Speaker 1: Hello, everyone. I'm Devin Simone and I'm Tory Deale.
Speaker 2: And this is MTV's official Challenge podcast.
Speaker 3: Are you sure about that toy? You seem hesitant as
Speaker 3: to who you are, but.
Speaker 1: Yes, this is MTV's official Challenge podcast. And Tori, you know,
Speaker 1: maybe you are slow to answer because you're still reeling
Speaker 1: from getting jumped.
Speaker 3: Yes on national television. I am so.
Speaker 1: Glad that you're okay, thank you, and that you're here
Speaker 1: to do the podcast with me. I appreciate your dedication
Speaker 1: and commitment and glad to see that your hair is
Speaker 1: growing back in in that spot.
Speaker 3: I'm just kidding you, guys her hair.
Speaker 4: I got my hair ripped out this season. I got
Speaker 4: my face punched multiple times. I've been jumped. I mean,
Speaker 4: it's really been a lot. It's been a lot, but
Speaker 4: it's been fun. I can't say that I want to
Speaker 4: do it again, but at least I can say I
Speaker 4: did it.
Speaker 1: You know, this has been one of the I was
Speaker 1: just telling my Dorman this and he was probably like,
Speaker 1: what are you talking about? But this has been one
Speaker 1: of the most entertaining seasons of the Challenge. I mean,
Speaker 1: and it's just so all the dynamics, all the characters,
Speaker 1: all the things happening, all the twists and turns, all
Speaker 1: of it has been so good and so fun to watch.
Speaker 3: I mean, not getting punched, but it's it's been fun
Speaker 3: to watch.
Speaker 4: Listen, I didn't even know that I got punched until
Speaker 4: I watched it back. I'm gonna be completely honest with you,
Speaker 4: when you're so in it like that, like you don't
Speaker 4: feel anything you don't like. That's why when you watch
Speaker 4: UFC fighters, and of course they probably feel some of
Speaker 4: the punches after they've gotten like fifty, but you're so
Speaker 4: in it. You're adrenaline just moving. So I didn't know
Speaker 4: I had that happened until right now.
Speaker 1: And I'm pissed and rightfully so, I'm excited to see
Speaker 1: what happens a during the rest of this game. But
Speaker 1: then even whenever you guys are reunited again, it's also
Speaker 1: funny you get to see all of this happening after
Speaker 1: we just had Mikayla on the podcast, right because.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I mean, listen, I respect the way Mikayla
Speaker 4: plays the game, but what I will say is that
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna respect it if you're pulling my hair
Speaker 4: and punching.
Speaker 1: Me in the face, right, so we can we can
Speaker 1: respect you, although you some too, but I feel like
Speaker 1: that pretty good.
Speaker 3: Yeah you gotten better.
Speaker 1: But either way, she's feisty and like I said, I
Speaker 1: think tipped in my eyes to be like a new
Speaker 1: kind of Laurel. Not new because Laurel's sill here, but
Speaker 1: just I feel like they play it'd be interesting to
Speaker 1: see them again, like go against together. I feel like
Speaker 1: they play a similar game in certain nays. I agree,
Speaker 1: I totally agree. Laurel is definitely obviously one of the goats.
Speaker 4: Actually, Entertainment Weekly just listed the top fifty challenge players
Speaker 4: they did. Laurel's the first female listed, so it's not
Speaker 4: a bad person to like for Michaela to remind people
Speaker 4: of because she's the goat.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, And also side note that list is crazy as hell.
Speaker 3: I appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Entertainment Weekly, y'all know Goodwell, Johnny is far and above
Speaker 1: anywhere I will ever be on.
Speaker 6: The list, but I appreciate being included.
Speaker 1: But they have Johnny above you you Johnny, which is
Speaker 1: not even remotely accurate, not even the champ.
Speaker 2: She's just a double champ.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's she's killed, didn't she a triple Champ. She's
Speaker 3: she's a Champee Champ.
Speaker 1: Champ's a Champ finalist. But either way, go check out
Speaker 1: that list. Let us know in our DMS what you
Speaker 1: guys think about it as well. But shout out to
Speaker 1: Entertainment Weekly for always having our back and we appreciate
Speaker 1: you guys so much, and we appreciated this week's episode.
Speaker 1: I mean, we had everything from the oil wrestling where
Speaker 1: we had Corey and Michayla kicking butt. Then we have
Speaker 1: a really feisty boating session between Corey and Michayla. They
Speaker 1: were kind of going at it. Ultimately, Tyler and Cassidy
Speaker 1: were the ones selected. Then the hopper came in, did
Speaker 1: its thing and picked Chris, which is really kind of
Speaker 1: what the majority of the house wanted. And we see
Speaker 1: Chris versus Tyler and what TJ liked to call barrel tag.
Speaker 1: Who came up with these names or these ideas, But
Speaker 1: basically it was playing tag, but it was harder because
Speaker 1: you had to do so on top of barrels.
Speaker 3: It was a close game.
Speaker 1: It was a very fast elimination, which is both refreshing
Speaker 1: but also nail biting. Ultimately came down to about thirty
Speaker 1: seconds with Chris coming out on top, which means we
Speaker 1: see Tyler and his curls go home and we see
Speaker 1: Chris living another day. And dare I say that, Like, look,
Speaker 1: a couple episodes Chris was annoying because Chris was lining
Speaker 1: to everyone and trying to flip the script.
Speaker 3: But now I don't.
Speaker 6: I don't feel bad for Chris, but like I have
Speaker 6: empathy for because.
Speaker 1: Now he is in there all the time and he
Speaker 1: feels like he's fighting an uphill battle. I don't know,
Speaker 1: maybe my emotions are just being played like he's playing
Speaker 1: this game, but I feel I kind of am like,
Speaker 1: oh Chris, now, I mean, but I say, I don't know.
Speaker 3: It's all the fields.
Speaker 4: Yeah, dude, you never want anybody like when you're in
Speaker 4: the game. It doesn't It never feels good to keep
Speaker 4: putting the same people up because it's just difficult.
Speaker 2: It's hard. On World of World's two, I was that person.
Speaker 2: I walked that path before.
Speaker 4: I hated it, so like, I get it, you don't
Speaker 4: want to do it, but also sometimes it's the most
Speaker 4: strategic thing to do, so it is this bittersweet moment,
Speaker 4: but also that is the path of a legend. You
Speaker 4: don't become a legend without doing legendary shit, and like
Speaker 4: Chris is well on his Chris is well on his
Speaker 4: way to he's walking the path of a legend, like
Speaker 4: it's the loan walk.
Speaker 2: He's by himself. Nobody wants him in the game.
Speaker 4: He's lacugaracha because he keeps coming back in nobody can
Speaker 4: go to him.
Speaker 2: We kept calling him, we'll see because well, actually.
Speaker 4: We had a rap battle and I have the I
Speaker 4: have the rap here, so yeah, it's really good. I
Speaker 4: know this is my notebook from the house, but we'll
Speaker 4: get into that right before we get into the interview today.
Speaker 2: Because it's epic. It's epic.
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 6: I love that little c coming through.
Speaker 5: I love that. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's for Chris or Cockroach, but
Speaker 3: either way, uh, I love it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love it. Who gets your gold star and
Speaker 2: your time out this week? I got to give my
Speaker 2: gold star to Corey for two reasons.
Speaker 4: Obviously, he won and beat Fessi in a very physical challenge,
Speaker 4: and I think that a lot of people would have
Speaker 4: counted Cory out, so for that reason it makes sense.
Speaker 4: But also personally, he really had my back in that deliberation.
Speaker 2: And I feel like the least I could do is
Speaker 2: give him the gold star.
Speaker 1: Right now, I agree, I would have to say I
Speaker 1: give Corey the gold star just because it was great
Speaker 1: seeing him win.
Speaker 3: He really crushed it.
Speaker 1: He even put in work because BEESTI was just giving
Speaker 1: like driving directions the majority of the time until it
Speaker 1: came time for him to actually compete against Corey. And
Speaker 1: yet Corey still won. So props to Corey looked great
Speaker 1: doing it. So happy to see him on top. Also
Speaker 1: happy to see him stand for Tory and like stick
Speaker 1: to his word in the Alliance. I'd say that my
Speaker 1: time out of the week is probably gonna have to
Speaker 1: go to a mix of Mikayla and also The Secret
Speaker 1: Garden Alliance a smidge. And this is why I understand
Speaker 1: the way Mikayla plays, but I just feel like she's
Speaker 1: not looking at the bigger picture necessarily, and she's showing
Speaker 1: her hand, like even in the way she's showing her
Speaker 1: hand to the Secret Garden. Because every time you say, hey,
Speaker 1: I've won, I want to put Tory in and I
Speaker 1: know that that means it's putting a target on your
Speaker 1: back and talking about Chanelle and DESI to me, if
Speaker 1: I were Shanelle and Desie, I'd be side eyeing her
Speaker 1: a little bit, being like, you clearly don't care about
Speaker 1: my own safety. So like, I don't know, I just
Speaker 1: feel like she's she's showing her hand a little bit.
Speaker 1: And then yeah, so she's gonna have to get my
Speaker 1: time out of the week. And then also DESI being
Speaker 1: shocked that Michelle ultimately sided with the Vets, like I
Speaker 1: can see her feeling like we're survivor strong. But y'ah no, look, yeah,
Speaker 1: no's been here too long, She's she's been you know,
Speaker 1: tasting the sauce too long. She is ultimately probably gonna
Speaker 1: side with the Vets, and so you should have been
Speaker 1: mindful of that from the jump, like you shouldn't really
Speaker 1: be surprised totally.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think what Well, I don't want to spoil
Speaker 4: too much right now because I think a lot comes
Speaker 4: out next episode, so I don't want to spoil anything, don't.
Speaker 4: But I think there's more reasons why people are upset.
Speaker 4: I think there was hidden conversations that were not seeing maybe.
Speaker 2: Some people alluded to.
Speaker 4: I mean, obviously Michelle said that she was going to
Speaker 4: when she was sitting with right Alls, but you know,
Speaker 4: I am curious, like it was there more conversations that
Speaker 4: we're not seeing because it definitely, you know, obviously they
Speaker 4: voted for me.
Speaker 2: Obviously Mikayla tried to get me out.
Speaker 4: So now three people that I was originally trying to
Speaker 4: work with are all and we're all back in the
Speaker 4: house again together.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's like, okay, well what are we gonna
Speaker 2: do for me?
Speaker 3: And did you do that math? Immediately?
Speaker 2: Yeah, asked like you knew right away who was right away?
Speaker 4: Well, actually Chris came up to me right before the
Speaker 4: challenge because Chris kind of got blindsided and thought all
Speaker 4: the guys were making it a girl's day, which is
Speaker 4: you hear that conversation. He comes up to me before
Speaker 4: the challenge and he says good luck. But I'm smiling
Speaker 4: because I'm like, bro, you don't even know. Michelle had
Speaker 4: already told me she wasn't voting for me, so I
Speaker 4: already knew she wasn't.
Speaker 2: And then when I saw the three votes.
Speaker 4: Up there, Chris had voted for me the week prior,
Speaker 4: and then I knew they were going to be Chanelle
Speaker 4: and Dezi. So TJ actually asked me while we were
Speaker 4: down on the sand. He was like, Tori, like, who
Speaker 4: do you think voted for you? And I was like,
Speaker 4: I know exactly who voted for me, Desi and Chanel.
Speaker 4: And then Desi looks over me he goes, She goes,
Speaker 4: no I didn't, and I.
Speaker 2: Go, Desi, yes you did.
Speaker 4: Like your face is beautiful, but it's not good at
Speaker 4: holding a.
Speaker 3: Lot, like trying to lie.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 4: So that's when I was like, okay, but listen, Like
Speaker 4: we we go back into the house and you'll see
Speaker 4: the rest of how this conversation unravels next week, because
Speaker 4: it definitely gets spicy, but you know what the good
Speaker 4: thing is, like, listen, we have those tense moments, we
Speaker 4: also have really fun moments. I loved seeing us this week,
Speaker 4: like that party that we had.
Speaker 2: In the house.
Speaker 4: We wild wild, and also we asked production not to
Speaker 4: go to the club. We were all exhausted that day
Speaker 4: because like the mud wrestle, the adrenaline that day was
Speaker 4: just so intense.
Speaker 2: We're like, can we just have a party at the house.
Speaker 4: They gave us all the alcohol and we did it
Speaker 4: and it was just, I mean an epic night.
Speaker 2: You don't even see the half of it.
Speaker 3: I mean, somebody probably got pregnant that night. I'm gonna
Speaker 3: say it, y'all were wiling.
Speaker 6: You guys were absolutely wiling, and it.
Speaker 3: Was fun to see.
Speaker 1: We like seeing you guys have fun and something else
Speaker 1: that's gonna be fun you guys.
Speaker 4: Is our next guest, Yes, yes, we have Tyler Crispin
Speaker 4: coming on to explain how that elimination was.
Speaker 2: The Vegan King is coming in hot baby, and I'm
Speaker 2: excited to talk to him.
Speaker 1: Yeah. He gives us some tea on some fights that
Speaker 1: we didn't see what he learned in the house. Whether
Speaker 1: or not he and Alyssa As are still together, word
Speaker 1: on the street is they might be. So you know,
Speaker 1: you're not gonna want to miss this. Grab your snacks,
Speaker 1: your food, whatever, get nice and comfy, maybe even grab
Speaker 1: a bottle a lot of oil. Either way, stay tuned
Speaker 1: because you're not gonna want to miss this interview with
Speaker 1: Tyler Crispin right after this.
Speaker 4: This person was the mean character of Big Brother twenty
Speaker 4: also on Big Brother All Stars. He is the Vegan
Speaker 4: King and absolutely smashed bananas in that oil pit.
Speaker 2: Welcome Tyler Chrispin.
Speaker 5: Hello, Hello, love the intro.
Speaker 2: How are you doing?
Speaker 5: I'm great, I'm great.
Speaker 7: It's an honor to be here talking to you, seeing
Speaker 7: your face once again, the vegan queen.
Speaker 5: Let's go, Let's go.
Speaker 1: Maybe this was a jam packed episode. How do what's
Speaker 1: your initial thoughts or feelings Tyler watching it back?
Speaker 7: Oh my, that was a great episode. That was such
Speaker 7: a good episode. My initial thoughts, I mean, I don't know,
Speaker 7: it's sad to see me go, I guess, But at
Speaker 7: the same time, I uh, I'm.
Speaker 5: Rooting for Chris right now.
Speaker 7: I never thought i'd say this, but I'm rooting for
Speaker 7: Chris more than I.
Speaker 5: Ever thought I would. So it's a good season.
Speaker 3: Why do you say that?
Speaker 2: Why do you say A that you never thought you
Speaker 2: would root for Chris?
Speaker 1: And then b why now was it watching this episode
Speaker 1: specifically made you root for him?
Speaker 3: Or what was it?
Speaker 7: I mean, Chris and I were just always seeming to
Speaker 7: be at each other and never seeming to be aligned
Speaker 7: in the game, and like you said, we had the
Speaker 7: anti alliance. So it's just like anytime the other person
Speaker 7: asked us to do something, we would just.
Speaker 5: Do the opposite.
Speaker 7: And it was just like and it drew us closer
Speaker 7: and after seeing it play out, and like Chris was
Speaker 7: the first person I hung out with after the show too, so.
Speaker 5: It's like it was like our differences wait even before,
Speaker 5: even before. So yeah, I remember for Chris here, he's
Speaker 5: killing it.
Speaker 4: Let's get into this daily challenge before we get into
Speaker 4: any of the voting and all that good stuff. What
Speaker 4: were your thoughts when you walked up and saw the
Speaker 4: oil wrestle.
Speaker 7: I was like, yo, finally they built something for me,
Speaker 7: you know, at I'm six six three and fifty pounds.
Speaker 5: I know you probably can't tell on camera, but I was.
Speaker 5: I was ready. Finally one for me.
Speaker 1: I mean to be watching between the slow mo and
Speaker 1: the music and whatever Bananas was doing, it looked like
Speaker 1: some medical or meta alert commercial or something. Tyler, you
Speaker 1: were the only one that actually looked fly in the
Speaker 1: like run up of that thing.
Speaker 3: I was like, okay, Tyler, reflex in the aps, like.
Speaker 1: Standing there, you were the only one who made it
Speaker 1: look sort of appealing. Do you do you wish I'm
Speaker 1: sure you wish that Alyssa had still been in the game,
Speaker 1: just because you guys were were so close, But do
Speaker 1: you wish she was there for that particular daily so
Speaker 1: she could see you oiled up?
Speaker 7: I mean, that's a great question. I'm sure it won't
Speaker 7: be the worst episode for her to watch. I'm glad
Speaker 7: they didn't show all of us doing push ups right
Speaker 7: before that so we would look good.
Speaker 2: Oh that's hilarious.
Speaker 5: I had to get a little pump going.
Speaker 3: That's hilarious, Tory. Did the girls do that before?
Speaker 2: Wow, Jess, the girls were too busy plodding on how
Speaker 2: to jump me. Oh yeah, you got.
Speaker 1: I mean, look as a whole. We'll get into that
Speaker 1: in a minute, but I just I want to get
Speaker 1: into your love life a little bit, Tyler while we're here,
Speaker 1: because I know Tory won't press you on it, because Tory,
Speaker 1: because I always pressed Tory on hers. When Alissa left
Speaker 1: the house, Alyssa, S, how did that change things for
Speaker 1: you in the house.
Speaker 3: Did you find that you were feeling different at all?
Speaker 2: Were you more motivated less motivated?
Speaker 5: Like?
Speaker 6: What?
Speaker 7: Honestly it kind of I would say I was more
Speaker 7: motivated than ever. Honestly, like, at that point it was
Speaker 7: just Alyssa and I and like ad Josh, I had
Speaker 7: fest but at the same time, they had so many
Speaker 7: other ties going on that I knew.
Speaker 5: I was just pretty much by myself.
Speaker 7: So at that point, like I was locked in in
Speaker 7: my lone wolf era and that's just then era that
Speaker 7: I'm comfortable in, So it wasn't it wasn't really. Uh,
Speaker 7: it was terrible to see Alyssa go and it sucked
Speaker 7: not having her there, But at the same time, I
Speaker 7: was like, on the guy side, I'm just gonna lock
Speaker 7: in and do what I gotta do, and it is
Speaker 7: what it is.
Speaker 1: You showed some really impressive qualities Tyler. If you know this,
Speaker 1: but my my normal job is I'm a matchmaker in
Speaker 1: real life, so I tell people's love life and relationships
Speaker 1: all the time. And the amount of times that you
Speaker 1: went up to bat for Alyssa in this game where
Speaker 1: you're like, I'm going to make it a guy's day
Speaker 1: because I'm going to defend her like I want to
Speaker 1: protect her, that's I mean goal is just first of all,
Speaker 1: so round of applause. Proof for those wondering good guys
Speaker 1: still exist and some of them have really lovely curly
Speaker 1: hair just so you know they exist. But what went
Speaker 1: into those decisions? Because we don't see that often, I mean,
Speaker 1: aside from Nelson and what he does for his friends,
Speaker 1: we don't see that often. So yeah, what went into
Speaker 1: you both times sort of saying no, I'm going to
Speaker 1: try and take the heat off of her or I'm
Speaker 1: going to try and make, you know, protect her at
Speaker 1: all costs in this game.
Speaker 7: I mean, that's funny you mentioned Nelson because Nelson shot
Speaker 7: me a DM like, man, that's a great moving proud
Speaker 7: of you, man. So, but I don't know, that's just
Speaker 7: kind of how I am. Like in these past games,
Speaker 7: I have always found my people. And when I find
Speaker 7: my people, I'm not just gonna, you know, bail on them.
Speaker 7: Like I go to bat for the people that I'm
Speaker 7: there with, Like Big Brother twenty is me and Casey
Speaker 7: Day one, I'll stick my neck out for her. I'll
Speaker 7: stick my neck out for my alliance no matter what,
Speaker 7: cause you're not gonna make it through this game if
Speaker 7: you don't have your people. So at any point, I'm
Speaker 7: always willing to do that. And honestly, I'm just like,
Speaker 7: I love being on a team. I love working with people.
Speaker 7: So even when I'm not motivated to like protect myself,
Speaker 7: sometimes I'd rather, you know, jump out and stick my
Speaker 7: neck out for someone else.
Speaker 5: It just it puts that fire under me.
Speaker 7: So yeah, not that I had any I feel like
Speaker 7: Alyssa was completely underrated in this game. Like people have
Speaker 7: been calling her layup that is the most trash Like
Speaker 7: she's like a kind hearted person, she's seft spoken, but
Speaker 7: when it comes down to it, there was one point
Speaker 7: where she was the winningest person in the game when
Speaker 7: we were still in the.
Speaker 5: Team phase, and I had all the confidence.
Speaker 7: In the world that she could go down there and
Speaker 7: you know, come back and win for herself. But I
Speaker 7: felt like, uh, I kind of wanted to, you know,
Speaker 7: take that on and earn my stripes at the same time.
Speaker 5: So I did that.
Speaker 3: Her up.
Speaker 4: And I know Devin thought I wasn't gonna ask about relationships,
Speaker 4: but I am curious to.
Speaker 3: Be so proud of your tory, so proud of.
Speaker 2: You, but you know what you did, and like, obviously
Speaker 2: this is just the news on the streets.
Speaker 4: You know, you were previously engaged to Angela, who was
Speaker 4: on Challenge USA one, So like, did any of that
Speaker 4: knowing that she had been on the challenge, knowing that, like,
Speaker 4: you know, you had been with somebody who was in
Speaker 4: a relationship on the Challenge, Like, did that change or
Speaker 4: affect the way you came into this season at all?
Speaker 7: Kind of I mean I definitely didn't want to jump
Speaker 7: into anything. I didn't want to jump into a relationship
Speaker 7: or a showmancer or anything when I first got there
Speaker 7: at all. And then a couple of days and Listen
Speaker 7: starts giving me the eyes and that kind of change.
Speaker 5: So yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 7: I was definitely I was definitely on the defense when
Speaker 7: it came to that. But uh, you know, Listen was
Speaker 7: a sweet person. She's awesome.
Speaker 5: So it's like, you know, I'm just I just kind
Speaker 5: of roll with it as it goes. And I was
Speaker 5: very grateful.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you could see that.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 4: She put up a good fight in her elimination too.
Speaker 4: I mean she lost by one one patch, so by
Speaker 4: one one patch.
Speaker 1: Like, how much did you dislike Tory when she was
Speaker 1: coming after Alyssa that time when Tory was one and
Speaker 1: voted Alyssa on a scale of one to ten, ten
Speaker 1: being I'm a getter and one being like she's great?
Speaker 3: How much did you dislike Tory in those moments?
Speaker 7: I was probably I was probably a solid eight there, Toy.
Speaker 7: You remember that one time I got pretty grumpy with you.
Speaker 5: I don't even think I said anything. I just stared
Speaker 5: at you. You're like, well, you're actually mad for once? Yeah,
Speaker 5: what are you doing? Yeah?
Speaker 2: It was the sweetest mad there ever was.
Speaker 4: And then not only not only that, he came up
Speaker 4: to me a day later and apologized for being grumpy.
Speaker 4: I said, Tyler, you should absolutely hate me, Like I
Speaker 4: totally get it, but like he is true and.
Speaker 2: Throw such a sweet soul.
Speaker 4: And it was crazy actually when you left the game,
Speaker 4: because you know, when everybody starts to leave and the
Speaker 4: house gets quiet, we really starts to talk about people
Speaker 4: a lot more. And I think I was talking to
Speaker 4: either fest or Josh about your backstory and I was
Speaker 4: like mind blown with the story of who you are
Speaker 4: and who you are today. So like, obviously I don't
Speaker 4: want to push or pry, but I am wondering, like
Speaker 4: would you want to share with people like where you
Speaker 4: come from and what your story was like and what
Speaker 4: it we do into the sweetheart.
Speaker 2: You are today?
Speaker 5: Sure? I mean why not? Yeah? What do you want
Speaker 5: to know?
Speaker 2: Just whatever?
Speaker 4: Whatever you want to start with. I guess, like you
Speaker 4: know you're up day you were born.
Speaker 7: Yeah, so I mean some people know this, Like I
Speaker 7: I grew up in Ohio and my dad passed away.
Speaker 7: He was like my best friend he passed away, and
Speaker 7: I was like seventeen, and uh, pretty much when I
Speaker 7: was eighteen, I kind of been out on my.
Speaker 5: Own, kind of doing my own thing.
Speaker 7: And you know, I've lived in a lot of different
Speaker 7: places and kind of built my own life from the
Speaker 7: ground up because.
Speaker 5: I just really just kind of had enough when I was.
Speaker 7: Eighteen and put myself through school, worked like three jobs,
Speaker 7: and lived in Australia for a little while, like became
Speaker 7: a beach lifeguard, started traveling around quite a bit. And yeah,
Speaker 7: it's just it's just been, like I said, I'm really
Speaker 7: comfortable in.
Speaker 5: The lone Wolf era because I've been there before.
Speaker 7: And I've been pretty much on my own since, you know,
Speaker 7: the beginning of my adulthood, and I've been able to
Speaker 7: do these amazing things and play these amazing games, and
Speaker 7: it's just like it's just the most beautiful thing and
Speaker 7: I'm so grateful.
Speaker 5: To have done that.
Speaker 7: So I don't know, I just always try to when
Speaker 7: people have my back, I always try to, you know,
Speaker 7: go the extra mile for them, just because I have
Speaker 7: been kind of on my own for a while.
Speaker 5: So that's that's kind of why that happens, I guess.
Speaker 1: Tyler you have such a beautiful energy, like minness, literally
Speaker 1: such a beautiful energy.
Speaker 2: I'm mad at everyone who went after you.
Speaker 3: All right, now let's get into the daily challenge.
Speaker 1: Now we know that Bessy is your number one guy
Speaker 1: at this point in the game. Do you think he
Speaker 1: would side with you over the bets?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 7: No, While he was like, I knew that he had
Speaker 7: those ties, so I knew, like like he had been
Speaker 7: protecting me, and I'd been protecting him whenever I had
Speaker 7: the chance. But I figured it would come up to
Speaker 7: a point where it was like, I know you're gonna
Speaker 7: pick Josh over me.
Speaker 5: I know you're gonna pick Corey over me.
Speaker 7: Bananas, I was like, I couldn't ever really tell where
Speaker 7: they would lie because best Wood kind of poke at
Speaker 7: like trying to get out bananas here and there. So
Speaker 7: that was kind of the only angle at this point
Speaker 7: that I could possibly play with them. But at the
Speaker 7: end of the day, I was like, I was in
Speaker 7: the mentality where it was I'm gonna make it to
Speaker 7: the end only by winning my way to the end,
Speaker 7: So I wasn't trying to press on Fest too much
Speaker 7: to you know, keep sticking his neck out for me.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
Speaker 4: What was it like being in the mudpit with everybody
Speaker 4: and like we know because we were there, and you
Speaker 4: don't really get to see it too not mud pet
Speaker 4: oil pit, Yeah, but we don't. You don't get to
Speaker 4: see it too too much on the show. But it
Speaker 4: truly was like, all right, you guys, go at it.
Speaker 4: All right, you guys, go at it. And that's what
Speaker 4: was really standing in the back.
Speaker 2: And not doing anything.
Speaker 4: Did it ever, like, you know, become a question in
Speaker 4: your mind, like all right, why don't we all just
Speaker 4: turn on fast?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 3: How did he get away with that?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 7: That's what I'm saying. You're just sitting there on the
Speaker 7: sidelines like a coach, like all right, you too, you too.
Speaker 7: It was crazy. I'm not going to be the one
Speaker 7: to say no, let's go get fast because he'll just
Speaker 7: lost my hands out of there in five seconds.
Speaker 5: So I was like, all right, bnanas, let's go at it.
Speaker 1: Whatever, man, did you and Chris ever think of like
Speaker 1: creating an alliance specifically for like walking up to that,
Speaker 1: to the that rumble? I mean, honestly, can we just
Speaker 1: say it looked like the Alabama brawl. The only thing
Speaker 1: missing was a folding chair it was wild. There was
Speaker 1: a lot going on on both of them, and it
Speaker 1: was interesting to watch, but also felt a little bad,
Speaker 1: like the gang up situation.
Speaker 3: It was. It was, it was a lot of emotions.
Speaker 1: But did you and Chris ever think of creating an
Speaker 1: alliance just for that particular daily challenge, knowing that you guys,
Speaker 1: probably you guys weren't as closely aligned as these other
Speaker 1: guys in the house.
Speaker 5: I'm sure we both had the thought, but like I said,
Speaker 5: Chris and I, for some reason just had the most
Speaker 5: anti alliance that even if that would have been beneficial,
Speaker 5: we would not have even said it to each.
Speaker 7: Other because then we wouldn't have trusted that the other
Speaker 7: person would have come through. But when I saw Chris
Speaker 7: Gein jumped, like in the episode, you saw me say like,
Speaker 7: oh this is great, like it's not me, But then
Speaker 7: I remember having it like damn, once they get him,
Speaker 7: that's gonna.
Speaker 2: Be me exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 4: But the nice thing is they at least gave you
Speaker 4: and Bananas your space to duke it out, and you
Speaker 4: guys actually took each other out, which is really impressive.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I was, hey, I was fine with that. I'm like,
Speaker 7: I know, I got out, but at least I got
Speaker 7: the banana band with me right there, like I'll take
Speaker 7: that right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was.
Speaker 4: It was really intense, and I think that, like you know,
Speaker 4: we think about wrestling if there is no oil, it's
Speaker 4: a whole different experience. The moment you put that oil on,
Speaker 4: even production was telling us it's an equalizer because you
Speaker 4: don't have a lot of grip on somebody else, you
Speaker 4: have the ability to kind of like squeeze through situations.
Speaker 4: And it was hard, but I mean, obviously, when there's
Speaker 4: multiple people on you, you can't really do anything.
Speaker 3: Toy.
Speaker 2: Have you ever been jumped before? Yeah, in that oil pen.
Speaker 1: No before before the oil had you know, this is
Speaker 1: our tried me in real life?
Speaker 2: You got who bucked up?
Speaker 5: I thought some oil. Yeah, there was a couple of punches.
Speaker 3: Mikayla is wild.
Speaker 1: Can we just say, first of all, Mikayla is wild
Speaker 1: and mckayl we talked about this because now she's pulled
Speaker 1: your hair, she's punched in the face, and we talked
Speaker 1: about this and we had her on last week, like Mikayla.
Speaker 3: Will flip a switch. It reminds me of Laurel.
Speaker 1: Is the best I can describe it where when it
Speaker 1: comes to like, Okay, we're in this game, it doesn't
Speaker 1: matter who her bff is, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 3: Who she's buddies with.
Speaker 1: She because when Desi was trying to get I think
Speaker 1: it was Michelle out at one point or something, Mikayla
Speaker 1: like kind of looked over and then pushed Desi at
Speaker 1: was like sure, this seems useful, and I'm like, damn,
Speaker 1: that's your girl, and you just yeah, it's really yeah,
Speaker 1: really interesting.
Speaker 4: I'm grateful that I have years of experience playing like
Speaker 4: soccer and have the ability to remain calm in those moments.
Speaker 2: But I promise you when I come back next time,
Speaker 2: game on what the fuck is that a threat? Game on?
Speaker 3: Patricia? Is that a I think?
Speaker 4: Listen, all I'm saying is I didn't know I got
Speaker 4: punched until watching it back, and now all bets are off.
Speaker 1: So that's the thing that pissed you off more than
Speaker 1: seeing them all talk about. Actually, before you enter that, Tory,
Speaker 1: I want to hear Tyler's take on it. So Tyler,
Speaker 1: now we know that Tory was came out on top
Speaker 1: on a couple of the individual challenges, right, and she
Speaker 1: made an agreement with the Secret Garden or I calmed
Speaker 1: Desney Schout to say that she like wouldn't vote them in, right,
Speaker 1: and she didn't. She helps you to that work that
Speaker 1: we see Mikayla win twice and both last week when
Speaker 1: Mikayla won, the first name she was considered was Toy.
Speaker 2: The other girls pretty much had to talk her down.
Speaker 1: This week, she's going for Toy, and then we see
Speaker 1: the other girls go, what do you think about that
Speaker 1: sort of strategy given that just a few weeks prior
Speaker 1: they had all given their word and Tory held up
Speaker 1: her into the bargain, like.
Speaker 3: Would you have played similarly? Just what are your thoughts
Speaker 3: to someone who was in the house.
Speaker 7: I mean, I.
Speaker 5: Don't know, It's hard to tell.
Speaker 7: Like really, Mikayla honestly plays her own game and she
Speaker 7: will always play her own game at the end of
Speaker 7: the day, like she had her.
Speaker 5: People and I can understand it.
Speaker 7: It was like, even after she's talked with the Secret
Speaker 7: Garden and they were like, nah, she still goes right
Speaker 7: in denominations like hey, let's do Toy. Oh yeah, Corey
Speaker 7: to talk her out of it by saying no. So
Speaker 7: I feel like Tory Corey like Corey had you right there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, like and I knew that.
Speaker 4: Corey came up to me after and he basically told
Speaker 4: me immediately what had happened. And I walked up to
Speaker 4: Mikayla and I was like, hey, so I heard you
Speaker 4: were trying to throw my name out there, and she
Speaker 4: was like, you know, I was just it was exactly
Speaker 4: what she had said to me on the podcast. She
Speaker 4: was like, I was just going over all my options,
Speaker 4: which is definitely not what's happening.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it seemed like.
Speaker 2: That was an option.
Speaker 3: It seemed like you were the main Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 4: And you know, so when you're in the house, you
Speaker 4: try to take everything with a grain of salt. I
Speaker 4: try to take or he said, with a grain of salt.
Speaker 4: I try to take what she said. I'm trying to
Speaker 4: just analyze it, but ultimately listen, like I get it.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to squeeze.
Speaker 4: My way into an alliance that is pre existing, Like
Speaker 4: these girls had been working together from the jump. I
Speaker 4: was doing anything and everything. I'm getting punched in the face,
Speaker 4: I'm getting jumped. I'm still trying to work with them.
Speaker 4: I don't care because at this point in the game,
Speaker 4: I'm the only girl who's technically a challenge legend or
Speaker 4: whatever you want.
Speaker 2: To call us.
Speaker 4: So Michelle kind of like you know, glides those lines,
Speaker 4: and we see it a little bit in this episode
Speaker 4: because she obviously doesn't vote my name in there, but like, still,
Speaker 4: I was doing everything I could to get in there,
Speaker 4: and I think they they were kind of just like
Speaker 4: still sticking with the original plan of let's ride Sucregarden
Speaker 4: all the way to the end.
Speaker 2: So I get it. I see it lot.
Speaker 1: She would agree, but she also seemed like she was
Speaker 1: throwing in her own alliance a bit because Desi and
Speaker 1: Chanelle had a good point, which is like, if your
Speaker 1: name gets brought up, everybody's gonna throw in the tougher.
Speaker 1: They're not gonna think Cassidy stands a chance against Toy.
Speaker 1: Let's just be real, So people are gonna likely vote
Speaker 1: for Chanelle or Desi people who want to vote that way,
Speaker 1: So let's talk about voting a little bit, because yeah,
Speaker 1: we see it was a very different episode than last
Speaker 1: week where she and Fessi, Mikayla and Fessei came to
Speaker 1: a great compromise together and Fessi was sort of being
Speaker 1: nurturing in an interesting way, and this time it looked
Speaker 1: like Corey and Mikayla about to jump across the table.
Speaker 1: It looked like I was watching a couple who needed therapy.
Speaker 1: So were you guys surprised to see that they had
Speaker 1: so much discord when they were doing like did Tyler,
Speaker 1: did you have any idea that there was sort of
Speaker 1: this like battle going on behind the scenes.
Speaker 7: I mean, it was interesting because Corey and Mikaylab both
Speaker 7: came to me beforehand and told me that neither of
Speaker 7: them wanted me in.
Speaker 5: And so wait what I was, Yeah, both of them
Speaker 5: like right for no.
Speaker 7: Reason, like right before they reason, right, just for no reason.
Speaker 5: And then the first first name that.
Speaker 7: I know, I was like, just tell me, like you're
Speaker 7: good at the ball is going to be up there
Speaker 7: in five seconds.
Speaker 5: Anyway, did you say something?
Speaker 1: Did you confront them about it afterwards? Or at least
Speaker 1: you say, hey, man, like yeah, we.
Speaker 5: Had a conversation and they both blamed each.
Speaker 7: Other someone, So whatever it is, it is cowards.
Speaker 4: All right, guys, we have to take a quick break,
Speaker 4: so we'll be right back after this. What I want
Speaker 4: to know, Tyler is like, you know, obviously you had
Speaker 4: fest and Josh technically big brother, but like you were
Speaker 4: up now and potentially could have gone into elimination as
Speaker 4: well as Cassidy, and they had the opportunity to still
Speaker 4: make it a girl's day, but they decided to make
Speaker 4: it a guy's day by putting all the balls on Chris.
Speaker 2: What did you feel like to watch that back?
Speaker 7: Honestly, I kind of it's inspected it Like I kind
Speaker 7: of thought the guys might see me as like the
Speaker 7: smallest guy left in the house, as a you know,
Speaker 7: and as somebody who they could throw in an elimination with,
Speaker 7: throw me and Chris against each other. And then at
Speaker 7: that point we didn't know like that could have been
Speaker 7: the final, like right after that, you know. So it's
Speaker 7: like if they had the opportunity then and it wasn't
Speaker 7: one of them to you know, get the last guy
Speaker 7: out maybe before the final, then I could understand why why.
Speaker 5: They would do it.
Speaker 7: And it was kind of hard for them, I could
Speaker 7: tell to vote for a girl in that scenario.
Speaker 5: But so I didn't really press them too much on it.
Speaker 7: And like I said, I was in the mindset that
Speaker 7: was like, yo, just throw me in there against anybody.
Speaker 7: I'll just win my way to the final and that's
Speaker 7: the only way I'm going to get there. So I
Speaker 7: really wasn't like I really wasn't going around that last
Speaker 7: week trying to be.
Speaker 5: Like, oh man, make it a girl's day please. Like
Speaker 5: I was just like, do what you guys got to do,
Speaker 5: and if I got to go in there and win,
Speaker 5: I'll go in there and win.
Speaker 1: So would you say you approached that day kind of
Speaker 1: expecting to go in a little bit or.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I I've been expecting to go into
Speaker 7: the elimination for about three months straight. Now They've come
Speaker 7: from from the beginning, So it was just another day
Speaker 7: of the office, let's go.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Did you like looking back on it now, do you
Speaker 4: wish that you would have tried to politic.
Speaker 2: A little harder?
Speaker 7: Not really, because if it if it didn't happen that time,
Speaker 7: it was probably going to be me against somebody else
Speaker 7: the next week anyway.
Speaker 5: Like so it was pretty much just I was in
Speaker 5: the mindset.
Speaker 7: Where I had to win to get there and that
Speaker 7: was it, and that was the only way I thought
Speaker 7: I would deserve it anyway, Like I thought this, I
Speaker 7: like to play this game, like you got.
Speaker 5: To earn your way there.
Speaker 7: By going in the sand and getting to the end,
Speaker 7: like I'm not going to do too much politic and
Speaker 7: to avoid it, I want to take this head on.
Speaker 1: You know, that's one way to play Tyler way, that's
Speaker 1: one way to Some people.
Speaker 3: Played other ways, but yes, that is that is correct
Speaker 3: one way to do it. Do either of you guys
Speaker 3: think that this.
Speaker 1: Voting thing because I feel like, you know, it's interesting
Speaker 1: because last season, I feel like voting was messy all
Speaker 1: the time, Like it was really messy, and I feel
Speaker 1: like this season we're now kind of starting to see
Speaker 1: it get messy. And I think it's also because even
Speaker 1: those who didn't make it to algebra two can do
Speaker 1: the math of who's voting for who at this point because.
Speaker 3: There's so few of you guys left.
Speaker 1: Do you guys think that the voting in this particular
Speaker 1: episode is going to backfire on people like a Michelle
Speaker 1: even like a Desier Chanelle or Chris, Like, what do
Speaker 1: you anticipate without spoilers? And Tyler, I know you left
Speaker 1: the house, Ohtho, I'm sure you've heard things in Torre.
Speaker 1: I know you're still in the house, But in general,
Speaker 1: what would you kind of expect to be the backlash
Speaker 1: or how that's gonna shake up dynamics now moving forward.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think this is why you stick to
Speaker 2: your word, right.
Speaker 4: I think it's because you don't know what's gonna happen,
Speaker 4: and if you don't have a really ironed out plan,
Speaker 4: then do yourself a favor and just don't lie, because
Speaker 4: the worst thing that's gonna happen is now you've exposed
Speaker 4: your cards for no reason. And if you're gonna expose
Speaker 4: your cards, let it be with good, you know. So
Speaker 4: I think there are large repercussions coming our way.
Speaker 7: And they kind of they had you guys had Chris Shuk.
Speaker 7: Whoever voted for Chris, they had Chris Shuk. Chris came
Speaker 7: to me like, right when we were done with the elimination, like,
Speaker 7: who told you to vote for me?
Speaker 5: I'm like, Chris, I didn't vote for you.
Speaker 7: He's like, what I voted for Chanel? Dude, Like somebody's
Speaker 7: messing with you back there. You better go stir some
Speaker 7: stuff up. So I know he was not happy after that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Tyler, why did you vote for Chanel?
Speaker 7: I voted for Chanel just because it was a female
Speaker 7: that hadn't been down in the stand yet, and I thought,
Speaker 7: and every single other girl had either nominated me or
Speaker 7: thro me, and so I'm like, I knowed these girls anything,
Speaker 7: So I'm just gonna see if Chanelle could go down
Speaker 7: there and Arna.
Speaker 3: What do you mean, Tyler, No, I'm just seizing it.
Speaker 7: I told beforehand too, I'm like, you know, you just
Speaker 7: get ready. I didn't really know what else to do.
Speaker 4: So, yeah, do you wish that you would have thrown
Speaker 4: your ball on me just to even it out, so
Speaker 4: therefore I would have gone in.
Speaker 2: Do you wish you could go back.
Speaker 3: And do that?
Speaker 7: Nah, Sweetart, I told you I wasn't going to vote
Speaker 7: for you that time.
Speaker 5: So I'm like, I just try to stick to my
Speaker 5: word the whole time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you really did.
Speaker 4: You were You were a really good soul about that,
Speaker 4: like truly like, and that's why I was blown away
Speaker 4: by your like after you were gone, Like, I don't
Speaker 4: think that we realized like the kind soul we had
Speaker 4: existing in the house with us, because we were all
Speaker 4: so busy playing the game and then like you forget
Speaker 4: you know, we're real, real humans with real stories, and
Speaker 4: some people in here are fucking lying and the other
Speaker 4: ones are just being nice and going in for their girlfriends,
Speaker 4: Like it's just it's just the polarity is crazy.
Speaker 7: Well, I feel like because I wasn't saying that much
Speaker 7: to people, people just assumed I was talking behind their backs,
Speaker 7: which and then I started getting nominated in votes.
Speaker 5: Like every day, like oh maybe I should, you know,
Speaker 5: actually talk some game and not just be nice for
Speaker 5: a little bit.
Speaker 3: Who did you like the least or not vibe with
Speaker 3: the most? Tyler in the house.
Speaker 5: You know, I can't be answering those questions, Tyler.
Speaker 1: The theme of this podcast is don't overthink it just overshare.
Speaker 3: So no, what did you not vibe with? It doesn't
Speaker 3: mean they're a bad person.
Speaker 1: Different people vibe with different people differently, and it doesn't
Speaker 1: make one right or wrong. It just means some people
Speaker 1: really mess and click other people don't. Who do you
Speaker 1: feel like you just didn't really vibe with?
Speaker 7: I feel like I will say at the beginning, I
Speaker 7: was so scared of bananas, Like it was like trying
Speaker 7: to communicate with an alien, Like I.
Speaker 5: Just didn't know how to talk. Still like that, like
Speaker 5: it's still like that.
Speaker 7: Eventually we were able to like figure each other out,
Speaker 7: but we would like just kind of look at each
Speaker 7: other funny and then like just go the opposite way.
Speaker 7: We probably didn't have a conversation until like a week
Speaker 7: and a half, like our energies are just so different.
Speaker 5: But then we finally were able to like come together
Speaker 5: and be friends. And now we're friends. But at the beginning,
Speaker 5: I was like, yeah, I don't know who to for,
Speaker 5: but I'm scared of this banana guy. He might be
Speaker 5: a reptilian.
Speaker 6: What about you?
Speaker 4: We were trying to figure out if you were a
Speaker 4: reptilian because Tyler's got those like really green eyes and
Speaker 4: like doesn't speak too much every now and then, like.
Speaker 2: It's a fly. No he doesn't.
Speaker 4: I'm just kidding, no, but like you're so quiet, your
Speaker 4: demeanors so kind of like, so I was trying to
Speaker 4: figure out, like is he playing a big brother or
Speaker 4: is he reptilian?
Speaker 7: I will figure I'm completely convinced that you nominated me
Speaker 7: because you thought I was reptilian, and every time I
Speaker 7: told you I didn't know what that meant, you believed
Speaker 7: me even less.
Speaker 3: Story, that's why you got jumped in this episode to.
Speaker 5: Exactly what.
Speaker 1: Other behind the scenes info. So we always like our
Speaker 1: guests to share. We call it our little version of
Speaker 1: bts of something that happened in the house that viewers
Speaker 1: didn't get to see or don't know because obviously they
Speaker 1: have to cut down. You know, they're filming you guys
Speaker 1: for hours on hours and hours, and we get to
Speaker 1: see an hour long episode. So there's so much. But
Speaker 1: is there something else surprising, whether it be funny a
Speaker 1: moment where you really bonded with someone but we didn't
Speaker 1: get to see that, or a fight even between someone else,
Speaker 1: or whatever that we didn't see in the house but
Speaker 1: that you actually feel was either really interesting or actually
Speaker 1: low key shifted the dynamics of the game.
Speaker 7: I feel like there were quite a few fights that
Speaker 7: we haven't seen that really we're amazing by the way
Speaker 7: they were amazing.
Speaker 5: I don't want to get into those too much.
Speaker 3: But what were they all? Like silly stuff or actual game?
Speaker 1: Because I've been in the Challenge house where people literally
Speaker 1: are fighting over hot sauce packets and like, who ate
Speaker 1: the last piece of lamb? No joke shout out to Nannie.
Speaker 1: So what were they people fighting over in the house.
Speaker 5: I don't know, just anything. I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 7: I didn't really watch the Challenge too much before coming in,
Speaker 7: like so I didn't know I didn't know Amanda. And
Speaker 7: when Michelle's name was read on that very first hopper
Speaker 7: boat and Amanda.
Speaker 5: And Michelle just started screaming at each other. I was like,
Speaker 5: where am I get me out of here? I am
Speaker 5: terrified right now.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Other than that, I feel like like mine and Manti's elimination,
Speaker 7: I don't know that did not even do a justice
Speaker 7: because that's three hours they probably, I don't know, what
Speaker 7: would you say to our balls probably fell Mine probably
Speaker 7: felt like twenty times. Manti's probably felt like fifteen times.
Speaker 7: Our pyramids of balls like fully stacked. That was just
Speaker 7: that took a lot out of me. That probably took
Speaker 7: out It took like four days out of me after that,
Speaker 7: like off my life, Like I couldn't even you know,
Speaker 7: when you like try to get out of bed and
Speaker 7: you're like pretty sore and it's just like kind of hurts.
Speaker 7: The next day after that, I tried to lift my
Speaker 7: body and I physically could not.
Speaker 5: Move, like couldn't move.
Speaker 7: I think DESI had to like pull me out of bed,
Speaker 7: and then we go on a boat tour and drink
Speaker 7: Vodica all day.
Speaker 5: I'm like I know, I might pass away, I might
Speaker 5: die today.
Speaker 2: What was the strategy for you winning?
Speaker 1: Because that was pretty epic, by the way, And Monty
Speaker 1: said he still has marks from the harness you guys
Speaker 1: were wearing, like on his skin.
Speaker 3: Do you do you you have those same marks? And
Speaker 3: what was your strategy to win? Ultimately?
Speaker 7: I mean, after however many hours, I feel like I
Speaker 7: just completely reset and like took every ball off, and
Speaker 7: I realized that there was a ton of sand at
Speaker 7: the bottom that had built.
Speaker 5: Up from all the balls, and I wiped off.
Speaker 7: All the sand and like took a lot of time
Speaker 7: and started stacking him from there, and that ended.
Speaker 5: Up being the difference maker right there. It was just
Speaker 5: like the littlest thing, like two grains of.
Speaker 7: Sand, And I felt it was so bad for everyone,
Speaker 7: making you guys stand up there the whole time. Everyone
Speaker 7: had to like go get snacks and like take breaks,
Speaker 7: and then you guys were yelling at TJ anytime he
Speaker 7: like said something loud, Like anytime TJ would raise his voice,
Speaker 7: the balls would fall stopped talking.
Speaker 4: I know, yeah, it was really intense, but this goes
Speaker 4: back to your character, Tyler.
Speaker 2: There would be so many times when the balls would
Speaker 2: fall and.
Speaker 4: Tyler would be stacking his and You'd be like, just
Speaker 4: don't stop, Manty, you can do it, like literally cheering
Speaker 4: on Manty as he's stacking his balls.
Speaker 2: I'm like, who who?
Speaker 5: We only know how to guess each other up, That's
Speaker 5: all I'm how to do.
Speaker 2: It was sweet, man, it was really sweet. It sucks.
Speaker 2: So what did you think about that compared to this elimination?
Speaker 4: Like obviously this one was a lot shorter, but you know,
Speaker 4: what was it like to do it?
Speaker 2: What was your strategy going into it?
Speaker 5: Right? Happy?
Speaker 3: Like shorter?
Speaker 5: Like yeah, I was happy it was shorter.
Speaker 7: I think I was a part of the longest elimination
Speaker 7: so far, in the shortest so it was like it
Speaker 7: was just a full out sprint, a full out sprint.
Speaker 5: I felt good after that first round. I definitely felt good.
Speaker 7: I'm pretty sure the tester said the average was like
Speaker 7: ten minutes, so I'm like, oh, I'm pretty sure. I
Speaker 7: just did it in like under two, like under three,
Speaker 7: So I'm feeling good. And then I was stumbling with
Speaker 7: the barrels on that second round, Like my ankles got
Speaker 7: so cut up in that first round.
Speaker 5: I don't know if they showed it, but I still.
Speaker 7: Have like scars all over my ankles in my knees,
Speaker 7: like I was bleeding everywhere from.
Speaker 3: From stopping from barrel to barrel.
Speaker 7: Like yeah, I was like yeah, I was like going
Speaker 7: on my shins and my knees to like move them
Speaker 7: back and forth, and there was like grip tape, like
Speaker 7: skateboard grip tape on them, and it absolutely shredded my
Speaker 7: my shins and everything.
Speaker 5: So I still have scars.
Speaker 4: You what, I'm what I was trying to figure out
Speaker 4: from the stands, was the defensive barrels heavier than the
Speaker 4: offensive barrels?
Speaker 3: Good question.
Speaker 7: They I don't know if they were heavier, but they
Speaker 7: they had like a different platform, so it was like
Speaker 7: the first when I was it, they were easier to
Speaker 7: grab than when I was running, Like just the place
Speaker 7: you stand on was a little bit different. I don't
Speaker 7: know what the difference was, but I was fumbling those
Speaker 7: things on that second one, and Chris was like a
Speaker 7: freight train, like you could just hear him like he
Speaker 7: went he went crazy on that, So props to him.
Speaker 3: Like major this was diesel in that for sure.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, when he locks it in, he's scary. When
Speaker 7: we did that, stare down. I was trying to, like,
Speaker 7: you know, be lighthearted about it, and he was looking
Speaker 7: into a place in my stole, but I don't even
Speaker 7: know if I could look into it.
Speaker 5: I was like, oh, God, murderment. I gotta get out here.
Speaker 2: Ye dude, he's a beast man.
Speaker 4: I think he had a lot to prove and he
Speaker 4: knows it, you know, and obviously you too.
Speaker 2: He was on the bottom of the barrel in terms
Speaker 2: of people wanting him like he was. He was absolutely insane.
Speaker 4: But watching it back, what was it like to leave,
Speaker 4: like where your spirit's high? Obviously you said you were
Speaker 4: really grateful, but like, I know how it feels to
Speaker 4: be eliminated. You know, it's hard, So like, what was
Speaker 4: it like to actually walk out of the game.
Speaker 5: It was hard.
Speaker 7: I mean I feel like because I it was, I
Speaker 7: feel like it would honestly be easier to leave like
Speaker 7: super early in some moments in some scenarios, because.
Speaker 5: It's like, all right, well, I guess I didn't really
Speaker 5: have what it takes to make it.
Speaker 7: But making it that close to the end with like
Speaker 7: that few people was definitely difficult.
Speaker 5: But at the same time.
Speaker 7: I feel like I played, I really played the game
Speaker 7: that I wanted to play like.
Speaker 5: I wanted to maintain my integrity. I wanted to you.
Speaker 7: Know, not be too much of like a manipulator, like
Speaker 7: a liar, and keep my word and keep my people.
Speaker 5: Safe as much as I could.
Speaker 7: And I don't know, I felt like it was tough
Speaker 7: to leave, But at the end of the day, I
Speaker 7: felt I felt good about about it, and I was
Speaker 7: just insanely grateful for the experience.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, oh, this is so good. You said you're
Speaker 1: rooting for Chris. Now you're anti.
Speaker 5: Sure my antide?
Speaker 3: Which girl are you rooting for? Now?
Speaker 5: That's tough.
Speaker 7: I was actually I feel like at the time I
Speaker 7: was rooting for Cassidy just because she seemed like she
Speaker 7: was at the bottom of the barrel too.
Speaker 5: Yeah, And it was.
Speaker 7: Kind of like it was kind of like, all right,
Speaker 7: if she fights her way to the end and wins,
Speaker 7: then she for sure deserves it. So I as a
Speaker 7: bottom feet of myself, I ha for the other bottom
Speaker 7: feeders in this scenario, but everyone was a beast.
Speaker 5: And from this point on it was like you really don't.
Speaker 7: Know who who to win, like, or who's gonna win,
Speaker 7: because any anybody left could possibly take this game, so
Speaker 7: I knew it was about to get good.
Speaker 3: Yeah, what surprised? Do you more?
Speaker 1: Chris winning this particular elimination, or Cassidy and Michelle making
Speaker 1: out that night.
Speaker 5: I feel like I saw that in the corner of
Speaker 5: my eye and I started freaking out.
Speaker 7: I don't know if they showed that, but everyone was
Speaker 7: so lit that night.
Speaker 5: Were for no reason, like.
Speaker 3: You do a headstand?
Speaker 2: Like who I was.
Speaker 4: Cassidy was trying to get back in her good graces.
Speaker 5: How you do it? Okay, it must have worked.
Speaker 6: Yes, she popped on a handstand absolutely.
Speaker 2: Like mom, sorry, I can't believe they showed it.
Speaker 4: Well, you know, because they say all the CBS kids
Speaker 4: are like, oh, they're never going to show any of
Speaker 4: this at CBS, everything's getting cuts.
Speaker 2: I'm like, all right, I'm just gonna go boy my
Speaker 2: booty on. Somebody shown.
Speaker 3: I mean, I was impressed you didn't fall over, so
Speaker 3: I gotta be props.
Speaker 5: For that because she was up there for a while too.
Speaker 5: For a while I was impressed. I'm like, thing about
Speaker 5: to pass out.
Speaker 2: I know, dude, Thank god I didn't have any gas.
Speaker 2: I'm just kidding that. I'm just terrible.
Speaker 1: And that concludes this episode of the.
Speaker 5: Trauma.
Speaker 3: Oh man, do.
Speaker 2: You think that you would do another season?
Speaker 5: Tyler? Oh? For sure.
Speaker 7: That was so much fun, Like compared to Big Brother,
Speaker 7: this was like so much more fun. I was way
Speaker 7: better at Big Brother, but this was way more fun.
Speaker 7: Like we could go outside, like, oh, it was the best.
Speaker 7: It was just the coolest experience ever.
Speaker 5: I see why you'd be doing this Liken times a year.
Speaker 6: Yeah, why is it more fun Tyler?
Speaker 1: Because you mentioned like going outside, because you're able to
Speaker 1: interact with more people, Like what about the challenge?
Speaker 3: Did you resonate with more find more fun?
Speaker 7: It just seems more like like real life. I guess then,
Speaker 7: Like there's like we take breaks away from the game,
Speaker 7: and that's the part that when I play these games,
Speaker 7: I just I get so deep into it and it
Speaker 7: takes me.
Speaker 5: A while to come out.
Speaker 7: So the fact that we can kind of take breaks
Speaker 7: and everybody's like a genuine human. And the physical side,
Speaker 7: like I love doing things like that, like doing crazy
Speaker 7: physical things and pushing myself.
Speaker 3: So beating Tyler, you like beating people?
Speaker 5: Yeah? I love wrestling, Jonathan. It's any chance I get,
Speaker 5: and this was my chance.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you did a great You did a great job
Speaker 3: question for both of you.
Speaker 1: Did you still smell like oil for days or weeks afterwards?
Speaker 1: Because in Battle of the Seasons too, we did an
Speaker 1: oil challenge. Ours was one on one, so nobody got jumped, thankfully.
Speaker 1: But I know that our uniforms never came back smelling normal.
Speaker 1: They smelled like oil the rest of the time. My
Speaker 1: wig never came back smelling It smelled like whale the
Speaker 1: rest of the time.
Speaker 3: Was that true for you all this time?
Speaker 2: I think we smelled like oil.
Speaker 5: We did. My hair was never the same.
Speaker 4: Yeah, But also I will say this, like on our
Speaker 4: off days when the sun was nice fast, he would
Speaker 4: literally go into the kitchen and get the olive oil
Speaker 4: and stop it on his body to with it.
Speaker 5: He's been doing that since big brother. I'm over that.
Speaker 5: I thought somebody like told you that's gotta be bad
Speaker 5: for you.
Speaker 3: But he's trying to be a rotuserie chicken on the challenge.
Speaker 7: He's rotating out there like, oh yeah, you're gonna burn,
Speaker 7: You're gonna be twenty days cam in a second, dude.
Speaker 3: That's how he gets the ladies. That's his I guess
Speaker 3: good sauce right there, little olive salt and pepper.
Speaker 5: Kiss little seasoning.
Speaker 2: Yeah, God, that's.
Speaker 3: Right, Torri.
Speaker 2: Nope, we're gonna move. We're gonna keep a moving.
Speaker 3: Speaking of moving.
Speaker 1: Tyler, are you and Alyssa any closer to moving in together? Like,
Speaker 1: when's the status of your relationship?
Speaker 5: Well, Alyssa and I are just friends.
Speaker 7: Sorry to break it to everybody, but Alyssa and our
Speaker 7: friends we're still tight though to this day.
Speaker 5: But what happened?
Speaker 3: What happened?
Speaker 5: Nothing happened.
Speaker 7: It's just like I feel like we just weren't at
Speaker 7: the point where one to like be in a relationships.
Speaker 7: But we do have like a really strong friendship and
Speaker 7: a bond and like we talk to each other all
Speaker 7: the time.
Speaker 5: So definitely grateful for that.
Speaker 1: Is there a possibility that you guys could spin the
Speaker 1: block at any point?
Speaker 3: Do you know that?
Speaker 5: No? Probably not.
Speaker 3: When do you go there's no possibility?
Speaker 5: Okay, but maybe explain to me what it means first.
Speaker 2: Okay, here we go.
Speaker 1: All right, So spin the block is basically means like
Speaker 1: go back around, drive back around, like come like, try
Speaker 1: it one more time, reconnect, pulling Nelly in a shanty.
Speaker 3: You may not get that reference either, but they're back together.
Speaker 7: You know that I mean, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 7: I feel like we're definitely really good as friends right now.
Speaker 7: So we'll just we'll ride that for a little bit.
Speaker 3: That's fair.
Speaker 1: You always need bring you guys, look though, like a
Speaker 1: really genuinely supportive, compatible couple. She also looked like she
Speaker 1: was your type, whereas like some couples you see in
Speaker 1: the Challenge House, you look at them and you were
Speaker 1: scratching your head all season long, being like how did
Speaker 1: that work? Like I don't know, I wasn't gonna say
Speaker 1: any names, and I was gonna say any names about
Speaker 1: either of the hosts of this show, but Tyler, it
Speaker 1: am guilty of the for a very long time ago.
Speaker 1: But but you guys, legit seemed like, oh this could
Speaker 1: like this makes sense, like this could ride in real life,
Speaker 1: and so it's interesting. And word on the street from
Speaker 1: a birdie was, weren't y'all just on a trip on
Speaker 1: vacation somewhere together or something?
Speaker 5: I think there was a we all went from Miami together.
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, so she was there, you were there, he was.
Speaker 5: There, and I was there and it was a great time.
Speaker 2: Sounds no, I avoided that trip on purpose. I was like, no,
Speaker 2: I'm not doing that. I left.
Speaker 4: I had to leave the city. I said, I'm not
Speaker 4: getting wrapped up in this. I already know I can't
Speaker 4: be part of another vacation alliance. I knew my alliance.
Speaker 2: Will ban me.
Speaker 4: No, I hadn't even know that. I literally had to
Speaker 4: be with my family. But it looked like an amazing trip.
Speaker 4: I had major, major FOMA watching you guys hang out,
Speaker 4: and I'm glad that you guys are still friends because like, yeah,
Speaker 4: you you get close to people, it feels.
Speaker 2: Very real when you're there, and then reality kicks in.
Speaker 4: We go back to our lives, and don't you guys
Speaker 4: live like a country apart, doesn't She Isn't she in.
Speaker 5: Florida and you're in La.
Speaker 7: I'm in South Carolina, she's in Florida. So I guess
Speaker 7: it's a small it's a small country. There are countries
Speaker 7: that big.
Speaker 2: It's not far.
Speaker 5: It's all good.
Speaker 1: Well, we're rooting for your joy and happiness regardless, and
Speaker 1: saying with Alissa s is also it was cool just
Speaker 1: to see you step up and show yourself in that
Speaker 1: way in the Challenge House. And so I'd imagine anyone
Speaker 1: who's your friend is lucky to be in that position
Speaker 1: anyone who dates you in the future. Also, if you
Speaker 1: show those same characteristics in trait low key over here,
Speaker 1: I will still be rooting for you and it listen
Speaker 1: to ask, but at least until the next season of
Speaker 1: the Challenge, but happy that you guys were able to
Speaker 1: maintain a good friendship.
Speaker 3: Before we go.
Speaker 1: Tyler, what's one thing you would want people to know
Speaker 1: about you that you feel like they haven't gotten to
Speaker 1: know this season or even on your season a Big Brother, Like,
Speaker 1: what's one thing you want to leave the people with.
Speaker 5: I mean, that's tough. That's tough.
Speaker 3: I feel like why I asked it.
Speaker 7: I know, I feel like Big Brother and the Challenge,
Speaker 7: you've seen a lot of different versions of.
Speaker 5: Me, Like, I don't know, I feel like the Challenge
Speaker 5: I just wanted to be as authentic as I am
Speaker 5: right now.
Speaker 7: And like in Big Brother in the past, like I've
Speaker 7: played the whole like manipulating game, Like I've played the
Speaker 7: whole like lining game behind the scenes, and it just
Speaker 7: didn't feel good at the end of the day.
Speaker 5: Even though I like succeeded in it, I didn't win.
Speaker 5: So I'm like, all right, maybe maybe.
Speaker 7: That missing pieces for me, just just like be myself
Speaker 7: and be as authentic as I could.
Speaker 5: So that's what I try to bring into this game.
Speaker 7: And I feel better about the challenge than I do
Speaker 7: about like Big Brother, when I did way better. So
Speaker 7: I don't know, if anything, Just be your authentic selves
Speaker 7: and it can get you farther than and you think
Speaker 7: it can't.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean, your authentic reptilian.
Speaker 5: Yep, just own your reptilians.
Speaker 1: Let me find out we're the guy on the plane
Speaker 1: next to that lady who got up and was screamed.
