0:13 [Music] [Music] n [Music] [Music] welcome back to the nullified Tech Channel on YouTube where Kahuna and I've got the TNT takes for you Survivor 45 episode 3 that's right we are back baby Guna how you doing really good man like I'm excited it was a fun episode of Survivor this week a lot of new stuff that I was like kind of like interested in and going along with the ride going along on the ride with I really enjoyed it what about you yeah I enjoyed it there was a lot of commotion online you know with people saying that this is the best episode of the new era of Survivor 40 I guess the new surviv and yeah I think it was a great episode

1:33 I haven't fully digested it to sort of have a feeling about it strongly that it's the best episode because I feel like there was more game defining episodes in some of the previous Seasons that have happened but you know recency buyers is a thing though Kahuna and one thing that really I do think comes into play is the fact that the 90minut episodes it is working it definitely is working for Survivor yeah we're getting to see a lot more across the board obviously the last couple episodes there's been so much f focused on the disastrous yellow tribe getting a lot of the shine because when you're the team constantly going to tribal you're the team that's constantly going to get the attention of the of the edit but in this episode like we see we get we get reward challenges we get like beach time Blue Team Beach time with red team yeah like it's really great I love what they're being able to do comedy moments in there like a little bit of everything which really does have a feel to me like old school survivor even though I know it's a new school season it's a lot of extra twists and mechanics that are going to be thrown in there's more time to explain the mechanics of the twists as well so when it pays off at the end of the episode we actually understand what's going on where in these shorter episodes it feels like they're trying to explain most of the time what the mechanics are instead of giving us the character building moments giving us the things because it makes us feel as neutrals like

2:53 The people on the beach don't have personalities when they actually do and a lot actually happens on the beach I mean there are still things right now that are getting cut out of the show that we're not seeing but we're at least seeing more of it at this stage let's Sayo let's Sayo to people here in the live we've got Chris back saying oh I'm so ready to talk about this episode I have my thoughts hello to you as well Chris Den says hey guys I'm not driving at the computer great much better episode this week I enjoyed it as well denica Chris is saying this was a great episode good mix of tribe life challenges and strategy and Cindy Wigglesworth I don't know if you're related to the famous Wiggles W that played Survivor you probably get it all the time but says she's happy to make the live we're happy to have you here the Fury tiger wolf says hey everyone awesome season so far and Away the best new era Survivor season early days early days but yes we had one specific episode that was a complete flop when Hannah quit the game in my opinion very early on and then we've had two out of three episodes that have been good but it needs to carry on with that momentum kuna so I'm like cautious I don't want to jump the gun and say that this is going to be the best season yet but I think that there's a lot of potential as we mentioned with the 90-minute episodes yeah do you think that maybe they've gone too hard too early getting our expectations up high and the only

4:13 Way from here on out is down really I'm hoping that's not the case I don't think so because I feel like the like to be fair and to somewhat agree with Fury tiger wolf here there are some really good cast members still in the game that have yet to play the game like we haven't seen Austin D Drew and Julie do anything as of yet seu and jiah they're kind of sitting on the outside in that tribe they haven't had to vote yet and then in the blue tribe we know that there is this power struggle between the likes of the girls the three girls Kelly Katura and Kendra with Brandon working very close with Kelly and then obviously the boys being together we see a little bit of that here and I've got thoughts about what happened early on in the episode there as well but I feel like the season is setting up these great story lines for us and there will be a payoff at some stage like I'm just saying let's not jump the gun and say it's definitely the best season but it's probably one of the strongest we could probably agree to the strongest start to a season in the new era I would i' would be willing to agree to that well I missed 42 and 43 so I'm agreeing with you so far and from what I've gathered I don't think that would even really touch what is happening here this season so I'm down I'm on board with what you're saying yeah so we start off on this episode on the Lulu Beach saaya

5:34 Gives Emily her shot in the dark back what did you think of this move did you love this do you think that she did the right thing here and without being results focused because obviously we know how things play out at the end what was your thoughts on the fact that she was willing to give that back yeah great move good move I think it was because like we know that so far the shut in the dark has not worked ever like successfully it got played and landed on the right whatever last season but she wasn't even up for danger so it's never been played successfully it's not that much of a danger so when you hand it back you're solidifying the relationship Emily's reaching out you've got she sa's obviously got thoughts in her head about Caleb going forward maybe too early for that sort of thought but it's there and she knows that with all numbers she's got to do something so bringing Emily in when Emily's already trying to extend the Olive Ranch and reaching out to her and then welcoming okay we lost you there for a bit ker you're back now but I'm going to just reiterate what you said because I agree with you I think it was a great move to basically give this back to Emily Bol trust

6:54 The aim here is to buold allies for the long term so keeping the shot in the dark which has never really worked in any case for anyone in the new era I mean but it's still a mechanic that makes for interesting strategy at times I didn't feel like it was powerful enough for her to keep it she clearly wanted to work with Emily at this stage and she felt like this was going to be that thing that is going to cement her relationship with Emily when she wanted to make a move here against Caleb and a lot of people will say that she played too hard too fast this episode and we'll talk about that in its whole I can understand where the thinking came from for her but I think that she misjudged how Emily sort of had that bond with Caleb and the work that Caleb did earlier in the season there was a bit of a miscalculation there and the fact that she let Emily in very later on her own Advantage I think probably didn't help either tough spot to be in but overall like this move it's interesting seeing this here and then we go to the blue Beach right and this one here I've got some thoughts about this you know like in South Africa and I know Australia is probably very similar we love our fires we love making fires we're we call Barbecues Bri and it's like a tradition over there and only one person is allowed to handle the fire and do cook up the sausages and the meat and things like that this is a big tradition in South Africa right and we get taught from a very young age when you stoke

8:14 A fire you don't Inhale Smoke and we get this scene with Jake by the fire and you can hear him inhaling he's like as he's blowing straight into the smoke and I was thinking to myself has this guy never gone camping in his life of course you're going to black out doing that it felt like just a very idiotic thing to do for a very smart guy because he can't be dumb if he's a lawyer right so he didn't watch Mike scooping on a Survivor Outback like falling into the fire many years ago luckily Jake was a lot less injured he wasn't he's a lot less melty in the skin Department than Mike scin was so I'm really happy about that I would have had like when I saw the preview last week and then I saw him actually fall down he's literally lying on top of it and can't get up like he's trying he's trying to like get off it and just looks like he's drunk or whatever but that could have been really dangerous if that was a raging fire or whatever and Jake the Jake the attorney from Boston lives with his grandma he's not stoking fires out on Islands very often and he proved that it was not a smart move but it ended up working out in his favor Cindy says here I'm not related to Kelly but I did meet her two years ago before when went on Survivor she was out white water rafting toour guide wow that's awesome oh our

9:35 White water rafting toour guide that's really cool that you got to meet her Geet says trib coming next episode yes we'll definitely talk about that Courtney is still giggling over the blind H she was so confident also says say blue Beach five times quickly no I want to remain monetized on the channel Courtney don't do that to us okay but yeah really fun episode but this somewhat dumb move or buffoon move in my opinion and just not being aware of what to do around a fire ends up playing kind of in Jake's favor because he's been the early Target for the girls in the episodes here but Kendra seeing him in this weaken state has her maternal instincts kicking in and she suddenly feels like she needs to take care of Jake and she's bonding with him and she says it's funny because I watched the episode twice she says I'm not going to play an emotional game and you have like the goofy playing in the background when she says that so I feel like Indra is going to play an emotional game this season and she kind of lets her emotions take over in this moment at any case because suddenly she wants to become boys with Jake or Jake says that they can be boys yeah I mean Jake I'm hoping Jake is smart enough to see that the my three blue queens that I've chosen for my draft in Bellow are very close

10:55 And he can see that it's him and Bruce and him and Bruce is two out of six so I'm wondering if he's like seeing like doing some maths on his fingers and going me and Bruce is probably not the best position to be in we got another immunity challenge coming up we don't know what's going to happen reaching out to Kendra like why not extend your network even that little bit and for Kendra too she's got options with the three blue Queens which I like to call them and then now yeah why not reach out and have a fourth there because three is still split with the boys right so why not get your extensions out there and increase your network and even if it's not to necessarily bring them into your fold and work with them fully by having that relationship at least you take some of the danger away from yourself if it is going to come to three on three or you know if they're looking to throw votes somewhere even if you have the majority even if you have the advantage of you're going to get the votes angering people is not a good idea reaching out to people extending that Branch friendship all that sort of thing when there does come to a vote even though you might win the target's not coming your way right so it's always a good thing to make friends in this game I agree and I was kind of shocked that at this point

12:15 Kendra and Jake have not even had a conversation yet and this was the first moment that they were sort of talking I guess this was the first time they talked strategy and they would have just had like very casual superficial conversations up until this point Andre says it's easy to get wzy around the fire or woozy around the fire the smoke is blowing even if the smoke is blown the other way the problem is I watched this twice the smoke was blowing in his face while he was inhaling and we could hear it on the camera that's the problem I'm like not a good idea he doing a cleanse he's like he's trying to like bring it bring it in yeah Cody says anxiety in the jungle that's what my mama calls the show that's so true easy not to get emotional when you're easy not to be emotional when you are hungry I feel like I get emotional when I'm hungry like I go through all what's the what's the three stages of grief that Emily Works through I work through that anger grief very quickly when I get hungry so I can kind of relate with Emily on that I love my food cash says I was wondering if maybe blowing at the fire made him pass out I've seen people faint from blowing balloons yeah I think it was inhaling the smoke I really do think that's what got him and he just didn't know that shouldn't do that yes Danica please everybody if you're watching this at any stage we don't normally plug at this early on but consider subscribing

13:36 To the channel it does help with us growing and getting recognized in the YouTube algorithms and we are covering more shows than ever so please consider that we also have C saying Play Your Part Fury tiger says much safer to use the tribal council fire 100% so Saia did do something right well she didn't have a fired Camp to begin with but let's move to the red tribe here the red trip early on we get Austin and Drew my favorite de at the moment in the show working very hard to find this Idol so Austin can get his vote back in the game and they have this moment where Austin and Drew decides that one is going to go and keep watch and Austin walks up in the wrong direction with Drew getting caught with his pants down searching for the idol walking in the wrong direction and both of them being hella awkward Kahuna clearly not good liars I feel like these are the people you want to with because you're going to know when they're trying to Blindside you because they really struggled in that moment to have their story straight blaming it on seu poor seu being out there fishing trying to provide for the camp suddenly he's the idol Hunter seu is not great at like keeping attention off him right he wants all the attention all the time and this is potentially one of the downsides he's been out there busted looking for idols and playing that up a lot like last week he even

14:56 Joked haha I wasn't really looking I was is joking and this time he got used as a scapegoat for with Austin and Drew which I thought was kind of good like there wasn't really any way out of it looked super awkward you ran off like a weirdo like it wasn't great by Drew but if you're going to bring it back and try to explain something somehow throwing sefue under the bus yeah that man is innocent and still catching Strays yeah that's funny Chris look he doesn't have the he doesn't have the connections he's not in that four he's out there he's throwing himself out there he's definitely a great scapegoat to throw under the bus at all times I think because he doesn't really have the outs to sort of get away from that bus but I do like that they got busted but eventually they kind of went all right like okay you got me you got me like we kind of they didn't fully they didn't fully own and we'll talk about that because it's to come up as we go through the episode here but yeah they kind of got caught in my mind and it was interesting to see how hyper aware D is at in this moment and the fact that she's working closely with Julie that she says halis and Austin and Drew have been

16:16 Spending a lot of time together doing their own walks we're supposed to be a for so you know they're really on to it and I feel like that the boys are going to struggle now that they've caught them in a lie once to lie to them in the future because they're going to know what it looks like if they lie to them so it's going to be interesting to see how that sort of moves forward but I do think overall I've got some thoughts about what happens later on in the episode as well so I'll keep it for then when we come back to them let's move to the reward challenge the reward challenge we get to see a reward challenge which is great because we don't get to see that on every single episode sometimes we hear that they have them but it doesn't make the edit because the episodes are so short they've got to explain the four or five steps to the advantages a lot to us in the episode so sometimes they don't have time to show us something like a reward challenge but we get to see it here they have to race from the ocean race to the beach run underneath an obstacle and catch a ball which is a classic Survivor Challenge and then they have to land three rings on a Target I can kind of understand after this challenge why Saia started worrying a bit about Caleb because they were anticipating a swap that's what I heard in the ex interview for SAA coming very soon and Caleb Absol abolutely dominated this challenge he was so far ahead of everybody else which is great for my man Caleb who just happens to also be my number one

17:36 Draft pick if he does make it to a merge maybe he's going to be that challenge Beast we haven't had in a long time maybe he'll be the Mike Holloway or the you know win his way to the end and win the game or become like the new Joey amazing or the Aussie on the season who knows but at this stage it's putting Targets on his back because he was that far ahead he didn't miss a shot when it came to throwing any he had the very interesting underarm technique as well Kahuna would you gone for the underarm or would you have swung the ring if you were out there I think you kind of do what feels natural at first and then adjust and Caleb saw that it worked he didn't miss the first time so he just kept on going with it you know what I mean like if it ain't broke don't fix it and that's a really good approach like a lot of that a lot of times if it's these challenges that well first of all good on Survivor forood like it's kind of a change up like I guess not the same puzzles and all that sort of thing they're trying different things but still classic Survivor challenge with a little bit of a Twist I guess so yeah like you it's all experimentation you got to try first you don't know what's going to work you don't know all that sort of thing but I think obviously he showed that underarm is the best he it starts out with throwing the ball on the ramp which is a very do you think Tony would have handled this I feel like Tony

18:56 VOR would have gone for the Mad SW if he had to do it like I don't feel like he's got the control to do the underarm you know you know what all I kept thinking of like and I feel really bad about this but I was like oh my gosh I wish I saw Brandon do that rope thing from like I know he's gone there's no way I'm really he's already out of the game and I'm still taking shots and I'm feel really bad about that but I was like they're so lucky he wasn't there right like that's the only reason why they would have stoen there they would they would have stoen on the beach right now if the game's finished then they would have still tried to finish the challenge see get like all tangled up and like actually stuck in the ropes and they would have had to like try to get him out I feel bad about that but yeah there's a basketball challenge at the start like get the ball up and it's kind it's not a hoop but get it on the ramp and then the Hoops he's tossing the underarm as well last week Caleb mentioned that his team was like the Cavs after LeBron left this guy's got basketball even though he's Canadian he's got like this whole basketball thing going on and everyone knows that in basketball the free throw shot was it's statistically proven even though no one in the NBA likes to do the underarm shot simply because it's called The Granny shot it doesn't look cool basketball you look cool right but statistically it is a

20:16 Higher percentage shot to do the underarm toss you get it a little bit softer it bounces less you can get the angle a little bit better so maybe Caleb's got this figured out's he's doing granny shots and it worked 100% worked for him I do want to give a shout out to Emily who did end up proving herself in this CH challenge as well she went through from what we saw and one go underneath the Rope structure caught the ball and they moved on a few other people who stood out for me Kelly was really impressive in the early stages of this challenge as well so I think she could potentially be a little bit of a challenge beast when it comes to some of the athletic things later on and then obviously your normal people that you would imagine would do well like your Austin and your D they did really well as well Andre Lee coming in with the $5 thank you so much Andre Lee we really appreciate it goes straight back into the channel as we continue to grow it here thank you for being such a great supporter of the channel we really appreciate that and we take note well overall Lulu finally gets to win something here and they do get the big fruit platter Kahuna so they've got some nice fruit that they can go and enjoy get that sugar rush back at camp but more importantly they bring in the raid which I don't remember the last time we saw a raid and my memory isn't the greatest so Chad forgive me if it has been quite recent but it's really good to see them bring the raid

21:36 Back because it can always create some interesting moments and Lulu gets to the side to take one of their players over there and KB after just dominating the challenge immediately puts his hand up and says let me go I want to go do it which I guess is a good thing because you want to create those Bonds on the other side but I guess when it comes to Threat Level man agement he's really putting himself out there at this stage Kahuna did you like this move from him what did you think about how this went down I do think he was a good choice for it because he like we saw and this is as far as Threat Level management this is the opposite of what to do but we saw how carismatic how friendly how like the salesman in him really sort of came out and yeah it's like he was he's the best choice for it as far as what he can get out of it for the tribe but I mean the old classic conundrum of Survivor is as soon as you leave what are people going to do when you're gone and saaya took that opportunity after seeing what like what you just said he just dominated the challenge looking amazing Caleb is just Caleb is a bright ray of sunshine and that's really hard to hide you cannot hide bright shining lights you know what I mean so he's going to do well in his performances as

22:56 Physically he's going to be friendly he's going to be social like and it helped him this episode obviously by getting out to The Raid and seeing how he can interact with people some people saw through it a little bit so you know some were like ah he's coming off as a little bit too slick again D and Julie like again they've just got the best reads at this moment I feel like I'm loving my picking d by the way like he comes up like you have really beautiful eyes so I think I'm pretty sure throughout the course of this little segment multiple people I think it was three or four I heard I don't remember I didn't watch it twice but so many people called him a player a player as in pla y ER he's here to play the game but when he went up to D like you have really beautiful eyes like he's a player with an A on the end he's a player the yeah like he's a goodlooking dude and he's you know coming around being all sweet and stuff like that too so Caleb's got a lot going for him which is like you said Threat Level management is one key skill that maybe at the moment he's lacking because he's got everything else and he's going over like I also like that he picked Drew when he had that conversation with Drew and he's obviously so friendly

24:16 So charismatic Dian Julie saw through it but other people just told him everything that he wanted to know he wanted to know you know what I mean like but there's a lot that happened yeah there's a lot that happened here like firstly I want to say drew for me has been the surprise package of the season I said it last week I'm going to continue to say it I know that some people were you know like Jake said some people didn't like him in the beginning of the Season or said we don't need someone like Drew we could have had Drew is like the only sort of nerdy archetype on this season and I would have been happy because he's not your classical nerdy archetype like he kind of fits in with the cool kids and he's like I don't know he's like a hybrid you know because again he did a lot of things right in this moment and clearly they vibed at like a personal social connection level where Caleb felt like he wanted to help Drew you know which was interesting to me the fact that Drew l a little bit of information slip here as well hats off to Caleb clearly they were vibing at a level where they were like we can work together and I think that this thing is going to come back now that we know Caleb survives this round it's going to come back in the future where Caleb potentially will find a home with this Alliance like yeah they'll know he's dangerous they know socially he probably shouldn't get to the end because he can win this thing if he gets there but he's now got an in because he lets Drew have

25:36 This special new advantage that he gets in the game which allows them to get a vote back if they've lost it smart off Caleb to go to the one person that he knows went on this journey so potentially could have lost their vote Drew then says no I didn't lose my vote but I got this Advantage which means that I can leave at any time up until FS the merge or when there's 10 players left in the game and they're starting to share some information and there's Goodwill being sort of bought between them and then even more smart about Drew using an advantage that he didn't even gain to go and build more Goodwill with both D and with Julie because immediately he's like hey I got this thing Caleb wants to work with us he's given me this now it's ours to use obviously Austin is happy because this is going to be something that could save him in the game I just thought it was good gameplay overall because Drew was sort of using something given to him to buol back trust that they just lost earlier in the game and the edit was confusing in that sense where I was thinking maybe de and Julie was we're seeing the story because I'm always thinking why is the story showing us that they're not believing Drew and Austin and I thought it's because D and Julie will get the better of Drew and Austin at some point but them recovering in this episode shows awareness from them as well so it's still very 5050 in regards to where that Dynamic is going to go moving forward in the game but the raid brought so much great elements to it the different

26:57 Trinkets that they've thrown in the game for once it actually worked in a social and strategic way which made sense for me as a viewer watching it which I really enjoyed yeah like I also really like that in picking Drew like if you look at Caleb right he's obviously very athletic he's good-looking he's charismatic he seems like he's coming across as an allaround great guy and I think in Seasons past and maybe this is I don't I don't know as an Australian I don't want to offend anyone but maybe this is like I wonder if Caleb was American versus Canadian if his personality Cons considering all his traits may have been a little bit different he may have been the more jock egocentric like Chad type guy because he is so charismatic he's so likable he's so he can play sports he's athletic all that sort of thing he's in sales that would usually come in a very stereotypical kind of package sometimes right like because the ego can get to you when you're good at a lot of stuff but he reaches out to Emily he reaches out to Drew and I think they're two people that would be almost the opposite of what a stereotypical Caleb archetype would go towards we usually see the Bros go together or the strong

28:17 Alliance or the strong guys or whatever it is but he's like reaching out to the people on the fringes or with Drew at least looks like he may be an awkward kind of nerdy type and not really that Alpha type so he's getting them and I hope it's because he's a genuinely nice dude and you know in high school he wasn't a jock that shove people into lockers and he would reach out to other PE to the you know the nerdier types or the people that weren't necessarily A obvious fit and that's a great move it's smart it doesn't seem like an obvious connection but it's also people that might be a little bit more vulnerable in Emily and showing how that works as well so a lot of really smart moves across the board from Drew from d and from d and sorry from Drew and Austin for bringing them back in for Caleb the way he chose and the way he handled it all a lot of really high level type of stuff we're seeing here which is exciting a lot of great soft skills being used here by them I do want to bring up Cash's comment here saying Caleb gives me Cody from 43 Vibes I totally agree with that Geor Jette says was Flint off limits to Caleb I feel like maybe it was because otherwise it would have been the obvious move of this stage Chris also says Caleb starting off by telling D she has pretty eyes is such an OMG moment this episode had true comedy I thought it was

29:37 A little bit cringe to be honest it was it's kind of funny because you could just tell D was like what are we doing here are we like speed dating are we playing Survivor what's going on Ki skirt saying I had Caleb and Drew as my top pick so it was nice to see them talk about working together yeah I love that de obviously both in my team so hoping that there can be something there for the future of my draft The Fury tiger says Caleb is playing well in many ways but is another player that doesn't keep their threat level low yes I think awareness and threat perception just isn't there for Caleb at the moment and we're seeing certain things which is interesting to me and we'll talk about it in the edit later on as well that makes me wonder if Caleb truly can win this season still very early days K SK says yes that's the wor Fury tiger wolf Danica says why did Lulu not take the Flint or did they just get the Flint automatically when they won the reward challenge I don't remember that being mentioned no they did not get it they were still playing for Flint because I watched the episode twice when they went to the immunity challenge Jeff said Lulu you've yet to get your Flint so you still need to get it from winning an immunity first time seven days without Flint so that's rough because that made me think like how are they like surviving because and then I remember they said that the water there they do now give them bottled water in a container at the well so they don't have

30:57 To cook the water like they used to back in the day you know you know what interesting chenel was on the F and Apostle podcast right and I didn't listen to it to it all but I heard something that came out of was Chanel saying that in reviewing this name dropping just like Bruce guys he's name dropping like Bruce Chanel actually came out and said whether it's a modern Survivor thing or not but fire is completely overrated nowadays yeah and like it's not necessary at all because they have water they get given multiple sets of clothes with long sleeve short sleeve because Tyson was saying that apparently one of the hardest things was that they gave you shorts with a long sleeve or short sleeve with pants and you had to kind of choose what you want cold and what you want warm and that sort of thing but now they look after them that little bit more which makes fire a little bit less important than it used to be I guess like Palm FR with Bruce as well right like you don't need that yeah this is a waste of time Jeff wouldn't like this information to be getting out from Chanel because it's the toughest season ever that's what we're do in 26 days now you know it's a lot more tough Aruna says late but glad to have caught the live welcome here at the life ownness she also said if they had gotten the Flint for

32:17 The winning the reward challenge then subur wouldn't have had to burn the idol at tribal that's right Erin welcome to the live says could only win Flint by winning immunity Dan says that was what I was wondering Chris now how were they getting water yep fire not needed for those who like sushi yeah I'm not a big raw sushi person myself to be honest with you so I would be struggling I'd be eating a lot of coconut I do love coconut so I'd be on the coconut diet when I'm out there so probably I think a lot of people go into Survivor liking coconut and by the end of the coconut diet they're like yeah I want to move on from this but we do need to move it on here let's move into the Lulu conversation that happens while Caleb is at the other camp at Reba we have all of the Lulu sitting there enjoying their reward and Saia and sha really sub meins the fact that they're each other's number one in the game this is the first time that we've sort of seen that in between the three that those two are the closest and maybe that is also a reason that Caleb started looking at other potential Avenues because he noticed that Bond was really strong between the two of them they bring Emily in they tell Emily that they're going to potentially go after Caleb for the reasons that we mentioned Caleb is a person that is going to be a threat later on in the game up until this point SAA in my opinion is doing a lot of things right she is playing the game to win it she is worried

33:37 That Caleb is potentially someone that could win the game ahead of her because he's more social than she is when they get to the end game and she's also sort of mentioning the fact that at this point they've got the power in their hands to make the move but if they go to a swap if they go to emerge the power becomes less their to wield you know because there's more people out there that could potentially make a decision and Caleb can smoo them over and have these great relationships and they Maybe not maybe won't have another shot at taking Caleb out in the game so obviously in hindsight this is something where she's talking to Emily's got a pretty strong bond with Caleb but I kind of understand where she was coming from I understood the argument if I was out there I may have even been persuaded by that argument when Saia made it yeah like I just think that maybe it was a little bit too early sa is already talking about Kayla I can't sit next to him at the end which we know is a big calculation in the game of Survivor but it's day six episode three like you know what I mean like you don't necessarily maybe it's because Lulu is losing so many they feel like they're getting towards the end and it's getting tighter it's a tighter Circle there's not much room to move there or room to breathe either so maybe you start thinking differently and take that shot but I don't know like way too early to made this move against Caleb

34:58 I do wonder and maybe we also don't know what she saw in the relationship with Caleb and Emily she'd obviously done some work with Emily and was getting closer to Emily like I know that we saw at the start of the episode there was that little touch of like Emily calling out the votes in last episode she's like only like and to me didn't want to say well I didn't I have my votes stolen because I have it to beware Advantage so they kind of just played off like I don't know what do you mean Jeff didn't count them properly or something like it's the dumbest way but yeah like she's obviously trying she knows that Emily's trying really hard she probably feels confident in that reach out that Emily's doing and tries to bring her in she's she gave her shot in the dark she gave it back you know like there's things there that gave her that hint that she could bring Emily in and maybe she missed the interactions that we saw with Caleb and Emily because a lot of times we saw them talk walking it was very one-on-one it was out when they're doing walks and stuff so soia missed that or missed something but I don't know like it the logic in it yeah she did notice yeah so I checked the exit interview she did and she mentioned that she noticed that Emily and that's one of the reasons she started moving against

36:18 Caleb because she felt like Caleb was calling Emily to the side quite a lot in the game so she felt if he was tight with both her and sha that's probably something she needs to deal with sooner rather than later I get the argument a lot of people in the live agrees with you that it's too early in the game I will say in the smaller tribes when you're going down to three people maybe not but then again if they just kept the tight here they would have had the power yeaha would have yeah Shauna Saia would have had two players after this she would have burned the candle she probably already had it in her mind because she does let Emily in on this as well right she lets her in on the fact that she's got this advantage and I think that was probably the because Emily was considering it Emily is a very logical player she knows Caleb is a big threat she knows she sits next to calebin she's not winning it right so I think she was tempted but by Saia going and telling her I've got this extra Advantage you haven't known about for a while her putting to into two together to think okay well that's why you couldn't vote at the previous Tribal Council you haven't let me in on this earlier made Emily's decision easier for her because she's like with you and Shan I'm always going to get information when it's good for you but Caleb was actually letting me in on things as it happens so I'd rather play with someone right now that's going to keep me in the loop than someone that treats me as a second class citizen in this Lulu tribe so I understand I think that she overplayed it maybe a little bit

37:38 There let's have a look at what people are saying here in the live fairy tiger says way too early to make this move against Caleb eron says on know it all Robin Steven mentioned that direction to boil water changed after Kong that's good to know Andre says one move ahead too much Christina says yay made it to the live welcome to the live Christina cordney is saying yes Emily was definitely on the fence I do think she was considering it Jay welcome back to the live as well Danica says I can see Caleb waiting to keep Emily as an easy Shield or wanting to keep her as an easy Shield Andre say did you vote did you not vote yeah that was funny she just doesn't know how to how to keep certain information to herself whatever she thinks she needs to blurt out and Yeah handle Direct on you know but I will say this and I haven't had the opportunity to say this Emily's growing on me Kahuna like you know I came pretty hot in the first episode against EV I was so annoyed with how she came across but I'm a sucker for like an Underdog Story or someone like adjusting and saying okay I messed up I didn't do this right and now I'm going to amend my game and yeah I don't believe just because I disliked someone in episode one that I'm going to be like I'm against Emily the whole season now because she annoyed me in the first episode of too there's still certain things I think

38:58 About how Emily processes information and how she blurts it out that would annoy me if I was out there playing the game but as a TV character I have to admit she's great casting because she's a complex character and complex characters do make for the best casting at the end of the day because there's some growth that can happen there you know and the edit loves her she's constantly being shown either on camera or giving confessional so I do feel like she's going to play a big part this season yeah I'm a fan as well like you said I like I hope as well that I'm the type of person that when given constructive feedback and criticism not just in the corporate world but in life in general here's something that you can do here's how you're impacting us here's what your behaviors have meant for the people around you and people either take it on board or they ignore it completely and I like when I see people taking it on board because it means that she's smart enough to see that people are giving her information to be able to use for the benefit of herself in this game and so far she's doing that like to the best that she can there's still little slips like he said call answer be about the vote and blurting things out but there's an attempt that is made and that's more than what a lot of people can often do in this game sometimes you see the writing in the wall you know they're going to go next you know that they haven't got a lot of moves and they're still just plot along

40:18 Doing nothing at least she's trying and she's trying in a way that really is one of the hardest things to do to be able to curb or keep down a lot of your own Natural Instincts like that's a hard thing to do to change your personality whereas some people yeah so the fact that she's doing it is incredible and yeah I'm I agree I like her as well I don't think she's going to win I don't think she's my favorite but I am liking the growth that I'm seeing in her she's not my favorite either but she's definitely growing on me it seems that a lot of people in the live are sort of agreeing with us on that Jay is just going like Jay I give you the pinky grab the whole hand says that even Hannah is great I mean what no like hanah's probably a great person but as a Survivor player we don't need people that are going to go out there and quit on day one okay we don't need that we don't need to condone that okay Jay but probably outside of this she's probably a really great person to hang out with but not for Survivor okay let's go to the blue tribe we do have the blue tribe going out fishing the boys they have their bro moment going out there catching some first Jake is providing well we didn't actually see him come back with anything but he's diving down there while the women are all back at Camp they finally have a bit of an opportunity to talk and I found

41:39 It hilarious because catura man she really dislikes Bruce she's got a thing against him and I don't know to me it's kind of like feeling like this is curra's like whole personality and story line is like the cura versus Bruce sort of story line that we're getting like there is no strategic thought that goes into this more than he annoys me so we need to vote him out so anything that Kendra says about Jake being okay and that she's just like reconfirming yeah he's not that bad he's not that big of a threat for a lawyer but Bruce right he's playing a second time like Jeff said played like it's your second time and he's actually playing his second time he's so much he's got so much experience on us in the game you know we better get him out what I like how curu is like he's really annoying me but I think everyone loves him so I'm going to shut up and then as soon as Kendra mentions one thing he's like yes he is get him out and then really like just went for it h hog she's like oh that's a thread I'm gonna pull that I'm gonna pull it until it all comes out so I thought that was fun to watch yeah absolutely yeah like even Kelly's like okay yeah he's probably a threat he's a smart guy you know but she does end up checking in with Brandon telling us that probably Brandon and I don't know where this came from we have had like two scenes with

42:59 Brandon and Kelly talking to each other and suddenly Brandon is her number one and she's checking in with him in regards to what they should do with a move if they were to go to Tribal Council in the future so very interesting here just to see how things are shaping up in this tribe it was just a very quick checkin here I see a lot of people saying jiah should be out soon just while we've got jamah coming up because she hasn't had much screen time great moment that we didn't talk about with Caleb going over to the beach there and seu and deah doing the rift and production having the best time with that g because they were like fully putting like the music the backtrack in there U I thought it was a lot of fun this is the little moments that we get now because of the 90minut episodes I don't think Jah was as into it as seafu I don't think anyone's into anything as much as sefue is he's got he's got that Island energy I don't know where he's getting it from but he's definitely on the next level at this point we go back to Reba the red tribe this is where Austin and Drew finally gets Julie and D in on the plan to get the idol so they let them know we found this beware Advantage the previous night this is where it is they all go and work together so my dad always used to say many hands make light work so they all went out there they look for this they eventually find it via a rope

44:19 Which I thought was really creative in the way that they hit it love the fact that it was a hammer instead of an idol that they got with a clue on the hammer to go smash a rock future Survivor players if you go around the well now you need to just pick up rocks and start smashing it on the ground to see if one will break because they're now hiding idols and rocks out there Kahuna difficulty level this season when it comes to advantages and Idols have gone up a lot and personally I'm loving it because at one point I was saying they're just giving them out too easily and now it's like there are like two or three steps to finding the idol and then there's disclaimers now you don't only just get disclaimers on the things you buy when you go to IKEA you also get disclaimers out of Survivor I mean I loved it too I got like the fact that you have to do multiple stages does make it more difficult but it makes it like it gives it that Adventure Vibe considering they're on an island the Survivor thing like survivor's become a game in and of itself but when you think back to like the vibe that it gives the fonts that they use the bamboo the island it has this adventure type feel like almost like not I know it's not a exact correlation but National Treasure Hunt Goonies Like Pirates and Adventures and all that sort of thing on an island

45:39 And you like you have to find this to read the clue to find that like I really enjoyed it I was smiling when they're like they found a hammer and they have to look for a rock I do Wonder though what do you think Chris like with finding the rope that had the hammer that led to the Rock do you think they're there from the beginning or do the producers go and put because what if someone found that rope before yeah I do I do think I do think they're there from the beginning I do think that they go planted early on because it just feels like there's too much work that goes into this and there's probably still the possibility for people to find and that's a good point like what happens if you found the rope with the hammer without finding the beware Advantage because then you still have your vote and you potentially get an idol in the process of looking for it because you're like finding half of the clue on the way so it's a good it's a good point maybe one that Jeff will answer in the future because obviously there is like Steps there so they might be okay go do the first step when they've got the first step done we'll plant the second step when they're at a reward challenge or an immunity challenge I'm not sure my thinking is they probably plan it in advance and they probably have everything set up in a way where it's ready to go when they're out there because it is quite complex like I mean why would you go look for a rope and that rope wasn't easy to find in the specific spot that was at so I don't feel like someone would just go out there and

47:00 Randomly come across it same with the rock I don't know when they put the rock down yeah that's true no one's picking out random rocks and like breaking checking them unless it's SE probably with his it doesn't even hurt I love that the challenge as well and I don't know if this is part of the design of the game the actual game itself but it worked out that kind of needed lots of people to help or at least one or two because the digging was deeper you know that you had to like have people on Lookout and like it seemed like a much more involved process where one person finds it and then they go and tell their Partners hey or their Alliance hey I found it this one actually got their Alliance and this is on Drew and Austin as well that they brought Julian and D in Julian D found the hammer but gave it back to Austin to you know continue that building of the relationship so it was really sort of a win-win from production to put this in and have it yield so many positive results for the show I like it yeah it's just a slam dunk the more the more I think about it and the more I'm processing it's definitely up there as one of the best episodes because there was a lot of payoffs that sort of a lot of things that they put in the game that ended up paying off in this episode at first when D and

48:20 Julie gave the idol easily to Austin I wasn't sure if I liked it because my old school surv brain is like you try and keep that advantage to yourself and you know try and deceive the other team potentially so you've got the advantage you've got all the power and especially because Drew and Austin did lie to them earlier and I think they caught them in that lie but thinking about it long term this game I think alliances are going to be more important probably than those advantages moving forward in the game and this is probably the strongest fall that we've seen in the game so far they're going to have this Swap come up they're going to try and work together hopefully at this point to go forward in the game and this is kind of the alliance that I'm behind right now I'm really enjoying this Alliance so I hope they do really well but we know that the new era of Survivor is unpredictable and they're going to try and shake things up Erin says has the blue tribe found their Idol clue yet I don't think so I haven't seen anybody find it yet so they're definitely behind the eight ball Mike miky hope here in the live say can we say the yellow tribe is the worst New Era tribe they're so bad Jeff needed to break this format to being in a swap to bring in a swap well there was the tribe that Shan and rard was in who went down to two people before they got to the merge but I feel like maybe Jeff was worried that there was going to be no chance like they would have no one from this tribe even make the merge if they didn't do

49:40 This I don't know but overall I'm just happy we're getting a swap because I've missed the swap like a true swap that's what I want to see in this next one so I'm glad they're doing that Chris says I like for forcing them to work for the idol yes that brings great TV moments J says imagine if Austin gets swapped onto the Bellow blue tribe and gets the Bellow Idol to the good thing is that they keep changing how the Idols are hidden so by you knowing the sequence of events of what you need to do on your Beach it now doesn't matter when you go to the other Beach you're going to have to find the be advantage to get it because it's different saia's Clues were very different to Austin's and I do feel like both of them had some difficulty to it but I'm wondering if saia's one ended up being the most difficult because she didn't end up having fire at camp but didn't sort of think about that Nuna says now they have read the terms and conditions for any Idol yep you're going to have to read it for every single one denica says I'd use that Hammer as a tool I'd replant it at camp and let someone else find it so it can be used maybe even tried to carve away the clue interesting use the Hammer as a tool i' replanted at the oh yeah so you plant the hammer at the cam let someone else find it so it can be used maybe even tried to carve away a the clue right yeah you got you got a free Hammer you want to be able to use it and not just have it be a clue that you have to

51:00 Hide from everyone you know like can we use a hammer in Camp yeah Jay says that Jeff needs to be blamed by all production because they unevenly stack B Reba as being stronger tribes and Lulu they could easily have made all tribes more equal if they SWA Brandon with Drew yeah I don't know how they decided on that Jordan welcome to live says I think Austin found the idol sooner they put it in here to explain some beers to mice Mak sense because it definitely helped towards the end of the episode Christina says would you have would have been funny if Su Drew banging on the Rock he probably would have thought it's a game thought it's like you know let's play some drums bro my turn next man Chris say I can't believe it took you 45 minutes to change your mind and admit this was one of the best episodes Chris has seen the light listen I'm a slow processor Chris like it takes me time it's a good episode I just I feel like sometimes we just get we jump on the bandwagon too quickly let it like let it cook for a minute let's just think about it right let's work through it and Kun know help me see the light Jay it's only time I'll admit it Jay says I don't disagree cat but it seems like Julian JM would have been good at puzzles on reeba if Brandon wasn't there okay so let's move on to the immunity challenge the immunity challenge

52:20 We've got a race with cards they've got to release Keys grab big puzzle pieces and then naate their way through some obstacles and solve this massive Cube puzzle I don't have too many thoughts about this immunity chall pretty straightforward guess it just comes yeah it just comes down to the fact that again Lulu falls apart at the puzzle at the end Devastation you know as Lulu goes back here nothing to out of the ordinary and then the pre-trial Council sort of scramble starts we've got seia in my opinion very she's very good she's got a very good poker face when she's talking to Caleb In This Moment saying hey we're going to vote for Emily you can tell her to vote for me I'll tell it to vote for you let's make this thing happen and up until this point I felt like seia was in control the edit had me fooled because Caleb even when Emily pulls him aside and she says hey this vote is coming your way you need to vote my way he's like too calm and cool and collected like he's got the three C cool calm and collected you know and he was that like in reference to like a previous season I feel like someone has already said that but he just doesn't get nervous in this moment to the point where I feel like that conversation is not the one that made him see the light we missed the conversation again here ker which really

53:40 Annoys me because I want to see Caleb come to the conclusion that he's in trouble this felt more like it was driven by Emily than Caleb like Caleb feels like he was saved by Emily In This Moment which I feel like is not great for Caleb's chances of winning the game because do you want to show your winner being saved by someone else in this moment or did Caleb when did Caleb have the aha moment I didn't see it yeah so again it shows like in a game like Survivor when you have all the information and you have options when you're friendly with multiple different not necessarily alliances but when you're good with you've got different networks different branches different options available to you can at least make that choice I don't know what calculations went into to choose siding with you know getting rid of I guess because sa was coming after him and he knew but I don't know how he knew that how did he come to the decision that saaya telling me to vote for Emily was the was the fake and telling Emily to vote for kale was the real because logic would dictate that yeah Emily is going out you seem pretty solid so Caleb picked up on something that we did not see I didn't even really tweak to that like what was it that actually tipped him off and we didn't get that in Eda which is a shame we didn't even get to see him doing his own like permutations

55:00 And c and figure it out like whether it was in a confessional or what but no yeah you're right I'm not sure if he was the winner like if he was the winner how like we would have seen it like they would have been something or there's going to be maybe like the one thing that could potentially redeem him in the next episode is if he comes back from Tribal Council and he gives us his thought process and he's like immediately after like who this was a close one I didn't believe Emily into the tribal council but something that sha and SAA said put me off or the fact when she had that Idol in her possession I realized she was going to have too much power going into the next round and hear sha not too close so that's why change so if he comes back with that type of a confessional in the next episode I'll put him back in the potential winners bracket at this stage I'm concerned for him it looked like Emily saved him kiwi says yes it was Emily who saved him I was concerned he wasn't going to believe her Christina says I think Caleb did when he was staring at as Idol gr after the idol melted he seemed to come to the conclusion and he probably had that moment thinking shaan SAA pretty close like I'm the third person in this in this trial I need my own person and that's maybe where he was like I could still use Emily as that person and released this K house acted at Tribal Council very confident very confident throughout that Caleb

56:21 Doesn't think Emily can lie well I think he saw something we didn't see Jay says well if they can show Gable wanting to play his shot in the dark in the first Tri putting palr in on his sleeping tribe mate I don't think Caleb was shown that badly that's a fair point Jay that's a fair point I can't even like I love gab but I can't even defend that you know gab had a better second half than the first half of his game kiwi says glad he went with Emily but yes Kahuna we don't know how he changed his mind ARA says could it be that Emily is pulling the strings but the tribe mes aren't realizing it well she is now she's in the driver seat with Caleb Sean's in the back seat Andre saying if I was Kaleb at Tribal Council I would 100% vote for SAA Courtney says sa was doing a lot but Caleb didn't give us a confessional on the beach exactly that's my that's my fear like what was he thinking what was going on in that mind of his you know going into Tribal Council but let's talk about the tribal council one of the better tribal councils that we've ever had us International Survivor fans there's a very high bar for Survivor us to meet which they're getting closer to that when it comes to tribal councils but let's be honest Australian Survivor and even survivors of Africa have had some way better tribal councils in recent years when it comes to Idols being

57:41 Found in Tribal Council game Dynamics making its way in Tribal Council which makes the tribal council truly live this was the first time where I felt like Survivor us had that moment as well with s just being so blatant because tribal councils have always been the sacred thing that Jeff is in control of and people can't take control of it and so's just like you know Jeff you take a back seat I'm just going to pop this candle right in here in the fire and we're going to wait for it to burn you know we're gonna have a cookout you know and SOA was she was on the gr throughout this episode I love this by saaya by the way I will say that I was gutted to see SAA go because I feel like there's a really good player within her and I love the confidence that she played the game with even though it ended up blowing up in her face she was a good casting choice I loved it as well like throwing the candle into the into the fire and just because you didn't have fire at camp like what a like last week I was thinking that why don't you just bring it to tribal and throw it and see what happens but the fact that she did it and yeah took over traval Jeff's just sitting there going okay like what am I supposed to do just let her be supp and she brought tools every now and then right in the middle of tribal she'll just get up and Stoke it a bit and see how it's going she's got it on the edge she's moving it around I really thought it was

59:01 Like I feel like for that to happen the way it did for Caleb to go against SAA Emily to get saved or guess Caleb really to Emily saving Caleb so going out with an idol that's just been melted after she found out the instructions for how she can extend it longer and she literally just got it in that moment and was figuring out all the multiplication of it I feel like it could have been one of the more iconic tribals when you're talking about the standards that we have but I am worried now Chris that being episode three it might actually get lost a bit in the history of the season if not the history of Survivor where it might not get remembered as well as it should considering what we saw today I think yeah I mean listen fairy tiger is going right to the top the goat Tribal Council of all time for those that don't watch International Survivor for those that don't watch Australian Survivor you're missing out there's some really good moments when it comes to tribal councils but it was amazing like Chris say sa getting up occasionally to check on it the whole operation with Shawn helping her cool the idol down I thought mentioned a couple of things there that was key this Idol was going to be used for them as a group moving into like a swap phase or if they were to go to a merge you know so she was saying some of the right things there but it was just

1:00:21 Too big of a risk for Caleb to keep her in with sha and the idol Andre Le says CBS promo let me down with the tribal council they implied someone was finding an immunity idol at Tribal Council again we can only hope that Survivor us will do something like that in the future which we've seen an international Survivor and it's always been great when that has happened K says Sur was too confident and that always gets you in Survivor that's true Jeff was speechless you can tell that he hasn't been shocked by something in the show in a long time again I think it's because Jeff likes to be in control of tribal counsil he do of trial counil way that he it but I will credit to Jeff actually let it play out he wasn't like oh you can't do that you know he was like similar to how even with Adam when Adam was trying to play the podium he was like yeah and he's like oh go well if you think it's one come and come and try and grab it you know he's like daring him to do it in front of everyone so it's a great moment it's definitely a great moment especially when it comes to the US Survivor tribal councils AR says Jeff looks surprised questioning his own rules whether or not SAA his move was okay to do and says no backlash at Jeff's comment about a cookout the Survivor fans are finally behaving themselves yep Jay says I agree Chris there's a season of Prem merge boots SAA has to be

1:01:41 High on the list to come back I think she was phenomenal TV and i' also think that there's a great player in her like if there was like a pre merger versus post merger season like we had in South Africa I'd put up and maybe it's recency but I put her up to come back and play the game again I think that a little bit of humility would go a long way for her if she was to come back and she probably would play an even better game after this Danica saying surviv Au is the best M will agree with you on that I personally love South Africa a little bit more let's get survivors of Africa back on air everybody go sign the petition that I've started for that anun says would have been wild if Jeff had said it was time to vote before the wax fully melted Saar would have had a meltdown I was wondering if like Caleb and stuff was like come on Jeff let's go let's vote like they're watching it melt slowly like are we gonna do this vote anytime soon like maybe try to rush it so that she didn't have an idol available but yeah it was good the way it played out then says Caleb and Survivor looks like Caleb and Survivor look like challenge you as a three contestant to me Rivals yeah that makes sense I would like to see that Jay says in fact the Rost for Second Chance second New Era player is stacked Shan Ricard Omar Lindsay Cody Jesse Carla

1:03:01 Danny Carson Carolyn and Franny it's starting to look really good I'm just really sad that we're not going to see some of our like really fun favorite players that played in the later era of season the 30s I guess not coming back K says LOL the podium thing was so good also agrees that with a little humility surv would do well and to ensure Caleb went home how should SAA have acted at Tribal Council should have used the idol yeah I don't know yeah she should have used the idol really I think I think SAA just really misread Emily's connection yeah to and she thought Emily was just going to be happy to be saved and didn't want to have power in the game and that's what we said I feel like we were right Kaa in the first week when we said Emily is not to be trusted she's a bit of a like snake sounds so bad I mean don't mean it in a bad way I mean she's a snake in a good way where she's going to try and get to the top she's going to bite the hand that fed her if it mean she's going to win the game CU she's trying to win this game she'll make whatever move it takes to get through yeah Danica says sorry that should have said Cal why y got it yeah Aaron also agrees she should have played the idol okay let's look at the points while we've still got you on corel's got to be off very soon so we're going to try and see if we can get it do you still have time to go through the points with us yeah absolutely let's do it

1:04:22 Because I think I hope it was a good episode for me because I loved Austin in this one I thought D had a bit of a shine this season this episode so my team I'm excited for right let's get our teams up is this season is the point why Jake didn't make this episode after his three starting yeah we didn't even we didn't even con like you know yeah Jake couldn't make it this week after being bullied for the first two week by both me and you when it comes to the points but you know this good it is some good news for him because he didn't lose anybody in his team I lost my third overall pick in saaya that makes it three Lulu members back to back out of the game you now have the numbers advantage on me but let's have a look and see how things went on the points front so still at the bottom and the gap between number two and three is a real thing at this point is team Jake he's sitting at 75.5 points overall it's been a tough start of the season for him sitting in first place for the second week in the Rose myself at 141 points kuna you're in second place at 108 there is still a bit of a gap here you have not Clos too you're extending

1:05:42 Yep so there's a reason for that a lot of the big confessional people in my team at the moment obviously I lost the biggest one of them all in saaya who had 23 confessionals up until this point of the season she was also my leading no not my leading second highest point scorer at 28 as well take a guess who's the overall point lead MVP of the season the person who is just absolutely killing it right now and they're in my team as well who do you think that person is I'm gonna say drew it's drew it is Drew My overall last pick of the Season carrying the team at 42 points 42 points which is a big gap it's a 10-point gap between him and Austin is second overall for the season you've got also in your team another big hitter in d That's gave you 26 points at this stage so yeah things are on big toe pretty eyes she's a winner there you go so my hope at the moment definitely is on Drew and Caleb to Cary when it comes to points Jake has only got one person with significant points and that is Emily on 23 she is carrying the torch for him at this point in the game it's going to be interesting to see what happens next episode though we had that Jake say that I might have to switch

1:07:02 Sides or do something different so it might be a big episode for Jake and confessionals hopefully he doesn't go home because of that could help Jake a little bit on the points front but lots and lots of potential here I think the only dud I've got in my team right now is probably sefue based on what we've sort of seen up until this point but there is still potential for him there to become a player or at least have like a great edit or personality that can shine through at a later stage CU clearly he's got a big personality we're just not seeing it so with SAA gone now I've got a chance to close this week don't I catch up a little bit you do you do have a chance you've got a few people there that can still bring you good points Austin and D are definitely the two that are carrying you the most but I mean Kelly is seen as a bit of a strategic Mastermind Kendra slowly but surely getting a little bit more the big thing for you is it's either going to go really well with the three girls or really bad it could be it could be like a backto back yeah you know sort of elimination of the likes of a because I still feel like Cura to me is going early because of the fact that she's so tunnel visioned on Bruce that's why that's my read at this stage unless she wins and Bruce goes yeah you know unless she gets it the way she wants it so we'll see possible all right that's it here for this week

1:08:22 Everyone Emily is a non-poisonous snake ah you know I don't know do you get friendly poisonous I don't know if she's friendly I feel like she's definitely poisonous like you don't want to mess with her she's one of those snakes if you get in a territory she's going to mess you up it's kind of how I look at her one more question since people with a lot of confessionals seems to be getting voted out Prem maybe Drew gets voted out Prem it's possible don't make me sad Jay like he's killing it right now for me man like let me let me let me have one moment the good thing is though Chris if Drew gets voted out if Drew does get voted out you've still got basil in the game basil will continue on B basil will still go yeah BBG 95 says Emily is a self-interested player but she showed loyalty to Caleb since she he was the one who helped her when she was on the outs with everyone else that's right so I think Emily is on the up and up to be honest but that is it here for this week we do need to get Kahuna off otherwise his wife is going to be very upset with him but I hope you had fun as we spoke about the latest episode here of Survivor 45 please consider subscribing put the notification bell all those good things and for now grab your torches head back to Camp we'll catch you guys on the next live bye
