BB26 Roundtable: The BB26 House Will Never Be the Same, Week 3

[00:00:15] Hello everyone and welcome to the Big Brother 26 Roundtable podcast. I'm of course your host here, Taren Armstrong, and this is of course the podcast where we talk about everything from the feeds.

[00:00:29] We also rate players 1 to 10 based on how well we think they are doing in the game. You are allowed to play from home at realitystockwatch.com where you can buy and sell shares of the players week

[00:00:41] to week. You also get a chance to rate yourself, not rate yourself the person, but rate yourself the players with the survey I send out every week. You have still roughly 20 minutes to go

[00:00:54] fill that out if you want to over on my Twitter. But we are here to talk about quite the week, quite the few days at the very least because the house has been in chaos. It's been in turmoil.

[00:01:08] And nobody likes chaos and turmoil better than my first guest. It's Amon. How are you doing, Amon? Amon Moorehead, Real Estate Investor Hi, I'm Amon and I like chaos and turmoil. Thank you, Taren, for having me here on StockWatch. Thanks. I'm back. We back, baby. It's me,

[00:01:24] Amon, and I'm back to take your things. Taren Armstrong, Real Estate Investor I'm just so happy that you're talking. Amon Moorehead, Real Estate Investor Yeah. I'm Amon. Why wouldn't I talk? I'm Amon. This is what I always do.

[00:01:36] You know, they said Chappelle was gonna be here. I said, Nope, I'm Amon. It's me. So here we are. The chat was very hyped for Amon and and here we are. We have Amon for you. Also with us tonight, it's Puya. How you doing, Puya?

[00:01:50] As a self rated seven out of 10, I'm very excited to break things down and to probably I was gonna say I'm not gonna bless anyone's stocks. I think I'm only gonna trash everyone's stock. So I'm

[00:02:01] excited to be here. It's gonna be a fun time. Yeah. Yeah. If you have stocks, I would be wary. What's sad, Taren? I forgot to start StockWatch for week one. I missed the week one mark.

[00:02:16] Last week, I was like, I'm not forgetting this week. Boom. We bought stocks. I wish I would have forgotten. Would have been better probably. Hopped out. See, this is a bad week.

[00:02:25] This is a bad week to be buying and putting your stock into anybody because these people are cracked and you got me on this cracked ass panel. So, yeah, anything can happen. Clutch your stocks

[00:02:36] closely right now because I'm about to hurt some feelings. Yes, I think I got my buy in with about 30 seconds to spare as I literally just clicked the first person that seemed reasonable to me.

[00:02:52] We will see how that went for me. But I do have a feeling that the the BB stock market might be looking a little bit like the US. Oh, God, what a week for the stocks. Not a good one.

[00:03:09] But we'll have to wait and see on that. Let's talk about the week. Of course, if you're listening to this podcast and you're wondering, wait, that didn't sound like. That's because I think we have an imposter. I was expecting them on. But for some reason,

[00:03:25] Chappelle is here. Yeah, it's me. Chappelle, I'm gone now. I'm on his guard and I'm here. Like if there was if I was going to be here, then I think it would have been fine. I think

[00:03:35] it would have been OK. This would have been a cool podcast. But I'm here. This was a chaotic week. We had to break glass in case of chaos and bring me in to add more chaos to the stock watch. So,

[00:03:45] yes, no, I'm on. But definitely some Chappelle action today. All right. Well, let's get into it because there's a lot to recap. Of course, the last time we spoke, Chelsea was the H.O.H.

[00:03:58] and it was looking we had Angela, Lisa and Tucker on the block. And it was just a matter of can Lisa win the arena competition? She, of course, did not. Tucker rushed it. And then that was

[00:04:16] followed up by a Cedric victory in the H.O.H. competition. Cedric then nominated his own set of volunteers in Tucker, Angela and Kenny with the intention of making this a very easy, smooth

[00:04:35] H.O.H. week, similar to Chelsea's so similar that it was basically the same nomination. But there was a little bit of a problem and that problem was the deep, fake H.O.H.,

[00:04:48] not that it had been used against him, but that it was spreading around like wildfire. The secret that Quinn had been keeping very poorly had been spreading around. Angela had told Tucker that Quinn had the power. Tucker did not believe her, could have ended there because she hasn't

[00:05:10] pushed it. But then Kimo confirmed to Tucker that Quinn had the power. And we later found out that Kimo, like Leah, has a bit of a crush on Tucker. And so we are you know, at first I was thinking

[00:05:30] this was Love Island. It turns out we're actually just watching the Bachelor and Tucker is the Bachelor. And who's going to who's going to take his heart? They need him out of the game. Let me

[00:05:43] just let me just go ahead and cut in, Taryn. Tucker needs to go for these people to act like they got some damn sense because Leah is misted by Tucker and his aura, because Kimo is also misted. These

[00:05:54] things are happening. These unforced errors are happening just because this man exists. He's not even interested in these people at all, not even remotely. I think he actually kind of dislikes Leah. You know, he seems like he's fine with Kimo. But you know, to be in this house,

[00:06:06] getting so blinded by the existence of this human, get him out of there when he leaves, all the mist is going to just dissipate and then people are going to start to wake up like, what happened? What was going on? Something different. The mood has changed in here.

[00:06:20] It's like, yes, we can see clearly now because this cloud of Tucker is no longer here, blinding everybody and getting rid of all the common sense in the house. Taryn, this is ridiculous. You know how I know you're right, Chappelle?

[00:06:31] As soon as you said that, I saw a wave of no. Yes. Yes. I was going to say no. If you know, I am someone who I would like to say I'm pretty familiar with my friend Chappelle here.

[00:06:46] Chappelle is 100 saying what he would do if he was in that house and there was someone he was infatuated with who was not giving him the time of day, he would boot them so quickly. He would do everything to get rid of them. Absolutely. Especially if I look,

[00:07:00] the more infatuated you are with this person, you see how your game is going to start to falter. We see these people making unforced errors because of Tucker. He's right there. He's a

[00:07:09] big ass target. Get him out the house and then you can probably play a little bit better. Now, am I saying I want Tucker out for my TV viewing pleasure? No,

[00:07:16] the things we've seen from Tucker this week have been amazing. This is the type of stuff that I want to see on Big Brother. But if you're in this house and you can't even function because there's

[00:07:25] a person walking around ignoring you, you need him out of the game. But I guess we'll talk about that a little bit later on. Well, Tucker, with this knowledge has been sitting waiting, planning.

[00:07:37] I he told first Joseph and then Ham about Quinn's power. Cam then told Cedric they decided screw Quinn. He didn't tell us. They gave Quinn multiple opportunities, all three of them, Cedric, Ham and Joseph separately opportunities to come clean. He still did not. And then Tucker came in

[00:08:05] hot with a pitch, a plan to backdoor Quinn, expose his power, expose his alliances, expose his final twos and send him out the door this week. Now for Tucker, in order to make this

[00:08:22] work, he needed to compete in the arena competition to beat Quinn. So he would, having won the veto, use it on Angela and not himself. Angela being the weakest competitor, most likely to lose to Quinn in the arena competition. He would then stack the arena competition with himself,

[00:08:41] Kenny and Quinn. They would beat Quinn. They would send him out the door. That was Tucker's plan. And it was not a great one because Tucker does have this power. And Cedric is also in multiple

[00:08:56] alliances with Quinn. Or sorry, Quinn has this power. Cedric is in multiple alliances with Quinn. And so after some discussing, some thinking, Cedric decided it is not the time. Taking this risk,

[00:09:12] if I take this shot and we miss for any reason, whether we don't get the votes or Quinn wins the AI arena competition, he then has a guaranteed HOH to take shots right back at me the following week

[00:09:25] and my entire power structure disintegrates. So he decides he's not going to go through with the plan. And instead, he's going to give Quinn a little bit of a warning that Tucker and

[00:09:38] Kenny are trying to pitch a plan against him. He also does give Tucker a warning that the plan is not a go. And he lets Tucker know that he should use the veto on himself and not Angela. Tucker

[00:09:53] doesn't care. Doesn't care, doesn't hear, doesn't feel, doesn't mind. He's going to go ahead and do what he wants. We talked about this this morning. If you want more detail, check out

[00:10:04] the update. It was a long one, but it was very full of things. But basically, in Tucker's mind, I think he was like, well, if I use the veto on Angela, he has to put up Quinn.

[00:10:15] So I'm just going to do it anyway. So Tucker went ahead, did not use the veto on himself, used it on Angela. Cedric then replaced Angela with McKenzie, who had planned to not use her

[00:10:31] veto power, which is a whole other thing. But because she was surprised by Tucker using the veto on Angela and not himself, she did use her power, took herself off the block. And now America

[00:10:45] will be nominating naming the third nomination, their nominee. And through all of this chaos, Tucker publicly out Quinn's power, what he's been doing, why he thinks Quinn is a target and forced

[00:11:00] Quinn to go on an apology tour and went off on Cedric, calling him a rat, a blindsider, a betrayer. He said, you're my primary target. He went after Cedric again later that day. And the whole house

[00:11:17] is still reeling from all of this with Tucker and Kenny, the only two guaranteed people on the block right now, still trying to figure out which of the two of them they should send out the door

[00:11:28] and still trying to figure out who might join them on the block as the third nominee from America. And that is the bare minimum of where we are right now. Yeah, we're scratching the surface wildly enough. It has been. I can't recall the last time a 24 hour

[00:11:48] period has been as this chaotic as it was with going from sorry, Sunday night all the way to here. It has been a lot. I'm not going to count Tuesday as part of it. I feel like America's

[00:12:00] veto being in the air. Everyone's being a little too nice, nice now after what was a wild time yesterday. But you could have sworn if you tell somebody, hey, by the way, Tucker had the diamond

[00:12:11] power of veto. They could and should believe you because he was playing like he had the diamond power of veto. He was waving his power like he had the say on everything. And, you know, I've seen

[00:12:22] quite a few of the podcasters talk about the fact that with some of these, quote unquote, better players playing it so safe and not locking things down, even if they're chaotic, the loud vocal players are getting their way because they're putting stuff out there. And it really looked

[00:12:37] like that was going to be the lay of the land. That's what was going to work out until the spook that hits with regards to putting up Quinn that really derails everything. And I mean, Tucker was

[00:12:47] getting built up to do this all night. And then, you know, Tucker, once he puts his mind to something, he's not going to let it rest. And then so much so that he didn't even believe that

[00:12:57] Cedric's game heads up. He didn't read between the lines with regards to use it on yourself. And now the funniest thing to me was all of this Quinn throwing under the bus only for it to be a

[00:13:09] actually Cedric's my main target. Now, Quinn can be second. I'm moving on to Cedric first. I love it. I love it. I love it. I love it, especially because the other layer to this is

[00:13:20] that, oh, yeah. So whoever ends up as America's vote, we're not going to vote that person out. We've already guaranteed that we've we decided as a family. They're on the block. But that's not

[00:13:31] fair. That's not fair to them. So you might end up with a really juicy target up there sitting next to Kenny or something like that. And just because of, you know, we don't reason really.

[00:13:41] We just decided amongst ourselves, we're just going to let that person make it. They might make it. What if they don't? What if you end up on their block and everybody starts to wake up

[00:13:50] and realize that this person might be the person we need to get out? Then we can see another random ass flip in the house where people turn against somebody who thought that they were going to be

[00:14:00] OK. I'm loving the chaos right now. It's insane. And I need more of this. I stir the pot. Give them more powers. Terran, I know you hate it. I know you hate the twist and turns and stuff like

[00:14:09] what? I need this. I need more of this because you you haven't slept in days, Terran. I know. I know the fees are whooping your ass, but that's OK. Sacrifices must be made. Listen, I I've been I've been pretty pro twist this season. I've read. Yeah,

[00:14:25] I said there's a lot of promise to this. There are ways it could go wrong. I think there are ways that could go right. And I think we've seen both so far and in so far, honestly,

[00:14:36] maybe a little more right than wrong at the moment. And it's always hard to say. Well, not always, but it's sometimes hard to say like, is this casting is this twist?

[00:14:45] I but but whatever it is, I think we're getting good stuff. And I think that in terms of the America's nominee, the real the really, really the only thing to to really talk through, I think,

[00:14:59] is probably the first name that comes to mind, the primary option that we will consider for America's nominee, probably Quinn for a few different reasons. One was the involvement in the Angela stuff a few episodes back, I think. Exactly the kind of like

[00:15:21] fodder for casual fury to be involved in, like a conversation about race. On top of that, he's he you know, he has this kind of like cocky attitude in the DR that could very easily be construed or portrayed to be like villainous, especially as we're talking about

[00:15:43] the Wednesday episode, which I think is going to be the most important one. But then even beyond that, he's going to be the subject of the Wednesday episode. The big move that wasn't ultimately made

[00:15:56] the person that I think a lot of people who are watching the show will feel would cause the most drama if they put him up anyway. So for many different reasons, probably more than I even just

[00:16:07] mentioned, Quinn is is the most likely candidate, not not the only one. I've seen plenty of Joseph. I've seen plenty of Cam. I've even seen a little bit of Leah. But but we mentioned this this

[00:16:18] morning. I think ultimately it's going to come down to what is in that Wednesday episode. We saw Ryan in Big Brother Canada 6 get saved by Canada despite being like ignored and or just disliked throughout most of the season. One episode, one episode, that last episode before that vote

[00:16:36] concluded the hero at it he got is what got him off the block and what got Canada's own favorite screwed because the renown was Erica, who everyone loved. And she went home that night. Exactly. So do not underestimate the edit of that episode. But with that in mind,

[00:16:55] Quinn is also the person who is probably most likely to be voted out if he hits that. It doesn't mean that he will be voted out, but things are definitely not certain at this point

[00:17:09] for Quinn, primarily if he ends up on the block against Tucker, which is the least likely option. It would require any to beat both Quinn and Tucker in the arena, which if we're going by the first

[00:17:24] two weeks of competitions, not super light, like totally, totally likely, I should say, for going by the last three competitions. Like, no, probably not. But but who knows? And if it's Quinn versus Tucker, we've we've gone through these. We went through these this morning,

[00:17:43] but basically it could be a very split vote. It could be six to five as close as six to five. And with people like P Cor and chemo potentially wavering, there are some issues there. And then

[00:18:01] also relying on a player like Joseph to be a swing. Like there are definitely ways where Quinn could still leave this week. And that is a very real possibility. I want the most drama. If that

[00:18:18] means Quinn goes up, but survives the week, that's fine with me because I think the backlash at that point would be better. You know, Quinn stays in. We know what Quinn's probably going

[00:18:28] to do. I mean, he has this H.O.H. power. So if he sticks around, we get to see what it looks like when he decides to take control. We'd like to see the back and forth. To me, the best situation here

[00:18:39] is that we just go ahead and lose Kenny. It'd be great. He doesn't want to be here. He he complains about being in the game all the time. You know, if you put Quinn up and Kenny goes, whatever. But

[00:18:49] if we lose a chaotic force like Quinn or like Tucker this week, the show is going to suffer. We are going to be stuck with Kenny. And I just and I just can't give any credit to somebody who's

[00:19:02] just begging constantly to get voted out of the game. If you're boring, fine. If you're not on the in the feeds that much, fine. But to be on the feeds crying about you want to go home when you can

[00:19:12] just go home. I just can't support that. And so give me whatever is going to cause the most chaos. But by no means do I want either Tucker or Quinn to go this week. This Kenny, it is your time.

[00:19:25] Yeah, I agree. I think there's not going to be a better week to lose Kenny. Like losing Kenny on a chaotic week like this is absolute best case scenario because under most other circumstances,

[00:19:36] a Kenny being voted out week is the most boring week of the of the season because he volunteers for the blog. He basically begs to be voted out and they finally grant his wish and there's no

[00:19:45] other gameplay happening. But for him to be the person that leaves on the back of this week, leaving both Tucker and Quinn and Cedric and everybody else still in the game still mad at each other. The only downside being that Quinn is basically guaranteed the HH next week.

[00:20:02] But like at the very least, you know, that could still easily result in like an MJ or Leah, which I wouldn't be that mad about at this point. I also think there's a good bit of drama to consider if say, because obviously, even though

[00:20:17] some a lot of his relationships right now, Quinn's are strained because of the stuff that happened yesterday. There's also a world where he still feels secure with someone who wins the HH and

[00:20:28] he's not going to want to snatch it from their hands. And then maybe that person puts them up later on because you can't once he decides not to use it after the NOM, it's over.

[00:20:37] So that's drama I would like to see. I would like to see that happen. That could be interesting to me. My whole thing with with twists are I've loved the the America's Vito, the deep fake age. I like

[00:20:47] giving a power to somebody and they want to throw a cop. I'm cool with this. I think two things. Number one, put a rule in that they can't tell anybody penalty vote. We've seen Canada do this

[00:20:57] before. That's definitely the move. But also the counter argument is that we wouldn't have gotten all this all this mess that we got this week. But the other thing for me is I personally do not want

[00:21:09] the audience to get someone out of the game, essentially. And that's the biggest thing for me. And obviously, Quinn being the top candidate, I think you put anybody up there. I don't want

[00:21:19] anyone to go out as a result of us at home getting to decide that was Big Brother one. I don't want that here. I still want Kenny's ass out. I'm sick of playing hot potato of

[00:21:33] I want to go home, but I want my money, but I want to go home. So if it isn't worth it, but if I get a cop, I'm going to throw it. I'm sick of it. I'm sick of it. It does nothing for

[00:21:42] me. A lot of people in that house are sick of it. Mercy kill this guy out of the game so we can get to the meat and potatoes of the season. That's what I want more than anything. And I think that all the

[00:21:53] drama we got, we got now because I think a lot of people like for the drama on Thursday, we need Quinn up. And my thought is what drama we've seen for two weeks. Julie's begging them to do

[00:22:03] something with the drama of like talk to people go one on one Quinn going up. You'll get like maybe what, two minutes of drama if it's Quinn versus Tucker. Right. And then Kenny's still there next

[00:22:14] week on the feed. Kenny's still there saying he wants to quit and then beats cut. We've been talking about how we don't want feed cuts. At least Angela now it's gotten less, but Kenny

[00:22:24] literally has threatened to quit so many times that if he just breathes, they're like, you see, here's a quick cut the feed. Like I don't need that, please. Yeah. And it would be so interesting

[00:22:34] to, to see Tucker with his back against the wall next week, knowing that Quinn has the ability to do this HOH thing. You know, Tucker has all like, he's, he's got this big plan. He's out at this all

[00:22:45] like everything that's going on in the house. And he's really good socially. He's really good socially. People would just throw their game away just because he walks by. And so I would love to

[00:22:55] see, okay, let's see how good he is. If we see him up against some opposition next week, that'd be so cool. But if Kenny stays Tucker, just gonna go back to being Tucker. And I'm like, I need,

[00:23:04] we need more chaos. We need more mess. We need to get rid of the non-factor. I'm sorry, Kenny, it's you. So I don't know what has to happen. I don't know where people are going to vote,

[00:23:12] but at the end of the day, my result is going to be the same. I'm going to need Kenny to, to walk out of this door on Thursday. Yeah. And hell if people want the maximum drama with Quinn,

[00:23:21] I have no issue with Quinn being, being Nama to be very clear. I have no problem with him being the replacement, but I still want Kenny out. I'm still rooting for Kenny and going out

[00:23:30] over anybody. I'm rooting for Kenny going out before. I don't even have a joke. I just want him out. There's no joke. I'm not laughing. No ha ha's here. Get rid of them. Yeah.

[00:23:39] Sam. Yeah. And, and I, I, for what it's worth, I do not think that Quinn is the best person to vote in. If you are hoping for a Kenny eviction, uh, Quinn is probably the worst person because

[00:23:49] Quinn is, I think the only person that could have a chance at stay at leaving, uh, against Kenny on the block. Um, if, if, if, if Quinn loses the numbers like Rubina and T CORE, uh, then he

[00:24:02] will leave against even the likes of Kenny, uh, which, which would be unfortunate. Uh, and I do agree with Puya as well. I hate, uh, audience votes. Everyone knows this. Um, in particular,

[00:24:15] uh, you know, when, when Puya, when you say that, like, you don't want us to decide who might leave, uh, the reality from my perspective is I don't like it because it's not really us that decides

[00:24:27] it's production. It's how they decide to the players that provokes the response in the audience that then gets the result that they ultimately want. Audience voting is just a tool for producers to manipulate the game. Uh, it is their most overt way of doing so there's conspiracy

[00:24:49] theories about other ways that they do. So when this one is the most obvious and blatant and major one that is right in our face. Yeah. I mean, they're going to show us what they think they

[00:25:00] will elicit a response. You know, if we see this next episode, Quinn is dejected and crying and down and out and they're playing the hero music, then Quinn will probably get saved. Uh, but if

[00:25:11] they give us the Quinn is the villain, uh, he's cocky. Everybody's turning against him all the house once, you know, like then the audience is going to go wherever the edit shows us. And that's why you got the feedsters, you got the audience and then you, you know,

[00:25:23] the casual audience, and then you got the vote. And, uh, it's really going to come down to who ends up on the block and then what Quinn does in the meantime, between now and the eviction,

[00:25:32] he's got to start making sure that he's in good standing with a lot of these people, because like you said, Darren, it's going to be a close vote. And like the proof is in the pudding. Look at the first two weeks of the show where that first week

[00:25:45] Angela's made to look like the villain so much. So that Matt comes home to sympathy edits and, and bouquets of flour from the casuals. We've only seen the episodes and don't know better.

[00:25:56] And Angela's like this evil witch who like really like takes this poor young boy to task and calls him out and disses his mom and blah, blah, blah, blah. That was the power of the edit

[00:26:09] right there. Proof is in the pudding. Um, so which is why I think Wednesday's big episode and I, this is my other thing is I'm very curious to see what happens Wednesday, because

[00:26:19] I think they would like for the power to be a big part of their episode next week, the episodes next week, they want the deep, big HOH in the mix. I don't think they want Quinn to go,

[00:26:30] but then the question is if that's the case, who, how are you going to edit it? Or do you think, otherwise do you think they want it to be gone? Do you think more of a flush it?

[00:26:39] I don't know. Like, I don't think it's, it's super simple to predict what they want. Um, I think that like for them, what they really wanted to have happen for instance, with battle

[00:26:51] of the block is that they really wanted one of the HOHs to be dethroned and sent home. Um, and it would not surprise me if that, if they were like, you know, foaming at the mouth at

[00:27:05] the possibility of Quinn misplaying his power, this cocky little super fan, uh, and then gets voted out right before by America, right before he can even use the power. I think that's a very compelling storyline, especially given that everyone already knows about it now, it's probably

[00:27:24] not going to play out very well for television anyway. Uh, and this is probably the most dramatic way of now utilizing this power. Um, so I don't know. I think there's an argument to be

[00:27:34] made in the other direction for sure. Well, there's also four episodes next week. There's an extra Tuesday episode next week. Um, so I don't know what they're filling that one up with,

[00:27:43] but if they need content, I don't, I don't know. I don't know. We'll find out. Um, and, and I've, I've seen people ask a cool, you endorsing for, I don't do that. I don't do the, I'm endorsing

[00:27:52] anybody for anything. This isn't a, who do you want to give 25 grand to or 50 grand to because you like them? This is, I don't want to tamper in the game, but I will throw this out there.

[00:28:03] And this is not an endorsement. It's just fun commentary on the show. Comedically, I think it'd be funny if Joseph went up after the stuff he's been saying about how, how it couldn't be him

[00:28:14] because Joseph, my man, you're, you're a supposed super fan, right? You've watched RG for 10 years. You're, you're about this life in what world can you fathom the idea that someone who's not on the

[00:28:26] show, not in the edit of the show is going to get voted to put up. How is that even a thing? Yeah. This, a part of me was thinking, okay, Joseph can go. I was thinking a part of me was

[00:28:38] thinking Joseph can go because he's really not bringing, but Joseph has so much potential. You know, I just see that. Like if you let Joseph get too far, I think Joseph could do some real

[00:28:48] damage late in the game. And that's when the game gets the most boring. And so I'm trying to, I'm trying to maximize my television viewing pleasure. And I'm also like you, I kind of,

[00:28:59] it's something about when big brother players play poorly that you kind of want to see their poor playing produce a negative results, you know? So although I don't want Tucker to go,

[00:29:12] sir, you put yourself on the block. And then when people told you not to use the veto on yourself, you told them, no, I'm gonna do what I want to do. And then you accused them all of trying

[00:29:25] to backstab you when they told you to your face that you should not do this. I'm just, Julie Chen needs to take that little note, that little card, that little note card,

[00:29:32] and hop it on the side of the head again, because that's where I'm like, this, that's classic big brother for me. You doing the thing that everybody is at home is yelling. Why are you doing this?

[00:29:42] What is wrong with you? And then finding out what happens when you F around, you know? And so a part of me wants that chaos. A part of me would love to see something like a non-factor like Joseph go out

[00:29:55] but the Kenny, you know, you say you don't want to endorse anything. I am not. I've never said that once in my life last year. I told y'all who I was voting for all the time. Three, three, three,

[00:30:04] three, three. That was Taylor Taylor. I've always been straightforward. I am a single issue voter here. I'm anti Kenny. He can go. It's time. All right. Well, let's talk about some of the survey

[00:30:19] results. I sent out a survey where I asked the audience to rate the players, but also some other questions. One of which is the classic rank players, your favorite, your least favorite.

[00:30:34] Do you guys have a prediction of who is at the top of this ranking of your favorite from the cast? This is an interesting week for you to put that question out. She probably want to discuss

[00:30:47] together. You want to work on as a team on this one? Yeah, let's eliminate some people. Okay. We okay. Judging by just judging by what we've seen for who people want to go up on the block.

[00:30:57] We know it ain't Quinn. We know it ain't Quinn. It ain't Joseph and it ain't cam. And it ain't Joseph and it ain't cam. Okay. Cause people are ready to throw it into the wolves. I'd argue

[00:31:06] that it's probably not Kenny, you know, just going to throw that out there. Let's go out on a limb. Um, have you ever seen Robina on the show? Not on the episodes really, but on the feeds. Yeah.

[00:31:18] I still don't think she's on the list either or in the top. I think between or Chelsea and honestly, because of the gift of chaos he's given Tucker is kind of the three I'm looking at.

[00:31:33] Yeah. It's really hard not to see Tucker as a favorite because I mean, he is giving good feeds and we'd love good feeds. Uh, he's insane for putting himself in this position. It'd be

[00:31:45] really hard for me to say that Tucker is probably not the favorite. So that's where I would guess as well. All right. For this week. Makes sense. Tucker Puya. I mean, I'll, I said we're going

[00:31:58] to do it as a unit. So I backed my guy. I mean, unless you want to, unless you want to switch to somebody else. I mean, could you entertain Cedric? We know it ain't Leah. We know an alia.

[00:32:07] No Cedric. All right. Okay. Pause last chance. Angela. No. Okay. I think, I think we, I think we got to go with, I think we, yeah, I think we've peeked. Yeah. All right. Well,

[00:32:21] I can tell you last week the top spot went to T-Core. She barely edged out chemo this week. The top spot went to T-Core again. There we go. Larger margin this time. She is out there in

[00:32:37] front on her own. Oh, there's not a big gap between first and second. Yes. Who's in second? Well, can we unpack that real quick? Cause I think there's a couple of reasons why for one,

[00:32:50] obviously T-Core I've applauded her for this. Probably the best listener the house has seen in ages. Absolutely great ally listens to her allies, lets them vent talks game with them,

[00:33:03] all that good stuff. I think there's a little bit of heat on her allies though, for keeping her in the dark chemo. I'm looking at you for not sharing this Quinn information with her either. So I can

[00:33:17] definitely see that. Yeah. What I will tell you is T-Core is in front by a bigger margin. Her overall score is actually lower than it was last week. So basically everyone kind of like consolidated a bit more. She was, she was basically, she was more of a favorite,

[00:33:41] like more people chose her last week, but more people spread out this week. And, and she is now like solely at the top, but with a lower overall score. So it's like rises to the top. You see

[00:33:54] that? Are you saying that like first place there's this gap, but then the rest of the graph kind of looks chonky. Cause it's just more wider with everyone kind of like right next to each

[00:34:03] other. Yes. Last week there were like tiers top tier middle tier, middle bottom tier, bottom tier, bottom, bottom tier. Uh, whereas this, this week it's more like T-Core a bunch of people

[00:34:17] bottom tier. Yes. T-Core and her fans. Yes. T-Core. I like it. I like it. I like that. She can, she can still be, I think she has a good showing on the episodes. I do. I think that the

[00:34:29] way she handles the Angela situation probably like it doesn't hurt. And then also watching her in the house. She's a real good listener. She's actively playing the game. Uh, and she hasn't really pissed anybody off to this point. So I think she's very rootable.

[00:34:41] I'm going to go one more. Who is in second place? Last week it was chemo is what you told us, right? It was chemo. It ain't going to be chemo this week. I'm willing to think so. You think, you think it's a fall off for chemo?

[00:34:57] I'll tell you top five last week was the visionary Alliance that never came together. T-Core chemo, Quinn Tucker, Rubina. What did come together this week either? Um, okay. I mean, I don't know about

[00:35:11] you, man. I still think Chelsea or Tucker is a shout here. See, I let my Tucker in this go, but I was willing to go with Chelsea and maybe even Brooklyn, you know, they've seemed to remain

[00:35:22] above the fray a lot this week. So whoever you want to go with, I pushed the Tucker. You can, we can go with Chelsea if this, if that's what you want to do. I, you know what? We followed you

[00:35:31] with Tucker. Let's back me with Chelsea this time. Yeah. Chelsea is closer. Chelsea is in third. Okay. You touched on it. It's actually Brooklyn in second place. I think there's something to be said. Cause I did see quite a bit of reactions about T-Core

[00:35:53] being number one here again. I think there's something to be said about in a house of chaos and, and people offending each other and stepping on each other's necks that the inoffensive ones

[00:36:04] can be ranked higher because everyone else is doing a lot. And Brooklyn is someone who I applaud what I've been seeing from Brooklyn. I'm, I think Brooklyn is someone who coming into the season,

[00:36:14] a lot of us had our doubts. She mispronounces Taylor's last name and is associated with a house gets by the name of Aaron from BB 15. And I was like, I don't want anything to do

[00:36:24] with Brooklyn, but now I'm actually liking what I'm seeing with Brooklyn. So I'm not quite mad at this, to be honest. She's married and she's a mother and this, in this poll,

[00:36:33] this poll proves it, you know, and it reinforces that. And I think you're right. I think she's above the fray again. You know, you have Chelsea, you have T-Core, you have Brooklyn who are not

[00:36:41] really in all of this mess. The things that other people are doing that are off putting that would make you not vote for them. They're not doing those things. The Tucker, the anti Tucker people,

[00:36:49] they're not anti those people that Quinn has anti people. You know, we listed all these people that we could just count out from the beginning because they're in all the drama. And so by remaining above it, but still active, you know, still doing stuff in the game,

[00:37:02] I think it made a good showing for them. And that's why they're getting rewarded with these votes. Yeah, Brooklyn, it's been a slow climb from the bottom. First week she was fifth from last,

[00:37:11] only above Lisa McKenzie, Matt and Kenny. Then last week she rose to about the mid point right in the middle of the pack. And now this week, right on top in second place.

[00:37:25] I think a good example of sort of like what we talked about in the preseason where there was this hesitation, the skepticism of like, okay, she's, she has some kind of relationship with Aaron.

[00:37:37] That's concerning. But we'll see in the house what she's like. And I think so far to my knowledge, haven't really seen anything to indicate that that means anything. Right. There's been no bad behavior, no weird comments. So like I, me personally,

[00:37:59] I'm judging her by the actions that she's taking in the house. And so far there's no reason to feel like I think to feel like there's anything overtly wrong. And in fact, she's she's been very good

[00:38:13] in the game and is in a pretty decent position right now. So top three, T CORE, Brooklyn and Chelsea with chemo dropping down from second to fourth. Okay. Cedric with a little bit of a

[00:38:30] rise up to fifth place, Quinn dropping from third to six. Tucker dropping from fourth to seven. Big drop for Tucker. And then Rubina also dropping from fifth to eight. So there's been a

[00:38:55] similar to in the house so far, there's been a Tucker effect of if you are connected to Tucker, you are dropping in the popularity chart. Damn. Interesting. You know, showing his ass. I thought y'all like good feeds.

[00:39:11] Here's the thing. This is just popularity. I think the thing about villains, the thing about loving drama is that I think people love to hate people. So they might not want Tucker out

[00:39:24] necessarily, but they do want to maybe hate him or love him. So is either hate him or love him. So, Taryn, just so because I've not filled the form on myself on this season, remind me,

[00:39:34] is this a you have people rank their favorite from one through 14? Yes. Okay. Then 100%. This makes a lot more sense. It's not a pick your favorite. It's rank them because people who really like, say, Quinn are going to tank Tucker. People really like Tucker will take everyone kind

[00:39:50] of balance each other out, which is why, again, you get nobody's tanking T-Core and nobody's taking nobody's taking their same rankings or better. Right. So they're going to be in a good

[00:39:59] spot. That makes a lot more sense to me. Yeah. Yes. And you know what? I'm looking now. Tucker has Tucker and Angela have the largest spread of results for people that either love them or hate

[00:40:16] them. Yeah. Ones or tens. So, yes, it goes Tucker, Rubina, Joseph, Angela, Leah, Mackenzie, Cam and Kenny. Okay. Autumn for there. Yeah. Cam, you did this to yourself. Why all this?

[00:40:36] This is back and forth with Leah. God, let it go. Did you see the photo I put of him leaning by the fridge and staring into Leah's school yesterday? He down bad. He is. He is. And I

[00:40:49] think that's really what it comes down to for him. Like, nobody wants to see the schmoopie, but also like the like, oh, the whining and complaining to the arguing for hours about nothing that has to do with the game just because, you know, you really like the like,

[00:41:02] who cam stand up, stand up, brother, stand up. Yes. They're asking for the bottom four again. Bottom four is Leah, Mackenzie, Ham and Kenny in that order or the bottom Kenny being at the

[00:41:13] bottom. So with that in mind, I also ask the audience, who do you plan to vote for? Put on the block. Wednesday night, OK? This will be easier, I think, Chappelle. I have to say this

[00:41:30] is Quinn, right? Like for what I've been seeing, yeah, it's a pretty overwhelming leader. We got to keep in mind this is. I don't know, because I obviously this is our audience, but I'm also

[00:41:41] reading. I've been reading the chat throughout, so I'm trying not to let that impact me, but it's like this is this is the community that's voting for it. But I still think Quinn is number one.

[00:41:50] Then it could be. Cam, Joseph or Joseph Camp, that's kind of the top three to me. America did say she wanted Cam up and this is America's veto, so I would have to say the

[00:42:02] slop bump behind the paywall, the slop bump and the footage leaked, you know, it did leak. We keep the slop behind the paywall, but the footage leaked and there is footage of America

[00:42:14] saying Cam's boring on the show, so we should go. And so I can see people, the AmeriCorps stands lining up to vote against Cam. But Quinn has to be number one. I think Cam might be number two.

[00:42:24] Chappelle, I think someone in the chat. I don't know who that is. Is that a man? A man in the chat and very Tucker like style says, you know what you did, Chappelle? Count your days. Oh, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my.

[00:42:50] But I'm going from the chat. Well, in Quinn, yeah, let's lock in Quinn with 36 percent of the vote, the top vote getter. Cam. OK, AmeriCorps stands up. That's that America bump. Yeah, it's America's veto for a reason.

[00:43:13] Who can second in second place with 25 percent of the vote? Quinn. OK, see, we had it. We were on the right track. In third place with 17 percent of the vote, Joseph or Leah Joseph.

[00:43:28] We nailed it. There we go. Yeah, we had it. And then not too far behind with 14 percent of the vote. Leah. Yeah. OK. OK. The next person has two percent of the vote and it's Angela. And I

[00:43:41] that's because I forgot to. Yeah. Oh, my God. So there's a very, very clear top four. It's Cam, Quinn, Joseph and Leah. Yeah. Two percent is wild for Angela. Angela has been a lightning rod

[00:43:58] for drama and she has been saying some mean things. She's been bullying people in the house, yelling about people's eyes and all kinds of stuff coming up with whole monologues. And we like, no, she can't go yet. It's not time. My favorite thing about Angela is that

[00:44:13] these the TV viewers, the casuals have been counting her days, right? They know the America's view is going to come up when that comes up. We're going to put her up ourselves.

[00:44:23] And Angela's done everything to prevent that by volunteering to go up or being willing to go up. And she's just watered their plans every time. And come Wednesday, when they see that she makes it

[00:44:33] off the block once again and now they have to vote, oh, it's going to be so fun. Let me tell you. Yeah, that's the thing, too. It's it's really I'm so interested to see how they portray this.

[00:44:44] Like, do they portray in a way that makes the audience want this to happen? Or are they are they mad that this happened because they didn't want Angela off the block and they were like,

[00:44:55] who knows at this point? Yeah. Can she go back up now that she's already been vetoed? Yeah, it's done. Yeah. So that's another reason why people didn't vote for her. They're like, we can't get it this time. We can't. You know, you know how in Big Brother 15,

[00:45:08] when they went MVP, MVP to nominee and got all of them, if they put Angela's name on that texting list, she will get the most votes and whoever's second will be will be the one that goes up.

[00:45:19] That'd be a great way for them to do it. It would completely neutralize the casual vote. Yeah, that was so funny. All right. I asked the audience to rate the episodes this week. Last

[00:45:31] week, the audience gave the episodes a five point five out of ten. Now, for reference, in Big Brother 25 last season, week three got a four point six. Not a good week for episodes in Big Brother 25. This week, this season, the episodes

[00:45:51] got a six point one. OK, so this week up from last season. So the Wednesday, the veto, the eviction and then Sunday's episode are being a part of this. I think he I think normally when

[00:46:04] you're doing the stock watch ratings, you're probably mostly thinking of eviction and Sunday. Technically, you are. You are also grading the veto episode. So this week, this coming veto episode will be created in the next week's stock watch. But it is usually

[00:46:17] the furthest from I thought was two good episodes. Liana and I watched the Sunday episode on delay because we were not available to watch Sunday night and. Far be it for me to say, but the love triangle edit that was funny to me,

[00:46:33] the saxophone, I had a good time with it. It was good. I enjoyed it. I enjoyed it. What's going on last, last year, week three, they got them on four. Was this this must have

[00:46:43] been where high some was getting voted out, right? It had to be because that's the only way I could see people being like, what are we watching? What's really happening right here? It's got to

[00:46:52] be the highest. Yes. Week three was Felicia's HOA train. They were making out high. Some it was right before the really good high some. So yeah, there was a lot of hype around it.

[00:47:05] Yeah, there was a lot going on in the house and none of it was being represented in the episodes is he was not a person in the episodes. And so I think it was still a mistake. They were spending

[00:47:16] like half of the episode on comp comps every episode. So it was like very bad episodes. For reference, last season, the episodes were 4.6 and week three, the feeds in 8.1. So exactly disparity. Yeah. This week, this season, the feeds 7.9. So not quite the 8.1 of last season,

[00:47:39] but very good, very impressive, especially compared to last week, where the feeds got a 4.7. So a big boost from last week into this week for the feeds, which makes sense because they were

[00:47:52] on. Well, I feel like the whole cursed week three of it all that we've been getting a trend of now like that always delivers has been delivering good feeds. I'm like 24 would have probably delivered good feeds there as well. What happened week three of twenty three?

[00:48:10] That would have been was that when Christian. No, Frenchie goes week two. Was that the Brent Champagne week? Oh, yeah. You're right. You're right. Yeah. Because it was it was at first it was

[00:48:25] Highland and then it was Xavier. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. Waiting for Brent to go home that week was great for me. You know, I mean, I if I if you give me a second, I can give you what

[00:48:40] the ratings were from BB. Oh, we would love that. Oh, please do. Because I remember patiently waiting on Brent to realize that he had just made a massive error. You know,

[00:48:51] yeah, we three is the new gold standard to me like this every year. Now I'm going to be waiting for a bated breath for week three and what it's going to offer us. OK, so go ahead.

[00:49:02] Yes. Brother, twenty three. First of all, the audience's favorite player was Tiffany, followed by Derek X. The episodes were a seven point oh and the fees were seven point four. Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. I remember those days, man.

[00:49:24] OK, OK. Now do be twenty two. No, no. I'm going to be crying at home. Yeah, I called BB twenty two big brother all stars. So it's hard to find. We also did the legacy watch that season. So it was like,

[00:49:49] here we go. All stars player ratings week two for twenty two. Let's see. Week three. Oh, who's the favorite? Oh, that was with the legacy. There's a weird season. Six point five episodes. OK, highest of all of them, except for twenty three and seven point two feet.

[00:50:16] We were starving, Terran. We had nothing going on. Nothing. Yeah, nothing. OK, isn't Janelle getting voted out week three? We were going through. We had. And OK, so rate the season as a whole so far. My tabs are a little messy now,

[00:50:38] so I'm going to have to quickly double check. This was BB twenty three. We're going to close that one. OK. Last week, the season as a whole was given a six point seven this week. It's back up to a

[00:50:52] seven point one. Compare that to the seven point seven of last season. OK, solid. This is solid. You know, solidly. We're talking about six. That's normal. You know, we see the product. Look at the material. You can be the judge of it. Six point six.

[00:51:11] Well, that was big brother. Good job, Julie. So I asked the audience also to rate Cedric's HOA train. Last week, Chelsea got a five point seven. This week, Cedric got a five point oh. OK, right smack dab in the middle, a little fancy, fancy for me, but OK.

[00:51:34] Sure. Yeah, I feel like a little under five probably. Well, I don't want you to look through more data, so I won't ask. You're already I'm already going to Big Brother 24. We need to know BB twenty four.

[00:51:50] Big Brother 24, the episodes were a five point two. The feeds nine point oh delicious. Well, I mean, we started with what feeds it like one point three probably with how this was the leftovers. Exactly. This was a very monumental moment for us. The best day of my life.

[00:52:14] All right. I asked the audience to rate the arena twist, and I've been tracking this all season long because it's basically like first impressions. What were they? The first impressions of the arena twist of four point seven.

[00:52:29] Uh, then in week two, six point two, they had gone up this week. Six point. Oh. So a little lower, a little bit low. I think if this survey had gone out a couple of days ago,

[00:52:44] this would have been way lower because people were really down on the twist. They felt like it was really encouraging all this volunteering, which may or may not be true. I also asked about the upgrade downgrade twist, meaning the powers in play.

[00:52:58] Initially, the first impressions four point five. Last week of four point eight, it had gone a little bit up this week. Four point nine. Growing. I imagine the the AI of it all, the the the the challenge and stuff included with

[00:53:17] the third nominee. I think it's cool when you're the people you're rooting for are winning. Right. And when you think it's equitable, I think that first week where we see, oh, you know, they go into the competition and chemo, chemo beats somebody, you know,

[00:53:29] we're like, oh, chemo one. OK. And we see the challenge. We're like, oh, that was fair. You know, that looked like everybody could do it. But now it looks like we're starting to get back to

[00:53:36] that old big brother stuff. And I think if the fans start looking at it and saying these ain't equitable no more, you're just picking a third nominee to go up there and win some physical challenge. I think it's going to start to skew in a downward trajectory.

[00:53:47] And so I'd be interested to watch this number moving forward if they keep doing this. I mean, but we don't have any reason to believe they're going to do this much longer. I mean, we're

[00:53:54] almost a jury, right? I probably one more is my guess. Right. Typically in fours, most things will end here. I'll tell you the vibe I get from these ratings for the upgrade downgrade.

[00:54:06] I think that in general, the audience doesn't like it, but it hasn't really failed us yet. Right. You know what I mean? Like, it's it's kind of giving this week. And so we're like, fine,

[00:54:20] you're doing OK, but like, you're still not a doctor, son. So, you know what I mean? Like, you're still not making me proud. Yeah. When the competition is like, be the best cop out

[00:54:34] of the three nominees and we find out that, you know, Kenny won. That's when we're like, oh, but it's. And and also not for nothing, I think depending on who wins the H.O.H. next week,

[00:54:45] because obviously assuming that Quinn will take over if Angela wins H.O.H. and Quinn takes it over, expect some people to be upset about it. But if like if if Italian sausage sweet Kenny K

[00:55:01] is still there and wins it and Quinn takes it over, those those those ratings go up. So I think depending on that, that could impact something next week. Yes. Well, speaking of ask the audience, who do you want to be evicted this week?

[00:55:16] And with 72 percent of the vote, make some noise. Sweet Kenny K. Yeah. Not enough, but we'll take it. Kenny's resistance to play the game and his insistence on quitting is why I want him out of the house. Now, if Kenny, for some reason, stays in this game,

[00:55:39] I only want him in the house. He's going to have a showmance with Angela. If there's no showmance, I don't want it. Kenny, you and your sweet sausage can go unless you really up on this show. I'm pushing it. I'm pushing the showmance.

[00:55:54] There are people, I think, that genuinely believe it could happen. It's not because again, it can have funny, but it's not. No, it actually is funny and will happen. Thank you. Thank you. Let them dream, Terran. Let them dream. Let them fantasize.

[00:56:07] Can you understand the mess? Do you? Y'all don't see what we got in front of us. This man who got these pineapples and this woman with a hall pass and they're both unhinged. And she's he's

[00:56:18] trying to quit the game. She's begging him not to go cinema, cinema, cinema. Take my money. This is a script for a movie. Yeah. A movie that I want to see. If he can't go, send Angela out

[00:56:28] next because I didn't. I'm a follow them on Tick-Tock and find out what happens. I'm we following up on this. This is this is a shit. I want to see. All right. Well, second place with 14 percent of the vote, Tucker,

[00:56:40] Tucker, they'd like to see Tucker leave 14 percent and then with 10 percent of the vote, Quinn. And then I then I put other and there's three percent of the other. What I found interesting because they got their name. What I found interesting is that

[00:56:55] I there is there are 25 percent of the audience that want that will that plan to vote for Quinn to be nominated. But only 10 percent of them want Quinn to actually be evicted, which to me reads you are the kind of person

[00:57:10] that would volunteer for the block. They play with fire. They are. You really are. You're putting up somebody who is just so, so tempting to vote out and be like,

[00:57:21] but I need to stay because I need the message. It's a thin line. It's a tightrope at this point I want both. Right. You want to is it why can't I order off both menus? You want maximum chaos.

[00:57:30] You want Quinn to go up, but you also don't want him to leave. You still want Kenny to leave. But you're like, but I want to see it all. And one is worth for some of this percentage.

[00:57:41] One is worth the risk for the other. It's kind of the vibe. Yeah. Yeah. What does do this? 10,000 the Deutsche Unternehmen, can't find a business. All right. That is the survey. Are we ready? Let's do it. Let's do it. Oh, yeah.

[00:58:52] The portion of the podcast where we rate the players from one to 10 based on how well we think they're doing in the game. The criteria can be whatever you want. It could be who is

[00:59:05] a man's favorite. It could be pause. Who snitched? How did a man know that I did the amount thing? I know he didn't start this podcast from beginning. Which one you all told on me? Huh? Yeah. I see y'all are doing a lot of work. Totally. Yeah.

[00:59:19] I see your chat. It's a twitch chat. That's who it is. The YouTube chat would do. They want you to do chaos, but then they'll write you out. See? I did see chemo's name in the chat earlier.

[00:59:35] OK, it's starting to make sense now. All right. All right. I knew I couldn't trust y'all. That's all right. See if I be a man next time. All right. OK, let's let's talk about these players. We will start with Angela.

[00:59:54] Angela, Angela, Angela, she is safe another week. Safe from the block. Safe from America. And who's looking at Angela as a target anytime soon at this point? Quinn no longer has any real

[01:00:11] reason to target her because she no longer is a threat to his game beyond the threat of her winning a competition, which they all think she's basically incapable of, despite the fact that she

[01:00:22] has won a competition. And so I really do feel like she has some legs in the game. Last week, I gave her a one because she was doing some silly things and she's still doing some silly things. But at least now she will be continuing to do silly

[01:00:43] things for many weeks to come, probably. So there's really not much more for me to say on that. It's not like I think she has a great chance to win this game, but I do think she has a not

[01:00:54] terrible chance of getting like two jury votes. And so for that reason, I'm going to give Angela a three this week. Yeah, I think the person who benefited the most from the events of the house this week is probably

[01:01:13] an Angela who kind of had been left sentenced to being on the block until her inevitable departure so much so that before the whole blow up the night before, we saw a lot of the house basically

[01:01:28] come to the consensus of, all right, so Kenny this week and then we kick Angel out. We have a two week safety. We just get ourselves further. We can all agree on this. That's easy

[01:01:36] enough now with all the outbursts and all the yelling. I could see this going in many different ways. Listen, let's be clear. Angela could still end up on that block and could still be a you

[01:01:47] know what? Whatever. I'll just get rid of her. It could still happen. But it's you can't argue against the fact that she's in a better spot this week than she was last week.

[01:01:57] So I think a three is valid, Taryn. I think a three is valid. I and because I would like to you know what? I'm going to drop a giver to she improved. She benefited from that last week.

[01:02:17] Let's see where she goes next week. Work for that three from me. Hmm. Listen, I love Angela as much as the next person, but she ain't doing nothing to keep herself in this game. She's actively trying to play her way out of the game. Every time we look

[01:02:33] at her, she is trying to play her way out of the game and she's not. She just happens to be overshadowed by all of the craziness that's going on with the Tucker, the Quinn, the powers,

[01:02:42] all that kind of stuff. I have no faith in her to win the game. If she were to win it, I would be very shocked and be very happy for her, honestly, because if you can pull yourself

[01:02:51] out of this hyper hole, then go for it. But I don't have any faith in Angela right now. I think that eventually people will wake up and see that like, OK, she's still here. We need to

[01:03:00] get her or she is a losing finalist that nobody is worried about ever at any point ever again in the game if she makes it past the you know into the jury phase. I think Angela's win condition is

[01:03:10] to make every episode about her and she's not doing it. She's not doing it right now. We're not talking about Angela. And so because of that, I can't give her a three. I have to give her a

[01:03:18] two because she's failing. She's not doing she's not being the great TV that she's supposed to be. She's not getting a lot of fights. She's not controlling the game. She's not in a dominant

[01:03:25] position. What are you doing? She's just not on the block. She's getting the two for me. You're just mad she's not on a showman's with Kenny. Be honest. Yes, that's who that's who

[01:03:32] added to the list. I might drop it down to one of you said part of you. Right, right. Drop it out one more time for me. Do it. No joking. She's never gonna get like I did. I love you again. What are we doing here? You know,

[01:03:49] I think I want her to embrace either being a villain when Lisa was in the house. We saw the best Angela we've had so far. She had an adversary that she could go head to head with

[01:03:58] when Matt was in how she did it. Now she's all neutered and just kind of like, you know, no one's paying any attention to her. I need her to grasp power again so I can give her some type

[01:04:06] of credit. But right now, she's just lucky they ain't talking about her. And that's all there is to it. All right, well, the audience is more with me. They gave her a three full audience.

[01:04:19] All right, Booyah. How do you feel about Brooklyn? Like I said, I didn't want to spoil it. I feel very good about Brooklyn. I think that Brooklyn is playing a very level headed game. I like the

[01:04:32] way she's socializing and kind of finding her footing in this game, talking to people, making those connections. I think one of the strongest parts of Brooklyn's game is that she is part of

[01:04:43] the Pentagon, which as of right now, the members still very much seem to be invested in and trying to keep it afloat. Joseph not loving that she's part of the collective was hilarious this week.

[01:04:55] So I like that. But I still I like what she's doing. I feel like she's picked up little pieces here and there. She's progressed her game. Obviously, one of the big anti Brooklyn people

[01:05:05] has been Kenny, who has basically put her as the figurehead for a woman's alliance. And I love how she confronted him yesterday. I thought that was very nicely done. It wasn't over the top. It

[01:05:18] wasn't a full blown fight. It just kind of was like, you know what, Kenny, you're not going to just get away with doing this. And what's what happened next? What's Kenny doing? Send me home.

[01:05:27] Let get rid of me. So I love all that. I see that y'all gave her a six last week. I think based on everything that happened this week, I would like to give her a seven. I still think there might be

[01:05:37] a couple of people looking at her moving forward, but I do like her longevity for this game. And I guess I didn't say what my rubric was for this. We are in week three. I'm looking a lot at

[01:05:49] longevity for making it to the jury and when equity kind of goes into that as well. But if you're set up for the next couple of weeks, that's that's a thumbs up for me. I like that.

[01:05:59] Hmm. I don't know. I don't know. I'm torn between like I want to give her the benefit of the doubt. You know, I think a lot of the chaos in this house like for like like I was saying against

[01:06:10] about Angela is that it's happening and just being not in a part of it is making you look better as a player but also I think the other players are going to perceive that too. You know, they're

[01:06:18] going to also see that like hey, Brooklyn is somebody I can probably work with because she's not a crazy person like everybody else and so that's why I'm really concerned about you know, maybe giving her really high marks because I'm like what but you know, what if

[01:06:31] it's just not her turn yet? You know, like what if they're going to look at her and say all right, we can get Brooklyn. She is the head of this pseudo women's alliance. She is in the Pentagon

[01:06:40] but it's a very fragile Alliance right now. I mean two of the two of the girlies are fighting, you know, I'm saying like it's tough and so I really don't know. I think I was I was leaning

[01:06:50] toward six, but I think Puyo makes a good point. In my mind Kenny's going home and that's really good for her. So I'll probably I'll probably go with Puyo on this one and give her a seven,

[01:06:59] but it was really close to being a six. All right. Well, the audience agrees with both of you. The audience also gave Brooklyn a seven and I'm inclined to agree. I feel like the season so far

[01:07:12] has been like who is currently in the best position even though they didn't really put themselves there and that person has been receiving sevens and right this week that one of those people is Brooklyn. And so I'm going to agree and give Brooklyn the seven,

[01:07:31] but I also do agree with you Chappelle. I'm still not sold that she knows how to how to solidify this and lock this position in. I think that she has benefited from external forces and if those forces

[01:07:48] continue to work that could slip away at some point because she's not active enough at like locking the stuff that she needs to lock in. However, as the game progresses things start

[01:08:01] to get more and more solid even if people aren't solidifying them themselves. So it could also be a game of musical chairs to just be like who is in the best position when the game it's solid enough

[01:08:13] that it's hard to move them out of that position. And that could be this week, though it does still feel like things are pretty hectic. But she is currently in the spot to

[01:08:23] move into the place that she needs to be as things continue to shift. So primarily I'm concerned about the fact that if Kenny stays there's obviously some some issue there. However, despite that

[01:08:40] she basically has the option of any group she wants depending on which group moves into power next week. So it's a pretty good spot. We'll just have to see where she moves from here. Chappelle, how do you feel about Cam?

[01:08:55] You know what Cam he you know I feel like Cam strikes me as one of those like classic the classic Big Brother trope of if you just come in you know you don't make too many waves you lay

[01:09:07] under the radar you don't win too many you win a competition here there just to show that you can but also you just kind of chill and talk about jury and then you wake up and start doing stuff.

[01:09:15] Cam is in a great spot to do something like that. No one really really wants Cam out he's in a good alliance but he's not doing anything and actually I think he's making things work for himself this

[01:09:27] beef with Leah is just annoying to watch on the feeds but I have to imagine it's probably annoying to watch in real time because it's like hey get your head in the game you know.

[01:09:36] So for me he's not actually putting himself in a awful spot I don't think like I would I don't think I would like be like concerned about him going next week but at the same time

[01:09:46] I also can't see him doing anything to win the game if he had like if he was a competition threat or he had one of these powers then I'd say all right cool yeah I can see him taking this

[01:09:54] and running with it I just don't see where he has anywhere to go and so I saw that y'all gave him fours and fives next week I'm probably inclined to give him like a five as well you know

[01:10:04] I don't see anything negative to where I'm like all right you're in danger bro but I'm also kind of like eh he's fine I don't have any real issue with Cam.

[01:10:13] Well the audience has a bit more of an issue with Cam than you do because they gave him a four this week. I gave Cam a four last week and honestly I'm tempted to drop it even lower

[01:10:26] I won't because there's a lot uh there's way more fish to fry in this house than Cam right now but I do not think he's helping himself so I'm gonna give him the four uh I just feel like it was

[01:10:37] wild to me after watching the events of yesterday play out that at the end of the day Chelsea and Brooklyn and a few other people were still mostly talking about how Cam is the biggest liability in

[01:10:54] the house even Cedric was talking about how Cam was a liability and I was like Quinn is right there he just had the entire house blow up because of him uh and Cam is still the biggest problem in

[01:11:07] the pentagon like this is an issue for him and he's and he's doing it to himself spending all day talking with Lia. Lia is doing nothing for his game right now it's like you the thing is you

[01:11:18] either have to go for it or leave it on the table because this in-between thing where they're not actually in a showmance but everyone perceives them to be in a showmance but they're not actually

[01:11:29] sharing information properly and they're spending a ton of time together but not in a productive way it's just a really bad look and it's really bad play uh and if he wasn't in such a like if he

[01:11:41] wasn't surrounded by so many structures I'd say he was in deep trouble um but uh but he is so it's just the four. Yeah it's it's the showmance without benefits and I don't mean intimate benefits

[01:11:55] I mean the game benefits like there's no game benefits that come from everyone's perception of them so I 100% agree with you there uh Taryn here's my issue with Cam and I think I actually

[01:12:04] I won't tell you what number yet my issue with Cam is that Cam comes into the house super charismatic guy has the magnetic smile has the athletic build is legitimately someone that you look at and it screams winning contender because he's got all the makeup of someone

[01:12:20] that's going to be a good player and the charisma gets him in all the alliances which we have seen and it served him well the first couple of weeks but and then to your point Chappelle he is and we

[01:12:29] talked about this he is in the pentagon he is in the collective he is in the three c's um he's someone that other people from outside of that alliance want to work with he's in a should be

[01:12:38] in a better spot but despite all of that he's shooting himself in the foot by being seen as a liability in the three c's by being seen as a liability in the pentagon by being seen as a

[01:12:49] liability in the collective and now with the blow up yesterday being seen as potentially being in a rough patch with with the little makeshift what were they called were they the ball players was it

[01:12:59] the ball players the ball boys okay I like ball boys we'll go with that I just feel like don't name your your your alliance ball anything ball smashers that was the last one everybody else

[01:13:14] let it go we had one good one that and don't put a number in the name I don't need that yeah those are two rules two rules here in the book the RJPB brother book and he made such a he

[01:13:24] made such a quintessential mistake in my eyes when and you know we you see this in the outside world too when you are in a relationship and you talk smack about your partner like you know what they're

[01:13:37] not for me forget them it's over and your friends are like yeah forget them you're right live your life find your you know get into your new new stage of your life and then you go back to them

[01:13:47] and your friends are like well we just spent like two days talking smack with you that is a problem um he did all that and now he's googly eyes again with Leah who wants nothing to do with him in that

[01:13:58] in that sense so I think he he's someone who should be just by default riding the wave of a six rating and he's only shooting himself in the foot I'm giving him the three that Terran was hesitant

[01:14:10] we give him the three all right there you go uh okay let's then move on to Cedric Cedric last week got a six from the audience but this week matching the rating they gave to his HOH they

[01:14:27] gave him a five um and you know I'm actually I was actually kind of torn on Cedric because in many ways I was impressed by him this week um I thought that the decision he made with Quinn

[01:14:42] was the like very like mature strategic decision uh to not get swept up in Tucker's plan that I thought was way too risky for him it still did put him in a rough spot though um and because

[01:14:58] he didn't like properly sit Tucker down which I think might have helped um he and maybe it wouldn't have because we know Tucker loves a grudge uh he ends up getting a lot of heat for this but

[01:15:10] then he gets heat in it for it in a way where it's really only from Tucker and he gets a lot of sympathy and he does get a lot of I think gratitude and so I don't think he's in a terrible

[01:15:21] spot but then I do have to consider the distinct possibility that like there is a nightmare scenario that's fairly realistic for Cedric this week and that nightmare scenario is Quinn gets nominated by America and T-Core and Kimo flip and then all of a sudden the house is

[01:15:44] some weird amount of T-Core, Kimo, Rubina, Tucker, Kenny, Angela, MJ, Leah all against him with like Brooklyn and Chelsea being like yeah rah rah um that would be such a nightmare for

[01:16:01] Cedric he needs the Quinn power next week to recover from this he needs Tucker gone and then he's back to smooth sailing but until that happens there is a lot of danger happening here even if

[01:16:13] like Quinn stays and then Tucker manages to win a competition next week and sticks around that's still rough for him he needs to get over this Tucker bump and that's going to be tough to do

[01:16:27] so I do have to agree with the audience ultimately that it balances out to a round of five even though I really do like a lot of the things that he did this week he was not perfect by any means

[01:16:39] I think he had a rough early HOA train I think that he made some mistakes with how he handled the Tucker situation but overall I saw a lot more from him this week that gives me

[01:16:49] um promise for future potential. Booyah, what do you think? I'm torn with Cedric because on one hand I think he was gifted what should have been the easiest HOH week of the season so far

[01:17:07] with two volunteers and ultimately three volunteers the issue is that he so badly did not want to make the executive decision on the third nominee that he goes with this offer from Tucker which is kind

[01:17:22] of like doing a deal with the devil because we saw we've seen how vocal Tucker is and how controlling he can be despite having none of the power and all of the mouth um and yeah I just want

[01:17:34] to interject briefly to say I think that if he had been more decisive in the first part of the week I don't know that Tucker gets this angry and I don't know that he feels like he can hit that hard

[01:17:46] because Cedric had a plan and he could have been like Tucker I get what you're saying but I have an idea of what I want because he was so wishy-washy Tucker felt like he could walk all over him and

[01:17:56] that put him in the spot he's in. Yeah he and I 100% agree with that because he essentially left there an opening for Tucker to try and fill the void in for him and then he backed it you know as

[01:18:07] much as he didn't do it as much as he maybe realized that sees the writing on the wall that yeah no this shouldn't happen for me doesn't benefit me he gave them the confidence that it

[01:18:16] was happening all the way until it wasn't and that's caused him to be in a worse spot than I think where he was last week um and I think this you know the reality is I think Quinn could go up

[01:18:27] on the block and Quinn could go home and then a Tucker staying there and Kenny staying there that could be bad for him I think Tucker is someone who you know it's very fast I cannot

[01:18:38] wait to talk about him later but he's someone who despite everything that he's been involved with yesterday still has a lot of people that like him and are not are like yeah we should get

[01:18:47] him out but maybe not this week if we can help ourselves kind of so I think that for Cedric you know I think a five is fair um and I think maybe people around him doing worse kind of keeps

[01:19:01] him in the same spot if that makes sense uh so maybe I kind of want to go for though but you know what I saw I saw Melissa in the chat I'm gonna pull a Melissa classic Chappelle you

[01:19:12] go first I'm gonna think about my pick some more okay well from my point of view I think Cedric like you said he had this he fumbled it um but my biggest issue with Cedric is that he doesn't know

[01:19:25] what he's doing in the game and I think that when you have forces like Tucker who are so just pushy about what they want who are so aggressive about getting their point across when it comes to what

[01:19:34] they want in the game he folds you know he really shouldn't have entertained the Tucker conversation let me go up on the block and then I'm gonna do this and then we're gonna backdoor like that was

[01:19:42] wild and then afterwards he talks to other people they're like uh you you want to do that that's what you that's what you this is the plan did you want to do and then he realizes you know what you're

[01:19:51] right you know let me go ahead and let me clean this up and so I think he's easily swayed and I think that I for me if I'm expecting him to win the game he's gonna have to take some hard stances

[01:20:00] moving forward he's gonna have to really put his foot down and say this is what I want this was best for my game and I know that it's best for my game despite not having the knowledge of all

[01:20:09] the past seasons of big brother like because if you let somebody like like um Quinn or like Joseph even get in Cedric's ear which Joseph has not been able to do that effectively yet but if you let

[01:20:19] that happen you know we see Tucker pretty much just hijacked this week from him uh and Quinn like you said to Aaron going home is a disaster for uh for Cedric it puts him in a really bad spot

[01:20:29] um whereas this could have been avoided and so uh I like that at the beginning of the week like he had me in the first half I'm not gonna lie to you we got people volunteering basically to go home

[01:20:38] that's perfect get rid of them but now you've drawn a hard line in the sand against you and Tucker it's in my opinion the moment you betrayed Tucker by going back and telling everybody about uh what

[01:20:48] he said about trying to backdoor Quinn you have to get him out or this is a failure of an HOH because with Quinn leaving if Quinn leaves then now you don't even get that added buffer of Quinn

[01:20:57] can just take the power and save you next week so it's really hard for me to reward him with a six but also he ain't going home it wasn't it wasn't like he is definitely going home next week

[01:21:10] so I can't give him the four I have to do the fence again it's five and I'll give him the four because my my points don't matter **Laughter** All right then Wow a five!

[01:21:26] It's a five for Cedric let's talk about Chelsea uh and I'll be honest I really wanted to talk about Chelsea when I was talking about Brooklyn because I feel pretty similarly about them for different reasons but they're in very similar positions um Chelsea like Brooklyn

[01:21:45] is in a position where no matter what happens she has outs she has this thing with MJ and Leah she has obviously the pentagon the three C's she's got uh the collective um and she's got

[01:22:00] no heat on her right now I do think that last week was a missed opportunity for her but uh this week is has presented her with more opportunity uh that she could theoretically

[01:22:12] use again uh moving forward but similar to Brooklyn I feel like because I know that she didn't capitalize on opportunity last time I'm concerned that she won't this time either and that her current position is also reliant on the current circumstances uh and that if those

[01:22:28] circumstances change that might mean she slips out of this position again so for now uh like Brooklyn I'm going to give Chelsea a seven I do think that Chelsea and Brooklyn are the two

[01:22:39] players to watch this week um and the most likely to land in a good spot next week but uh we will have to wait and see yeah what do you think I think a seven is a very good number here because

[01:22:52] you know for a lot of the points that we gave Brooklyn Chelsea is in a very similar spot where she has all of the same alliances that we've highlighted right the the pentagon the collective

[01:23:03] she's also part of the three c's but also I feel like she made uh I know that her hoh last week kind of was like they didn't lock anything down down but I think she did she's done a very good

[01:23:14] job with McKenzie um from that last week I think that was a really good shot for her I feel like she is someone who no one leaves the combo feeling iffy about her which I love I also personally

[01:23:26] she has the best cam talks of the house for me I enjoy her cam talks the most which y'all know me I do love the when they talk to us on the feet so I like that um but I can't give her higher than

[01:23:38] a seven I think seven is the ceiling for me this week um so seven is where I'll also land yeah I mean that's fair the the gameplay has been so wild over these last few weeks we haven't

[01:23:50] really seen a lot of just like oh this is still a big brother play from any one person so seven is probably as high as I'm going to go for anybody in the house uh and so and Chelsea's in a great

[01:23:59] position I can't put her any lower than Brooklyn so yeah I'm going with seven as well um because she's she had she put herself in this position but again the house got wild and she was able to

[01:24:09] stay out of it and I have to give her credit for that so she's much higher than some of the other people we've talked about for sure all right well the audience agrees as well they also gave

[01:24:18] Chelsea a seven so it's gonna be straight sevens once again uh Pooja tell me about Joseph oh okay uh hello uh Joseph and and I'm talking to you directly because I know you're gonna watch this

[01:24:32] I know you're watching this whenever the season's your season is over yo so Joseph is a fascinating person to me because in a weird way because initially he seemed very much like he had his

[01:24:45] hand in the cookie jar he had some control he was kind of pulling a tucker in a way he kind of did this this week with the collective meeting where he kind of just runs it he's very vocal in what

[01:24:56] he wants to do he has objectives that he wants as he play out but I think Joseph shot himself in the foot in that in the in between week where he kind of has come off looking weak and frail

[01:25:06] and kind of doesn't have anything that anyone's going to put a lot of weight on but also Joseph currently has the best and I mean the best information on where a lot of the house lies

[01:25:19] because and then correct me if I'm wrong Taryn to this point the only person that knows the Pentagon exists outside of the Pentagon thanks to one Quinn well technically T-Core and Kimo know about it

[01:25:32] that's true but I don't know if they remember because bless them a lot has happened they never talk about it and they talked about creating a new alliance this week that included members of

[01:25:44] the Pentagon and they didn't discuss the folly in that so like I'm just honestly I'm so lost on where their heads are at game wise but like I genuinely think they might not remember that's entirely

[01:25:57] possible I think Joseph is another person that kind of benefited from the events of this week I think a restructuring could allow him to maybe find himself in a better spot or even if there's

[01:26:09] quote-unquote sides I just don't see Joseph being the main target for anybody he could certainly be casualty of war in like oh he was like the backup backup and that's the one person left so he could

[01:26:21] go so I don't hate his longevity at the moment I think he could both he's literally for me like a easy five because he could both improve from here on out or further hurt his game and revert back to

[01:26:36] week two from here on out so I could see it going either way I'll give him five I could have gone four to be honest but five I think is the fair number you don't have to give him a four because

[01:26:46] I got it listen I think I see I said this earlier I see so much potential in Joseph I know he knows what he needs to be doing he's just ineffective and I think that if you let him get far enough

[01:26:58] in the game yeah he's gonna take it and he's gonna run with it and they're gonna that'd be a massive mistake but I also think that if I'm somebody who maybe I don't want to get blood on

[01:27:05] my hands why not put up Joseph who's gonna be mad who's really gonna fight you about saving Joseph in the house I don't think he's done enough to where people feel like they gotta stick their

[01:27:13] neck out on the line for him you know I think his allies have better allies I think he's the one who is hoping that people will just save him and I I don't like that I want him to have a little bit

[01:27:22] more agency to where he's making decisions I want him to win win an HOH and do something with it and try try to solidify something to where you feel like okay I got they back and they got my

[01:27:32] back so yeah he's the one who's giving me the four uh the four vibes this week I can't I want better for him I'm really rooting for Joseph I just need I need to see some action and I need

[01:27:43] to see it stick you know I don't want people to think like you said he's the backup target or the backup to the backup but I don't think at any point is anybody gonna be saying no it can't be Joseph

[01:27:52] and so for me that's where I would have to draw the line at the four okay well the audience did give Joseph five okay respectable um and I'm honestly kind of torn uh I'm torn between two

[01:28:09] numbers um and that's because for as delusional as Joseph can be he started this week with the as the person who maybe knew the least about the house dynamic I think he leaves this week

[01:28:22] perhaps knowing the most about the house dynamics or at least close to the most about the dynamics more so than even players like Brooklyn and Chelsea right now uh the issue is he doesn't have the positioning of Brooklyn and Chelsea he doesn't have the relationships of

[01:28:37] Brooklyn and Chelsea and his ship is very much tied to uh to Quinn and Cedric at the moment now he could theoretically jump back over to Tucker uh if for some reason Quinn went home this week

[01:28:51] but the problem is that like if he votes to keep Quinn that's gonna be hard he probably would if he thinks those are where the numbers are um and so his his his spot is kind of tenuous but he's

[01:29:05] not a he's not a threat to anyone right now he's not a target for anyone right now and he's gathered a lot of information and I think honestly most importantly he's one of the few players that's

[01:29:16] willing to just be active and make any kind of moves and if I had rated him earlier in the week I probably would have given him a six for that reason I was feeling while you know it was fun

[01:29:29] dogging on him but like I was actually feeling like Joseph is the one who's actually making some waves here the problem is the problem is that Tucker who was one of his plans and one of his

[01:29:44] pieces on the board just went completely wild blew up that option for him left him with much fewer options and forced more of the house to be more active which meant that he didn't have

[01:29:59] the advantage that he did before so I do have to drop back down to a five but I was very close to giving Joseph a six this week yeah it's it is very ironic and funny to think of though every

[01:30:12] time he's gotten into a duo with somebody that person has blown his game has suffered as a result we had Matt, Angela, Tucker, Quinn to a degree like the man can't pick a a duo to ride with

[01:30:27] to save his life it's been it's been kind of tough but I again I think that having all this information is good information after all is currency and as long as he doesn't use it now

[01:30:38] and figures out how to use it I think it can yield some good results for him down the line here I would say similar to Cedric this week I saw things in Joseph that make me feel like okay

[01:30:50] week one Joseph that we were kind of high on isn't gone completely there's still promise here he just has some work to do to get back into a place where he can actually do things with that

[01:31:01] promise so also he is he not the only person that's been doing his own mental stock watch in the house and we found out this week what does he have himself ranked on his stock we only heard

[01:31:12] what he gave Quinn we did not hear what he gave himself yeah you got to find out yeah we need to know hey listen maybe we'll hear him say it because this week wow another five another five

[01:31:26] uh all right uh Chappelle talk to me about Cedric or sorry talk to me about Kenny that's it it's a one it's a one man it's a one I don't know what to tell you it's a one it's a one

[01:31:41] I don't it's a one sir go just leave just leave just leave just leave it's okay because even with minimal effort he could have gotten into the spot that he's in uh sometimes he tries sometimes he

[01:31:52] tries he doesn't try sometimes he tells us he's trying in the in the in the diary rooms on the television show we get that he's Boston strong and he's doing all this stuff for his family but then

[01:32:00] we see him not trying we see him talking about quitting we see him volunteering to go up we see him doing a lot of weird stuff in the house and I can't reward that the boys get yep sir thank you

[01:32:10] for your service your time is up it is well I can tell you that the audience gave Kenny a two last week and this week they did in fact drop down to the very rare audience one we did it Joe and

[01:32:31] honestly I would it would feel extremely wrong of me to disrespect the audience by uh negating their one so I will I will follow suit oh yeah let me stop you right there Taryn have you considered

[01:32:45] that maybe Kenny is doing all this as strategy okay that's uh interesting thought from oh that's interesting oh that man has been kicked from the call he's back I'm back y'all it's me your mind

[01:33:03] Taryn Chappelle had to go you know we get to come on as as panelists for the round table every season it's a delight I would like to request the perk as a panelist I know on the form

[01:33:17] the form has its you know it's been the same you vote from one to attend that's the rating can we use zero I would like for you to reconsider can we just zero

[01:33:31] exactly this is the hidden all listen because then we got to go back and change some things I got a list of zeros I've been dying to give out for years sorry you get this one he got a line he gets a one then

[01:33:45] there it is Kenny gets the one sweep yeah I guess this is more the appropriate yes all right let's move on to chemo chemo one of our sevens from last week uh had a pretty rough

[01:34:10] rough week this time around uh the audience who gave him a seven last week dropped him down to a five this week um and man I gotta say big chemo fan right here

[01:34:28] I'm really disappointed with chemo's gameplay when I saw five I was like dang y'all y'all polite I'm I'm so upset because I feel like there's so much promise in chemo and I feel like his head

[01:34:43] is just not in the game and I'm not even just talking about the crush on Tucker I think in general his head is just not in the game I think his heart is not in the game right now um and and

[01:34:53] that bums me out he was my number one draft pick I bought him in the stock watch last like the previous week I had a lot of faith in him um but uh but this week has has kind of told me that I

[01:35:07] don't know if he's really in it right now and maybe he gets in it at some point but he's really just not in it right now um and I just have no faith in his strategic ability at the moment uh

[01:35:20] he's done basically zero damage control uh from the blow up that he caused by telling Tucker about this power um and he's had very few conversations strategically to get him in any kind of position

[01:35:35] we talked about this last week that he was in a good spot that T-Core was doing most of the talking and that was probably fine because at the time it just felt like oh well he's got his own

[01:35:43] things going on he's he's close to the people in the alliance while T-Core is working on the people out of the alliance but the reality is he's not really working on anyone except for maybe T-Core

[01:35:53] and she's kind of like well dude you didn't even tell me about this power uh and so I I I'm pretty down on chemo right now and I gotta give him a four. So yeah, what do you think?

[01:36:08] Oh it's tough because I also feel similarly I feel like in week one we kind of saw a very dejected chemo kind of defeated then he wins the AI comp and it's a new chemo like that confidence

[01:36:26] that he was riding really put him in a good spot last week he's out here making connections he's having a good time he's living his best life people love him it's a good time love that

[01:36:37] from chemo. Then this week in the first couple of days of the week before before the the whole Sunday and Monday stuff I felt decent about where chemo was because I felt like there was a lot of

[01:36:50] talk about maybe Rubina goes up but they they didn't want to put Rubina up because T-Core was so adamant on it and T-Core and chemo obviously are linked but chemo's name isn't coming up as

[01:37:00] the person to blame for maybe Rubina not going up or that they can put up and I thought that was intriguing because I was like well that's kind of perfect because even in the duo he's not seen as

[01:37:08] the main so he won't be the target that's good for him. So I was like that's a good spot to be in. It is wild that all of the drama we've gotten goes back to chemo and goes back to this crush

[01:37:22] that causes him to overshare with Tucker at a very bad time. Now what I will say is is I still have hope for chemo. I think if you're talking about him playing a cutthroat game or like

[01:37:35] a very good game I don't know. I think that's very much up in the air Terran. Weirdly I think he is very capable of being cutthroat. Well cutthroat but here's the thing so he is definitely riding

[01:37:48] a bit of sadness and air of a negative energy a bit of guilt but he's also getting all the sympathy today. I feel like that's not a bad spot to be in who's looking at chemo who's coming

[01:38:01] after chemo right now that's the question I would have out there. So I think in that regard he's fine I think there's definitely a bit of dip here because I think he kind of muddied the waters

[01:38:14] for himself and this is the big issue with them not having locked up a proper proper thing because all of this has caused some distrust with people with Quinn and other people so getting everyone back together could be tough getting the band together could be tough but

[01:38:29] I could still see him pivoting from here. I think I'm gonna give him a five because I could like similar to Joseph in a weird way I could see it going lower from here or higher from here

[01:38:40] and I don't feel any type of way to let you know I got back in the Sockwatch game by putting all my money on chemo so we're going down today it's not looking good. Let me tell you another thing

[01:38:55] about chemo because I think I talked a lot about chemo individually and so I'm realizing that it might slip me if I don't bring it up here but like collectively chemo, T-Core, Rubina even

[01:39:09] like they share an immense amount of responsibility for not taking control of the game in the spot that they were in and Quinn is guilty of this as well. Like we last this time last week we

[01:39:23] were talking about the visionaries and how they were just basically one step away from crossing the finish line and taking control of the entire game and they were like let's wait though and then

[01:39:34] they waited and they waited and they waited and then they got outed, they got exposed, they got targeted because they started leaking information, they lost Tucker and it's just a

[01:39:45] complete mess now and it's just it's such a fumble. It's the biggest fumble of the entire game as far as I'm concerned given how close they were to really just taking a stranglehold on this thing

[01:39:57] and then just completely letting it go and now they are all on the bottom again and it's wild to me that that happened in a week's time and it's entirely I think all of their fault for not

[01:40:06] just locking something in and just doing it. And so chemo also with my rating is sharing some of the responsibility for that. Taryn who would you say chemo's number one allies in this game like the

[01:40:19] top three allies that he has? I mean T-Core. It was Quinn, I'm not sure right now. Rubina. But even then like his relationship with Rubina is mostly through T-Core at this point. Like I don't

[01:40:36] even know how they are specifically. Right and that's what's bringing me to my rating here. I'm giving him a four. I think that he was fine. I think he was fine. I think that he fumbled this

[01:40:47] on his own. This was a mistake and I lay it right at his feet because why did you run your mouth? And then he got out it and then it shows that he betrayed a lot of the people that he had his back.

[01:40:56] Quinn is now betrayed. T-Core is betrayed. He's like why are you you just pissed off your top allies for what to what gain? You know what I'm saying? Like so it wasn't even worth the risk.

[01:41:08] So that's why I have to give him a four here. There's no point in saying oh well it's middle of the road because he's actively playing himself back into his shell. We liked when he came out of

[01:41:17] his shell. When he was confident. When he was when he after he won that competition. When he starts to be a little bit of a mover and a shaker but now oh he's back in. He's turtling again because

[01:41:27] there is a lot of there's like a lot of drama on him and yes he's getting some sympathy but if people start to really look at him like hey Kimo is not somebody who you can trust. Kimo

[01:41:35] is not reliable. Kimo betrayed me. Kimo didn't tell me about the power. Kimo is doing a lot of damage to his own game in a way that a lot of these people are getting you know their games

[01:41:45] are getting blown up by other people. Kimo did this to himself and so I have to give him a four. Hey can we also talk about how there have been two collective meetings

[01:41:54] and he hasn't been to either one? Nope. Mm-hmm. Slept right through him like what are you doing? Yeah. Why? What are you doing? Nobody nobody hopes that Kimo turns this around more than me.

[01:42:07] He is on my draft team. I do really like him as a person but man yeah rough week for Kimo. All right let's then talk about Leah and I will kick off here with Leah. It's rough.

[01:42:27] It's rough. You want to talk about draft teams Taren? You want to talk about draft? I popped off that Amman picked Cedric and I could have Leah. You know how stupid I look?

[01:42:38] You know how dumb I look right now? It's not great. Nope. Not great. And Chipotle you and I were both very much high on Leah coming into the season as well. Yeah oh no I saw I saw the potential

[01:42:52] I saw the potential and then she just started making mistakes voting uh out voting to keep Matt what was that what was that about why would you do that you know you knew he was going

[01:43:01] she had to have known he was going I mean it's let's be let's be very clear if you don't know he's going you're not paying attention and so like from there I think she just hasn't been able to

[01:43:08] recover all of these like little loves things that she's doing uh flirting with uh Tucker and he's not interested flirting with Cam and he is interested but she's not interested and all these these lovers quarrels she's getting into like she's not doing anything to make her game any

[01:43:24] better so I'm not shocked that you were over there feeling it with your draft pick. Yeah nobody wants to work with her. Yeah yeah there's like there's like even MJ doesn't really want to work with

[01:43:33] she's just kind of stuck with her like nobody nobody except for Cam and even Cam is like I don't want to work with her. Yeah I would say work with her you know it's a problem it's a problem

[01:43:49] uh and again like this this thing with Tucker should have been a massive opportunity for player like yeah and she just hasn't hasn't taken it so someone brought up for sure someone brought

[01:43:59] up in the chat Leah said boo tomato is her thing and gets upset when people use it in the house Chappelle how do you feel about that? Wow yeah listen I hope you didn't buy Leah's stocks this

[01:44:13] time because I'm about to send you straight to hell people gonna be jumping off of buildings by the time I get done rating this woman I'm joking um no I really think that she had some

[01:44:23] opportunities to Cam is in a tight alliance you should be Cam's plus one because we know he's going out of his way to include you in conversations that you ain't got no business being in you also

[01:44:33] had Quinn fighting over you and you just kind of disregarded Quinn and left him out into where he felt like okay even if this isn't a showman it don't even feel like we have a really good one

[01:44:44] on one relationship together you know she's just throwing a lot of these people who did want to work to work with her to the side and yeah there now they don't want to work with her but she had

[01:44:53] opportunities and she's fumbling each of them yeah I gave her three yeah I feel like I would have been so here to champion Leah had she just absorbed all the information from Quinn kept him kept that relationship going kept like oh harmless flirt whatever she already established

[01:45:15] we're just friends kind of doing a similar thing with Quinn I started with Quinn with Cam but with Cam maybe the door's a little bit open the minute she said I'm not really feeling Cam it's all about

[01:45:27] Tucker for me and started telling people it was at that point that I knew this ain't going nowhere it was looking like a promising very promising game move for me I was really loving that

[01:45:39] but even Quinn just Quinn you bat an eyelid at this boy and he gives you information for the free she had they were telling her earlier today they were like yeah I think Tucker said this like yeah

[01:45:51] Quinn said he'd throw away his game for you and she was like ew gross girl that's an ick you know what my icky is that somebody's saying I'm willing to hand you a bunch of money you'll

[01:46:02] be like you'll know what money I don't want that you know gross get away from me I want to chase around Tucker like do you understand do you see how she's sitting there with a clown makeup on

[01:46:11] a clown nose and a clown afro and a big old clown shoes talking about ill bam bam this is a game your head in the game it's unfortunate because I definitely think that a Leah who understands the

[01:46:26] game and is willing to play this flirtatious game can do damage in this game and it would be entertaining to watch the issue is she doesn't have that information I also think for me this

[01:46:38] should this should remind people moving forward even if you find out that someone is very good friends or family with super fans who have said you are the chosen one go on the show don't trust

[01:46:48] that because if someone's a big fan of the show and knows all the ins and outs doesn't mean the person they that's going to play who's their friend knows or understands the game themselves

[01:46:58] keep that in mind I'll go as far as to say a person whose friends and family describes as you would be good on Big Brother will probably not be good at Big Brother yes do you know how

[01:47:11] many people tweet me like Chappelle we gotta get you on Big Brother I said because y'all know I'm a clown y'all know I'd be sitting there with my clown nose on and my clown shoes and my clown

[01:47:18] makeup on see that's what I'm saying they we want good tv if somebody tells you that they know you're gonna go act a fool and we're gonna see and we're gonna drag you and people gonna people gonna rally

[01:47:26] behind hating you because Leah if Leah was outside the house tweeting she would be tweeting negative things about Leah inside the house she wouldn't even be rooting for this character nothing in

[01:47:35] your personal life should be indicative of you being good at Big Brother is kind of what I'm saying like people should not be like you're you're conniving and backstabbing you like you

[01:47:45] lie good you should go play what does that say about you as a human exactly exactly like I if people are like I listen to Chappelle on the podcast I think he'd be good on the show I think

[01:47:55] that tracks but if if people in your real life Chappelle were like oh Chappelle you're so manipulative and you're so good at like doing like that's a bad sign like bro I just I just finished serving

[01:48:07] meals at the soup kitchen don't ever call me manipulative you know what I'm saying like but even then they're telling me I'd be good on the show not that you would be uh actively good at

[01:48:16] the game you would be good to watch we love to watch people like Tucker we love to watch people like Angela you know those people are not necessarily good at the game but they are good tv

[01:48:27] Leah I argue that you're not doing either of those things right now she's not good tv right now and she's not really good at the game yeah I'm gonna also give her a three all right and I'm giving her

[01:48:38] a two boy well the audience did go with the three so there we go she gets a two for me because at least somebody want to work with Angela all right Puya kick us off with Mackenzie okay so big ticket

[01:48:59] items for Mackenzie this week uh she I really loved the weaponizing of her power to stay off the block and she nearly gets there um ultimately because of and and I truly I run funnily enough

[01:49:13] I truly believe the house if Mackenzie did not use it I don't think she was going anywhere come Thursday I really don't um I mean unless you you uh Kenny wins the AI arena then maybe they're like

[01:49:26] you know what goodbye you should have used it um so but I but I feel like the power getting flushed now she has she doesn't have any of that heat on her anymore Quinn has basically absorbed all the

[01:49:39] power heat I think it also she benefited from the fact that Quinn kept it a secret and she was more vocal about having it um so that's good for her I just don't know where Mackenzie goes from here

[01:49:50] you know I really don't and that's not a bad thing that just means to me on the board if I was doing predictions for everybody Mackenzie is the biggest question mark because I have no idea

[01:50:02] um I think that obviously she has been seen as a duo with Leah but I feel like even that has becoming a little bit more severed um but I don't know where she goes she doesn't have the

[01:50:13] power anymore could she be an asset does someone get Leah out to pick up Mackenzie I could see that happening it's a question mark man and you know I see that she got a five last week I'm almost in

[01:50:24] a position where I would give her the five this week as well um that being said maybe I give her a four because I feel like the most likely HOH next week barring a AI arena loss and an eviction

[01:50:40] is Quinn and Quinn I think would be one of the people that's definitely putting her up on that block so let me see what I give a four you have Cedric a four I don't even think

[01:50:49] I'm not giving her a three she's doing better than Leah but at four four four five well bro maybe am I going lower how low can you go for it on Cedric I don't know that's

[01:51:04] oh you know what I gave him a four because the math was like whatever okay we'll give her a four give her a four well I'm gonna match that energy because uh Mackenzie the reason you're on the

[01:51:15] block is because you told everybody about your power you told everybody everybody everybody everybody about your power this is a power for a reason it should not have landed you on the block

[01:51:23] it's the reason why you got put up this is this is insane you were gifted something from big brother and you just floundered and did nothing with it and ended up having to use it you had no clue what

[01:51:33] was going on when you ended she ended up on the block you're like wait I guess I gotta use this damn power she was trying to hold on to it you know like this this is madness um I don't see

[01:51:41] where she's going in the game I don't like that you give somebody an advantage in the game and it turns into a detriment for her immediately uh she's lost already her number one ally in match

[01:51:52] I haven't seen her be able to really solidify anything except for maybe like the girls alliance I think might be like her strongest thing that I would I would say that's probably got her

[01:51:59] a little bit a little covered but it's not enough and I think that like you said Quinn most likely to come back and uh he's going to take over that next hoh it'll be wild for him not

[01:52:09] to and so uh if he does then yeah Mackenzie you're probably going up on the block and it'd be a good chance that you might go home too and I think that you did nothing to make yourself like to not put

[01:52:19] yourself in this position people have been questioning who had all these powers all the time but Mackenzie has been very open about having the power into what to what gain what has that done for you Mackenzie so yeah she's gonna afford for me well the audience agrees as

[01:52:34] do I uh having to use her power this week is brutal she should have had four weeks of safety she now had three weeks of safety um and she almost didn't use it and even though I do agree

[01:52:50] that she was probably safe probably is not not safe I would want to be with uh when I have a guaranteed safety no way um there are some outs for her I don't think she's playing as poorly

[01:53:04] as Leah and I think she has uh more upside than Leah right now but uh but she is in a pretty rough spot at the moment and she no longer has that safety and she very nearly did not use a

[01:53:16] veto on herself so uh it's gonna be a four from me. Chappelle. Whoa this is tough this is tough this is Quinn okay we're talking about Quinn Quinn could go home this week normally when somebody I know you're also watching this

[01:53:35] hello hope you're doing well man how dare you how dare you the way you acting in this house really Quinn really as much as we've been through anyway so Quinn here's the problem normally at this point

[01:53:47] in the game we know who's sitting on the block and we're like you got put on the block you could go home we gotta get your low scores Quinn is technically not on the block so it would be

[01:53:58] wild for me to just be like well you're going home then again he probably will be on the block we don't know but we're just trying we're just gauging it so it could be Quinn Quinn could be on

[01:54:07] the block but then again he might not go home at that point and if he doesn't go home he's really good socially the house blew up and people are still welcoming Quinn back they're like okay I

[01:54:18] think this is fine you see people like Chelsea like Brooklyn who really like don't care you know like this is fine whatever it's that was between Tucker and Quinn if Quinn gets out Tucker this

[01:54:27] week Quinn is in a great position because Tucker's as big as ops I just feel like it's really hard to gauge this man because you should not have been in this position in the first place why are you

[01:54:38] like this you having to use your power basically being being forced in this position against where we're like oh well you got to use your power next week or else I mean or else you could end up on

[01:54:47] the block you know so I'm really like I'm torn because it it could be great for him at the end of this week it could also be him at home watching this very podcast and so I cannot give him a

[01:54:59] positive score and I really can't give him a neutral score at this point I can't give him a five I can't give him a five because he put himself in his position with messy gameplay messy gameplay

[01:55:09] is the reason why you got here uh okay he's got a match Quinn I mean McKenzie it's four for me it's a four yeah but I am very disappointed in you very disappointed in you young man bad Quinn

[01:55:23] learn from this the audience also gave Quinn a four and I will say I've I feel very similarly um and I'm really it's such a difficult rating because he is probably safe but might not be

[01:55:41] possibly and if he is safe he has a whole week of hoh next week to recover but if he's not safe he's gone maybe and then also I have to account for the fact that like yes he escaped this

[01:55:58] and he's in a mostly fine position but also this is like entirely his fault and it was all unforced so it's like how do I rectify all of that how do I like balance all of that in my head

[01:56:13] and honestly I think that what I want to do is say right now it's awful he played terribly he's gotten sevens and sixes up until this point and I need something to represent just how poorly

[01:56:29] he has put himself into this spot uh played to put himself into the spot and if he comes back next week he comes back next week and there'll be a big swing up but right now I'm gonna I'm gonna

[01:56:40] get him down at the dip and I'm gonna give him a three and you deserve that Quinn honestly you deserve to get him again get him for me you know yeah it is it is very interesting because

[01:56:55] Quinn has a or had slash has a lot of connections and I that should be celebrated right like we should be here saying dude has so many alliances so many places he can go if this person wins he

[01:57:08] has this relationship that relationship if this person explodes he's got this other person to fall back on but the issue is and we talked about how Joseph has a lot of information now that's

[01:57:19] currency you can save it use it later Quinn gets information and then spends it immediately I have information you blinked at me dude in order to pay you back for giving me a compliment here's

[01:57:33] the pentagon you said good morning to me T-Core myself and and Kimo are looking like we're doing something Mike what are you doing keep it to yourself this is my biggest issue with Quinn

[01:57:48] if I have one issue is this Quinn likes to talk but also likes to share and he likes to do the final two share with people the problem is he does that with too many people you can do the final two

[01:58:00] share hell if I have a final two I still don't give him the full pie I give him a couple you know a bit a decent chunk of it never the whole thing keep the whole thing for yourself and I think

[01:58:09] that's my biggest issue with Quinn is that he has a lot of good information I think he does good with the building of connections I even would say that despite the blow up and everything I thought he

[01:58:21] recovered well with the apology tour he went on yesterday I still think he has a lot of fostering of those relationships he has to do which is another thing that I've seen him do incorrectly

[01:58:30] um you know we talked about the fostering relationships with with Leah he did say Leah's only talking to me at nighttime not really talking to me at all you could have also still put

[01:58:39] in a shift there um with right now with T-Core and Kimo they've not really talked today and he's like oh yeah you know I'm I'm I'm still I give them my true self they know the full me I've apologized

[01:58:50] but I haven't really talked to them today why talk to them talk to them rebuild the rebuild the relationships that is my biggest issue with him that is my biggest issue with him that and

[01:59:00] um this is a PSA to all of you viewers who end up wanting to go on the show um uh never never take everything we say on the pod as gospel for when you go on the show oh no you're in a no you

[01:59:13] know Darren you are going on a show with a cast of 15 other people that you have not met and don't know doesn't mean they're going to be a one for one for stuff you've learned on this pod you got

[01:59:23] to get to know them first and work those players work the cast that you're in let's be real though that we have yeah Quinn is very much not in line with what we talk about no this is true

[01:59:37] this is more of a this is more of an overarching PSA it's not to do with Quinn specific it's just happening in the Quinn segment because Brooklyn listens to the podcast and she's fine you know

[01:59:45] what she's the one that's doing everything we're telling people to do let's take that the other thing that are bad then we don't who are you we've never met we don't i don't even

[01:59:56] think she listens quite honestly one of the thing i want to say is and i think this is the one of the biggest lessons that Quinn has maybe maybe shared with us a lot of house guests have

[02:00:08] if you think for even a second that you're somebody who you can't help yourself like if you know something you kind of want to tell somebody don't want a power and big brother

[02:00:17] do not want a power inside that house if you feel like oh it's gonna eat me alive to not share that with anybody then throw the competition you don't need that power it's only gonna hurt you in some

[02:00:27] way shape or form and i think right now Quinn is dealing with that the added benefit for him or the silver lining is that the power is literally hoh so it's a break glass in case of emergency

[02:00:40] now i did see that he was talking about wanting to win the hoh outright next week sir you can't play in the hoh following that what are you doing take two hohs to recover i don't know what you're

[02:00:53] doing the more you know what i was gonna say a four when chapelle was talking the more i'm talking now i'm aggravated and i want to give him three get him get out oh you know what it would be a

[02:01:04] it would be a good sign of disrespect to give him a three to the same level as leah right now so you know what quinn you know what quinn you made your bed take the three get him get him yeah

[02:01:15] yeah there's no world where i should be saying well quinn should be good as long as t-core and chemo don't flip on him why is that even a thought in my life why is that even a possibility on the

[02:01:29] board that's absurd those are the people he is the closest with has given the most to and they conceivably might flip on him uh yeah that's atrocious um and uh and there's also no

[02:01:43] world where i should be saying leah's a locked vote against him how is that happening how how angela angela barely like quinn angela she don't got nowhere else to go and she's still like bro

[02:01:58] i don't need quinn you're like quinn oh did you mess this up quinn here's the problem quinn is a love bomber yeah okay it's very good he will he meets a person he like he's whining and

[02:02:15] dining them he they're your best he's their best friend they feel great around quinn everything is great and then uh you know then he's like ah i gotta take a trip somewhere else and then you

[02:02:27] never hear from him again and then he shows up again and he's like hey i love you so much here's some more information and then he leaves and he goes meets with other people and you never hear

[02:02:35] from him again yeah and you're like what the hell you been whenever you come to you like what we've been but he sweet talks his way back into everybody's heart and that's why i had to give

[02:02:44] him a four because after that big blow up we should be looking at quinn like well it's a wrap but he still has allies in fact he has the majority of the house in his favor it's it's a slim

[02:02:54] majority but it is the slim majority it is a majority so yeah he's gonna stay a four for me yeah i think the some of the good positive things for him is that there's quite a few people that

[02:03:03] he's been aligned with when there were murmurs of maybe he has the power the sentiment was very much like you know what if he has the power that's good that means that the people i wasn't working

[02:03:12] with don't have it and i'm okay with that and they were they understood where he was coming from with not sharing so there is two sides to the house right some people felt betrayed some people felt

[02:03:22] like i get it it's fine that is a testament to how good he could be socially that is a testament to how good he could be playing this game i just think he's been making some very bad mistakes that

[02:03:32] he's potentially gonna end up suffering for um and and quinn let it be known right here man if i if because right now i don't think i'm winning this draft but if aman wins this draft i'm gonna

[02:03:44] blame you somehow okay i'm just gonna put that out there it's your fault i don't know how i don't know how we got here man but it is what it is clean it up clean this up well uh i believe we

[02:03:57] are then going to start with the audience for rubina um the audience gave rubina um and i think i'll agree i think i'll agree with that actually i think that rubina definitely took a

[02:04:16] hit this week um i think that uh there is a world where i give her a four because of that but um but i do think that with tucker and kenny and mj and leah there are still

[02:04:36] targets in front of her that i think are more man i say that but then it really depends um um there's a world where i give her a four here but this is what i'll say about rubina

[02:04:49] i think that um outside of her relationship with tucker which i think is bad for her game right now uh because of and i'm not saying she should drop tucker for the record um i don't think that she

[02:05:03] should be like campaigning for him to leave or wanting him to leave he's great for her game in the sense that he's going to draw attention away so on and so forth um but he's also very

[02:05:12] bad for her game in the sense that he's dragging her down but even before tucker there was a massive problem where she got caught trying to make an alliance because she was too slow on

[02:05:22] solidifying the alliance with i'm almost i i i'm gonna give her five i'm gonna give her five uh i think there's i think there's a world where she bounces back from this i have a little more

[02:05:33] faith in her right now than i do somebody like kemo unfortunately um because she's more active and her relationships are a little more solid however um i uh i think her position right now

[02:05:46] has significantly fallen from last week and that's a problem what do you think we have there is a world that i would have rated her lower than this if the house was soured on tucker like

[02:06:00] completely which they have not because for a lot of the aftermath it was ravina defending tucker and then trying to make sure tucker is okay and if the house was angry with him you know

[02:06:13] because we've seen in seasons where someone calls a house meeting or blows up the house and then everyone's like mad at them tucker is not suffering from that so it hasn't really you know caused any

[02:06:23] problems for ravina i think ravina's in a very decent spot as someone who she's definitely good socially with quite a few people obviously one of the biggest issues in her game had been the

[02:06:34] lack of game talk with some people which we saw cedric consider putting her up for that fact and that fact alone but she still has people that are willing to go to bat for her i think she's someone

[02:06:43] who this week moves on i think she can be forgotten go back into the background a little bit which is not a bad spot to be in um almost being a free agent at this stage in the game is kind of

[02:06:55] low-key nice because the game is almost restarting in a weird way so not having any prior locked in things means you have less of a messy background to come in so that's good in a way um i think a

[02:07:10] five is appropriate i really do because you know again we talked about with keema we talked about with joseph the fives for me have been i could see your game going up from here or or sinking

[02:07:19] potentially a little bit from here but you have potential on both sides relatively well and it's not like you had done a lot of good things for me to dock you a lot of points or you did a lot of bad

[02:07:29] things for me to rise you up a lot it's kind of like just bang average yeah but i want to go on record that this is a 4.9 for me okay so it's still a five right it's still a five you're gonna round

[02:07:40] it up but at the same time it's like the whole tucker situation is when one way tucker's dragging her down but also she could be losing her tightest ally in tucker and that that relationship is weird

[02:07:51] to me anyway um he could be going home this week and i don't even know if that's great for her like i don't really know if she knows um and so uh yeah for me nothing to nothing to really rant

[02:08:00] about it's just robina she needs to make a move at some point to really get herself some real solid allies to take some power but right now just being a lone wolf that no one is actively coming after

[02:08:09] i think she's all right she did she could have been a big target this week uh and somehow managed to to dodge that probably due to her wild ass ally in tucker so um yeah there was i think i was leaning

[02:08:21] but uh my four wouldn't change much so i'll stick with the five wow another five oh boy uh all right let's move on then to t-core um man this one's rough because i was loving t-core last

[02:08:38] week i still i feel like there's still a lot of promise in t-core she's active in a way that chemo is not um and her position isn't as bad as rubina's um but i still have a lot of criticism

[02:08:53] for her just not like locking in on things um and not staying on top of things and uh and quite frankly i think this idea of the fact that i do think it's possible she could potentially flip

[02:09:10] and take out quinn this week i think is wild uh i think that's a terrible idea uh and if she actually did it my rating would plummet um but uh but i don't think she will but she might but i

[02:09:27] don't think she will but it's a problem that i think she might um and so uh there's a little bit of that going on there um so i'm gonna punish her for for primarily for not locking things in

[02:09:42] her position has definitely fallen um but i'm not gonna go quite as low as a five because i do still feel like there's potential here and i don't think that she outside of that did anything too actively

[02:09:54] wrong so i'm gonna give her the six it feels a little generous to be honest but um but i i do still feel like she's got outs and so that's what i'm going with oh yeah right and you pass the mic

[02:10:12] to me i here's the i think that's probably the arguably the biggest flaw of t-course game is the lack of locking stuff up or getting something official going all of that being said though

[02:10:24] i said this earlier i think it is an art form to be able to your way through a conversation and not have people think you're giving me nothing you don't care about what i have to say they buy it

[02:10:37] for one reason or another they buy it they're okay with it they're like you know she there's a way you leave that conversation feeling lighter feeling better and i think that's a benefit to her i think

[02:10:47] it's worth noting that t-course request of don't put rabina up carried so much weight that cedric was unwilling to budge that should show you that she has some kind of sway in there she has some

[02:11:01] capabilities in there i think again the biggest flaw is not really having a lock up um but i i don't know i feel like obviously she's not getting that seven um that she had last week i think game

[02:11:14] kind of went down a little bit here the lack of locking stuff up can can suffer uh for her she can suffer from here but i still think t-course is going to be fine next week and i still think that

[02:11:24] we have plenty of days to go till thursday we also don't know who's going on the block i think some of these relationships are going to get patched up post this meltdown that the house was in yesterday

[02:11:34] and i could see her i could see her being being decent i can see her being decent um so i'm gonna go ahead as well and i do not have a six in my ratings i've hit all the colors of the rainbow

[02:11:48] up until the seven which i said was the ceiling i'm gonna give her a six because i have a feeling that ain't coming to tucker so who yeah let's go ahead and get this six out the way for t-core for

[02:11:58] me too uh i agree with everything i was saying i just i i give more credit to chelsea and brooklyn right now because they're not actively making their game worse in their inactive inactivity

[02:12:07] i think that when t-core is active she's she was doing she was doing the things i like to see but now i mean her best alliance is kind of just in shambles the the whole um the whole uh chemo

[02:12:19] and quinn like that i felt like that was the three we should be looking at but i think she's good with both sides i think that she's fine i think that uh if she can bounce back and take

[02:12:27] control then i'd be willing to give her another one another like a seven or something like that but right now just you know i feel like she uh she didn't move the needle in a positive way this time

[02:12:35] so i'm giving her a six all right uh the audience agreed with us they gave her six as well um all right oh yeah oh let me please go ahead please pick me pick me this man could go home and it

[02:12:51] might be his own doing he's it this is ridiculous this is ridiculous this is ridiculous everything that he's done this week i have disagreed with i don't know i don't understand how we got here

[02:13:02] why none of this is okay none of it is okay i don't know how to grade this what we just watched because if he goes home this week i need to be able to retroactively go back and get that zero

[02:13:14] we were going to give to jag and the zero that you tried to give out this week will you and we need to just go ahead and give one to tucker because you he's basically walking out the house

[02:13:21] on his own it you could he could literally get voted out this week if kenny wins that ai competition and if quinn uh or dear god yeah if quinn gets all the votes and it looks like quinn

[02:13:32] could get all the votes it's not this is not a slam dunk move from tucker this is a kamikaze move well if it's not quinn and it's anybody else chappelle there's no debate on whether or not

[02:13:42] there's votes i think tucker goes and that's yeah and that's the wildest part is like you did this to yourself you did and so i just blah i don't like this at all um angela's doing nothing and i

[02:13:55] gave her a two uh but if this works if this works this is wild this is a wild gameplay from this man he will bounce back from it it looks like they're already like his social game is good enough

[02:14:09] but also i have to look at this person as is this the strategic force of the game if this person going to be able to pull this off we where we can get all the way to the end i just don't see

[02:14:19] it uh the lowest score i gave out was leah at this point i think uh well not yeah angela got the two leah got a two kenny with the one kenny was the one yeah okay tucker can have the two he can have

[02:14:39] a two as well uh because he's not out the out the door at all by you know by any means right now but dear god i why did you do this this was all bad it was all self-inflicted and i didn't like

[02:14:51] none of it i'll tell you this i like it's it feels kind of weird because it's almost like tucker doesn't actually want to be there like it's almost like he wants to go home and so it doesn't feel

[02:15:07] like it's as big a mistake as it normally would if he if tucker was like oh i'm really scared that i might go home now he'd be like well what are you doing then dummy but because he's like i don't

[02:15:17] yeah i don't even care you're like oh i guess i guess it's not that bad then um but the reality is for the way i'm judging it is that he should want to be there and so yeah this is a no-brainer

[02:15:28] for me he didn't use the veto on himself he uh it's this is like the biggest belly flop uh in that we've seen in a long time in terms of like uh sending yourself out the door

[02:15:43] um what's funny to me is that i like what the the point you just made taryn about him not being afraid to go home right he definitely does not care if he goes home he goes home he keeps

[02:15:54] celebrating that i'm the reason why the game is playing being played right now that it's happening because i did this no one was playing it was boring i did this the funny thing to me is i think kenny

[02:16:05] looks at tucker and says you and i cut from the same cloth i too am not afraid to go home it's like big difference here kenny he's willing to go home and do whatever it takes and if he goes home he

[02:16:18] goes home you are laying down and begging them to let you leave but you can i keep my can i keep my stipend can i keep my thousand dollars sweet kenny k has a grocery bill no get out anyway i'm just

[02:16:31] expensive it's four hundred dollars a night and so i read you've done your research okay no listen let's be very honest everybody if the stock watch was based on entertainment if it was who provided

[02:16:48] fun content tucker is in a very good spot to get a high number here that's not what this is for but at the same time y'all can i be honest as much as i resonate with your ratings i'm going

[02:17:01] to give him a higher number and i'll tell you why in the event he does stay i think he could be in a good spot and i don't want some of these by the dip people to go a hundred dollar hundred stocks

[02:17:16] worth of tucker and then take a massive lead not giving a five because that's ridiculous i will i want so here's the other thing i'm like thinking on layers here and maybe this is because i haven't

[02:17:28] slept right last night but i like the idea of someone like a quinn who may very well come back and watch all these back see this and be like oh the week that tucker did all that didn't use the

[02:17:38] veto he got a three as well same as me yes give him a three insanity insanity but it's funny but insane but it's fun insane this man did not use the veto on himself

[02:17:55] that did insane i was gonna give a plus one for entertainment personally he does get style points i'm gonna give him a three here's the thing the audience agreed with yeah we are the same audience

[02:18:13] you don't say that's not right in the chat please just cause that's all right you did this too you're in bed with me on this one we are together this is who you lay with audience this is who you

[02:18:24] lay with here's the thing though here's here's what i will say i will say one thing about what you said pia which is that you're right there is a chance he comes out of this not only unscathed

[02:18:36] but maybe even in a better position um but what i will say to that is i 100 believe that he will find a way to escape that good position and get back into this position oh he'll volunteer

[02:18:49] immediately somehow he'll do it again it makes no sense listen let's be on the same page fundamentally not using the veto on yourself is stupid end of and and if like if you're there with like a family

[02:19:06] member or a loved one like i understand you're gonna do that because that you know the one of you gets to say whatever okay cool but then to use it on angela you are working with kenny not

[02:19:18] that i want kenny to stay you are sitting on the block with someone that you're in this new alliance called the ball boys or whatever and you use it to not save yourself not save your ball boy but to

[02:19:30] save angela weird it's the wrong weird yeah very weird yeah um all right well that is the stock watch then for the week um i can i can tell you i don't know how i got this lucky but uh brooklyn

[02:19:54] is a b and she was the first person i saw that looked relatively safe and in 30 seconds i bought brooklyn there you go there you go uh you what can you say you can't argue with her position um

[02:20:10] you cannot you actually can't having me on taryn i know we before we started this podcast taryn said i definitely want to make this go longer than two and a half hours so i'm actually gonna try

[02:20:19] or yeah he's got as long as possible honestly so i'm gonna filibuster for about 10 minutes um but no this has been so much fun i it's so hard to grade these people right now because

[02:20:29] they're not being normal just act like you're normal stop being weird then i'll be back all right well that is what we have for you then this week what a week there's uh so much

[02:20:45] so much that happened uh and perhaps much more that will happen over the course of the next week we will of course be back next week to rate the players once again in the meantime you can go

[02:20:54] to reality stockwatch.com buy and sell uh and maybe you'll get as lucky as me this week uh and we'll see if that luck continues i'm gonna give you my login you just buy my stocks from

[02:21:05] now on okay i'll give you some of the some like a kickback i feel like i've used it all up yeah i might just retire that was genuinely like i the the fog was about to run out and i

[02:21:20] just like smashed buttons yeah i was between chemo and and and t-core and i just thought the chemo bump would be uh more money and it and it wasn't yeah so uh i was i i did

[02:21:35] deliberately avoid the the chemo t-core because i was worried they would that they would fall based on their hesitancy but uh that's where we are um i'll be back of course tomorrow morning
