Today, Taran and Maggie Morgan recap the live feeds from day 12 of Big Brother 26.[00:00:10] [SPEAKER_02]: and Armstrong talk Big Brother looking at the stuff from yesterday. All the drama, all the strategy and silliness from Fido to HOA. Single season, you know he is the reason, you know what's happening. Rob said that he could do it, tomorrow he will do it again.
[00:00:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Hello everyone and good morning. Welcome to our live feed update for July 28th. I'm your host, John Armstrong, and I'm here today to update you on everything that happened yesterday on the Big Brother 26 live feeds. It was day 12 in the house and there was a veto competition. There was drama. There were cut
[00:01:12] [SPEAKER_03]: feeds. There were secrets revealed. And with me to talk about it all is Maggie. How you doing, Maggie?
[00:01:22] [SPEAKER_01]: I swear my stream yard like it, it just immediate like the page just went goodbye. Like you're gone. I was like, what happened? I'm good. Maybe this is like the omen of the day. I feel like I'm a bad omen coming on the live feed updates because there's a specific occurrence that I'm not going to be in the past.
[00:01:42] [SPEAKER_01]: That seems to only happen on days that I'm covering the live feeds, which we'll talk a lot about today because it was the story. But yeah, I think everybody's tired of it. Nobody, nobody wants the feeds to cut. Nobody wants what's going on in the house to happen. And yeah.
[00:02:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Certainly, certainly, certainly. So let's talk about it. Let's talk through the day here on the feeds. Of course, as we all know, Chelsea is the HOH. She nominated Angela, Kenny and Lisa with Lisa as the target.
[00:02:25] [SPEAKER_03]: And there was a little bit of drama that might there be a pawn to be used instead. Should we throw up Cam or Cedric? Initially, it was Mackenzie or Leah, but eventually they just got down to Lisa going up straight on the block.
[00:02:51] [SPEAKER_03]: And so that's what happened. But we do still have a veto competition to play. And and there's some more drama to get through. So let's talk about it. One thing that was mentioned yesterday was that Quinn had told T-Cor about Angela noticing a group of people in the backyard hanging out talking.
[00:03:14] [SPEAKER_03]: And it said something along the lines of like. That's the group. And and Quinn told T-Cor about this the night before.
[00:03:27] [SPEAKER_03]: And today here on day 12. T-Cor took some issue with that talking to to Cam about how like, hey, just, you know, Angela pointed us out the other day when we were hanging out.
[00:03:44] [SPEAKER_03]: It was T-Cor, it was T-Cor, Cam, Cedric and Chelsea together. And so very quickly, you can sort of realize, wait a minute.
[00:03:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Is she pointing out this group for a reason? Because that seems a little specific.
[00:04:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. And yes, Cam, Chelsea and Cedric are locked in together and do have some the three C's alliance.
[00:04:16] [SPEAKER_01]: But T-Cor is not a part of that was just hanging out.
[00:04:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, you know, like I said, this is something that actually I don't know why, but I'm always seem to be on the update when things like this happen in the house.
[00:04:33] [SPEAKER_01]: I have nothing new or interesting to add, but I did want to read a tweet from BB 23 winner Xavier.
[00:04:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Just I think that this really sums up the way that we should all be looking at this situation.
[00:04:50] [SPEAKER_01]: Xavier says to future house guests, a cookout 2.0 isn't going to happen.
[00:04:56] [SPEAKER_01]: People have tried and failed. What we did was rare and isn't easily duplicated.
[00:05:00] [SPEAKER_01]: My advice, avoid claiming POCs are banning together without substantial evidence.
[00:05:05] [SPEAKER_01]: It will help you both in and out of the game.
[00:05:08] [SPEAKER_01]: And then he says to clarify, calling out alliances is not a bad thing.
[00:05:13] [SPEAKER_01]: It's part of Big Brother.
[00:05:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Notice my advice was simply to help future house guests avoid getting a Kyle treatment since there always seems to be more controversy when people suggest POCs are working together post cookout.
[00:05:25] [SPEAKER_01]: And I think that the interesting or the most important thing about his this tweet is that he said, avoid claiming POCs are banning together without substantial evidence.
[00:05:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Like if you see four people hanging out in the backyard, maybe don't say this is the group.
[00:05:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Right. And and and the thing, too, is that, like, there's a lot of there's some some debate about like what she even meant here.
[00:05:57] [SPEAKER_03]: And and and so, you know, so T-Core is talking to Cedric about this and and and feels a certain way about it.
[00:06:07] [SPEAKER_03]: She eventually talks to this eventually comes back to Chelsea as well as they kind of talk about it in general.
[00:06:15] [SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, I don't think that they are like, you know, like super upset about this.
[00:06:22] [SPEAKER_03]: It's just kind of like let's talk about this. Let's sort of like get a sense of how we feel about it.
[00:06:28] [SPEAKER_03]: And so eventually this conversation comes back to Angela that Chelsea is going to have a conversation with Angela in the H.
[00:06:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Waitrum, a good portion of this is not on the feeds, but it becomes relatively clear that that that Angela is told about this and or questioned about this in some way.
[00:06:55] [SPEAKER_03]: And she then is going to go and talk to Quinn because she's been made aware that Quinn was sort of the the cause of all of this, that the information came from him.
[00:07:06] [SPEAKER_03]: He's the one that she told it to and she confronts him in the bathroom and she's like, Quinn, what the hell?
[00:07:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Why would you do this to me? And he's like, what do you mean?
[00:07:23] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, why did you tell them that? Why did you tell T-Core that I said this?
[00:07:28] [SPEAKER_03]: And he's like, I mean, I didn't mean it in a bad way.
[00:07:31] [SPEAKER_03]: I was just trying to be like, hey, you know, I was like, I want this to be like a good relationship between you and T-Core.
[00:07:39] [SPEAKER_03]: You see, you're lying to me.
[00:07:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Why are you lying to me, Quinn? I trusted you.
[00:07:44] [SPEAKER_03]: He's like, why?
[00:07:46] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, well, I genuinely I didn't even think like I thought you were saying like that's the group.
[00:07:51] [SPEAKER_03]: But like those are the people we're working with.
[00:07:53] [SPEAKER_03]: So I was just trying to tell T-Core like, hey, I think we should like talk about this.
[00:07:58] [SPEAKER_03]: I didn't even mean it in a bad way.
[00:08:00] [SPEAKER_03]: That's crazy.
[00:08:02] [SPEAKER_03]: That's crazy, Quinn.
[00:08:03] [SPEAKER_03]: How could you do this to me?
[00:08:06] [SPEAKER_03]: And as this is happening, T-Core walks into the bathroom.
[00:08:12] [SPEAKER_03]: And and she's like, can you explain what's happening right now?
[00:08:15] [SPEAKER_03]: And she says, this is exactly what's happening.
[00:08:19] [SPEAKER_03]: The feed's cut.
[00:08:21] [SPEAKER_01]: And I think.
[00:08:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, yesterday was atrocious with feed cuts.
[00:08:28] [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm going to be honest, it makes us feel like something really bad or sinister must be going on.
[00:08:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Like it adds this color to all of this where we're because we're unable to watch these conversations go down.
[00:08:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I don't know how T-Core feels about this after the conversation with Angela.
[00:08:52] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what was said between Chelsea and Angela.
[00:08:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Like I it makes us have to fill in blanks that I think is incredibly unfair to these house guests.
[00:09:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I mean, in a significant way.
[00:09:08] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, like it definitely implies that something very serious went down with the Lisa thing that players have alluded to.
[00:09:17] [SPEAKER_03]: And now it feels like very clearly the producers do not feel like they can trust Angela to be on the feeds or talked about on the feeds.
[00:09:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Lest she do something that they would then have to take action on.
[00:09:33] [SPEAKER_03]: And if that is the case, what are we doing here?
[00:09:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Why aren't you taking action on it?
[00:09:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
[00:09:39] [SPEAKER_01]: It makes me feel like, OK, so clearly she's done something very bad that like is a an offense worthy of being kicked out of the house.
[00:09:52] [SPEAKER_01]: And like, I mean, I don't know.
[00:09:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[00:09:55] [SPEAKER_01]: But that's like, of course, where your mind is going to go.
[00:09:57] [SPEAKER_01]: It's just all of these unknowns make it really, I think, are also like very unfair to Angela if that's not the case of what's going on.
[00:10:07] [SPEAKER_01]: It's I'm wildly speculating right now because we have nothing to go off of.
[00:10:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Which is consistently why having the live feeds is a protection for the players against producer manipulation and edits and so on and so forth.
[00:10:23] [SPEAKER_03]: So, you know, like if Angela is doing heinous things and and and the beads are cutting, then that's still what's being assumed.
[00:10:34] [SPEAKER_03]: If she's not doing heinous things and the feeds are cutting, she certainly would like them to not be cutting.
[00:10:39] [SPEAKER_05]: Yes.
[00:10:40] [SPEAKER_03]: So, you know, it's it's and we also know that, you know, Big Brother producers certainly would have loved to have hit that cut feed button earlier last season before Luke said the thing.
[00:10:56] [SPEAKER_03]: So so I think they're just a little more jumpy on that button just in case.
[00:11:01] [SPEAKER_03]: And and why?
[00:11:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[00:11:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Like like what are we what are we trying to do here?
[00:11:06] [SPEAKER_03]: It's it's pretty ridiculous.
[00:11:08] [SPEAKER_01]: It is.
[00:11:09] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's not like.
[00:11:11] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, clearly, Angela was trying to defend her line of thinking to T-Core and Quinn and like I would have liked to hear it.
[00:11:21] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure the other people who are watching the feeds and watching the show would have liked to hear it.
[00:11:26] [SPEAKER_01]: And it is like it just is giving a disservice to everybody.
[00:11:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Like it's it's it sucks.
[00:11:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:11:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:11:35] [SPEAKER_03]: So I.
[00:11:38] [SPEAKER_03]: The feeds cut away.
[00:11:42] [SPEAKER_03]: We're hearing from some people that clearly some things are going on inside the house.
[00:11:47] [SPEAKER_03]: We're outside the house.
[00:11:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Eventually, T-Core comes out.
[00:11:51] [SPEAKER_03]: She's about to start explaining what's happening inside the house and her frustration with it.
[00:11:56] [SPEAKER_03]: And the feeds cut again.
[00:11:57] [SPEAKER_03]: And then they're just down for like two hours or something along those lines.
[00:12:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, yeah, because you can't show a conversation.
[00:12:05] [SPEAKER_01]: You can't have all four cams on a conversation if every single person in the house is talking about something specific.
[00:12:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[00:12:12] [SPEAKER_03]: We can't see what it is and we can't hear people talk about what it is because.
[00:12:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Because it's really like it really is such like a break of trust with your audience, too, because it makes me think like they're trying to hide something really, really bad.
[00:12:36] [SPEAKER_01]: And like it I said it already in this podcast, like if it's not that bad and they're just cutting because they're jumpy like that is so unfair to these house guests who now I am assuming like something really, really bad happened.
[00:12:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's it's it's it's again, like the idea also because I've heard this a lot.
[00:13:01] [SPEAKER_03]: The idea that it's, you know, due to fan reaction or due to like an attempt to protect people.
[00:13:08] [SPEAKER_03]: It just it.
[00:13:10] [SPEAKER_03]: My experience.
[00:13:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Being hovering around this industry would say absolutely not.
[00:13:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Big Brother and its live feeds again protects its contestants significantly more than any other reality show in existence.
[00:13:28] [SPEAKER_03]: The way that most reality shows deal with and exploit and just like utterly devastate their contestants, their subjects is atrocious.
[00:13:46] [SPEAKER_03]: And Big Brother is weirdly and I know this might sound weird if you're a Big Brother fan because, you know, so much.
[00:13:51] [SPEAKER_03]: But it's weirdly one of the best ones because of the live feeds, because producers can't do nearly as much heinous shit as other shows do.
[00:14:01] [SPEAKER_03]: And so the idea that like this is the fans fault or it's to protect its can the contestants is wildly off base.
[00:14:08] [SPEAKER_01]: It in my opinion, like I am wildly speculating, but this leads me to the conclusion that the producers don't want to mess up their schedule like their schedule was messed up last season.
[00:14:20] [SPEAKER_01]: And they are nervous that something will be on the feeds that will make them remove one of the house guests.
[00:14:28] [SPEAKER_01]: And wild speculation, right?
[00:14:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Because we have no answers.
[00:14:32] [SPEAKER_01]: We don't know why this is going on.
[00:14:34] [SPEAKER_01]: But.
[00:14:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:14:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, here's the thing.
[00:14:39] [SPEAKER_03]: We're basically not going to see Angela on the live feeds probably from now on.
[00:14:46] [SPEAKER_03]: It seems we're not really going to see any of her on the feeds yesterday.
[00:14:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Anytime anybody brings up Angela, the feeds cut.
[00:14:55] [SPEAKER_03]: So we don't know what is happening with Angela beyond the fact that she blew up on Quinn and pretty much everyone in the house now feels like they're all voting Angela out.
[00:15:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Everybody is pretty convinced and pretty on board.
[00:15:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Angela is the one that they plan to vote out if she does not win the veto.
[00:15:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Spoilers at this point, she had already not won the veto.
[00:15:22] [SPEAKER_03]: And and if she does not win the AI arena competition.
[00:15:26] [SPEAKER_03]: So Angela is the current target now.
[00:15:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:15:31] [SPEAKER_01]: The only clips that we get to see of Angela on the feeds is her sitting alone and eating an avocado looking sad.
[00:15:41] [SPEAKER_01]: And even like when some anybody in the house comes up to try to talk to her because they're obviously going to talk about what happened.
[00:15:50] [SPEAKER_01]: The feeds cut away.
[00:15:51] [SPEAKER_01]: So like all of the Angela content we got for the rest of the day was her like literally alone.
[00:15:59] [SPEAKER_03]: So.
[00:16:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's let's let's talk.
[00:16:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Let's talk a little bit about the veto competition because they did have a veto competition.
[00:16:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, now one thing to note going into the veto competition is that Kenny volunteered for the block and was basically saying, like, I don't really intend to win this.
[00:16:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, I don't it's like does not benefit me to win this.
[00:16:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, I'm happy to be sitting on the block.
[00:16:30] [SPEAKER_03]: That has been his M.O. from the beginning.
[00:16:33] [SPEAKER_03]: And so so there are some people looking to throw this competition, which leaves the door open a bit more for for people who really want to win to win.
[00:16:44] [SPEAKER_03]: And so that's why Kenny won the veto.
[00:16:49] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, wait, Taryn.
[00:16:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Do you mean that when he had an opportunity to do something in the game that would make him feel good?
[00:16:59] [SPEAKER_01]: He did it.
[00:17:01] [SPEAKER_01]: And suddenly he doesn't want to go home anymore.
[00:17:03] [SPEAKER_01]: And suddenly his head's in the game and he's feeling really good about it.
[00:17:07] [SPEAKER_01]: That's so weird how that works.
[00:17:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I don't know.
[00:17:11] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a man.
[00:17:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Was he riding high after that win to talking about the comp?
[00:17:16] [SPEAKER_00]: It's almost like when something good is happening for Kenny in the game, he's excited about the game.
[00:17:24] [SPEAKER_00]: And when something bad is happening for Kenny in the game, he's OK.
[00:17:28] [SPEAKER_01]: And he just wants to go home to his family.
[00:17:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
[00:17:33] [SPEAKER_01]: I, for one, am shocked by this revelation.
[00:17:37] [SPEAKER_01]: This is what I've been saying about Kenny this whole time.
[00:17:39] [SPEAKER_01]: He didn't want to go home.
[00:17:40] [SPEAKER_01]: He was just sad.
[00:17:42] [SPEAKER_01]: He was losing.
[00:17:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Come on.
[00:17:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:17:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:17:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:17:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, Kenny now has the veto.
[00:17:49] [SPEAKER_03]: And as of right now, plans to use the veto on himself.
[00:17:55] [SPEAKER_03]: And that means that Chelsea will have to replace him with somebody else.
[00:18:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Now, she does a bit of a funny thing, which is that.
[00:18:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Go ahead.
[00:18:08] [SPEAKER_01]: No, I just like we have to talk about this because somebody tweeted and was like,
[00:18:13] [SPEAKER_01]: is this going to be the trend in the house?
[00:18:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Like the person who wins the veto, I guess, just gets to go to the HOH and tell them who
[00:18:21] [SPEAKER_01]: the replacement nominee is.
[00:18:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, what is happening?
[00:18:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, so usually what you would do here, right, as the HOH.
[00:18:28] [SPEAKER_03]: And this has been kind of Chelsea's MO from the beginning is that she didn't want to do structured
[00:18:34] [SPEAKER_03]: one-on-ones.
[00:18:35] [SPEAKER_03]: I wasn't sure about that strategy to begin with.
[00:18:38] [SPEAKER_03]: I still kind of feel like, you know, maybe don't do structured one-on-ones, but at least
[00:18:43] [SPEAKER_03]: talk to more people.
[00:18:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Because I feel like she's really been sort of cornering herself in a specific area of
[00:18:51] [SPEAKER_03]: the house and talking to a specific group of people.
[00:18:55] [SPEAKER_03]: And the lack of communication with some others, I think, is hurting her.
[00:19:00] [SPEAKER_03]: But in addition to that, like one of the benefits of talking to more people as HOH is that you
[00:19:05] [SPEAKER_03]: get a lot of information.
[00:19:07] [SPEAKER_03]: And when you have nominations to come or you have a replacement nominee to make, you can ask
[00:19:13] [SPEAKER_03]: people like, what do you think I should do?
[00:19:16] [SPEAKER_03]: You know, like, help me out here.
[00:19:19] [SPEAKER_03]: And so in some ways, you can interpret what she does as that, but like really heavy-handed.
[00:19:28] [SPEAKER_03]: But like the thing is, it doesn't work if that's her intention, because it's way too heavy-handed.
[00:19:34] [SPEAKER_03]: And how it comes out is that she's just looking for somebody to make the decision for her,
[00:19:38] [SPEAKER_03]: because basically what happens is she goes to Kenny and she says, well, as the veto winner,
[00:19:46] [SPEAKER_03]: would you like to just tell me who I should put up on the block?
[00:19:50] [SPEAKER_01]: And Kenny is like, no, I don't want to do that.
[00:19:57] [SPEAKER_01]: I think maybe just don't touch Cedric, but it's all you, which good on you, Kenny.
[00:20:05] [SPEAKER_01]: It's almost like you do know what to do in the house.
[00:20:08] [SPEAKER_01]: And when things are going well, you can play big brother.
[00:20:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:20:12] [SPEAKER_03]: He's basically like, that's kind of your call.
[00:20:15] [SPEAKER_03]: No, it's kind of your decision to make.
[00:20:17] [SPEAKER_03]: She also asks Angela this, by the way, in that conversation where she's asking about the other stuff.
[00:20:24] [SPEAKER_03]: And she's like, do you have somebody that you think I should put up?
[00:20:29] [SPEAKER_03]: And Angela's like, no.
[00:20:31] [SPEAKER_03]: That's your call.
[00:20:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:20:34] [SPEAKER_01]: When you're on the block as a nominee, do not ever say a name.
[00:20:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Unless you're like, I'm going home unless this person is next to me and like, I'm going all in.
[00:20:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Do not ever say a name because all you're giving is the H.O.H.
[00:20:49] [SPEAKER_01]: ammo against you.
[00:20:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:20:51] [SPEAKER_03]: And usually it's pretty easy to squeeze a name out of someone.
[00:20:54] [SPEAKER_03]: But when you ask them so bluntly, like, can you tell me who to put up?
[00:20:59] [SPEAKER_03]: They're not.
[00:21:00] [SPEAKER_03]: It's way easier than be like, nah, no, no, no.
[00:21:03] [SPEAKER_01]: And I loved the way that Kenny skirted around it and was like, well, I'll tell you who.
[00:21:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Please don't touch.
[00:21:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, please don't do like put Cedric up.
[00:21:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, he reminds me of my son.
[00:21:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Please don't do that.
[00:21:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Because that is giving her a name, but it's giving her a name to protect.
[00:21:20] [SPEAKER_01]: And the only thing that she could take away from that conversation is like going to Cedric
[00:21:24] [SPEAKER_01]: and being like, Kenny loves you.
[00:21:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I'm not, you know.
[00:21:28] [SPEAKER_01]: So I thought that that was a good way to sort of skirt around the answer rather than give
[00:21:32] [SPEAKER_01]: people who you would like their game to be harmed or potentially over.
[00:21:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Give people who you would like their game to be safe.
[00:21:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:21:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:21:42] [SPEAKER_03]: So that's where Chelsea stands at the moment is that she is not sure who to put up.
[00:21:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Luckily for her, she has another volunteer.
[00:21:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Somebody who took quite the offense to being volunteered for last week is now perfectly happy
[00:22:01] [SPEAKER_03]: to actually do it.
[00:22:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Tucker.
[00:22:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Somewhere along the line, he talks about it.
[00:22:08] [SPEAKER_03]: But I don't think we saw it itself.
[00:22:12] [SPEAKER_03]: But Tucker has volunteered to go up on the block to help face off against Lisa in the AI arena
[00:22:21] [SPEAKER_03]: and, you know, sit in the spot.
[00:22:29] [SPEAKER_00]: So why do they do this?
[00:22:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Taryn, I would love to know what you think.
[00:22:40] [SPEAKER_01]: You are a true scholar of this game.
[00:22:44] [SPEAKER_01]: You have consumed more hours of Big Brother than I think maybe anyone in the world, even more than these producers.
[00:22:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Why do you think people do this?
[00:22:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Honestly.
[00:22:55] [SPEAKER_01]: When it's unprompted.
[00:22:55] [SPEAKER_03]: It's it's kind of it's it's especially hard because, again, I didn't see the initial like conversation of like how it came up.
[00:23:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Like for all like maybe Chelsea asked Tucker, like, can you tell me who to put up?
[00:23:11] [SPEAKER_03]: And his response was like, well, hmm.
[00:23:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, what about me?
[00:23:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Which would tell us a lot about like where the idea came from and how it came to him.
[00:23:21] [SPEAKER_03]: I would assume that part of this is because of what happened last week, where like last week Matt volunteered him for the block and he was like, well, obviously I would be down.
[00:23:36] [SPEAKER_03]: I do have that dog in me, but don't do that for me.
[00:23:40] [SPEAKER_03]: But then he was still pretending for Matt and and much of the house that he was willing to go on the block.
[00:23:46] [SPEAKER_03]: He was telling everyone he was he was pretending to Matt, I'm totally willing and telling everyone else I definitely would be willing if not for Matt volunteering me without my permission.
[00:23:57] [SPEAKER_03]: And so he spent like five, four days like like under that umbrella.
[00:24:05] [SPEAKER_03]: And so the idea is already in his head.
[00:24:07] [SPEAKER_03]: He's already told a lot of people he would be willing.
[00:24:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe then he's put in a spot where him volunteering would make some sense.
[00:24:14] [SPEAKER_03]: And he feels like, yeah, I should do it.
[00:24:17] [SPEAKER_03]: And also like he does, does, I think genuinely want to beat Lisa in a competition.
[00:24:21] [SPEAKER_01]: I was about to say, do you think a lot of this has to do like, is this giving BB eight?
[00:24:26] [SPEAKER_01]: What's his name?
[00:24:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Dustin.
[00:24:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
[00:24:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Is it giving like, I want to sit next to Lisa and be the one who gets.
[00:24:36] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[00:24:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, is that what's happening?
[00:24:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Which, I mean, God forbid we saw this conversation on feeds because it would have been a game conversation.
[00:24:45] [SPEAKER_01]: And that wasn't really what we were watching last night.
[00:24:50] [SPEAKER_01]: But I, cause I'm like, that would make at least a little more, like I could follow that line of thinking more than just like, yeah, sure.
[00:24:58] [SPEAKER_01]: I'll do it.
[00:24:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Whatever.
[00:24:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Like that is disappointing.
[00:25:01] [SPEAKER_01]: I was really into Tucker last week because of the fact that he was like, no way am I going to let myself be put up on the block as a pawn.
[00:25:12] [SPEAKER_01]: And I loved the conversation that you were having with Mary yesterday.
[00:25:15] [SPEAKER_01]: I thought it was brilliant and great strategy.
[00:25:17] [SPEAKER_01]: And if anybody is listening and you're going into the house next year, remember that.
[00:25:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Like I would steal that if I was playing big brother.
[00:25:24] [SPEAKER_01]: But I, it is really disappointing to hear him say, you know, to other people when he's explaining his decision too, like, well, you know, Chelsea and I really haven't gotten to talk that much.
[00:25:38] [SPEAKER_01]: So to make up for that to her, I volunteered to go on the block.
[00:25:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Like that logic is just not sound to me.
[00:25:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:25:51] [SPEAKER_03]: He has volunteered.
[00:25:53] [SPEAKER_03]: So, uh, the thing is though, we do not have confirmation from Chelsea that she's going to like accept his, uh, you know, volunteering.
[00:26:05] [SPEAKER_01]: We, we have no confirmation at all about what's going on in the game.
[00:26:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:26:11] [SPEAKER_03]: The feeds were down a lot.
[00:26:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Like six hours.
[00:26:15] [SPEAKER_01]: It was crazy.
[00:26:17] [SPEAKER_01]: I was like, oh, great.
[00:26:18] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going into this life feed update and have not heard one word from the HOH about what she's thinking about replacement noms.
[00:26:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, so hard to know exactly how things are going to go.
[00:26:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, worth noting that after winning the veto, Kenny talked to, uh, MJ and said, uh, and they talked about who might go up.
[00:26:38] [SPEAKER_03]: And he said to her, well, I think people think it's going to be you.
[00:26:43] [SPEAKER_03]: She said, what do you mean?
[00:26:45] [SPEAKER_03]: He said, I overheard some people talking.
[00:26:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, and he's talking about like T core and Quinn and a few other people and how they were saying that they thought that MJ might go up on the block.
[00:26:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, and she's like, well, I hope not.
[00:26:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Uh, I, I know that we're not really to this point in the night yet.
[00:27:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Like we haven't touched on it, but can we talk about MJ and her power and what she's doing with it?
[00:27:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, that let's, let's talk about, cause there's a whole MJ power plot line that has led to basically everyone in the house or most people in the house now knowing that she has the power.
[00:27:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Mm hmm.
[00:27:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, do you want to hold or do you want to let's do it?
[00:27:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's tell the story.
[00:27:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[00:27:27] [SPEAKER_01]: So basically everybody knows like MJ has started to open up and tell everybody that she has the power.
[00:27:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Like Tucker knows at this point, um,
[00:27:40] [SPEAKER_03]: She told Brooklyn earlier in the day, Tucker questioned her about it.
[00:27:43] [SPEAKER_03]: And she basically admitted it to Tucker and didn't tell the details of the power, but then Tucker then knew.
[00:27:50] [SPEAKER_03]: And then Tucker was telling more people.
[00:27:51] [SPEAKER_03]: And so it's spreading around.
[00:27:53] [SPEAKER_01]: And I have to say, usually in big brother or like any of these games, if you have an advantage, do not tell people like, keep it to yourself.
[00:28:06] [SPEAKER_01]: However, the way that McKenzie has sort of positioned this power is that it's kind of like an immunity idol because of the unknown of the America putting up a veto.
[00:28:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Like the replacement nominee.
[00:28:27] [SPEAKER_01]: People don't want to risk that.
[00:28:29] [SPEAKER_01]: So if, if the device of the power was that she got to take herself down and she got to name the replacement, I think that they would flush it this week.
[00:28:37] [SPEAKER_01]: And they would be like, no matter who MJ puts up, like we're voting out Angela, this is, or Angela or Lisa, like this is that, or that's that.
[00:28:46] [SPEAKER_01]: But because of the unknown, it gives this, it instills this fear in everybody about touching her and having that power be used.
[00:28:58] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's really, really helping her and her telling people, I actually feel like it's very good for her game.
[00:29:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:29:07] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it's, it, it, you're right.
[00:29:09] [SPEAKER_03]: It is basically, and again, we dunked on the power because it's so much weaker than Quinn's in the sense that Quinn gets to just have an HOH week basically.
[00:29:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, and, uh, but it's still a very good power in the sense that, yeah, it's basically a four week God immunity idol, uh, where in survivor, when you have an immunity, you need to predict when the votes are coming on you and then use it in advance.
[00:29:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, McKenzie is just guaranteed safe.
[00:29:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Anytime somebody tries to take her out.
[00:29:47] [SPEAKER_03]: And again, unlike survivor where it's like, well, a majority of people need to cast their votes on you.
[00:29:53] [SPEAKER_03]: And with a God idol, you get to play it after the votes are read.
[00:29:56] [SPEAKER_03]: So, you know, you need to use it.
[00:29:58] [SPEAKER_03]: You still have a majority of people against you and they all get to have been in the majority going against you.
[00:30:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Whereas in big brother, MJ gets to look at the individual person who decided to put her on the blog and go,
[00:30:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Nope, I get to not be on the block.
[00:30:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, and now that individual person is, has just started a feud with somebody that they knew they weren't going to be able to get out anyway.
[00:30:25] [SPEAKER_03]: And then in addition to that, take away their power, uh, and, and their control over their own week and put it in the hands of America.
[00:30:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, it's by telling people about this power.
[00:30:36] [SPEAKER_03]: MJ has protected herself for four weeks, or at least she should be protected for four weeks.
[00:30:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Now I cannot fully credit her for doing this because I do believe it was accidental.
[00:30:51] [SPEAKER_03]: I think that she basically had every intention of like sort of hiding the power a bit more.
[00:30:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, and I don't think she recognized that this was a great deterrent that this should actively be using.
[00:31:01] [SPEAKER_01]: I do think she has recognized it now.
[00:31:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes. Um, and, and in some ways I think that, uh, that she, uh, she is currently utilizing it in the correct way.
[00:31:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, having recognized where this is.
[00:31:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, and, and in some ways as well, I think the fact that she wasn't actively trying to use it as a deterrent helped sell it as a deterrent even more.
[00:31:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:31:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, this idea that like, I didn't, I don't want to tell you about this, but this is my power and letting them think about all of the bad things instead of being like, you don't want to put me on the block.
[00:31:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Cause this is what's going to happen.
[00:31:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Like what Matt did.
[00:31:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, and also people would, and also people would see that more as a challenge against them and their power versus.
[00:31:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, and I also think that it is, this is why like you don't want players like Angela playing big brother with you, because I said this the last week on the round table or, um, I, I said it at one point last week that like Angela is really unpredictable.
[00:32:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, and you never know where she's going to go.
[00:32:10] [SPEAKER_01]: And like, she switches up on her allies so quickly that like, I do actually think that if Angela was the HOH and knew about McKenzie's power and, and knew that like America had the chance to put someone up because she was safe.
[00:32:24] [SPEAKER_01]: She'd be like, well, whatever America can decide, you know, like she's somebody who wouldn't care because she doesn't deeply care about her allies.
[00:32:32] [SPEAKER_01]: But someone like Chelsea is really wanting to keep her numbers and does not want to put any of her allies in a vulnerable position, I guess.
[00:32:40] [SPEAKER_01]: But also like yesterday, she maybe almost put Kim or Cedric up on the block, but that's beside the point.
[00:32:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, so I think that because of the layer of unknown, because she is not threatening them with the power it's become in this house, this sort of like really looming large thing that everybody has to work around.
[00:33:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Mm hmm.
[00:33:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm hmm.
[00:33:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
[00:33:05] [SPEAKER_03]: So that's kind of what's happening there.
[00:33:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Now, uh, another thing with MJ is that she is probably pushing the hardest right now to, uh, to get the women, specifically the women of the barbershop, uh, to be working together.
[00:33:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, and, and, and this is, uh, this is her Leah Brooklyn, uh, Rubina, uh, basically that, uh, and Chelsea, of course.
[00:33:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, so like that group of people, uh, which I, I think is like, uh, again, you know, the barbershop is the barbershop and she should honestly probably just drop the barbershop angle, uh, and just focus on the women angle, because I think that would play a lot better.
[00:33:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, but, uh, but she, I mean, she's doing what she needs to do, I think, to work her way back into the house.
[00:34:00] [SPEAKER_03]: It's slow going, but with the safety that she now has and the protection of the, uh, of the HOH right now and all of that, like she's got some time and, and she's making some inroads here.
[00:34:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes. This has bought her time, which is what she really does need because I see people in the chat saying women's alliances never work.
[00:34:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. When you're like all of the women gather, let's do this thing. Like the way that alliances really work is when people have relationships, have bonds, trust each other, and then come together.
[00:34:36] [SPEAKER_01]: And I do think I have always said that a woman's alliance, 1000% could work in big brother. If it happens mid game, like that is something that is the missing chip in the women's alliances, because it needs to be the right group of women.
[00:34:52] [SPEAKER_01]: It needs to be women who have bonded naturally and then decide to come together versus the first week being like, let's all gather. If you are female identifying, like, let's go because you need the right mix of people.
[00:35:07] [SPEAKER_01]: And because Mackenzie has bought herself essentially the two more weeks of time after this week, she maybe could piecemeal something together that would last.
[00:35:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Mm hmm. So we'll, we'll see where this goes. There's a world where this develops into something and, you know, and Chelsea kind of goes with them because Chelsea's kind of backing away from cam.
[00:35:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, and but then, but then if cam is attached to it's just it's such a complicated mess of strategic structure, uh, that it's hard to really, uh, suss out exactly where things are going to land. But, uh, yeah,
[00:35:47] [SPEAKER_01]: it's like so weirdly fluid. Um, and I am a little scared for you for the rest of the season, Taryn, because these seasons are really these fluid seasons are very fun.
[00:36:00] [SPEAKER_01]: But they're so complicated and hard to keep track of like, it's giving a little BB can nine. It's giving a little, um, BB can six, like just everyone is kind of connected to everybody, but then there are little pockets, but then there's, I, I, I think that it's really bizarre that we're almost two weeks into the season and nothing has settled and like really, really solidified.
[00:36:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. Uh, we'll see, we'll see where it goes. Um, so, uh, there's another plot line that is continuing today and that is, uh, Leah and cam.
[00:36:39] [SPEAKER_03]: So, uh, cam was supposedly warned about this, uh, earlier in the day. Um, and yet he's, he's very publicly flirting with Leah once more.
[00:36:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, he has a funny conversation with her in the bathroom, uh, where he gives basically his own version of like Quinn's strategic pep talk to her, uh, except his version.
[00:37:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Instead of being like, uh, this is why you're in trouble. This is what we're going to do to fix it. Let's work together. His strategic pep talk was, uh, you'll be fine. You'll be fine for like some weeks.
[00:37:23] [SPEAKER_03]: And yeah, weeks. I think, I mean, it will depend on who wins HOH. Like it could be less, but like, you know, some weeks.
[00:37:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. And he's talking to Leah and she's not somebody who's just like, Oh, okay. She was like, what do you mean? I'm concerned.
[00:37:43] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, you'll like be as long as you win something in that time, people will come to you and everything will be fine. And you're, you're winning things. You're coming close.
[00:37:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, my favorite part about cam, like you said, supposedly being warned. Like I personally think he was obviously warned because he's doing what he wants to do.
[00:38:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Because at this point, if you've been watching big brother for any amount of time, you know, that when it comes to physical attraction, like people are going to do what they want to do, no matter what, no matter how much you warn somebody, like they're going to do what they want to do.
[00:38:15] [SPEAKER_01]: But he's doing that thing that like, we saw Corey try to do last year. Like everybody who really is trying to play big brother, but also has a thing for somebody will still be publicly flirting, still be continuing the relationship, but going to other people and being like, you don't think that I'm like too connected to Leah, right?
[00:38:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Like you don't think that right? I don't I got it. I'm good. Like you don't have to worry about that. I heard rumblings. Nobody has to worry. And it's one of those like the lady doth protest too much situations.
[00:38:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. And and so they have that conversation. They then continue to be very flirty through the night. And Chelsea, of course, is going to see it. She's not happy about it. She tells more people about how they're worse than Matt and Mackenzie.
[00:39:13] [SPEAKER_03]: And and and other people are like, oh, Chelsea's like, oh, boy.
[00:39:18] [SPEAKER_03]: And and of course, that's music to Quinn's ears, who is also seeing this and being like, like, yeah, that's fine.
[00:39:25] [SPEAKER_03]: It's fine. Cam's got to go, but it's fine.
[00:39:30] [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, Quinn.
[00:39:34] [SPEAKER_03]: So.
[00:39:35] [SPEAKER_03]: So.
[00:39:37] [SPEAKER_03]: This all kind of leads toward late into the night, the the biggest sort of strategic conversation we're allowed to hear is with Quinty core and chemo.
[00:39:50] [SPEAKER_03]: They've been flirting around with this idea of being like a final three.
[00:39:54] [SPEAKER_03]: And so they're they're they're really locking in here.
[00:39:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Love this group.
[00:39:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Love them.
[00:40:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I'm really excited about it.
[00:40:06] [SPEAKER_03]: So I.
[00:40:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Basically, what happens is that they're talking about, like, how everyone's going to work with us, you know, everyone's coming to us with offers, you know, a little Matt like perhaps.
[00:40:20] [SPEAKER_03]: But but but but this time it's true.
[00:40:24] [SPEAKER_03]: And they they lock in their final three.
[00:40:26] [SPEAKER_03]: And Quinn says, are we locking this?
[00:40:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, is this is this it?
[00:40:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
[00:40:30] [SPEAKER_03]: He says, OK.
[00:40:32] [SPEAKER_03]: With that in mind.
[00:40:33] [SPEAKER_03]: I have some things to tell you.
[00:40:37] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm in an alliance with Cam, Cedric, Chelsea and Brooklyn.
[00:40:44] [SPEAKER_03]: And he tells the story of how this alliance was pitched to him.
[00:40:50] [SPEAKER_03]: He's always been skeptical of Cedric.
[00:40:53] [SPEAKER_03]: And so at one point, Cam comes up to him and says, how do you feel about Cedric?
[00:40:58] [SPEAKER_03]: And he was like, I don't know.
[00:40:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I really like him.
[00:41:01] [SPEAKER_03]: But like, I'm not sure where his head is at.
[00:41:03] [SPEAKER_03]: And then Cam brings him into a room with Cedric waiting.
[00:41:07] [SPEAKER_03]: And he's like, oh, hey.
[00:41:10] [SPEAKER_03]: And then and then they tell him.
[00:41:12] [SPEAKER_03]: So.
[00:41:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Chelsea and like Chelsea, Cam and Cedric, we have been talking about wanting to make an alliance and we want you to be in it.
[00:41:24] [SPEAKER_03]: He was like, sure.
[00:41:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Sure.
[00:41:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, totally.
[00:41:27] [SPEAKER_03]: I would absolutely accept that invitation to your alliance that you have made for personal alliance.
[00:41:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Sounds great to me.
[00:41:34] [SPEAKER_03]: I love this idea.
[00:41:35] [SPEAKER_03]: And they're like, no, no, no.
[00:41:36] [SPEAKER_03]: There's a fifth, too.
[00:41:37] [SPEAKER_03]: We're not going to tell you who yet.
[00:41:39] [SPEAKER_03]: But but there's also going to be a fit.
[00:41:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Makes you feel super great about the seriousness of this alliance and how would you trust me that you won't even tell me who the fifth member is.
[00:41:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[00:41:51] [SPEAKER_03]: So given this retelling, assuming it is mostly true, fairly obvious to see why Quinn was never super invested in the Pentagon.
[00:42:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Fairly obvious to see why he was able to recognize that maybe Cam, Cedric and Chelsea are the core of the Pentagon.
[00:42:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:42:13] [SPEAKER_01]: And why he felt comfortable connecting with Brooklyn and being like, they wouldn't.
[00:42:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, this isn't this isn't right.
[00:42:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[00:42:22] [SPEAKER_03]: So I very, very funny stuff there.
[00:42:26] [SPEAKER_03]: T-Core is like, oh, I'm really glad that you told me about this.
[00:42:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, I always kind of thought I was on the bottom of what they had going on.
[00:42:34] [SPEAKER_03]: And now I know.
[00:42:37] [SPEAKER_03]: And and so they start talking more about like, well, what should we do?
[00:42:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Who should we bring in?
[00:42:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Like and they talk.
[00:42:44] [SPEAKER_03]: They've been talking a lot about Cam.
[00:42:47] [SPEAKER_03]: And and so they they bring up Cam and Quinn is like, I feel like I can't bring Cam into any more thing because we've also got that have not thing.
[00:42:59] [SPEAKER_03]: And Kimo and and Kimo is like, oh, yeah, that that thing that it's I mean, is that even real?
[00:43:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Is that even real, Quinn?
[00:43:09] [SPEAKER_03]: What do we even call it?
[00:43:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Like the Andersons or whatever?
[00:43:12] [SPEAKER_03]: And Quinn's like, yeah, sorry.
[00:43:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Sorry, Kimo.
[00:43:14] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm blowing us up here.
[00:43:15] [SPEAKER_03]: But like, yeah, there's like a have not thing, too.
[00:43:19] [SPEAKER_03]: It's, you know, obviously it's me and Tucker and Cam and Kimo.
[00:43:25] [SPEAKER_03]: And so like I'm already in multiple things with Cam.
[00:43:28] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like looking at Cam like, oh, look, we're in another thing.
[00:43:31] [SPEAKER_03]: So I probably shouldn't be in any more things with Cam.
[00:43:36] [SPEAKER_03]: And and so it's it's all all out in the open here.
[00:43:40] [SPEAKER_03]: It's the Quinn is just dumping all the info.
[00:43:43] [SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, I do think that that is important when you have your main alliance.
[00:43:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Like I remember.
[00:43:54] [SPEAKER_01]: I think it was Tyler who on the BB 22 feeds, he said that he knew level six was real because when they all got together, they all started just sharing everything that they knew and like truly brain dumping and being open.
[00:44:08] [SPEAKER_01]: And he was like, OK, then this is the real thing because everybody nobody's holding back.
[00:44:12] [SPEAKER_01]: So I do think that that is important.
[00:44:18] [SPEAKER_01]: I I think maybe, you know, not immediately after you're like, this is the group.
[00:44:26] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to tell you everything.
[00:44:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Like maybe then you can go away, talk, talk it over with chemo and be like, I really think this is the group and we should get together and have like a you know, I think that there is some nuance to it.
[00:44:41] [SPEAKER_01]: And Quinn has shown that his mouth is a little big.
[00:44:46] [SPEAKER_01]: So it was it was spilling everything.
[00:44:49] [SPEAKER_01]: And we'll see where that goes.
[00:44:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:44:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Quinn's a little loosey goosey with the information.
[00:44:57] [SPEAKER_03]: He really he loves to tell people things.
[00:45:01] [SPEAKER_03]: And so, you know, it hasn't quite come back to bite him yet.
[00:45:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Certainly seemed like it would have given the Angela blow up.
[00:45:11] [SPEAKER_03]: She did not apparently reveal that he has the power despite the blow up.
[00:45:15] [SPEAKER_03]: So he is still somehow clear of that.
[00:45:18] [SPEAKER_03]: But but this I mean, it's really it's there's a lot of disks spinning in the air right now for Quinn in terms of the amount of information he has let loose in various places.
[00:45:30] [SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, this this is like the alliance that he is seemingly going all in on along with the Leah thing.
[00:45:41] [SPEAKER_03]: But and for what it's worth, I do think that revealing the Pentagon specifically to T-Core is really valuable because T-Core said straight up like that's really good for me to know because she has been, you know, kind of pulled in by some of these people and didn't know that they had other things going on.
[00:46:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Now, that could be a good thing because it could, you know, keep her in with chemo and Quinn.
[00:46:06] [SPEAKER_03]: It could also be a bad thing because it now lets her know how she needs to get in with those people more if she needs.
[00:46:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that's the danger of revealing this kind of information.
[00:46:15] [SPEAKER_03]: And this is what this is where I really feel like, you know, if we're talking about Quinn, we're talking about like the stuff that he is doing.
[00:46:23] [SPEAKER_03]: A lot of people are talking about the revealing of information, which I do think is is very risky.
[00:46:29] [SPEAKER_03]: But the actual thing that I think Quinn has really dropped the ball on is that he just hasn't talked to Chelsea much.
[00:46:39] [SPEAKER_03]: And he even says so in this conversation.
[00:46:41] [SPEAKER_03]: But like he has been dropping the ball on the Pentagon relationships in general.
[00:46:48] [SPEAKER_03]: And I think it's because he's like positioning himself to take a shot at now Cam instead of Cedric.
[00:46:55] [SPEAKER_03]: And you could certainly tie that all back to Leah if you want.
[00:46:58] [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm fine if you do.
[00:47:00] [SPEAKER_03]: But I think like strategically, the thing that he is doing the wrong, the most wrong is that he is.
[00:47:07] [SPEAKER_03]: They have not gotten together as a have not alliance.
[00:47:11] [SPEAKER_03]: They have not gotten together as a Pentagon alliance.
[00:47:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Quinn has been has been like kind of just letting those relationships and strategic alliances float around.
[00:47:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Untended.
[00:47:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Untended.
[00:47:22] [SPEAKER_03]: And I think that's very dangerous for him, because if you are going to play this kind of game where you have your fingers in all of these different pots, like, you know, like certain house guests who put their fingers and things.
[00:47:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Then then you need to be actively maintaining all of those things because you can't just leave it be.
[00:47:45] [SPEAKER_03]: You can't just like once you start it, you can't just ignore it.
[00:47:49] [SPEAKER_03]: It has to be tended.
[00:47:51] [SPEAKER_01]: You said this.
[00:47:52] [SPEAKER_01]: You've said this before.
[00:47:53] [SPEAKER_01]: It is an exhausting game to play.
[00:47:56] [SPEAKER_01]: It is a really hard game to play to have your fingers and all of those pots.
[00:48:03] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a lot.
[00:48:06] [SPEAKER_01]: But that when those types of players.
[00:48:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Drop the ball, that's when you see their game start to crumble.
[00:48:15] [SPEAKER_01]: And I think that you're right.
[00:48:18] [SPEAKER_01]: I also think that it's important to point out that like Quinn obviously has, you know, a little bit of resentment against the Pentagon for very clearly being on the bottom.
[00:48:30] [SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, maybe he has resentment towards Kim because of the Leah, like whatever.
[00:48:35] [SPEAKER_01]: But like just because you are able to recognize that you're on the bottom and you might be upset about that, that is the time to suck up more.
[00:48:46] [SPEAKER_01]: That is the time to push harder rather than be like, well, screw you guys.
[00:48:50] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't even want to work with you.
[00:48:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Let me go and find somebody else.
[00:48:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Like still be looking around and finding other people, but keep those relationships as strong as you possibly can so that you at least have something to work with.
[00:49:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:49:08] [SPEAKER_03]: So they they talk a lot more.
[00:49:12] [SPEAKER_03]: This is actually was toward the end of the conversation that they talk more about the alliances, but they were also talking about T-Core had talked to Lisa earlier and had given Lisa a bit of a pep talk.
[00:49:23] [SPEAKER_03]: And Lisa was kind of like, T-Core, why do people not like me?
[00:49:30] [SPEAKER_03]: And and, you know, the answer is like, like, don't be don't be spreading glitter everywhere and putting oil on people's pillows.
[00:49:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Like that's probably not the best start.
[00:49:42] [SPEAKER_03]: But but they had a conversation.
[00:49:44] [SPEAKER_03]: T-Core felt like she was able to bond with Lisa some.
[00:49:46] [SPEAKER_03]: And she's like, well, Lisa kind of wants to work with me, but like nobody likes Lisa.
[00:49:50] [SPEAKER_03]: So what do I do there?
[00:49:51] [SPEAKER_03]: And especially now that they feel like Lisa is going to stay this week because Angela is now the target.
[00:49:57] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, well, what do we do with Lisa now that she's not the target anymore?
[00:50:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Should we do something with that?
[00:50:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Should we work with her in some capacity?
[00:50:06] [SPEAKER_03]: They have to talk about that.
[00:50:08] [SPEAKER_03]: They also talk about specifically Cam and Tucker.
[00:50:12] [SPEAKER_03]: So especially after knowing about the have not thing, T-Core is really concerned about the two of them working together.
[00:50:20] [SPEAKER_03]: She does not want bros teaming up, winning all the comps.
[00:50:25] [SPEAKER_03]: So it would be great.
[00:50:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Stay at T-Core.
[00:50:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[00:50:28] [SPEAKER_03]: It'd be great if they could get one of them out.
[00:50:31] [SPEAKER_03]: And Quinn is like, exactly.
[00:50:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Cam needs to go.
[00:50:36] [SPEAKER_03]: And T-Core is like, well, I mean, why not Tucker?
[00:50:39] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, well, well, the thing is, if we get rid of Cam, we get Leah.
[00:50:47] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, does that matter?
[00:50:49] [SPEAKER_01]: And also, like, sounds like Tucker is going to be on the block this week.
[00:50:53] [SPEAKER_05]: Exactly.
[00:50:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Cam's not going to be on the block this week.
[00:50:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Why would we waste an HOH on someone like Angela?
[00:51:01] [SPEAKER_01]: But I still maintain somebody like Angela you can't play with.
[00:51:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, if I was in the house, I'd be like, we have to get her out.
[00:51:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Even with the bros, like, you can at least work with one of them and ride them to the final two.
[00:51:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, somebody like Angela is so unpredictable that it's just very, in my personal opinion.
[00:51:20] [SPEAKER_01]: If I was in there, that's what I would probably think.
[00:51:22] [SPEAKER_01]: But I do like this line of thinking from T-Core.
[00:51:26] [SPEAKER_01]: I think she's got the spirit.
[00:51:28] [SPEAKER_01]: She's got the right idea.
[00:51:30] [SPEAKER_01]: And if they went after Tucker this week, if that was what was decided, I wouldn't be mad about it.
[00:51:38] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I would be sad because Tucker, I think, is bringing a lot of fun to the feeds.
[00:51:42] [SPEAKER_01]: But I think that strategically for her, that would make a lot of sense.
[00:51:47] [SPEAKER_03]: And it is brought up.
[00:51:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Like, Tucker's on the block at the end of the week.
[00:51:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Should we vote him out?
[00:51:53] [SPEAKER_03]: And they mostly say no.
[00:51:55] [SPEAKER_03]: They can't really keep Angela in the game.
[00:51:58] [SPEAKER_03]: They wouldn't.
[00:51:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe do this.
[00:51:59] [SPEAKER_03]: But yes, it is.
[00:52:01] [SPEAKER_03]: There's a long way to go.
[00:52:03] [SPEAKER_03]: And funny enough, the two people they're talking about potentially taking a shot at
[00:52:06] [SPEAKER_03]: are probably the two top contenders for the replacement nominee.
[00:52:10] [SPEAKER_03]: So, you know, we'll see.
[00:52:14] [SPEAKER_03]: We'll see where things go there.
[00:52:17] [SPEAKER_03]: Quinn mentions a few times.
[00:52:20] [SPEAKER_03]: If Cam gets sniped out of the game, you know, well, if somehow Cam gets sniped out of the game,
[00:52:28] [SPEAKER_03]: if Cam left, implying to me that he is now looking to maybe use his power to take Cam out of the game
[00:52:37] [SPEAKER_03]: in future weeks.
[00:52:39] [SPEAKER_03]: And then that would give them Leah.
[00:52:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:52:43] [SPEAKER_03]: And so we will see how that goes.
[00:52:47] [SPEAKER_03]: But but this again is like Quinn's seeming like plot to bring together the people he wants to work with
[00:52:59] [SPEAKER_03]: and trying to make Leo work could certainly put him in a bad spot, I think.
[00:53:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:53:11] [SPEAKER_01]: You have to in a situation like this, you have to wonder.
[00:53:16] [SPEAKER_01]: And I I want to maybe see a little bit more.
[00:53:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I feel like maybe if the feeds had actually been on the whole time yesterday,
[00:53:23] [SPEAKER_01]: I could speak a little bit more concretely about this.
[00:53:26] [SPEAKER_01]: But you have to wonder if this desire to get Cam out is more an emotional one.
[00:53:35] [SPEAKER_01]: And what exactly that means and what exactly the game ramifications are in that scenario.
[00:53:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Mm hmm.
[00:53:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
[00:53:44] [SPEAKER_03]: So so, you know, we'll see.
[00:53:46] [SPEAKER_03]: I think there's certainly a lot of time in the week in terms of like what might happen
[00:53:54] [SPEAKER_03]: and plenty more for like us to find out about like Quinn's true motivations here,
[00:54:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Chelsea's motivations and what whether she's like what she's going to do with her replacement nominee.
[00:54:07] [SPEAKER_03]: As of right now, again, it just feels like Angela is the likely target here.
[00:54:12] [SPEAKER_03]: They do later talk to or they do talk to Joseph as well.
[00:54:17] [SPEAKER_03]: It was mentioned in the conversation between Quinty Court and chemo that they don't really need to lock in with Joseph too much
[00:54:24] [SPEAKER_03]: because he's already pretty invested in the collective.
[00:54:27] [SPEAKER_03]: And they have this funny moment where Joseph comes out and joins them in the backyard.
[00:54:31] [SPEAKER_03]: And Quinn's like, so if Angela leaves, the collective like has new life.
[00:54:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[00:54:36] [SPEAKER_03]: And the feeds cut because they're talking about Angela.
[00:54:37] [SPEAKER_03]: But there was there was a little bit of a trio suggested with with chemo, Quinn and and and Joseph that that Quinn kind of jokingly suggested the crowboys name for.
[00:54:57] [SPEAKER_03]: So, you know, basically, Joseph still in this position where he's just lost so much social capital that a lot of people are looking at him as a potential number because he's still associated with a lot of those same people.
[00:55:09] [SPEAKER_03]: He's still a target for like the MJ side of things.
[00:55:13] [SPEAKER_03]: And but nobody feels the need to like really lock him in right now, which I think is a mistake.
[00:55:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Quite honestly, I think that he's he's looking he's desperate for anything to be locking him into.
[00:55:25] [SPEAKER_03]: And and and I think it would be valuable if they did.
[00:55:28] [SPEAKER_03]: But we'll see.
[00:55:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm I'm also interested to watch how I out of everybody.
[00:55:37] [SPEAKER_01]: I think T-Core is showing a lot of promise over the past couple of days.
[00:55:42] [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm also really interested in chemo and what chemo is up to, because chemo is really doing like talk less, smile more right now.
[00:55:54] [SPEAKER_01]: And I think that that you mentioned, like you think that that was what got him into trouble and on the block in the first week is that he wasn't really giving much and just trying to like rely on his likability.
[00:56:07] [SPEAKER_01]: And that now has turned into some fruitful relationships.
[00:56:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, he's talking a lot more strategy now, which I think is the key.
[00:56:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
[00:56:17] [SPEAKER_01]: And I am interested to see if he is going to be able to navigate that into action, you know, like strategic action rather than just talking and being like, let's do that.
[00:56:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, let's solidify, like getting into things.
[00:56:32] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm wondering if he how he plans on moving what he would like to have happen forward.
[00:56:39] Mm hmm.
[00:56:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it right now, it feels like, you know, if it's funny because like very beginning of the feeds, it was like it's Angela versus Matt.
[00:56:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[00:56:49] [SPEAKER_03]: But then it quickly kind of turned into the three C's versus kind of like Quinn to some degree.
[00:56:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, but now both of those are kind of falling apart.
[00:57:00] [SPEAKER_03]: And now it's kind of looking to me like it's T core and chemo versus like Brooklyn and Rubina to some degree.
[00:57:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, yeah, which I was going to bring up because we haven't talked about Rubina at all.
[00:57:15] [SPEAKER_01]: And we talked very briefly about Brooklyn, but I really like what they're doing.
[00:57:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, I like where they're at.
[00:57:22] [SPEAKER_01]: I think, you know, right now they're both in a position where they haven't wielded any power.
[00:57:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Uh, so that sort of is having them on the back foot, but I like their positioning.
[00:57:34] [SPEAKER_01]: I think that they're both really smart.
[00:57:36] [SPEAKER_01]: They have really good instincts.
[00:57:38] [SPEAKER_01]: And I, I think that they're if what MJ is trying to make happen with the women and all like, I think that they're definitely two people to watch.
[00:57:48] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm really interested in what is going to go on with them moving forward.
[00:57:52] [SPEAKER_03]: I think Brooklyn has the potential to be the most dangerous player in the game.
[00:57:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, she just hasn't like activated yet, uh, to like actively build a power base, which normally would be a very bad thing.
[00:58:07] [SPEAKER_03]: But in this house, it's fine because nobody else has been able to lock anything in either.
[00:58:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, so to me, the question remains like, will she be able to lock in and create a power base at some point?
[00:58:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Because she's positioned to if she wants to.
[00:58:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, it's just a matter of when, where and how basically.
[00:58:26] [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like Brooklyn is one of those types of players who has enough.
[00:58:34] [SPEAKER_01]: So one of the types of people who has enough social capital that is going to be somebody who makes a mid game power base and runs with it.
[00:58:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Like very Andy Heron, where she's in all of these different things.
[00:58:47] [SPEAKER_01]: And when the time comes, she will be able to, I mean, I have no idea if she's going to be able to,
[00:58:53] [SPEAKER_01]: but predicting the future and like what I hope to see her do is keep up all of these social relationships,
[00:59:00] [SPEAKER_01]: stay sort of fluid enough to the point where she can figure out exactly who she wants in her power base and make it happen.
[00:59:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Mm hmm.
[00:59:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:59:10] [SPEAKER_03]: So keep an eye on Brooklyn.
[00:59:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, but, but as of right now, she's definitely just, uh, kind of still just existing in these spaces and,
[00:59:21] [SPEAKER_03]: and actively playing them well, uh, just hasn't made any significant movement yet, uh, on her own.
[00:59:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Um, so we'll see, we'll see where that goes, but, uh, that's about what we have here today.
[00:59:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Maggie, anything else that you want to bring up?
[00:59:37] [SPEAKER_01]: No.
[00:59:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, just like the last thought about Brooklyn is, um, I can't tell if she's one of the types of players
[00:59:45] [SPEAKER_01]: who will really need a buddy in her strategic maneuvering, like what would really, really benefit
[00:59:52] [SPEAKER_01]: from somebody who is a little more aggressive strategically, or if she's going to be able to
[00:59:58] [SPEAKER_01]: turn that on.
[00:59:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, and I guess that will remain to be seen.
[01:00:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, it will.
[01:00:03] [SPEAKER_03]: All right.
[01:00:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, that's what we have for you then.
[01:00:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Thank you so much for joining us here today.
[01:00:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Of course, I'll be back tomorrow morning at 11 a.m.
[01:00:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Eastern to update you on everything that happens today on the big brother 26 live feeds.
[01:00:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Hopefully we will, uh, get some kind of sense of, uh, you know, what's going to happen.
[01:00:20] [SPEAKER_03]: The feeds will be actively on for a little while.
[01:00:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, one more, one more thing about, uh, about Brooklyn actually, uh, and, and Quinn.
[01:00:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh yeah.
[01:00:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, is that, uh, I did, I did tweet this out earlier, but, uh, turns out Brooklyn and Quinn
[01:00:35] [SPEAKER_03]: share more than just an alliance.
[01:00:37] [SPEAKER_03]: They also share a podcast.
[01:00:41] [SPEAKER_04]: She watches the same podcasts I watch and that's some nerdy shit.
[01:00:46] [SPEAKER_04]: Like that's crazy.
[01:00:48] [SPEAKER_04]: When she revealed that she watches and this isn't a good podcast name, I apologize.
[01:00:54] [SPEAKER_04]: And she was like, yeah, I watch Rob has a podcast.
[01:00:57] [SPEAKER_04]: And I was like, Oh, that's deep.
[01:01:02] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[01:01:05] [SPEAKER_01]: I look number one.
[01:01:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
[01:01:09] [SPEAKER_01]: When you tell, when I am in the world and I say, Oh yeah, I work for a podcast network.
[01:01:14] [SPEAKER_01]: And people say, what's the name of the network?
[01:01:16] [SPEAKER_01]: I always say R H a P, you know, because saying Rob has a podcast.
[01:01:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Then don't they ask you what, what it stands for?
[01:01:24] [SPEAKER_01]: No, usually they're because they don't, you know, they're, I feel like in most people's
[01:01:31] [SPEAKER_01]: heads, when I say like, yeah, I podcast, they're thinking it's like me alone in my room, like
[01:01:36] [SPEAKER_01]: talking into a mic and just putting it out into the ether.
[01:01:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Like they don't know that it's a community.
[01:01:40] [SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, it's like something like people who aren't into reality TV or don't understand
[01:01:44] [SPEAKER_01]: what this is, are there.
[01:01:46] [SPEAKER_01]: It's usually like, Oh, that's cool.
[01:01:48] [SPEAKER_01]: And then they move along.
[01:01:51] [SPEAKER_01]: But the, yes, of course, it's very confusing when you're like, Rob has a podcast and people
[01:01:56] [SPEAKER_01]: are like, who is Rob?
[01:01:57] [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, well, I mostly cover big brother where I podcast with this guy named Taryn.
[01:02:01] [SPEAKER_01]: And they're like, I thought it was Rob has a podcast.
[01:02:03] [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, well, yes, but Taryn covers big brother.
[01:02:06] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's, it's just, it's a different thing.
[01:02:08] [SPEAKER_01]: And you know, it, it, it does get a bit confusing.
[01:02:11] [SPEAKER_01]: And what I will say to Quinn about Brooklyn saying that she listens to our podcast.
[01:02:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[01:02:20] [SPEAKER_01]: I am wondering how much, because there is a lot of Taylor Hall going on.
[01:02:27] [SPEAKER_01]: So I, I'm wondering like, what podcast has she listened to?
[01:02:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, when did she start listening?
[01:02:33] [SPEAKER_01]: You know, so I'll be interested to see after the house, you know, when you guys get to talk
[01:02:39] [SPEAKER_01]: to her, how much of the podcast she's consumed, but.
[01:02:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Might, might be more of a, ironically, Taylor Hale kind of a thing where, you know, before
[01:02:50] [SPEAKER_03]: going on the show, Googling podcasts.
[01:02:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[01:02:54] [SPEAKER_01]: And that's why I'm like, maybe she listened to a couple here and there, you know, or she
[01:02:58] [SPEAKER_01]: was like, I know of this podcast, you know?
[01:03:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, so we'll, we'll see.
[01:03:03] [SPEAKER_03]: I can tell you the, the usual way it goes for me is that like, I'm like, Oh, Hey, I'm,
[01:03:08] [SPEAKER_03]: my name is Taryn.
[01:03:09] [SPEAKER_03]: They're like, Oh, what do you do for work?
[01:03:10] [SPEAKER_03]: And like, Oh, I, I do like podcasts, like content on the internet kind of stuff.
[01:03:15] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, and they're like, Oh, like what, like what kind of stuff do you make?
[01:03:19] [SPEAKER_03]: I talk about TV.
[01:03:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Don't ask me, please don't ask me what kind of TV.
[01:03:23] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like this show called big brother.
