
Speaker 2: I think no, I don't think I think she really
Speaker 2: I think she believed it. But then the second that
Speaker 2: the all of them were like, oh, yeah, we went in,
Speaker 2: We went in. Then she didn't try, like she didn't
Speaker 2: trust herself.
Speaker 3: I mean, they're so lucky they didn't get caught.
Speaker 2: I mean they did get caught, but I think.
Speaker 1: They they would have been a smarter move to keep
Speaker 1: the door open and just keep an eye out to see,
Speaker 1: you know, and just be looking like no big deal.
Speaker 1: Then to close yourself into this room and then you
Speaker 1: have to open it up, not knowing who the hell's
Speaker 1: on the other side of that wall. Yeah, and then
Speaker 1: that to me looks totally suspicious. But Dylan's saying something
Speaker 1: going in there after the door is open and saying
Speaker 1: something has changed.
Speaker 3: We are late, we are late, And I'm like, what
Speaker 3: is he talking about? What is he How did he
Speaker 3: even pick up on that?
Speaker 2: I mean, but after searching the room and coming so
Speaker 2: close to finding the murder list, Dylan thinks he was late,
Speaker 2: and he was right.
Speaker 3: He was late to what like late catching them in
Speaker 3: there or.
Speaker 2: No, like I think he knew, like he had that
Speaker 2: like feeling that there was something in that room, which
Speaker 2: there was the kill list, but he couldn't find it.
Speaker 3: So yeah, at that time, did they didn't know anything
Speaker 3: about the kill list. Did they know?
Speaker 2: But he he knew there was something, but he couldn't
Speaker 2: figure out what it was.
Speaker 1: Well, they all knew something was going on because it
Speaker 1: was kind of sparse everybody, there was no one to
Speaker 1: be found anywhere.
Speaker 2: But also like Gabby could have been a little bit
Speaker 2: more like Scooby Doo or like the second that one
Speaker 2: walked out, she like hid to the side.
Speaker 3: Like I would have done that. I would have been
Speaker 3: trying to listen.
Speaker 1: And that's why that's what I met when she she
Speaker 1: was like, I just want to go out here. I
Speaker 1: don't want them to, you know, have a target on
Speaker 1: me because I saw them walking out.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Then Jeremy, Nikki, and Sierra have been shortlisted for
Speaker 2: murder and lay in their coffins. Jeremy suspects Danielle as
Speaker 2: the trader who wanted him murdered, but for his final words,
Speaker 2: he says he'll work with the traders if they keep
Speaker 2: him around. Sierra and Nick are determined to hunt down
Speaker 2: the Traders if they live, with Sierra cussing in her
Speaker 2: speech saying I'm a fucking faithful I will find you
Speaker 2: and fucking hunt you down.
Speaker 3: Why do you think they picked those three. They were
Speaker 3: so random.
Speaker 2: I feel like they picked them just to throw everybody
Speaker 2: off their scent. Except for Jeremy, I think was picked
Speaker 2: because you know clearly they.
Speaker 3: Didn't like him.
Speaker 1: But when I thought, oh my god, well now we're
Speaker 1: gonna know who the Faithfuls are because they were in
Speaker 1: that box, but I didn't think ten steps ahead, and
Speaker 1: like the other contestants thought like, oh my god, there
Speaker 1: had to have been a trader in that box, had
Speaker 1: to add of one of the three. There had to
Speaker 1: have been a trader, and there wasn't, which really Nicky.
Speaker 2: Was a strong one, so she would put herself in
Speaker 2: the box. Yeah, but like I'm not I I mean, granted,
Speaker 2: I know who the traders are, but like I don't
Speaker 2: get trader vibes from Nicki or Sierra or Jeremy, Like
Speaker 2: I didn't have that at all.
Speaker 1: Do you think that it would be a better show
Speaker 1: if they didn't show the traders faces and we don't
Speaker 1: know who the traders are and they like disguise their
Speaker 1: voice and keep their hoods on.
Speaker 2: I don't know, I feel like that would be too much.
Speaker 2: Like I mean, I think it would be good, but
Speaker 2: then like it's like you're less allowed to be involved. No,
Speaker 2: I mean, I'd like to guess, but I also I
Speaker 2: kind of like knowing. I do think they could bring
Speaker 2: in like new traders and maybe not tell us who
Speaker 2: the new traders are. So that way, there's a part
Speaker 2: of you that feels like you're in on the game,
Speaker 2: but the other part of you's guessing.
Speaker 1: But Derek thinking that Sierra is a trader because she cusses,
Speaker 1: I mean, that's how silly. The beginning of the show is.
Speaker 1: I really don't You're trying to find some reason. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, Teddy's eyebrow on the left is a little
Speaker 1: bit higher, so.
Speaker 2: I'm like, that's the botox.
Speaker 3: You must be a trader. I'm just making that up,
Speaker 3: but it's such a reach.
Speaker 1: In the very beginning, it's funny to see like he's
Speaker 1: breathing heavy.
Speaker 2: But they're at breakfast, and then Gaby reveals her suspicions
Speaker 2: about Danielle. Robin decides to address everyone at and ask
Speaker 2: who was in the bookcase last night. I wish she
Speaker 2: wouldn't have done that. I know, doing really well at
Speaker 2: the beginning, and now I'm like, Robin, you're making all
Speaker 2: the wrong moves and your picker is so off.
Speaker 1: Her picker is so off. But you know, she's so outspoken.
Speaker 1: She's ballsy to bring up the the bookcase at breakfast.
Speaker 1: I mean she's to me, I keep going to say less, Robin,
Speaker 1: say less.
Speaker 3: You're saying too much.
Speaker 2: Because then this is where Gabby starts to not trust
Speaker 2: herself because Danielle admits she and Dylan were in there,
Speaker 2: because she did go back into the bookcase with Dylan,
Speaker 2: which he can obviously confirm, and Bob the drag Queen
Speaker 2: admits to being there too, and then Gabby's back to
Speaker 2: square one.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about Bob's bad acting at breakfast.
Speaker 3: Oh yay, how many traders?
Speaker 1: I mean everything every saying and he's shaking and he's
Speaker 1: put in his cla I'm like, stop, you need to stop.
Speaker 2: Between Bob doing that and Danielle crying all the time
Speaker 2: and then Robin calling out the whole room thinking she's
Speaker 2: on Housewives and this is what's gonna.
Speaker 3: Worry But the things wrong, I know. But the thing
Speaker 3: is is.
Speaker 1: Like when you're a trader, you you have to overthink
Speaker 1: like what you're saying and doing, and you sometimes it's hard.
Speaker 1: It'd be hard to do that. I wouldn't want to
Speaker 1: be a trader. It'd be really difficult.
Speaker 2: Then Sierra and Nicky arrive at breakfast, which means Jeremy
Speaker 2: was murdered. Carolyn's crying and her confessional about being forced
Speaker 2: to murder Jeremy. She was crying with no tears, but
Speaker 2: she was crying. She was, And then Nicky remembers Jeremy
Speaker 2: accusing Danielle before he was murdered, So that's who she
Speaker 2: has her eye on. Do you think the Traders made
Speaker 2: the right murder? I mean, clearly not.
Speaker 3: With what's his name, Jeremy Jeremy. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think it's just too early in the game to
Speaker 1: really I don't know. He was a nothing burger for me,
Speaker 1: to be honest with you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's probably why he got murdered.
Speaker 3: And then he was also onto Danielle.
Speaker 1: So I mean, Danielle is obviously running this game, running
Speaker 1: the Traders for sure, and so if somebody's coming after her,
Speaker 1: she is going to get rid of them.
Speaker 2: Yeah. After breakfast, everyone's speculating who the trader is. Many
Speaker 2: people suspect it's either Nikki or Sierra because the trader
Speaker 2: likely put themselves in the coffin. Dylan is still convinced
Speaker 2: that Bob the Drag Queen, but he can't go after
Speaker 2: him again. Then they get into the challenge for that day.
Speaker 2: The players have forty five minutes to reconstruct massive statues.
Speaker 2: Each finished statue is and added two thousand dollars into
Speaker 2: the prize. Plot is you can only get a shield
Speaker 2: if the head with your name is on the body.
Speaker 2: Watching Bob h struggle like really pulled at like my
Speaker 2: heart strings because you know, like how important fitness was
Speaker 2: in his life and what a big part it was.
Speaker 2: And then he said, you know, when he had his
Speaker 2: heart attack ten years ago, it like shook him to
Speaker 2: his core and you could see like the real like
Speaker 2: internal fight there, like I want to be able to
Speaker 2: do this so bad and this should be easy for me,
Speaker 2: and I can't do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's very much what Eddie went through, as anybody
Speaker 1: that's an athlete and then has heart issues, you can't
Speaker 1: barely walk.
Speaker 3: Without being out of breath. Yeah, but it is really sad.
Speaker 2: Then Tom Bob Ah, Bob the Drag Queen, Rob, Dylan West, Brittany, Danielle, Chrischelle,
Speaker 2: and Dolores received shields, so they get the added twenty
Speaker 2: thousand to the pot. Bob the Drag Queen claims that
Speaker 2: the new guys didn't need a shield tonight because they
Speaker 2: all think one of them has to be trader.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm honestly surprised no one else mentioned this. There's
Speaker 1: a good chance that one of the later players is
Speaker 1: a trader.
Speaker 2: But do you think Bob the Drag Queen was intentionally
Speaker 2: trying to put the heat on Rob?
Speaker 3: I do, Yes, yeah he was.
Speaker 2: But I also was thinking if only Tom Sandoval went
Speaker 2: as far to like fix his reputation as he does
Speaker 2: to like, well, here's that damn statue.
Speaker 1: Yeah, here's the thing we talked about with Wells. Nobody
Speaker 1: suspects that Tom Sandoval is a trader. So he is
Speaker 1: getting off by a technicality because he's a trader in
Speaker 1: real life, so to be a trader on the show,
Speaker 1: They're like, eh, he's a nothing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, then we're.
Speaker 3: Gonna have to be stuck with him for a while.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're going to be seeing him in his sweat
Speaker 2: for a while. Then Rob is pissed. Bob the Drag
Speaker 2: Queen put a target on his back, so now he
Speaker 2: needs to take action. Rob doesn't think he should call
Speaker 2: Bob out publicly because he doesn't want to lose the
Speaker 2: other trader's trust. So he's going to plant seeds. But
Speaker 2: then he ends up kind of doing both. He calls
Speaker 2: him out publicly and plant seeds. He pulls Dylan aside.
Speaker 2: But I just let we got to protect Dylan Efron
Speaker 2: at all costs.
Speaker 1: Like he is such a good good he's such a
Speaker 1: good player, he could possibly win.
Speaker 2: So I don't he's I don't know. I think he's
Speaker 2: so good they're going to get him out soon. But
Speaker 2: then we get to know.
Speaker 3: I think he's too smart. I think he's gonna last
Speaker 3: quite a while, if not all the way to the end.
Speaker 2: But Rob is good because he did a very good
Speaker 2: Then we get to the roundtable, and not only did
Speaker 2: he get a good job of like planning seeds everywhere,
Speaker 2: but his ability to make Bob the drag Queen lose
Speaker 2: his cool while staying staying cool is a culcumber. Like
Speaker 2: I was watching that, I was like, there is no
Speaker 2: way people aren't going to vote for Bob at this point.
Speaker 1: Well, I forgot that Rob was a trader because he
Speaker 1: came in you know hot, Well, he came in after
Speaker 1: like you know, after the round to traders were picked,
Speaker 1: so I didn't realize that he was, you know, a
Speaker 1: trader going after a trader.
Speaker 3: And then at the round table, like what happened there?
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, all the traders are
Speaker 1: going after Bob the Drag Queen.
Speaker 2: What about how Danielle was crying in her confessional like,
Speaker 2: Bob the Drag Queen is my ride or die. I
Speaker 2: will do anything for him. I would never vote him out.
Speaker 2: Then the second person we see put the name tag
Speaker 2: Bob the Drag Queen down Danielle.
Speaker 3: I think she knew.
Speaker 1: She knew if she voted for Not voting for him
Speaker 1: might even make her look suspicious because you know, so
Speaker 1: many people thought that it was him. Tom saund of
Speaker 1: all consistently being wrong never gets old. Well, and Rob,
Speaker 1: he really thinks he knows the game.
Speaker 3: And it's so funny. When we turned it on last night,
Speaker 3: Eddie goes that.
Speaker 2: Dude, she's on there, Oh my gosh. But I mean
Speaker 2: I didn't, I don't know. I don't think Sierra seems
Speaker 2: like a trader. I don't think Nicky seems like a trader,
Speaker 2: and so it's just kind of bananas to me. That
Speaker 2: people were so hesitant to go after Bob the Drag
Speaker 2: Queen because I think that was so obvious. But well,
Speaker 2: he was.
Speaker 3: He was the Phaedra.
Speaker 1: He's kind of over the top, he's talking, he's everybody's friend,
Speaker 1: and those are the type of.
Speaker 3: People that you really don't want to go after.
Speaker 1: Dolores as well, she's she's very you know, hugging everything.
Speaker 3: I loved everybody.
Speaker 2: I love her so much.
Speaker 3: We'll last long as well.
Speaker 2: But also I thought it was a little like I
Speaker 2: get that Bob the Drag Queen was annoyed that he's
Speaker 2: being called out, but I.
Speaker 3: Don't think he needed well, like why do you need
Speaker 3: to come after.
Speaker 1: Zach Ahak, I know, and Zach Effron's wiley at home
Speaker 1: watching his brother, going.
Speaker 3: Why am I on this? Leave me alone?
Speaker 2: But also Zach Efron is a good actor, Like if
Speaker 2: we're gonna we're gonna compare apples to apples.
Speaker 1: I think Zach was just kind of it was just
Speaker 1: kind of a low blow. But I think, you know,
Speaker 1: at that roundtable, he was so furious. He knew he
Speaker 1: was going home and he was so pissed off. Trying
Speaker 1: to is cool. And Dylan is the one that's really
Speaker 1: he knows what's going on on that show.
Speaker 2: And then where I think Bob the Drag Queen sealed
Speaker 2: his fate is when he was like, I swear to God,
Speaker 2: I know, and I was like, he's he's done. They're not.
Speaker 2: That is the Cardinal Housewife rule. If you swear in
Speaker 2: your kid's life or you swear to God.
Speaker 3: I don't Lovely talked about this before, but.
Speaker 1: My season, everybody was going froll ours at the roundtable
Speaker 1: and she said, guys, I swear to God on my
Speaker 1: children's life. And Alan came down and stopped the game
Speaker 1: and said, no, we are not doing this. Don't you
Speaker 1: ever do that again.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's never good when somebody says that,
Speaker 2: because it immediately makes you feel well.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that he didn't believe in God, so
Speaker 1: it was no big deal to him.
Speaker 3: But I'm like, oh my god, why is he doing that?
Speaker 3: Why is he saying But even if you.
Speaker 2: Believe in God or you don't, it is a thing
Speaker 2: when people say I swear to God, or I swear
Speaker 2: my children's lives or I swore like they're trying too
Speaker 2: hard to convince you. Even if they do believe in God,
Speaker 2: it's like, you now have made it such a dramatic
Speaker 2: like trying to be honest that I don't believe you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess.
Speaker 1: I mean I've been mad before and gotten accused of
Speaker 1: something and I'm like, oh.
Speaker 3: My god, I swear to God, I did not do that.
Speaker 1: You know, It's like it's just kind of like a
Speaker 1: go to But yeah, but then they, you know, we
Speaker 1: get through the voting, it's clear that that it's going
Speaker 1: to be.
Speaker 2: For a second, you're like, maybe it's gonna be Maybe,
Speaker 2: maybe it's gonna be Sierra. But then you know, Boston
Speaker 2: Rob just handled it like Boston Rob.
Speaker 3: He's so good. He reminds me of see what's the
Speaker 3: name ceg c T.
Speaker 1: You remind me a ct on the challenge on my season.
Speaker 3: He's from Boston as well. Really good.
Speaker 1: But all three traders voting for one of their own
Speaker 1: was just crazy to me. This is probably the first
Speaker 1: time it's happened.
Speaker 3: This early in the game.
Speaker 1: Normally they you know, in the past, they don't do
Speaker 1: it until later. I think Dan was the first one
Speaker 1: on Ours to Go and that was episode four or five.
Speaker 2: Yes, but this episode also left me thinking about what,
Speaker 2: like what did Brittany and Sam talk about headbands and
Speaker 2: like when was he like I should wear it tomorrow.
Speaker 1: And all that downtime, all the downtime that they have,
Speaker 1: Like it's crazy. It is crazy. I know, like Eddie
Speaker 1: would not do well because they literally go sit in
Speaker 1: that room and you can be in there for hours.
Speaker 2: And then we have Bob stands up and does his
Speaker 2: like final thing and admits to being a trader, and
Speaker 2: then you see it was.
Speaker 1: A good speech, and I like jumped up out of
Speaker 1: the bed and was like clapping, and everybody was so excited.
Speaker 1: It's the soonest they've gotten a trader off, I think, out.
Speaker 2: Of all the and it really shows how good Rob
Speaker 2: is at this game, how little they listened to Carolyn.
Speaker 2: But then in the coming up episode it looks like
Speaker 2: Danielle and Carolyn made team up to take Rob out
Speaker 2: of the game.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I did a few fan thoughts and we had
Speaker 1: a few fan thoughts on Instagram.
Speaker 3: Good move for the traders and murdered Jeremy. He was
Speaker 3: onto them.
Speaker 1: Has a trader ever called out another trader? Yes, they have,
Speaker 1: but it usually isn't.
Speaker 3: Until later in the game.
Speaker 1: Rob may have overplayed his hand Delores had a great episode.
Speaker 3: Bob the Dragon Queen did it to himself.
Speaker 2: Yeah he did, he did. He went too.
Speaker 3: Hard, but it was so good. I'm like it was.
Speaker 2: It was good episode. Really.
Speaker 1: There's so much talk about it not being able to
Speaker 1: beat last season, you know, because Phager was so amazing
Speaker 1: and so many amazing players, But I think it might.
Speaker 1: It might be right up there with with season two
Speaker 1: for sure.
Speaker 2: I'm loving it, so thanks for tuning in.
