Speaker 1: What's up friends.
Speaker 2: I'm Devin Simone and I am Davion Rogers and this
Speaker 2: is MTV's official Challenge podcast. We back again, y'all.
Speaker 1: Yes, we are back again with another fabulous episode that
Speaker 1: had emotion in it, nail minding, It had some math
Speaker 1: and some dad moments as well. This particular episode is
Speaker 1: brought to you by Jenny's commentary to herself. I appreciate
Speaker 1: her ability to self soothe while hanging home cidbeer building,
Speaker 1: but yes, all of it very funny. So in case
Speaker 1: you won a quick recap, right, So, we had the
Speaker 1: Leap of Faith where they were tasked with jumping off
Speaker 1: the side of a building and grabbing an individual flag.
Speaker 1: You didn't want to grab multiple flags though, because then
Speaker 1: you'd get a penalty. The teams did really well overall.
Speaker 1: Era three to one. Era four lost, but they did
Speaker 1: a really great job.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no one was like I'm just not doing it.
Speaker 2: No one quit because everyone knew that they were like
Speaker 2: the team. It was important you weren't just doing it
Speaker 2: for yourself, like this is for the team, and so
Speaker 2: I thought that was really really good.
Speaker 1: Well, you had to rely on them pulling you back
Speaker 1: up though.
Speaker 2: That's the see and then that's that right there is
Speaker 2: the most terrifying part of this entire operation. Did you
Speaker 2: see how long Josh was dangling? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would have.
Speaker 2: I would have been cussing everybody out, like I can.
Speaker 1: You imagine, because my guess is there are moments where
Speaker 1: you know they're pulling you up and then they kind
Speaker 1: of slip or they need to like reget you know,
Speaker 1: their strength or mojo to pull some more. So you're
Speaker 1: kind of like going up and then you dip down
Speaker 1: a little and then you go up and more like
Speaker 1: it's out.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that is out.
Speaker 2: There's no way, and they were struggling, and ultimately I
Speaker 2: think that's what cost Era for yeah, trying to pull
Speaker 2: up Josh. Oh, geez, Louise. But I just want to
Speaker 2: go ahead and clap my hands for Era three and
Speaker 2: the way that they did that, like they were some
Speaker 2: little kids on the jungle gym.
Speaker 1: You know how Era three does shout out to Era three?
Speaker 1: My as so good they did our poor Era one,
Speaker 1: poor Era one girl.
Speaker 2: I don't even know what to say anymore, because there
Speaker 2: is a possibility because we don't know how this thing
Speaker 2: is going to play out, but there's a possibility that
Speaker 2: ever one can get wiped out.
Speaker 1: I don't know how Era one survives this with Derek's
Speaker 1: leg not at full strength, my and just having two people.
Speaker 1: And while I understand well, I feel like while Rachel
Speaker 1: was trying to save herself, she was making a really
Speaker 1: great point, like I get that Era two and three
Speaker 1: are close, but why are you keeping this super team
Speaker 1: so close in this game to have to fight them
Speaker 1: towards the end? That actually doesn't really make sense. And
Speaker 1: I feel like they could have tried to scape goat it.
Speaker 1: And this is where good politics comes in. They could
Speaker 1: have tried to play the we don't want to be
Speaker 1: mean card and been like, look, Era ones already, you
Speaker 1: know die. Basically, we just want to give them a
Speaker 1: break this one time. Like I feel like they could
Speaker 1: have hit ERA two with that or you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, and like gotten away with it a little bit.
Speaker 1: It doesn't seem smart to me that they're trying to
Speaker 1: stay so close to Air two, because even if you
Speaker 1: were to give Era want a break this week, you
Speaker 1: can always come back next week and go back after them,
Speaker 1: because they're probably not gonna win again, you know again,
Speaker 1: because they're at such a disadvantage. So what are your
Speaker 1: thoughts about a day No, I totally agree.
Speaker 2: I Naya was talking to I believe it was I
Speaker 2: don't remember if it was Tina or Rachel, and she
Speaker 2: was like, the smartest thing is to naturally wipe you
Speaker 2: guys out, and.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's like you guys are bleeding out already,
Speaker 1: so the smartest thing. But it's like, that's not the
Speaker 1: smart That's the smartest thing if it's a zombie apocalypse
Speaker 1: and you guys are on a canoe trying to start
Speaker 1: a new civilization. Sure, but it is. Or if you're
Speaker 1: on the Oregon Trail shout out to my old folks
Speaker 1: who know what that means. If you're playing that Oregon
Speaker 1: Trail game. But if you're not doing that, that's actually
Speaker 1: not smart because think about who do you think is
Speaker 1: gonna be easier to take out closer to the end, ye,
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be the weaker team automatically, So start
Speaker 1: weakening the team that's neck and neck and giving you
Speaker 1: the most struggle. Like cool, cool, your people on that
Speaker 1: team that are gonna save you, but not at the
Speaker 1: expense of themselves. And you have basically a full team
Speaker 1: competing against you. It just didn't seem smart. You know what.
Speaker 2: One can also say this, right, let's just say Derek
Speaker 2: Hills right, and that knee or the leg or whatever
Speaker 2: it is. It gets back to one hundred percent where
Speaker 2: it's supposed to be. You have just formed this megatron
Speaker 2: team of two. Because now you have Powerhouse Derek and
Speaker 2: Powerhouse Rachel. That's trouble, right, and they only have to
Speaker 2: focus on the two of them to work together.
Speaker 3: No extra people.
Speaker 2: That's terrifying.
Speaker 1: Air two and Ear three are gonna have to go
Speaker 1: against each other at some point. Anyway. I think it
Speaker 1: was a dumb move for what they did, and I
Speaker 1: think Naya kind of allowed Jordan. I could be wrong,
Speaker 1: but to like lead in that space and it's just
Speaker 1: really dumb politicking in my opinion. But that was just
Speaker 1: my opinion. It's just it's just as a you know.
Speaker 2: Okay, well then let's go and jump right on into
Speaker 2: it thee since we're here, let's hear who your era
Speaker 2: rankings are. Let's get into it.
Speaker 1: Okay. I'm going to have to give a participation trophy
Speaker 1: to Air four. Air four I just yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I expected more from them in this challenge. They were
Speaker 1: struggle bussing. They just they didn't do anything for me.
Speaker 1: So they're going to get a participation trophy. I think
Speaker 1: the partition patient trophy should be made of like water
Speaker 1: or something. That's what For bronze, I am going to
Speaker 1: have to give it to Air two. I'm gonna give
Speaker 1: it to Air two because you know, they thought less
Speaker 1: this week sort of, which is a little great. But
Speaker 1: this whole, like Ryan Banana's thing that's brewing, is interesting,
Speaker 1: and yeah, it's gonna be messy, and I don't think
Speaker 1: it's gonna be good. My silver is going to go
Speaker 1: to Era three because they did that. They won, They
Speaker 1: did a really great job, but they're only getting silver
Speaker 1: instead of gold because I don't think they made the
Speaker 1: smartest move and who they threw in I really just
Speaker 1: don't think that was the way to go. And then
Speaker 1: Era one's gonna get my gold, because man are they
Speaker 1: some fighters like to be have your backup against the
Speaker 1: wall week after week after week. Not only is it
Speaker 1: hard from a physical point standpoint, plus they are older,
Speaker 1: and I know we joke about it, but let's just
Speaker 1: be honest. I know my knees don't do what they
Speaker 1: did ten years ago, so like there's that, but also
Speaker 1: it can be emotionally draining and demoralizing when you feel
Speaker 1: like your back is up against a wall the whole time.
Speaker 1: Like look at how we see people freak out in
Speaker 1: one episode. Look at how we saw Jinny freak out
Speaker 1: in one episode when she felt like they were coming
Speaker 1: after again. And it's not to discredit that, but like
Speaker 1: people freak out and they're holding the line very well.
Speaker 1: Plus we saw Darrell, you know, just all of it
Speaker 1: was beautiful. So they're gonna get my gold for this week.
Speaker 1: What about your air rankings?
Speaker 2: We are not in alignment this week, So for participation,
Speaker 2: I gave it to Era one because I mean, they
Speaker 2: were they they I mean, I'm proud. I'm very proud
Speaker 2: of Aviv and Darrell. I'm extremely proud of them. Like
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, not a Viv she's on ERA two. Extremely proud,
Speaker 2: but I am proud of her. But I'm extremely proud
Speaker 2: of Darrell. I appreciate that he did not tap out
Speaker 2: and he did it. He did it for his kids
Speaker 2: and he made it happen. Like I'm really really proud
Speaker 2: of him. But that is the extent of it. Bronze
Speaker 2: I'm gonna give I'm gonta give it to Era four. Shocker, right,
Speaker 2: you would think I would have my Era higher. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna give it to Era four just because I think
Speaker 2: I forgot who said it in the episode, but they
Speaker 2: were like, this is supposed to be like the weightlifting.
Speaker 2: They're always training, they're strong, they're this, they're that, what
Speaker 2: is going on? And I feel like in the one
Speaker 2: area where they had all of these muscles, that's where
Speaker 2: they lacked. And so because they did that puzzle very quickly,
Speaker 2: but it was just that pulling it up in any event,
Speaker 2: I gave them bronze. For silver, I gave it to
Speaker 2: Era two because I was so proud of a even
Speaker 2: because I felt like they they knocked that thing out
Speaker 2: pretty fast. In my opinion, I thought they knocked it
Speaker 2: out really fast. And then for goals, I'm gonna give
Speaker 2: it to Era three because again I felt like they
Speaker 2: were little kids playing at the park like it. They
Speaker 2: made that thing look like children on a jungle gym.
Speaker 2: They made it look so easy, so smooth, and they
Speaker 2: got the job done and I was just it was
Speaker 2: really cool watching them do it. So those were my
Speaker 2: Era rankings. How about your star and your time out?
Speaker 1: Okay, so I have some star nominations. Let me pull
Speaker 1: up my notes.
Speaker 2: I love how you can have nominations, but I can't
Speaker 2: have pieces.
Speaker 1: You can't know you can have nominations because the nominations
Speaker 1: are fair. You just wanted to hand out rations to everyone.
Speaker 1: You get a crumb, You get a crumb, You get
Speaker 1: a crumb. This is not that, all right. So my
Speaker 1: nominations for a gold Star. One of them is a
Speaker 1: Beeve because of the way that she, you know, at
Speaker 1: five feet she came in and she was on top.
Speaker 1: So proud of her. Another nomination goes to Derek for
Speaker 1: solving the puzzle so fast. I love it. And Bananas
Speaker 1: were talking about how even killed Derek's and we haven't
Speaker 1: gotten to see it as much this season. I mean,
Speaker 1: we got to see it with Devn's birthday party in
Speaker 1: the Stripper show that was happening in this episode, which
Speaker 1: I loved. But Derek is so fun, so I'm excited.
Speaker 1: I hope we get to see more of him. But
Speaker 1: I love that he saw that puzzle so fast, so
Speaker 1: he's nominated. Durrell was nominated for a gold Star in
Speaker 1: conquering his fear of heights and just watching that moment.
Speaker 1: And Michelle was nominated for a gold Star because the
Speaker 1: way she's been able to regulate her emotions this season
Speaker 1: has been beautiful to watch. Like we hear her processing,
Speaker 1: she's still even when she was stressed, She's like, I'm
Speaker 1: stressed right now, guys, when they were struggling to pull
Speaker 1: Josh up, Like I just I just appreciate. We can
Speaker 1: literally see her growth throughout the show and also hearing
Speaker 1: about how much the show means to her family. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, it's just such a beautiful moment. It was
Speaker 1: really beautiful. Those sure for that reason, I'm going to
Speaker 1: pull a Davon and I'm sitting my gold star in
Speaker 1: half and I'm giving half of it to Michelle and
Speaker 1: half of it to Darrell because of history people. Both
Speaker 1: of those were really beautiful. Who gets your gold Star?
Speaker 2: Okay, So I have nominations as well. So my nominations
Speaker 2: are going to go to for my gold star, Durrell
Speaker 2: and also Kylin. And then let me just go back
Speaker 2: and my explanation for my rankings for Era two when
Speaker 2: I slipped up and said Aviv I meant for her
Speaker 2: and Derek because they Yeah, Derek did really good in
Speaker 2: that puzzle too, so I just wanted to go back.
Speaker 2: But anyway, my stars are My nominations are for Darrell
Speaker 2: and Kylon. Darrell conquering that fear getting a job done
Speaker 2: and did it without hesitating, like my boy just went
Speaker 2: like he did that. And then Kyland for being a
Speaker 2: two time Drell beat her. That's not something a bad
Speaker 2: an eye at fair. That is not something that Darrell
Speaker 2: is like that dude in this challenge in the challenge world, right,
Speaker 2: and so that's not just something to just bad an
Speaker 2: eye at.
Speaker 3: And so.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna give my start to both of them, ladies.
Speaker 1: You know in history was not made because Davon does
Speaker 1: that every week.
Speaker 2: Give it to both of them. Now, I'm gonna give
Speaker 2: my time out also to Durrel.
Speaker 1: See and I was, now we're aligned. Now you're aliged
Speaker 1: because that's who mine is going to. Yes, let's hear it.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna also give my time out to Darrel because
Speaker 2: and some people might argue with me, but it's okay.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying the look that I saw in his face,
Speaker 2: I think Darrell gave up.
Speaker 3: Here's why.
Speaker 2: Here here's why. So there's this moment where he goes
Speaker 2: in and he's like, I know what the math is.
Speaker 1: You know, I understand.
Speaker 2: We get caught up in a moment. He knows the math,
Speaker 2: he's staying it in his head. And then he goes down.
Speaker 2: He starts cleaning a fan one. Why are you cleaning
Speaker 2: the sand? Why what are you doing that for? Right?
Speaker 2: I took that as stalling a little bit, because you
Speaker 2: could have just dug it, like what are we doing?
Speaker 2: And then there was this moment where the camera zooms
Speaker 2: in on him looking at Kylon like and it was
Speaker 2: one of those looks like can you hurry up and
Speaker 2: solve it so we can be done. That's how I
Speaker 2: interpret it. That's how I took it. I didn't take
Speaker 2: it as he was looking like, oh I got to
Speaker 2: hurry up because he's about to beat me. It was
Speaker 2: a look of like are you done? Like hurry up?
Speaker 1: So close to like I don't I agree king Home
Speaker 1: on the time out. We are aligned on that, but
Speaker 1: I don't agree with you on the give up thing.
Speaker 1: My perspective, what I take is Darrell is funny, he
Speaker 1: is knowledgeable, he's talented, he is stubborn. As a mofo
Speaker 1: sometimes and also sometimes as we get older, we get
Speaker 1: set in our ways, and to me, what I was
Speaker 1: watching was so classic Dad, Like I feel like I
Speaker 1: could see I feel like I can just feel Darrell's
Speaker 1: energy being like, Okay, I'm gonna do this right. And
Speaker 1: I do think he got in his head hooker, I
Speaker 1: know what I feel like. I agree. I know I'm
Speaker 1: not saying it's smart. Was why he's getting the time
Speaker 1: out of the week, But it's like I could just
Speaker 1: feel that stubbornness of like, let me do it right,
Speaker 1: like you know how your parent, like how parents would
Speaker 1: tell their kids could take your time, make sure you
Speaker 1: check your like, I just feel like I felt that
Speaker 1: energy of him doing that where it was like droll
Speaker 1: if you just don't so.
Speaker 2: Like when Cadence is learning doing homework, yes, when Kadence
Speaker 2: is learning a cheer routine, yes, yes, when she playing
Speaker 2: basketball run take it to the hope. I don't have
Speaker 2: time for you to stand there and analyze and shoot
Speaker 2: the ball now, so no, but I get what you're saying.
Speaker 2: I also, can I add a category just with today, Yes,
Speaker 2: just because my emotions was all over the place watching
Speaker 2: this episode. I want to add a category of hugs,
Speaker 2: and I want to send hugs to Rachel and Derek. Yes,
Speaker 2: just because I feel like they are about to have
Speaker 2: a very hard, uphill battle about to girls, but no,
Speaker 2: like they're really like it's about to go down.
Speaker 3: Yeah about down. You like this.
Speaker 1: Category of hugs? Yeah, we should do that.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I tweet us and let us know if you
Speaker 1: want us to do a category of hugs or Instagram.
Speaker 3: I like it. I agree.
Speaker 1: I think that I'm still hopeful, but I feel like
Speaker 1: this next challenge, whatever it is, has to be something
Speaker 1: that a two person team can win. I mean, although
Speaker 1: technically this was something a four person team could win,
Speaker 1: and our girl Tea, you know, kind of just drop
Speaker 1: the ball a little bit. It happens. It happens. But
Speaker 1: hopefully next week is something just to balance it out
Speaker 1: a little bit. Otherwise I don't see how Era one
Speaker 1: makes it beyond this. But they're not going out without
Speaker 1: a fight, and they're not going out without coming on
Speaker 1: this podcast. We have an amazing guest coming up for you.
Speaker 1: She's all the buzz on the internet. You see your
Speaker 1: pop on and pop off, As she likes to say
Speaker 1: on social media. She is that girl. We have Tina
Speaker 1: in the house coming up right after this.
Speaker 2: Hey, friends, I am super excited about this episode because
Speaker 2: we have none other than Auntie Tina in the building.
Speaker 2: Let's give it up one time for Auntie Tana.
Speaker 4: Yes, Auntie Tina's look needs a drink? Are you serving
Speaker 4: anything in this place?
Speaker 1: Yes? Girl, we got it. What you want?
Speaker 3: I need our cock.
Speaker 4: No, ill will take some bubbles because Tina, you paused
Speaker 4: that word at a really unfortunate time.
Speaker 1: Unfortunate. Hey girl, Hey, okay, First of all, how does
Speaker 1: it feel there's so much buzz about u Tina right
Speaker 1: now online, not only for moments, but about how you
Speaker 1: are a hottie putati on the season. You are a girl,
Speaker 1: you do not age, you are beautiful, all the things
Speaker 1: that we know. But how does it feel to be
Speaker 1: back just recognized in your for your great greatness? Well?
Speaker 3: Uh, that sounds incredible.
Speaker 4: I guess it feels great to be able to do
Speaker 4: this twenty years later. And as much as I toss
Speaker 4: it out and uh and say I hate it, you
Speaker 4: know there's that fundamental love.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 3: You get bit by that bug. You both you girls
Speaker 3: both know you get bit by that bug.
Speaker 4: And something just turns on in you and and you
Speaker 4: just feel alive, and the challenge has brought a new
Speaker 4: breath of air to me, and I'm just grateful for that.
Speaker 4: I mean, that's how That's what I'm going off of.
Speaker 4: I feel like I'm almost like unborrowed time at this point.
Speaker 1: How so, what do you mean, because this is.
Speaker 4: Just incredible, This is absolutely incredible. Yeah, I never thought
Speaker 4: that I would be doing the Okay one, doing any challenges,
Speaker 4: But I first started off on All Stars. I didn't
Speaker 4: expect to do any After All Stars two, yeah I
Speaker 4: was done. And then after every single one I go
Speaker 4: into these, I don't expect another one.
Speaker 3: I just go balls to the wall, seriously.
Speaker 1: And that's why you keep getting called back.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I think they just like to punish me. I think
Speaker 4: it's funny. It's seriously a sickness at this point.
Speaker 2: Well, let me say this, because there is a conversation, right,
Speaker 2: and not many of us are in this conversation. I'm
Speaker 2: in the conversation, Devin is in the conversation, Marie is
Speaker 2: in the conversation, and there are a couple of others,
Speaker 2: but they're not many of us. And you are in
Speaker 2: this conversation as well the comedic relief of the show.
Speaker 3: Okay, I was.
Speaker 2: Like, what it is so necessary?
Speaker 1: Oh, I know, it is so necessary.
Speaker 2: And I must say, throughout watching this season thus far,
Speaker 2: you have been really bringing it in the entertainment part
Speaker 2: of the episodes, Like I find myself really rooting for
Speaker 2: you every single episode like this was Tina's episode, this
Speaker 2: episode was Tina's episode two, Like, you've really been bringing
Speaker 2: the breath of fresh airs, and I really appreciate you
Speaker 2: for that because it's it's needed. It's so needed.
Speaker 3: So it's needed.
Speaker 4: I think that a lot of negativity happens in the house,
Speaker 4: and I think that that because it gives them attention.
Speaker 4: So everybody's trying to out do each other with this,
Speaker 4: like uh being the villain.
Speaker 1: People are intentionally like trying to be the goal in
Speaker 1: the season.
Speaker 4: Yes, well, do you want me to close my eyes
Speaker 4: and turn around? I can pin the tail on the
Speaker 4: donkey on anybody?
Speaker 1: Okay, give me three, give me just three n eight
Speaker 1: Like off the top of.
Speaker 3: The puts it Jordan puts it too much. Devin puts
Speaker 3: it too much, but he just puts it too much.
Speaker 1: Those boys, Okay, you think they're trying to be villains specifically, No, that's.
Speaker 3: Them, huh.
Speaker 2: As long as you didn't name any women.
Speaker 1: I noticed that. I cut that, I cut that.
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna name any girls.
Speaker 1: I like them the season of the Girls. That's interesting
Speaker 1: because I feel like watching it so far, they don't
Speaker 1: come off as villain's quite yet. Anything's possible, you feel
Speaker 1: things doing.
Speaker 4: To be honestly with you, you get me on my period,
Speaker 4: and I could definitely become a villain very easily.
Speaker 3: I am a multifaceted person.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you get me on a day where somebody stepped
Speaker 4: on my toe or I have like you know, I mean, just.
Speaker 3: Anything, and I can come off like you know me,
Speaker 3: I wouldn't say mean.
Speaker 2: I can see you just like standing up for yourself.
Speaker 2: Because we've even seen it in this episode, and I
Speaker 2: believe Rachel called it Tina time. Yes, yeh, she called
Speaker 2: it Tina time. We got a little Tina time in
Speaker 2: this episode, girl, Yeah, you got a little time.
Speaker 1: When Rachel was like, oh, she's on one. She's just
Speaker 1: going Rachel just the way, Rachel, just way she knows me.
Speaker 3: She's like she's gonna, yep, let her go.
Speaker 1: And speaking of her knowing you. You guys recently did
Speaker 1: a vacation together, Kara Aviv, Rachel, you tell us about that.
Speaker 1: How long were you guys together? What you guys do?
Speaker 4: Okay, So Rachel wanted to throw a party like a
Speaker 4: Midway you know we had. I mean, everyone had such
Speaker 4: a great time and it was such a great cast.
Speaker 4: I was like, I do want to see some of
Speaker 4: these people again. So let's just extend the invitation to
Speaker 4: anybody and anybody who wants to join to just do
Speaker 4: aw watching party together. Man, just a private and a
Speaker 4: minute watching party.
Speaker 1: But then we saw on a boat, oh well, and
Speaker 1: a club.
Speaker 3: You know, we like, we like to.
Speaker 4: We like to spoil ourselves a little bit at this
Speaker 4: point in time in our lives. Okay, So that was
Speaker 4: a little off schedule thing that we decided to do,
Speaker 4: to just rent rent a boat and take the families out.
Speaker 3: Then you know Whomember wants to join?
Speaker 1: So is this a new alliance we should be keeping
Speaker 1: our eye out for in the future.
Speaker 3: Okay? So this I love it.
Speaker 4: Every time I end on a boat, it seems like
Speaker 4: I form a new alliance because superbly on the All
Speaker 4: Stars four it was on the boat that I was
Speaker 4: talking with Carra, and that was an alliance that it
Speaker 4: was alleged. Uh, it was because she looked like Jack Sparrow, Okay,
Speaker 4: and I was entertained by it.
Speaker 3: Okay, I know this time.
Speaker 4: This time, I was entertained because I was on the
Speaker 4: Titanic and she was Jack. And I told her, I
Speaker 4: see those muscles. Don't let me go, or I will
Speaker 4: pull you down with me. You will, we will die together.
Speaker 4: So that's I mean, this is how I entertain myself.
Speaker 1: That wasn't a no for an alliance. By the way,
Speaker 1: the definitely was a lot of words and was not
Speaker 1: a no. Tino, what's your initial.
Speaker 3: Condense it down? You guys got to condense it down.
Speaker 3: It's not simple. Do I like the girl?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 3: Will I ast her? Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Well, alliance is eventually you everybody has to go against
Speaker 1: each other. But it means that coming in you kind
Speaker 1: of start on the same friend. Okay. So that's definitely
Speaker 1: like that.
Speaker 2: We have friends.
Speaker 1: So call this the Titanic alliance now, like is that?
Speaker 3: I mean different strokes are different folks.
Speaker 2: Ali Teina said they are the Titanic friends Titanic but
Speaker 2: I'm not saying that a word.
Speaker 3: We are about the boat buddies. I don't know we're buddies?
Speaker 3: Is cute? You We could keep kicking around some names here.
Speaker 1: I like boat buddies. Okay, what was your initial reaction
Speaker 1: to watching this episode?
Speaker 3: Oh god, this is a good luck guys. As much
Speaker 3: as I hate it for like, you know, the result,
Speaker 3: it was good.
Speaker 4: It's getting good because I mean, I like the games
Speaker 4: this one.
Speaker 3: I like the eliminations.
Speaker 4: Man, I love the lottery of it all. Like you
Speaker 4: never know what's coming around the corner. You don't know
Speaker 4: what's going to be thrown at you. I enjoy the
Speaker 4: those kind of surprises and to see how I fare.
Speaker 3: I don't.
Speaker 4: I don't look and compare myself to other people. I
Speaker 4: just try to do the best I can do.
Speaker 1: This is a really great season for that.
Speaker 4: Well, you see a lot of other competitors how their
Speaker 4: motivation is just to beat a certain person or and
Speaker 4: I think that you can get your focuses. That's that's
Speaker 4: that shouldn't be your focus if you truly want a longevity.
Speaker 1: I feel like you're talking in code.
Speaker 4: I always talk in code, and you have to try
Speaker 4: to decipher very much.
Speaker 2: So how does the main show in your opinion, compared
Speaker 2: to All Stars.
Speaker 1: Oh that's a good question.
Speaker 4: Day, Okay, I will say all the challenge forty is
Speaker 4: freaking pro level, man, that's pro level stuff. It was hard,
Speaker 4: it was difficult, but it was rewarding in ways.
Speaker 2: I think you played well on the main show though.
Speaker 2: You did really well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, girl, Yeah I did.
Speaker 3: I dude, I lasted longer than I said.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I did.
Speaker 1: Yes, Tim the tool Man, Taylor Y.
Speaker 3: I was proud of myself.
Speaker 4: I was. I'm proud of myself on this one. I
Speaker 4: did way better than I thought I would.
Speaker 2: I want you to tell us about that elimination with
Speaker 2: those nails, and I know that's not this episode, but
Speaker 2: since you're here, we have to know, like, what what
Speaker 2: was the strategy? Did you go in the SAMs about
Speaker 2: to slice all this off the wall or what was it?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 4: Because I knew that, Okay, So I need to know
Speaker 4: how far these nails are seated into the wall, right,
Speaker 4: So the very first one I go in there, classic
Speaker 4: way pulling out a nail.
Speaker 3: You pull out the first one.
Speaker 4: I saw how how seated it was, and I was like,
Speaker 4: that's pretty far in there. I'm gonna have to use
Speaker 4: the claw, my hammer let's see if I can ram
Speaker 4: these down. And I did it and it kind of worked,
Speaker 4: and I was like, oh, if I turned the hammer
Speaker 4: to the side and slam them out of the wall,
Speaker 4: it'll be this, It'll be the same thing. I kept
Speaker 4: the hammer close to the wall because the part nails
Speaker 4: will bend at the weakest point hanging out of the wall.
Speaker 3: Right, the nail that's.
Speaker 4: Inside of the wall is stabilized, So you need to
Speaker 4: keep that hammer or whatever closest to that point intersection
Speaker 4: of the plywood and the nail.
Speaker 2: And that's where everybody else fell.
Speaker 1: Too far on the d Yeah.
Speaker 3: Watch them and you have to have enough force.
Speaker 4: And when I went down, I went automatically the exact
Speaker 4: opposite direction because if they some of them bent and
Speaker 4: that means I needed to knock them out. So I
Speaker 4: went to the opposite direction that I went in. So
Speaker 4: I did this like up down up.
Speaker 1: Sense that's good.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just simple.
Speaker 2: As everybody tried to copy and failed, miserable.
Speaker 4: And they can't do the Teina time, so don't try.
Speaker 2: That was good. That was good. Okay, back to this episode.
Speaker 2: So going into this episode, Baby, your era is dwindling.
Speaker 3: Girl.
Speaker 2: I mean the numbers are nowhere to be found.
Speaker 1: What number are the numbers?
Speaker 2: What was that like going against the larger groups? How
Speaker 2: did that feel?
Speaker 3: It was fun? Yeah? I liked it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I U as someone who comes in and you know,
Speaker 4: I just yeah, I shoot at the hip with these games.
Speaker 4: I like to have fun going up against the best
Speaker 4: representatives of every era.
Speaker 3: Shoot.
Speaker 4: That was incredible. That was an incredible experience. It was
Speaker 4: incredible to be able to have a crash course on
Speaker 4: each one of these eras and how they operate.
Speaker 1: But were you at any point was there a moment
Speaker 1: of just like sadness or frustration when your team kept
Speaker 1: getting crippled like that, Oh, yeah, crippled.
Speaker 3: World, We're crippled. They Nancy Carigan us.
Speaker 2: No, I couldnot.
Speaker 3: Taking us out.
Speaker 4: They're beating us down, I mean every elimination and then
Speaker 4: you've got to do the challenges.
Speaker 3: These other eras are like, oh they're weak. But you
Speaker 3: know what, they all been on vacation.
Speaker 4: Okay, we've been doing the work and they've been they've
Speaker 4: been having fun.
Speaker 1: Speaking of fun, it was nice to see fun in
Speaker 1: this episode with Devin's birthday party. It's always fun seeing
Speaker 1: the friendships we're on the street was there was a roast. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there was ooh, tell us about it.
Speaker 3: Okay, Carra got up and Kara she had a little.
Speaker 4: Help for Brian and Derek, and she roasted almost everybody
Speaker 4: in the room and it was freaking brilliant.
Speaker 3: She was hilarious.
Speaker 4: Everybody got to see the car that I see. Okay,
Speaker 4: this funny, goofy person who's actually lighthearted. And I thought
Speaker 4: it was great. I was like, car I think that
Speaker 4: was the greatest thing you could have done. Because everyone
Speaker 4: thinks she's this miserable person all the time.
Speaker 1: She's actually, yeah, she's definitely not.
Speaker 3: She's miserable around other miserable people.
Speaker 2: So you don't think everyone gets to see the car
Speaker 2: that you see?
Speaker 3: Yeah, well yeah, because I'm not miserable.
Speaker 4: I mean, I candy, but and I know the game
Speaker 4: can bring out the most ugliest.
Speaker 3: Sign right of anybody.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So I.
Speaker 4: Offer grace with every single person because I'm you know,
Speaker 4: you go back and I don't have the cutest moments,
Speaker 4: you know, girl.
Speaker 1: Yeah, girl, all of us.
Speaker 4: So I always I just always offer that grace to
Speaker 4: anybody that's done this.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's a it's a pressure, it's a pressure pot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, Kara is a lot of fun. I actually,
Speaker 1: I guess you're right. We don't get to see kind
Speaker 1: of her like let loose playfulness, but it's definitely there,
Speaker 1: and I feel like in past seasons we've gotten to
Speaker 1: see a little bit of it. Did anybody else Rose
Speaker 1: Dev at the party or was it just Kara?
Speaker 3: I think it was just Kara. Kara had it. She
Speaker 3: was locked and loaded, she was ready for it. And
Speaker 3: it was brilliant. It was good. It was hilarious. Even
Speaker 3: Devin was laughed like she had some good singers in there.
Speaker 3: M hm and Dev. Oh god, we were all crying, laughing.
Speaker 4: And I could see the change in everybody's eyes, like, oh,
Speaker 4: who is this? This is a Carra we haven't seen before.
Speaker 2: Oh I like that?
Speaker 3: Yeah like that. I really encouraged her to do. I
Speaker 3: thought it was a great thing for her to do.
Speaker 2: I you know, well, he wasn't very encouraging. What was
Speaker 2: this heights challenge? Okay? Because I was over here holding
Speaker 2: on to my stomach. Do you understand me, Tina, tell
Speaker 2: us how you are.
Speaker 4: I thought that I should watch this episode on the
Speaker 4: toilet because just watch again, I felt like I was
Speaker 4: gonna pee myself. It was the scariest, most bad ass adrenaline.
Speaker 2: Pump bit challenge.
Speaker 4: It was bad Darrell and I when we got out right,
Speaker 4: Durell couldn't stop talking about it.
Speaker 3: I couldn't stop talking about it. This challenge was everything.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: It was so beautiful seeing Darrell's reactioning you having known
Speaker 1: Drell so long, like we see him wipe away what
Speaker 1: looked like tears when he got back up on that
Speaker 1: platform and he spoke about what he told his kids,
Speaker 1: you know, which is just so incredibly beautiful. What was
Speaker 1: that like for you being there in the present, Like,
Speaker 1: what was that sort of energy? Did he say anything afterwards?
Speaker 4: Okay, well I do know before he went off, he
Speaker 4: kind of did this tippy tappy thing and took a second,
Speaker 4: and I was about to shove him off the side of.
Speaker 3: God. I told him. I was like, I'm gonna shove
Speaker 3: you off if you take your too much time.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 4: But he came up and I was proud of them, man,
Speaker 4: I was proud of them. I'm glad that the only
Speaker 4: where place he leaked was his eyes and not his
Speaker 4: I was, yeah, I was a struggle bus man. It
Speaker 4: was a struggle bus for everybody, and we make.
Speaker 3: It look we make it look good, you know.
Speaker 1: But in looking good, Tina, you didn't look as good
Speaker 1: when you picked two flags? Now, what happened?
Speaker 3: What it? Why are you trying to point out my mistake?
Speaker 1: We're not, We're just we want we want to understand
Speaker 1: the brilliance behind.
Speaker 3: I'm scared.
Speaker 4: I was scared shitless, and so when I jumped off
Speaker 4: that thing, I over compensated and I close my eyes, girl,
Speaker 4: goose my eyes.
Speaker 3: I just threw my arms out there and drop off.
Speaker 3: The hell was in front of me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that makes sense. That makes sense.
Speaker 4: And then I looked down as the street was coming
Speaker 4: towards me, and I yelled, fuck is coming towards me? Yeah,
Speaker 4: the street was coming. It was a nightmare. It was
Speaker 4: exactly what you imagine in your nightmare.
Speaker 1: Guys, yow, what part was the nightmare? Was it the
Speaker 1: catching of grabbing the two flags or just the whole
Speaker 1: running across you know.
Speaker 4: I think consciously making the decision to jump off the
Speaker 4: side of a high rise building.
Speaker 3: Yeah, uh, and then.
Speaker 4: Watching you make that decision and your stomach go into
Speaker 4: your throat, Yeah, as you see the sidewalk or cement
Speaker 4: in cars your your body is propelling towards cement. To
Speaker 4: be able to actually see it and to make that
Speaker 4: decision is uh wow. I don't know that many people
Speaker 4: who would be brave enough to do that. And we
Speaker 4: made it look easy, but it you know, Durrell created
Speaker 4: that good baseline like, this is not normal people's stuff, Guys,
Speaker 4: this is not we're like almost on trained professionals at
Speaker 4: this point. Guys, don't try this at home.
Speaker 2: But you did it, Tina, and we're so proud of you.
Speaker 2: Not that puzzle. On the other hand, m let's go
Speaker 2: back to that puzzle, because what happened it was the
Speaker 2: piece not over there because you said that a piece.
Speaker 3: Was no a piece was missing.
Speaker 4: It was okay, So we had to place our pieces
Speaker 4: on the side. The piece was small and it was
Speaker 4: dark and it was all the way in the corner
Speaker 4: back side.
Speaker 3: So when I went and.
Speaker 4: Grabbed all the pieces, the board was high and I'm shorter,
Speaker 4: so I couldn't see or grab as easy my reach.
Speaker 4: So when I put I grabbed quickly all the pieces,
Speaker 4: threw it on board, started assembling them, and I'm like,
Speaker 4: this is why is this not lining up? I have
Speaker 4: this And I was like gosh, there's one missing. That's
Speaker 4: why it was just that was error on my part.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well the night begins, do you immediately start politicking
Speaker 2: or like what happens?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 4: Oh no, that's not my vibe, man, Oh no, my
Speaker 4: vibe is like, roll the dice, baby, let's play this game.
Speaker 4: I love that because I think a lot of these people, like, dude,
Speaker 4: you see these people, they implode, They put themselves in
Speaker 4: a pretzel. Work in the game so hard, and it's like, oh,
Speaker 4: it's trying to be a strategist. No, you're trying to
Speaker 4: be like a manipulator. In my opinion, because I always
Speaker 4: feel like the person who like does the most like
Speaker 4: that does the least in the game. Sometimes, like they
Speaker 4: don't pull them up their their weight, they just talk
Speaker 4: a lot.
Speaker 2: Go ahead, Devin, ask her who's she talking about? What
Speaker 2: you talk about?
Speaker 3: What Devon's want of them? He's not the only one who.
Speaker 4: Telling people to step up, and he hasn't even stepped
Speaker 4: up of himself.
Speaker 3: You know, like these kind of things, it's like, you, guys,
Speaker 3: open your eyes.
Speaker 4: I think, honestly, the steamrolling that other people allow these
Speaker 4: cast members to.
Speaker 3: Do to them is just sad. It's sad.
Speaker 1: Why do you think they do? Why do you think
Speaker 1: they allow that?
Speaker 3: I don't know, I don't know. Scared, intimidated that's it.
Speaker 1: Do you think it's though? Because they can kind of
Speaker 1: back it up, you know what I mean?
Speaker 4: Like, yes, yeah, yeah, they have influence, they have power,
Speaker 4: and they're convincing.
Speaker 1: Something that I thought was interesting was watching when Jordan
Speaker 1: came to tell you that, uh, well, Jordan and Nya,
Speaker 1: that they were coming to you know that you were
Speaker 1: this election to go in.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm so.
Speaker 1: I'm curious to get your take on this because in
Speaker 1: what we've seen of Jordan over the years, he actually
Speaker 1: seemed like he was handling it in as respectful of
Speaker 1: a way as we generally see Jordan, which I think
Speaker 1: speaks to how highly he regards you and the dynamic
Speaker 1: you've created. But yeah, how did you feel about that?
Speaker 3: He did? And this is why I do love Jordan.
Speaker 4: He he was respectful with me.
Speaker 3: He wasn't disrespectful. The only thing I could say was disrespectful.
Speaker 4: Is Naya coming in smiling at me and hugging me
Speaker 4: and then telling me I'm going to get into elimination.
Speaker 4: I thought that that was in poor taste and Jordan's
Speaker 4: smiling at me, telling me I'm going into elimination.
Speaker 3: Nope, don't be nice to me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I.
Speaker 4: Mean she was like, probably bear hugging me because she
Speaker 4: knows that I would have been start swinging. Maybe that's
Speaker 4: why she wanted to cuddle me in the bed.
Speaker 3: But I didn't like that. That's the only that's the
Speaker 3: only thing. But I mean, as first game played that,
Speaker 3: they played it right.
Speaker 2: I appreciated me.
Speaker 3: I don't know how what else to say about that.
Speaker 1: I appreciate it.
Speaker 2: When you were sitting down talking with Michelle. You guys
Speaker 2: had a nice little conversation, by the way, but when
Speaker 2: you were sitting down talking to Michelle and you were like, girl,
Speaker 2: I don't want to take you out.
Speaker 1: I thought agreaming right.
Speaker 2: I thought that was the funniest thing that I've seen.
Speaker 2: That just credits your straight up like, yeah, it breaks
Speaker 2: my heart.
Speaker 3: Man, I had to take out Emily. I didn't like
Speaker 3: that one either. But people making me do their jobs
Speaker 3: like this is yo, I'm the bad lady. At this point,
Speaker 3: I'm taking everybody's fucking trash up.
Speaker 2: Sorry, excuse my languageos, I know.
Speaker 3: I'm done with it all right.
Speaker 2: We have to take a quick break, but we'll be
Speaker 2: right back after this.
Speaker 1: Okay, let's get back into this show.
Speaker 2: You talked a little bit in this episode about your
Speaker 2: history and your family's history with Vietnam. You want to
Speaker 2: share a little bit more about that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, this is this season was a very
Speaker 4: special season for me because we've never been in Vietnam.
Speaker 3: This is the first time. I mean when they.
Speaker 4: Showed that, I teared up because I think that that
Speaker 4: is why this season also is just the special and
Speaker 4: why I wanted to do it is because it was
Speaker 4: I mean.
Speaker 3: I heard it was an Asia. I've never been into
Speaker 3: an Asian country.
Speaker 4: There was rumors, and then when I found out what
Speaker 4: it was Vietnam, I just I couldn't believe it, Like
Speaker 4: it was Okay, here's here's a backstory. Emily believes I'm
Speaker 4: a manifestor and it. Yeah, so she when we were
Speaker 4: in elimination and she was leaving, she's like, you're a
Speaker 4: manifestor when she hugged me, and it almost made me
Speaker 4: want to cry because everything seemed to like align for
Speaker 4: me on this one. I didn't win, which is what hurts,
Speaker 4: but I got I still won in the sense that
Speaker 4: I was able to go to Vietnam and I was
Speaker 4: able to play a badass game with a bunch of friends.
Speaker 3: Man, so I still feel like I won.
Speaker 2: I love that. I love that thought process.
Speaker 1: It was beautiful.
Speaker 3: I got to be positive about it.
Speaker 4: I try to be positive about these moments that I
Speaker 4: feel defeated in. Yeah, even though I lost the elimination,
Speaker 4: I'm still grateful for what I do have.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you left an incredible impact from you know,
Speaker 1: watching you fight, watching your team, you know, be at it,
Speaker 1: be disadvantaged relatively early, and still go as far as
Speaker 1: it was. You know, your your comedic chops to also
Speaker 1: you yelling. I loved the moment when there's sort of
Speaker 1: the reactions to you popping off and we just hear
Speaker 1: you yelling these weak ass mfs and so epically Tina
Speaker 1: so great, like I get.
Speaker 3: So, I'm like, you guys are playing a scared like.
Speaker 4: Y'all try to puff your chest up so much, but
Speaker 4: you're playing a scared game.
Speaker 3: And it's to me, I see it. But I love
Speaker 3: the like, oh, I'm so big in babtable and it's like, no,
Speaker 3: you're not.
Speaker 4: Every single I've noticed outside of Era one, they all
Speaker 4: play that scared game.
Speaker 3: I don't want to go into elimination, And I'm.
Speaker 1: Going say that's a good point because I wanted to
Speaker 1: know Tina your thoughts on that, because Day and I
Speaker 1: have differing views around the whole nominating yourself thing. Then
Speaker 1: obviously Era one got to a place where you guys
Speaker 1: didn't really have a choice after a while. But I'm
Speaker 1: curious your thoughts, particularly like when we watch the whole
Speaker 1: Devon and Corey thing. You know, some teams seem to
Speaker 1: be very much about the nominate, just keep it going,
Speaker 1: be proactive, whereas other teams are trying to kind of hide.
Speaker 1: Do you think that Devin should have not self nominated?
Speaker 4: Yeah, he should have.
Speaker 3: I think he's a coward.
Speaker 4: I think it's weak sauce to me if you cannot
Speaker 4: pull your weight in the sand in the elimination and
Speaker 4: the challenges, but all you could do is talk your
Speaker 4: way to a file.
Speaker 3: There's no respect, none, is there?
Speaker 1: None? Though? If you win the final, because I don't,
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I think you're a manipulator. And if you think you're
Speaker 4: gonna get far in life, you have your life is
Speaker 4: going to be very hard.
Speaker 1: Or are you a smart game player, because there are
Speaker 1: people who have taken the same stance that you're taking
Speaker 1: right now, which is fair and valid, And then there
Speaker 1: are some people who would say, hey, no, look it's
Speaker 1: play smarter, not harder, and you need both sides.
Speaker 3: Too, if it smarter not harder. So yeah, if I
Speaker 3: could get away with it, I would.
Speaker 1: There you go and there we go. Yep. Okay, So
Speaker 1: can I get angry, Yes, that's valid.
Speaker 3: Yep, I'm angry about it.
Speaker 1: I can't do whatever you want to do. This is
Speaker 1: the teenag shit I am.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I because I was happened to be the trash
Speaker 4: lady on this one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, not the trash lady, which is partially though not
Speaker 1: even just people coming after you. I mean, in this
Speaker 1: instance it was, but it was kept.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: But honestly, in every single challenge Rachel's set up before
Speaker 4: every challenge that I've ever done, I am the odd
Speaker 4: man out, and I think that that's what I that's
Speaker 4: why I get along the car and I see how
Speaker 4: she's isolated. And if I didn't have Rachel and Veronica
Speaker 4: back in the day, yeah, I would be just like that.
Speaker 4: I would have been just like bayh.
Speaker 1: Do you still feel like the odd man out now
Speaker 1: though you do?
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yes, that's crazy. I don't see it. Yeah
Speaker 3: you don't. What do you see going into elimination?
Speaker 1: But it's because because we don't have a choice, but
Speaker 1: don't have enough.
Speaker 2: Anyone is targeting team these.
Speaker 4: Lower eras, y'all try to pick us off one by
Speaker 4: one note while we in it.
Speaker 1: It's d'.
Speaker 3: Y'all. It's a shame what you're putting Era on through.
Speaker 1: Look. I came in room for Era one from the
Speaker 1: jump over my own cool.
Speaker 3: You're cool.
Speaker 1: I I I very much resonate with the old souls
Speaker 1: and have so much respect for you guys. And I'm
Speaker 1: still rooting for Era one although the mathing math and
Speaker 1: at this point so I don't really.
Speaker 3: Don't talk about math. It's too soon, can we not?
Speaker 2: Well, actually we do have to talk about it, and
Speaker 2: we not make dig like this.
Speaker 1: This is not there we do.
Speaker 2: We actually do have to talk about it.
Speaker 3: Getting me with the math, yea, Tina, what's up with.
Speaker 2: The math, because what's going on with you and Darrel
Speaker 2: in this math situation? Here?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: God?
Speaker 4: You know one, I need to be able to see
Speaker 4: the numbers. I need to be able to write it down.
Speaker 4: My doing the math in my head with a d
Speaker 4: D is very, very difficult. So that's why you see
Speaker 4: me writing it. I could do math. It's just the
Speaker 4: way my brain works.
Speaker 1: You have to see it.
Speaker 4: I have to see it if I'm doing math. Yeah,
Speaker 4: and Michelle was Michelle. I mean, Michelle was just faster
Speaker 4: math than me.
Speaker 1: I guess, man, what do you think about Drel? Though?
Speaker 1: Wiping the Darrell to me had such a dad moment.
Speaker 1: I can like, why are you sharpening your pencil? Okay,
Speaker 1: why are you putting an apple on the teacher's desk
Speaker 1: before you solve this problem?
Speaker 4: He needed to go and grab his readers before he
Speaker 4: could look into the sand.
Speaker 1: Basically, basically, I mean it gets to that point.
Speaker 3: Guys, you're not there yet. You just wait, keep doing
Speaker 3: this and you're gonna get there.
Speaker 1: It was so it was such a showing homework moment
Speaker 1: for especially for the next time I see Durell. I
Speaker 1: am one hundred percent roasting Durell for that because he
Speaker 1: was so far ahead, like impressively so and he can
Speaker 1: do that in his head.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he answer for sure, but he checked his work
Speaker 4: because that like you don't because yeah, I mean.
Speaker 3: That's what you do you double check your work and
Speaker 3: then you plug it in. But you know, he took
Speaker 3: a little too much time with you.
Speaker 1: I think he should have just risked it and and
Speaker 1: then if.
Speaker 4: You went and done it first what he thought it was,
Speaker 4: and then if it was wrong, go into the sand
Speaker 4: and go back.
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, I agree.
Speaker 1: He was doing a boomer move kind of.
Speaker 3: It was like a little he's.
Speaker 1: Not that easy, but he's not that all.
Speaker 3: He's got boom all over your boom Shota laca.
Speaker 1: Ah, Look Durell and I are we we go. I'll
Speaker 1: certainly say this to Durell, but yeah, I just was like,
Speaker 1: I was so shocked that he literally and especially when
Speaker 1: who was it Rachel who was commenting on the fact
Speaker 1: that it wasn't just because I can even understand one Whitey's,
Speaker 1: you know, like I can understand fine and right in
Speaker 1: the sand one.
Speaker 4: But I don't think, yeah, line, you guys have done this,
Speaker 4: like sometimes you have those brain farts and it's not
Speaker 4: a good look and you're like why, And when you
Speaker 4: look back, you're like, what the hell was I thinking?
Speaker 3: Because finds that twenty twenty, I'm.
Speaker 4: Sure Dorell's going to be beating himself for the next
Speaker 4: twenty years about that.
Speaker 1: Uh, I hope, because that's just.
Speaker 3: He's a competitor like that.
Speaker 4: But I keep reminding him. I am proud of you, buddy,
Speaker 4: for jumping off that building.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, beautiful moment.
Speaker 4: He conquered a huge fear is what I was happy
Speaker 4: to see.
Speaker 1: And I was there for and seeing the history of
Speaker 1: that moment.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, my friends, Yeah almost pis pants and poopas pants.
Speaker 3: It was wonderful. Yeah, And I'm proud.
Speaker 1: Of them moment the same.
Speaker 2: And we are proud to you, Tina. We are so
Speaker 2: proud of you. We hate to see you go. But

Speaker 4: everything is if you lose, then it's a conspiracy against you.
Speaker 1: That is so annoying. It's annoying, annoying, it is.
Speaker 4: It's absolutely rude to discredit someone's work. I agree, okay,
Speaker 4: And I think that it's I think that it's funny
Speaker 4: that everybody believes that there's no way that I could
Speaker 4: pull that off without having it in my favor. Yeah,
Speaker 4: you could poke holes in each one of these stories.
Speaker 4: And I'm sick of the crying wolf. And then the
Speaker 4: time that it comes to their elimination, they're gonna cry wolf.
Speaker 3: And I'm like, I think you're full shit because you
Speaker 3: cry wolves on mine. Yeah, and mine was legit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I don't stop.
Speaker 4: I mean, it's just I just think it's just it's immature.

Speaker 4: you can't take an l gracefully.

Speaker 3: Am I wrong?
Speaker 1: You are not wrong?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 4: And people, I'm so heated about this, but like I
Speaker 4: deserve your win. I just think that the crediting needs
Speaker 4: to stop. I think it's rude and I feel bad

Speaker 4: it discredits that whole elimination, not only the winner but
Speaker 4: the loser. Yeah, it's just And we put too much
