[00:01:05] What's going on? Rob Cesternino back for one of the most special podcasts we get to do every single year.

[00:01:12] It's the stars of 2024.

[00:01:14] They are gathered here today to take part in another Brandt Steel simulation and we are here with one of the stars of 2024.

[00:01:25] It is my great honor to ask you to give it up for Mike Bloom.

[00:01:32] Rob, elated as always to join you and even more so elated to do this annual tradition.

[00:01:39] We're podcast guys. Of course, we're going to get together and podcast about the stars of the year being in a Brandt Steel.

[00:01:45] This is a very, very fun occasion and great opportunity to look back on the past 365 days.

[00:01:51] And I feel like we're going to say this every year we do it, Rob, but this one in particular felt just jam packed with oddities and some of it will be represented today.

[00:01:59] Jam packed. We had a plethora of things to choose from inanimate objects, stars, all sorts of things that are going to be in today's Brandt Steel.

[00:02:09] And this is something that is so fun because every year you solicit suggestions from the audience to be a part of this process.

[00:02:18] Now, for those of you who are just joining us, people who maybe just discovered RHAP this year or clicked on the wrong video by accident,

[00:02:27] let me tell you about what we're about to do here today. We're about to run.

[00:02:31] I don't know if I would call it AI, but I'd call it some kind of computer intelligence is going to help us simulate a season of Big Brother with a bunch of phenomenon and stars that we've loaded in from 2024.

[00:02:47] So this is going to be something Mike and I are going to be following along with you the action and commentating on a season of Big Brother that will play out in the next couple of hours.

[00:02:58] Mike, anything else people need to know about what we're doing today?

[00:03:01] Yeah. So again, everything we have created the cast, we are the Jesse Tannenbaums putting these people forward.

[00:03:08] Everything from there on out is out of our control.

[00:03:11] So we are basically commenting much like we do on the regular, Rob, about a season of reality TV playing out in front of us.

[00:03:19] We were able to curate a list of people pulled from many different spheres of pop culture.

[00:03:26] We were able to see a lot of people, memes, sometimes things as well into one calamitous, chaotic cast.

[00:03:40] That being said, it will not represent everyone in the group.

[00:03:44] And I do believe, Rob, I don't think we did this intentionally.

[00:03:47] I'm pretty sure this is going to be a fresh meat, Brant Steele.

[00:03:52] It is going to be all new players, which perhaps does spoil a bit of the casting.

[00:03:57] But suffice it to say, there are a lot of stars this year and we're only hoping we can match their freak in talking about them today.

[00:04:04] Well, we have a lot to get to here today, so we're going to jump right into everything.

[00:04:09] But first, a little bit of a programming announcement because we have some big news coming your way.

[00:04:16] And it's a podcast all about big news and something that might be one of the stars of 2025 is a brand new podcast starring the man I'm looking at right now.

[00:04:29] Announcing the reality flash with Mike Bloom.

[00:04:32] Look at that brown derby hat. Very demure, very mindful. See how he wears it to cover up his receding hairline.

[00:04:40] Yes. Excited to talk about a brand new podcast that I will be launching in the new year as we say farewell to 2024.

[00:04:47] Of course, a lot to miss, but a lot to look forward to in 2025, including the reality flash, which is RHAP's official breaking news podcast in the world of reality television.

[00:04:59] Yeah. And so we're very excited to be working with Mike on this podcast that Mike, of course, is a great resource on any reality TV news that breaks.

[00:05:08] You can often find him being the first to report all sorts of stories over on parade dot com.

[00:05:14] And now we have the opportunity to in podcast form, be able to have one of the top names in reality news bringing you a story whenever something is going on, whether it is the announcement of a new show, a new cast, Twitter drama that is boiling over.

[00:05:33] Mike Bloom is going to be on the scene with a shortish podcast that coming to you in a flash to talk about whatever is the biggest story in reality TV.

[00:05:42] Yeah. Who would have thought that shortish and Mike Bloom rely or reside in the same sentence together?

[00:05:48] But look, this is my new year's resolution. And so I'm really excited about these to Rob's point.

[00:05:53] These are really bite sized podcasts that will come out when we feel there is a big piece of breaking news to talk about.

[00:05:59] And it's essentially going to be the gist, a boiled down version of, OK, what's happening?

[00:06:05] What do you need to know? And what are people saying about it?

[00:06:08] To your point, I'm very lucky in that I do get to bring in an extensive amount of experience in reality TV journalism and get to apply it in this form as well.

[00:06:18] And we'll be kicking things off in a major way on January 1st, as I will be with one foot in the past, Rob, and one foot in the future.

[00:06:26] I will reflect on some of the biggest storylines and characters to come out of 2024 in reality television and talk about what I'm looking forward to most in 2025.

[00:06:35] And there is a lot. So make sure you go to the reality flash dot com.

[00:06:41] I have a bit of a teaser trailer up there to just give you a taste as to what to expect from these bite sized podcasts.

[00:06:48] Send it to me, Rachel. Send it to everyone that you might know that is interested in these types of shows.

[00:06:54] And yeah, again, first episodes coming out January 1st.

[00:06:57] And then it's going to kind of show up intermittently whenever we hear the call of the wild.

[00:07:02] And there's going to be, you know, big news on the horizon.

[00:07:04] I will be in your eyes and ears bringing you all the info you need to know from the wide sea of reality TV.

[00:07:10] I will be your fisherman.

[00:07:12] Yeah. So make sure you don't miss any breaking reality news when it happens.

[00:07:16] Make sure you're subscribed at therealityflash dot com with Mike Bloom.

[00:07:21] We can't wait to see what stars of 2025 that you will be talking about there.

[00:07:26] All right, Mike. So let's get into our cast here for our brand steel.

[00:07:32] And so we had a team of experts that were working.

[00:07:36] Some of our top pop culture experts gathered here today.

[00:07:40] We had hundreds of submissions from the listeners.

[00:07:44] And really what we tried to get down to were the things that were iconically 2024, not necessarily the figures from the quote unquote news.

[00:07:57] We're trying not to be too serious.

[00:07:59] But these are sort of like the figures that really made their mark on the year that went by.

[00:08:04] Yeah. So we've kind of stuck to this in the now six years that we've done this of how we tend to stay away from politics.

[00:08:12] We even tend to stay away sometimes for the most part with athletes, with a couple of exceptions, including this year.

[00:08:18] It is largely entertainment focused, and they are hopefully going to be an entertaining cast.

[00:08:23] But as the wide swath will show again, Rob, this was a very weird year.

[00:08:29] Weird year. Weird year. OK.

[00:08:31] All right. Let's bring in our cast.

[00:08:34] OK. And so let's go ahead and bring in our first contestant that's going to be entering the BB24 house.

[00:08:44] OK. Here is Chapel Rhone.

[00:08:48] Yes. So to spoil a bit of the future casting of this season, it was a year for the pop girlies, Rob.

[00:08:55] We really saw the rise of quite a few people onto the scene.

[00:09:00] And we'll see if she will have a rise and fall of a Midwestern princess inside the Big Brother house.

[00:09:05] It is the one, the only Chapel Rhone.

[00:09:07] Yeah. Now, I thought this was Chappelle up until a little bit before we came on to the podcast.

[00:09:12] I was like, OK, he had a pretty good year. He won R.H.P. the traders and recap kickback.

[00:09:16] So, OK, just Chappelle's in. No, no, it's a different person.

[00:09:20] Chapel Rhone.

[00:09:21] I mean, we haven't seen them in the same place at the same time, Rob.

[00:09:25] Yeah.

[00:09:25] Yeah. OK.

[00:09:26] He could be moonlighting.

[00:09:27] Could be. All right.

[00:09:29] Congratulations. Welcome, Chapel Rhone.

[00:09:32] Next, we have another pop star.

[00:09:35] OK.

[00:09:36] Serving, giving Brad Winter, Charlie XCX.

[00:09:41] Yes, of course.

[00:09:42] Over this summer, we had in one of the many entertaining moments of Big Brother 26,

[00:09:46] Angela called Matt a brat.

[00:09:49] And Charlie said, like, let me one up that and actually reappropriate the term and see how I can do in the Big Brother house.

[00:09:56] And of course, she will be dressed in this sickening light green neon yellow.

[00:10:02] I'm not sure how it will clash with the decor.

[00:10:04] But, you know, Big Brother fans like to talk about the pieces of wardrobe that people wear over and over again in the house.

[00:10:10] Charlie XCX will definitely invest in that color all season long.

[00:10:13] OK. Next. First, we had Derek XCX, now Charlie XCX in the Big Brother house.

[00:10:20] All right. It's the Dune popcorn bucket.

[00:10:24] There we go. Nothing says more deke than the Dune popcorn bucket, of course.

[00:10:29] Now, Mike, you have one of these, right?

[00:10:31] Oh, well, you know, it depends on whenever the nights sort of lend to that.

[00:10:37] But the spice will flow and hopefully so will the blind sides coming from the Dune popcorn bucket because you never know what might be inside.

[00:10:45] But regardless, much like the Big Brother house, once you enter, you're bound to have a good time.

[00:10:49] The Dune popcorn bucket.

[00:10:50] I mean, it's too bad that Dune popcorn bucket wasn't playing in Big Brother 26.

[00:10:53] Could have had a showmance with Joseph Rodriguez.

[00:10:58] Exactly.

[00:10:59] A big film buff.

[00:11:01] Yes, exactly.

[00:11:02] He is able to reach in.

[00:11:03] Lover of Dune.

[00:11:04] Yes. Grease his hands with all that butter.

[00:11:07] Give proper lubrication before reaching in and grabbing some of that good stuff within the Dune popcorn bucket.

[00:11:12] And so we shall see if, much like Paul Atreides, it is able to lead its own cult inside the house, much like Paul.

[00:11:18] Actually, the more you think about it, Dune part two is really Big Brother 19 coded.

[00:11:22] Okay.

[00:11:23] I'll take your word for that, Mike.

[00:11:24] Let's go to our next.

[00:11:25] Oh, it's Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[00:11:27] Yeah.

[00:11:28] So, again, 2024 was an odd year.

[00:11:31] And this is going to be one of a couple of characters, Rob, that actually really came onto the scene right after we did last year's podcast.

[00:11:39] Gypsy Rose Blanchard was released from prison on parole in late December 2023 after being tried and found guilty for the murder of her mother.

[00:11:47] And she's kind of went on the world tour since.

[00:11:51] She went on a huge talk show circuit, was on a reality show.

[00:11:54] So this is not her first experience, has made a bunch of cameos on different things, got divorced, then got kindled things with her old flame, then was pregnant by that old flame.

[00:12:06] So mother of a year.

[00:12:07] Don't call her mother.

[00:12:09] She has a lot of odd attachments to that term.

[00:12:11] Okay.

[00:12:11] All right.

[00:12:12] Next up, we have always talk to a girl.

[00:12:14] Couldn't do the 2024 brand steal without Hawk to a girl.

[00:12:20] Yeah.

[00:12:21] So, of course, one of I would say maybe like the 1A star, the 1.01 pick of stars of 2024.

[00:12:29] A girl, Haley Welch, I think her name is, who just went absolutely viral.

[00:12:34] I don't think she has a real name.

[00:12:35] No, you think she's officially changed it at this point?

[00:12:37] I mean, listen, she may want to change her name after her linking to some certain things at the end of the year here.

[00:12:43] But, of course, went viral for her rather full bloom answer that she just absolutely turned into a brief media empire before that media empire promptly crumbled, much like that cryptocurrency.

[00:12:54] So if there's anyone who needs the money the most, the non-existent money, it might be her.

[00:12:57] Okay.

[00:12:58] Next up, we have Kendrick Lamar.

[00:13:02] Yeah.

[00:13:02] So, of course, Kendrick Lamar, KDOT, put a punctuation mark at the end of a beef that he had with Drake, where the two men were certainly exchanging barbs, much like the thorned crown that Kendrick is wearing in this picture.

[00:13:15] But I think a lot of people feel that Kendrick was the winner here.

[00:13:18] And also, maybe this is a bit of like tying in the beginning of 2025, Kendrick will be headlining the Super Bowl as well.

[00:13:25] So a big year for Kendrick.

[00:13:27] Okay.

[00:13:27] Next up, we've got, oh, the Menendez brothers.

[00:13:30] So the Menendez brothers, of course, were known in the 90s.

[00:13:35] Lyle and Eric.

[00:13:35] Yes, for the murder of their parents.

[00:13:38] They have recently come to prominence because of their rather unique portrayal in the Monsters Netflix series created by Ryan Murphy.

[00:13:48] And, you know, they will be playing together.

[00:13:50] Yeah.

[00:13:51] Much like the Nolan twins.

[00:13:53] And according to Ryan Murphy, they share more than one thing in common with the Nolan twins.

[00:13:56] I was going to say the PAX bros.

[00:13:57] Yeah.

[00:13:58] That's true.

[00:14:00] Okay.

[00:14:01] All right.

[00:14:01] So here are the Menendez bros.

[00:14:06] Okay.

[00:14:06] Playing as one house guest, I will say.

[00:14:08] Lyle and Eric are not playing separately.

[00:14:10] They do everything together.

[00:14:12] Yes, they do.

[00:14:13] Okay.

[00:14:14] All right.

[00:14:14] Oh, it's Mudang.

[00:14:15] Yes.

[00:14:16] Of course.

[00:14:16] Over the summer, Mudang took the world by storm.

[00:14:20] This cute little Thai pygmy hippopotamus will hopefully not get involved in any ties.

[00:14:25] But just cute beyond the dickens also proved a bit prescient considering that her taste in certain cakes was able to accurately predict the presidential election.

[00:14:34] So Mudang is here to play.

[00:14:36] Do not let that cute facade fool you.

[00:14:38] Okay.

[00:14:38] All right.

[00:14:39] Then we've got, oh, it's New Jersey drones.

[00:14:43] Yes.

[00:14:43] A story that is quite literally close to my heart and probably the latest of these characters to enter the 2024 brand seal.

[00:14:51] But in a big way, listen, a lot of people want to get revenge on those jammokes that fly banner planes over the house.

[00:14:58] Now we're essentially putting one of them in the house.

[00:15:01] Let's see if it's able to communicate some rather interesting messages to its fellow house guests.

[00:15:06] A house guest that will truly play the floater game.

[00:15:09] Yes, exactly.

[00:15:10] Floaters grab a remote control.

[00:15:12] Okay.

[00:15:13] All right.

[00:15:14] Then it's the Pop-Tart mascot star of the Pop-Tart Bowl.

[00:15:17] Yeah.

[00:15:18] So this was a little bit of a mea culpa from last year.

[00:15:21] The Pop-Tart Bowl happened after we did the 2023 brand steel and it was lit or should I say it was toasted because the Pop-Tart mascot in this odd Orwellian dystopian fantasy is this mascot.

[00:15:36] Big Brother's pretty Orwellian too.

[00:15:38] Yeah, very true.

[00:15:39] RIP that owl.

[00:15:40] But he was able to celebrate the end of the Pop-Tart Bowl by descending into a toaster, popping out as an inanimate deceased version of itself in which the winning team then feasted on its innards.

[00:15:53] And the saga continued.

[00:15:54] You know, we were talking about a couple days after this year, Pop-Tarts Bowl.

[00:15:57] Did you watch the results of that, Rob?

[00:15:58] So I didn't see the results.

[00:15:59] I saw some clips of the Pop-Tarts stripping.

[00:16:02] Oh, yeah.

[00:16:03] They really committed to the bit and then some.

[00:16:05] I wouldn't even call it a bit.

[00:16:06] It's a full out narrative right now.

[00:16:08] Like there are some Marvel movies that had less story going on than the Pop-Tarts Bowl where the frosted strawberry Pop-Tart resurrected itself and actually made its return in all of its like uncanny valley horror stricken face that luckily we have put the before image on his picture, not the after.

[00:16:28] Though it'll be interesting to see if, you know, 100 days of Big Brother, if he'll wind up looking like that at the end.

[00:16:32] Okay, next up.

[00:16:33] Oh, it's Ray Gunn.

[00:16:34] It is Ray Gunn.

[00:16:36] Probably the biggest meme to come out of the 2024 Olympics.

[00:16:40] Rachel Gunn is here to show up really raving and say, if you can do a cartwheel out of the house, I'll do a whole ass routine.

[00:16:49] Of course, the Australian breakdancer breakdancing was a brand new sport in the Olympics.

[00:16:53] And while it was certainly notable, I think she almost superseded the event itself with how viral she went.

[00:16:59] Okay, next up.

[00:17:00] It's Sabrina Carpenter.

[00:17:01] Yes, finishing off our holy trinity of pop princesses, though some would say she is not exactly a holy figure considering how salacious her material can be.

[00:17:12] It is Sabrina Carpenter.

[00:17:14] Don't talk to her until she's had me espresso, Rob.

[00:17:17] Okay, there you go.

[00:17:18] All right, then next up, after Sabrina Carpenter.

[00:17:22] Oh, it's Steven Nedaracic.

[00:17:24] Yes, also known as Pummel Horse Guy.

[00:17:27] One of the other big internet favorites of the Olympics.

[00:17:31] Really just came out of nowhere as one of the male gymnasts to help bring home a medal for the U.S. for the first time in over 15 years.

[00:17:41] But he was most well known for his zen state, his Clark Kent look, his love of Rubik's cubes.

[00:17:46] Look, Rob, this is big brother.

[00:17:49] We know that we have to throw one, but only one white guy with glasses in there.

[00:17:55] You have to.

[00:17:55] Steven Nedaracic fits the quota.

[00:17:57] Okay.

[00:17:58] All right.

[00:17:58] And it's the Rizzler.

[00:18:00] It's the Rizzler.

[00:18:02] Of course, one of the most, the biggest internet darlings, I should say.

[00:18:07] A child that is, I mean, that is a dire room photo in and of itself.

[00:18:11] Is it not like this?

[00:18:12] Look at that Rizz face.

[00:18:14] He's got that Rizz face going on, but let's see if the Rizz will carry over.

[00:18:16] I mean, I don't know, putting a child in a Pop-Tart together, Rob.

[00:18:19] I think this is either going to be a match in heaven.

[00:18:22] Hey, he's a Costco guy.

[00:18:23] Of course he's going to get a Pop-Tart mascot.

[00:18:26] That's interesting as well.

[00:18:27] Do you think he got coached by the Costco guys?

[00:18:29] Are the Costco guys like the Derek Levasseur of the Brandt Steel universe?

[00:18:33] Hmm.

[00:18:33] Yeah.

[00:18:34] I mean, Derek Levasseur and AJ, I could see some similarities.

[00:18:39] Yeah.

[00:18:39] I think.

[00:18:40] Shout out to AJ and Big Justice who we debated internally.

[00:18:44] We had several hours of meetings of should it be all the Costco guys or just the Rizzler?

[00:18:49] Yeah.

[00:18:49] But the Rizzler is like the Urkel.

[00:18:50] You know, like he is the breakout star.

[00:18:52] Despite the fact that, let this be known, he is not related to the Costco guys.

[00:18:56] My mind was blown that I couldn't believe it.

[00:19:00] The Rizzler is not a biological child of AJ.

[00:19:03] He's not even adopted by the family.

[00:19:05] He has his own parents.

[00:19:07] No, they just found him on the internet and they said, let's start collaborating.

[00:19:11] And then a marriage was truly made, though I believe legally that is not allowed.

[00:19:17] But yeah, the Rizzler is basically like you could say he's out of the third wheel or you

[00:19:20] could say he's like the whole damn tricycle with how popular this kid has become.

[00:19:24] OK, there's the Rizzler playing big brother.

[00:19:26] And then it's Zendaya.

[00:19:29] Zendaya had a big two for here.

[00:19:32] So, of course, starring in Dune Part 2, which should be interesting.

[00:19:34] She does technically have a preexisting relationship with the popcorn bucket, Rob.

[00:19:38] And we'll see how much that might carry over.

[00:19:41] If you look into it, you could see home.

[00:19:42] But also, she is one of the main stars of Challenger.

[00:19:47] So we shall see how quickly she gets into a three-person alliance and maybe serve up a

[00:19:53] win here.

[00:19:53] OK, all right.

[00:19:54] So there you have it.

[00:19:56] That's our cast here for our stars of Big Brother 2024.

[00:20:01] Now, I know that there are so many snubs.

[00:20:05] We met for hours.

[00:20:06] There are people that deserve to be in the brand steel.

[00:20:10] We just tried to optimize this for what would be the most fun group of people to have in

[00:20:17] a...

[00:20:17] It does not mean that just because somebody is not in the list does not mean that they

[00:20:21] did not have a great year in 2024.

[00:20:23] We acknowledge everybody's artistic achievements.

[00:20:27] We just tried to figure out who would be the most fun to talk about on a fake reality

[00:20:32] show.

[00:20:33] Right, exactly.

[00:20:34] Just to mention a few that would probably are at the top of a lot of people's lists.

[00:20:39] Beyonce, of course, had a big year with Cowboy Carter, performed at the Netflix halftime

[00:20:43] game.

[00:20:43] But she has decided she is going to preemptively join a poker alliance and start playing Texas

[00:20:48] Hold'em.

[00:20:49] And so I think she's getting ready for another show.

[00:20:51] Similarly, Luigi Mangione.

[00:20:55] Listen, it's weird to say that some people made a killing.

[00:21:02] The block was hot.

[00:21:03] But also, he's for Love Island.

[00:21:06] He's very Love Island cozy.

[00:21:07] And then finally, of course, Rob, this is a rarefied air.

[00:21:12] This will be our first official brand steel without Taylor Swift.

[00:21:16] And that is not to say that she didn't have a great year.

[00:21:18] Tortured Poets Department came out and she ended the heiress tour.

[00:21:22] And that's what it kind of feels like.

[00:21:23] This feels like a bit of an end of an era.

[00:21:26] You know, I think it's very tough to top last year when she played alongside her boyfriend,

[00:21:31] Travis Kelsey, who brutally blindsides her at the Final Four.

[00:21:35] And then she doesn't vote for him to win.

[00:21:36] So we decided to get a little bit of a yachtis from the T-Swift.

[00:21:40] Apologies to Swifties.

[00:21:41] Apologies to Charlie out there.

[00:21:43] But I can only imagine that she will make a big return.

[00:21:47] I actually hear, Rob, that she's played as many times as Boston Rob has played Survivor.

[00:21:51] So I think dealer no deal island is next for Taylor Swift.

[00:21:53] Okay, maybe that'll be the brand steel we do next year.

[00:21:57] All right, let's get into our season and kick things off with how everything is going to go.

[00:22:05] We will be learning what happens as you do as we go through.

[00:22:11] And so, Mike, let's go ahead and take a little gander at our house guests.

[00:22:18] Here we have 15 house guests in all.

[00:22:21] Oh, my God.

[00:22:22] Look at these people.

[00:22:23] Okay.

[00:22:24] All right.

[00:22:24] Who do you fear for the most?

[00:22:26] Again, I'm just looking at the Pop-Tart mascot.

[00:22:29] How long do they figure out that it's a walking piece of food?

[00:22:31] And how many do those poor have-nots just start looking at it?

[00:22:33] Yeah, I think Mudang is going to go ham on that Pop-Tart mascot.

[00:22:38] Remember in Big Brother 2 when they randomly brought in a pot-bellied pig named Ophelia?

[00:22:42] That's kind of what Mudang feels like in permanent house guest form.

[00:22:45] You have a winner pick, Mike?

[00:22:47] Oh, man.

[00:22:48] I mean, I would probably go with Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[00:22:54] I think she has a lot of life experience now.

[00:22:56] And she has the ability to plot some things behind the scenes.

[00:22:59] I think Kendrick, you don't want to sit in the endgame with him because he is very, very good with his words and is not afraid to slam his opponent down, especially in a one-versus-one scenario.

[00:23:10] But I'm going to go with Raygun here because I think Raygun is a little Josh Martinez-coated.

[00:23:15] Like, I think she's going to get laughed at initially.

[00:23:18] She's a little bit of the goofball.

[00:23:19] No one's going to really suspect her.

[00:23:21] But you keep her in long enough and she can sneak up on you like she is in that little weird kangaroo pose right there.

[00:23:27] And before you know it, you're flat on your back while she's spinning her head off.

[00:23:31] Okay, my money's on the Rizzler.

[00:23:32] All right, let's go.

[00:23:33] Let's go to week one.

[00:23:35] Here we are.

[00:23:36] All right.

[00:23:36] Oh, we got some alliances going on.

[00:23:38] Okay.

[00:23:39] The Menendez brothers and the Dune Popcorn Bucket have alliance number one of the season.

[00:23:44] Lord, you're testing me already.

[00:23:49] All right.

[00:23:49] Alliance number two, the Menendez brothers and the Rizzler.

[00:23:52] Okay.

[00:23:53] Well, listen.

[00:23:55] In the Menendez brothers, they've learned to take turns from a certain perspective.

[00:23:58] And so they've learned how to share.

[00:24:00] Do you think they divided and conquered?

[00:24:01] Do you think Eric cornered the bucket and Lyle was like, all right, Rizzler, I got something to offer you here.

[00:24:08] I feel like the Rizzler likes working in a trio.

[00:24:12] So maybe that's also what's going on here.

[00:24:14] Rizzler, you ever think about going solo?

[00:24:17] Okay.

[00:24:18] All right.

[00:24:19] Then we have another big alliance.

[00:24:20] Look at that.

[00:24:21] We got all our pop stars together.

[00:24:23] The Music Alliance.

[00:24:24] We are the World Alliance.

[00:24:26] Okay.

[00:24:26] We'll see how long this lasts though.

[00:24:27] Because I feel like the music industry is so ego driven.

[00:24:31] Okay.

[00:24:31] Yeah.

[00:24:31] I think a lot of people were wondering between Chapel Rho and Charlie XX, Suprena Carpenter, which one would reign supreme here?

[00:24:37] At least for the time being, they're all agreeing to work together.

[00:24:40] This does feel very understandable, Rob.

[00:24:42] This feels like a typical beginning of a Big Brother season where it's like, let's all stick together here.

[00:24:46] Yeah.

[00:24:47] Our three pop princesses and Kendrick Lamar have an alliance together here on night one.

[00:24:53] And then also inside of this, there's a pop princesses without Kendrick Lamar.

[00:24:59] Very interesting.

[00:25:00] Yeah.

[00:25:01] A new Powerpuff.

[00:25:01] A collab.

[00:25:02] Okay.

[00:25:03] Take that, Love Island.

[00:25:03] All right.

[00:25:04] So let's go ahead and learn about our first HOH.

[00:25:07] And so we have everybody competing.

[00:25:10] Ray Gunn is out first.

[00:25:12] Might be a breakdancing competition.

[00:25:13] All right.

[00:25:14] It's down to Sabrina Carpenter, Gypsy Rose Blanchard, and Kendrick Lamar.

[00:25:18] And our first HOH will be Kendrick Lamar.

[00:25:21] First HOH of the stars of 2024.

[00:25:25] Yes.

[00:25:26] Kendrick Lamar.

[00:25:26] He is wearing that HOH key.

[00:25:29] Like it's all the drip he has around him, like the boogers, as he likes to quote.

[00:25:33] And he is rocking that robe, man.

[00:25:36] He is absolutely making a meal out of the fact that he is the initial number one person in this house.

[00:25:42] Okay.

[00:25:42] Kendrick Lamar has gotten everybody together for the nomination ceremony.

[00:25:46] And our first nominees are going to be Zendaya and the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[00:25:52] Now, Mike, they do have a pregame alliance.

[00:25:54] Zendaya and the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[00:25:57] Listen, Kendrick's smart.

[00:25:58] He's chronically online.

[00:25:59] I think he knows everything that the Dune Popcorn Bucket has to offer.

[00:26:03] And so he wants to nip that in the bud and decides to put Zendaya and the Popcorn Bucket on the block together.

[00:26:12] And it's tough.

[00:26:13] Things aren't doing good for the Dune pair.

[00:26:16] No, not doing good so far.

[00:26:19] Okay.

[00:26:20] All right.

[00:26:20] Let's then go to our power veto.

[00:26:23] And so let's find out who's going to play in the power veto competition with Kendrick Lamar, Zendaya, and the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[00:26:30] Mike, Kendrick Lamar has Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[00:26:35] I mean, people argue that Kendrick Lamar absolutely slaughtered Drake in those reps.

[00:26:42] I will also say Kendrick Lamar, in one of the many diss tracks he penned about Drake, did call one euphoria.

[00:26:49] So I think he does have a bit of an axe to grind with Zendaya and vice versa.

[00:26:52] Okay.

[00:26:53] Zendaya draws Stephen Naurasic.

[00:26:58] Yeah, he's the most Tom Holland coded out of this entire cast, right?

[00:27:01] She can look at him and see home.

[00:27:03] Yeah.

[00:27:03] Okay.

[00:27:04] Now, this was hard for the Dune Popcorn Bucket because the veto chips were actually inside of the Dune Popcorn Bucket for everybody to draw them.

[00:27:13] So from its own body, it spits out the Menendez Brothers.

[00:27:17] They have an alliance.

[00:27:18] Yeah, they have an alliance.

[00:27:20] So it drew houseguest choice, actually.

[00:27:22] And so it just uttered from its, you know, deepest innards, the Menendez Brothers.

[00:27:26] Okay.

[00:27:27] All right.

[00:27:27] Let's go to our first veto of the season.

[00:27:29] And the winner of the power veto is going to be the Dune Popcorn Bucket, baby.

[00:27:36] You do not F with the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[00:27:40] I love round things.

[00:27:41] Actually, a lot of people do, I think.

[00:27:43] Yeah.

[00:27:43] Much like that veto, I will devour it, my competition.

[00:27:47] Okay.

[00:27:48] I would have to imagine the Dune Popcorn Bucket will use the power veto and take itself off of the block.

[00:27:53] It will get itself off.

[00:27:55] Now, the question is, Kendrick is more than happy to spread smoke, but who is getting the other bullet here?

[00:28:01] Who is going to be sitting next to Zendaya?

[00:28:03] Okay.

[00:28:03] We'll find out.

[00:28:04] Backdoor plan.

[00:28:05] All right.

[00:28:07] All right.

[00:28:08] So Zendaya and the Dune Popcorn Bucket will be on the block, but the Dune Popcorn Bucket will use the power of veto and the Dune Popcorn Bucket will get off.

[00:28:21] Does it just like suck the veto back in?

[00:28:24] Mm-hmm.

[00:28:25] All right.

[00:28:26] So, Mike, we have a replacement nominee coming, and it's Steven Narasic.

[00:28:31] Okay.

[00:28:32] Wow.

[00:28:32] So the showmance is on the block.

[00:28:34] Oh, man.

[00:28:35] Yep.

[00:28:35] You know what?

[00:28:36] I think Kendrick's got a little bit of Frenchie vibes.

[00:28:38] I think he's like paying attention.

[00:28:40] He's like, all right, let me catch that bigger fish.

[00:28:43] Let me throw this guy on here.

[00:28:45] You know, Zendaya, you're playing tennis.

[00:28:47] You just lost your doubles partner.

[00:28:49] Steven.

[00:28:50] Wow.

[00:28:50] Good luck.

[00:28:51] You could swing your legs around this horse.

[00:28:53] Let's see if you could swing the votes over to your side.

[00:28:55] All right, Mike.

[00:28:55] Now, this is where we're really going to get to know what's going on, because we're going

[00:28:58] to find out about the events of the week.

[00:29:01] All right.

[00:29:02] So here we go.

[00:29:03] Gypsy Rose Blanchard gets on the good side of Chapel Roan by calling them very demure,

[00:29:08] very mindful.

[00:29:08] I mean, she is very mindful of a lot of issues, perhaps controversially.

[00:29:13] So yeah, I think Chapel Roan takes to it kindly.

[00:29:15] Gypsy Rose doing some good social game to start things out.

[00:29:18] Okay.

[00:29:19] However, she does her own Jojo Siwa bad girl makeover.

[00:29:23] Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

[00:29:24] Well, it's good for Bowie Jane.

[00:29:27] I think she became Bowie Jane's instant fave with her like black swan adjacent look.

[00:29:32] Okay.

[00:29:33] Next up, the Rizzler finds out he placed third in a Timothee Chalamet lookalike contest.

[00:29:40] Well, this is not a good week for that with all of the dune bashing going on in this house.

[00:29:45] Though it could be an ability for him to be like, hey, Zendaya, do I remind you of anybody

[00:29:51] at this moment?

[00:29:52] Let me just put this ring in my nose.

[00:29:54] I don't.

[00:29:55] Maybe he placed third next to the big justice and AJ.

[00:29:58] I'm not entirely sure.

[00:29:59] Next to the dune popcorn bucket.

[00:30:00] Yeah.

[00:30:01] I'm not sure if the competition was inside or outside of the house.

[00:30:05] Okay.

[00:30:07] All right.

[00:30:07] Next up, Steven Nidorasik draws controversy when he says,

[00:30:12] Luigi Mangione is just mid.

[00:30:15] Uh-oh.

[00:30:16] Hot take.

[00:30:18] Steven, that's jealousy speaking.

[00:30:20] Come on.

[00:30:21] I know that you were the next hot new thing that people thirsted after, but let them get

[00:30:25] some other chances at the watering hole here.

[00:30:27] All right.

[00:30:28] Then the dune popcorn bucket and Charlie XCX.

[00:30:32] The dune popcorn bucket rides Charlie XCX like a horse to recreate the Cowboy Carter album cover.

[00:30:38] Yeah.

[00:30:39] Yeah.

[00:30:40] So for those that want that image in their head and please Photoshoppers be at the ready

[00:30:44] right now.

[00:30:45] Uh, so the dune popcorn bucket, I guess much, much like Christmas Abbott and Whistlenut back

[00:30:50] in the day, it's going to hop onto the back of Charlie XCX like a horse and is going to

[00:30:55] wear a Cowboy hat and wave an American flag in honor of what I'm assuming would be their

[00:31:00] HOH album.

[00:31:01] Wow.

[00:31:02] Okay.

[00:31:03] Then that's it for the week.

[00:31:05] All right.

[00:31:05] It's eviction night, Mike.

[00:31:07] Okay.

[00:31:07] So Steven at Rossic, listen, was not put up initially.

[00:31:11] I don't know if this was exactly a backdoor on Kendrick's part, but did draw a little bit

[00:31:15] of negative attention to himself.

[00:31:16] And honestly, in this first week, all you want to do is like not have a reason for people

[00:31:20] to evict you.

[00:31:22] Steven at Rossic might've just won the medal in sending his own ass home.

[00:31:26] Okay.

[00:31:27] All right.

[00:31:28] Uh, we don't need to see vote by vote.

[00:31:30] We can go ahead and find out what happened by a vote of seven to five.

[00:31:36] Close, close, close.

[00:31:38] Steven.

[00:31:39] And Rossic has been evicted from the big brother house.

[00:31:42] Wow.

[00:31:43] I mean, listen, I think people are arguing on the internet that, uh, the dancing with the

[00:31:47] stars tour is coming up.

[00:31:48] Like did he just come for the appearance fee and purposely get himself evicted first by

[00:31:52] saying Luigi Mangione was mid.

[00:31:54] I'm not entirely sure.

[00:31:56] Do you think there's a chance that, uh, Steven and Rossic appears later as an AI recreation

[00:32:00] at a certain moment with the dune popcorn bucket?

[00:32:03] Wow.

[00:32:04] Is that part of like, like a hologram?

[00:32:07] You think that there could be, maybe we could see, uh, some sort of like, uh, deep fake

[00:32:12] HOH?

[00:32:13] Yeah, exactly.

[00:32:14] Like Steven will pop up and be the one to, uh, not popcorn and be able to just slander

[00:32:18] these other house guests because I think, listen, Steven and Rossic has a lot of staying power

[00:32:23] and slaying power.

[00:32:24] So he might be one of those iconic first boots in a year that has been full of them.

[00:32:29] Okay.

[00:32:30] All right.

[00:32:31] Mike.

[00:32:32] He was too threatening, Rob.

[00:32:34] He had glasses.

[00:32:34] He solved Rubik's cube.

[00:32:36] So he's good at puzzles.

[00:32:37] I think everyone just perceived him as a threat lying in weight.

[00:32:40] He's just sitting there, eyes closed, ready to take those glasses off.

[00:32:44] But, uh, the problem is once he does, he's blind.

[00:32:47] Yeah.

[00:32:48] Steven and Rossic, he tasted, uh, victory in the Olympic games.

[00:32:53] But sadly, uh, that was his only winning to do here in the rest of 2024.

[00:32:59] But still even making the cast is a feat in and of itself.

[00:33:03] Mike time for week two of the stars of, uh, 2024.

[00:33:08] We're down to just 14 in the BB house.

[00:33:13] Let's see what happens next.

[00:33:15] Kendrick Lamar cannot play HOH.

[00:33:17] All right.

[00:33:18] We have our alliances.

[00:33:19] But Ken, Kendrick is protected by the pop princesses.

[00:33:22] Yes.

[00:33:23] Okay.

[00:33:23] Uh-oh.

[00:33:24] Bad news.

[00:33:24] The Dune Popcorn Bucket and the Menendez brothers have dissolved their alliance.

[00:33:30] When things end with the Menendez brothers, they tend to end badly.

[00:33:33] Right.

[00:33:34] Exactly.

[00:33:34] And I do think the Dune Popcorn Bucket gives head, I mean, gets a big head, I should say,

[00:33:39] and was probably getting a little too big for its britches, non-existently, about the

[00:33:44] fact that it won a veto and thinks it's hot stuff, much like the hot stuff that exists

[00:33:48] inside of it.

[00:33:48] So maybe the Menendez brothers were not happy with how cocksure it was.

[00:33:52] Okay.

[00:33:54] Mike, that was a lot.

[00:33:57] Let's go to our second HOH competition.

[00:34:01] And let's find out.

[00:34:03] The next HOH will be either Gypsy Rose Blanchard, the Pop-Tart mascot, or Chapel Rhone.

[00:34:08] And it's Chapel Rhone, the new HOH.

[00:34:11] Okay.

[00:34:12] H-O-H-H-H-H-H-H.

[00:34:15] I have won the HOH.

[00:34:18] All right.

[00:34:20] Congratulations, Chapel Rhone, the new HOH.

[00:34:23] And Chapel Rhone gets up to the HOH room, works on these nominations, which are going

[00:34:29] to be the New Jersey drone and the Pop-Tart mascot.

[00:34:34] Okay.

[00:34:35] Now, is this a little like speciesist?

[00:34:37] Is she like, listen, I may not like some of what humanity is doing, but I trust living,

[00:34:43] breathing people above these inanimate objects or like anthropomorphic mascots.

[00:34:48] Good luck, babe.

[00:34:49] I'm putting you up.

[00:34:49] Yeah.

[00:34:50] Chapel Rhone has been working with the musicians in the house.

[00:34:54] New Jersey drones and the Pop-Tart mascot are certainly not in that mix.

[00:34:58] True to your label.

[00:35:00] New Jersey drone's been a bit of a floater.

[00:35:01] No alliances so far in the first two weeks.

[00:35:03] Not yet.

[00:35:03] And Pop-Tart mascot's been pretty quiet too, so maybe-

[00:35:06] He doesn't talk.

[00:35:07] He can only hold up signs.

[00:35:08] That's the problem.

[00:35:09] Yeah.

[00:35:09] Chapel Rhone's just like, yeah, I just feel like we didn't get to know each other too

[00:35:12] well.

[00:35:13] Exactly.

[00:35:13] It's not you.

[00:35:14] It's me.

[00:35:14] Okay.

[00:35:15] All right.

[00:35:17] For the power of veto, Chapel Rhone draws Kendrick Lamar.

[00:35:21] Okay.

[00:35:22] A solid music alliance.

[00:35:25] New Jersey drone draws Charlie Allen.

[00:35:29] Bad draw.

[00:35:29] This is a great draw for the ruling alliance right now.

[00:35:33] And Pop-Tart.

[00:35:34] It's got Sabrina.

[00:35:35] Oh, horrible draw.

[00:35:37] Worst time of a terrible draw.

[00:35:40] Oh, and you know these musicians, once they get in the studio, aka the room that they all

[00:35:44] share, they're jumping up and down.

[00:35:45] They're celebrating because they crushed this draw.

[00:35:48] They have a two-thirds chance of winning this veto and assumingly keeping the nominations

[00:35:51] the same.

[00:35:52] Okay.

[00:35:53] All right.

[00:35:54] New Jersey drone is out.

[00:35:56] And so for Pop-Tart, I think it's going to be all on the Pop-Tart to come up the winner.

[00:36:03] And Sabrina Carpenter has won the golden power of veto.

[00:36:06] We do not expect Sabrina Carpenter to use the power of veto.

[00:36:09] No.

[00:36:10] Despite the fact that both nominees are going to be saying, please, please, please to her,

[00:36:13] she's going to deny them.

[00:36:15] Okay.

[00:36:15] All right.

[00:36:16] Let's go to our power of veto ceremony.

[00:36:18] And Sabrina Carpenter has decided not to use the power of veto.

[00:36:23] Yeah.

[00:36:23] This makes sense.

[00:36:24] Don't rock the boat too much.

[00:36:27] You know, you don't let your bed chem be too screwed up right here in week two.

[00:36:31] You got to play the long game.

[00:36:33] And unfortunately, the game will not be long for two of the most unique castings, I would

[00:36:37] say, in this house.

[00:36:38] Okay.

[00:36:38] Mike, let's see what's going on in the house this week.

[00:36:40] Charlie XCX and the Rizsler win tickets to a screening of Madam Web in the HOH room.

[00:36:46] They politely decline.

[00:36:48] Yeah.

[00:36:48] I guess a big brother first that they win a reward and they're like, uh, we're good.

[00:36:53] We're good.

[00:36:53] There's always so much you can hear about.

[00:36:55] Uh, I guess was Dakota Johnson's iconic narration about she was, she went to the, uh, studying

[00:37:02] spiders in the Amazon before she died.

[00:37:03] Is that like the movie equivalent of people explaining a big brother competition for the umpteenth

[00:37:08] time in the diary room?

[00:37:10] Yeah.

[00:37:10] It's very loudly.

[00:37:11] She has to do it now.

[00:37:12] Also, there could be a little bit of a fear of, okay.

[00:37:15] So Zendaya went up on the block.

[00:37:17] Steven and Aracic went home.

[00:37:18] They were giving Spider-Man, maybe anything in the Spider-Man universe.

[00:37:23] So like, eh, that's cursed.

[00:37:24] I don't want to touch it.

[00:37:25] 2024, infamously the year of arachnophobia.

[00:37:27] You're right, Rob.

[00:37:28] Okay.

[00:37:28] New Jersey drone is on the block.

[00:37:31] Uh-oh.

[00:37:32] And they take time away from strategy to make the tortured houseguest department writing 31

[00:37:36] songs about the game.

[00:37:37] Now, this is incredibly intriguing to me.

[00:37:39] On a number of levels.

[00:37:41] Is it the drones themselves writing it?

[00:37:43] Or is it the person controlling them?

[00:37:45] I mean, that's the big question, right?

[00:37:46] Is who is controlling the Jersey drone?

[00:37:48] Or do they control themselves?

[00:37:49] Could this be an America's houseguest situation?

[00:37:51] Where it's actually Grodner as the drone pilot the entire time?

[00:37:54] You think this is like America's player?

[00:37:56] Exactly.

[00:37:57] It's like, all right, write these songs for the houseguest and you win 500 Dogecoin.

[00:38:04] Okay.

[00:38:05] And that's it.

[00:38:05] That's a quiet week in the house.

[00:38:07] Okay.

[00:38:07] So we'll see how well-received the New Jersey drones are.

[00:38:11] I mean, 31 songs is a lot.

[00:38:13] I know that Kimo and company were able to lift spirits by writing so many songs about the houseguest,

[00:38:18] but especially when, I don't know, is it a little insulting if you are someone who does

[00:38:23] not make music for a living and you go to four people who do and you're like, check out my

[00:38:27] tracks.

[00:38:28] These are fire.

[00:38:29] Yeah.

[00:38:30] Maybe for the New Jersey drone, that was a way of getting in with the musicians to drop

[00:38:34] so many songs.

[00:38:35] But I feel like that, you know, when people are trying to play music, like having like

[00:38:38] a very loud drone next to you is not ideal.

[00:38:42] Yeah.

[00:38:42] I did my own beat.

[00:38:48] Okay.

[00:38:48] So Mike, Pop-Tar mascot had a quiet week.

[00:38:50] New Jersey drone did a lot.

[00:38:52] Who do you think is going to go home?

[00:38:54] I think New Jersey drones made a little too much noise.

[00:38:57] It's tough to silence those things, Rob.

[00:38:58] I think Pop-Tart did pull the Dan Giesling move, right?

[00:39:01] Just laid down the entire time in hopes of not getting that down into the toaster,

[00:39:05] waiting just to pop up later as the Pop-Tart does.

[00:39:09] I mean, that's your famous edict for Big Brother strategy, right?

[00:39:11] It's the first half of the game, go into the toaster.

[00:39:13] Go into the toaster.

[00:39:14] And then you'll pop up.

[00:39:15] And then pop up later on.

[00:39:17] Okay.

[00:39:17] To try to win.

[00:39:18] All right.

[00:39:18] So let's just quickly look at the votes.

[00:39:22] We should be able to tell pretty soon.

[00:39:23] Okay.

[00:39:23] Charlie XCX votes.

[00:39:25] Oh, sadly votes to evict the Pop-Tart mascot.

[00:39:28] Uh-oh.

[00:39:29] Dude Pop-Roc bucket sadly votes to evict the Pop-Tart mascot.

[00:39:32] Only one object can live.

[00:39:33] Wow.

[00:39:35] Blanchard, Pop-Tart mascot.

[00:39:36] Oh, this could be unanimous.

[00:39:37] Okay.

[00:39:38] Hold on.

[00:39:38] Oh, wait a minute.

[00:39:39] Kendrick Lamar votes to evict the New Jersey drone.

[00:39:41] Okay.

[00:39:41] Is this a hinky vote on Kendrick's part?

[00:39:43] Okay.

[00:39:43] Menendez Bros.

[00:39:45] All right.

[00:39:46] All right.

[00:39:51] All right.

[00:39:56] All right.

[00:39:58] All right.

[00:40:12] Let me go.

[00:40:14] I need to be devoured by these, you know, massive 21-year-old men who just won a college bowl

[00:40:19] again.

[00:40:20] Can we go back to the eviction voting, Rob?

[00:40:21] Because I'm intrigued to see who the seven to four votes were.

[00:40:25] Because Kendrick Lamar voted outside of his alliance.

[00:40:29] Okay.

[00:40:29] Let's see.

[00:40:30] All right.

[00:40:31] So if we look at the votes, and there were seven votes to evict last week also.

[00:40:35] Yeah.

[00:40:35] I don't know if it would be the same seven.

[00:40:37] All right.

[00:40:38] Kendrick Lamar was one of the four.

[00:40:40] I know Ray Gunn was the second.

[00:40:42] Sabrina Carpenter.

[00:40:43] Sabrina Carpenter.

[00:40:44] And Zendaya.

[00:40:46] Okay.

[00:40:46] This is interesting.

[00:40:48] So I guess the question is, did the Music Alliance purposely plan a split vocal, as it

[00:40:55] were, to go in stereo instead of mono and decided to split their votes to hide their

[00:41:00] alliance?

[00:41:00] Were they trying to throw the blame onto others?

[00:41:03] It is a definitive split in what is probably the most solid alliance in the House so far.

[00:41:08] Okay.

[00:41:08] Look, it's early in the season.

[00:41:10] The people want to vote with the House.

[00:41:13] Don't know exactly what went on there.

[00:41:15] We'll have to see what happens next.

[00:41:17] Okay.

[00:41:17] We're down to 13 people left in the game.

[00:41:22] Mike, who's going to be our third HOH?

[00:41:25] Actually, I'm sorry.

[00:41:26] Let's go back to our alliances first.

[00:41:28] Yeah.

[00:41:28] So we've got the Menendez Brothers and the Rizzler.

[00:41:31] We've got a new alliance.

[00:41:32] We can call them Mendizler.

[00:41:33] The Mendizler.

[00:41:34] Sure.

[00:41:36] Yeah.

[00:41:36] It looks like we have a new alliance.

[00:41:37] And it actually kind of combines both here.

[00:41:40] So we have Chaperone and Charlie XCX from the Pop Princess Alliance.

[00:41:43] We have Mendizler.

[00:41:46] And then right in the middle, as it usually is, is the Dune Popcorn Bucket in the middle of the action.

[00:41:51] Okay.

[00:41:52] All right.

[00:41:52] Five people in this alliance.

[00:41:54] The biggest alliance of the season.

[00:41:56] Yeah.

[00:41:56] I'm intrigued by this.

[00:41:58] I'm not sure what their mutual interests are, but we should say Chaperone won an HOH.

[00:42:02] Dune Popcorn Bucket actually is the outgoing HOH.

[00:42:04] So I think she seeks a bit of protection across the board here.

[00:42:07] Dune Popcorn Bucket has won a veto.

[00:42:10] So, yeah.

[00:42:12] Five out of 13 is not exactly in.

[00:42:14] But the Dune Popcorn Bucket knows something about in.

[00:42:17] Okay.

[00:42:19] All right.

[00:42:20] Here we go.

[00:42:21] Here's our next HOH competition.

[00:42:22] And it comes down to Mudang, Zendaya, and Sabrina Carpenter.

[00:42:26] And our next HOH is going to be Sabrina Carpenter.

[00:42:30] Wow.

[00:42:30] Has just won the power of veto and now wins HOH.

[00:42:33] This reminds me of Big Brother All-Stars when season six won the first three HOHs.

[00:42:38] Like, are people starting to catch on here that there's something going on?

[00:42:42] Kendrick Lamar, Chaperone, Sabrina Carpenter, first three HOHs of the season from our Musicians

[00:42:48] Alliance.

[00:42:49] And Sabrina Carpenter goes to work and nominates Gypsy Rose Blanchard and the New Jersey Drone.

[00:42:57] I mean, her speeches are short and sweet.

[00:43:00] She basically says that, uh, Jersey Drones, you've been nominated beforehand.

[00:43:04] Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[00:43:05] I see what you're doing.

[00:43:07] I see what's happening right now.

[00:43:09] And unlike that alien at the BMA's performance, I am not embracing it kindly.

[00:43:14] Now, Sabrina Carpenter voted to evict the New Jersey drone in the last vote also.

[00:43:21] So, Sabrina Carpenter is no fan of the drone.

[00:43:23] Yeah.

[00:43:23] Really trying to take a stand here.

[00:43:25] Okay.

[00:43:26] Mike, it's the power of veto.

[00:43:27] So, Sabrina Carpenter is going to draw a chip.

[00:43:31] And it's Charlie XCX.

[00:43:33] Wow.

[00:43:33] The musicians are dominating.

[00:43:35] Oh, and there's so much malarkey online, right?

[00:43:37] Like, oh, it's fixed.

[00:43:39] The music industry is in the pocket of Big Brother.

[00:43:41] It's fixed.

[00:43:42] They know Ariana Grande, who's related to Frankie Grande.

[00:43:47] Exactly.

[00:43:48] Exactly.

[00:43:49] Exactly.

[00:43:49] Big music is in the ear of Big Brother this season.

[00:43:52] Gypsy Rose Blanchard draws Hawk to a Girl.

[00:43:58] Interesting.

[00:43:58] I mean, Hawk to a Girl has been pretty silent in this moment.

[00:44:01] I think at this point in her career, she's largely like, let me be seen and not heard for a little while.

[00:44:07] Because the more I talk, the more people remember the ups and downs on my career.

[00:44:12] So, she's been pretty quiet so far.

[00:44:13] All right.

[00:44:14] And then New Jersey Drone selects Ray Gun to participate.

[00:44:19] Ray Gun also voted to evict the New Jersey Drone at the last vote.

[00:44:23] Yeah, but the New Jersey Drone actually thinks that Ray Gun is a Ray Gun.

[00:44:27] And it's like, ah, yes, my fellow mechanical brethren.

[00:44:31] All right.

[00:44:32] So, our winner of the Power of Veto turns out to be Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[00:44:38] Oh, no, Sabrina.

[00:44:41] That plan blew up in your face.

[00:44:45] Okay.

[00:44:46] All right.

[00:44:47] So, now the Power of Veto gets won by Gypsy Rose Blanchard, who you don't want to get on her bad side.

[00:44:56] Definitely.

[00:44:57] Definitely not.

[00:44:58] And so, she is going to fire off at Sabrina Carpenter in her Veto meeting saying, like, don't you realize what I can do when I want vengeance?

[00:45:07] Sabrina Carpenter replies, so sue me for looking too pretty tonight.

[00:45:10] So, a bit of a rivalry brewing here, Rob.

[00:45:12] Who do you think is going to be the replacement nominee, Mike?

[00:45:15] I mean, it could be possible that she throws on...

[00:45:21] I mean, she's not working with the Doom Popcorn bucket, which has been nominated before.

[00:45:24] She's looking to keep her hands relatively clean, even though her act is not on tour.

[00:45:29] She may want to just throw on two people who have already been nominated so that she doesn't have to get any more blood on her hands.

[00:45:35] Could be the Doom Popcorn bucket.

[00:45:36] Could be Ray Gunn.

[00:45:38] Could be Hak Tua.

[00:45:38] Well, let's see.

[00:45:40] All right.

[00:45:40] So, Sabrina Carpenter will take...

[00:45:43] After Gypsy Rose Blanchard takes herself off the block, we will see Sabrina Carpenter has replaced her with...

[00:45:50] The Menendez Brothers!

[00:45:52] Wow!

[00:45:53] Major blindside.

[00:45:55] Blindside.

[00:45:55] Okay.

[00:45:56] I mean, listen, she's a former Disney Channel star.

[00:45:59] She knows her way around chaotic family situations, and she does not like what she sees.

[00:46:04] All right.

[00:46:04] The Menendez Brothers.

[00:46:06] All right.

[00:46:07] She's saying, like, listen, there's only one lurid person that can be in this house, okay?

[00:46:10] You Menendez Brothers are dirtying these waters too much.

[00:46:13] All right.

[00:46:13] So, let's go ahead and see what's happening in the house this week.

[00:46:18] Sabrina Carpenter and Hak Tua Girl, now they won screening to Madam Web, and they politely decline.

[00:46:23] I do love that it kind of is like every round as part of the veto.

[00:46:28] They're like, and the winner will also get two tickets to Madam Web.

[00:46:31] Please?

[00:46:32] Does anybody want to go to this?

[00:46:34] Will anybody go see Madam Web?

[00:46:35] No.

[00:46:36] Turns out nobody in 2024 wanted to see Madam Web.

[00:46:39] All right.

[00:46:40] The New Jersey drone is back and just fell out of a coconut tree.

[00:46:45] Now, how the hell does a drone fall out of a coconut tree?

[00:46:48] Loses power.

[00:46:49] You know, maybe Grodner was taking a break and it just kind of landed in the coconut tree and fell out.

[00:46:53] Well, poor, not Joseph Rodriguez, but Joey Rodriguez, Glenn, he just finally had all those coconuts in place.

[00:46:59] And then the New Jersey drone knocked them all ascoot.

[00:47:02] Okay.

[00:47:03] Next up, Chapel Rhone asked Mr. B for an unreasonable amount of baby oil.

[00:47:10] Okay.

[00:47:10] As long as it's not the Dune popcorn bucket.

[00:47:13] Yeah, Chapel Rhone.

[00:47:14] Uh-oh.

[00:47:15] Let's not follow these breadcrumbs any further.

[00:47:17] Mm-hmm.

[00:47:17] Okay.

[00:47:18] All right.

[00:47:19] Here we go.

[00:47:20] Eviction Night.

[00:47:21] Eviction Night number three.

[00:47:23] Boy, I hate to lose the Menendez brothers this early.

[00:47:26] Well, you know that they're going to come back 30 seasons later in a very different way than we remember them anyway.

[00:47:31] Yeah.

[00:47:31] They've got a big Stan audience.

[00:47:34] I would say so.

[00:47:36] Yeah.

[00:47:36] I think the legal, they're already raising a GoFundMe and that's not just for their legal fees.

[00:47:40] Mm-hmm.

[00:47:40] Okay.

[00:47:41] All right.

[00:47:41] So let's see the votes.

[00:47:44] Okay.

[00:47:45] Chapel Rhone.

[00:47:46] Okay.

[00:47:48] Sadly votes to evict the Menendez brothers.

[00:47:50] Are the Jersey Drones becoming the block stars of the season?

[00:47:53] Maybe.

[00:47:54] There's only one vote.

[00:47:54] Charlie XCX votes to evict New Jersey Drones.

[00:47:58] I don't know what's going on with this musical alliance.

[00:47:59] They keep voting away from each other.

[00:48:01] Dune popcorn bucket votes to evict Menendez brothers.

[00:48:05] Okay.

[00:48:05] We're tied.

[00:48:06] Two to two.

[00:48:07] Gypsy Rose Blanchard votes to evict the drones.

[00:48:09] Hawk Tua votes to evict the drones.

[00:48:12] Well, if you spit on that thing, it does malfunction.

[00:48:14] So yeah, not in a real house.

[00:48:16] You'll get spit right back in your face.

[00:48:17] It's not ideal.

[00:48:18] Okay.

[00:48:19] Kendrick Lamar votes to evict the drones.

[00:48:22] Mudang votes to evict the drones.

[00:48:25] I think the drones scare Mudang too much.

[00:48:27] Yeah.

[00:48:28] They don't.

[00:48:28] Mudang doesn't like it.

[00:48:29] So it ends up being only two votes.

[00:48:33] Only Chapel Rhone and the Dune popcorn bucket vote to evict the Menendez brothers.

[00:48:40] And so the Menendez brothers are staying.

[00:48:43] New Jersey drone, sadly, has to go.

[00:48:47] Now, do you think it was purposeful on the point of Chapel Rhone and the Dune popcorn bucket

[00:48:51] to be like, we need one vote for each Menendez brother.

[00:48:54] It's only fitting that you came in as two.

[00:48:56] You walk out as two votes.

[00:48:57] Do you think that one sadly voted to evict Lyle and the other voted to evict Eric?

[00:49:03] Hello, Julie.

[00:49:04] You look ravishing.

[00:49:06] I wrote to evict Eric Menendez.

[00:49:10] Shout out all my worms at the crib.

[00:49:12] Mm-hmm.

[00:49:14] All right.

[00:49:15] So sadly, the New Jersey drones will no longer be flying in the Big Brother house.

[00:49:20] Thank goodness.

[00:49:21] They've been quite disquieting to me.

[00:49:22] Mm-hmm.

[00:49:23] And there's been so many conspiracy theories online about, you know, what their strategy

[00:49:27] is and everything.

[00:49:28] Yeah, they got a little bit of like a creepy edit as well.

[00:49:30] Like, you know, I walked out of the bathroom and it just kept hovering around me.

[00:49:34] Like, I don't know how to get rid of it.

[00:49:36] Okay.

[00:49:36] I don't even know what it's doing.

[00:49:37] It's not even speaking.

[00:49:39] Mike, we are down to, believe it or not, there's only, uh, how many people left in the house?

[00:49:46] 12.

[00:49:47] A dirty dozen.

[00:49:47] Yeah.

[00:49:48] All right.

[00:49:49] Let's see.

[00:49:50] Our week four HOH.

[00:49:52] Now, will the, uh...

[00:49:53] Our alliances.

[00:49:54] Well, let's check.

[00:49:55] I think there might be some alliances going on.

[00:49:56] So we have Menendezler that survived the week.

[00:49:59] We have our musical...

[00:50:01] Pop stars.

[00:50:01] Pop stars have been topping the charts of the power rankings here, of winning every HOH so far.

[00:50:07] We'll see if that streak is broken.

[00:50:09] Okay.

[00:50:09] Got the pop princesses, who are also sort of like an alliance within the alliance.

[00:50:12] We have this mishmash of a fivesome going on.

[00:50:16] Uh, so nothing, nothing changing in the moment, but anything can happen in the Big Brother house.

[00:50:21] Let's see.

[00:50:21] Can the pop stars keep it going in week four?

[00:50:25] Let's see.

[00:50:26] Our, uh, nominees...

[00:50:27] Oh, no.

[00:50:28] None of the pop stars are here.

[00:50:29] It's Hawk Tua, Menendez Brothers, and Zendaya.

[00:50:32] Okay.

[00:50:33] Uh, could someone be the Jessica from Big Brother 21 here and truly break the combo?

[00:50:37] Okay.

[00:50:38] Let's see.

[00:50:38] The new HOH in week four is Zendaya.

[00:50:42] Zendaya.

[00:50:42] There we go.

[00:50:44] Aces.

[00:50:45] She is finally on top here.

[00:50:47] Uh, one of the hardest working people in Hollywood.

[00:50:49] I think, I think she has some deep-seated revenge against KDOT here.

[00:50:53] Okay.

[00:50:53] Let's see what Zendaya does with an HOH.

[00:50:57] Uh, Zendaya was on the block in week one.

[00:50:59] Kendrick Lamar put Zendaya on the block with the Doom Popcorn Bucket.

[00:51:03] Uh, Doom Popcorn Bucket won the power of Vito.

[00:51:06] Steven Neterosik was the replacement nominee.

[00:51:08] He went home.

[00:51:09] What does Zendaya have up her sleeve?

[00:51:12] Uh, well, they're metal sleeves, if you remember what she wore at the Doom, uh, red carpet.

[00:51:17] So, I would imagine a lot of stink.

[00:51:20] Chapel Rhone and Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[00:51:23] Uh, so-

[00:51:23] Mike, is this a situation where is Chapel Rhone the target and Gypsy Rose Blanchard as a pawn?

[00:51:29] I mean, these are two of the people that have won competition so far.

[00:51:34] It should be noted that Chapel Rhone won an HOH.

[00:51:36] Gypsy Rose Blanchard, of course, won the most recent Vito.

[00:51:38] So, she might be headhunting of it.

[00:51:42] You know, she knows how to target some people that have a lot of skills to them.

[00:51:47] And I think those are the two people she might be eyeing out.

[00:51:49] We also know Zendaya could have a grand master plan and might be toying with these two,

[00:51:54] pitting them against each other as well.

[00:51:56] Okay.

[00:51:56] Let's go to our Vito draw.

[00:51:59] Zendaya selects Hawk Tua.

[00:52:05] Chapel Rhone has selected the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[00:52:11] And Gypsy Rose Blanchard draws the Menendez Brothers.

[00:52:15] Okay.

[00:52:16] Okay.

[00:52:16] This is a...

[00:52:16] I mean, listen.

[00:52:17] Now the Alliance is wishing they had the draw they had a couple weeks ago, right?

[00:52:20] Because it is only Chapel Rhone participating on their behalf.

[00:52:24] From the Popstars.

[00:52:25] Yeah.

[00:52:25] When she seemingly would have three outs.

[00:52:26] Though it should be noted, Dune Popcorn Bucket and the Menendez Brothers are in an alliance with her.

[00:52:30] Okay.

[00:52:31] All right.

[00:52:32] So it comes down to Zendaya Menendez Brothers and Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[00:52:36] And the winner of the fourth Vito is Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[00:52:43] Vito Queen.

[00:52:44] Two for two right now.

[00:52:46] Two in a row.

[00:52:47] Winning it when she needs it most here.

[00:52:50] She is able to skirt by and evade, I guess what, like permanent imprisonment in the outside world.

[00:52:57] Despite the fact that she kind of was entering her own version of confinement in the form of the Big Brother House.

[00:53:01] All right.

[00:53:01] So Gypsy Rose Blanchard is going to use the power of Vito on herself.

[00:53:05] And Zendaya has a decision to make.

[00:53:07] What do you think?

[00:53:08] It ends up being a pop star?

[00:53:09] I think it's going to be a pop star because Zendaya is...

[00:53:12] I mean, I would say either a pop star or someone who is in that big five-person alliance.

[00:53:16] So we could see the Menendez Brothers go up again.

[00:53:18] We could see the Dune Popcorn Bucket go up again.

[00:53:20] Or this could have been one big plan to backdoor Kendrick Lamar.

[00:53:26] We know that the Dune Popcorn Bucket doesn't work with backdoors.

[00:53:29] Do you think that Gypsy Rose Blanchard ends up...

[00:53:32] Was she in on it?

[00:53:33] Was it the idea to feed the Vito to Gypsy Rose Blanchard?

[00:53:37] I think they were convincing Gypsy Rose Blanchard that she was the target.

[00:53:41] Really saying like, no, no, no.

[00:53:43] You don't understand.

[00:53:43] You're the target.

[00:53:44] Sort of like a Vito Munchausen's by proxy, if you will.

[00:53:48] And then she eventually realized that she had that power.

[00:53:50] And it wasn't an effort to get her to win the Vito.

[00:53:52] To really go for it.

[00:53:53] To ray gun for it, if you will.

[00:53:54] So that she'll be able to enact her plan.

[00:53:57] All right.

[00:53:57] So Zendaya has revealed the new nominee is going to be XCX.

[00:54:05] Charlie XCX.

[00:54:07] Zendaya, your power.

[00:54:08] Look what she was able to do, Rob.

[00:54:10] This alliance controlled the house for the first three weeks of the game.

[00:54:15] And now the apple has officially fallen from the tree.

[00:54:20] Complete with viral choreography.

[00:54:21] Yes.

[00:54:25] Let's see what's happening in the house this week.

[00:54:27] Okay.

[00:54:28] Charlie XCX irrationally lashes out at Kendrick Lamar.

[00:54:33] Like, yeah, he was the figurehead behind this whole alliance.

[00:54:36] He got it all started in week one.

[00:54:37] Well, also Charlie XCX, you know, she's going through a lot of emotions in her head.

[00:54:41] I think she let anxiety take over a little bit.

[00:54:44] And that anxiety then allowed her to really take things out on honestly someone who was one of her closest allies in the house.

[00:54:50] And if she survives, we'll see how well that reflects on her.

[00:54:53] Okay.

[00:54:54] The Rizsler and Hak Tua.

[00:54:55] I am very nervous to scroll down and see what's happening.

[00:55:00] The Rizsler and Hak Tua got tickets to see Madam Web in the HOH room.

[00:55:03] And they're like, you cannot get the Rizsler to go see Madam Web.

[00:55:07] No, he's not.

[00:55:08] Listen.

[00:55:09] He gives it the doom.

[00:55:11] Exactly.

[00:55:12] It's the only thing that doesn't get five booms at this point.

[00:55:15] Also should be mentioned that the two of them were invited.

[00:55:18] And the bucket's like, did you say dune?

[00:55:21] Is that what you're giving?

[00:55:22] But they got invited in the two previous screenings.

[00:55:26] They both declined.

[00:55:26] Maybe they were like, all right, I think this combination should work.

[00:55:29] But no one's going to see Madam Web.

[00:55:32] Is it rated PG-13?

[00:55:33] Is the Rizsler old enough to see it?

[00:55:36] Maybe the Rizsler has sort of like an Andy Milonakis thing.

[00:55:38] Or maybe he's a lot older than we might think.

[00:55:39] How old is the Rizsler?

[00:55:40] Yeah.

[00:55:41] Okay.

[00:55:42] Next up, Sabrina Carpenter.

[00:55:45] She's caught for her double dealing in the DR.

[00:55:47] She tells the DR this is going to ruin the tour.

[00:55:50] The world tour.

[00:55:51] It's at stake, Rob.

[00:55:53] Okay.

[00:55:54] Much like poor Mr. Timberlake.

[00:55:56] All right.

[00:55:56] But she's not saying bye, bye, bye anytime soon.

[00:55:58] She's not on the block.

[00:55:59] Next up, Ray Gunn just fell out of the coconut tree.

[00:56:02] I could see that.

[00:56:03] Ray Gunn is not very coordinated.

[00:56:05] Yeah.

[00:56:05] And I would imagine of all the places to try your braid dancing look, she probably wants

[00:56:09] to get far enough away from everybody.

[00:56:12] Of course, a lot of unfortunate embarrassment around her incident.

[00:56:14] So she climbed up to the top of the tree and just absolutely head planted out of it.

[00:56:19] But the good news is, Rob, she landed on her head and then she promptly spun out of it.

[00:56:22] That's perfect.

[00:56:23] Okay.

[00:56:24] Okay.

[00:56:24] And the Menendez brothers break down and threatened to quit.

[00:56:28] Look, they have been through a lot.

[00:56:31] Yeah.

[00:56:31] Listen, it's the pressure is finally getting to them at this point, but at least they have

[00:56:36] each other, Rob, to let off some steam.

[00:56:38] Mm-hmm.

[00:56:38] All right.

[00:56:41] So let's see what's going to happen.

[00:56:43] All right.

[00:56:44] Eviction night.

[00:56:45] Chapel Rhone and Charlie XCX.

[00:56:47] One of these pop divas will go home in week four.

[00:56:53] Tonight, there are nine votes to evict.

[00:56:58] Dune Popcorn Bucket, sadly.

[00:57:03] Evotes to evict.

[00:57:05] Charlie XCX.

[00:57:07] I evote to evict.

[00:57:08] Just call me Big Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[00:57:15] Gypsy Rose Blanchard votes to evict Chapel Rhone.

[00:57:19] Oh, okay.

[00:57:20] Haktua votes to evict Chapel Rhone.

[00:57:24] Kendrick Lamar votes to evict Charlie XCX.

[00:57:27] Even after-

[00:57:28] I mean, they got smoke.

[00:57:29] Charlie did lash out at Kendrick, and Kendrick does not take kindly to that.

[00:57:32] Okay.

[00:57:32] All right.

[00:57:33] Two to two.

[00:57:34] Five votes left.

[00:57:35] Menendez brothers votes to evict Charlie XCX.

[00:57:39] Mudang votes to evict Charlie XCX.

[00:57:42] Uh-oh.

[00:57:43] Ray Gunn votes to evict Chapel Rhone.

[00:57:45] Oh, it's getting close.

[00:57:47] And we're at-

[00:57:48] So it takes-

[00:57:48] It's nine votes because we're at our 12, so.

[00:57:50] Yeah.

[00:57:51] It's four to three.

[00:57:51] Okay.

[00:57:52] Chapel-

[00:57:53] I'm sorry.

[00:57:53] Sabrina Carpenter votes to evict.

[00:57:55] Chapel Rhone.

[00:57:56] The Rizsler has the deciding vote.

[00:57:58] The Rizsler.

[00:57:59] The Rizsler.

[00:58:00] You know what?

[00:58:02] Let's go to the next page.

[00:58:04] Yeah, let's see.

[00:58:04] Okay.

[00:58:04] Woo-hoo!

[00:58:05] All right.

[00:58:05] By a vote of five to four.

[00:58:09] Charlie XCX.

[00:58:10] You get evicted.

[00:58:12] I mean, they didn't say Brad Summer would last long.

[00:58:15] Uh, I'm sure she is blindsided here.

[00:58:18] She is asking a girl so confusing.

[00:58:20] And frankly, I agree, Rob.

[00:58:23] I'm intrigued to see how these votes went as we, uh, pen Brett.

[00:58:29] And it's the same, but she's evicted by a vote of five to four.

[00:58:32] Yeah.

[00:58:32] So, uh, the five votes were, uh, the Rizsler.

[00:58:36] Uh, what?

[00:58:38] Kendrick Lamar.

[00:58:39] The Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[00:58:41] Uh, then, uh, who else was it?

[00:58:45] Haktura?

[00:58:46] No.

[00:58:46] Menendez Brothers.

[00:58:47] Okay.

[00:58:48] Menendez Brothers and Mudang.

[00:58:52] See, this is interesting because the Rizsler, the Menendez Brothers, and the Dune Popcorn Bucket,

[00:58:56] weren't they all in an alliance with-

[00:58:58] But I guess they had to choose between their two allies, right?

[00:59:00] It was Chapel Roan versus Charlie XCX, though.

[00:59:02] They just like Chapel more.

[00:59:05] Uh, and so, listen, it's always going to be a battle as to which pop princess do you like

[00:59:09] the most out of 2024.

[00:59:10] And unfortunately, Charlie ends up losing the battle here.

[00:59:13] But listen, you're perfect.

[00:59:15] You're sick nasty.

[00:59:17] You look great in neon green.

[00:59:19] You look like a minion.

[00:59:20] Mm-hmm.

[00:59:21] All right, Mike.

[00:59:23] We're down to 11 people left in the game.

[00:59:26] Okay?

[00:59:27] Here we go.

[00:59:28] Week five coming up.

[00:59:30] All right.

[00:59:31] We know about-

[00:59:32] What do you call this alliance?

[00:59:34] Menendezler.

[00:59:35] Menendezler.

[00:59:36] All right.

[00:59:37] Then, uh, okay, we have our pop stars, uh, with all three minus Charlie XCX, but then

[00:59:45] the pop princesses are down to just Chapel Roan and Sabrina Carpenter.

[00:59:48] Yeah, I think Kendrick is still kind of the tertiary point of this triangle.

[00:59:52] I don't know if he is aware of that, but I think Chapel and Sabrina have really locked

[00:59:57] in their loyalty to each other.

[00:59:58] Okay.

[00:59:59] Then we have our, uh, formerly five-person alliance.

[01:00:02] It's down to just Chapel Roan, the Doom Popcorn Bucket, the Menendez brothers, and the Rizsler.

[01:00:07] Oh, boy.

[01:00:08] So, listen, they had a tough choosing here, but it looks like, Rob, there might be some more

[01:00:13] stuff happening in the house.

[01:00:14] Now, the Menendez brothers and the Rizsler have dissolved their alliance.

[01:00:19] Menendezler was not meant to be.

[01:00:21] Now, they still have the four-person alliance.

[01:00:24] We'll see if that sticks together.

[01:00:26] Yeah, I mean, maybe it was a thing where they were really split as to whether to vote out

[01:00:30] Chapel or Charlie.

[01:00:32] I think that, you know, the Menendez maybe saw themselves more in Charlie of the brat

[01:00:36] culture, whereas the Rizsler was more of a trapped Chapel person.

[01:00:39] And so, that split, unfortunately, may have caused the two of them to break up from a more

[01:00:44] intimate variety.

[01:00:46] But they're like, okay, we'll keep it together for the sake of the alliance.

[01:00:49] We'll make sure that we're still working together here.

[01:00:51] Okay.

[01:00:52] All right.

[01:00:53] Let's go to our fifth HOH competition.

[01:00:57] And here we have, it comes down to interesting group, Mudang, the Rizsler, and the Doom Popcorn

[01:01:03] Bucket.

[01:01:04] Really, the three stooges of 2024.

[01:01:05] 2024.

[01:01:06] Okay.

[01:01:07] And the winner ends up being the Doom Popcorn Bucket.

[01:01:12] All right.

[01:01:13] Give me that key, bitch.

[01:01:15] All right.

[01:01:15] So, the Doom Popcorn Bucket and Zendaya, they sat on the block in week one, and now they

[01:01:21] are consecutive HOHs in weeks four and five.

[01:01:25] And so...

[01:01:26] Yeah, that's why you never count the Fremen out, Rob.

[01:01:28] They know how to walk their way through this house, much like they wind through the sand.

[01:01:31] All right.

[01:01:32] So, now, for a change, the Doom Bucket is about to be doing the screwing.

[01:01:41] Exactly.

[01:01:42] The tables have turned in that regard.

[01:01:45] And so, grab your popcorn, folks.

[01:01:48] It's going to be a very fun week here in the house.

[01:01:51] All right.

[01:01:51] So, the Doom Popcorn Bucket could have revenge on the mind.

[01:01:55] It could be another bad week for the pop stars.

[01:01:59] From the popcorn to the pop stars.

[01:02:01] Let's see who the nominees are.

[01:02:03] It's Sabrina Carpenter and Ray Gunn.

[01:02:06] Ray Gunn's got to be a Ray Goat, right?

[01:02:09] Like, she's got to be a pawn at this point.

[01:02:12] I think Dune is headhunting a bit, is going for the musicians, trying to finish off that

[01:02:18] group.

[01:02:18] Yeah.

[01:02:18] So, Sabrina Carpenter makes sense, and Kendrick, I think, is lying in wait as a backdoor option.

[01:02:21] Maybe you don't want to make two enemies if you're the Doom Popcorn Bucket right now.

[01:02:26] Maybe the target is Sabrina Carpenter.

[01:02:28] Maybe ends up with Ray Gunn winning the veto.

[01:02:31] Maybe you could backdoor somebody else.

[01:02:33] But for right now, maybe you don't want to just alienate too many people.

[01:02:37] Yes, exactly.

[01:02:37] But Sabrina Carpenter knows a thing about aliens, so she's more than fine with that.

[01:02:40] Okay.

[01:02:41] Let's go to our power veto.

[01:02:43] Doom Popcorn Bucket reaches into itself and pulls out Gypsy Rose Blanchard's chip.

[01:02:48] Shouldn't that cause a paradox if a bucket reaches into itself?

[01:02:51] No, it just spits it out.

[01:02:53] Okay?

[01:02:54] Then, Sabrina Carpenter ends up getting Zendaya.

[01:02:58] Ooh.

[01:02:59] Okay.

[01:02:59] Bad draw so far for Sabrina Carpenter.

[01:03:01] And then Ray Gunn ends up drawing the Rizzler.

[01:03:05] All right.

[01:03:06] Pretty even field here.

[01:03:08] I mean, Sabrina is missing a couple of her key allies.

[01:03:11] But look, she's won clutch competitions in the past.

[01:03:13] She might be able to replicate it here.

[01:03:15] All right.

[01:03:16] So it's Otev.

[01:03:19] All right.

[01:03:20] So Otev comes down to Zendaya, the Doom Popcorn Bucket, and Ray Gun.

[01:03:24] And the winner of the Power of Vito ends up being Zendaya.

[01:03:29] Oh, and I will say the Otev this year is actually themed after the unknown from the Glasgow Willy Wonka experience.

[01:03:36] So it's just a sort of like odd masked man that asks for pieces of loose candy to search for amongst the backyard.

[01:03:42] All right.

[01:03:43] Mike, let's go ahead and see what Zendaya does.

[01:03:47] I expect Zendaya to not use the Power of Vito.

[01:03:50] Yeah.

[01:03:50] I would imagine that Zendaya and the Doom Popcorn Bucket are hand in hand.

[01:03:53] And by that, I mean hand in bucket.

[01:03:55] And she is not going to break its wishes unless the Doom Popcorn Bucket has a bigger plan that they are working towards.

[01:04:02] I think the knobs are going to stay the same here.

[01:04:04] Okay.

[01:04:05] All right.

[01:04:06] So Zendaya decides to not use the Power of Vito.

[01:04:10] Okay.

[01:04:11] So this is interesting because, look, we've just been through Big Brother 26.

[01:04:14] We know that nothing is truly set in stone.

[01:04:19] And so despite the fact that maybe Ray Gun volunteered to go up there and could be seen as a pawn to get rid of Sabrina Carpenter, who is the bigger threat, there's a very good chance this house, much like in two 2024 fashion, could flip on a dime.

[01:04:33] And Ray Gun knows a thing or two about flipping.

[01:04:36] Allegedly.

[01:04:37] Okay.

[01:04:38] Attempted flips.

[01:04:39] All right.

[01:04:39] So let's see what's happening in the house this week.

[01:04:42] The Menendez brothers complete a secret task, winning a golden ticket to see the Willy Wonka experience at Glasgow.

[01:04:48] It was Willy Wonka week.

[01:04:50] Yes.

[01:04:50] They're like, oh, is this the punishment for what we did?

[01:04:52] This is the hell we have to go through now?

[01:04:54] Mm-hmm.

[01:04:54] Okay.

[01:04:56] Then we end up having, due to the mental stress of the game, the Menendez brothers isolate themselves from the rest of the house.

[01:05:03] I mean, they're going to just when they isolate themselves.

[01:05:05] They're not really isolating themselves.

[01:05:07] Or maybe they're doing it for other reasons.

[01:05:09] Mm-hmm.

[01:05:10] Okay.

[01:05:11] All right.

[01:05:13] Then, Chapel Rohn and Sabrina Carpenter fight over who gets to use the last Stanley Cup at dinner.

[01:05:19] Don't get between a white woman and their Stanley Cup, Rob.

[01:05:22] This is a rule of thumb.

[01:05:23] Is this a little trouble in paradise, Mike, with the pop stars?

[01:05:26] I mean, listen, we saw how much the shaker bottles were a concern back in Big Brother 21.

[01:05:30] We know from the Big Brother house, just the minute living, the smallest fracture can turn into an earthquake, much like the many we experienced this year.

[01:05:40] Okay.

[01:05:40] Then, let's go ahead and get to the Menendez brothers and Ray Gun.

[01:05:45] They flip the mattress on the bed of Ray Gun.

[01:05:48] And then she flips it right back and starts doing moves.

[01:05:52] Yeah.

[01:05:53] Oh, that's a good one.

[01:05:54] I'm going to try it.

[01:05:55] It's called the mattress.

[01:05:55] Yeah, you could flip Ray Gun's mattress and Ray Gun will appreciate that.

[01:06:00] Yeah, I think she'd see it as an inspiration, you know, as encouraging her behavior.

[01:06:05] Okay.

[01:06:06] Then, finally, Chapel Rohn just fell out of a coconut tree.

[01:06:09] Please stay out of that coconut tree.

[01:06:11] Well, the problem is, Rob, she got so much freaking baby oil that she's as slick as an eel.

[01:06:15] Maybe some coconut oil on that tree.

[01:06:18] Yeah, she climbs up and falls out.

[01:06:19] Okay.

[01:06:20] All right.

[01:06:21] Mike, let's go to eviction night, okay?

[01:06:23] Eight votes to evict tonight.

[01:06:25] Right.

[01:06:25] So, it's really how much do people see Sabrina Carpenter as this big threat they need to gun for versus Ray Gun for?

[01:06:36] Of someone who could be a bit more of a wild card, someone that is not as big of a threat,

[01:06:41] but is this someone that you want to necessarily float, flip, dance their way through the game?

[01:06:47] All right.

[01:06:48] Let's go to our votes.

[01:06:50] Chapel Rohn, we expect to evict Ray Gun.

[01:06:53] Let's see.

[01:06:55] Chapel Rohn votes to evict Ray Gun.

[01:06:57] Let's go for Kendrick next.

[01:07:00] Kendrick Lamar, sadly votes to evict Ray Gun.

[01:07:03] Okay.

[01:07:04] Okay.

[01:07:05] The other ones are really wild cards.

[01:07:07] Gypsy Rose Blancher.

[01:07:08] Let's see where her cards lie.

[01:07:11] She votes to evict Sabrina Carpenter.

[01:07:13] Hawk 2 has been quiet.

[01:07:14] She's going to vote to evict Sabrina Carpenter.

[01:07:17] It's tied.

[01:07:18] 2-2.

[01:07:19] And we have eight votes.

[01:07:20] Okay.

[01:07:20] The Menendez brothers.

[01:07:22] I think they're probably going to vote to evict Sabrina.

[01:07:25] Let's see.

[01:07:26] Ray Gun.

[01:07:27] Remember, they flipped her mattress.

[01:07:28] That's true.

[01:07:29] Mu Dang.

[01:07:30] Very quiet.

[01:07:31] Has voted to evict Sabrina Carpenter.

[01:07:33] Wow.

[01:07:33] These votes have been tight.

[01:07:34] 3-3.

[01:07:35] More like Hu Dang.

[01:07:36] What has Mu Dang been doing this entire game?

[01:07:38] Zendaya.

[01:07:38] Okay.

[01:07:40] Was gunning after the musicians last week when she was HOH.

[01:07:45] Votes to evict Sabrina Carpenter.

[01:07:47] Okay.

[01:07:48] Comes down to the Rizler once again.

[01:07:50] The Rizler, the Keystone State here.

[01:07:53] The Rizler voted to evict Charlie XCX at the last vote.

[01:07:56] The Rizler votes to evict Sabrina Carpenter by a vote of 5-3.

[01:08:03] Sabrina Carpenter will be evicted.

[01:08:06] Well, the issue was she was working late because she's a singer, Rob.

[01:08:10] And a lot of people saw that as too threatening, that she had her foot too much on the gas pedal.

[01:08:16] And so they decided to promptly keep that towel on, not let her reveal more of her game.

[01:08:22] But look, Rob, as she leaves the house, she is warmly greeted by the one, the only Domingo.

[01:08:28] And she's going to go home happy.

[01:08:30] Okay.

[01:08:30] All right.

[01:08:31] So, yeah.

[01:08:32] Back to back, Sabrina Carpenter and Charlie XCX.

[01:08:36] What a fall from grace for the musicians.

[01:08:39] Yeah.

[01:08:39] You know, Barry Kogan and the other hot rodent men are pumping their fists in the news of this.

[01:08:47] All right, Mike.

[01:08:47] Week six after a big power shift in the house, the pop stars were running it.

[01:08:53] Zendaya and the Dune popcorn bucket struck back with two big blows in a row.

[01:09:00] Yeah.

[01:09:00] I mean, they told Sabrina Carpenter, have you ever tried this one?

[01:09:03] And threw her up promptly on the block.

[01:09:06] Hell of a position to get screwed in in so many ways.

[01:09:09] Okay.

[01:09:09] All right.

[01:09:09] We're down to our final 10.

[01:09:11] I think this is going to be the last person who does not make our jury in 2024.

[01:09:15] Oh, that is going to be rough.

[01:09:19] We shall see who gets to miss out on that illustrious experience.

[01:09:22] Getting to, I don't know, hear from all the stories about the other cast members after the season in TikTok lives as to who was causing a ruckus,

[01:09:29] who was asking the pool boy about what was going on in the outside world,

[01:09:33] who was running up the hill outside the house.

[01:09:36] Plenty of stories to come out in the jury house.

[01:09:37] But unfortunately, Rob, one person will be left on the outside looking in.

[01:09:41] All right.

[01:09:41] Let's see our sixth HOH after our alliances.

[01:09:44] Okay.

[01:09:46] Chapel Roan and Kendrick Lamar, all that's left of the pop stars.

[01:09:50] They still have their four-person alliance with the Mendizler.

[01:09:54] Yes, exactly.

[01:09:55] So now it's become a bit of a, become a bit of like a, I guess, double date, right?

[01:09:59] Like double date and with a nice little popcorn bucket in honor of the movies where those are the only alliances at this point.

[01:10:05] Otherwise, we're looking at things like, you know, Hawk Tua, Ray Gun, Mudang.

[01:10:12] They've all been pretty quiet up to this point.

[01:10:14] They've been able to survive in that way.

[01:10:16] But listen, we're getting to the second half when the afterburners really need to get turned on.

[01:10:21] And we'll see.

[01:10:22] The Dune popcorn bucket already knows about being turned on.

[01:10:24] Right.

[01:10:25] Is the popcorn bucket perpetually turned on?

[01:10:28] Or is it asexual and serves a purpose?

[01:10:29] What a great question we're posing here, Rob.

[01:10:31] Does the Dune popcorn bucket give consent to its users?

[01:10:35] I would assume so.

[01:10:36] Otherwise, there would be a lot of moral lines we have to cross.

[01:10:39] So again, Dune is all about those moral lines and crossing them promptly.

[01:10:42] All right.

[01:10:43] Well, let's see that the New Jersey drone is no longer in the house, but it is a house full of floaters.

[01:10:47] And one of them may be the new HOH.

[01:10:50] So let's see.

[01:10:52] Our new HOH will be one of either Hawk Tua Girl, Chapel Roan, Ray Gun, big HOH for Chapel Roan.

[01:10:59] Who's looking to stop the bleeding.

[01:11:02] And let's see if the new HOH is going to be Hawk Tua Girl.

[01:11:08] Ah, win on that thing.

[01:11:10] Yes.

[01:11:10] Hawk Tua comes out of nowhere to have her stock promptly rise as she finds herself in the HOH room.

[01:11:18] Bye.

[01:11:19] Yeah.

[01:11:20] HO Hawk Tua.

[01:11:22] Okay.

[01:11:22] All right.

[01:11:23] So Hawk Tua Girl has now risen to power.

[01:11:26] And let's see what she does with it.

[01:11:29] A fellow podcaster, a host of Talk Tua.

[01:11:32] Does she keep that close to her chest?

[01:11:34] Is she going to lie about her career?

[01:11:36] Will she not tell people?

[01:11:39] That she's a podcaster.

[01:11:40] Because that's a threatening profession, Rob.

[01:11:42] I'm not sure if you watch Survivor 47.

[01:11:44] Yeah.

[01:11:44] Okay.

[01:11:44] Well, let's see.

[01:11:46] Could be the most successful podcaster of reality TV.

[01:11:50] All right.

[01:11:51] So Hawk Tua Girl, she is going to the nomination ceremony and ends up spitting out a couple nominees.

[01:11:59] They are...

[01:12:01] Oh, blew it.

[01:12:03] Okay.

[01:12:03] Hold on.

[01:12:03] Let me go back to the nominees.

[01:12:05] And they are...

[01:12:07] Menendez Brothers and Chapel Rhone.

[01:12:09] Yeah.

[01:12:09] So trying to fracture one of the only cohesive alliances left in the game.

[01:12:15] Listen, Hawk Tua may have been caught a bit red-handed in the real world, but otherwise she's fairly crafty.

[01:12:20] You know?

[01:12:20] She's a little slippery in the way that she navigates things.

[01:12:23] And so it's a really fantastically well-aimed shot that she makes here right on target.

[01:12:28] Accuracy is one of her greatest facets.

[01:12:31] And now we are once again possibly facing a situation where, much like the pop stars a couple weeks ago,

[01:12:36] the double-daters will have to choose between them as to who's going to go here.

[01:12:40] Okay.

[01:12:40] Let's see our Power of Veto nominees.

[01:12:44] And so Hawk Tua, she ends up drawing Kendrick Lamar.

[01:12:49] Probably not her ideal draw.

[01:12:51] No, I would say so.

[01:12:53] Okay.

[01:12:54] Then Menendez Bros are going to draw the Rizzler.

[01:12:57] Okay.

[01:12:58] Men Dizzler is in the full effect.

[01:13:00] Yeah.

[01:13:00] This is a great draw for Chapel Rhone as well.

[01:13:02] Remember, she's got a lot of outs in this house.

[01:13:04] And Chapel Rhone draws Ray Gunn.

[01:13:08] Okay.

[01:13:08] A little bit of a wild card.

[01:13:10] By the way, Menendez Bros got houseguest choice and selected their number one bro, the Rizzler.

[01:13:16] How could you not?

[01:13:17] Of course.

[01:13:18] Let's really take that out of context.

[01:13:21] The Rizzler, the number one bro of the Menendez Brothers.

[01:13:23] They say, we'll call you Rizzler Mendoza.

[01:13:26] You're practically one of us.

[01:13:28] All right.

[01:13:29] So, Mike, let's go ahead and check out our Veto competition.

[01:13:34] And the winner of the Power of Veto ends up being Haktua.

[01:13:39] Okay.

[01:13:40] First HOH to win Veto.

[01:13:42] There we go.

[01:13:44] She's won two competitions this week.

[01:13:46] Okay.

[01:13:48] Will Haktua change one of her own nominations?

[01:13:52] See, this is interesting because Haktua actually went to Chapel Rhone being like, okay, do you want me to use the Veto on you or not?

[01:14:01] And she said, for personal reasons, I cannot endorse you using the Veto on me.

[01:14:06] Very controversial, Rob.

[01:14:08] Controversial opinion from Chapel Rhone.

[01:14:10] Okay.

[01:14:11] Haktua will decide to not use the Power of Veto.

[01:14:16] Yeah.

[01:14:17] Chapel Rhone, she had that opportunity and she blew it here.

[01:14:20] She stood on her victories.

[01:14:21] But hey, you know, she thought that she had a lot of great connections.

[01:14:24] I heard, Rob, she actually met people at Coachella, much like Cat and Holly did back in the day.

[01:14:29] I mean, she was headlining, so I think she met about like 20,000 people or so at Coachella.

[01:14:33] All right.

[01:14:35] Haktua also is headlining.

[01:14:40] I mean, she did throw out the first pitch, Rob, so maybe she's good at those Veto competitions.

[01:14:43] Okay.

[01:14:44] All right.

[01:14:45] Let's go to our house events for the week.

[01:14:49] All right.

[01:14:50] Dune Popcorn Bucket builds a monument to an eliminated houseguest in the vein of the Dwayne Wade statue.

[01:14:55] It's not well received.

[01:14:57] Which houseguest was it?

[01:14:58] Oh, it's obviously the Pop-Tart mascot, right?

[01:15:00] Yeah, Pop-Tart mascot would be a perfect statue.

[01:15:02] I mean, honestly, if the Pop-Tart mascot was made in the vein of the Dwayne Wade statue,

[01:15:06] I actually think it would look better than the nightmare we faced when that Pop-Tart mascot was eaten.

[01:15:12] Okay.

[01:15:14] Then, Chapel Rhone and Gypsy Rose Blanchard have a heated argument.

[01:15:17] Over what, Mike?

[01:15:18] I mean, I think that Gypsy is somebody who wants to really, again, foister independence.

[01:15:25] She is somebody that is all about going out on her own.

[01:15:27] And she is also somebody who, I would say, has made more marked moves in the game.

[01:15:31] It's not as much of a quote-unquote floater as some of these other players.

[01:15:33] But, like, has not really committed herself to an alliance.

[01:15:36] I think she calls Chapel Rhone out on being too much of a domineering leader.

[01:15:40] I think that is something that obviously hits a bit close to home for Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[01:15:44] Yeah.

[01:15:45] Doesn't like domineering people.

[01:15:46] Okay.

[01:15:47] Next up.

[01:15:48] Okay.

[01:15:49] Mudang and the Rizzler.

[01:15:52] Mudang rides the Rizzler like a horse.

[01:15:56] It was going the other way.

[01:15:59] It's right there.

[01:16:00] That's the best part.

[01:16:01] Mudang is like, I came up with this on my own, Rizzler.

[01:16:04] You're my steed.

[01:16:06] Yeah.

[01:16:07] I do wish, you know, maybe for next year, if it's not too controversial, it would be great.

[01:16:14] You know, it'll probably be another big year for AI.

[01:16:16] We should be having, like, AI be generating these images.

[01:16:21] The Rizzler riding Mudang right now?

[01:16:25] Yeah.

[01:16:26] I mean, I feel like that should be, like, an image that a political party uses when it gets certain endorsements.

[01:16:32] Right?

[01:16:32] Like, look what we have on our side.

[01:16:34] These are two of the most lovable young figures that exist out there.

[01:16:39] The children are our future, and they're riding us into a new tomorrow.

[01:16:43] Okay.

[01:16:43] All right.

[01:16:45] This is just—I have to say, though, Rob, yes, of course, Mudang would make more sense as the steed,

[01:16:50] but the idea of Mudang riding the Rizzler is ten times better.

[01:16:54] What an incredible image.

[01:16:57] I will go to sleep tonight with that picture in my head, and it will bring me the happiest and weirdest of dreams.

[01:17:03] Okay.

[01:17:04] All right, Mike.

[01:17:07] Then, after that, we still have some more house events.

[01:17:11] Okay?

[01:17:11] Mm-hmm.

[01:17:13] Ray Gunn and Hak Tua bond.

[01:17:15] Over what?

[01:17:16] I mean, I think they feel like they are two of the more flash-in-the-pan people of 2024, right?

[01:17:22] They're like, remember when we were nobody?

[01:17:24] Remember, like, Ray Gunn's like, I'm an academic.

[01:17:27] I'm a professor.

[01:17:28] Mm-hmm.

[01:17:29] And now everyone is making fun of me.

[01:17:31] And so I think perhaps we start to see a little bit of a common ground between the two of them,

[01:17:36] or a common cardboard box that Ray Gunn proceeds to breakdance on.

[01:17:40] Okay.

[01:17:40] All right.

[01:17:41] Then we also have, oh!

[01:17:44] Zendaya has a sudden outburst and walks out of the game.

[01:17:46] What?

[01:17:48] Zendaya!

[01:17:49] Wow.

[01:17:52] Oh my god.

[01:17:54] Just when we thought that things were about to get spicy, the spice flowed out of the house.

[01:18:02] Chani is gone.

[01:18:03] Zendaya is done.

[01:18:05] After such a huge year that she had, she decided to walk away.

[01:18:10] Yeah.

[01:18:11] Did she hurt her knee?

[01:18:12] I mean, she may have hurt her knee.

[01:18:14] And also, it might have been almost like a B-style from Survivor Diverse Glass.

[01:18:19] She's like, listen, Euphoria is finally coming back.

[01:18:21] I can't jeopardize my career at this point, playing all these silly backyard games.

[01:18:25] I accomplished my goal.

[01:18:26] I got revenge on those damn pop stars.

[01:18:29] I'm still missing Tom Holland via Steven Neterosik.

[01:18:32] It's time for me to swing out of here.

[01:18:34] Okay.

[01:18:35] So, Mike, I feel like this is a little unprecedented in Big Brother.

[01:18:39] I feel like, I do feel like, though, that maybe this happened one time in one of our podcaster games.

[01:18:45] So, is the eviction canceled or do we continue on?

[01:18:48] I think the eviction's canceled.

[01:18:50] The TBD as to whether the house gets canceled.

[01:18:52] We'll see how the community reacts to it.

[01:18:54] But, yeah, I'm pretty sure we render everything null and void.

[01:18:58] Wow.

[01:18:58] Okay.

[01:18:59] Wow.

[01:19:00] No voting.

[01:19:00] So, maybe for Chapel Rhone, gets a call at the 11th hour.

[01:19:09] Yeah, exactly.

[01:19:10] From the governor.

[01:19:11] Exactly.

[01:19:12] She is able to get a bit of a save.

[01:19:14] Who knows?

[01:19:14] The Menendez brothers might be waiting for that call for the governor as well.

[01:19:18] And the real life is too.

[01:19:19] Okay.

[01:19:20] So, Zendaya walks out of the game.

[01:19:24] I mean, in this time, we are thinking of Zendaya.

[01:19:29] We hope that whatever mental...

[01:19:31] Godspeed, Zendaya.

[01:19:32] Anguish she's going through.

[01:19:34] We hope that she is doing well.

[01:19:36] Our thoughts are with her and her family during this time.

[01:19:40] And, wow.

[01:19:41] This is just like...

[01:19:42] I mean, the game seems trivial at this point.

[01:19:44] I mean, what this honestly was, Rob, is this lies.

[01:19:50] The well-coaffed sneakers of one Kendrick Lamar.

[01:19:54] Because this guy knows how to play mental games.

[01:19:56] He promptly squabbled up.

[01:19:59] And he looked at Chapel Rhone on that block.

[01:20:01] And he decided, I cannot lose another person in the game.

[01:20:06] And so, I think he just started going in on Zendaya.

[01:20:11] And eventually, it got to the point where she hit her limit.

[01:20:13] She hit her break.

[01:20:14] She hit a net, if you will.

[01:20:16] And decided, this isn't for me anymore.

[01:20:19] I'm not feeling the euphoria.

[01:20:21] Not feeling the euphoria.

[01:20:22] And so, Zendaya ends up leaving the game.

[01:20:25] All right.

[01:20:25] And you know what it was?

[01:20:26] Honestly, it was also the idea that Juri was coming up.

[01:20:28] And she's like...

[01:20:29] Not going to see Steven on Rassic.

[01:20:31] Yeah.

[01:20:31] And also like, I can't be trapped in there.

[01:20:33] I've got so many things that I'm doing.

[01:20:35] Mm-hmm.

[01:20:36] Okay.

[01:20:37] Let's go to our jury phase.

[01:20:40] Begins now.

[01:20:41] All right.

[01:20:42] Oh, man.

[01:20:42] So, Hawk Tua just wound up in a good heap of something.

[01:20:48] She's not going to throw her microphone into the pool or spit on the microphone like Chima.

[01:20:53] Spit on that thing in the pool.

[01:20:55] Yeah.

[01:20:55] In the hot tub.

[01:20:56] Okay.

[01:20:57] All right.

[01:20:58] So, we have Kendrick Lamar and Chapel Rhone.

[01:21:03] Still there.

[01:21:03] Okay.

[01:21:04] Chapel Rhone, the Dune Popcorn Bucket, and the Mendizler.

[01:21:07] Still there.

[01:21:08] Mm-hmm.

[01:21:09] But...

[01:21:09] However, the Rizzler has left Alliance No. 5.

[01:21:12] So, the Rizzler is no longer part of the Alliance with Chapel Rhone, the Dune Popcorn Bucket, and the Menendez brothers.

[01:21:17] You know what it is?

[01:21:18] Listen, the Rizzler is able to spread his seeds a little bit.

[01:21:23] He's able to, like, you know, really spread that...

[01:21:26] Easy.

[01:21:26] He's ready to spread that Rizz all over the house and really chum up to the other house guests.

[01:21:30] We saw that last time with him and Mudang playing together, making the Cowboy Carter album.

[01:21:36] So, yeah, he's thinking, he's stroking his chin, right?

[01:21:39] Eyebrow raised, thinking, like, do I want to stick with this group?

[01:21:43] Am I four out of four or even five out of five amongst this Alliance?

[01:21:47] And so, he decides to seek greener pastures and leaves the Alliance.

[01:21:51] It's not looking right now as accommodating or appetizing as a fresh chicken bake from Costco.

[01:21:56] Yep.

[01:21:57] Okay.

[01:21:57] And so, the Rizzler gives the Doom to the Alliance.

[01:22:03] Exactly.

[01:22:04] And so, we'll see who gets his boom.

[01:22:06] Mm-hmm.

[01:22:07] Okay.

[01:22:07] Michael Fullboom.

[01:22:08] All right.

[01:22:09] So, gives the Rizz face to the Alliance.

[01:22:13] And he's not coming back.

[01:22:15] This would be a good time for him to win HOH, though.

[01:22:17] All right.

[01:22:18] Let's go to our next HOH competition.

[01:22:20] The Rizzler will not win HOH.

[01:22:22] It comes down to the Menendez brothers Mudang and Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[01:22:25] And the winner of HOH number seven is the Menendez brothers.

[01:22:31] Finally in power for the first time this season.

[01:22:33] So, this is going to be some easy revenge.

[01:22:36] Now, listen.

[01:22:37] They are able to have a couple of enemies to take out in this instance.

[01:22:42] These guys know a thing or two about getting even.

[01:22:44] And I also imagine that this is going to be spat right back in the face of Hawk Tua.

[01:22:49] Wow.

[01:22:50] Okay.

[01:22:52] All right.

[01:22:55] So, the Menendez brothers are at the nomination ceremony.

[01:22:59] And maybe Lyle gives one nominee and Eric gives the other one.

[01:23:03] Or they alternate every other word.

[01:23:05] Yeah.

[01:23:06] And so, oh, no.

[01:23:06] It's Mudang in the popcorn bucket.

[01:23:09] I'm sorry.

[01:23:09] It's Ray Gun.

[01:23:10] Ray Gun in the popcorn bucket.

[01:23:11] They do look very similar.

[01:23:12] Yeah.

[01:23:13] So, Ray Gun and the Doom popcorn bucket.

[01:23:16] Menendez brothers.

[01:23:17] This is your alliance.

[01:23:18] What are you doing?

[01:23:19] This is one of the only allies you have left in the game and you nominate them?

[01:23:23] Could this be a backdoor?

[01:23:24] I mean, yeah.

[01:23:25] But you have so many other options in the house.

[01:23:28] There are literally two people who you are working with and you nominate 50% of them.

[01:23:34] Oh, man.

[01:23:35] Is this Chelsea convinces MJ to nominate Leah all over again?

[01:23:38] Not sure if the Menendez brothers.

[01:23:40] Could the Rizzlers Riz work here where he was able to convince the Menendez brothers to take out one of the Doom popcorn bucket?

[01:23:46] I love that.

[01:23:47] I hope that's what happened.

[01:23:48] Okay.

[01:23:48] Let's go to our Vito draw.

[01:23:51] The Menendez brothers draw Kendrick Lamar.

[01:23:54] Okay.

[01:23:55] Ray Gun has drawn Chapel Rhone.

[01:23:58] Okay.

[01:23:59] And then the Doom popcorn bucket draws Mudang.

[01:24:04] All right.

[01:24:05] Good draw for the Doom popcorn bucket, of course, in an alliance with Chapel Rhone and the Menendez brothers.

[01:24:10] So that certainly helps.

[01:24:11] So I imagine they're feeling quite acrimonious about the Menendez brothers.

[01:24:15] Okay.

[01:24:16] All right.

[01:24:17] So the winner of the Power of Vito is Ray Gun.

[01:24:22] Oh, look at this.

[01:24:24] Ray Gun is able to make her way off the block.

[01:24:27] Should I do a victory dance, Rob?

[01:24:28] Yes, please.

[01:24:29] Okay.

[01:24:30] Hold on.

[01:24:30] Please.

[01:24:31] Let me see if I can make this work.

[01:24:32] Okay.

[01:24:32] Mike is let's go full frame on Mike Bloom.

[01:24:35] Okay.

[01:24:36] Who's going to move the chair out of the way.

[01:24:40] Okay.

[01:24:40] Okay.

[01:24:41] Here is Mike.

[01:24:42] And Mike is break dancing.

[01:24:52] He's okay.

[01:24:53] He's planking.

[01:24:54] Okay.

[01:24:55] He's doing it.

[01:24:56] He's got the dinosaur.

[01:24:59] Wow.

[01:25:02] I'm incredible.

[01:25:04] I'm in considerable pain, but we suffer for our art, Rob.

[01:25:07] Thank you.

[01:25:09] Okay.

[01:25:10] Scally.

[01:25:11] You got it.

[01:25:14] Wow.

[01:25:15] Incredible, Mike.

[01:25:16] Oh my God.

[01:25:17] Well, I guess I have.

[01:25:19] I earned a spot on the Australian.

[01:25:19] Viral promotion for therealityflash.com.

[01:25:22] If you share the gif, make sure you put therealityflash.com on the bottom.

[01:25:26] Yeah.

[01:25:27] You know what to do.

[01:25:28] My personal watermark.

[01:25:29] I think I just earned a spot on the Australian breakdance team for 2028.

[01:25:32] That was my audition.

[01:25:33] That was incredible.

[01:25:34] Thank you.

[01:25:35] Okay.

[01:25:35] Thank you very much.

[01:25:36] I'd like to thank Ray Gunn as the source of inspiration.

[01:25:38] So Mike, Ray Gunn, the person of the hour.

[01:25:41] Will Ray Gunn use the power of Vito?

[01:25:43] Of course, right?

[01:25:43] Of course.

[01:25:44] I'm going to bet.

[01:25:44] She's not going to Marcellus herself.

[01:25:46] Ray Gunn will use the power of Vito.

[01:25:47] So what will the Menendez brothers do?

[01:25:48] Was this a backdoor plan all along?

[01:25:50] Or will they just be complete dinguses and nominate their other ally, Chapel Rhone?

[01:25:55] Okay.

[01:25:56] The Menendez brothers have decided to replace Ray Gunn with Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[01:26:02] Oh!

[01:26:03] Either Gypsy Rose Blanchard or the Dune Popcorn Bucket will go home on Thursday.

[01:26:11] This was a big move.

[01:26:14] Again, Gypsy Rose Blanchard hasn't really had any concrete allies, but has certainly made

[01:26:20] a name for themselves in the game.

[01:26:21] In fact, three names, if you will.

[01:26:22] And so it's a big thing to do when we have them.

[01:26:25] Gypsy Rose Blanchard has been on the block twice in the game.

[01:26:31] This is the third time now.

[01:26:33] And won the veto the two previous times.

[01:26:36] Is this a backdoor of a comp beast?

[01:26:38] I'd have to imagine so.

[01:26:40] This is an ability for the Menendez brothers.

[01:26:43] You know, I think they were really trying to curry favor of like, no one would suspect

[01:26:46] that we were working with the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:26:48] I mean, also, to be fair, that alliance broke up a long, long time ago.

[01:26:52] It was like they walked right in the house, saw each other, and it was an instant connection.

[01:26:57] So maybe they're trying to really build up on that narrative of like, we're still working

[01:27:00] together, but let's keep feeding that flame, if you will, by saying that we're feuding

[01:27:05] and I'm putting you on the block.

[01:27:06] But the only problem is the wrong pawn won the veto.

[01:27:10] And so despite the fact that Gypsy Rose Blanchard is looking like a pretty appetizing target

[01:27:15] at the moment, it is now Munch versus Munchhausen's by proxy.

[01:27:21] A banner flies over the backyard reading, Ray Gunn is not to be trusted.

[01:27:25] Oh, Ray.

[01:27:26] I mean, listen, she could only be safe for so long.

[01:27:30] And so unfortunately, she is turning on, the public is turning on her.

[01:27:34] Yeah, they did not like that she won the veto.

[01:27:36] Okay.

[01:27:37] All right.

[01:27:38] Then Dune Popcorn Bucket draws controversy when they say Luigi Mangione is just mid.

[01:27:42] Now, that was bad news for Steven Nterosik.

[01:27:44] Yeah.

[01:27:45] Did you learn from Steven Nterosik, Dune Popcorn Bucket?

[01:27:47] Hmm.

[01:27:48] Yeah.

[01:27:49] I would not want to be on Luigi Mangione's bad side.

[01:27:53] I mean, it really depends.

[01:27:54] I think that if enough people say it, he only has so many resources.

[01:27:59] Mm-hmm.

[01:28:00] Okay.

[01:28:02] Then the Menendez brothers break down and thread the quits.

[01:28:06] Please, Menendez brothers.

[01:28:07] We've had so many quits.

[01:28:09] This is not Survivor 45.

[01:28:10] You've come so far.

[01:28:12] You're almost there.

[01:28:14] Yes.

[01:28:14] Yes.

[01:28:14] Okay.

[01:28:15] All right.

[01:28:16] Then Ray Gunn just fell out of a coconut tree.

[01:28:19] Why did she keep climbing the damn tree?

[01:28:22] Why did they put this tree in the house of the first place?

[01:28:24] Can they get rid of the tree?

[01:28:27] It's like when they had the rock wall in Big Brother 20.

[01:28:30] Mm-hmm.

[01:28:30] Yeah, it was a bad idea.

[01:28:31] Okay.

[01:28:32] All right.

[01:28:34] All right.

[01:28:34] We now are down to only six votes in the house.

[01:28:40] So possibility of a tie here and not the tie hippopotamus in the form of Mudang.

[01:28:45] Yes.

[01:28:45] Menendez brothers will have to break the tie if it comes up.

[01:28:49] And what happens if each one of them votes in a different direction?

[01:28:52] Yeah.

[01:28:52] The vote to evict themselves, I think.

[01:28:54] I've seen this before.

[01:28:55] Are you sure?

[01:28:56] Yes.

[01:28:57] All right.

[01:28:59] Then Chapel Roan is going to vote to evict Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[01:29:05] Okay.

[01:29:05] Ooh, okay.

[01:29:06] Haktua votes to evict Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[01:29:10] Kendrick Lamar votes to evict the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:29:14] Mudang.

[01:29:15] Kendrick said the Dune Popcorn Bucket was too holy.

[01:29:18] Holier than thou.

[01:29:19] Oh, wow.

[01:29:20] Gypsy Rose Blanchard votes.

[01:29:21] That's three votes for Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[01:29:23] Ray Gun votes to evict the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:29:27] Here's the Rizsler again.

[01:29:28] The Rizsler has a chance to tie it up.

[01:29:31] The Rizsler votes to evict Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

[01:29:34] Oh, wow.

[01:29:35] What a way to start the jury, though.

[01:29:38] Huge player, making big moves.

[01:29:41] And unfortunately, she has to reap the consequences and face a sentence to being in the jury house for the next several weeks of the season.

[01:29:51] Gypsy Rose Blanchard becomes the mayor of the jury house.

[01:29:54] Which is fine.

[01:29:55] She can have as many Skype calls as she needs to with her boo, starts family planning with all of the...

[01:30:00] I don't think you're allowed to make Skype calls.

[01:30:03] Maybe she'd be able to at least do a lot of planning for the incoming bundle of joy that will be entering her life very soon.

[01:30:09] Okay.

[01:30:09] Now, the race to find out the coveted juror number two as seen on Netflix.

[01:30:15] Yes, exactly.

[01:30:16] It's the...

[01:30:17] Who will have the movie made about them?

[01:30:19] I mean, there are certainly some candidates.

[01:30:20] And also, some people have literally had movies made about them already.

[01:30:24] Yeah.

[01:30:24] All right.

[01:30:25] So, we are down to...

[01:30:28] What?

[01:30:28] Only now...

[01:30:31] Eight?

[01:30:32] Eight.

[01:30:32] Eight.

[01:30:33] Eight.

[01:30:33] Final eight.

[01:30:34] Our fateful eight.

[01:30:35] All right.

[01:30:36] After this, we'll have less than half of what we started with.

[01:30:38] All right.

[01:30:39] Our alliances.

[01:30:41] Chapel Rhone, Kendrick Lamar sticking together.

[01:30:44] Chapel Rhone, Menendez Brothers, Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:30:46] Do we have a name for this alliance now that it's down to?

[01:30:49] Chapel Rhone, the Dune Popcorn Bucket, and the Menendez Brothers?

[01:30:53] Oh, what's a good chapel title?

[01:30:56] We can just call them the Pink Pony Club.

[01:30:59] Okay.

[01:30:59] All right.

[01:31:00] Yeah.

[01:31:00] Lyle has a pink shirt on.

[01:31:04] The Dune Popcorn Bucket, I believe, was a pony once upon a time in one of these cowboy

[01:31:07] car robins.

[01:31:08] That is not what I thought you were going to say.

[01:31:08] Okay.

[01:31:09] All right.

[01:31:10] Let's go to our HOH competition.

[01:31:13] And our HOH competition comes down to the Rizzler, Hak Tua and Kendrick Lamar.

[01:31:18] So, this is interesting.

[01:31:19] Kendrick has not seen powers since the first HOH.

[01:31:22] Hawk Tua was able to survive by the lubricated skin of her teeth, considering that she had

[01:31:28] her HOH nullified.

[01:31:30] The Rizzler has kind of been this enigmatic force behind the scenes of the game.

[01:31:35] She has not won a competition, but also nobody's targeting him.

[01:31:39] And has been the deciding vote on a lot of these different votes.

[01:31:42] Let's see.

[01:31:42] The winner of the Week 8 HOH is the Rizzler.

[01:31:46] Oh, see, I love it, but I also hate it for the Rizzler at the same time.

[01:31:51] This is why Dr. Will threw all those competitions, Rob, so that he can make all these faulty promises

[01:31:55] and never have to cash those checks.

[01:31:58] The Rizzler may have to F around and find out here.

[01:32:01] Okay.

[01:32:01] All right.

[01:32:01] Somebody is going to be getting the doom.

[01:32:05] Okay.

[01:32:05] So here comes the Rizzler.

[01:32:07] And we don't really know who the Rizzler is aligned with.

[01:32:11] Well, yeah.

[01:32:11] He did leave the former Pink Pony Club.

[01:32:15] Yeah.

[01:32:15] So he may feel the PPC are POSs and put up some combination of Menendez and Chapel Rhone.

[01:32:23] He tends to vote with the House.

[01:32:24] So let's see what the Rizzler ends up doing.

[01:32:27] And so the Rizzler has nominated the Menendez brothers and the Doom Popcorn Bucket.

[01:32:31] Really burning that bridge, saying that he was never a part of them.

[01:32:35] Again, maybe they're a bit more stigmatized.

[01:32:38] They're a bit more separated from the rest of the House.

[01:32:40] Outsiders, as it were, despite the fact that they're one of the only alliances left in the House.

[01:32:45] And so the Rizzler has formally rubber-stamped his disassociation with this alliance.

[01:32:50] He brought the Dune.

[01:32:52] Yes, this is one trinity he is not a part of.

[01:32:54] Okay.

[01:32:55] All right.

[01:32:55] So let's go to our power veto ceremony and find out who's going to be participating.

[01:33:00] The Rizzler selects Kendrick Lamar to play.

[01:33:04] Kendrick's been relative.

[01:33:05] I mean, there was the time where he did kind of force Zendaya to quit the game.

[01:33:08] Otherwise, he's been able to lie low since being the first HOH.

[01:33:11] The Menendez brothers, they draw Chapel Rhone.

[01:33:14] Very good draw.

[01:33:15] Very good draw.

[01:33:16] Okay.

[01:33:16] And then the Dune Popcorn Bucket spits out of its own mouth.

[01:33:21] Houseguest Choice and selects Mudang.

[01:33:23] I mean, Mudang is probably the biggest wild card.

[01:33:26] Also, probably the worst at competitions as one of the only ones besides the Rizzler to have not won anything.

[01:33:32] In fairness, it is very hard for a hippo to play in a lot of these competitions.

[01:33:37] Versus a Bucket?

[01:33:40] Bucket can hold things.

[01:33:41] I suppose so.

[01:33:42] Yeah.

[01:33:43] Unfortunately, Mudang's not great at slip and slide.

[01:33:46] It's got too much of those baby leg coordinations.

[01:33:49] Okay.

[01:33:49] All right.

[01:33:49] So let's see what happens.

[01:33:52] The veto comes down to the Rizzler, the Dune Popcorn Bucket and Kendrick Lamar.

[01:33:56] And the winner of the veto is the Dune Popcorn Bucket has won the Golden Power Veto.

[01:34:01] So the question is, does the Rizzler take the full measure here and put up Chapel Rhone against the Menendez brothers,

[01:34:09] ensuring that one of his former allies goes out the door?

[01:34:11] This is the second Power Veto win for the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:34:15] Are you like an awards announcer as the Dune Popcorn Bucket rolls its way up to the stage?

[01:34:19] I'm keeping the stats for the people watching along with us.

[01:34:23] And the third competition win for the Dune Popcorn Bucket, former HOH.

[01:34:28] Veto Part 2.

[01:34:29] Okay.

[01:34:30] All right.

[01:34:30] So let's see.

[01:34:32] The Dune Popcorn Bucket, we assume, will use the power of Veto here and get itself off.

[01:34:37] All right.

[01:34:38] As one does with the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:34:40] Will it be Chapel Rhone or will the Rizzler go rogue and throw up one of these other non-affiliated players?

[01:34:46] Pick here, Mike.

[01:34:47] Who does the Rizzler put up?

[01:34:50] I think the Rizzler has to stick to his guns here.

[01:34:53] I don't think that he would try to curry favor with the alliance he left behind by saying, like, well, I'm not going to put up Chapel Rhone.

[01:35:00] Like, don't draw the line at that.

[01:35:03] I think he has to finish out the job, make sure he then assimilates himself back in with the rest of the house.

[01:35:08] Otherwise, he's going to be he's going to be branded as like if you're loyal to everyone, you're loyal to no one.

[01:35:13] All right.

[01:35:14] The Rizzler, he has decided to name Chapel Rhone.

[01:35:19] Smart decision, kid.

[01:35:20] Smart decision.

[01:35:22] OK.

[01:35:22] Chapel Rhone is back on the block for the second time.

[01:35:27] Chapel Rhone got saved during the week that Zendaya quit the game.

[01:35:32] And so let's see what happens in the house this week.

[01:35:39] All right.

[01:35:40] Hak Tua is holding space for the lyrics of Defying Gravity.

[01:35:44] I mean, good.

[01:35:45] I'm glad that somebody should, honestly, in this house.

[01:35:48] And so she has been trying to grab onto the finger a mudang, but it's like basically nothing because it's just a little maw on a hippo.

[01:35:55] But she has been trying her best a la Ariana and Cynthia.

[01:35:57] Hak Tua girl was defying gravity for a while this year.

[01:36:01] Yeah.

[01:36:02] Before gravity had a cruel comeback.

[01:36:06] You could also say that saliva itself does not defy gravity.

[01:36:09] No, no.

[01:36:10] Very much affected by the laws of gravity.

[01:36:12] OK.

[01:36:13] OK.

[01:36:13] Then Mudang builds a monument to an eliminated houseguest in the vein of the Dwayne Wade statue.

[01:36:18] It is not well received.

[01:36:19] OK.

[01:36:19] Now, who did Mudang build a statue to?

[01:36:22] Did Mudang try to pull like a Cappy's funeral and try to build something to Zendaya?

[01:36:27] And it just absolutely butchered the hell out of it?

[01:36:29] Because surprise, surprise, a hippo is not great at sculptures.

[01:36:32] That could be.

[01:36:33] I could see that.

[01:36:34] All right.

[01:36:35] Then, OK.

[01:36:35] Ray Gunn and the Menendez brothers.

[01:36:37] Ray Gunn attempts to blame and call out the Menendez brothers for certain actions in the house and how the Menendez brothers deserve to leave.

[01:36:44] So Ray Gunn openly campaigning against the Menendez brothers.

[01:36:48] Yeah.

[01:36:48] I think Ray Gunn, much like...

[01:36:50] It's a mistake, Ray Gunn.

[01:36:51] Well, I think Ray Gunn, much like her Australian equivalent in Bowie Jane, has kind of had enough, you know?

[01:36:58] She feels like she has kind of been used and abused by the Menendai throughout this season.

[01:37:04] And it's like, you know what?

[01:37:04] I'm finally taking a stand here.

[01:37:06] I'm putting myself out.

[01:37:08] Menendez brothers took the stand.

[01:37:09] Yeah, exactly.

[01:37:09] I'm going to put myself out on an island, much like the continent in which I reside.

[01:37:13] I'm putting myself in the spotlight like I am tending to do.

[01:37:18] And I am going to formally campaign to take out these two guys once and for all.

[01:37:24] Okay, let's see.

[01:37:27] The Menendez brothers in Chapel Rhone face eviction.

[01:37:30] We have five votes to evict tonight.

[01:37:32] All right, so let's start with...

[01:37:34] I think Kendrick is an easy one.

[01:37:36] Kendrick Lamar will vote to evict the Menendez brothers.

[01:37:39] Yep.

[01:37:39] I also think that Ray Gunn will vote to evict the Menendez brothers.

[01:37:43] Ray Gunn votes to evict the Menendez brothers.

[01:37:46] Okay, so for the Chapel Rhone to stay.

[01:37:54] Yes.

[01:37:55] So right now, every other vote would need to go to eliminate Chapel Rhone to get rid of her.

[01:38:00] Okay.

[01:38:01] She only needs one.

[01:38:02] Dune popcorn bucket.

[01:38:03] Vote to evict Menendez bros.

[01:38:05] And that must have been a tough decision for them.

[01:38:07] Only Mo Dang voted to evict Chapel Rhone.

[01:38:10] Yeah, he went up to the two cakes in the eviction room and promptly gnawed on the Chapel Rhone.

[01:38:16] Now, maybe it's just because it was a tastier confectionary, but unfortunately, it does end up going a bit rogue here out on its own in captivity as the Menendez brothers, by a vote of four to one.

[01:38:29] They, who once upon a time had a bad jury verdict come down to them, will be joining the jury.

[01:38:35] Juror number two.

[01:38:36] Okay.

[01:38:36] Okay.

[01:38:36] Hey now, hey now, don't dream it's over.

[01:38:39] The Menendez brothers.

[01:38:40] Is that what the Pop-Tart mascots holding up?

[01:38:43] Yes.

[01:38:43] That's the sign.

[01:38:45] That's what it says.

[01:38:46] Okay.

[01:38:46] The Menendez brothers get a different photo for their eviction.

[01:38:50] Oh, I didn't notice that.

[01:38:52] Very artistically done.

[01:38:54] Yes.

[01:38:54] That they go from there in their normal clothes in the house, but then on the jury, they're in their prison clothes.

[01:39:00] Yeah.

[01:39:00] Which, unfortunately, if Charlie XX was on there, you knew she'd be able to pull off those brat jumpsuits.

[01:39:05] Hmm.

[01:39:06] Okay.

[01:39:07] And so, Chapel Rhone will reply to the rest of the house as the Menendez brothers are walking out,

[01:39:11] my kink is karma, and we will see if that karma is coming swiftly, not swift-y, for everyone that put her on the block so far.

[01:39:20] Okay.

[01:39:21] All right.

[01:39:22] So, let's go ahead and now see where things are at as we get to our final seven in the house.

[01:39:33] Oh, my goodness.

[01:39:36] Or is it six?

[01:39:38] Is this final six?

[01:39:39] No, seven.

[01:39:39] This is seven.

[01:39:40] Seven.

[01:39:40] Okay.

[01:39:41] All right.

[01:39:42] All right.

[01:39:43] Only two alliances.

[01:39:44] Chapel Rhone is working hard right now.

[01:39:48] Yes, but the only issue is neither she nor her allies are winning anything.

[01:39:53] She keeps getting nominated because the other people are winning and throwing her up because she is one of the most powerful people in the house.

[01:40:00] So, yes, it's helping her survive,

[01:40:03] but if she actually wants to hold the key again and actually get rid of some of these SOBs.

[01:40:09] Yeah, to hold space.

[01:40:10] She has to start working here.

[01:40:12] She can't just be your favorite HOH's favorite HOH.

[01:40:14] Okay.

[01:40:15] Final seven.

[01:40:17] HOH.

[01:40:18] And so, it comes down to Kendrick Lamar, the Dune Popcorn Bucket, and Chapel Rhone.

[01:40:21] This could be huge for Kendrick Lamar or Chapel Rhone.

[01:40:26] Okay?

[01:40:26] I mean, this is great.

[01:40:27] This is Chapel Rhone and her two tightest allies.

[01:40:29] She is good either way.

[01:40:32] The winner is Kendrick Lamar.

[01:40:34] Kendrick Lamar back in power for the first time since week one.

[01:40:37] Yes!

[01:40:38] He is so excited because he finally gets all the condiments he wants in an HOH basket, including mustard!

[01:40:48] All right.

[01:40:49] Kendrick Lamar has been working hard this whole season and is ready to go with nominees.

[01:40:55] Who do you think is on Kendrick Lamar's diss track list?

[01:40:58] Well, so, is he going for the people that came for Chapel Rhone?

[01:41:03] You know, is it sort of like, if you come for her, you come for me?

[01:41:06] Because if that's the case, listen, the list is long, but I would imagine the Rizzler might

[01:41:10] be a part of that.

[01:41:12] I would imagine Hawk Tua might be a part of that.

[01:41:16] So, listen, he doesn't even need to turn that TV screen on.

[01:41:19] TV off right now.

[01:41:21] He has his nominees in mind, and he is more than happy to speak his mind about them.

[01:41:24] All right, let's see.

[01:41:25] Our nominees end up being Ray Gunn and the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:41:30] You know, this does make sense.

[01:41:32] Yes, he wanted some revenge on the Rizzler, but of course, one of his more infamous disses

[01:41:36] on Drake was about perhaps Drake's unique interests in younger women.

[01:41:41] And so he did not want to necessarily, you know, point the finger back at himself by putting

[01:41:46] a kid on the block.

[01:41:47] Okay.

[01:41:47] All right.

[01:41:48] Boy, I bet Kendrick Lamar would have a pretty good diss track about the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:41:54] Oh my God.

[01:41:55] Yes, it would be like platinum selling album.

[01:41:58] I think it would absolutely break the world.

[01:42:00] Okay.

[01:42:01] I mean, at first I would have the world incredibly confused, but then once actually people listen

[01:42:05] to the lyrics and what he could do is he could remix the in the background as sort of a beat

[01:42:10] behind it.

[01:42:12] Okay.

[01:42:13] All right, Mike, let's go to our power of veto.

[01:42:15] And so Kendrick Lamar draws Chapel Rhone, of course.

[01:42:19] Great.

[01:42:20] And that wasn't even America's choice or Houseguise's choice.

[01:42:22] Pitch perfect week for her.

[01:42:24] She has her face painted all white, but she is far from aghast at the news that's been

[01:42:29] befitting her this week.

[01:42:30] Okay.

[01:42:30] Ray Gun draws Hawk to a girl.

[01:42:34] Meme begets meme.

[01:42:35] Okay.

[01:42:36] And then Dune Popcorn Bucket has drawn, spits out.

[01:42:39] It's a chip for the Rizzler.

[01:42:41] Okay.

[01:42:42] Things aren't so great between them, but you know, any port in a storm or I suppose any

[01:42:47] oasis in a desert for the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:42:50] And so maybe it's going to try to rekindle things with the Rizzler.

[01:42:52] Okay.

[01:42:53] All right.

[01:42:54] POV, Niagara Balls.

[01:42:56] Oh, the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:42:57] You think this would be a lock for them, but unfortunately they do finish in last.

[01:43:00] Okay.

[01:43:01] So I believe this is the one where like the balls are bouncing down from the sky.

[01:43:04] So again, this would be perfectly within the skill set of the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:43:08] Mm-hmm.

[01:43:10] Okay.

[01:43:11] So the winner, the power of veto ends up being Chapel Roan.

[01:43:15] Okay.

[01:43:15] Well, this is really the week Kendrick Lamar and Chapel Roan strike back.

[01:43:20] Okay.

[01:43:20] Chapel Roan has won the power of veto.

[01:43:23] Do we think Chapel Roan uses the power of veto here?

[01:43:27] Absolutely not.

[01:43:27] I think she's going to respect Kendrick's wishes.

[01:43:30] He has been really by her side through the innumerable amount of times that she has been

[01:43:34] nominated.

[01:43:35] And so I think she's fine with either one.

[01:43:37] Oh, actually, she might use it on the Dune Popcorn Bucket, the more I'm thinking about

[01:43:43] it.

[01:43:43] Mm-hmm.

[01:43:44] Because it is interesting.

[01:43:45] I did not point this out.

[01:43:46] And the more I think about it, the kind of tougher it is for Chapel Roan, that she only

[01:43:50] has two allies in the game, Kendrick and the DPB.

[01:43:56] And one just nominated the other.

[01:43:58] Is there a chance that she decides to go a bit solo here and decides that she has to guarantee

[01:44:06] that both of her allies stay in the game this round and pulls him off the block?

[01:44:11] That would be super interesting.

[01:44:13] I don't think it happens.

[01:44:14] I think they control the votes enough to keep the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:44:19] But let's see what happens.

[01:44:21] Chapel Roan uses the power of veto on the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:44:25] Yes, I know that she infamously said, it's all in my head, but I want nonfiction.

[01:44:30] And this fan fiction turned into a reality.

[01:44:33] Big move made by Chapel Roan.

[01:44:34] She's trying to have her cake kneaded into, unlike the one that Mudang ate famously decides

[01:44:39] to, I guess, try to keep her own Challengers-esque arrangement in the house going strong.

[01:44:44] Okay.

[01:44:45] So let's see what Kendrick Lamar ends up doing.

[01:44:48] What do you think?

[01:44:48] This is Hawk Tua?

[01:44:50] So Raygun's already up.

[01:44:52] It could be like Mudang could get thrown up as someone who-

[01:44:54] The Rizzler, watch out.

[01:44:56] Yeah, Rizzler is someone who did just nominate Chapel Roan, so-

[01:44:59] Okay, let's see.

[01:45:01] Kendrick Lamar has named a replacement nominee in its.

[01:45:05] Mudang.

[01:45:06] Oh, interesting.

[01:45:07] See, I thought that Kendrick, I mean, Kendrick's probably feeling a certain way.

[01:45:10] This might be shades of when Leah used the veto on Angela against Quinn's wishes,

[01:45:15] where he is quite surprised about what happened.

[01:45:18] And so he just, his mind blank on the first thing he saw was that cute little hippo's

[01:45:22] face and decided that that hippo would be hungry, hungry no more.

[01:45:26] And that, much like the dune popcorn bucket, Rob, they're both gobbling balls.

[01:45:30] Okay.

[01:45:31] Raygun makes a plan on eviction night to shout out her dogs at the crib.

[01:45:34] I mean, that's a bit of a different take from Bowie Jane shouting out all of Australia.

[01:45:39] I suppose she took that honor away from her.

[01:45:41] Okay.

[01:45:41] Mudang in the dune popcorn bucket.

[01:45:43] Uh, Mudang rides the dune.

[01:45:47] Why is Mudang always riding other things?

[01:45:50] That's Mudang's power.

[01:45:52] Mudang is so cute.

[01:45:53] How's Mudang riding the popcorn bucket like a horse?

[01:45:55] Well, of course, the sandworm is something that gets ridden in the dune franchise.

[01:46:01] So I think that Mudang is just feeding into canon, Rob, and is able to say and use their

[01:46:07] power.

[01:46:07] That's how charismatic they are, Rob, is they are able to convince others to ride them despite

[01:46:14] the fact that Mudang is perfectly suited to be ridden.

[01:46:18] Mm-hmm.

[01:46:18] Okay.

[01:46:20] Let's go to...

[01:46:21] Also, do you think, much like when they shouted out Rihanna a couple of scenes ago, they're

[01:46:24] really trying to get Beyonce's attention by just continually recreating...

[01:46:27] Yeah, the Cowboy Carter album.

[01:46:29] All right.

[01:46:31] Mike, only four votes tonight.

[01:46:33] Kendrick Lamar will break a tie.

[01:46:34] And this is interesting because these are two people that are relatively unaffiliated

[01:46:39] with, like, anything that's going on in the game.

[01:46:41] Raygun won one clutch veto.

[01:46:43] Mudang has it won crap.

[01:46:45] Yeah.

[01:46:46] Much like the stuff that's probably festooned in their zoo holding pit at this point.

[01:46:51] So it's really gonna come down to which one they feel they don't want to continue

[01:46:55] in the game with.

[01:46:56] Like, yes, Raygun is slightly more of a competition threat.

[01:46:59] Is that something you want on your side or something that could pose to be some competition

[01:47:03] later on?

[01:47:03] Though we know how Raygun does it in competition.

[01:47:05] So Raygun has only won the one veto so far this season.

[01:47:10] So it's not like that Raygun is a huge comp threat.

[01:47:14] Raygun also keeps falling out of coconut trees.

[01:47:16] So, like, how big of a threat are they?

[01:47:18] Yeah.

[01:47:19] Raygun has been on the block a couple times.

[01:47:22] Let's see what happens.

[01:47:24] That's true.

[01:47:24] Mudang's first time being nominated here.

[01:47:26] Mm-hmm.

[01:47:27] All right.

[01:47:27] So, Chapel Rhone.

[01:47:31] We expect...

[01:47:32] It could go either way.

[01:47:35] Chapel Rhone votes to evict Raygun.

[01:47:37] Is this like the Bowen Yang solidarity that...

[01:47:39] Yes.

[01:47:39] Remember when Bowen Yang was Mudang on SNL and did, like, a Chapel Rhone send-up?

[01:47:43] They decided to, you know, easily vote together in solidarity for his betterment?

[01:47:48] Yes.

[01:47:48] Okay.

[01:47:49] So, too bad Rachel Dratch didn't have any other characters in the 2024 Brands deal.

[01:47:54] All right.

[01:47:55] Dune Popcorn Bucket votes to evict Raygun.

[01:47:58] Okay.

[01:47:58] That's two for Raygun.

[01:48:00] Hawk Tua still here.

[01:48:02] Raygun.

[01:48:03] Oh, meme on meme violence.

[01:48:04] All right.

[01:48:05] Wow.

[01:48:06] By a vote of four to zero, Raygun has been evicted from the Big Brother house.

[01:48:10] Mudang lives to see another day.

[01:48:12] I mean, you gotta keep him spinning, much like Genevieve spun people around.

[01:48:16] Maybe that's what Raygun was doing.

[01:48:17] No one could see where she stood because she kept moving around, doing all these weird, chaotic moves.

[01:48:22] And so they thought, okay, she's too much of a rogue element at this moment.

[01:48:27] Unlike the Australian Survivor contestant, also named Rogue.

[01:48:30] They decided, let's get rid of her.

[01:48:32] Don't worry.

[01:48:32] She will be on Brains vs. Brawn 2 coming this winter to Channel 10.

[01:48:37] All right.

[01:48:38] Mike, we have only six players left in the game, including Chapel Roan and Kendrick Lamar,

[01:48:46] the Dune Popcorn Bucket, Hawk Tua, Mudang, and the Rizzler.

[01:48:49] Great standouts from 2024.

[01:48:52] Great representatives of the year.

[01:48:53] Yeah, it's two pop stars kind of versus the world at this point.

[01:48:57] I know that Chapel Roan has been able to really keep her ducks in a row by keeping both of her allies in the game.

[01:49:04] But at the outset, it's two living, breathing individuals versus four memes.

[01:49:08] Not to say the Rizzler is also not a living, breathing person.

[01:49:11] Or Hawk Tua.

[01:49:12] Or Hawk Tua as well.

[01:49:13] Okay.

[01:49:14] All right.

[01:49:14] So let's see what happens.

[01:49:16] Our Week 10 HOH.

[01:49:19] After we have our alliances, basically Chapel Roan, this is like three tickets to Challengers for her.

[01:49:25] She has Kendrick Lamar.

[01:49:27] She has the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:49:28] They're both vying for her loyalty.

[01:49:33] And I would imagine Chapel Roan at this point.

[01:49:35] I don't know.

[01:49:35] It's not HOH.

[01:49:36] I mean, let's see if she wins HOH first of all.

[01:49:38] So Chapel Roan, Dune Popcorn Bucket, Hawk Tua Girl are the final three for the HOH.

[01:49:43] And Hawk Tua ends up winning her second HOH of the season.

[01:49:47] That's not looking good for Chapel Roan.

[01:49:50] And it's starting to show.

[01:49:52] She kind of starts lashing out at the cameras, being like, hey, I know you.

[01:49:57] I remember you from that DR session I did.

[01:49:59] You were too invasive.

[01:50:01] Just remember that.

[01:50:02] And she's calling people out for being a little too in her space,

[01:50:05] despite the fact that it is the Big Brother house.

[01:50:07] So Chapel Roan is starting to let the elements get to her a bit.

[01:50:10] And maybe it's because she's starting to see the writing on the wall in Hawk Tua,

[01:50:14] once again winning HOH and probably repeating what happened last time she was in that.

[01:50:18] Well, Hawk Tua probably doesn't hope that the entire week goes the way that it went.

[01:50:23] Because when Hawk Tua won HOH in week six,

[01:50:26] she nominated the Menendez brothers and Chapel Roan,

[01:50:29] then won the veto.

[01:50:30] And then that's when Zendaya had the meltdown and ended up quitting the game,

[01:50:35] ultimately wasting Hawk Tua's first HOH week.

[01:50:38] All right.

[01:50:39] So we'll see if lightning strikes twice here.

[01:50:43] Okay.

[01:50:43] The nominees from Hawk Tua.

[01:50:47] Chapel Roan and the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:50:50] I mean, this makes sense.

[01:50:51] Even if they were a pretty low key duo,

[01:50:55] the fact that she used the veto on it last week made everything fairly clear as day,

[01:51:00] not Zendaya.

[01:51:02] And so this is a very,

[01:51:04] very out in front pair to go after.

[01:51:07] Okay.

[01:51:08] The Dune Popcorn Bucket has been on the block quite a bit.

[01:51:13] I believe this is the fourth time.

[01:51:16] I'm sorry.

[01:51:16] The fifth time on the block for the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:51:19] It's got around, Rob.

[01:51:20] It certainly has been around.

[01:51:21] Yep.

[01:51:22] Yep.

[01:51:22] Okay.

[01:51:23] All right.

[01:51:24] A lot of hands on that bucket.

[01:51:25] Mm-hmm.

[01:51:26] All right.

[01:51:27] So everybody's going to play in the veto.

[01:51:31] Okay.

[01:51:32] All right.

[01:51:33] Well,

[01:51:33] Mudang win its first competition.

[01:51:35] Okay.

[01:51:37] Mudang is in the top three.

[01:51:38] And we find out that the winner of the power veto is Hawk Tua girl.

[01:51:43] Okay.

[01:51:43] Just like in HOH week number one,

[01:51:46] Hawk Tua only wins veto when she's HOH.

[01:51:50] You know,

[01:51:51] they say to not waste your 15 minutes of fame,

[01:51:53] but Hawk Tua has been able to extend it much like she did in real life.

[01:51:57] She has a second chance,

[01:51:58] which is what she's hoping for as well.

[01:51:59] I think in her real world equivalent.

[01:52:01] Yes.

[01:52:02] Okay.

[01:52:02] So don't sell that Hawk Tua stock just yet.

[01:52:05] She is alive and well.

[01:52:07] And now she will probably not use the power veto.

[01:52:11] No,

[01:52:11] I think she really wants to cement this and hope that Kendrick Lamar does not

[01:52:15] continue to go full evil dick on people and cause others to quit the game.

[01:52:19] Okay.

[01:52:19] All right.

[01:52:20] And so Chapel Rhone and doom popcorn bucket.

[01:52:23] One of them will end up going to the jury house.

[01:52:27] Meanwhile,

[01:52:28] Chapel Rhone fell out of the coconut tree.

[01:52:29] Stop blaming this thing.

[01:52:31] I know.

[01:52:32] I know that you people stare at this thing.

[01:52:34] You're like,

[01:52:35] okay,

[01:52:35] I know that four people have fallen out of it so far,

[01:52:38] but I think I can do it.

[01:52:40] And I know you all have deluded yourselves.

[01:52:43] You're delulu thinking,

[01:52:45] okay,

[01:52:45] we'll be able to do this.

[01:52:46] But much like Lulu,

[01:52:48] you don't have a Brandon Donlan to stand upon and climb this tree.

[01:52:51] And that is the problem folks.

[01:52:52] That's why you keep falling out and having medical consistently visiting you.

[01:52:55] All right.

[01:52:55] Kendrick Lamar.

[01:52:55] Kendrick Lamar.

[01:52:56] Now,

[01:52:58] he is discussing where to party up the season.

[01:53:02] Kendrick Lamar is enthusiastic.

[01:53:03] When four seasons,

[01:53:04] Orlando is mentioned.

[01:53:06] Me.

[01:53:07] Me.

[01:53:07] Okay.

[01:53:08] All right.

[01:53:10] Let's go to eviction night.

[01:53:11] Only three votes on eviction night.

[01:53:15] We know the easy one.

[01:53:16] We know what Kendrick Lamar will do.

[01:53:18] Kendrick Lamar will vote to evict the dune popcorn bucket.

[01:53:21] Oh,

[01:53:21] no.

[01:53:22] Jeff votes to evict Chapel Rhone.

[01:53:23] Kendrick Lamar,

[01:53:24] what are you doing?

[01:53:25] Kendrick Lamar.

[01:53:25] Wow.

[01:53:26] Kendrick Lamar goes into the diary room and he looks,

[01:53:29] Julie.

[01:53:30] Cold-blooded.

[01:53:31] He looks her in Julie.

[01:53:32] Chen Moonves in the eye.

[01:53:33] And he says,

[01:53:34] I hate the way that you walk,

[01:53:36] the way that you talk.

[01:53:37] I hate the way that you dress.

[01:53:38] I hate the way that you sneak.

[01:53:39] Diss it by flight.

[01:53:41] It's going to be direct.

[01:53:42] And he is sending Chapel Rhone on a direct flight out of the house right now.

[01:53:45] That was the one vote she needed to be locked in.

[01:53:48] She could have swung one more,

[01:53:49] but I think,

[01:53:50] I think that seals her fate.

[01:53:51] Rock.

[01:53:51] I think we're experiencing the fall of a princess.

[01:53:54] Boatsvich Chapel Rhone.

[01:53:56] Rizler.

[01:53:56] Now we just did it in alphabetical order.

[01:53:59] Is it possible that Mudang and the Rizler were already voting out Chapel Rhone

[01:54:03] and that Kendrick Lamar just wanted to vote with the house?

[01:54:05] I mean,

[01:54:06] that is maybe the low key cowboy Carter duo that we did not realize were a thing.

[01:54:11] You know,

[01:54:11] they are sort of running the house behind the scenes,

[01:54:14] a pair that are not formally aligned,

[01:54:16] but feel really good about each other that maybe once they locked in,

[01:54:19] yeah,

[01:54:19] Kendrick Lamar,

[01:54:21] despite the fact that he likes to stand out,

[01:54:23] he doesn't want to necessarily,

[01:54:26] be a central figure of one of these whack-ass murals that are being left out of these votes.

[01:54:31] He wants to be the painter of these blind sides and decides,

[01:54:34] not my battle today,

[01:54:35] not my battle.

[01:54:36] I'm going to stand to the side on this one.

[01:54:38] Okay.

[01:54:38] Chapel Rhone.

[01:54:39] What a run for Chapel Rhone.

[01:54:41] Oh my God.

[01:54:42] I mean,

[01:54:42] first off,

[01:54:42] we should say the winner of the pop princess three-way duel here,

[01:54:47] made it much further than her two compatriots,

[01:54:50] fought a well,

[01:54:51] well-fought battle,

[01:54:53] escaping the block time after time,

[01:54:56] winning power herself,

[01:54:57] making a lot of enemies along the way.

[01:55:01] Safe to say,

[01:55:02] Rob,

[01:55:02] for many reasons,

[01:55:03] AFP might be in the cards for her in a few weeks.

[01:55:06] Yeah,

[01:55:06] it looked bleak for a little bit.

[01:55:08] It started off really good.

[01:55:09] Then it got bleak.

[01:55:10] And then her and Kendrick made a little bit of a comeback against the house,

[01:55:13] but the powers that be ultimately got her.

[01:55:17] And so,

[01:55:17] Mike,

[01:55:17] let's just look at the lay of the land right now,

[01:55:19] because,

[01:55:20] uh,

[01:55:20] let's take a look at the alliances,

[01:55:21] because right now,

[01:55:23] uh,

[01:55:23] there had been no alliances in the house,

[01:55:25] but a new alliance forms at the final five.

[01:55:27] Hawk Tua,

[01:55:29] Kendrick Lamar,

[01:55:29] and the Rizsler.

[01:55:30] Oh my God.

[01:55:31] These are like the exterminators.

[01:55:33] They're just forming in the late game here,

[01:55:35] really had nothing in common,

[01:55:37] but it is Hawk Tua and the Rizsler and Kendrick,

[01:55:42] who is really looking for anybody at this point.

[01:55:45] You know,

[01:55:45] Chapel Roan had really left behind a game that was messy and explosive,

[01:55:50] a real red wine supernova.

[01:55:52] And so Kendrick is trying to look for somebody else to kind of fill that slot.

[01:55:55] And that is being filled by two people at this point.

[01:55:59] This is interesting because the Rizsler also might low key be working with

[01:56:02] Mudang at this point.

[01:56:03] And then if we're at the final five,

[01:56:04] this leaves the doom popcorn bucket pretty firmly on the outs of everything.

[01:56:09] Okay.

[01:56:09] And maybe speaks to why Kendrick Lamar was so willing to vote out Chapel Roan in

[01:56:14] that last round.

[01:56:14] Okay.

[01:56:15] So Hawk Tua,

[01:56:16] Kendrick Lamar and the Rizsler.

[01:56:18] Mike,

[01:56:18] do you have a name for Hawk Tua,

[01:56:23] Kendrick Lamar and the Rizsler?

[01:56:25] Oh my goodness.

[01:56:26] I mean,

[01:56:27] I'm thinking about what are some things that they all enjoy doing?

[01:56:35] Let's look.

[01:56:37] Okay.

[01:56:40] Let's come back.

[01:56:41] Okay.

[01:56:41] We'll go back to that one.

[01:56:43] So,

[01:56:44] all right.

[01:56:44] HOH competition.

[01:56:47] Mudang sucks at these challenges.

[01:56:48] Mudang is bad at the challenges.

[01:56:49] We know this.

[01:56:50] Okay.

[01:56:50] The winner of the HOH is the Rizsler has won his second HOH.

[01:56:55] All right.

[01:56:55] This is great for this newly.

[01:56:57] Uh,

[01:56:58] I don't know.

[01:56:58] Should we call them Costco?

[01:57:00] Cause they're,

[01:57:00] uh,

[01:57:00] you know,

[01:57:01] they're,

[01:57:01] they're in big business.

[01:57:03] They've got a bunch of treats that they are hoping to get themselves to the

[01:57:06] end.

[01:57:06] Of course,

[01:57:07] the Costco group is known as a trio though.

[01:57:10] That's no offense to other people in the party,

[01:57:12] such as mother of big justice.

[01:57:14] Uh,

[01:57:15] the unfortunately named people and everyone else who's a part of that group.

[01:57:18] Uh,

[01:57:18] uncle,

[01:57:19] what's his name?

[01:57:20] Oh,

[01:57:20] a cousin,

[01:57:21] the guy with the provolone.

[01:57:22] And,

[01:57:23] I didn't even know there's a cousin.

[01:57:24] Oh,

[01:57:25] there's a cousin cousin Anthony.

[01:57:26] I think his name is.

[01:57:27] Oh,

[01:57:27] wow.

[01:57:27] Okay.

[01:57:28] All right,

[01:57:28] Rob,

[01:57:29] we've talked about this before.

[01:57:30] I've done a vast deep dive into like,

[01:57:32] this is a more extensive familial history than game of Thrones.

[01:57:35] It's a,

[01:57:35] some pretty wild stuff.

[01:57:37] And the Rizzler has possibly found a new family within this group.

[01:57:41] But in Costco,

[01:57:42] also,

[01:57:42] you want to go in on a car together.

[01:57:44] I think they're all going in on cards set to the final three.

[01:57:47] Okay.

[01:57:47] All right.

[01:57:48] So Mike,

[01:57:49] there's only two people not in the Rizzlers Alliance.

[01:57:52] That's the Dune Popcorn Bucket and Mudang.

[01:57:54] You think that Rizzler might have a soft spot for Mudang though,

[01:57:57] but Mudang is not in the Alliance.

[01:57:59] I mean,

[01:57:59] this could be a Renegades Dan Memphis situation where the Rizzler is like,

[01:58:02] I've got to hide.

[01:58:03] Uh,

[01:58:04] or maybe it's the Rizzler getting revenge up.

[01:58:05] You kept trying to ride me one too many times.

[01:58:09] Stop riding my ass quite literally.

[01:58:10] All right.

[01:58:11] So let's see for the Rizzler.

[01:58:13] The Rizzler has nominated the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:58:16] We're the Rizzler.

[01:58:18] Of course,

[01:58:18] we're going to nominate the Dune Popcorn Bucket and Mudang.

[01:58:21] Exactly.

[01:58:21] Listen,

[01:58:22] we're all about imbibing in excess,

[01:58:25] but things even go a bit too far when it comes to alliances.

[01:58:28] You got to draw the line somewhere.

[01:58:29] The Rizzler has been able to show with pinpoint accuracy,

[01:58:33] the ability to choose his battles.

[01:58:36] And right now he has permanently forsworn his former ally from the first

[01:58:40] week in the game.

[01:58:41] Uh,

[01:58:42] the Dune,

[01:58:42] no,

[01:58:42] that was the through the Menendez brothers,

[01:58:44] the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:58:45] Mudang,

[01:58:46] I think he's friendly with,

[01:58:47] but this is sort of like a Tyler and big brother 20 situation where he's

[01:58:50] like,

[01:58:50] I like Sam.

[01:58:51] I don't think I could continue in the game with Sam.

[01:58:53] Yeah.

[01:58:54] Okay.

[01:58:54] And Mudang also threatened to curb stomp somebody at one point.

[01:58:56] Wow.

[01:58:57] Okay.

[01:58:57] Mike,

[01:58:58] uh,

[01:58:58] for the Dune Popcorn Bucket,

[01:58:59] this is the sixth time on the block and the fifth straight week in

[01:59:03] a row,

[01:59:03] the Dune Popcorn Bucket has touched the block.

[01:59:05] Wow.

[01:59:05] Dune Popcorn Bucket really showing signs of chemo towards the end here.

[01:59:08] It might end up with a similar finish too in fifth place.

[01:59:11] Okay.

[01:59:11] All right.

[01:59:11] Well,

[01:59:12] never finish in the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:59:14] Okay.

[01:59:15] All right.

[01:59:17] Let's go to our veto.

[01:59:21] Penultimate veto here.

[01:59:23] Okay.

[01:59:25] Then,

[01:59:27] all right.

[01:59:27] Hawk to a Dune Popcorn Bucket and Mudang.

[01:59:31] One of them will win the power of veto.

[01:59:33] It will be the Dune Popcorn Bucket will live to see another day.

[01:59:38] Oh,

[01:59:39] Mudang.

[01:59:41] Oh,

[01:59:42] such a young,

[01:59:44] cute hippopotamus.

[01:59:46] This is the third power of veto win for the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[01:59:51] Mudang is soon to be going extinct,

[01:59:53] Rob.

[01:59:54] I don't see a way out of this pending a breakdown of the Costco

[01:59:57] subscription group share program that these three allies are on.

[02:00:02] It's going to be tough to overcome that.

[02:00:04] Okay.

[02:00:05] All right.

[02:00:05] Dune Popcorn Bucket will use the power of veto and the Rizler will

[02:00:09] nominate,

[02:00:09] have to nominate either one of his allies,

[02:00:11] either.

[02:00:11] I mean,

[02:00:12] yeah,

[02:00:12] that is something that comes to Godblood.

[02:00:15] Okay.

[02:00:16] I think it's Hawk to a,

[02:00:17] let's see.

[02:00:18] No,

[02:00:19] it's Kendrick Lamar.

[02:00:20] Wow.

[02:00:20] Kendrick Lamar,

[02:00:21] uh,

[02:00:22] Kendrick Lamar,

[02:00:23] uh,

[02:00:24] amazingly,

[02:00:24] I believe this is the first time on the block for Kendrick Lamar.

[02:00:28] Yeah,

[02:00:29] because I think a lot of people feared what would happen if they

[02:00:32] incurred his wrath by putting him up there.

[02:00:34] But listen,

[02:00:35] the Rizler ain't scared.

[02:00:36] Rizler's not scared.

[02:00:37] Okay.

[02:00:38] Kendrick Lamar should have the votes to stay.

[02:00:40] I would imagine.

[02:00:42] So if the plan holds as it should,

[02:00:45] he has one vote in his pocket,

[02:00:47] at least in the form of Hawk to a worse comes to worse.

[02:00:51] If Dune Popcorn Bucket,

[02:00:53] a Rizler breaks the tie in his favor.

[02:00:55] Yeah.

[02:00:55] Okay.

[02:00:55] And now this has been such an interesting duo to follow all season.

[02:00:58] I feel like that there's probably so many like funny moments that like,

[02:01:01] this is like the comic relief of the show,

[02:01:03] the relationship between the two friends,

[02:01:05] Dune Popcorn Bucket and Mudang.

[02:01:07] After borrowing an item from the Dune Popcorn Bucket,

[02:01:10] Mudang accidentally breaks it.

[02:01:12] Look,

[02:01:12] that's going to happen.

[02:01:13] You let Mudang borrow your stuff.

[02:01:15] Mudang is going to break it.

[02:01:17] Yeah.

[02:01:17] It's not exactly a bull in a china shop,

[02:01:19] but I feel like a hippo in a big brother house is the equivalent metaphor here.

[02:01:22] All right.

[02:01:23] So let's see what happens on eviction night.

[02:01:27] Okay.

[02:01:27] Okay.

[02:01:28] It's Kendrick Lamar and Mudang.

[02:01:30] They're both going to give their speeches.

[02:01:32] I mean,

[02:01:32] listen,

[02:01:33] Dune Popcorn Bucket is all alone without an ally at this point.

[02:01:36] It's looking for any reason to get rid of somebody.

[02:01:38] I think Mudang might've just sealed her fate here.

[02:01:42] Okay.

[02:01:42] Let's see.

[02:01:42] Dune Popcorn Bucket throws a vote at Kendrick Lamar.

[02:01:46] Let's see.

[02:01:49] Votes with Mudang.

[02:01:50] Wow.

[02:01:51] Yeah.

[02:01:51] Listen,

[02:01:52] Dune Popcorn Bucket's petty AF.

[02:01:54] Does not like the fact that Mudang broke one of their little sound machines to help

[02:02:00] cut them to sleep.

[02:02:01] Okay.

[02:02:01] And Hawk Tua girl will vote to evict Mudang.

[02:02:05] No.

[02:02:05] it was Kendrick Lamar.

[02:02:06] What?

[02:02:08] What?

[02:02:09] Wow.

[02:02:10] Hawk Tua.

[02:02:11] Just like you look,

[02:02:13] everybody's like,

[02:02:14] we love Hawk Tua.

[02:02:15] We can trust her.

[02:02:16] She's not going to screw us over.

[02:02:18] That's what Kendrick Lamar thought.

[02:02:20] Here,

[02:02:20] take all my money,

[02:02:21] Hawk Tua.

[02:02:22] Oh my God.

[02:02:23] Kendra,

[02:02:24] you backed the wrong horse here.

[02:02:26] And she was one of the rare people to not.

[02:02:28] Yeah.

[02:02:28] She did the rug pull.

[02:02:30] Oh,

[02:02:30] damn it.

[02:02:31] Should have known.

[02:02:32] Fool me once.

[02:02:32] Shame on me.

[02:02:34] Fool me two a times.

[02:02:35] Shame on me.

[02:02:37] All right.

[02:02:38] So the Rizzler has to break the tie.

[02:02:44] Who's he going to pick?

[02:02:46] The Rizzler.

[02:02:47] Will Stanley vote to evict?

[02:02:50] Mudang.

[02:02:50] Okay.

[02:02:51] We thought Kendrick would be safe.

[02:02:52] Yes.

[02:02:53] Oh,

[02:02:53] and Kendrick is on cloud nine.

[02:02:56] He stands up saying,

[02:02:57] calling himself the black Noah.

[02:02:59] I just strangled me a goat.

[02:03:00] But in this case,

[02:03:01] this goat is a hippo.

[02:03:03] More exciting than I expected.

[02:03:04] Rob totally expected that vote to flip flop.

[02:03:06] If anything,

[02:03:07] I thought that Mudang might've sealed her fate when she broke a personal possession of the doom popcorn bucket,

[02:03:13] but leave it to Hawk Tua to always keep you spinning,

[02:03:19] always keep you guessing.

[02:03:20] And as a result,

[02:03:21] we led to the first tie vote this season.

[02:03:23] Okay.

[02:03:24] And appropriately,

[02:03:26] a tie vote for Mudang.

[02:03:28] Oh,

[02:03:29] unfortunately,

[02:03:30] Mudang.

[02:03:32] Interesting game.

[02:03:33] Interesting game from Mudang.

[02:03:34] I think that Mudang purposely did not want to take a side.

[02:03:38] I thought it could rest on cute.

[02:03:39] And it was,

[02:03:40] and she was able to for most of the game.

[02:03:41] But I think that towards the end,

[02:03:44] people were probably eyeing her as someone that could easily be someone occupying a space in the final two.

[02:03:49] But when that alliance of three came together,

[02:03:52] much like we saw in big brother 26,

[02:03:53] it's just pretty unstoppable at that point,

[02:03:55] especially when they're winning the competitions.

[02:03:57] The final four.

[02:03:58] What a final four.

[02:03:59] The dune popcorn bucket,

[02:04:00] Hock Tua,

[02:04:01] Kendrick Lamar,

[02:04:02] and the Rizzler.

[02:04:04] Dune popcorn bucket.

[02:04:06] It's win or go home at this point,

[02:04:08] right?

[02:04:09] You would think so.

[02:04:10] Okay.

[02:04:11] All right.

[02:04:12] So check out the alliance.

[02:04:13] Okay.

[02:04:13] Well,

[02:04:13] the alliance might be in rough shape after what just happened.

[02:04:16] I mean,

[02:04:17] Hock Tua just got called with something in her hands.

[02:04:21] Okay.

[02:04:22] The alliance has dissolved.

[02:04:24] Music to the dune popcorn bucket's ears.

[02:04:26] The music's like,

[02:04:28] okay,

[02:04:31] let's go to HOH week 12.

[02:04:34] Final HOH.

[02:04:36] Whoever,

[02:04:37] this will earn their spot in the finale.

[02:04:39] Yeah.

[02:04:39] Now the Rizzler won the final four,

[02:04:42] HOH,

[02:04:42] uh,

[02:04:43] final five,

[02:04:43] final five HOH.

[02:04:45] So,

[02:04:45] uh,

[02:04:45] is not eligible to participate here.

[02:04:47] And so,

[02:04:48] uh,

[02:04:49] the winner ends up being the dune popcorn bucket has picked a great moment to win.

[02:04:56] It's second HOH of the season.

[02:04:58] Stamp your ticket for that finale.

[02:05:01] The dune popcorn bucket's going to sit around that table saying,

[02:05:03] uh,

[02:05:04] remember where we built a statue to a pop tart?

[02:05:07] Hmm.

[02:05:07] All right.

[02:05:08] So now the dune popcorn bucket is going to have everybody scrambling.

[02:05:14] All right.

[02:05:14] So two nominees to go up on the block.

[02:05:16] Doesn't matter so much really.

[02:05:17] Who's going to be,

[02:05:18] uh,

[02:05:18] I mean,

[02:05:19] the dune popcorn bucket has plenty of people to take out their aggression on.

[02:05:24] Okay.

[02:05:24] Kendrick Lamar and the Rizzler are going to block.

[02:05:28] Uh,

[02:05:29] is this the first time on the block for the Rizzler?

[02:05:31] I believe it's so.

[02:05:33] Okay.

[02:05:34] And this is the first time in five weeks that the dune popcorn bucket is not on the block.

[02:05:38] What?

[02:05:38] First time in a month and a half.

[02:05:40] Basically the dune popcorn bucket has not been on the block.

[02:05:43] Mm hmm.

[02:05:44] Yeah.

[02:05:44] Keep that block hot like butter popcorn.

[02:05:47] Okay.

[02:05:47] So let's go to our final four veto ceremony.

[02:05:50] Of course,

[02:05:51] a crucial power of veto ceremony.

[02:05:53] I don't veto.

[02:05:54] Okay.

[02:05:54] All right.

[02:05:56] All right.

[02:05:57] Hakatua will play along with Kendrick,

[02:05:59] dune and the Rizzler.

[02:06:01] And.

[02:06:02] Okay.

[02:06:03] The winner of the power of veto is.

[02:06:06] The Rizzler has won the golden.

[02:06:08] The golden power of veto.

[02:06:10] And so now the Rizzler has to choose between his two closest allies who ends up going home here.

[02:06:17] He will save himself.

[02:06:19] Hakatua will go up by default.

[02:06:21] And once again,

[02:06:22] Rob,

[02:06:23] for the umpteenth time,

[02:06:25] it falls within the chin stroking hands of the Rizzler.

[02:06:29] Okay.

[02:06:30] The Rizzler,

[02:06:31] this was the first power of veto win for the Rizzler.

[02:06:34] The Rizzler has won HOH two times before,

[02:06:36] uh,

[02:06:37] but the Rizzler will certainly use the power of veto on himself.

[02:06:41] Uh,

[02:06:42] forcing,

[02:06:42] uh,

[02:06:43] Hawk to,

[02:06:44] uh,

[02:06:44] onto the block to,

[02:06:46] uh,

[02:06:48] okay.

[02:06:49] And for a Hawk to,

[02:06:51] uh,

[02:06:53] has,

[02:06:54] has Hawk to a seen the block?

[02:06:55] Uh,

[02:06:56] the Hawk to has also been,

[02:06:57] you know,

[02:06:58] this has been such an interesting season where so many of these players were able to largely stay under the radar.

[02:07:04] Uh,

[02:07:05] uh,

[02:07:05] while people like the dune popcorn bucket sat on the block week after week after week.

[02:07:10] Uh,

[02:07:10] and so Hawk to a for,

[02:07:13] uh,

[02:07:14] I,

[02:07:14] I'm pretty confident the first time this season,

[02:07:17] uh,

[02:07:18] or maybe it was a replacement nominee.

[02:07:20] Uh,

[02:07:20] no,

[02:07:21] I don't think so.

[02:07:22] Wow.

[02:07:22] She's,

[02:07:22] she's went the longest without being nominated.

[02:07:24] Both the Rizzler and Hawk to a had not been nominated the whole season before they both sat on the block this week.

[02:07:31] Wow.

[02:07:32] I mean,

[02:07:32] that's commendable on both their parts.

[02:07:33] I mean,

[02:07:33] it was a really interesting post jury experience as well,

[02:07:36] whereas essentially Chapel Roan and the dune popcorn bucket alternating or sometimes simultaneously occupying spots on the block.

[02:07:45] And then basically anyone who was nominated against them went home.

[02:07:48] And it's just the two of them were able to evade things for so long.

[02:07:51] It was only when essentially it was a default option that they ended up sitting on here.

[02:07:56] But for Hawk to a,

[02:07:58] it might be one and done depending on what the Rizzler thing.

[02:08:01] She did go rogue in this last vote.

[02:08:03] Does that convince the Rizzler that she is not someone to continue to go shopping with?

[02:08:08] Does he want to check out?

[02:08:09] I think this is a real wild card.

[02:08:10] We don't know what will happen.

[02:08:11] Let's check out our house events for this week.

[02:08:13] Okay.

[02:08:14] Dune popcorn bucket gets on the good side of Kendrick Lamar calling them very demure,

[02:08:18] very mindful.

[02:08:19] Uh,

[02:08:20] I mean,

[02:08:20] I don't know if Kendrick Lamar is going to take to that kindly necessarily.

[02:08:24] I mean,

[02:08:24] he is very mindful,

[02:08:25] but I don't know how he'd respond to being called demure.

[02:08:27] That's a compliment.

[02:08:28] I think coming from the dune popcorn bucket.

[02:08:30] Yeah,

[02:08:31] I suppose so.

[02:08:32] I mean,

[02:08:32] I think anything coming from the dune popcorn bucket is a little disquieting.

[02:08:35] Okay.

[02:08:35] And then from the Hawk to a girl,

[02:08:37] Hawk to a girl,

[02:08:38] she just fell out of the coconut tree.

[02:08:39] Can I chop this thing down already production?

[02:08:42] All right.

[02:08:43] And then that's it.

[02:08:44] Eviction nine.

[02:08:46] Okay.

[02:08:46] Uh,

[02:08:47] the Rizzler will cast the sole vote to evict tonight.

[02:08:50] He'll stand up in front of the house and the Rizzler stroking his chin.

[02:08:59] He's going to cut.

[02:09:00] He's actually doing this.

[02:09:02] He's cutting someone's throat in the game.

[02:09:03] Give me the Rizz face.

[02:09:05] All right.

[02:09:06] Get the chicken bakes ready to go.

[02:09:10] Get the,

[02:09:10] at the double chunk chocolate cookie.

[02:09:13] Someone's game is about to be half baked.

[02:09:15] Okay.

[02:09:16] All right.

[02:09:17] Mike,

[02:09:18] who is the Rizzler going to evict?

[02:09:21] I think he wants to help guarantee he sits in those final two chairs.

[02:09:28] I think Hawk to a kind of got egg on her face in addition to other stuff.

[02:09:34] And so I think it's too much of a rogue outcome.

[02:09:38] I think he's been very,

[02:09:40] again,

[02:09:40] very precise with the way that he has played so far.

[02:09:43] He has to get rid of one of the most unknown factors,

[02:09:46] unless he just wants to fully torch everything and rely on himself and only

[02:09:50] himself to get to those final two chairs.

[02:09:52] Okay.

[02:09:52] Okay.

[02:09:54] The Rizzler votes to evict Kendrick Lamar.

[02:09:59] Wow.

[02:09:59] Rizzler.

[02:10:02] What are you doing?

[02:10:05] This is a guy who said,

[02:10:07] bitch,

[02:10:07] I cut my granny off.

[02:10:08] If she don't see it,

[02:10:09] how I see it.

[02:10:10] Why are you sending this guy to the jury?

[02:10:12] Yeah.

[02:10:12] He's going to,

[02:10:13] you can't send this guy who's going to stump and be able to be so eloquent

[02:10:17] with his words.

[02:10:18] Yes.

[02:10:18] He could be a threat in the final two,

[02:10:19] but he could very easily get a lot of votes against you.

[02:10:23] Jury management.

[02:10:24] I think it was,

[02:10:25] this was a really bad call by the Rizzler.

[02:10:27] I think he tried to be too cute.

[02:10:29] All right.

[02:10:29] He is very cute.

[02:10:31] So Kendrick Lamar has been evicted from the big brother house and thus all

[02:10:36] of the pop stars have been evicted.

[02:10:38] Wow.

[02:10:39] Look at all this after starting off on such a hot streak,

[02:10:42] the billboard hot 100,

[02:10:43] they were moving up those charts.

[02:10:45] And then much like what happens,

[02:10:46] you know,

[02:10:46] they,

[02:10:47] they were putting out some,

[02:10:48] some scant singles out there to help keep them in the conversation,

[02:10:51] but eventually all stars fade.

[02:10:54] And that is the case with Kendrick though.

[02:10:57] He is certainly going to plan one hell of a speech.

[02:11:01] Yeah.

[02:11:02] He ends up talking with the final two in just a week.

[02:11:04] All right,

[02:11:04] Mike,

[02:11:05] it's time for our final HOH competition.

[02:11:07] Of course,

[02:11:07] there are three parts to the final HOH.

[02:11:11] Part one is going to be more of endurance.

[02:11:13] The second is going to be more of like a memory competition.

[02:11:16] And then of course we'll have our big part three HOH.

[02:11:19] So let's see what happens between our,

[02:11:21] our final three,

[02:11:23] which ends up being the dune popcorn bucket,

[02:11:27] Hawk to a girl and the Rizzler.

[02:11:28] As we all planned.

[02:11:30] Yes.

[02:11:31] There's only one way.

[02:11:32] 24 or rebels.

[02:11:35] Okay.

[02:11:36] All right.

[02:11:37] So let's see.

[02:11:39] Uh,

[02:11:40] our winner of part one of the HOH ends up being Hawk to a will be in the

[02:11:47] final part.

[02:11:49] I mean,

[02:11:49] with no offense to her two compatriots,

[02:11:51] she would probably be the most endurance based out of the final three.

[02:11:57] So listen,

[02:11:58] it's a little bit of a game of inches,

[02:11:59] a little bit of a low bar to clear,

[02:12:00] but she was able to do so handily while spinning on it at the same time.

[02:12:03] Okay.

[02:12:04] All right.

[02:12:05] Next part two of the HOH,

[02:12:07] the dune popcorn bucket and the Rizzler facing off in some sort of

[02:12:12] combination,

[02:12:14] trivia,

[02:12:15] physical.

[02:12:16] Let's see,

[02:12:17] actually.

[02:12:17] So this is a,

[02:12:18] in front of each players are five large X's and they have to answer four

[02:12:21] questions regarding different evicted house guests.

[02:12:24] Who knows their past better?

[02:12:26] I think that dune,

[02:12:27] but a popcorn bucket has had a better social game.

[02:12:30] Uh,

[02:12:30] but let's see what happens.

[02:12:32] Uh,

[02:12:33] the winner of part two of the HOH will take on Hawk to a,

[02:12:35] in part three is the Rizzler.

[02:12:39] Wow.

[02:12:39] Doom popcorn bucket.

[02:12:41] Oh,

[02:12:41] this is not looking good.

[02:12:44] I mean,

[02:12:44] the Rizzler and Hawk to a have both went rogue in their own individual ways.

[02:12:48] The last couple of rounds,

[02:12:49] but they would be likely to take each other to the final two.

[02:12:51] I mean,

[02:12:52] the Rizzler made a very big decision in that moment.

[02:12:55] Maybe he thinks that Hawk to a,

[02:12:57] it's someone that can also burn some bridges and things.

[02:13:00] Okay.

[02:13:01] If I burn fewer than she did,

[02:13:03] I could sit next to her and still reap the rewards.

[02:13:05] Whereas doom popcorn bucket has a couple of people sitting on the jury,

[02:13:09] right?

[02:13:09] Chapel Roan and crew has a bit of an underdog narrative has won a few

[02:13:14] competitions.

[02:13:15] I do think the doom popcorn bucket just got screwed.

[02:13:17] I think it let it slip out of its hands.

[02:13:20] Okay.

[02:13:20] All right.

[02:13:20] Hawk to a girl.

[02:13:21] And the Rizzler,

[02:13:22] uh,

[02:13:22] we'll compete in part three and the final HOH of the season ends up being

[02:13:28] the Rizzler.

[02:13:29] The Rizzler has won his third HOH competition here and we'll decide who

[02:13:34] sits next to him at the final two.

[02:13:38] Now the Rizzler made the big move last round,

[02:13:42] being the sole vote to evict,

[02:13:43] taking out Kendrick Lamar with the Rizzler rather sit next to Hawk to a,

[02:13:48] or the doom popcorn bucket.

[02:13:51] I mean,

[02:13:51] let's start of the season.

[02:13:53] It's always a good time sitting next to the doom popcorn bucket in general,

[02:13:56] but this time I do not think it's an appetizing choice.

[02:13:59] I talked about it before doing popcorn bucket has too much of a good

[02:14:01] narrative.

[02:14:02] Hawk to a,

[02:14:03] you could say they played a similar game as in like,

[02:14:06] we didn't really commit to alliances when I did,

[02:14:08] I left them behind in favor of a more independent game.

[02:14:11] I went solo.

[02:14:12] Hawk to a,

[02:14:14] what does she have to show for her game?

[02:14:16] She got rid of Chapel Roan.

[02:14:17] Congratulations.

[02:14:18] So did half the house wanting to do that.

[02:14:20] Yeah.

[02:14:21] And also like she voted the wrong way in the mood dang eviction.

[02:14:25] Eviction might held a lot more power.

[02:14:27] I agree with you.

[02:14:27] I think that Hawk to a,

[02:14:28] would be the choice.

[02:14:29] People make bad decisions all the time on who to take to the final two.

[02:14:32] Oh,

[02:14:33] absolutely.

[02:14:33] We could see that.

[02:14:34] Listen,

[02:14:34] the Rizzler is from New Jersey,

[02:14:36] much like one Cody Calafiore.

[02:14:38] We'll see if it's in the blood.

[02:14:40] Okay.

[02:14:40] All right.

[02:14:41] So the Rizzler has decided to vote to evict.

[02:14:47] Come on.

[02:14:49] Yeah.

[02:14:50] Popcorn bucket.

[02:14:51] What a ride.

[02:14:52] The dune popcorn bucket gave us all like a traipsing through the sand and up and down

[02:14:58] experience for the dune popcorn bucket.

[02:15:01] Sometimes it was tough to hold on,

[02:15:03] but at the end,

[02:15:05] we all leave quite satisfied by our time with the dune popcorn bucket.

[02:15:08] Wow.

[02:15:08] What a run for the dune popcorn bucket.

[02:15:10] I don't know if you officially count this in your stats.

[02:15:12] I believe this is the unofficially the seventh time on the block for the dune popcorn bucket.

[02:15:17] And this is week 13.

[02:15:19] So over half of the game,

[02:15:21] the dune popcorn bucket has been a nominee.

[02:15:23] That has to be a brand steel record.

[02:15:25] Everybody tried to get the dune popcorn bucket out of here.

[02:15:29] Ultimately,

[02:15:29] the Rizzler is the one who ends up being the person to take out the dune popcorn bucket.

[02:15:35] Yeah.

[02:15:36] As was the case of Mother Nature.

[02:15:38] All right.

[02:15:39] And now in the end,

[02:15:41] it is how Mother Nature intended in 2024.

[02:15:44] Yeah.

[02:15:45] The Rizzler finally rode the dune popcorn bucket,

[02:15:48] much like the worm itself.

[02:15:50] Yeah.

[02:15:51] It is as it was always meant to be at the end of the year.

[02:15:55] The Rizzler and Hawk Tua girl face off for the championship of 2024.

[02:16:02] I thought you were going to go with a Sue Hawk Tua quote and talk about,

[02:16:05] uh,

[02:16:05] as Mother Nature intended for the Rizzler to eat out of the dune popcorn bucket.

[02:16:09] Oh my God.

[02:16:10] Okay.

[02:16:10] Uh,

[02:16:10] please don't Rizzler.

[02:16:12] All right.

[02:16:13] There are seven members of our jury.

[02:16:15] They are Gypsy Rose Blanchard,

[02:16:16] the Menendez brothers,

[02:16:17] Ray Gunn,

[02:16:18] Chapel Rhone,

[02:16:18] Mudang,

[02:16:19] Kendrick Lamar,

[02:16:20] and the dune popcorn bucket.

[02:16:21] All right.

[02:16:21] So this is oftentimes throwing darts in the dark.

[02:16:25] Uh,

[02:16:25] but let's,

[02:16:26] let's try to think through the logic that does not exist within the simulation.

[02:16:29] Rob,

[02:16:30] cause there's only seven votes to figure out.

[02:16:31] Well,

[02:16:31] both of them played like pretty quiet games.

[02:16:34] I don't think Hawk Tua had an alliance,

[02:16:35] uh,

[02:16:36] the whole season.

[02:16:37] Did she?

[02:16:37] I don't believe so.

[02:16:39] Well,

[02:16:39] until the end with the Rizzler and Kendrick Lamar,

[02:16:41] which is,

[02:16:41] but she then probably broke by voting to evict Kendrick Lamar.

[02:16:44] Early on,

[02:16:44] she was not,

[02:16:45] uh,

[02:16:46] big in the alliances.

[02:16:46] We saw that,

[02:16:47] uh,

[02:16:48] Rizzler was a little bit more active,

[02:16:50] uh,

[02:16:51] alliances with the Menendez brothers before ultimately that went sour.

[02:16:55] I'm not sure if the Menendez brothers are holding a grudge.

[02:16:57] No,

[02:16:57] Oliver Rodrigo was not on this season.

[02:16:59] Rob sour is a different artist.

[02:17:01] Mm-hmm.

[02:17:01] So,

[02:17:02] uh,

[02:17:02] we'll have to see there.

[02:17:05] Dune popcorn bucket might understand that the Rizzler thought they were the best player.

[02:17:10] Yeah.

[02:17:11] So I'll,

[02:17:12] I'll do a little bit of jury jeopardy here,

[02:17:14] Rob.

[02:17:14] Let's do some conjecture out of my ass.

[02:17:16] So gypsy Rose Blanchard,

[02:17:19] I think gypsy Rose Blanchard would respect the game that the Rizzler played.

[02:17:23] Gypsy Rose Blanchard,

[02:17:23] but someone that was also making a lot of her own independent big moves.

[02:17:27] The Rizzler certainly did that towards the end.

[02:17:29] The Menendez brothers,

[02:17:31] I think they'll be bitter.

[02:17:32] I think they'll vote for Hawk Tua.

[02:17:34] They are not happy with the Rizzler leaving them high and dry.

[02:17:37] I think Chapel Roan would be the same way.

[02:17:41] Ray Gunn,

[02:17:42] I think Ray Gunn would vote with Hawk Tua.

[02:17:44] They did have some time together where they would bond in the house.

[02:17:47] And despite the fact that Hawk Tua voted to evict her,

[02:17:49] so did the Rizzler.

[02:17:51] Mudang would probably vote for him.

[02:17:53] For Hawk Tua.

[02:17:55] I think she is sympathetic to the fact that Hawk Tua did attempt to keep her in the game,

[02:17:58] and the Rizzler didn't.

[02:17:59] That's the interesting thing,

[02:18:01] Rob,

[02:18:01] is that the Rizzler's kind of like giving me shades of Dama Bate a bit,

[02:18:04] in that like,

[02:18:05] he made a lot of very individually based endgame moves,

[02:18:11] where he was the tie-breaking vote to evict Mudang.

[02:18:14] He was the solo vote to evict Kendrick Lamar.

[02:18:17] He was the solo vote to evict Dune Popcorn Bucket.

[02:18:20] There's a very fair chance that all three of those people can come back and say that they do not want to vote for him.

[02:18:27] And then,

[02:18:28] Hawk Tua needs just one more,

[02:18:29] and she has won this all.

[02:18:30] Okay.

[02:18:31] All right.

[02:18:32] So,

[02:18:33] let's go ahead and get to our final vote.

[02:18:37] Okay.

[02:18:38] We've got,

[02:18:40] let's see their jury votes.

[02:18:41] Okay.

[02:18:42] The Dune Popcorn Bucket,

[02:18:44] cast a vote

[02:18:45] for Hawk Tua to win.

[02:18:48] Kendrick Lamar,

[02:18:50] cast a vote for

[02:18:51] the Rizzler.

[02:18:52] Oh,

[02:18:53] okay.

[02:18:53] Game respects game.

[02:18:54] All right.

[02:18:55] 1-1.

[02:18:56] Mudang.

[02:18:57] Actually,

[02:18:57] Kendrick,

[02:18:57] when he stands up,

[02:18:58] he does say,

[02:18:59] tell me why you think you deserve the greatest of all time,

[02:19:01] mother effer.

[02:19:02] Okay.

[02:19:02] And the Rizzler was able to field that question better than Hawk Tua.

[02:19:04] Mudang,

[02:19:05] that he was willing to ride the Rizzler around the house.

[02:19:10] Let's see how he votes.

[02:19:11] Mudang votes for

[02:19:13] the Rizzler to win.

[02:19:14] Yeah,

[02:19:15] those rides meant something at the end of the day.

[02:19:16] She'll always remember those good times better than the one bad time of the Rizzler voting to evict her.

[02:19:20] Okay.

[02:19:20] Chapel Roan.

[02:19:21] Okay.

[02:19:23] Votes for

[02:19:25] Hawk Tua.

[02:19:26] Okay.

[02:19:27] She has endorsed Hawk Tua to win.

[02:19:31] Okay.

[02:19:31] So now we're at what?

[02:19:32] 2-2 with three votes left.

[02:19:34] Tua Tua.

[02:19:35] Tua Tua.

[02:19:35] Okay.

[02:19:36] All right.

[02:19:37] Mike,

[02:19:38] Ray Gunn was a wild card this season.

[02:19:40] Ray Gunn.

[02:19:42] As she dances up to the box.

[02:19:44] 3-2 Hawk Tua.

[02:19:46] Okay.

[02:19:47] One more.

[02:19:48] And this is wrapped up.

[02:19:49] All right.

[02:19:49] The Menendez brothers,

[02:19:50] they were with the Menendezler Alliance.

[02:19:54] Do they remember the good times with the Rizzler?

[02:19:57] They do not.

[02:19:57] They don't!

[02:19:58] Hawk Tua!

[02:20:19] Hawk Tua!

[02:20:20] Rising from the ashes once again.

[02:20:23] Hawk Tua,

[02:20:24] Queen of 2024.

[02:20:26] Hawk Tua went on that thing.

[02:20:29] And indeed,

[02:20:29] she did that thing being this brand steal.

[02:20:31] Wow.

[02:20:32] Congratulations to Hawk Tua.

[02:20:33] Great job by the Rizzler also.

[02:20:35] The Doom popcorn bucket.

[02:20:36] This is probably not a good idea to give Hawk Tua girl $750,000.

[02:20:41] This is probably the worst thing we could have done.

[02:20:44] Okay.

[02:20:44] Wow.

[02:20:45] She's done so well this year.

[02:20:47] Okay.

[02:20:48] All right.

[02:20:49] So,

[02:20:50] a fan favorite comes down to the Doom popcorn bucket,

[02:20:53] Kendrick Lamar and Mudang.

[02:20:55] I mean,

[02:20:56] Mudang,

[02:20:57] of course,

[02:20:57] incredibly popular regardless of how she did.

[02:21:00] Doom popcorn bucket,

[02:21:01] massive underdog.

[02:21:02] Kendrick Lamar was running a lot of stuff behind the scenes.

[02:21:05] this does make sense from my perspective.

[02:21:07] Unfortunately,

[02:21:08] for Chapel Rhone who loses out here.

[02:21:10] Doom popcorn bucket is in third.

[02:21:11] Okay.

[02:21:12] And the winner of the fan favorite is

[02:21:16] Kendrick Lamar.

[02:21:19] Incredible.

[02:21:21] Wow.

[02:21:22] What a great job.

[02:21:22] Hawk Tua ends up being the person,

[02:21:26] you know,

[02:21:26] Hawk Tua had some real adversity in this game.

[02:21:29] Hawk Tua that she won HOH back in week six,

[02:21:33] had the Menendez brothers and Chapel Rhone on the block.

[02:21:38] She won the power of veto.

[02:21:40] And that's when Zendaya had her breakdown

[02:21:43] and ends up leaving the game.

[02:21:45] Hawk Tua perseveres.

[02:21:46] She doesn't end up touching the block until week 12

[02:21:50] as a replacement nominee.

[02:21:51] Uh,

[02:21:52] at the last possible time that you could go up on the block.

[02:21:55] She ends up,

[02:21:57] uh,

[02:21:57] then,

[02:21:58] uh,

[02:22:00] what winning the power of veto.

[02:22:01] I'm sorry,

[02:22:01] winning the HOH and the power of veto again in week 10.

[02:22:05] Uh,

[02:22:06] both of her comp wins come in the same week when she's HOH

[02:22:09] and wins the veto and a very close vote four to three.

[02:22:13] Yeah,

[02:22:14] it's interesting.

[02:22:14] And look,

[02:22:15] uh,

[02:22:15] certainly does better than the last character to throw out a first pitch

[02:22:19] at a Mets game in the form of Grimace,

[02:22:20] who was a competitor last year.

[02:22:22] I believe that the Rizsler and Hawk Tua both threw out first pitches

[02:22:24] in a Met game.

[02:22:25] Do you think that's what led to their final two deal?

[02:22:27] Did they have an alliance?

[02:22:28] I'm not sure if the Rizsler was at the,

[02:22:30] the last Mets home game of the year.

[02:22:32] I'm not sure if he threw out the first pitch.

[02:22:34] I mean,

[02:22:34] if there's anything to bond over,

[02:22:35] it's Pete Alonzo.

[02:22:36] Yeah.

[02:22:37] So there you go,

[02:22:39] Mike.

[02:22:39] Wow.

[02:22:39] What a year.

[02:22:40] Anything else to see?

[02:22:42] Uh,

[02:22:42] so I can talk through some of the other events that were not put on,

[02:22:47] uh,

[02:22:47] that we put into the simulation that were not talked about over the course

[02:22:51] and not show up on the simulation.

[02:22:53] Let me get them up here.

[02:22:54] We did talk about a good amount of them.

[02:22:57] Oh,

[02:22:58] uh,

[02:22:58] one that I'm sad.

[02:22:59] Of course,

[02:22:59] it was an interesting year for movies as we talked about with wicked and

[02:23:03] with of course the proliferation of the June characters,

[02:23:05] but also,

[02:23:05] uh,

[02:23:06] X in this form of the house guests reveals that they really came onto the

[02:23:09] show to tell their own line of the substance after the season.

[02:23:13] Despite the fact that we have some youngsters on it,

[02:23:15] you can always look just a little bit younger.

[02:23:18] Uh,

[02:23:19] let's see.

[02:23:19] Oh,

[02:23:19] uh,

[02:23:20] X tries to compliment another house guests by calling them a hot rodent

[02:23:23] man.

[02:23:24] Yeah.

[02:23:25] X complains how their memory wall photo is edited.

[02:23:28] The internet dissects it like a Kate Middleton picture to determine if

[02:23:31] they're really a contestant.

[02:23:33] Uh,

[02:23:34] let's see.

[02:23:34] We've got,

[02:23:34] Oh,

[02:23:35] uh,

[02:23:35] of course,

[02:23:36] unfortunately,

[02:23:37] while this was a big brother season,

[02:23:38] there was a popularly requested big brother reference that did not make

[02:23:42] it as a character,

[02:23:43] but I did write as an event X tries to hold a seance to communicate with the

[02:23:47] ghost of janky.

[02:23:49] Uh,

[02:23:49] and at some points this did kind of feel like a janky week of a season in

[02:23:53] general.

[02:23:54] Uh,

[02:23:55] let's see X and another house guests,

[02:23:57] Kindle and in house hookup,

[02:24:00] Rob,

[02:24:00] no showmances this season,

[02:24:02] but as trust breaks down,

[02:24:04] X conducts and conducts an investigation to wonder quote,

[02:24:08] who to TF did I show man's X declares on the feeds,

[02:24:12] their desire to box Mike Tyson.

[02:24:14] Once they get out of the house.

[02:24:16] And I believe that is it.

[02:24:20] Oh,

[02:24:20] actually a couple more.

[02:24:21] Uh,

[02:24:22] one was X,

[02:24:23] a couple of naturally occurring phenomena.

[02:24:25] X looks at the eclipse and is blinded for the next competition.

[02:24:29] I forgot about the eclipse.

[02:24:30] Yeah.

[02:24:30] And the other one is,

[02:24:31] X gloats about getting to see the Northern lights and why gets incredibly

[02:24:35] jealous of them.

[02:24:37] So again,

[02:24:38] not everyone can make it into the final cast.

[02:24:40] Try to account for as many as possible.

[02:24:42] I was used as a blanket statement.

[02:24:44] Obviously some of the people we brought in this year had some,

[02:24:46] uh,

[02:24:46] some other dark circumstances around it.

[02:24:49] So,

[02:24:49] you know,

[02:24:49] apologies to those that may have taken offense by sometimes the,

[02:24:52] the light we made of certain people's tough situations.

[02:24:55] But if you're,

[02:24:56] if you made it two hours and 30 minutes into this thing,

[02:25:00] then you enjoyed this.

[02:25:02] Come on.

[02:25:03] I mean,

[02:25:03] there's a fair shot that people noped out as soon as I attempted to

[02:25:05] break dance.

[02:25:06] So fair game for those that really stuck to the end.

[02:25:09] Congratulations.

[02:25:09] What a great winner for 2024,

[02:25:11] uh,

[02:25:12] as well.

[02:25:13] Uh,

[02:25:13] and Mike,

[02:25:14] uh,

[02:25:14] of course,

[02:25:14] great job by you.

[02:25:16] Thank you very much.

[02:25:17] Yes.

[02:25:17] Tua,

[02:25:17] Tua four went out in style here.

[02:25:20] Congratulations to all of our cast members.

[02:25:23] Congratulations to you,

[02:25:25] Rob,

[02:25:25] for getting through another year of also fantastic podcasts.

[02:25:28] I really do think that it was such a banner year for reality

[02:25:31] television in general,

[02:25:32] that was lifted by the fact that you had such great coverage

[02:25:34] surrounding it.

[02:25:35] And thank you to everybody out there for the vast amount of

[02:25:39] suggestions that you gave to us to just remind us how truly wild

[02:25:44] of a year.

[02:25:45] This was.

[02:25:45] Yeah.

[02:25:45] Thanks everybody who made all of their suggestions.

[02:25:48] I know a lot of people really look forward to this and also behind the scenes,

[02:25:51] uh,

[02:25:52] that,

[02:25:52] uh,

[02:25:53] Sam and Derek and Brandon Donlan,

[02:25:55] uh,

[02:25:56] you know,

[02:25:57] all the help that we got to put this together.

[02:25:58] Uh,

[02:25:59] we really,

[02:25:59] uh,

[02:26:00] could not do it without the whole team,

[02:26:01] uh,

[02:26:02] especially you mix master,

[02:26:04] Mike.

[02:26:33] I mean,

[02:26:34] the least that you could do is subscribe to Mike Bloom's brand new podcast,

[02:26:40] the reality flash.com.

[02:26:42] Um,

[02:26:43] very easy to do free to subscribe.

[02:26:44] You'll get all of the breaking news,

[02:26:46] including Mike's list of 2025 reality news to be looking forward to.

[02:26:52] That's going to be dropping,

[02:26:53] I believe new year's day.

[02:26:54] So make sure you get that at the reality flash.com.

[02:26:58] Mike,

[02:26:59] what else is coming up for you?

[02:27:00] Oh,

[02:27:00] from a scripted perspective,

[02:27:02] uh,

[02:27:02] of course,

[02:27:03] Chappelle and I are in the thick of it.

[02:27:05] Squid game.

[02:27:06] Season two is out,

[02:27:08] came out the day after Christmas and he and I have been doing daily podcast

[02:27:12] recapping them at this point.

[02:27:13] We are,

[02:27:14] but I got to join you for the first day.

[02:27:16] Yes.

[02:27:16] Which was really great.

[02:27:17] Rob,

[02:27:17] to get your thoughts about that first episode.

[02:27:19] I will say that,

[02:27:20] uh,

[02:27:21] it gets,

[02:27:21] it gets to the,

[02:27:22] the regularities of squid game soon after you join us,

[02:27:26] Rob.

[02:27:26] And so Chappelle and I've had a really fun time on the daily talking about

[02:27:29] that.

[02:27:30] I'm talking silo with race leader.

[02:27:32] I'm talking about star Galactica with Josh Wiggler.

[02:27:34] And before we know it,

[02:27:36] Rob,

[02:27:37] January is upon us.

[02:27:38] And soon we'll close our eyes.

[02:27:40] I'll let Squidward open it up.

[02:27:41] It's February.

[02:27:42] And that is when survivor 48 is coming out.

[02:27:45] I had the great pleasure of getting to go to Fiji for the preseason and

[02:27:49] first few days of survivor 48.

[02:27:51] So I'll give you those cast interviews,

[02:27:52] everything you need to know about the newest group of cast away.

[02:27:56] So welcome in yet another season of what has been a great streak of

[02:27:59] survivor season.

[02:28:00] So far,

[02:28:01] you can check out everything I'm doing,

[02:28:03] including my cameo and I will break dance.

[02:28:07] Right now.

[02:28:08] Now I am not,

[02:28:09] you know,

[02:28:10] I,

[02:28:10] I'm perfectly shameless to do whatever you want me to do for $15 a pop

[02:28:15] over at a Mike bloom type on all forms of social media.

[02:28:18] And Rob,

[02:28:19] thank you again for being such a conduit to this malarkey.

[02:28:22] Uh,

[02:28:23] it is,

[02:28:23] it's always such a pleasure to get to do this at the end of each and every

[02:28:26] year.

[02:28:26] Who has more fun than we do,

[02:28:27] Mike?

[02:28:28] It's a very short list as small as mudang and the Rizzler combined.

[02:28:33] Okay.

[02:28:33] Well,

[02:28:33] we hope that you all will be holding space for more nonsense coming up in

[02:28:37] 2025.

[02:28:39] We love to read your comments.

[02:28:41] So let us know what you thought about the brand steel and how it all went.

[02:28:46] And until,

[02:28:46] uh,

[02:28:48] next year,

[02:28:49] we can't wait to see the stars of 2025.

[02:28:51] Take care,

[02:28:52] Good one.

[02:28:53] Bye.

[02:28:54] Bye.
