Speaker 1: Two Teas in a Pod, which Teddy Mellencamp at camera.
Speaker 2: Judge, Hi, guys, welcome to another episode of to Teas
Speaker 2: in a Pod. We are recapping Traders episode five and.
Speaker 1: Say I get two of them for the price of one.
Speaker 2: Two for the pass of one. I want to make
Speaker 2: sure to let the listeners know that we are recapping
Speaker 2: two episodes, starting with the one that aired right after
Speaker 2: Bob was banished. So Jack Queen, Yeah, if you're not
Speaker 2: up to date, we don't want to do any spoilers,
Speaker 2: so do your due diligence. But it starts out the
Speaker 2: Traders meet at the turret after Bob the Drag Queen
Speaker 2: is banished. Carolyn thinks his banishment had to do with
Speaker 2: Rob's ego and his desire to control the game.
Speaker 1: Absolutely for sure.
Speaker 2: Then Danielle knows they need to get banished, but they
Speaker 2: have to do it when he least suspects it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's happening. It's happening. These Traders are too busy
Speaker 1: fighting amongst themselves. They would be working together. I've never
Speaker 1: seen I mean, obviously it is only a third season
Speaker 1: of it, but I don't know if they do that
Speaker 1: on the other Traders like the UK ones. These girls,
Speaker 1: these two girls, they're just letting him steamroll right over
Speaker 1: them in the turn.
Speaker 2: Because they're too busy trying to steamroll each other. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's not going to work out well.
Speaker 1: I think that most of the the traders will be
Speaker 1: gone really soon and they're gonna have to bring in
Speaker 1: new ones.
Speaker 2: Yeah, which at this point I wouldn't be bummed because
Speaker 2: I'm kind of sick of seeing Danielle cry. Then, so
Speaker 2: everyone arrives at breakfast the next morning. Carolyn is all
Speaker 2: over the place. So Danielle is unsure if they can
Speaker 2: work together to get Boston Rob out.
Speaker 1: Carolyn's face faces that she makes are hilarious.
Speaker 2: It's not beneficial that she has like one eyelash extension,
Speaker 2: still holding on for dear life.
Speaker 1: Oh, she like she's a character. She just seems like
Speaker 1: a caricature character. Caricature, but she she just seems like
Speaker 1: she's so good for reality TV because of all the
Speaker 1: faces and how dramatic and she's she's something else.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Then she tried to get her on the pod.
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's get her on the pod. Then we see
Speaker 2: that Robin was murdered, and Dolores figured she's next Wes
Speaker 2: suspects Rob is a trader, so Rob has a conversation
Speaker 2: with him. Wes then denies the accusation, saying he was
Speaker 2: complimenting Rob for knowing Bob was a trader. Wes knows
Speaker 2: Rob is a trader, but he has to be careful
Speaker 2: before making his move. Dan Yelle decides she's going to
Speaker 2: throw Carolyn under the bus because she can't trust her.
Speaker 1: I don't understand why Boss and Rob wanted to murder Robin.
Speaker 1: Is it because she was outspoken? Maybe?
Speaker 2: I don't. I think he's trying to make people think
Speaker 2: he's like out for the housewives, even though it's very
Speaker 2: clear that none of them are traders.
Speaker 1: But the thing is, she was outspoken, but she was
Speaker 1: off on every single person she thought was a trader.
Speaker 1: I think it was kind of a stupid move.
Speaker 2: I thought it was. But know what, Carolyn kind of
Speaker 2: reminds me of what, you know, those like roomba vacuums
Speaker 2: that like get out of their mind when they get
Speaker 2: like stuck under like the.
Speaker 1: Not a roomba, like under the.
Speaker 2: Like where your oven is, and it's like no.
Speaker 1: No, no, I see more. It's like her coattails are
Speaker 1: stuck in a room, but she's like, yeah, she's so
Speaker 1: she has so much expression it cracks me up. I
Speaker 1: think that Carolyn and Danielle should work together to get
Speaker 1: rob out because they can't trust them. But you can't.
Speaker 1: I feel like, you can't trust We can't trust anybody,
Speaker 1: but Danielle.
Speaker 2: No, I mean, you can't trust anybody. And then Danielle
Speaker 2: is so full of it, like I feel like I
Speaker 2: would be able to trust Carolyn, but Danielle is just
Speaker 2: trying to play so many different games.
Speaker 1: The thing with Carolyn that throws people off is she's
Speaker 1: so animated all the time and so out there that
Speaker 1: they don't know is this just her or is she
Speaker 1: trying to hide that she's a trader?
Speaker 2: Like well, I think this is how she's always been
Speaker 2: on any reality show she's ever been on. But then
Speaker 2: today's mission takes place at a church. Alan will tell
Speaker 2: them a riddle and the players must guess the correct
Speaker 2: answer to receive twenty five hundred. There are two shields
Speaker 2: available for this mission as well. Tom Sandoval feels very
Speaker 2: confident with riddles because he's read Harry Potter and he's
Speaker 2: channeling Tom Riddle's energy. Today, Danielle gets a correct answer,
Speaker 2: and instead of putting herself up for the shield, she
Speaker 2: decides to put Dolores up, which then realizes this put
Speaker 2: it's like a target on her back. That was probably
Speaker 2: a stupid move, not a good move. Then Rob agrees
Speaker 2: he thinks it's a stupid move. She's telling everyone she
Speaker 2: feels safe. She removes Derek's picture, who was supposed to
Speaker 2: be her big brother alliance, and then Danielle gets another
Speaker 2: riddle correct and still doesn't put herself up for a shield.
Speaker 2: She puts Derek's picture up instead because.
Speaker 1: Because I think she got worried. Yeah, He's like, we're
Speaker 1: supposed to be teammates here and you're going after me?
Speaker 2: Like really, yeah, what the food?
Speaker 1: She tried to redeem herself, but yeah, but they.
Speaker 2: Can't even help herself. She asked Danielle if she's worried,
Speaker 2: aren't you worried You're going to get murdered? And then
Speaker 2: Danielle of course sheds a tear and starts to freak
Speaker 2: out because she realized her mistake. They all add fifteen
Speaker 2: thousand to the prize pot, and Dolores and Sierra end
Speaker 2: up with a shield. After this mission, Danielle knows she
Speaker 2: messed up, so she starts to throw Carolyn's name under
Speaker 2: the bus.
Speaker 1: Of all people, I just you're a fellow trader.
Speaker 2: But then Tom's analogy about Harry Potter is like saying
Speaker 2: you can run a bar just because he watched Cheers.
Speaker 1: Oh exactly. Tom talking about how good he'll be at
Speaker 1: this mission and then getting it wrong was very satisfying.
Speaker 1: I don't know what's worse, his outfits or his to
Speaker 1: everything that comes out of his mouth.
Speaker 2: I mean, the only thing dumber than Danielle getting a
Speaker 2: riddle correct and not putting herself up for a shield
Speaker 2: is doing the exact same thing a second time.
Speaker 1: I'm actually very shocked that Tom Sandoval is still in
Speaker 1: this I thought that people because he's not very well liked.
Speaker 1: I thought that people would just want to get rid
Speaker 1: of him just because he cheated on Ariana.
Speaker 2: I think people know he's not sorry, Tom smart enough
Speaker 2: to win this game, so he's not really a threat threat.
Speaker 1: Yeah, could be that.
Speaker 2: But then the players get back to the Castle. Danielle's
Speaker 2: pushing the Carolyn's a Trader narrative extremely hard, but people
Speaker 2: are having a tough time believing her. And then Krishelle
Speaker 2: thinks Nicki is a trader because of a face she
Speaker 2: made in the car on the right back, but she's
Speaker 2: conflicted because it's one of her best friends in the game.
Speaker 1: Wait, she calls, like, she's my best friend. I'm like,
Speaker 1: you've known her are week? Wait, you've known her.
Speaker 2: A week and you're already throwing her under the bus
Speaker 2: when I never for one second thought that Nicky was
Speaker 2: a trader or happy like a trader. I don't know.
Speaker 2: And then many other players decide they also suspect Nicki.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's funny how much Krishelle and Sandoval hate
Speaker 2: each other when they're both the worst players in this game.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, and Krishelle can fight in In Boston, Robb
Speaker 1: shows how good Boston Robb is, Like he's good at
Speaker 1: manipulation for sure, because he's believing him.
Speaker 2: Well, he's like pretty chill and kind of laid back
Speaker 2: and seems like a good advice giver.
Speaker 1: And to keep going after that Coffin theory, I think
Speaker 1: it's a little bit too predictable and like.
Speaker 2: I'm over it. The Coffin episode feels like sixty four
Speaker 2: episodes ago and nothing's happened. But it's time for the
Speaker 2: round table. And iv Aar who I always forgets on
Speaker 2: the show until we have a round table. He asked
Speaker 2: Rob to defend himself after his conviction of Bob the
Speaker 2: drag Queen last night. People believe Rob's lies. Nicky and
Speaker 2: Sierra start going after one another. Krishelle starts tearing up
Speaker 2: because she accuses Nicki of being a trader in front
Speaker 2: of everyone, and then Bob Harper turns the tables back
Speaker 2: on Rob. He knows him as a player and knows
Speaker 2: him to make big moves like voting out another trader.
Speaker 2: It's almost unanimous. Yeah, Krishelle and Gabby cry when they
Speaker 2: write her name down. Nicky is voted out and obviously
Speaker 2: she's a faithful.
Speaker 1: I mean, you can tell how bad Chrishelle felt, and
Speaker 1: I could say, speaking of experience, like you don't have
Speaker 1: a lot to go off of. So if somebody's making
Speaker 1: a weird face, you're like, oh my god, even though
Speaker 1: I'm so close to her, I think she is And
Speaker 1: it's it's a very it's hard, it's really hard.
Speaker 2: After the roundtable, Chrischelle, Gabby, and Sierra are crying. After
Speaker 2: the banishment, Derek and Wes are confident that Rob is
Speaker 2: a Trader, and then Dylan tells Carolyn that Danielle is
Speaker 2: putting her name out there. Of course Carolyn is pissed,
Speaker 2: and at this point none of the Traders trust one another.
Speaker 2: So and the other thing is Sam is basically just
Speaker 2: on this show for Burell. Shots of him showering, what
Speaker 2: I mean, what else? Why is he on here? I
Speaker 2: know because he's never going to get kicked out, because.
Speaker 1: Why he has one sentence next week? One sentence And
Speaker 1: I'm like, wow, he talked.
Speaker 2: Then the Traders meet and the turret. On episode six,
Speaker 2: Carolyn calls Danielle out for trying to get her banished.
Speaker 2: Danielle denies it. Rob tries to remind them that they
Speaker 2: need to work together, but Carolyn doesn't trust either of them,
Speaker 2: which she shouldn't, and then the only people she actually
Speaker 2: wants to murder are the two of them. Danielle says
Speaker 2: they are like a family, and he tells Carolyn she'll
Speaker 2: make things right tomorrow. Tonight it's between Ivar Wes and
Speaker 2: Bob h The Traders give each other a hug despite
Speaker 2: the tension between them, and then Carolyn admits she can
Speaker 2: take things personally sometimes.
Speaker 1: I think Danielle thinks she's way better than she truly is,
Speaker 1: Like as a gamer. She thought she convinced Carolyn, but
Speaker 1: Carolyn isn't falling for it.
Speaker 2: No, but everyone meeting in the turret kind of feels
Speaker 2: like a mini Housewives reunion every time.
Speaker 1: I don't get dressed like that.
Speaker 2: Well, if you're Jenna Lyons, you can. Right then everyone
Speaker 2: arrives at breakfast. Sierra is suspicious of both Danielle and
Speaker 2: Rob as traders. Derek believes if Rob is a truth faithful,
Speaker 2: he would have been murdered tonight. As soon as Rob
Speaker 2: walks through that door. He knows Rob is a trader.
Speaker 1: I agree.
Speaker 2: Why do I feel like, all of a sudden, like
Speaker 2: we're not seeing much of Like we're not like, where's
Speaker 2: Zach Effron's brother these days?
Speaker 1: We didn't get a lot of him this episode or
Speaker 1: last episode.
Speaker 2: I don't like it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he's smart. I like him. I don't want
Speaker 1: him to leave.
Speaker 2: I don't want him to go. I want to see
Speaker 2: it more of him. Though. Then Bob h was the
Speaker 2: murder victim last night. Danielle cries again for sure, No really,
Speaker 2: Danielle hates that she murdered him, but she feels like
Speaker 2: she needs to give Rob the power. Do you think
Speaker 2: they made the right decision murdering me?
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I do, because I think that he
Speaker 1: was smart enough that he was on to Rob right.
Speaker 1: And I think, you know, I don't know, but Sierra's
Speaker 1: picker is starting to be correct, so she might be
Speaker 1: going pretty soon too. I mean, I really wish they
Speaker 1: would just murder Sam because just a waste of space
Speaker 1: at this point.
Speaker 2: He doesn't why I murder him.
Speaker 1: He's just there, well, I know, wearing headbounds.
Speaker 2: Then everyone discusses strategy after breakfast, and Tom sanval is
Speaker 2: convinced that Dolores is a trader.
Speaker 1: Oh Tommy boy, you're barking up the wrong tree. She
Speaker 1: will eat you alive.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Then Brittany is sick of his crazy theories. I
Speaker 2: mean both Britney's even Britney Spears, who isn't watching this shit?
Speaker 2: She's sick of it.
Speaker 1: Do you think Britney Spears is watching?
Speaker 2: No? I don't think No, I don't. Do you think
Speaker 2: she's gonna come on the pod and we could talk
Speaker 2: about it.
Speaker 1: Let's ask her, Brittany.
Speaker 2: Then Bob is throwing out Wes's name and then direct
Speaker 2: Derek and Wes are working together to get Rob banished,
Speaker 2: and then Britney tells Carolyn that she knows she threw
Speaker 2: her name out, but Carolyn didn't do that. She knows
Speaker 2: it was Danielle who told her that.
Speaker 1: I love Dolores's comment. I hate to say it. I
Speaker 1: don't think Tom had a lot of attention in his
Speaker 1: younger years.
Speaker 2: I mean, Tom is so confidently and correct all the time,
Speaker 2: and his face is always yeah. I'm like, I miss
Speaker 2: when you were pitting out and not saying anything.
Speaker 1: I don't miss that at all, not saying anything. I
Speaker 1: don't want to see your pits.
Speaker 2: But then at the mission today there's a giant trader
Speaker 2: in the middle of the field. They have an opportunity
Speaker 2: to win thirty thousand by collecting enough gunpowder to destroy
Speaker 2: the twenty four foot trader, but everyone prioritizes getting a
Speaker 2: shield before retrieving gunpowder to win the money. Carolyn, Dylan,
Speaker 2: and Crosseelle receive shields. Derek isn't thrilled about this because
Speaker 2: he tried to do rock paper scissors and he lost.
Speaker 2: And then at.
Speaker 1: Least they at least they tried. They talked it out
Speaker 1: amongst themselves. How would you feel if somebody just grabbed
Speaker 1: the shield without even talking as a team.
Speaker 2: I know, I don't like that either.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like you're not a team player, and that's
Speaker 1: like you don't want to put that energy out there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that you're that selfish. Yeah, I mean, even though
Speaker 2: everyone is that selfish, you want to at least pretend
Speaker 2: you're not. But then everyone then Carolyn, Dylan, and Kroschelle
Speaker 2: after they received shields, Gabby tells Carolyn that Danielle is
Speaker 2: the one who's been setting her up. Carolyn is extremely pissed.
Speaker 2: She wants Danielle out. The players collect enough gunpowder to
Speaker 2: topple the trader they won, Like, I don't know, I
Speaker 2: think thirty thousand dollars. I'm like, it would take fifteen
Speaker 2: minutes of less challenge and fifteen more minutes of round table.
Speaker 1: Please.
Speaker 2: I'm more entertained by the round table, yeah, than I
Speaker 2: am by these challenges, because I'm like, what, oh, okay, okay.
Speaker 2: And then back at the castle, everyone's strategizing for the
Speaker 2: round table. Derek and Wes are aiming hard for Rob,
Speaker 2: while Rob is trying to plant seeds for Wes. Carolyn
Speaker 2: is also planning Danielle's name to get revenge, and then
Speaker 2: Krishelle warns Rob that his name is being thrown out
Speaker 2: like Chrishelle.
Speaker 1: But Boston. Rob is a good manipulator, so Krischelle, she's
Speaker 1: clearly fooled by him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but know what Chrishelle does. Well, she's a really
Speaker 2: good dresser.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah she is.
Speaker 2: She really cute, She's really cute. Then it's time for
Speaker 2: the round table. Dolores starts by addressing Sandoval's accusations against her.
Speaker 2: Sandoval embarrasses himself by providing dumb theories, and then Derek
Speaker 2: provides his case against Rob, but Rob comes back at
Speaker 2: him with a really good defense and he calls out
Speaker 2: Wes in the process. Wes's case against Rob is absolutely right,
Speaker 2: but people are going to go against him regardless because
Speaker 2: of his delivery.
Speaker 1: Do you think that Wes was too aggressive throughout the show?
Speaker 2: I did, I thought, especially at this roundtable.
Speaker 1: I mean, he definitely wasn't doing himself any favors. Try
Speaker 1: I mean to find himself.
Speaker 2: I think it's one thing to be aggressive, but it's
Speaker 2: another thing to be aggressive and like overly confident and
Speaker 2: like kind of a dick. And I think he did
Speaker 2: all of those things. So like, why would you want
Speaker 2: him to stay? It's like, Oh, you're the best game
Speaker 2: player that ever lived. I'm like on a show I
Speaker 2: didn't watch because there was forty.
Speaker 1: Seasons pan out very well for him. Well, it didn't
Speaker 1: work out.
Speaker 2: It didn't work out. But Wes messed up saying he
Speaker 2: has his on anyone who votes him out tonight. That
Speaker 2: didn't work well for other people in the past. I
Speaker 2: don't know why he thought that'd be a good idea
Speaker 2: for him, especially if he's the world's best game player
Speaker 2: to ever play any games. Then Carolyn speaks up. She
Speaker 2: says Wes is a scapegoat, and she calls out Danielle
Speaker 2: for being a trader.
Speaker 1: Loom big move Ben was a very big move.
Speaker 2: No one believes her, though. She starts to cry when
Speaker 2: making her case against Danielle and tells everyone that Jeremy
Speaker 2: warned her. Then it's time to vote, and the deciding
Speaker 2: factor of whether or not they will go to a
Speaker 2: tie or if Wes will be banished is based on Ciarra.
Speaker 2: Then she said she voted for Wes and he is
Speaker 2: a faithful He ends his speech with you guys with.
Speaker 1: A middle finger too right.
Speaker 2: You know what Wes is just a class act and
Speaker 2: so he's very classy, just keeping a classy Wes round table.
Speaker 2: Things get messy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Rob got through it by the skin of his teeth.
Speaker 1: But I don't think that Rob's going to be there
Speaker 1: next week.
Speaker 2: You don't. I think Daniel and Carolyn might like pull
Speaker 2: each other's eyelashes out, and one of them is going
Speaker 2: to go home before Rob.
Speaker 1: We'll see, should we make a bet on it?
Speaker 2: No? I don't pay off my bed, so why would
Speaker 2: we waste our time borrowed clothes? No, you don't either,
Speaker 2: so then I don't. Then Britney pulls Derek aside to
Speaker 2: yell at him for lying to her, and then he
Speaker 2: accuses her of being a trader. Now the traders have
Speaker 2: to meet in the turret, and it's going to get awkward.
Speaker 1: But you know, after watching the season so far, I've
Speaker 1: come to realize that being a gamer doesn't necessarily have
Speaker 1: mean you have an advantage on the show.
Speaker 2: It doesn't. Let I mean you've got to be a
Speaker 2: better liar to be a housewife. Yeah, I'm manipulator, manipulator,
Speaker 2: chess player, whatever you want to call it. And then
Speaker 2: now the traders, you know, they meet in the turret.
Speaker 2: Every single one of them is against one another. Rob
Speaker 2: doesn't know what to do, and Carolyn says they just
Speaker 2: need to go after Danielle. Danielle says she's going to
Speaker 2: fight back and has evidence against Carolyn that she'll.
Speaker 1: Use, Danielle saying, I don't want to murder anybody besides
Speaker 1: you two.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, these Traders are messier than like a
Speaker 2: Housewives cast trip after a couple espresso, Martinez.
Speaker 1: Right, It is making for an interesting twist to this
Speaker 1: season because you know, obviously they're going to bring in
Speaker 1: some new traders I would imagine here pretty soon. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but to see them arguing, we haven't seen that yet,
Speaker 1: so it's a little bit of a new twist that
Speaker 1: is true.
Speaker 2: Then coming up, Alan reveals that the Traders will be
Speaker 2: committing their murder face to face with their next victim.
Speaker 2: At this point, which trader do you think is playing
Speaker 2: the best game?
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know. I mean Rob plays a big game,
Speaker 1: good game, but I think now people are onto him.
Speaker 2: I think the thing is is Rob's the most likable.
Speaker 1: He is, yes, Carolyn, No, Danielle, I don't remember that
Speaker 1: anybody really suspects her.
Speaker 2: Right, m I mean I think Delores did for a
Speaker 2: little bit.
Speaker 1: And then Carolyn. She's so quirky that the only one
Speaker 1: putting her name out there is her fellow trader.
Speaker 2: Right. But this is all going to backfire because I
Speaker 2: think the other Brittany, I think she's like getting onto it.
Speaker 2: I think she's been quiet, but I think she's been
Speaker 2: quietly watching what's happening.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we got to see Sam talk at the round
Speaker 1: table what next week's episode? Week? It was like one sentence,
Speaker 1: what do you say? I can't remember? That's how That's
Speaker 1: how it was. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, I gotta say I love Traders. I love watching it.
Speaker 2: I'm curious who which traders are going to take each
Speaker 2: other down next because I feel like the faithfuls like
Speaker 2: it's pretty clear who the traders are.
Speaker 1: They need to get a trader out next week.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they do, and I think they will.
Speaker 1: I think they will too. Bye, rob Bye.
Speaker 2: I hope we say bye Danielle, but we'll see. Yeah.
Speaker 2: But thanks Tom, love you, love you
