0:00:58.960 --> 0:01:06.480
<v Speaker 1>Yayano Cucamonga and the notes. It's like where you're from,

0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:09.920
<v Speaker 1>but I'm like, I don't know you know. One, thank

0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:11.840
<v Speaker 1>you for that intro. If I could have that every

0:01:11.840 --> 0:01:16.680
<v Speaker 1>time I entered the room, life would be better. I'll

0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:19.039
<v Speaker 1>work on it. And two, I only went to high

0:01:19.080 --> 0:01:21.400
<v Speaker 1>school in Rancho Cucamonga, so it's funny they say, I'm

0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:23.000
<v Speaker 1>from there, but I only went to high school there,

0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:25.440
<v Speaker 1>but still you would see me. All right, Well, if

0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:28.959
<v Speaker 1>you're in Kansas City. If you're in Kansas City, say

0:01:29.040 --> 0:01:32.959
<v Speaker 1>hi tonymya, Yeah, he's out. Hello Queens, Hello queens, I

0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:36.280
<v Speaker 1>love you guys. With sub Queen and King of the Palace,

0:01:36.600 --> 0:01:38.840
<v Speaker 1>we got Queen Tory, who I am a fan of

0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:43.200
<v Speaker 1>now watching kick so much ass and your athleticism and everything.

0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:47.280
<v Speaker 1>So thank you for having me. Yeah, of course, and

0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:50.800
<v Speaker 1>you just made it to this final. You kicked ass

0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:53.280
<v Speaker 1>in this final and All Stars too. How do you

0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:57.760
<v Speaker 1>think it compared to All Stars One? I guess overall? Oh,

0:01:57.760 --> 0:01:59.720
<v Speaker 1>that is a good question. I think this one of

0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:03.800
<v Speaker 1>more like a challenge. I felt like All Stars one

0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:07.440
<v Speaker 1>felt more like a gathering and we got to do challenges.

0:02:08.160 --> 0:02:13.120
<v Speaker 1>You know. It was like it really felt like a reunion.

0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:14.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, we all went there. We didn't even know

0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:16.320
<v Speaker 1>what the prize money was. We didn't even know if

0:02:16.320 --> 0:02:19.560
<v Speaker 1>there was going to be prize money. Wow, didn't you know? No,

0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:25.160
<v Speaker 1>we didn't. Maybe somethings, yeah, damn, you know. And then

0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:27.800
<v Speaker 1>he said and then we were like oh, and then

0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:29.200
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people probably at that time was like,

0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:30.959
<v Speaker 1>I probably should have took this a little bit more serious.

0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:34.160
<v Speaker 1>This isn't backyard games were about to put us through, um,

0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:36.720
<v Speaker 1>so this one felt like a challenge. I think people

0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:39.840
<v Speaker 1>knew going in that the prize was big, that they

0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:41.760
<v Speaker 1>had to take it serious, and then the rules of

0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:44.840
<v Speaker 1>the game were way different than last time. Yeah, honestly

0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:46.880
<v Speaker 1>I felt that way about you, and even coming onto

0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:50.640
<v Speaker 1>this podcast, I think that you, I mean not like

0:02:50.680 --> 0:02:53.320
<v Speaker 1>you and your and your crew King's Palace made this

0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:57.080
<v Speaker 1>season so entertaining to watch. Like, you guys were incredible,

0:02:57.120 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 1>and I think it's because you came in with that

0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:01.640
<v Speaker 1>energy and you could see the difference in you from

0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:04.040
<v Speaker 1>season one two season two. You saw in Tech two,

0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:08.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Latarian was always smashing shit like that mother friend. Yeah, yeah,

0:03:08.120 --> 0:03:09.959
<v Speaker 1>he's always I don't want to get in there with him.

0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:11.960
<v Speaker 1>But the three of you guys, you know, you really

0:03:12.240 --> 0:03:14.200
<v Speaker 1>and Melinda as well. You guys really came in with

0:03:14.200 --> 0:03:17.720
<v Speaker 1>a cool strategy and and you made it super far.

0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:19.560
<v Speaker 1>So do you feel like there was something that you

0:03:19.600 --> 0:03:22.280
<v Speaker 1>did differently to prepare for this All Stars two rather

0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:24.760
<v Speaker 1>than All Stars one? Yeah, I think there was a

0:03:24.760 --> 0:03:28.720
<v Speaker 1>few things. One was I went back and I studied

0:03:28.760 --> 0:03:34.200
<v Speaker 1>all of the champions of the challenge oh last guards. Yeah,

0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 1>So I went back and I studied them just to

0:03:36.280 --> 0:03:39.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of see what separated them from how I played

0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:41.880
<v Speaker 1>the game before. And then I also went back and

0:03:41.920 --> 0:03:44.720
<v Speaker 1>I looked at myself and I analyzed my performance, and

0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:47.560
<v Speaker 1>I say, if I would ask myself, did I give

0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:50.240
<v Speaker 1>him my all and be honest, if my answer was no,

0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:52.680
<v Speaker 1>then I need to do better. And my answer was no.

0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.760
<v Speaker 1>So I was like, you know, um, if this, if

0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:58.680
<v Speaker 1>this opportunity was taken away from me, and I looked

0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:01.320
<v Speaker 1>back and I say I didn't do the best of it,

0:04:01.360 --> 0:04:03.480
<v Speaker 1>then I would be mad at myself. So let's take

0:04:03.520 --> 0:04:08.560
<v Speaker 1>this from serious. So I got a personal trainer, I

0:04:08.600 --> 0:04:14.400
<v Speaker 1>got a nutritionalist, was doing puzzles, Uh, no drinking, no

0:04:14.520 --> 0:04:17.240
<v Speaker 1>hanging out. So I came That's I think that's the

0:04:17.360 --> 0:04:21.320
<v Speaker 1>reason why the intensity was also different, because it was passionate,

0:04:21.360 --> 0:04:24.320
<v Speaker 1>Like I came in there like very very hungry and

0:04:24.480 --> 0:04:28.440
<v Speaker 1>serious and really wanting to win. So I think, um,

0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:32.599
<v Speaker 1>you know that translated. And then the second part to

0:04:32.640 --> 0:04:34.800
<v Speaker 1>that is that I was very organic. I think a

0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:37.160
<v Speaker 1>lot of times I was always afraid of fully being

0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:41.240
<v Speaker 1>myself on camera because of you know, them putting storylines

0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:43.960
<v Speaker 1>that may not be like what happened way back with

0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:47.000
<v Speaker 1>the best situation, people think that we hooked up and stuff.

0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:48.920
<v Speaker 1>So I always wanted to show a sensor to myself,

0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:51.640
<v Speaker 1>and this time I was just one hundred percent raw

0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:54.440
<v Speaker 1>and even my family would call me black. You know what,

0:04:54.560 --> 0:04:57.080
<v Speaker 1>watching this show like, I feel like I'm actually watching

0:04:57.160 --> 0:05:01.919
<v Speaker 1>Neo Maya Wow. Yeah, so I think that was a

0:05:01.920 --> 0:05:05.160
<v Speaker 1>difference from me personally. That's nice that you gave yourself

0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:07.839
<v Speaker 1>the opportunity to be real with yourself, you know. And

0:05:07.839 --> 0:05:09.919
<v Speaker 1>I think that it does translate not just to the

0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.440
<v Speaker 1>people that know you, the people getting to know you

0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:15.039
<v Speaker 1>on All Stars too, you know, if they had miss

0:05:15.040 --> 0:05:17.240
<v Speaker 1>All Stars one or seeing you on Real World or

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:19.760
<v Speaker 1>on other challenges. You know. I think this is cool

0:05:19.760 --> 0:05:22.360
<v Speaker 1>because it gives us the opportunity to reinvent ourselves or

0:05:22.400 --> 0:05:25.800
<v Speaker 1>at least show you know, our growth. Yeah. True, but

0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:28.480
<v Speaker 1>you going into this one. I know. I see that

0:05:28.560 --> 0:05:32.040
<v Speaker 1>part of the King's Palace was on last season. Do

0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:35.000
<v Speaker 1>you think that helped to like maybe solidify the bond there?

0:05:35.160 --> 0:05:38.480
<v Speaker 1>And I guess the trust that you guys had in

0:05:38.520 --> 0:05:42.120
<v Speaker 1>your alliance, that's a good question. Yeah, I think it

0:05:42.160 --> 0:05:45.400
<v Speaker 1>did because one, me and Tech go back, like way back,

0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:48.440
<v Speaker 1>even before All Stars. So one he was my boy

0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:52.000
<v Speaker 1>and my heart was broken when I went against him,

0:05:52.120 --> 0:05:56.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, and All Stars one. And I think a

0:05:56.200 --> 0:06:04.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of fans too, you know those like yeah, yeah,

0:06:04.320 --> 0:06:06.400
<v Speaker 1>it was so tough. And then you know, like a

0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:10.080
<v Speaker 1>lot of the fans were contact and I didn't. I

0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:12.440
<v Speaker 1>didn't understand this from from their point of view, but

0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:14.880
<v Speaker 1>they was like, man, it's it's hard to seeing, you know,

0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:18.279
<v Speaker 1>two brothers go against each other. And from me, I'm

0:06:18.279 --> 0:06:20.840
<v Speaker 1>just sitting there like I'm just going against somebody who

0:06:20.920 --> 0:06:23.000
<v Speaker 1>was talking shit, you know, like I'm not looking at

0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:26.920
<v Speaker 1>it like that. This is a competition. Whatever color they are,

0:06:26.960 --> 0:06:30.200
<v Speaker 1>I would have probably chose that person. It doesn't matter, um,

0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:32.479
<v Speaker 1>But the fans thought that way. So I had to

0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:35.920
<v Speaker 1>think bigger than myself this time going in and and

0:06:35.960 --> 0:06:39.160
<v Speaker 1>really try to be sensitive to like the fans and

0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:41.400
<v Speaker 1>what it is that they don't get to see often.

0:06:41.440 --> 0:06:46.159
<v Speaker 1>And it's just camaraderie, you know, um, and I wanted

0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:47.760
<v Speaker 1>to bring that and it was just like you know

0:06:47.839 --> 0:06:50.840
<v Speaker 1>what the money set aside, I'm gonna ride for y'all

0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:53.320
<v Speaker 1>and that's that's just gonna be the theme for me

0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:56.400
<v Speaker 1>this season. Yeah, and you could see that, I think,

0:06:56.440 --> 0:06:58.920
<v Speaker 1>like obviously, like we've just said, the big difference between

0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:01.320
<v Speaker 1>the two seasons was the formation of this King's Palace.

0:07:01.800 --> 0:07:03.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you guys got a theme song and everything.

0:07:03.600 --> 0:07:09.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, people are thinking that it was really powerful

0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:11.880
<v Speaker 1>to watch, and would you just mind walking us through

0:07:11.920 --> 0:07:14.560
<v Speaker 1>what it was like to create that alliance, any conversations

0:07:14.600 --> 0:07:17.440
<v Speaker 1>that maybe we didn't see on camera, and how it

0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:21.960
<v Speaker 1>was truly solidified for the for the viewers. Yeah, definitely.

0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:24.679
<v Speaker 1>It's funny because we didn't go in there with anything

0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:29.119
<v Speaker 1>at all. Kind of happened organically and what you start

0:07:29.120 --> 0:07:32.560
<v Speaker 1>to kind of see conversations form in the house and stuff,

0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:34.600
<v Speaker 1>and if you're really paying attention, you can kind of

0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:37.880
<v Speaker 1>see what alliances and who's watching, who's back. Very early on,

0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:41.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, cards get revealed. So seeing that, I noticed

0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:46.160
<v Speaker 1>that we were already on the outside, you know. So

0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:49.640
<v Speaker 1>this was going to be a typical challenge for people

0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:54.000
<v Speaker 1>like us who don't really don't really play the political game,

0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:57.400
<v Speaker 1>where we're just there up until we're either used to

0:07:57.480 --> 0:08:00.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of take somebody out or we're taking out But

0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:03.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, never, we're never power positions in the game.

0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:06.480
<v Speaker 1>So I started to notice that I pulled them to

0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:07.920
<v Speaker 1>the side, and I was like, look, we have to

0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:10.040
<v Speaker 1>show that we could play a political game as well.

0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:12.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, Um, it's bigger than us just coming in

0:08:12.800 --> 0:08:14.840
<v Speaker 1>here and just you know, in the great words of

0:08:14.920 --> 0:08:19.400
<v Speaker 1>Letarian putting our hands on people. You know, you know

0:08:19.480 --> 0:08:22.080
<v Speaker 1>this this game is much bigger than that. And I

0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:24.280
<v Speaker 1>think that if we play that side of the game too,

0:08:24.360 --> 0:08:27.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, we can do very well. So let's let's

0:08:27.480 --> 0:08:30.640
<v Speaker 1>start playing this political game and not letting what always

0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:35.160
<v Speaker 1>happens happen this time. Yeah. That's a tough space to

0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:37.680
<v Speaker 1>be in. I mean I get it, you know, coming

0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:40.600
<v Speaker 1>for me, I get it. It's really hard to like

0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:43.920
<v Speaker 1>play the game but then like play the game of

0:08:43.960 --> 0:08:47.319
<v Speaker 1>life too, and then be representative of life where you're

0:08:47.360 --> 0:08:50.280
<v Speaker 1>trying to play the game. I mean, it's it's just

0:08:50.440 --> 0:08:52.920
<v Speaker 1>I think it's more complicated than people expect for all

0:08:52.960 --> 0:08:55.200
<v Speaker 1>of us to touch on all of the things that

0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:58.160
<v Speaker 1>are important in the game and in life and be

0:08:58.280 --> 0:09:01.360
<v Speaker 1>representative of that. So I commend you for putting it together.

0:09:01.360 --> 0:09:05.480
<v Speaker 1>I think that it shows people that even when you

0:09:05.480 --> 0:09:07.360
<v Speaker 1>are on the outside you can come together and be

0:09:07.440 --> 0:09:11.559
<v Speaker 1>strong and powerful and loud and in your face with

0:09:11.720 --> 0:09:14.360
<v Speaker 1>it and still be successful. You know, because I think

0:09:14.400 --> 0:09:18.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot of these alliances in the past, or even

0:09:18.120 --> 0:09:20.480
<v Speaker 1>friendships rather because I mean, you guys were like family.

0:09:20.520 --> 0:09:25.640
<v Speaker 1>It was more than just an alliance are quiet and sneaky.

0:09:26.240 --> 0:09:31.160
<v Speaker 1>Do you think that you guys being that confident and

0:09:31.240 --> 0:09:33.520
<v Speaker 1>that loud and that in your face like this is

0:09:33.640 --> 0:09:36.640
<v Speaker 1>us and you got you gotta take the kings and

0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:38.760
<v Speaker 1>a queen out of the game if you want to

0:09:38.800 --> 0:09:41.520
<v Speaker 1>get far? Do you think it was advantageous for you

0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:45.120
<v Speaker 1>to be as confident as you guys were. You know? Um,

0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:48.320
<v Speaker 1>I think that as a viewer, I can I can

0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:51.920
<v Speaker 1>see that it can come off as as as confidence,

0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:56.160
<v Speaker 1>but I think for us it was coming off more

0:09:56.200 --> 0:10:02.280
<v Speaker 1>so of passion and appreciation for being in a position

0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:06.400
<v Speaker 1>that we were of underdogs. And it wasn't the bottom

0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:09.360
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't the bottom floor versus the top floor. It

0:10:09.440 --> 0:10:13.360
<v Speaker 1>was the house versus our room, and normally in those

0:10:13.440 --> 0:10:18.520
<v Speaker 1>situations we fall quickly. If the house wants something to go,

0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:21.120
<v Speaker 1>is going to go. So I think for us it

0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:24.040
<v Speaker 1>was appreciation that every single time shots were taken normally

0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:26.839
<v Speaker 1>and each of our Challenge careers. I think we can

0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:29.360
<v Speaker 1>all say that when that's happened, we always fall viacom

0:10:29.360 --> 0:10:31.720
<v Speaker 1>to it. At this time, we were able to take them,

0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:34.880
<v Speaker 1>so we were appreciative to still be there every single day.

0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:37.800
<v Speaker 1>Every single day, it was like, Yo, we're still here.

0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:40.679
<v Speaker 1>That's why they save the Palace thing was so powerful

0:10:40.679 --> 0:10:43.680
<v Speaker 1>because it was like, we're still here. So what I

0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:45.920
<v Speaker 1>wanted to do is I wanted to say, look, let

0:10:45.920 --> 0:10:48.800
<v Speaker 1>them play that sneaky game. That's the typical challenge game.

0:10:48.800 --> 0:10:50.720
<v Speaker 1>And what happens on the challenges is if you don't

0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:53.640
<v Speaker 1>come on and conform to that, then you're automatically an

0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:56.559
<v Speaker 1>nowcasting and your chances of making it to the end fall.

0:10:56.920 --> 0:10:59.520
<v Speaker 1>So since the lines were drawn, let's be loud about it.

0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:02.080
<v Speaker 1>Let's play completely different game. They want to be sneaky

0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:05.439
<v Speaker 1>and backstab, Let's be loud and loyal, you know. Let's

0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:09.480
<v Speaker 1>um let's bring that old nineties, nineties New York vibe

0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:11.640
<v Speaker 1>to the thing where it's like, this is my crew,

0:11:11.679 --> 0:11:14.240
<v Speaker 1>this is your crew. We don't mess with y'all anytime

0:11:14.280 --> 0:11:16.040
<v Speaker 1>we see each other in the subway, either we're gonna

0:11:16.040 --> 0:11:18.040
<v Speaker 1>break Dan's fight. You know what I mean or you know,

0:11:19.600 --> 0:11:21.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, like this is us and and since we're

0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:23.840
<v Speaker 1>all old school, we come from that era anyway, so

0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:26.880
<v Speaker 1>that comes natural for us. That's that's just how we are.

0:11:26.960 --> 0:11:30.000
<v Speaker 1>So like, you know, I've been yelling my cousins, we

0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:32.280
<v Speaker 1>got a crew called SBC. I've been yelling that on

0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:35.400
<v Speaker 1>all everything forever. So it's like you always be loud

0:11:35.440 --> 0:11:38.400
<v Speaker 1>about about who you are and you never get on

0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:41.600
<v Speaker 1>your knees for anybody. Yeah, do you do you think

0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:44.679
<v Speaker 1>that gave you more to fight for because you had

0:11:44.840 --> 0:11:48.920
<v Speaker 1>such a such a loyal and strong like backing, like

0:11:49.360 --> 0:11:53.840
<v Speaker 1>so much like strengthen that that's what it looked like.

0:11:54.040 --> 0:11:56.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean like when you went into elimination, were you

0:11:56.640 --> 0:12:00.360
<v Speaker 1>fighting for them too oh so much? And when I

0:12:00.400 --> 0:12:03.800
<v Speaker 1>went into elimination, you know, um, I look up and

0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:07.000
<v Speaker 1>I see Lttarium and I see tech And for one

0:12:07.040 --> 0:12:09.520
<v Speaker 1>of the one of the first times in the challenge,

0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:12.080
<v Speaker 1>I actually felt like there was even two people who

0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:15.320
<v Speaker 1>wanted me in the house. And you know, when um,

0:12:15.360 --> 0:12:17.680
<v Speaker 1>you get up there and you you have everyone saying

0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:20.560
<v Speaker 1>your name, like, it's hard not to take it personal

0:12:20.640 --> 0:12:23.400
<v Speaker 1>because we're people, and you know, some emotional needs are

0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:25.120
<v Speaker 1>friends and they're saying our name to put us in.

0:12:25.360 --> 0:12:27.960
<v Speaker 1>It's hard not to think that, you know. They it's

0:12:28.000 --> 0:12:30.320
<v Speaker 1>hard to it's hard to look past that, you know.

0:12:30.400 --> 0:12:37.960
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, um, so when you know when when when

0:12:38.360 --> 0:12:41.960
<v Speaker 1>Lttarium was in elimination, I was an elimination, you know,

0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:44.200
<v Speaker 1>I kept my bags packed. I never unpacked them. I'm

0:12:44.280 --> 0:12:46.280
<v Speaker 1>keeping them packed. So when you packed, you see my

0:12:46.320 --> 0:12:48.360
<v Speaker 1>bags are packed. Look, we're all going into this. I'm

0:12:48.360 --> 0:12:50.079
<v Speaker 1>sitting in the room with you while you get ready.

0:12:50.280 --> 0:12:52.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm not leaving this room. I'm right by your side,

0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:56.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'm sharing for you the loudest. So, um,

0:12:56.480 --> 0:12:59.240
<v Speaker 1>it was a unit and that that was a strength,

0:12:59.280 --> 0:13:01.800
<v Speaker 1>and it was bigger than me. So whenever something's bigger

0:13:01.800 --> 0:13:05.160
<v Speaker 1>than you, you can find strength outside of you, you know. Yeah,

0:13:05.200 --> 0:13:07.200
<v Speaker 1>And you know what, everybody listens to this on the

0:13:07.240 --> 0:13:09.480
<v Speaker 1>other show because they need some of this. I mean,

0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:13.080
<v Speaker 1>it's just it's just weird. How there isn't that loyalty.

0:13:13.440 --> 0:13:15.840
<v Speaker 1>There isn't. There isn't. And you know you saw early

0:13:15.920 --> 0:13:18.080
<v Speaker 1>on with Steve when he went up against Tech and

0:13:18.120 --> 0:13:19.680
<v Speaker 1>then you know, you guys, I think it even brought

0:13:19.720 --> 0:13:22.360
<v Speaker 1>you guys closer together. But I want to focus on

0:13:22.400 --> 0:13:24.280
<v Speaker 1>another relationship that you had in the house because you

0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:26.640
<v Speaker 1>have Melinda, Like you guys make it to the final

0:13:26.960 --> 0:13:29.400
<v Speaker 1>You guys had this whole experience together from the beginning

0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:31.439
<v Speaker 1>all the way to the end. She obviously hurts her ankle.

0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:35.160
<v Speaker 1>You guys are so supportive of each other. I mean,

0:13:35.360 --> 0:13:37.920
<v Speaker 1>even seeing both of your Instagram posts, it's like you

0:13:38.160 --> 0:13:40.520
<v Speaker 1>could just see, like the love is so real, it's

0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:43.559
<v Speaker 1>so deep, it's it's it's a friendship that's gonna last forever.

0:13:43.960 --> 0:13:45.760
<v Speaker 1>And so how was it like to reunite with her?

0:13:45.960 --> 0:13:49.320
<v Speaker 1>She was your original cast mate in Austin and real world,

0:13:49.360 --> 0:13:50.719
<v Speaker 1>So what was it like to reunite with her and

0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:53.680
<v Speaker 1>work with her on this challenge? You know, I'm gonna

0:13:53.679 --> 0:13:55.800
<v Speaker 1>be honest with you. I think the biggest win for

0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:59.839
<v Speaker 1>me was getting that bond back with her. That's so funny,

0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:04.920
<v Speaker 1>cute man, know, like that was we because we always

0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:06.760
<v Speaker 1>knew that we had that love for each other, but

0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:09.400
<v Speaker 1>we didn't talk that much. You know, life happens when

0:14:09.400 --> 0:14:11.840
<v Speaker 1>you're older and you know you're in different parts of

0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:14.160
<v Speaker 1>the world and people are married and there's kids involved

0:14:14.200 --> 0:14:16.240
<v Speaker 1>in stuff. So we know what happens when you hit

0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:18.600
<v Speaker 1>your thirties we're not as close as we want to

0:14:18.640 --> 0:14:21.360
<v Speaker 1>be in our hearts. So having us come together and

0:14:21.400 --> 0:14:24.600
<v Speaker 1>share a room, that that bond, you know, came back

0:14:24.640 --> 0:14:26.200
<v Speaker 1>and to me, that was the one because now we

0:14:26.240 --> 0:14:28.120
<v Speaker 1>talk every other day. I know what's going on in

0:14:28.160 --> 0:14:30.520
<v Speaker 1>her life, you know. Um, I know what's going on

0:14:30.600 --> 0:14:34.080
<v Speaker 1>with Cam then um. And it's it's one of the

0:14:34.120 --> 0:14:36.400
<v Speaker 1>best things that you can ask for because at our

0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:38.600
<v Speaker 1>age we don't really get to, you know, get those

0:14:38.640 --> 0:14:42.680
<v Speaker 1>solid bonds anymore, you know, and to get that it's uh,

0:14:42.720 --> 0:14:47.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, that's that's that's better than gold. Yeah. Melinda,

0:14:47.360 --> 0:14:49.160
<v Speaker 1>Melinda is a real one too. We just had her

0:14:49.160 --> 0:14:53.000
<v Speaker 1>on our love her. She is absolutely it's so funny.

0:14:53.080 --> 0:14:55.520
<v Speaker 1>I love her. Shout out to Melinda. Absolutely. And and

0:14:55.800 --> 0:14:57.880

0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:19.080
<v Speaker 1>it I feel That's That's what I've been working on

0:15:19.120 --> 0:15:21.960
<v Speaker 1>with as you know that there's never ever a point

0:15:22.000 --> 0:15:24.320
<v Speaker 1>in my life where I could hate you. Um, we go,

0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:28.160
<v Speaker 1>we go back since my first challenge, and there's there's

0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:30.760
<v Speaker 1>nothing that you could do, Like you could anybody could

0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:32.840
<v Speaker 1>do stuff to me in the game, and once the

0:15:32.880 --> 0:15:35.840
<v Speaker 1>game is done, I don't care. Yeah, like that's the game.

0:15:35.960 --> 0:15:38.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't care. Like if we were in the streets,

0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:42.520
<v Speaker 1>I got you, you know, you know, like if you

0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:45.240

0:15:47.920 --> 0:15:51.720
<v Speaker 1>really matters to me, exactly exactly. I got your back.

0:15:51.760 --> 0:15:53.720
<v Speaker 1>You call me and say somebody doing something wrong, you

0:15:53.760 --> 0:15:56.120
<v Speaker 1>point him out. He's done you know what I mean, Like,

0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:11.360
<v Speaker 1>hard to turn on and off on the challenges. And

0:16:11.480 --> 0:16:13.400
<v Speaker 1>I think this season, you know, we got to see

0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:16.200
<v Speaker 1>that from me. Yeah, and like you said, it's it's

0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:18.880
<v Speaker 1>out of passion. But you look, I didn't know your scorpio.

0:16:18.960 --> 0:16:21.120
<v Speaker 1>Now it's all making so much sense, and I'm like, uh,

0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:24.320
<v Speaker 1>I like that they gotta smell him too. He smells amazing.

0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:27.680
<v Speaker 1>He's just always like a passionate lover. If you know

0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:31.080
<v Speaker 1>what that's if I could just bottle passionate, passionate lover.

0:16:31.240 --> 0:16:37.040
<v Speaker 1>Vegan sent, Oh, I'm sure he does. He is the

0:16:37.040 --> 0:16:39.000
<v Speaker 1>best smelling guy on the challenge. I will say, I'm

0:16:39.040 --> 0:16:42.360
<v Speaker 1>sure he smells great. I'm sure that nobody smelled great

0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:44.720
<v Speaker 1>during that final. We had John Ay and m Jahn

0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:47.800
<v Speaker 1>to discuss the final. They said it was brutal and

0:16:47.920 --> 0:16:49.880
<v Speaker 1>honestly it looked harder than the final that we just

0:16:49.920 --> 0:16:51.920
<v Speaker 1>did on Spiesies and Allies. I just want to know

0:16:52.360 --> 0:16:54.640
<v Speaker 1>what was the most difficult part of the final for you?

0:16:55.320 --> 0:17:01.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh Man, good question. I think, Um, the bike ride

0:17:02.040 --> 0:17:06.679
<v Speaker 1>yea for me personally because we did it last so

0:17:07.280 --> 0:17:10.800
<v Speaker 1>there was there was one puzzle piece that mug was

0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:15.640
<v Speaker 1>like Tenley and you're riding it in sand and um,

0:17:15.680 --> 0:17:18.280
<v Speaker 1>you know it's crazy because me and Melinda finally get

0:17:18.320 --> 0:17:21.040
<v Speaker 1>there and we both just get off our bikes and collapse,

0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:23.760
<v Speaker 1>and I think everybody had that moment where You're like, um,

0:17:23.840 --> 0:17:25.920
<v Speaker 1>how are we going to get through this? And I'm

0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:29.800
<v Speaker 1>cramping her ankle swollen. Um, So we like take a breather,

0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:32.600
<v Speaker 1>and it's funny. I'm like, I started doing like some

0:17:32.680 --> 0:17:36.480
<v Speaker 1>reiky honor and then um, we get up and then

0:17:36.600 --> 0:17:40.000
<v Speaker 1>we go and um we pushed through. But to me,

0:17:40.119 --> 0:17:42.080
<v Speaker 1>that was that was the point where I was like, damn,

0:17:42.119 --> 0:17:45.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't That was almost close to a breaking point

0:17:45.240 --> 0:17:50.639
<v Speaker 1>for me. But in the heat, So those two things,

0:17:48.720 --> 0:17:58.080
<v Speaker 1>yeah out oh man. To be honest, you know, um,

0:17:58.119 --> 0:18:00.080
<v Speaker 1>I think the one thing that saved us was not

0:18:00.160 --> 0:18:02.840
<v Speaker 1>heaving hills. You know, it was pretty flat, so I

0:18:02.840 --> 0:18:04.680
<v Speaker 1>think I think that helped. If there was hills, the

0:18:04.880 --> 0:18:11.199
<v Speaker 1>sand tethered together, true dehydrated weight was broken. Ankle was

0:18:11.240 --> 0:18:15.919
<v Speaker 1>all it was all season two? Like, was it relatively

0:18:15.960 --> 0:18:18.879
<v Speaker 1>that hot the whole time? Yes, So I think you've

0:18:18.920 --> 0:18:22.760
<v Speaker 1>become acclimated to that then, like the change, and we've

0:18:22.760 --> 0:18:24.920
<v Speaker 1>seen it on other challenges where like the weather's fine

0:18:24.920 --> 0:18:26.880
<v Speaker 1>and then all of a sudden they're in Croatia Prague

0:18:27.080 --> 0:18:29.680
<v Speaker 1>and then it's like one hundred degrees. Yeah, So I'm

0:18:29.720 --> 0:18:32.600
<v Speaker 1>glad that everybody stuck with it as much as they could,

0:18:32.800 --> 0:18:35.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, but even being sleep deprived like that, Yeah,

0:18:36.720 --> 0:18:40.160
<v Speaker 1>this final started off with sleep deprivation like this, that's

0:18:40.280 --> 0:18:42.920
<v Speaker 1>in my opinion, the hardest thing to ever endure in

0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:46.040
<v Speaker 1>a final. It's sleep deprivation. Like I cried staying up,

0:18:46.960 --> 0:18:49.480
<v Speaker 1>So you know what is I cried? So you start

0:18:49.560 --> 0:18:51.560
<v Speaker 1>with it, You start with it. I mean, like, honestly,

0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:54.760
<v Speaker 1>watching this this final makes me nervous because you know,

0:18:54.840 --> 0:18:57.359
<v Speaker 1>like everyone says All Stars, you know, they it's supposed

0:18:57.359 --> 0:19:00.440
<v Speaker 1>to be this like more fun, more reunion type of show.

0:19:00.480 --> 0:19:04.080
<v Speaker 1>It's not. That's the same. You're doing the same even harder.

0:19:04.119 --> 0:19:07.239
<v Speaker 1>This final looked way harder. So, um, I mean, you

0:19:07.280 --> 0:19:09.520
<v Speaker 1>guys were definitely I think one of the biggest threats

0:19:09.520 --> 0:19:11.959
<v Speaker 1>going into the game. Who did you think? Who did

0:19:11.960 --> 0:19:13.320
<v Speaker 1>you and Melinda think were is going to be your

0:19:13.359 --> 0:19:17.159
<v Speaker 1>biggest threat? I think that we were split. Um, I

0:19:17.240 --> 0:19:20.080
<v Speaker 1>think that Melinda thought Durrell and Janelle would be our

0:19:20.080 --> 0:19:22.879
<v Speaker 1>biggest threat, and to me, I thought that, um, m

0:19:22.960 --> 0:19:25.720
<v Speaker 1>J and John A would be our biggest threat. What

0:19:25.880 --> 0:19:29.720
<v Speaker 1>was the difference for you? For me, I knew I

0:19:29.800 --> 0:19:32.600
<v Speaker 1>knew John Ay, and I knew how well she had

0:19:32.640 --> 0:19:36.480
<v Speaker 1>improved and how bad she wanted it. And to me,

0:19:37.240 --> 0:19:40.200
<v Speaker 1>like when I looked at the teams, I was just

0:19:40.280 --> 0:19:43.960
<v Speaker 1>like m J could carry John Ay if he if

0:19:44.000 --> 0:19:46.600
<v Speaker 1>he needed to, but I don't know. I don't know

0:19:46.720 --> 0:19:49.520
<v Speaker 1>if Durrelle could carry Janelle up at hill because their

0:19:49.560 --> 0:19:52.040
<v Speaker 1>heights are similar, Like, I know he could, but probably

0:19:52.080 --> 0:19:54.000
<v Speaker 1>not as long as m J could carry john Ay.

0:19:54.640 --> 0:19:56.320
<v Speaker 1>So those are the things I was looking at. And

0:19:56.359 --> 0:19:58.720
<v Speaker 1>then I'm looking at puzzles, and I know Johnny's good

0:19:58.720 --> 0:20:00.600
<v Speaker 1>at puzzles. And then I was looking at how they

0:20:00.680 --> 0:20:03.640
<v Speaker 1>performed on the Mini final. So like this whole challenge,

0:20:03.640 --> 0:20:06.800
<v Speaker 1>I didn't sleep. I'm calculating every single move the whole time.

0:20:06.840 --> 0:20:09.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sleeping at all, So every move that's happening

0:20:09.960 --> 0:20:12.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking about. So to me, they were a little

0:20:12.480 --> 0:20:16.560
<v Speaker 1>bit tougher. And then Tech also felt that Durrell and

0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:19.280
<v Speaker 1>Janelle were a tougher team, and so did Iana, so

0:20:19.760 --> 0:20:22.680
<v Speaker 1>it leaned that way. But I was leaning towards m

0:20:22.760 --> 0:20:26.280
<v Speaker 1>J john because they were they were strong. Yeah, but

0:20:26.359 --> 0:20:30.560
<v Speaker 1>you saved them from the final elimination. I did. And

0:20:30.680 --> 0:20:33.960
<v Speaker 1>there was a couple of things that went into that. One.

0:20:34.040 --> 0:20:36.520
<v Speaker 1>I wanted it to be a group decision to um,

0:20:36.840 --> 0:20:40.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, Johnny's like an actual friend, you know, outside

0:20:40.520 --> 0:20:43.399
<v Speaker 1>of that. So, like I said, I wanted to not

0:20:43.520 --> 0:20:46.359
<v Speaker 1>play this game with my heart but it's still hard

0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:48.520
<v Speaker 1>for me being a scorpio. My heart is there and

0:20:48.560 --> 0:20:50.840
<v Speaker 1>I play with it, and it's very hard for me

0:20:50.880 --> 0:20:53.360
<v Speaker 1>to turn it on and off like that. So there

0:20:53.400 --> 0:20:55.800
<v Speaker 1>was a lot of factors that went into and I

0:20:55.840 --> 0:20:58.280
<v Speaker 1>have so much love for john A and her family

0:20:58.359 --> 0:21:01.359
<v Speaker 1>that you know, that kind of helped pushed it the

0:21:01.400 --> 0:21:03.760
<v Speaker 1>other way, even though it was a tough decision to make. No,

0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:05.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean, when you get deep in the game, like

0:21:05.880 --> 0:21:09.960
<v Speaker 1>and you're at that point it's your rock and hard place, like,

0:21:10.000 --> 0:21:12.080
<v Speaker 1>it's so difficult to make a decision and you just

0:21:12.119 --> 0:21:13.639
<v Speaker 1>have to trust that you're doing the best thing that

0:21:13.680 --> 0:21:16.520
<v Speaker 1>you can. If you could go back in time now

0:21:16.560 --> 0:21:18.000
<v Speaker 1>that you know the outcome, now that you know that

0:21:18.240 --> 0:21:22.840
<v Speaker 1>they they won, would you have reconsidered that move? Uh,

0:21:24.280 --> 0:21:28.000
<v Speaker 1>you know that's um, that's Monday quarterback, you know. Yeah,

0:21:28.119 --> 0:21:30.959
<v Speaker 1>and and and that's hindsight. And it happened exactly how

0:21:31.000 --> 0:21:34.640
<v Speaker 1>it was supposed to happen. And they won based off

0:21:34.640 --> 0:21:36.520
<v Speaker 1>of all the rules that all of us were given.

0:21:36.880 --> 0:21:39.359
<v Speaker 1>And they won fair and square based off all the rules.

0:21:39.400 --> 0:21:45.600
<v Speaker 1>So they didn't quit, and you know, they deserved that win. So, um,

0:21:45.680 --> 0:21:48.879
<v Speaker 1>I look at it like there were other wins that

0:21:48.920 --> 0:21:51.200
<v Speaker 1>I personally was supposed to take away from that, And

0:21:51.280 --> 0:21:54.199
<v Speaker 1>even though in my mind I wanted the money, the

0:21:54.320 --> 0:21:57.160
<v Speaker 1>universe had other wins for me. So I just took

0:21:57.160 --> 0:22:00.840
<v Speaker 1>those and I'm appreciative of exactly how it happened, and

0:22:00.880 --> 0:22:02.920
<v Speaker 1>I looked back like it happened exactly how it was

0:22:02.960 --> 0:22:13.959
<v Speaker 1>supposed to. Was there any other moments from this season

0:22:14.000 --> 0:22:17.000
<v Speaker 1>that you felt like you were pushed to your limit

0:22:17.119 --> 0:22:21.800
<v Speaker 1>physically or emotionally prior to the final hmm man, great question.

0:22:22.080 --> 0:22:26.199
<v Speaker 1>You know, I think maybe definitely emotionally. You know, like

0:22:26.359 --> 0:22:30.800
<v Speaker 1>so many times emotionally, if we go back pretty much

0:22:31.080 --> 0:22:37.600
<v Speaker 1>after the Literarian and Tyler elimination, I was in every

0:22:37.600 --> 0:22:42.160
<v Speaker 1>single time, so voted in not in because the performance

0:22:42.160 --> 0:22:45.280
<v Speaker 1>were voted in. So you know, you had to sit

0:22:45.359 --> 0:22:47.920
<v Speaker 1>up there and you had to have your friends look

0:22:48.000 --> 0:22:49.639
<v Speaker 1>you in the face and you're like, yep, me and

0:22:49.720 --> 0:22:54.080
<v Speaker 1>might wunt you in. So emotionally that one, um, it

0:22:54.160 --> 0:22:55.840
<v Speaker 1>was a roller coaster for me. And then there was

0:22:55.880 --> 0:22:58.560
<v Speaker 1>a conversation that me and Durell had one time he

0:22:58.680 --> 0:22:59.720
<v Speaker 1>was like, just so you know, I'm not going to

0:22:59.840 --> 0:23:02.360
<v Speaker 1>vote for you up there. Uh, And then we go

0:23:02.520 --> 0:23:06.560
<v Speaker 1>up there and he says my name and I was like, motherfuck. So,

0:23:06.960 --> 0:23:08.399
<v Speaker 1>you know, there's a lot of times where I had

0:23:08.400 --> 0:23:11.080
<v Speaker 1>to keep reminding myself that it's just a game. It's

0:23:11.160 --> 0:23:14.840
<v Speaker 1>just a game. Um, so I you know, uh, I

0:23:14.880 --> 0:23:16.520
<v Speaker 1>just started having fun with it. I would just go

0:23:16.600 --> 0:23:18.480
<v Speaker 1>up there and just start saying jokes the whole time.

0:23:18.960 --> 0:23:22.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, um, look at people cross side and stuff

0:23:22.040 --> 0:23:25.040
<v Speaker 1>while they were saying my name. I just go up

0:23:25.080 --> 0:23:26.960
<v Speaker 1>there and just and just have fun with it and

0:23:26.960 --> 0:23:30.000
<v Speaker 1>then try to take that into an elimination. Yeah, it

0:23:30.040 --> 0:23:32.200
<v Speaker 1>feels like it's your job title. Like we've been here before.

0:23:32.400 --> 0:23:35.040
<v Speaker 1>Putt into elimination and put into elimination. It's nothing to you.

0:23:35.640 --> 0:23:36.919
<v Speaker 1>But when you get to do it a lot, you

0:23:36.960 --> 0:23:40.840
<v Speaker 1>start to like you start to claim it, like, oh

0:23:40.920 --> 0:23:44.480
<v Speaker 1>I gotta just do two challenges today. That's cool. But

0:23:44.560 --> 0:23:47.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's so that's so powerful, Like think about

0:23:47.119 --> 0:23:49.480
<v Speaker 1>it's rewarding at the end when you're in that final

0:23:49.520 --> 0:23:53.400
<v Speaker 1>and you're like, I thought I really thought to get here. Yeah,

0:23:53.400 --> 0:23:59.720
<v Speaker 1>Like it definitely different way that attitude translates into regular

0:23:59.760 --> 0:24:01.760
<v Speaker 1>life in so many different ways. It's like once you

0:24:01.840 --> 0:24:05.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of overcome the like being attacked and owning where

0:24:05.680 --> 0:24:07.679
<v Speaker 1>you are and owning what you have to do. Like

0:24:07.720 --> 0:24:09.359
<v Speaker 1>you said, when you learn how to make jokes about

0:24:09.359 --> 0:24:11.080
<v Speaker 1>that shit, I mean, it's it's game changing. No one

0:24:11.080 --> 0:24:14.639
<v Speaker 1>can take that from you. Now you're unbeatable, Like you

0:24:14.640 --> 0:24:18.399
<v Speaker 1>can't bring the spirit. Yeah, it's it's a superpower. And

0:24:18.600 --> 0:24:22.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's a lot of times we think that

0:24:22.400 --> 0:24:24.679
<v Speaker 1>we want life to get easier, but in reality, we

0:24:24.680 --> 0:24:26.840
<v Speaker 1>don't want life to get easier. We just want better

0:24:26.840 --> 0:24:29.959
<v Speaker 1>tools to deal with life. And that's really what it

0:24:29.960 --> 0:24:33.080
<v Speaker 1>comes yea. And all of those things that we go

0:24:33.119 --> 0:24:36.240
<v Speaker 1>through gives us the tools because we know we've been

0:24:36.280 --> 0:24:38.760
<v Speaker 1>here before. So now I've had a bunch of people

0:24:38.760 --> 0:24:40.520
<v Speaker 1>saying my names. Now on the second time I'm going

0:24:40.560 --> 0:24:42.119
<v Speaker 1>through it, I have the strength and I have a

0:24:42.119 --> 0:24:45.640
<v Speaker 1>little bit more power in my armor because this I've

0:24:45.680 --> 0:24:47.240
<v Speaker 1>gone through and this is how I handle it. So

0:24:47.320 --> 0:24:48.840
<v Speaker 1>this is how I handle it this time. But I

0:24:48.840 --> 0:24:52.160
<v Speaker 1>can actually do it better because I learned from that one.

0:24:52.240 --> 0:24:54.600
<v Speaker 1>And this is what I'm taking away. So when we

0:24:54.640 --> 0:24:57.480
<v Speaker 1>really look at life just being a bunch of experiences

0:24:57.520 --> 0:25:00.720
<v Speaker 1>that are meant just to help us learn, and then

0:25:00.840 --> 0:25:03.800
<v Speaker 1>you kind of you kind of take away the power

0:25:03.960 --> 0:25:06.840
<v Speaker 1>of it controlling our emotions, because at the end of

0:25:06.840 --> 0:25:09.119
<v Speaker 1>the day, if all of these external things can control

0:25:09.160 --> 0:25:13.359
<v Speaker 1>your emotions, that's that's technically the definition of hell, because

0:25:13.359 --> 0:25:18.679
<v Speaker 1>you'll never find happiness when you're writing this book and

0:25:19.200 --> 0:25:22.840
<v Speaker 1>with it, the deluxe book of poems. Yeah, when does

0:25:22.880 --> 0:25:26.480
<v Speaker 1>this give us a high coup? It's coming, It's coming,

0:25:26.880 --> 0:25:31.679
<v Speaker 1>It's coming, it's coming. You know, I got you. I'm

0:25:31.720 --> 0:25:33.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna work on. I think this is a good time.

0:25:33.359 --> 0:25:36.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, before, back when I was on like the

0:25:36.080 --> 0:25:37.840
<v Speaker 1>Duel two and stuff, it was a little bit it

0:25:37.880 --> 0:25:39.399
<v Speaker 1>was a little bit weird at the time. But I

0:25:39.400 --> 0:25:41.560
<v Speaker 1>think now we've come to a place, you know, and

0:25:41.600 --> 0:25:44.240
<v Speaker 1>I had the incense and all that and right in

0:25:44.280 --> 0:25:47.560
<v Speaker 1>the mantras and you know, meditatement stuff. It was, it

0:25:47.600 --> 0:25:49.879
<v Speaker 1>was it was definitely ahead of its time, you know.

0:25:50.520 --> 0:25:55.320
<v Speaker 1>And um, and now it's full circle. So I'm thankful

0:25:55.359 --> 0:25:58.000
<v Speaker 1>that the platform still even shows it because I think

0:25:58.040 --> 0:25:59.600
<v Speaker 1>that now this is the time in life when we

0:25:59.640 --> 0:26:03.080
<v Speaker 1>need to be because those tools are are very helpful.

0:26:03.080 --> 0:26:04.680
<v Speaker 1>When you're sitting inside of your house and you got

0:26:04.680 --> 0:26:07.440
<v Speaker 1>a quarantine for ten days, and you know, you got

0:26:07.440 --> 0:26:10.879
<v Speaker 1>that voice that you've been avoiding through distractions. Now it's loud,

0:26:10.920 --> 0:26:12.879
<v Speaker 1>and you got to know the difference between self and

0:26:12.920 --> 0:26:14.800
<v Speaker 1>the ego. And you know, once you start to have

0:26:14.880 --> 0:26:16.840
<v Speaker 1>those tools, you know it's Um, these are the times

0:26:16.880 --> 0:26:21.240
<v Speaker 1>I think that they're most useful. Um. I mean clearly,

0:26:21.280 --> 0:26:24.080
<v Speaker 1>if you're doing raky in the middle of a final, right,

0:26:25.400 --> 0:26:30.199
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, is gonna have to learn put in

0:26:30.200 --> 0:26:41.760
<v Speaker 1>the notebook tour learn. You know I predicted Casey's pregnancy, right, No, okay, So, um,

0:26:42.240 --> 0:26:50.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing raky on John A, Melinda, Um, Casey, and Janelle. Uh.

0:26:50.560 --> 0:26:52.520
<v Speaker 1>One day in the room, the cameras were down. I

0:26:52.520 --> 0:26:54.760
<v Speaker 1>think we had lost a c and some lights, so

0:26:54.800 --> 0:26:57.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing raking on them. Then I do Casey and

0:26:57.480 --> 0:27:01.040
<v Speaker 1>then Casey. UM. One. I just had my pendulum to

0:27:01.080 --> 0:27:03.800
<v Speaker 1>check her chakras, her crown, and then her heart. So

0:27:03.840 --> 0:27:05.760
<v Speaker 1>I was working on her heart and then said moved

0:27:05.800 --> 0:27:08.000
<v Speaker 1>to the crown. So I'm on the crown and then

0:27:08.440 --> 0:27:10.480
<v Speaker 1>I get this vision of her with a baby and

0:27:10.520 --> 0:27:13.800
<v Speaker 1>she's like swinging it in dandelions in like a park.

0:27:14.359 --> 0:27:16.520
<v Speaker 1>And then when I'm done, I'm like, I don't know,

0:27:16.560 --> 0:27:19.919
<v Speaker 1>but I'm seeing this vision of like you and a

0:27:19.960 --> 0:27:22.080
<v Speaker 1>baby girl and you're in a park. I don't know

0:27:22.960 --> 0:27:24.639
<v Speaker 1>if that means anything to you, but this is what

0:27:24.680 --> 0:27:27.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm seeing. So if you're not planning on having kids,

0:27:27.240 --> 0:27:29.560
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna probably have one soon. And she was like, yeah,

0:27:29.600 --> 0:27:31.080
<v Speaker 1>it was just weird. It was just so out of

0:27:31.160 --> 0:27:34.640
<v Speaker 1>left field. And then um, a week later we find

0:27:34.640 --> 0:27:38.760
<v Speaker 1>out she's pregnant. Well, I hope they're listening because instead

0:27:38.760 --> 0:27:40.880
<v Speaker 1>of instead of doing Tesla on us guys, we could

0:27:40.880 --> 0:27:43.359
<v Speaker 1>just bring me a Maya in for a little breaky

0:27:43.440 --> 0:27:45.560

<v Speaker 1>All right, Well, but before we go into this Miami move,

0:29:36.440 --> 0:29:39.239
<v Speaker 1>I want to know what are you most proud of

0:29:39.240 --> 0:29:43.040
<v Speaker 1>this season? Because after hearing how much you've accomplished emotionally

0:29:43.560 --> 0:29:45.600
<v Speaker 1>to get through it and hearing how difficult that was,

0:29:45.640 --> 0:29:48.480
<v Speaker 1>but also knowing that you trained so much and got

0:29:48.480 --> 0:29:50.840
<v Speaker 1>a nutritionist before we even got on there, what do

0:29:50.840 --> 0:29:53.640
<v Speaker 1>you think was like? What makes you most proud? Was

0:29:53.640 --> 0:29:58.560
<v Speaker 1>it the mental aspect that you've accomplished with a physical aspect? Oh? Man,

0:29:58.720 --> 0:30:01.760
<v Speaker 1>I hate to go deep again, but no go deep.

0:30:02.720 --> 0:30:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Um Seeing MTV, seeing podcast people, um anytime they talk

0:30:10.000 --> 0:30:14.120
<v Speaker 1>about literary and Durell or anyone them referencing them with

0:30:14.200 --> 0:30:21.320
<v Speaker 1>the term king. That, Yeah, that's the biggest thing. That's

0:30:21.320 --> 0:30:24.480
<v Speaker 1>the biggest thing for me. That um Man, that that

0:30:24.480 --> 0:30:27.400
<v Speaker 1>that hits home because now you get ah, you get

0:30:27.480 --> 0:30:30.000
<v Speaker 1>to add new narrative, you know what I mean, and

0:30:30.240 --> 0:30:33.400
<v Speaker 1>and you get to add new perspective. And when you

0:30:33.520 --> 0:30:37.400
<v Speaker 1>have UM other people like saying like MTV putting a

0:30:37.440 --> 0:30:41.080
<v Speaker 1>picture on the challenge Instagram and it's like militarian and

0:30:41.080 --> 0:30:43.360
<v Speaker 1>stuff and they say royal family, It's like, to me,

0:30:43.440 --> 0:30:46.560
<v Speaker 1>that's powerful. I'm like, oh my god, that's that's huge.

0:30:46.680 --> 0:30:48.880
<v Speaker 1>So to me, I think that's the best. The biggest

0:30:48.920 --> 0:30:52.880
<v Speaker 1>thing is um is that alone. Yeah, I agree, that

0:30:52.960 --> 0:30:55.040
<v Speaker 1>was a really when they introduced the King's Palace, I

0:30:55.040 --> 0:30:57.600
<v Speaker 1>think even Tori you were saying like that was just

0:30:57.640 --> 0:31:01.200
<v Speaker 1>a powerful episode. I don't of itself just like showing

0:31:01.320 --> 0:31:03.600
<v Speaker 1>that because we don't, I don't. We don't get enough

0:31:03.600 --> 0:31:06.800
<v Speaker 1>of it. To be honest, you guys were my favorite

0:31:06.800 --> 0:31:09.560
<v Speaker 1>part of the season, like not just everything about it.

0:31:09.600 --> 0:31:12.120
<v Speaker 1>You guys made the show really and like me and

0:31:12.200 --> 0:31:15.040
<v Speaker 1>I you should be so proud because, like you said,

0:31:15.800 --> 0:31:17.840
<v Speaker 1>the effect that it that it has, It's like like

0:31:17.920 --> 0:31:20.440
<v Speaker 1>you change the narrative completely and now people look at

0:31:20.480 --> 0:31:22.160
<v Speaker 1>you guys, and I'm like, I want you. I want

0:31:22.200 --> 0:31:24.880
<v Speaker 1>to be on a season with you. I want to

0:31:24.880 --> 0:31:27.120
<v Speaker 1>play the game with you guys like that. The energy

0:31:27.200 --> 0:31:30.000
<v Speaker 1>is just wants to be a jester in the palace. Yeah,

0:31:30.160 --> 0:31:33.040
<v Speaker 1>let me be a jester. Oh you will laugh from

0:31:33.200 --> 0:31:36.400
<v Speaker 1>if you like to laugh. Just know that all we

0:31:36.560 --> 0:31:40.280
<v Speaker 1>do is laugh. The whole time. We were cracking up.

0:31:40.320 --> 0:31:42.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean there was nights where we would just all

0:31:42.200 --> 0:31:44.560
<v Speaker 1>be in tears, so we'd be in band and it

0:31:44.600 --> 0:31:48.800
<v Speaker 1>would just be we all just pier belly laughs, us

0:31:48.840 --> 0:31:52.880
<v Speaker 1>talking so much, so much shit and just feeling just

0:31:52.920 --> 0:31:55.280
<v Speaker 1>feeling like you're at home on a challenge, which is

0:31:55.400 --> 0:31:57.600
<v Speaker 1>very difficult to get you know, it's like it's hard

0:31:57.600 --> 0:32:00.760
<v Speaker 1>to feel at home on those things. So, um, that

0:32:00.880 --> 0:32:03.920
<v Speaker 1>probably really got you through it. That's the only thing.

0:32:04.520 --> 0:32:06.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, I mean you can't even see it. Like

0:32:06.680 --> 0:32:09.480
<v Speaker 1>Latian is this person that's like this huge guy that

0:32:09.560 --> 0:32:12.360
<v Speaker 1>you just like immediately check off is like somebody who

0:32:12.400 --> 0:32:14.320
<v Speaker 1>would never cry. I mean, obviously I don't know him,

0:32:14.360 --> 0:32:17.480
<v Speaker 1>but that he shows off, but you see him break down,

0:32:17.640 --> 0:32:20.040
<v Speaker 1>like the moment that he thinks, you know, the palace

0:32:20.120 --> 0:32:22.760
<v Speaker 1>is being under attack. So it's like you could see it.

0:32:22.880 --> 0:32:26.440
<v Speaker 1>You could. It brought so much life. Every every color

0:32:26.640 --> 0:32:29.800
<v Speaker 1>of somebody's emotions came out. Um, you could see it,

0:32:29.800 --> 0:32:32.280
<v Speaker 1>and it was just it was so beautiful. So yeah,

0:32:32.400 --> 0:32:34.320
<v Speaker 1>I can't. I hope there's a I hope there's another

0:32:34.320 --> 0:32:36.120
<v Speaker 1>season Fingers Crossed, and I hope we get to see

0:32:36.160 --> 0:32:39.160
<v Speaker 1>it again. I know that'll be dope. Save the Palace.

0:32:39.400 --> 0:32:42.160
<v Speaker 1>We got to save it and to go into the palace.

0:32:43.760 --> 0:32:47.600
<v Speaker 1>The palace is for the palace. Look, Anissa, have you

0:32:47.640 --> 0:32:50.040
<v Speaker 1>ever have you ever in a game truly felt like

0:32:50.160 --> 0:32:52.600
<v Speaker 1>you were like one of the leaders or at the

0:32:52.640 --> 0:32:54.680

0:33:01.680 --> 0:33:04.440
<v Speaker 1>always gone off. I know my own strength, and when

0:33:04.440 --> 0:33:06.600
<v Speaker 1>people doubt me, it's time for me to prove them wrong.

0:33:06.840 --> 0:33:09.080
<v Speaker 1>So it was always like an alliance of one because

0:33:09.120 --> 0:33:11.160
<v Speaker 1>I knew that was the only person I could trust,

0:33:11.520 --> 0:33:14.160
<v Speaker 1>even when I felt like I was probably gonna fuck up.

0:33:14.200 --> 0:33:18.080
<v Speaker 1>But no, we've never been at the top of anything.

0:33:18.560 --> 0:33:20.440
<v Speaker 1>I think it scares people when we are. I mean

0:33:20.480 --> 0:33:22.120
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. In Double Agents, I felt like I

0:33:22.160 --> 0:33:25.320
<v Speaker 1>had a little a little bit of power, but it

0:33:25.440 --> 0:33:27.720
<v Speaker 1>just went everywhere because I didn't know what to do

0:33:27.720 --> 0:33:30.000
<v Speaker 1>with it, because that was just like it was such

0:33:30.000 --> 0:33:35.480
<v Speaker 1>an unpredictable, weird energy the whole thing. I was just miserable.

0:33:35.560 --> 0:33:40.160
<v Speaker 1>But no, never really felt really in charge of anything.

0:33:40.280 --> 0:33:43.880
<v Speaker 1>Feared by people in certain ways, sure, but like never.

0:33:44.040 --> 0:33:46.840
<v Speaker 1>I've been weaponized a lot, so I don't I don't

0:33:46.960 --> 0:33:49.480
<v Speaker 1>only see it as that. And you deserve it. Come

0:33:49.520 --> 0:33:53.280
<v Speaker 1>to the King's palace, you deserve it. You deserve it.

0:33:53.800 --> 0:33:55.080
<v Speaker 1>You don't got it, you don't. You don't gotta. You

0:33:55.120 --> 0:33:57.360
<v Speaker 1>don't gotta prove yourself with people. You don't gotta. You

0:33:57.440 --> 0:33:59.280
<v Speaker 1>gotta prove yourself to people like that, Like if they

0:33:59.320 --> 0:34:02.320
<v Speaker 1>don't recognize the light, it's because they can't handle the glare.

0:34:02.880 --> 0:34:08.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, the past folks the palace, we're all equal

0:34:08.600 --> 0:34:11.040
<v Speaker 1>over there. We're all equal over there. There is no

0:34:11.080 --> 0:34:13.600
<v Speaker 1>pecking order. There is no pecking order. You know. If

0:34:13.600 --> 0:34:15.399
<v Speaker 1>you're went to the the palace, we're riding for you. We're

0:34:15.400 --> 0:34:18.120
<v Speaker 1>all gonna sit there, we're all gonna cry together, and

0:34:18.200 --> 0:34:21.400
<v Speaker 1>we're all at each other's top of the vote. So yeah,

0:34:21.440 --> 0:34:23.799

0:34:23.840 --> 0:34:26.200
<v Speaker 1>to the final and whatever wants, so you got it.

0:34:26.400 --> 0:34:29.520
<v Speaker 1>Thank you. Story comes to the King's Palace. I'm already there.

0:34:48.000 --> 0:34:51.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, whether it's whether it is a relationship, whether

0:34:51.719 --> 0:34:54.279

<v Speaker 1>And that's what the palace represents. And everybody has a

0:35:05.960 --> 0:35:08.600

0:35:08.680 --> 0:35:11.719
<v Speaker 1>protect it and you save it at all means. And

0:35:11.760 --> 0:35:13.600
<v Speaker 1>the more you save it, the more it's going to grow,

0:35:13.640 --> 0:35:15.160
<v Speaker 1>and the more you start to bring other people in

0:35:15.239 --> 0:35:18.399

<v Speaker 1>there's going to be another one in the future. But

0:35:39.880 --> 0:35:41.719
<v Speaker 1>in the meantime, what is it that you do and

0:35:42.120 --> 0:35:45.239
<v Speaker 1>that you work on? Um? So, one of my main

0:35:45.280 --> 0:35:49.279
<v Speaker 1>things right now is I work with a tech company

0:35:49.360 --> 0:35:56.080
<v Speaker 1>that helps to get low income people improphets areas free

0:35:56.120 --> 0:36:00.759
<v Speaker 1>tech schooling and certificates and um and new careers and stuff.

0:36:00.800 --> 0:36:03.960
<v Speaker 1>So I work with recruiting people and getting them through

0:36:04.000 --> 0:36:08.319
<v Speaker 1>this program and a unlike recruiting them, bringing them in

0:36:08.480 --> 0:36:12.400
<v Speaker 1>creating their content. So really trying to do, like what

0:36:12.480 --> 0:36:14.960
<v Speaker 1>I said with helping people with financial freedom and stuff like,

0:36:15.040 --> 0:36:17.320
<v Speaker 1>that's kind of a big goal of mine, is helping

0:36:17.360 --> 0:36:20.960
<v Speaker 1>people get financially in a position to where they can

0:36:21.000 --> 0:36:24.160
<v Speaker 1>spend their time doing what they love to do. You know. Um,

0:36:24.400 --> 0:36:26.520
<v Speaker 1>so that's one of the main things that I do

0:36:26.640 --> 0:36:28.759
<v Speaker 1>right now. And then on the side, I'm to be

0:36:28.800 --> 0:36:33.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, creating content on all around wellness, you know,

0:36:33.640 --> 0:36:39.359
<v Speaker 1>self help, appreciation, understanding, you know, spirituality, you know, like

0:36:39.520 --> 0:36:41.560
<v Speaker 1>just pretty much just some of the stuff that some

0:36:41.600 --> 0:36:45.080
<v Speaker 1>of the tools that I've I've learned, just just putting

0:36:45.080 --> 0:36:46.759
<v Speaker 1>them out there and whoever wants to use them can

0:36:46.840 --> 0:36:49.480
<v Speaker 1>use them. Let me know if you have a newsletter,

0:36:49.520 --> 0:36:52.080
<v Speaker 1>because I want to sign up, I want to get updates.

0:36:51.880 --> 0:36:55.759
<v Speaker 1>There's I mean, let us know what to follow because yeah,

0:36:55.920 --> 0:36:58.840
<v Speaker 1>so selfless, thank you yeah for doing that. Yeah, because

0:36:59.239 --> 0:37:01.120
<v Speaker 1>access is a big thing and a lot of people

0:37:01.120 --> 0:37:06.399
<v Speaker 1>don't have it. So Bridge absolutely absolutely there's things I'm

0:37:06.440 --> 0:37:10.040
<v Speaker 1>learning financially, like in my late twenties and early thirties

0:37:10.040 --> 0:37:11.520
<v Speaker 1>that you know, I feel like I should have known

0:37:11.560 --> 0:37:15.960
<v Speaker 1>that eighteen sixteen. You know, it's like I'm learning now

0:37:16.000 --> 0:37:18.560
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like ever ever, and I mean I think

0:37:18.600 --> 0:37:21.319
<v Speaker 1>that's what makes people strong nowadays, is is the people

0:37:21.320 --> 0:37:23.319
<v Speaker 1>who can continue to learn, you know what I mean, Like,

0:37:23.360 --> 0:37:25.160
<v Speaker 1>that's that's the that's the new tools. So if you

0:37:25.160 --> 0:37:28.600
<v Speaker 1>can keep learning, keep doing it. I love it. Welldia

0:37:28.640 --> 0:37:30.440

0:37:30.440 --> 0:37:33.279
<v Speaker 1>lot of fans too, and sour from Colorado reach out

0:37:36.560 --> 0:37:38.600
<v Speaker 1>a little fun fact. What is they hidden talent that

0:37:39.040 --> 0:37:43.800
<v Speaker 1>you have that you wish you could use in the challenge. Oh,

0:37:43.840 --> 0:37:48.600
<v Speaker 1>that's a special question. I would like to know as well.

0:37:49.000 --> 0:37:52.440
<v Speaker 1>Bottling parts and throwing it on opponents before elimination. Maybe

0:37:52.960 --> 0:37:56.400

0:37:56.400 --> 0:38:00.160
<v Speaker 1>are there. My farts have more barked and bite. You know,

0:38:00.360 --> 0:38:09.680
<v Speaker 1>they're loud, they're loud, but they like a botanical garden. Garden. Um,

0:38:10.239 --> 0:38:13.200
<v Speaker 1>you know that's a hidden talent. Um. If it was physical,

0:38:13.239 --> 0:38:17.759
<v Speaker 1>I would say probably boxing. Um, I wish we had

0:38:17.760 --> 0:38:19.600

<v Speaker 1>saying that you shouldn't, oh, but it was in my

0:41:35.040 --> 0:41:37.640
<v Speaker 1>first They provide I think that I think somebody may

0:41:37.719 --> 0:41:40.520
<v Speaker 1>need THEE. Yeah, they should be protected. But the point

0:41:40.520 --> 0:41:42.560
<v Speaker 1>of the means that they should they should not be expired.

0:41:42.600 --> 0:41:45.360
<v Speaker 1>So they actually worked. Shut the fuck up. We just couldn't.

0:41:45.600 --> 0:41:48.319

0:41:48.320 --> 0:41:51.040
