0:14 [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] welcome back to the nullify Tech Channel on YouTube where Kahuna and I've got the T takes for you on the Challenge USA season 2 that's right I'm your host Chris we're back to dissect I Believe episode 11 of this season man it's come and gone so quickly do you feel like that as well Kahuna like I've enjoyed this season it feels like it's just flown by yeah a lot I mean we did start out the season with the double episodes which kind of got it rolling real fast yeah and you know and they've kept up the pace with some Punchy episodes I don't think there's been too many waste ones in there and they've kept it going so I'm appreciative of it sometimes you know

1:34 You hear never us never us of course on the TNT takes but you do hear some podcasts complaining about the main MTV going for 20s something episodes and it can be a bit of a drain this one's it's getting there it's getting there fast too yeah I think that's the biggest difference between the USA franchise or all stars and the main show the main show the episodes are longer they always have so many returning players coming back with a bunch of like new players coming in that kind of feels like it's if you're a sports fan it feels like the prelims right so it's before you get to the playoffs before you get to the serious stuff there's like quite a lot of episodes but we just need to get rid of these Side characters before it gets spicy you know where with this one it seemed like it was spicy right from the start a lot of new people coming in I've loved it I don't think that it's lost any Steam for me personally and here's the good news even though we know that we're getting close to the end of the challenge here is A2 there is another season right around the corner season 39 so we're not going to have much of a break before we're going to be back to talk about the challenge but let's say hello to a few people here in the live Chris welcome back to the live it's great to have you here cashwalk is back in the live as well kiwi skirt is back in the life duu is here as well dores is here kuna and Chris okay good timing just got home feel like I blink now

2:54 It's almost over yeah exactly and Danica also in the life as well Danica welcome to the live so happy everybody could get here because we just had daylight savings right basically and that means that our time has moved and it's now an hour earlier for everybody that normally would watch us at 8:00 pm Eastern Standard Time over in the US it's now 7 p.m. so it's a little bit of a different time here but glad people could jump on we kept it the same time for us on this s because it kind of work with our schedule so just keep in mind that a lot of shows coming into the next couple of weeks I don't know when light savings happens over in the US or if you have it over there as well it's maybe going to be an hour earlier for a lot of our shows over the coming weeks and because we're doing so much right now kuna we got to we got to try and keep our schedule as tight as possible when it comes to it everything's GNA be meticulously planned yeah 100% u i see Chris is asking about Cory's big win that's coming up later on let's because I feel like kuna may be eating some Humble Pie pretty soon and I'm looking for to that later on as we get through this episode but what an episode Kahuna obviously we start off here the episode is called slippery business later on we're going to find out why that is so and in the beginning of this we've got Chris coming

4:14 Back to the house it's a little bit of a nothing couple of nothing confessionals before they get into the daily before things sort of speed up but Chris just talks about the fact that he's now the biggest target he needs to either get Tyler or fessie out of the game because those two were never going to go after each other F's kind of protecting Tyler's against him we have Cassidy talking a little bit about how you know her game she's got a back up against the wall she's also don't have anybody that is in the house that's going to cover for her Michelle's not got her back and she understand Michelle's got other priorities in the game and then we get Corey and Cory gets the emotional video from home Kahuna I was a little bit I was a little bit worried when I saw that I was like oh no like he's gonna go into an elimination when I saw that obviously something Good's coming but you always know that it's going to be one or the other and maybe I was a little bit glass half empty in this case when I saw the video yeah well we know it's not going to be a Winner's edit for cor hey well last week didn't we said kuna come yeah I'm kidding I'm just little leing into it yeah like chis with the emotional video what a week or two ago and we said oh could that be a Winner's headed yeah and now I'm starting to wonder if it's adding even more to that fact for Chris

5:34 Now Cory I like when Cory gets a little bit he's been he's had a quiet season for one of the vets for one of the people that has in the past been such a massive character he's been pretty quiet so it's good for him to get that little bit of shine there you go he's willing to bring money home to those three kids I mean look if Corey does win that's one time I would I'd be happy to be wrong to be honest with you I'd be happy to be wrong because I like it when so when vets kind of you know make that leap and can get over years of you know not hitting there and then when you finally see them break through we'll see I hope hopefully it might be that season for Cory yeah Diva welcome to the live saying hello Chris and Kahuna glad Cory got some screen time maybe a final edit not a Winner's edit it's going to be interesting but Cory yeah Cory's conversation on here his strategy right now which is a good strategy let's give him some credit the guy's been playing the game for a long time he's learned a few things over the years playing the game he wants to have strong women at the end so he's working with desie Michaela Chanel who is still seen as a strong woman at this stage even though I don't think like you know she hasn't really lived up to that hype I'm just going to say she hasn't won anything necessarily outright and he also

6:54 Puts Tori in that bracket you know so those are the four women that he wants to work with at the end which I think is a smart move for Cory because he knows that athletically he's gifted and he's always going to do well at that side of it but he's also got to have people there that can help him in places where maybe he's a little bit deficient when it comes to a final I do think it's funny that they've been showing that discussion in various forms for a couple of episodes now a few weeks where people like well at the end you got to have you know at the men are like we want to have the right women there the women are trying to we've seen Desi in that wanting to have ban like making deals with bananas not because they're friends in the game or whatever but because they know having the strong men at the end is advantageous to the women and vice versa for the men and I like how it's now at this point where we're maybe one episode away where Cory's like hey I got to start putting my squad together I got Cory come on bro like are you just waking up to it now so that's what I'm like he sometimes he does some amazing stuff and then other times I'm like he solidifies it for me so we'll see mixed bag mixed bag I want to hear I want to hear about that mixed bag later on because I thought he had a pretty solid episode Dan car says here Cory equals CT this season that's High Praise but I feel like because a lot

8:15 Of people that are playing the game with Corey this season they're not necessarily aware I think of his deficiencies when it comes to a final either they don't really know where he struggles because I feel like a lot of the Survivor players who've come over to play this game I don't know if they're the biggest challenge fans and if they've necessarily watched past seasons and past performances of Cory like I said you know Cory's gifted athletically but there are some shortcomings when it comes to the mental stuff if he gets to an end final position so I don't know if he's necessarily the person that the women should Bank on but they are banking on him for that experience as someone that has made finals before as being a vet what did CT called him when they came in this season where did he say they were Legends or something is was it Legends was the original term was it I can't remember they throw those terms around so easily these days icon was icons Cory he's the icon he is the moment he is the moment of the challenge USA to let's read a few more of the comenting before we move on Dolores says how about the Chris elimination win I do not think I saw that coming guys could Chris win this I certainly did not think so the beginning and for actually a few episodes but not sure now we'll talk about that Chris elimination definitely a little bit later on as we go through this who

9:35 What else do we have here we've got what he saying he should have called Nelson to see if he's okay man Nelson's getting some bad news I don't know if you've been up to date with that's really sad so for people who don't know and don't stay up to date I'm not even always that up to date on social media I try and be better I'm doing my best to be better for you guys but like I don't know how people do it man like some people are on social media a lot but I noticed that Andre Lee who's not in the live right now he tagged me in a video that Nelson was talking about the bone in his ankle being re-broken and he thought he was just training to hearts and maybe more surgery or something needs to happen which that's G gut-wrenching right as someone that has struggled with my own injuries and recurring injuries not being able to get into training like mentally that takes a toll on you when you're someone that loves doing that it's like you imagine you've got a h something that you love doing and they're telling you can't do that anymore and that's kind of what's being ripped away from Nelson so I feel for him man like I really hope that he can get himself in a good spot so he can come back and play again ker yeah it's tough man like I know that it's come out people have said or he's come out and said in past Seasons he didn't wasn't able to go at times because he didn't even have enough Private health insurance or

10:55 Health insurance to risk the injury and then to have something like this bad I don't like it probably speaks a lot of the US Health Care system if you want to get into politics and stuff but like obviously it's not set he needs a second opinion he needs something to go right for him because he's had a bit of a bad run of luck so shout out to Nelson hope it does go well for him yeah wow Speedy bird saying here he may have to have his foot amputated let's hope it doesn't get to that point there right that is really intense Dolores saying I think I personally hope Cory wins over Chris or dare I say even over bananas I'm leaning towards Cory because we saw the family edit well Chris got the family edit as well Dolores let's share the love let's share the love between the two of them let's see what else people are saying we've got K skid saying yeah I'd love to see Cory get the win there's still plenty of competition for him still left fingers crossed so you a lot of people here behind Cory obviously being a legend of the show an MTV main character sir K is really not liking the legend status all right let's get let's get into some positives here let's get let's give K an opportunity he says he's not a hater let's give him an opportunity my V I'll just double down on it

12:15 Let's get into the daily challenge they go into the daily challenge and it's called slippery business as soon as they got the oil out I was like all right let's go very athletic fit people with some oil on them like it was it was good on the eye I'm not going to lie you know a few of them look pretty good out there and I'm not just talking about the menona we get to see bananas with his full producer mind playing up to it doing the Flash Dance SL it looked like Michelle wasting on him a little bit there yeah they enjoyed it they enjoyed the show they got as many viewers did at home I'm sure as well so but I like a lot of them is standing there like obviously you have to oil up it's part of the challenge but some of them are just standing there like awkwardly not wanting to do it but again Banana's just like do anyway yeah we if we're going to do it we're doing it properly and he put some slow music on I'm sure it would have been come out great in that edit and he knows what he's doing he knows what he's doing Pete says anyone else noticed that the men got sexy time music and the woman got some sort of low budget carnival music I didn't notice that I was I was just checking out the physique on some of those women they were pretty impressive as well you know so I also think it was very specific that the men went first

13:36 When they're dumping oil onto themselves I like I think that was deliberate they didn't want to make the women be the first thing that you make a joke of it you make it fun it's not trying to be exploitive it's just part of the game with the men and then you can do the women with a little bit less you know guilty conscience yeah so they can always make sex symbols of the men that's okay but we can't make sex symbols of the women that's like a big no not a double standard at all Kahuna hey man it's power imbalance punching up versus punching down but it was it was a lot of fun I thought it was a fun challenge seeing them out there definitely felt for both Chris and Cassidy and their two Heats because we knew that they were going to get ganged up on and when they went for Chris like man like he put up a fight he was in there for a lot longer than what I thought he had like four people on him at one stage I think Tyler was standing to the side not really getting too involved trying to conserve energy and he's like well they're going for Chris first I think the other move would have been maybe for Tyler to try and help but he could also not show his cards because he was working with fessie and fessy his mat so it was like this weird dynamic and this gentleman's agreement of who would get involved and when would they get involved in the fight basically when they were out there but they even had the woman at this stage like Desi saying like this is not fun to see you know cassid is

14:56 Also like it's not it's not good it's good Chris getting ganged up on in such a way but the challenge isn't fair that's just one of those things the challenge is never fair it is about you know competition social strategy and this is not new when it comes to the challenge yeah I don't know if maybe that's what the producers intended because we've had similar challenges in the past in the old school time but they would do it with one-on-one where you randomly draw who your opponent is going to be and then kind of do it in The Knockout way and I was like oh allinone would be great I thought like the more the Maria this is going to be fun like just everyone wrestling everyone but then it kind of just turned into fessie dictating who goes trying to engineer the matches and sitting back and that kind of the team up the gang up wasn't as fun and not seeing some potential matchups because I would have loved to see Chris go oneon-one with a FES or bananas or something like that and Tori getting taken out early as well when she might have had a better shot on an individual one-on-one basis would have been fun to see her go up against Michaela go up against Desi and get a real sense of where we stand or rank going into the finals you know it was annoying seeing fessie and again I think it speaks to

16:16 Fess's game right he's playing a bloody good game this season he's won a lot of dailies socially he's in a good spot like they were just leaving him alone like he had all the opportunity in the world to like rest up go into that final fight rested but he still lost to Cory and I saw a lot of people sort of mock fessie online you know because it's the easy target let's be honest you know everybody hates fessie let's jump in on fessie look at how bad he is he lost to Corey Cory had all the energy in the all the energy in the world taken away from him while FY could rest for that final battle you know Cory is so much Superior to fessie that is the takes that were on Twitter which I think is so like I don't know Elementary when it comes to like arguments like yes Cory was better in this specific facet but f is clearly a like this is where I will agree with you Kun I know people goingon to hate us in the chat but f is clearly a better allrounder in the challenge like he can win more different and more different ways compared to a Corey right so he lost this one and give Corey his flowers he did well in the physical exchange but also he had experience in wrestling which is how to move your body and how to use the other person's momentum against them FY didn't do good maybe in a Fight Cory would win but in the challenge I think that it's yeah it's easy it's

17:36 Easy target to go after FY losing this one I was impressed by the fact that he could sit out as long as he did that was the impressive part that he was able to just conserve so much energy and dictate to the others yeah look I think I think look fessie probably is deserved of some Flack here because he was so this there are things that aren't going to be a strong suit we know eating is not going to be one of them I don't think puzzles is necessarily a strong point or maths it's not it's not like weak he's a pretty decent performer overall but I think this should have he Cory was definitely the underdog I think going into it anyone that looked at this says fessie was the you know the oddson probable winner here he's got size he's got reach he's got strength advantage on him Pro maybe probably he's got even though he doesn't do wrestling he said like I played football this is what I do every day of my life this is this thing and great edit by the way to have the overconfident vessie as always immediately contrasted with losing the game so that's always great shout outs to Cory I do think he was Underdog I didn't think he would have such a good shot but he did do an amazing job

18:57 On that for sure when I said there's like rocks and rocks and diamonds pluses and minuses even though it was Cory's obviously time to shine I saw some sta statistics that came out that said this Cory winning today broke the longest streak in the history of the challenge for never winning an individual challenge wow by the way which Cory was holding yeah so Nelson held it before him right yeah so well I think Nelson have been worse because it was no wins at all Cory's won like team challenges and things like I think he's never won an individual that was his first individual win Wow since joining the challenge so obviously there's not as many individual challenges to win constantly but so the numbers are a little bit skewed but he that's his first ever and he had the longest streak in the history of the challenge of never winning so you know don't come at me about Cory being amazing I think that yes a couple of good comments coming in here and listen I'm not like the number one FY Stan I just want to let everybody know that but I just feel like it's easy to say oh he's so terrible which he's clearly not so I just wanted to bring some balance to the to the conversation from a an athletic ability but Willie says f is known to be scary because of his height but I'm losing

20:17 But him losing against Cory just proved that he's that he's tall being tall is nothing I think that if fessie and Cory had to go on a hall brw fessie wins the reason that Cory won here is because of his experience in wrestling because of his experience in how to move his body FY did decently but Cory was able to use the momentum that Cory that the fessie had against them when he threw him out of the ring so really it came down to that for me this was I agree with you going into it I don't think Cory was going to win this like he was gassed going into that final one I mean he was breathing heavily FY had the ability to wait and F's physically decent I don't think many people does to FY what Cory did in that situation I think Cory just that was The Perfect Storm the perfect thing for him to go in there with his skill set and to win this specific challenge but a couple of comments here that are coming in that I don't want to miss so casw here says Cassidy was holding her own for longer than expected I was very happy for Michaela I agree I was going to come into this to say Cassidy kind of won me over in the previous episode Kahuna when she you know when she was bit when she was fighting for her life she's already been in the elimination twice she's come back twice yes she hasn't gone up against the most physically capable gifted people I would say

21:37 In the arena either but I'm loving Cassidy's dog the dog in her like the fight she doesn't give up she's not sitting yes she's maybe like upset that people are throwing her in but who isn't right I love the fact that she's really putting up a fight this season and someone kind of compared to I think last week in the someone compared to like maybe like a Maria typ of story that she could have on the challenge like she's in a very similar position that's High Praise because Kara Maria is Queen like everybody knows but you know these are potential here for her if she continues to come back in Future seasons and I feel like she fits on the challenge really well she's playful she's fun she's making out with Michelle Fitzgerald this episode I mean yeah what more could you want what more could you want she I feel like she's bringing a lot to the table and her putting up a fight that was impressive to see this episode as well you can see the producers just like praising the go praising all their gods the MTV gods or the challenge gods for when someone can come along put up fight like that throw up drama be back against the wall and then go out and make out with another girl during the episode as well they're like yes thank you we need more of that we need more of that all the all our cories are getting

22:58 Getting you know less and less messy as they get on they're getting older even fessie now is keeping in his pants so let's get Cassidy out there for sure yeah Oreo is saying I think Cassidy and welcome to the live as well is saying I think Cassidy is the third best female borderline second in this game well she's proven I I will say this a lot of people and I was going to bring this up as well Chanel Pete said Chanel finally showed some heart in this wrestling daily and she definitely did you'd expect her to do good at this right because she like she said she's physically probably one of the bigger girls there so she should be able to throw a white around and be competitive and Scrappy and she did do well like it took a lot for Michaela to beat her but Michaela still got the win still have that Chanel still does not have anything to her name right now so if you compare Cassidy to Chanel I lean towards Cassidy and there's this whole beef between the two of them at the moment which I'm loving by the way I love the whole Chanel versus Cassidy Vibes you know dare I say Rivals doo in the future potential you know it's fun I love I love seeing people not get along and especially if they're from the same show yeah Cass cassid is showing some real fight Chanel I don't know maybe she hasn't had like the two

24:18 Of the CH dailies where we really saw her struggle was specifically jumping on trampolines Cassidy's gone into two eliminations and come out specifically against Alysa so she's run out of Alysa to eliminate maybe it's not she's not going to be as good when it's not an Alysa that she's facing off against but Chanel obviously shown she's got the fight in her as well and she's never backed down from The Challenge as far as at least verbally she said like yeah I'm happy to go in there with Cass and show why she's a layup so she's trying to back it up but maybe it's opportunity based I'm not sure I want to see I want to see what she's got in the tank you know what I mean I think strategically she's doing a lot and I know that she's been on a podcast recently and people in the chat can let us know which one it was where she spoke about her strategic game and why she's making certain moves and how it's not making the edit which is not a good thing for her by the way if those kind of conversations are not making the edit I'm kind of wondering does she win this season like I feel like you want to give some credit to the person who wins the season so it puts me a little bit lower on her possibility of coming back and winning the show but I do want to bring up kiwi skirt's comment here we love at K kid when people disagree with me and it happens very often I'm thick skinned right I'm used to people not agreeing with me half of the time Kahuna doesn't agree with me

25:38 So she says I don't agree with Chris I think fil is looking thinner and Cory would take him in a h braw and I will say this I have noticed that FY like he didn't look as like musly as some of the other guys like I mean Josh looked like an absolute tank bro like did you see the physique on Josh like listen the guy might not be an athletic person but definitely he's doing some stuff right in his in his diet and doing some stuff right going into the gym because he's put on some muscle like when you put Josh and fie next to each other and Josh is about the same size you would look at them and say Josh should be able to take fessie but we know he wouldn't be able to but just physically he looks bigger than fessie right now fessie doesn't look that big he's tall but not as musly I would say yeah and Danica here says Chris fessie gaer you're going to elate people that's for sure who's next Ashley and D listen oh D oh no I'm not gonna I'm not I'm not I'm not I'm not gonna go that far like I think Ashley does have her moments on the show it's messy and can be fun but I'm not going to I'm not going to go and say I'm a d supporter and we're in Australia we can't even like we can't even support AA that's the sucky thing like when D came when D first came on I was like

26:58 Vietnamese girl from Australia I like I know girls like that like in my life I the area that I live in Southwest Sydney is near a suburb called cabata which is very heavy populated with Vietnamese and I grew up with a lot of friends that were D essentially in my te years so when D did not do good things was really disappointing for me yeah orus say C the only proven com is Tori Desi has been super hit and miss this season Mela always struggled Under Pressure I said I a hot take and it was definitely one I think Michaela is starting to like physically she's starting to play the game really well but we are going to get into some of the social stuff which I think she's struggling a little bit on some of the social aspects of the game right now but it's because she's trying to bulldo her way through the game she's got some great instincts but it's the way that she's approaching it which is quite interesting and I'd love to hear your thoughts on that but ultimately we do get Cory and Michaela winning this challenge which means that they're going to go into the vote with all the power going back to the house and this is going to mean that going back in there Michaela has a conversation with the girls she talks to her girl Chanel her girl desie and she's like listen

28:18 This is the time now I got to make a move we don't want to run this game against Tori at the end which instinctively sounds right but if you're Desi and you're Chanel the last person you want to see going into the arena at this stage is story because you know your number might get called and this is the thing options this is why cassid is calling them out and they can't understand it cassid is like you're afraid you're scared you're scared of going down there and taking on anybody and Cassidy's got some there's some truth to it you know there's some truth to it they don't both dii and Chanel don't want the smoke they don't want to go up against Tori with good reason though right like not only is her reputation I want yeah like not only is she a the current main Show Champion was in the world championship has been on like every iteration and brought her back six seven seasons in a row but they literally saw her absolutely body a two-time champion in Jana earlier this season and you know do they risk we haven't had a hall braw yet you know we haven't we haven't seen a real really bad headbanger do they want that to be the one where they go in with Tori if Tori's in there it's Cassidy Michelle Michaela is safe it's Chanel or it's Desi and they've got a 50% shot

29:39 Of being the one to go up against Tori like you know or 25% but of the two of them 50% of the women is going to be one of them two it's a hard It's A Hard Sell like I get it we don't want to face her in the end but I want to get to the end and if tor's in that the elimination it's probably going to be one of us like you know who wants if you want to take Tori out you're not going to put Michelle up against her you know what I mean if your intent is to take Tori out you're not going to put a Cassidy up against her so what's the point of putting her in if you're not going to actually put in the best to try to take her out because then she just comes back yeah no it's very true and obviously they're like you're aligned with us don't put us under pressure but Michela is running out of numbers at this stage of the game like who else is there outside Tor it's there's really no one it's just Cassidy I guess but both Chanel Andi clearly feel like if they get thrown in against Cassidy they can take her they feel confident in their ability and they still believe like Chanel said last week that Cassidy is a layer yes lovable Nikki is in the house hello lovable Nikki welcome back to the stream just in time to tell me to simmer down because I was throwing a couple of bullets out there at D Chanel I don't think that Nikki liked that too much but yeah

30:59 Like I feel like they do talk her out of it slightly because going into the nominations she still has that in her mind but she has to work with Corey that's I think that's the main thing I think if there was any leeway with Corey maybe she might have tried to wiggle it in a little bit more and throw it out because even though I said like there's always the danger of Tor coming back you never know but they're at the tippy top of the like the time for consequences is slipping away she if this is the final thing if this is the final emulation for women or whatever it is and we're get into the final one eventually then you know you got to take your shot now because the consequences can't come back in the finals you know so we'll see yeah Andre Lee welcome to the live as well just in time to remind you that the hall braw should still be on between you and Corey Kahuna you know because he I will say this Andre Lee K's been finding it very difficult to give praise to Cory this episode as well he did he did an amazing job in that in again taking F he was the underdog and he beat him fair and square big props for that's not an was that about what about what did you say about a record long time since the last time they yeah 17 attempts to win a individual Challenger took him and six full

32:19 Calendar years so many seasons he's never won a single daily challenge individually soy he has to always add that little bit of extra in there and if you put him in a h braw against me another elimination he will never win the BK out on the prow will says my thoughts about the Voting is that Cory should have put up bananas because they are close of making the finals and Cory not taking a shot of bananas now guarantees he gets second place because Banas is going to win the whole bloody show he's the best to ever do at Kahuna and he's still there yeah they're letting him slide man that's a hard one if Cory's got any interest like I can understand protecting Tori because you want the women on your side in the finals you need strong women to run with but he needs to take his shot there like if that's what he wants to do she came in with shocking that kuna gives Cory props he's like I'm just like that Goa stop playing with me no listen Pete says even as a straight I must say Cory looks good and worked hard yeah 100% he's been putting in the work in the gym Chris says don't lie to yourself if you saw Cory running at you

33:39 Would start shaking with fear hey give enough of that is there B can we throw out band what's going on here moderators Chris is the moderator Chris is the moderator she's gonna kick you but no listen when it comes to the nominations I thought it was interesting especially the fact that Corey got really annoyed with Michaela which I think tells you a lot about because later on in the episode Cassidy gets annoyed with her as well so it shows you that there is a way that Michaela when she communicates can come across as quite bulldo and we've seen her even sit Cris down a couple of times earlier in the season I love it for a TV show I think it's awesome that Michaela's there and I and I really hope Michaela comes back I feel like she's going to probably win this season big call from me at the moment she's got all the momentum behind her I think she's athletically gifted she didn't get invited to season 39 which clearly means she must have won this season because she's probably the biggest female character of the season and then Michelle goes back so we know Michelle doesn't win it so if I had to like guess right now I'd say m Michaela's probably winning it but even if she doesn't win I really hope Michaela comes back because I feel

34:59 Like she's got that dog in her she's got that you know even though socially sometimes she's not I don't think the best and how she gets a point across and how she gets people on board it's going to make for great drama on the main show as well hey kuna would you endorse that as well she's easily cemented a ticket back like any time she wants like they would love the fact that she's going hard at it she's not just there for the holiday she's there to really stamp you know her name on this challenge especially after like they obviously like it to the point where they brought her on to the main show before casting on the USA right she made it she didn't do well but she made she did well enough and impressed enough people to come back for this and now she's like booking her ticket she's dominating physically she's throwing weight around she's trying different things and she's in a really strong female Alliance which you know we don't get to see very often so she's yeah solidifying a spot for sure they're going to invite her back no worries Ki SC makes a great comparison here says that she's very much like Spock from Star Trek to the point no emotion involved I love it via that is yep got that and I think that you know again outside of like well cassid who's been a big part of the show as well I just don't there's this doubt

36:19 In me that cassid is going to win it I feel like she's got the underdog edit I don't think she's going to win it I don't know if she's got it in her yet she to me comes across as someone that needs to go back and train a lot for future seasons and come back and she may be a lot more competitive even though she's got the scrappiness in her and she's proven herself already in the sand I don't know if this is her season Michaela I feel like has had a big season and then outside of Michaela Tori man even in the confessionals like I put up a clip of new school versus old school with the two Survivor girls fighting each other out in the wrestling and Tori is like where did you get these girls SmackDown one's got like one's got like the Scorpion the other one's doing the clam you know like she's like Tori is like I was just thinking in that moment this is why they keep inviting Tori back you can hate on her all you want she is bloody good in the confessionals she is entertaining in the confessionals she's very good she knows what she's doing that's for sure I grew up watching like obsessed with wrestling my mother my mom was like little tiny Filipino lady that would just wake me up in the middle night to watch wrestling and I was watching I'm like I don't remember there ever being a move called a clam lock that they edited together while Chanel was wrapping her legs around Michaela's face I'm like

37:39 Don't put clam loock while they're doing that kind of action I'm like what is happening here I don't even know yeah so Chris says cassid won't win this season that's okay car Maria didn't win for a while either right Chris yep 100% she didn't and that's why I think people are making that comparison because K Maria well car Maria did way worse than Cassidy on the first season she went out first actually with derell right was like I think it was first That season it's a horrible performance and then she came back in fresh meets too so Oro says who is Chris all who is Chris all on the bananas train for the final I think we are on banana second place era I don't know oh I don't know like I think bananas is great in the final like B's lost the previous final that he that he ran kuna because he was being weighed down by Nani let's be honest yeah like n was never going to win a final this time who's going to weigh him down is it gon to be Desi is it gonna be Michaela is it going to be Tori is it going to be Chanel I don't know which one of those girls are going to weigh him down I don't feel like he's got a none there in the final with him look he's also going up against a pretty strong finals men like of the guys who's left cuz yeah Cory's still there

39:00 Cory's still I mean Cory's certainly a competitor Cory's not a winner yet and I'm hoping he proves me wrong but to leave fessie there Chris they're not leaving there by choice there's no there's no choice they not he's taking the choice away from them by forcing his way into a finals it looks like he hasn't got an easy run against him but it's certainly within his skill set to beat a for like this like Cory's never done it fy's never done it Chris has never done it he's so you're saying that the Seven Rings count for nothing and the fact that the other guys a cumulative of zero Rings between them is more of a danger going into the final for no I'm saying like he's in a really good position like they're not easy guys but as far as experience goes he's got you know in Spades over any of them really First's gone to a few now Cory's always has gone to finals as well so it's not like they're without their chance but he's got to look at and go no Jordan no West no like he's got to be looking and going these are the pretty good you know final to run against I think if bananas and if bananas gets to this final and one of these younger guys like Chris just mentioned here Cory fessie or Chris maybe Josh not Josh if one of them do end up beating bananas in the final here does this

40:20 Make City's wins that much more impressive because he got so many like he got quite a few of his wins after 40 right where bananas as he's like getting older maybe he's slowing down and C's only getting better I'm actually really fascinated by the potential storylines of this finals coming out because if you think about who we've got left we've got bananas in a really good position to go for eight and what that does to his legacy how does it compare to CT and things like that because as he said he's getting his eighth one the like more than anyone else which he already has but he's getting it in his 40 40s he's now 40 so that's a huge storyline potentially like Legacy ceiling kind of thing we got fessie and Corey going never winning yet so they're on the you know they're on their Arc for their first championship do they make the leap to start saying that they're in that you know deserve it of that Legend and the icon status that they've already been sort of planted with or not fessie but Cory anyway got Josh on the precipice of his first finals which is hilarious to think of about and then Chris if Chris can do what do come through this is this like the greatest one season performance ever to go through what he's gone through is the gauntlet of eliminations and

41:40 Then win against the bananas against the F like there's a lot of story lines that could play out that are really fascinating we'll talk about some records later on when we talk about Chris's performance for this season which I think is quite interesting Andre Lee tagged me in a few things on Twitter so I can read that I'm not going to pretend like I knew the backstory or the history about everything about the challenge because I'm definitely not at that level you know Drew would have probably known this I should have had Drew on it because he could verify for me if it's correct or not but it is an impressive performance from him definitely let's finish off with the vote here so in the vote I thought it was impressive where Michela was like okay I can't get Corey to say Tori so let me just give Cory the vote and she knew Cory was going to go for Cassidy right like this is obvious I'm going to have to sacrifice Cassidy but she wanted to Garner some good faith with Chris and she's like I'll choose the man are you accepting that and he's like yep Sweet let's do it so at least she got somewhat of what she wanted half of what she wanted which was to get Tyler into the vote and this is where it gets interesting because now Tyler and Cassidy are both up for the vote the boys they end up going outside having a conversation Josh once again is dictating the vote he's sort of talking to them saying like listen we're going to try and fool Chris and say it's going to be a

43:00 Girl night but we're going to all stack our vote on Chris because we want Chris to go in we want to make it a man's night I thought that was interesting so just a quick shout out to Josh we don't have to dive too deep into that unless you want to and then we have the scene little bit of a party scene everybody letting loose that's where Cassidy makes out with Michelle highlight of the episode and we also get the Cassidy and Michaela standoff where she's like you're so cold emotionalist you're calculated you're not you're not you know well I felt it was like a little bit hard on Michaela in that moment because Michaela really she didn't have anywhere to go she was trying to explain like listen who's Cory got like who's his people there's only so much I can do for you at this moment Cassidy yeah they're running out of numbers to pick from like unless you want me to throw Desi or you know Chanel ahead of you like what do you want me to do here there's nowhere I can go when tor's completely off the table it's you or Michelle essentially right we've gone through everyone we've dominated this game it's Survivor strong as far as the women goes so far we haven't got a lot of options left they going to the arena and they have to put their votes in and Tori ends up with three votes in the hopper Michelle had a big decision to make here kuna she could stick with Survivor and vote

44:20 For Tori someone she's played the main show with but someone who's never been on her side in the main franchise or she could play for future seasons and solidify maybe a friendship with Tori by showing some loyalty in this moment she chose the ladder do you like this move from Michelle in the moment for this game maybe not the best but did you like it for future Seasons I think so like she knows she's coming back or at least hoping to come back there's not a lot of options left and as far as who is more likely to come back and have you know a chance to have your back and repay you Tori is you know 100% she's coming back and if you're getting good with the vacation Alliance you're probably setting yourself up for be to be in a good position in future Seasons so yeah and as far as who can also do more damage against you potentially T is the one you want to side with as well I think so I'm fine with that Pete says how is it that I'm never in a room where a woman just feels like making up with someone I don't think you're the only one p like that doesn't happen very often it's happened before in the challenge though this surely this is not the first time but it's I feel like it's been a while since we've had a bit of a loose scene like that I mean Michelle also probably say that yeah

45:40 The Survivor but where does she stack where does she rank in that Survivor group in The Secret Garden she's got to see the how close Chanel Desi and Michaela are that she would be at the bottom of that and she couldn't make it can argument to get a little bit closer to Tori and be higher on her priority list as well you know well I think that Michelle this season have been kept safe by both Survivor and the Vets right she clearly I love Michelle as like a person I think she's an awesome person even like in the moment where cassid is kissing her and she's like whatever like if she needs to do this for her to like you know just had a tough time I'll let her you know get a kiss you know type of thing she's just one of those people that goes with a flow which I really enjoy about Michelle's personality I think she's got a cool personality but as a competitor she's probably the weakest one out of all of them right there at the moment like she what has she done this season except really struggle on the on the dailies you know and I would love for Michelle to come in and just like prove me wrong smash it out because I like Michelle so much as a personality but as a competitor I don't know like I feel like she's in danger next 100% she's in danger and if she goes up against Cassidy she's losing Cassidy's got that fight in her she's got that dog in her in the in the sand depends what it is

47:00 I guess I mean Michelle went down this season right she's been in the sand already she came back but Cassidy is also Cassidy is also good mentally like she's not bad mentally and she's physically Scrappy yeah so I don't know I don't know it's like Michelle's storyline this season has been she's all bark but no bite that's even what Chanel said in the wrestling this specific episode when she took her out you know so I don't know I could be wrong I could be wrong like I hope I'm wrong on this one but I just don't see it Chris does end up vot getting six votes which is a lot everybody is like piling in on him and it does end up with Chris going into the arena for his fourth time to compete against Tyler and Tyler is no like easy beat either like he is physically pretty capable he's a smart guy this was really a good battle for him to get into and the what they had to do was called Barrel tag where they had these two barrels that they had to move and catch each other I thought Chris was at a massive disadvantage because he had to go and tag Tyler first I feel like him going second on the chase wasn't the best because you know you could waste time using the barrels and things in the arena to try and slow

48:20 Someone down which he did and he wasted time trying to do that thinking that maybe it would work in Tyler's case he was like nope I'm not even gonna I'm not even going to attempt that same strategy I'm just going to try and do something different because it was so bad when Chris tried it so he kind of stayed on the opposite he stayed on the opposite side of the Arena the whole time which meant that Chris had to move further than what Tyler did yeah so I felt like Chris was actually at a disadvantage going second on the chase here yeah I wish like the challenge did a better job and we've said this before of just explaining or put up a quick screen grab or whatever of what the rules are and what's allowed and what's not allowed because I thought when Chris sort of said I'm going to get to those barrels and use them as impediments I thought he's going to like Donkey Kong and just try to throw them directly at Tyler or at least too danger maybe it must roll or hit the ground first like we need to know can you can you imagine if you hit someone with a barrel jeez I thought maybe like hit you can hit the barrel at least but it felt like you had to hit the ground yeah first like it specifically had to bounce or whatever I wanted to see him use the middle platform the big block in the center like maybe you could use it as a like

49:41 You know how like when you in the movies they run around this the car you can't get me because there's a car in the middle of us and whenever you go that way I'll go the other way kind of thing like there was more things that could have been done that weren't potentially you know used but I did appreciate the fact that like Chris just really brute strengthed his way through it and they actually use that in the edit Tyler's like on the other end and Chris is like just moving the barrels like very just I'm gonna throw these down and run at you as best you can when you bulldo down that he absolutely bulldozed down that and it's like he's like I could just hear this grunting as he's coming for me and then the last Barrel that he did as well like we I was like that is such a risky because he was doing it like a big risky strategy he knew he had to bucket it this was his life in the game and Chris yeah I've said this many of times on the podcast before some people have got BMT big match temperament and others don't Chris has got so much of it like yeah like he's the guy that if you're doing basketball and the buzz is going and you need a three-pointer he's the one that's going to SN it he's that guy he is that guy and the way that he went about doing that barrel roll the whole time and climbing onto it I was like man he's going to lose his balance he's going to fall off I found it hard to watch I was so nervous because at this point I'm fully behind Chris

51:01 And I want him to do the underdog thing and get to the final because no one else wants him to get there I'm always finding myself shouting for the underdog and then that last Barrel where he physically jumps from his Barrel onto Tyler's barrels to get him such a risky move but it played off he fell he fell so if he didn't get the tag would have been all over so yeah he's all or nothing yeah he's all or nothing and there's a couple of really good comments that's come in Chris says Chris booked it on those barrels yes he did king cooper asks not sure if this has been said yet but is Chris's performance in the challenge does Chris's performance in the challenge change people's view on his Survivor win I don't think it does I've always been in the of the opinion personally like it for me this is the way I look at it as a big Survivor fan Chris won that season fair and square the winner of each season deserves to win it because he played by the rules of that season but when people do winner rankings and Chris takes this very personally because people he feel like underestimate him he played a different game to what other people played Survivor is not like the challenge where from one season to the other season the rules change significantly with the challenge you accept that because that's part of the challenge it always has been part of the challenge and it's actually fun and keep the show entertaining in Survivor

52:22 The fundamentals about Survivor is as long as there's on your torch you've got a life in the game but if your fire is snuffed your life in the game is done and they broke it that season by allowing the edge and for a player to come back and win it and specifically in the way that he want it so because of that when you do a winners rankings of Chris you got to rank him separately because he played a different game to everybody else and he normally is put at the bottom but I've always said like even coming into it I picked him he was my I think it was like my second person in the draft because I had the sixth overall guy pick and I picked him at that point and I said well I think he's got a lot of physical ability I saw some great strategy from him towards the end of Survivor in regards to being able to win the game because someone else also had that opportunity and didn't do it right so it shows that it's not as easy to do as people may think so and I knew he's a likable guy so I always liked him as a person as when I didn't like as much but Chris is taking it very personally which sucks but I do think that this is going to definitely get people behind him a l more I like people are defitely like wow I'm alreadying we need him on another season like Dan you know Tyler's already set up for Rivals with Chris and ex's with Angela and I could easily see Chris coming back in the future as well I think that he's adding a

53:42 Lot how his Survivor win is viewed he'll always still have an asterisk in a lot of people's minds but what I think it does do is solidify the underdog come from behind like Against All Odds kind of persona like to go from a show like Survivor and win from Edge Of Extinction and then to come to a show like this and play with his back against the wall and go into elimination after elimination after elimination that sort of type of persona of the ultimate Scrappy underdog if he wins this like holy crap that's cemented as one of the biggest in history like to have both Survivor and the challenge wins from behind essentially especially the whole season long he's doing it here on Survivor that is a is a tribute in and of itself is he one of the greatest Survivor winners no but is he the greatest comeback Underdog that played you know absolutely that's a that's you know a legacy now that he'll have for sure which is a cool Legacy to have like if you could choose to have a legacy you want to be the guy that people are like this guy is difficult to get like if you see Chris walk into the next challenge people are going to be like how do we get this guy out like can we get him out banana

55:02 Said at this episode and that's coming from bananas right like yeah who has faced the greatest is the greatest and he said like now we're looking at a guy like we need to get him into elimination but now we look at a guy like that and go who's going to get him out and that's a question that they've all got in the back of their heads similar to what I guess we saw Desi and Chanel verbalizing at about Tori like yeah you can put her in but who's going to go against her Chris has got that reputation for sure now like the CT intimidation factor for sure yeah after he could play into that he could play into he could be like in the next season you know guys don't want to go against me I send people home you know that's what I do so like he's got an aura about him now which a lot of new players don't always have but Oro here says Chris is the male Don dicki give me whatever he needs I am so glad Chris played the season he has become main state if he want wants to play and then also here Willie saying Christen the challenge has done very good and could win the season Luciana welcome to the live I did see your comment earlier as well I just didn't have an opportunity to bring it up so I'm glad I can do it now Luciana says agree Chris he won his season but that doesn't make him a great Survivor winner also says also I think that his turn this turn on the challenge is showing his faults on the social game which are definitely does but also let's be honest like it's hard

56:22 When you're going up against like friends outside of the game like it's hard to penetrate that so you can forgive him like slightly but definitely his social game isn't perfect but that's the thing about the challenge it doesn't need to be perfect on the social game as long as you can win it right if you can win the arena Chris also says it isn't Chris's fault he was on the season with convoluted rules and twists just an innocent gorgeous man lost in avoid of Survivor twists from cash wash yep Pete says I've heard his season of Survivor was more like the challenge than it was like any previous season of Survivor is this is true it is why he is doing so well in the challenge it definitely prepared him because similar to the challenge instead of just getting voted out and not having a fighting chance to get back into the game he had an opportunity to compete against others to get back into the game which he won the challenge they got him back in the game to ultimately go on and win or says if Chris wins that odds do we see him on season 40 you re me if he wins if he's a champion and season 40 does what I'm hoping it does and tries to be all Champions that's why 39 is a battle for I'm hearing rumors that it's not I'm hearing rumors not it's just my little fantasy that I'm hoping and wish because I don't think that they can get enough Champions to come back for season 40 either but I'm hearing that it's

57:43 From what I've heard and I haven't stayed up to date with it I know these things change very quickly that it's potentially like a Champions versus like there's some element of Champions versus players who haven't won before from what I've I saw one of the posts that said that they've reached out to people that includes Champions finalists and non-f finalists and I went well that covers every single person that's every ever stepped on the show like Champions finalist yeah that's everyone like what are you talking about so we can't wait until season 50 because CT would be 60 or in his 50s by then you know like we need it to happen now Champs Champions versus finalists could be an interesting concept as well but they kind of had that with all star didn't they all stars three I feel like it was like Champions versus people who've made a final before could be wrong but one of the very impressive things here on this elimination was Chris's record now on this thing specifically Andre Lee tagged me in this and says Chris's win being the fourth elimination he's now the ninth player in challenge history hist to win four eliminations in a single season Chris is only the fourth player to win four solo eliminations in one season which put him

59:04 In very esteemed company if he goes on to win a fifth one I don't know how many people have won five of them ker in a season I think he I think if there's another one he is yeah he'll have the record for most Elimination wins in the season which is crazy to think about but I mean look who's left if is there won't be another male one it would have to be female right the're 65 so I don't even know if you'll get the chance here well no well how many people left in the in the GU side we've got fessie Josh bananas Chris and Cory and Cory so five yeah so maybe that is the final yeah and sex woman so maybe one more because we've got I think we've got one more episode coming in and then maybe one more woman leaves and then we get the final with five and five and five yeah that's what I would that's what I would imagine Chris is not happy about me say everybody ages Chris like you know at some point CT will become 60 it may just not be by season 50 but with the pace that they're going at right now they're not churning out these Seasons like they used to the main show is like giving us one season one a year like it's not two a year anymore because they've got too many All Star Seasons to FM USA Seasons World Championship Seasons

1:00:24 To FM so they're busy at the moment they're cooking up a lot of shows for us Andre saying they need another battle of the ex's that' be fun I don't know if they're is well they'll make up excess if they need to they're not above it yeah they needed to get the whatever they want C and Michelle ended up being on the season together as ex's because they snogged once on the challenge Papa Willie saying all it takes is for Chris going against Josh and he will get his fifth elimination W which would be very impressive very impressive if he can get that D saying was it might be Grandpa C at that point will LS Chris may be able to beat everyone left except Cory he's never beating Cory K oh no will be that Chris another for him to get that record I don't know it'll be I kind of want him to get theim record I want him to win now that like I imagine that as imagine that as a rookie season against the vets that he's actually gone in a season with bananas and West fessie Cory like imagine going up against four eliminations winning them out including taking out a West oh and I saw someone say as far as statistics go it's the first ever grand slam they

1:01:44 Called it in challenge history so he's g into four eliminations but in that four eliminations he took out a big brother a Survivor a challenge Road Rules veteran and who was the other one an amazing race so he took out all four shows in all four his inations going through the gamut which is does that make survivor the superior show right now until someone can beat him it's clearly showing that it is right like especially on the women's side like that's dominant if they can get to the finals with four out of like f what four out of five women would be Survivor if Tori still goes and then only one on the men's side but yeah if Chris wins this I am so like I'm I want Battle of the seasons I want Battle of the seasons but like Battle of the shows like let's get a season with a Survivor team a challenge Legends team you know Amazing Race and big brother out there and let's have them go at it and actually keep it in that team format for a season I really want to see that player I don't know if anybody else wants to see that but I think that would be cool you can get some of the best of the challenge together it' be interesting to see what fessie goes in as like if he if he would still be a big brother player in that season and still not be recognized as a challenger even after clear playing as a chall season am

1:03:04 I need for the numbers though I thought that's what the world championship was going to be but based on geography right like you had the teams already sort of set up so CH show off I like that Pete or with you man he likes he likes Cory but he kind of doesn't want to see him win similar to you know you like Cory but you kind of don't think he's good enough coner yeah and maybe I'm just like holding out for when he finally proves me wrong I'm not going to be one of those guys that's bitter about it when he proves me wrong I'll be happy for him but I just don't see it I don't see it just before we close off the live here final thoughts on the women you mentioned that they were quite strong we've kind of mentioned that like I'm with you I want Chris to win you know team Survivor until the end until they're all out of the game I'm going to support Chris going into the final and he's got this great Underdog Story at the moment but from a woman's perspective I mentioned that I think it could be Michaela season I would love for it to be Michaela season I feel like she's doing a lot on that side and giving us great entertainment I also love Desi but she's been very quiet Chanel hasn't really been doing much Tori would again just prove and solidify her own legacy as becoming one of the you know the best female competitors to ever compete at this stage if she could win this one but I'm behind Michaela so for me at the moment it's

1:04:24 Probably Chris and Michaela is the two that I'm sort of feeling and gravitating towards who do you think and the wom who what's your thoughts there so for the women like you said Tori can never be counted out if she gets to the final she's always in with a Chance even she's only done it once but she gets far and she you know she's very capable for me there's only three it's Tori Michaela and Desi I would love to see Michaela win it like based on what she's done so far in her story I'd love to see that would be my favorite I think Desi is in with a really good shot potentially to win that and yeah I'd love to see Chris win as I'd love to see bananas get that eight to really kind of like push himself that extra thing and to get it so late in life like with CT but Chris's story would be amazing to go through what he's gone through and then win that's what I would love to see the most yeah Den say Chris you're killing me with this short lives K take control well listen we've gone through everything we've gone through everything that we possibly could for this episode but I will say we're going to be back within about an hour to talk about Wheel of Time so if you do watch Wheel of Time make sure that you stick around to come and check and hang with myself

1:05:44 And will as we talk about the latest episode it's been a pretty good show so far cash is saying I'm rooting for Corey Chris Michaela desie wouldn't mind wouldn't be mad if Cassidy happened same with nanas yeah bananas kind of want to see him like add to that Legacy a little bit as well like I yeah he's done well this season especially for like especially for how much Flack I got in the draft kuna everybody was laughing at me telling me how silly I was to pick bananas he's that's never a bad pick he's shown historically statistically it's always a good pick look bananas has his detractors obviously a lot of don't like him and with very good reason he's a bit of a jerk but I have this thing where like if he does go down later and we look back in 10 years and go no he really was the greatest to do what he did is pretty impressive I like the thought of being along for that ride and if he can get his eighth and go yeah we watched him get his eighth one we were there rather than looking back at it I'm trying to recognize at the time what we're seeing with someone like bananas in a show like this is pretty special and unique it doesn't happen very often and we don't have it for that much longer which we're starting to see with the West now and seeing CT a lot less frequently as well so it's going to happen father

1:07:04 Time is the only player that's completely undefeated so when someone like bananas is still doing it appreciate it's is what I'm saying you know yeah well he's going to be on House of villain he's moving on to traitors so two more shows that he could potentially go win probably Big Brother after that he's mentioned a few times he'd love to play Big Brother so I'm sure he's going to you know extend that 15 years of Fame and stretch it out to 25 if he can the guy's really good at that so willly here says I'm rooting for Chanel Desi Michaela Chris and Cory and Jos if he can make the finals Den says I know but I need to watch the first season next series you decide to cover you need to give me a few weeks notice to pre-at yep no problems we'll do go watch Wheel of Time it's a good show and I know that Dolores watched it because she's like I saw the last episode it was wild Chris is the only reason they were giving you a hard time is because they wanted him only reason they were given you a hard time is because they wanted him oh right they want yeah lucana says Michaela is the star of the Season Desi deserves Redemption Chanel isn't showing up on the dailies Cassidy is a tossup but on a final she could surprise that Michelle could be there that's true duu Sor Legacy what's that winning against Nani and Ana listen

1:08:24 She's like I would love to see a rematch against Nani and Ana right now because tor's only getting better she's getting better and better the more she goes on like you got to you can you can hate on all you want but if she ends up winning this what would that be like they act like it's individual though it's Nani and Ana who is with Jordan and bananas right like you know what I mean like when you go oh against Nani and Isa no it's against Nani and bananas and Ana and Jordan and she was with Devon like that shows that she carried her teammate harder than you know like to go up against them so yeah she needs a few more I do think Tori should will win a few more but she does need she gets to the finals and she was She'll always get to the finals if she can win this one against the Michaela and against ADI it's pretty impressive but yeah Tori needs to get to she does need a few more but the thing is with women her competition isn't that deep K Maria's only has K Maria got two or three car Maria's got two I think in the main show and then and then Champs was one of the Champs was the star Seasons I feel like as well it doesn't but that's well tor's got chance for a star as well I think but that's what I mean like with the women to be solidified in her

1:09:44 Legacy Kara Maria is the goat woman she's only got two Laurel's only got two I think like there's not that many oh one for Laurel is it so that's what I mean like the competition she has to solidify that Legacy is not that far there's a lot of women that were very good they just don't come back as often to get the three four five six rings you know yeah if Tori does it while Cara is around I'll respect her and that's what I was just going to bring up duu actually she's been gone while Tori has flourished coincidence 100% agree with that 100% like Tori and K Maria at their Peak but because they needed to take karia away for Tori to flourish because she would never have won if karia was there I feel like personally because K Maria did not like Tori she was going after Tori taking her out I would have loved to have seen at their Peak them going against each other but here's the good thing about K Maria she's looking in shape right now you know she's working out she's I don't know if I agree with that to that K marray had to be removed for Tor because the difference between the to Cara definitely can beat her but this game is not individual and it never is and we saw that the season they did interact it was it was basically

1:11:05 Yeah Jordan and Tori were on the outside against Paulie and car's Mean Girls group this is a good point from Luciana yeah that's also a good point for sure but Cara Maria I don't think comes in with a strong crew to protect her every season she did have it one scene but that's always been Cara Maria's thing right that she's on the out she never has protection she's targeted because she is so strong Cory's whole tor's whole thing is that she is always protected she always has strong alliances and she's always insulated so in a season where these two come together who's going to have the relationships that can actually protect them from going to elimination more and at the moment because of the you know the way it's been it's Tor 100% yeah but it's because they removed karia so duu definitely has a point in that sense because at the point that they removed K Maria karia had it on down pad how many how many finals was that in a Runa that she made before they had to remove from the game because she kept making finals it was like nine or 10 finals in a row she made like was insane it's insane she house on lock like Tori couldn't flourish socially if K Maria was there like car Maria had all the people she well it depends on the people right that's what I mean they changed the board change the board is what I'm trying to say yeah

1:12:25 Yeah for T you reckon oh 100% I do feel like listen I you can't you can't like you have to give credit where it's due I'm not just hating onor for hating onori she's done a lot of good things as well like I even said her confessionals are fun like even this episode I was like man she's good at that yeah so you got to give her credit for that as well but I do think that Duo's got a point at least oh I'm not saying without point for sure which is what's basically done as well yeah K car Maria is amazing and I think in a finals one-on-one I have Kara Maria over Tori easily I just think that the crew that K Marie was building up let it be known let it be known P the only woman well I guess I guess Jenny West would have been the second one if they didn't change the rules at the end and allowed bananas to get a seventh title conspiracy theories anyways on that note it's been a lot of funing to everybody foil hat out get the foil hat out it's been a lot of fun talking to everybody about this latest episode loveable Nikki here goes Kahuna car definitely had to leave for Tori to win be for real here we go lovable Nikki let them know let them know it's been a lot of fun talking to everybody about this week's action here on
