Speaker 1 Your own below deck experience without douchebags and cameras everywhere.

Speaker 2 I know. What a dream.
But today we are going to talk about a blow deck experience with douchebags and cameras. We're talking about below deck down under.

Speaker 2 Someone came up to us, I think at our Charlotte show and made a really, really strong observation.

Speaker 2 And she said, and she said it so with pure kindness, she was like, you guys have not been doing have not been highlighting the fish cameos in blowduck down under recently and we're like you know what you are absolutely right we will highlight those fish because this show gives us so many wonderful aquatic cameos and they deserve to be noted they deserve to be highlighted and i don't know about you ronnie there was one fish in particular today this week that really caught my eye i wonder if you did No, well, there was the fact.

Speaker 2 Well, there was, there was definitely like some good blowfish content, which I appreciated.

Speaker 2 By the way, there was some blowfish on the latest white lotus, too. There was a big old dead blowfish, which, but there was a living one in this one.

Speaker 1 I didn't see the blowfish. I wasn't calling him fat.
I was calling it, it was kind of like a triangular big fish. Like, we'll say maybe triangular.
Is that which one? Yeah.

Speaker 2 I don't know. There was definitely that.
I saw that. I saw the my favorite fish of the week.
Fish of the week goes to

Speaker 2 there was like a fluorescent green, long skinny fish. Did you see that one that just sort of sat there? It was like a, it looked like, is it called a pencil fish or whatever?

Speaker 2 It was just, it was like long it looked like a flute or a piccolo and it was just there fluorescent green and just hanging out by some pebbles and we just got a big long shot of it and i said you know what we didn't get the moray eel this week which by the way that's not right we should get the moray eel but if we get that pencil fish which i'm not sure it's a pencil fish but i'm calling it a pencil fish if we get that every week i will be a happy man because that was that was a star right there that was

Speaker 1 which is like just a fish that's like completely flat how did those fish live their lives i mean they're goal weight but you know what i'll bet they sit there and they talk about themselves badly they're like oh my god i'm just so huge because they are huge but they're only huge in one angle you know and the other way they're i mean they could fit through two sheets of paper these

Speaker 1 like go through

Speaker 1 i bet they're really insecure it's like your biggest flatfish places yeah those flatfish are crazy like a flounder where they my favorite of the whole year has been there was this crab

Speaker 2 it was huge and it looked like kind of a drag queen crab i mean it looked like it was wearing jangles and bangles and like a wig i mean this crab was amazing and i've been looking for another shot of that crab and i haven't seen it yeah uh there i feel like i saw a crab recently that was really a really good crab was it on last night's episode i also want to amend something i said pencil fish i meant needlefish i think what we saw was a fluorescent green needlefish and it was just

Speaker 2 It was just a real star.

Speaker 2 But yeah, that crab, I think I know which one you're talking about.

Speaker 1 Oh, God.

Speaker 1 If you saw it, you would never forget it. You would definitely never because it was, it looked like it was literally wearing tons of jewelry.

Speaker 1 And it had so much like, I guess, moss on it that it looked like it had a shawl. I mean, it was a great crab.
And it just kept coming in and out of its hole.

Speaker 2 Like it, it was like, cameras are here.

Speaker 1 And it would like come out and then it would go back in. It's like, that's all you got.

Speaker 2 You know, there was a lot of clownfish content. There was actually one shot, like a really extreme close-up of a clownfish.
And I appreciate that. We all love clownfish.

Speaker 2 They really, you know, ever since Finding Nemo, clownfishes have really, you know, they've really come up in the world, but they're so on the nose. It's like

Speaker 2 speculative.

Speaker 1 And they're also, like, I get frustrated with clownfish because of finding Nemo, because that fucking fish, it's like, I'm trying to eat my cereal, and I have to feel guilty about you going to sing.

Speaker 1 You know what I mean? And that's how I feel about Nemo.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I kind of feel like Nemo, like, stay put, like, this is kind of your fault.

Speaker 1 I don't know your fault. Why should I feel bad?

Speaker 2 They warned you. Like, the survival of the fittest, sorry.

Speaker 1 And how many people have you put in danger due to your stupid decisions?

Speaker 2 But you get a movie you know what i mean you get like a whole movie about you meanwhile the entire ocean has to be turned upside down just to find you because you were reckless nemo and so i therefore i don't find clownfishes as cute anymore because i i do get annoyed at nemo and i just feel like it's people you know what it is it's also like no one really thought about clownfishes before nemo came along And then all of a sudden Nemo came along.

Speaker 2 Everyone's like, oh, they're so cute. And everyone acts like they always thought clownfishes were the cutest.
You never thought they were cute until Nemo came along.

Speaker 2 I don't feel like, I don't feel like it's fun.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, I always thought they were pretty much sincere. Here's the thing.
Like, I think it's unfair because those fish are like just naturally well dressed. And so everybody's nicer to them.

Speaker 1 It's like people who were born like with model looks. Everybody's like, oh my God, they're, they're really an asshole, but God, they're really good looking.
Like that excuses something.

Speaker 1 You know what I mean? And clownfish, what do they have to work for? Nothing because they come out with like these perfect outfits. They're all the same size.
They all look perfect.

Speaker 1 They're all like wearing these fabulous clothes. And everybody's like, oh, wow, that fish automatically gets my respect.
And I'm like, that fish didn't have to do it.

Speaker 1 You want to talk about fucking fish privilege? The clownfish has has it.

Speaker 2 They do. But you know what's great about the clownfish is that they have staggering insecurity because they're called clownfish.
And there's no reason for them to be called a clownfish.

Speaker 2 They're an ugly person.

Speaker 2 Yeah, like they're, they're 100% not clowns. Like they should be called like the Masoni fish or something like that.
Like they've just got beautiful chevron all around them.

Speaker 2 And like the fact that someone said, oh, they're a clown, they have to live with that because no matter how beautiful, how popular they are, how well-dressed they are, at the end of the day, they're a clown.

Speaker 2 And that's kind of, that's hard to live with.

Speaker 1 Well, I think that they were born to like an ugly doctor. And the mom passed out after birth.
She was like, oh my God, it was a difficult birth. So she passed out.

Speaker 1 And then the doctor was like, I'll name it for you. Clown.
You're a clown, kid. You're never going to make it with your fabulous outfit.
And that's all you've got, you shallow clown.

Speaker 1 And then so the clown had to spend, the first clown had to spend the rest of its life proving its worth, you know, which it never really did.

Speaker 1 So the word clown fish stuck, you know, they never had to do that. I think the doctor, because they're just adorable.

Speaker 2 I think the doctor was so mean to that fish also because it's like, clearly that, like, the doctor and the mom were, they were like, it was like husband and wife right like if he delivered his own like fish child and then it was like obvious when like the fish came out and was like it was like supposed to be a goldfish because they're both goldfish and then all of a sudden wait a second what are these bands of white that are going around who have you been sleeping with and it turns out like the mom was sleeping with a halibut so he's like i'll never accept this bastard clown of a child yeah like well we can't put bastard clown of a child as its name so we'll just go with clown it's a clownfish and thus we got these stupid fish okay so we open with this episode it's It's called Rumble in the Jungle.

Speaker 1 Don, don't don't dun dun. Season three, episode eight.
Why is it called Rumble in the Jungle?

Speaker 2 Because they, um, they have like a Fear Factor jungle theme thing later on, and they start in the jungle. In this jungle, there's jungle around.
R.I.P.

Speaker 2 R.I.P. George Foreman, because wasn't the Rumble in the Jungle his big thing? Anyway,

Speaker 2 so

Speaker 2 they, this episode was

Speaker 1 his big thing.

Speaker 2 I know, but wasn't his, wasn't the Rumble in the Jungle like Rumble in the Jungle? Wasn't that George Foreman?

Speaker 1 No, he was like grilled chicken without any fat. And I was like, you're a lot.

Speaker 1 You're a liar, George.

Speaker 2 The Rumble in the Jungle was George Foreman versus Muhammad Ali, where they both presented competing patents about grills.

Speaker 1 I don't like that violent sport.

Speaker 2 Okay, well, good news, no boxing here. However, this was also the episode really that finally locked in truly that Vion is terrible.

Speaker 2 I remember at the beginning of the season, we actually thought he was okay. We're like, oh, he seems like he should be a douchebag, but he's actually all right.

Speaker 2 And then this episode, he just was inept and he whined the entire time and did no work. And he's just awful.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I think Billow Deck has just gotten us to a point where if someone doesn't commit assaults, we're like, oh my God, good for him.

Speaker 1 I know. He's doing great.

Speaker 2 Yeah, we're like, he's a great post.

Speaker 1 He may have other faults, but at least he didn't do that, you know?

Speaker 2 Yeah, he sucks, though. And um, and he really bungled up.

Speaker 2 It was a bungle in the jungle, which is a song, um, where he really messed up this uh, this picnic because he didn't even go on it, he didn't, he sort of didn't even do any scouting, he didn't get any information, he didn't get any reconnaissance, no one knew what to do, timing was wrong, no one knew about the surfaces, no one knew how far it was from to the beach thing to the I don't even have to tell you, it's just a disaster, and it's really all his fault.

Speaker 2 And he is on the boat asking uh, the new girl to make cheese plates for a dare.

Speaker 2 And he's just like resting and looking at himself in the mirror.

Speaker 1 Yeah. And he's so lazy.
He's so lazy. And they really highlighted that in this episode, which was fun.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 So we are still at the group trip that he didn't plan. So everybody's out, you know, looking at the tortoises, you know, all the.

Speaker 2 David.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Tortoise David. I feel like all the, and I'm, again, I stand by this, that like, if you have aging guests, take us to a tortoise place because our skincare regimen looks so amazing compared to theirs.

Speaker 1 We're like, wow,

Speaker 1 they're all 100, you know, that's where I want to party. Like take me to a place where there's like a good 150 year old party, you know, that's where I want to feel like young and hot.

Speaker 1 So they're doing that. Meanwhile, Serena is stuck with the food and waving flies away because she had to put up the food too early because nobody is coordinating this trip.

Speaker 1 So she's getting all mad and she's like, oh my God, I was told lunch would be at 12 instead of 12.30. I mean, what is this?

Speaker 1 And, you know, she shoos away the flies. And I felt bad for the flies because they finally got a decent meal.
It's not poop. It's not a pile of poop.
And they're already getting shooed away. Yeah.

Speaker 2 So meanwhile, Vion's just like in the, he's taking a shower. He's looking himself in the mirror.
I mean, he really is. And

Speaker 1 so he even tells himself, hey, handsome in the mirror.

Speaker 2 Yeah. It's like, do people, I didn't know people really did that.

Speaker 1 That's sad.

Speaker 2 Hey, handsome.

Speaker 1 The idea of that in the mirror. Yeah.
Actually.

Speaker 2 Well, I'll tell tell you who doesn't do that, the clownfish. Because the clownfish knows

Speaker 2 sort of his sort of past.

Speaker 1 Oh, fish are the most, oh my God, fish are the most narcissistic because they have glass homes. Like when they're domesticated, you know, they've got like glass homes.

Speaker 1 So all they do is look at themselves all day. Don't talk about a fucking narcissist.
It's a clownfish. Trust me.

Speaker 2 You know what expression fish hate? People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

Speaker 1 They're like, I can't even.

Speaker 2 Why do you keep saying that to me? I don't have hands. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Like, also, people without hands shouldn't throw stones great saying fucking asshole yeah thanks thanks for making a saying that does not apply to me

Speaker 1 now please get away from my tank so i can continue to stare at the hottest person in the world myself hello handsome

Speaker 1 hello

Speaker 2 so um

Speaker 2 so laura starts heading over to the beach picnic etc and meanwhile alicia is

Speaker 2 she's just snapped at well she didn't really snap but she was sassy she was shady um to she wasn't shady but she was was snarky to Vion, because remember he asked about the cheese plate.

Speaker 1 Are you worried about all the Alicia fans coming for you? That caused all my money.

Speaker 2 No, I just want to make sure I don't like using the wrong word if I can help it, because

Speaker 2 I like to be able to make fun of people on Bravo for using the wrong word. But so the more I use an incorrect word, the more I lose my wrong word shading capital.

Speaker 2 And so I want to build up that bank of like wrong word capital.

Speaker 2 So I'm trying to use the right word here. So anyway.

Speaker 1 Alicia felt a slight sense of perturbance at Vion.

Speaker 2 She was taken by the pulkritude of her face.

Speaker 2 So

Speaker 2 Alicia

Speaker 2 basically she sassed at Vion and she's like, she had said like, oh, like, she's going to be into you, even though you've gone through half the crew, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, which was...

Speaker 2 admittedly out of place, even for, even though we don't like Vion.

Speaker 2 And so now she's stressed about it. She's like, oh, my goal for the charter season is to basically make the best impression, but fuck me.
I've already pissed off the boatswain.

Speaker 2 And usually I've zero filters, but I'm, so I'm not surprised by this, but I should not have had, I shouldn't have had that outburst. Like, eat some humble pie and apologize.
And by the way.

Speaker 2 Something I'd like to say about Alicia is, I mean, I like her so far, but for some reason I was really turned off by, she had taken her hair and she'd like turned it into like these big spools of hair where the hair was all dangling down.

Speaker 2 And all I could imagine was just hair in all the food. I don't know why.
I don't know why.

Speaker 2 When the hair is like in a ponytail, it feels better, but like it was all up and dangling like a weeping willow.

Speaker 2 And I was like, I feel like this is not what, I feel like as a chef, you shouldn't have your hair like that. Am I incorrect in that, saying that?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Well, I don't know because I like her hair because I like that she does the two little buns on her hair like the lady in Sweeney Todd who turns people into meat.

Speaker 1 Like they're cereal killers, but they turn people into meat pies. So I like that.
That's it. Because I'm like a badass.
Here's where I kind of lost a little respect.

Speaker 1 This part where she apologizes to that douchebag.

Speaker 1 You don't know that guy anything and don't fucking apologize to him i like you right now but now you're like kind of erasing it with an apology so i don't like that so she sends him a text and meanwhile um

Speaker 1 vion and harry are serving themselves lunch and harry you know vion serves a ton and harry's like come on leave some for me and he's like oh come on it's not too much and so jason is talking about having to relocate the boat because captain sandy's nemesis is here the wind the wind the wind it's here guys yeah there's a swell there's a swell Norma must have jumped into the ocean.

Speaker 2 So

Speaker 1 Norma must have done a cannonball day. Cannonball Wednesday.

Speaker 1 Bloop. Oh, you better watch your ass or I'm going to spank you.
I mean, spanks ya. Bloop.

Speaker 1 Bloop.

Speaker 2 Well, you would like to spank me because you've got.

Speaker 2 You got nothing else to do in your life because it's sad.

Speaker 1 Okay, you already lost this text fight because all I saw were three dots pulsing for too long you lose bloop love you bitch

Speaker 2 i'm out of practice sorry i've been on vacation

Speaker 1 uh so jason is leaving the boat to go check out coma waters

Speaker 1 So then

Speaker 1 Vion's like,

Speaker 1 what does it mean? What does it mean we need Coma Waters? And then his food slides off the table onto the floor and the dish breaks because, you know

Speaker 2 he doesn't because the thing is, he sort of like sort of throws his food at the plate on there, and then you know, like I don't know, so then it just slides off, he's just so inept at everything.

Speaker 2 Um,

Speaker 2 and of course, he makes a huge mess and everything.

Speaker 2 So, Jason is saying that they're gonna be going to Ladik, you know, this is our first time in Ladik and it's paradise, but the weather we can't control, so we're gonna go because you know, we have to find a new anchorage because that's what we have to do.

Speaker 2 So, um

Speaker 2 then uh

Speaker 2 everyone is

Speaker 2 they're biking over to this beach picnic there are flies everywhere it continues to be a disaster um but they get there and by the time they get there they've made it look all nice and serena is saying you know like

Speaker 2 i wanted to bring a little bit of england to the seylls there's little finger sandwiches lobster rolls and uh tiny little cupcakes that have the gallagher brothers frosted on top of them

Speaker 1 Oh, so the ladies all love their lunch. Everything worked out great, guys.

Speaker 1 And then Serena's like, Laura, because she's done like kind of this big tomato tart and all this stuff that they're doing with their hands or cutting it and taking it with their hands.

Speaker 1 And so Laura's like, so what are we serving these people with? She goes, oh, there's no tongs or anything. You know, I just, that's just how we're doing it today.
There's nothing to serve.

Speaker 1 And Laura's like, um, not ideal. Because now this is cemented as Laura's biggest storyline of the season why won't this chef you serving things i know

Speaker 1 she's so confused about why she can't just get this woman to use a tong or a spoon she doesn't get it i don't either really

Speaker 2 it's an ongoing issue so um the picnic is there they're they're they're having fun taking photos eating food having a great time and then um

Speaker 2 Now Johnny is taking photos of them. This is like, apparently this is kind of his specialty as he takes photos of the yes.
Like, he's always like, beautiful, beautiful pose, pose by the rock.

Speaker 2 Oh, fabulous, like, beautiful piece of spanakopita.

Speaker 1 Oh, he does a very weird pose himself, though, as he's taking the pictures. I don't know if you notice, but he bends all the way over like he's touching his toes and then takes a picture that way.

Speaker 2 I did not notice that.

Speaker 1 Why are you taking such a picture like that? It's like dropping the soap. He's lucky I wasn't around.
It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Krappens commercial.

Speaker 1 You know that feeling when you come home late from work and those puppy dog eyes just pierce right through your soul? Or when you're packing for a trip and your cat refuses to leave your suitcase?

Speaker 1 Yeah, we've all been there. Pet parent guilt is real.

Speaker 2 So then Zarina and Bri are just heading back to the boat, and Zarina's like, I literally didn't realize I could sweat from some of these areas. It's behind the knees.

Speaker 2 It's like Niagara Falls coming out from behind my knees right now. Isn't that lovely?

Speaker 1 It's disgusting. I'm so glad I'm not there.
Like, it looks like paradise.

Speaker 1 I think I'm really going to be a big fan of VR once it becomes good enough that we can just sit around and be on VR all day because I can see all this beauty but not have to feel the heat of it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Have to feel the gross sweating behind my knees. Not that I've never felt sweating behind my knees before, but that's how I know it's disgusting, you know.

Speaker 2 Yeah, yeah, it's um, this is definitely one of the most humid seasons of Below Deck we've ever seen. Like, I get sticky just watching it.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so um, Johnny is doing his um direction. He's like, Don't be afraid to lean on rock.
There,

Speaker 1 there is the confidence we love.

Speaker 1 Lady leaning on the rock, photo by Johnny.

Speaker 2 Like a beautiful young art miss. In her prime.

Speaker 2 So

Speaker 2 now there's more making food and

Speaker 2 Alicia's basically, she's really stressed because she should be making food, but now she's stressed and distracted because she's thinking about how to craft an apology to Vion, which is so stupid.

Speaker 2 And like, yes, she shouldn't have to apologize in the first place, although she is like

Speaker 2 hierarchically. She like she

Speaker 2 shouldn't have said that to someone who's higher up. And she's doing the right thing.
She shouldn't have to do this. She shouldn't do it, but it's technically the right thing.

Speaker 2 But the point is that he put her in this position in the first place. And he should have never walked in there and asked for a cheese plate while she was working.
And it was on. charter.

Speaker 2 And so like that she was even put there in the first place is where the real fuckery is. And now she's sitting here in a situation where she has to focus on Vion and his emotions rather than the food.

Speaker 1 Yeah, because if we're going to talk about hierarchy, he shouldn't be trying to fuck one of his underlings either and writing her love letters and making her cheese plates because, you know, power impacts, et cetera.

Speaker 1 So I'm not going to stand up for him. Fuck her.
I don't think she should ever apologize to him. And if he can go hit on an underling, she can make fun of him for it because he's the first one.

Speaker 1 He threw the rules out. So fuck that guy.

Speaker 1 Yeah, fuck him for sure. She sends the message and he gets it and he goes, oh my God, she sent sent me a message.
Listen to this message. I feel so bad for being rude earlier.
I follow your heart.

Speaker 1 And who's me to be saying anything? Oh, well, she's just playing a game trying to make someone jealous. And Harry's like,

Speaker 1 who is she trying to make jealous? And he's like, oh, really? Me.

Speaker 2 Wait, how would Vion be jealous from this tech?

Speaker 1 Like, why are we so stupid?

Speaker 2 He is like, literally so stupid and arrogant. Harry's like, do you reckon? He's like, well, I mean, fuck it.
Look, what does it have to do with her? I mean, look, follow your heart.

Speaker 2 And who's who's me to be saying anything? Like, what does it even make sense? She just wants me to be jealous. She wants me so badly.

Speaker 1 Yeah. And Harry's like, that's her apologizing.
He goes, no, you know what I think? She's like, okay, I'm going to flirt with the one who's been taken and make all the other boys jealous.

Speaker 1 Oh my God, you are so stupid. You are literally so stupid.
And then it dawns on me. He just literally doesn't know words.
He doesn't understand. He doesn't.
Follow your heart.

Speaker 1 And he doesn't understand even what she's talking talking about. He's literally an idiot.
And I love what he just has this big blink blink in his eyes where he's like blink, blink, blink.

Speaker 1 And at this point, at least we know he's just stupid, you know?

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Yeah. I

Speaker 2 literally am, yeah, I can't even follow his logic and how he's interpreting it.

Speaker 2 I think your answer is the best one, which is that he just doesn't understand the words. So he's just,

Speaker 2 he's built this case that the case itself doesn't make sense because he doesn't make, can't make sense of this.

Speaker 2 So Harry's like, oh, I don't know how delusional delusional you have to be to think that if you get a chase from a girl she likes you i mean this isn't the bitch law it's a super yacht

Speaker 1 now i hope tonight i can give my i can give my uh

Speaker 1 tragedy story to breen and she'll fall in love with me and give me a rose

Speaker 2 exactly cut to a scene of harry asking if he can reserve a master bedroom so then uh everyone heads back and marina is um asking alicia like uh like with help or whatever or she's asking for help.

Speaker 2 And they're all getting ready, and there's going to be some drinks that are handed out. Jason's asking how everything went.
And Bion's like, oh, it was amazing.

Speaker 2 He's like, okay, so what's the plan now? It's like, well, I'm going to go pick up Johnny and Adair now, all this stuff. And like, God, Captain Jason just wants me to be jealous.

Speaker 2 Like, why is he all up? I thought he was straight, but it looks like he's coming onto me. It's like out of control.

Speaker 1 So Serena comes back complaining, of course. She's telling Alicia, like, oh my God, it was horrible.
It was the most unorganized mess. It was terrible.
Just make some crew food. All right.

Speaker 1 Let's just do a tomato mozzarella salad. Keep it simple.
So then

Speaker 1 Vion is complaining about being exhausted. Oh, no, no, sorry.
Johnny is telling him he's exhausted. And he's like, you know, it's the long distances, too much walking, too much carrying.

Speaker 1 And imparting such wisdom as...

Speaker 1 Feel free to lean against a rock.

Speaker 2 Using my art, my craft.

Speaker 1 It was not easy, but I changed a woman today.

Speaker 1 A woman became an artist today. Thank you.

Speaker 2 Her name was Nia Vardolos.

Speaker 2 So

Speaker 2 Zarina is, she's cooking, she's getting, she's prepping some food, and she announces that she's like, so I got a recipe from a local woman about this bloody bat,

Speaker 2 and it turns out she's literally cooking bat.

Speaker 2 which I was not expecting.

Speaker 2 But apparently it's a local delicacy in the Seychelles.

Speaker 1 Yeah, one of the ladies requested bats. And I think it's the Australian lady.
And so they're going to have a fear fic, a fear ficter. Fear Fichter.

Speaker 1 They're going to have a fear factor night where they have a bunch of grody things and then the ladies eat crazy things like bats. I can do that at home.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 I don't want to go put my hand in spaghetti and pretend it's something disgusting on a luxury yacht.

Speaker 2 I am open to eating local delicacy. Like if I were in the Seychelles and they said bat was a delicacy, I would eat the bat.
I would do that.

Speaker 2 But what I'm not, I don't think what, I don't think I want to have a fear factor experience, like you just said, on a super yacht.

Speaker 2 Like if I want to have a fear factor experience, I'll, I will literally go to like Sizzler or something.

Speaker 1 I don't take a shower where there's full-length mirrors. You know what I mean?

Speaker 2 But I'm not doing that on the super yacht. I want to have a luxury, luxury factor experience.

Speaker 2 It's like, all right, teams, you have five minutes to to sit on the Chez Lounge.

Speaker 1 Go. Yeah.
The real fear factor is going to like the breakfast day at the Hyatt place or whatever.

Speaker 2 Oh, God. If you want dry crumbly eggs,

Speaker 2 how much dry crumbly eggs can you eat in five minutes? It's just salty and dry.

Speaker 1 I've eaten a lot of them. I've eaten a lot of those.

Speaker 1 Okay, so now what's happening now? So Jason. So she's making the bat.
Okay, so Jason, it's time to do the anchor, right?

Speaker 1 And so Johnny's over there like, anchor, you look beautiful. I just knew more from behind your eyes.
But the anchor is kind of sticking. It's not coming up.

Speaker 1 And meanwhile, meanwhile, Vion is just going through pictures on. uh not brie is it brie's phone what's that girl's name the hick i'm sorry

Speaker 1 today's phone they're going through pictures like oh my god look at that and that's a turtle he's like wow i love turtles she's like me too you know the turtles that drive pickup trucks i love them hey you think this bird will just you you think this tortoise dips?

Speaker 1 He's like, oh my God, I'm in love with you. I love your accent.
And meanwhile, Johnny is trying to figure out the anchor. And meanwhile, meanwhile, Jason can see all this through the CCTV.

Speaker 1 So he's like, hello, are we paying attention? And Dion's like, paying attention to tortoises. Am I right? God, I've never wanted to own a family of tortoises more than with someone like you.
I dare.

Speaker 1 You're right.

Speaker 2 Yeah, it's pretty cool. And so he's like, are you kidding me? I can see everything on CC TV, which as we all know is a cable channel dedicated to CC Pennsylvania.
They're on there. It's crazy.

Speaker 2 And there's no sense of urgency. We're in a crowded anchorage.
We've got a swell coming in. I need all eyes on deck.
It's not acceptable. So I'm going to lay into him right now.

Speaker 2 Hold on, let me get on the radio.

Speaker 2 Hey, Vion. Why are you guys standing around?

Speaker 1 Wow.

Speaker 2 He really heard it from me.

Speaker 1 And another complaint with Jason this season. What the fuck, Jason? And then still Vion never gets in any trouble.
He tells him, like, don't do that, mate.

Speaker 1 But then who has to wear the disco ball from hell? Not this guy.

Speaker 1 He gets away with that every time. Last time he almost drowned somebody by putting a wave runner that was leaking into the ocean.
You gave the

Speaker 1 disco ball from hell to somebody else. And now he does this and you still never give him the disco ball.
What the fuck, bro?

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Is it, are you only allowed to have it once? Because he had it in the first, after the first charter, I think. So maybe he didn't want, he doesn't want to overdo it.

Speaker 2 But yeah, this guy needs like a disco ball he needs like a few different disco balls attached so um

Speaker 2 uh so they they go because the anchor is stuck so basically vion like he just like goes and goes into that little hole and fixes it and everything so then meanwhile um zarina and alicia are cooking and they're really happy and then alicia tells zarina that uh that vion came in and said can you make a cheese board and zarina's like really put off by it and i was really hoping that that zarina would hold him to the hold his feet to the flames about this a little bit more I feel like it didn't come up again and I was like really ready for this to become like a thing like why are you pestering my sous chef about a cheese platter for your date you know I thought this was gonna be because part of her wants a cheese plate you know what I mean

Speaker 1 Part of her is like, oh, so the cheese plate was for me. Did you make it? Was it amazing? She's like, no, it was for Adair.
She's like, fuck him and his cheese plates.

Speaker 1 So she's like, I don't understand why he's asking for a date stuff while we're on charter.

Speaker 1 So then Vion is trying to make some romance happen with Adair. They're just like staring out over the water.
And he's like, did you keep the letter I wrote you?

Speaker 1 She's like, yeah, I've never had a letter written in pictures and fingernails before. And he's like, yeah, I like writing.
I have a little book.

Speaker 1 And in it, I write things, my deepest, darkest thoughts. Here's one.
I got $5 today because I slapped someone in the face with my penis. Was it worth it? It was.
I bought cigarettes.

Speaker 1 She's like, oh my God, that's so romantic.

Speaker 2 Here's something else I wrote. I said, a little bit of Monica in my life, a little bit of Erica by my side, a little bit of Rita's what I need, a little bit of Tina's, what I see.

Speaker 1 Oh my God, what do you do?

Speaker 2 So then there's more cleaning happening. And

Speaker 2 Brie is,

Speaker 2 so Brie is like, Brie and Laura are talking about like an energy drink. They're talking about like, oh yeah, we have to do our energy thing.
We always have to do it before dinner service.

Speaker 2 It's kind of like they're expressing that they've already kind of developed a little bit of a ritual before they do dinner service.

Speaker 2 And then Marina's all sad because she witnesses it and she's like, I am, I am alone. You know, I don't get to do fun things.
She's all sad because she's in the laundry room and she feels left out.

Speaker 1 And I think this is unfair because they were told, I'm not going to have a second or third. I'm going to decide as we go and have you guys switching it up so it doesn't get too old.

Speaker 1 And then she keeps one person down at the laundry the whole time. I don't think that's nice.

Speaker 2 But that being said, it's only been, yes, I agree. She said she'd switch it up.
But this is Marina's only, so she's done two laundry charters in a row.

Speaker 2 She's acting like she's been down there for like seven charters. It's only been like, you're on one bonus one right now.

Speaker 1 But I think it's like when you're in solitary confinement, you know, it makes it worse. It makes it seem longer.
It's torture.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I guess it is. I don't know.
I kind of feel like everyone likes to deal with the guests, but I feel like I would, I think I might want to do the laundry more, to be honest.

Speaker 1 Oh, they all say,

Speaker 1 don't they? They all say. They have to deal with the people.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I guess they do all say.

Speaker 1 I like dealing with the people. So Bree is like, oh, you know, I know we have to do it.

Speaker 1 Wait, what are they talking about? Our daily. Oh, the energy drinks.
And

Speaker 1 okay, so then Jason is talking to Serena

Speaker 1 and he's asking how the picnic went. She's like, well, you know, the organization wasn't great.
You know, we were just told so many different things.

Speaker 1 And if I'd been told those things by a boyfriend instead of an idiot bosun,

Speaker 1 they might have landed differently. But where we're at now is Vion kind of sucks.
And he's like, uh-oh.

Speaker 1 Let me tell him off. Let me find the best way to tell him off.
Hold on.

Speaker 1 Vion, Vion, Jason. Vion, Vion, Jason, you're doing great, mate.
You're doing great. Everything's going great.
All right. Bye.

Speaker 2 Love you. He should be trembling in his beats now.
Love you.

Speaker 2 You'd be terrible. I just don't know how we could not follow the simple plan.
Organise, lead this excursion and be there.

Speaker 2 There's no bringing it up now, but we'll go to bed and I'll bring it up after the charter.

Speaker 2 And when I bring it up to the charter, I'm going to say, now listen here, Vian, I heard about what you did, and what I've got to say to you is, your hair looks great.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 2 Better work next time.

Speaker 1 And he's like, so when the guests came together, everything was there, everything was working.

Speaker 1 Oh my God, the charter guests didn't even notice. They felt so young after hanging out with tortoises.
They were literally just taking off their tops, hitting on teenagers on the bar.

Speaker 1 That's really all they cared about.

Speaker 2 So now

Speaker 2 we're approaching dinner, and Lara is designing this Fear Factor game. And Harry comes up with this idea of like, hey, why don't we

Speaker 2 take some pails, put some garbage bags over the top, cut out a little hole. They're going to have to reach in and feel things.
It'll be fun. And it's like, great.

Speaker 2 And Lara basically says to Vion, could you get me some pails for this? So

Speaker 2 now then

Speaker 2 she talks about tonight's dinner, which is going to be jungle-themed and yada-yada, Fear Factor curry.

Speaker 1 Finally, I'm the artist my mother never knew I could be.

Speaker 1 putting hot dogs into jugs that people will reach into and be disgusted by. God damn it, I've made it.

Speaker 1 I know, right?

Speaker 2 So, um, uh, so Vion comes, now we're getting even closer to dinner, and so they're up on deck, and Lara's, you know, Vion's there and and Lara has him blowing up some inflatable crocodiles.

Speaker 2 And she's like, by the way, do you have any of those buckets? Uh, and he's like, Sure, how many do you need? She's like, well i need four of them he's like all right

Speaker 1 and then he kind of is like he just sits there oh yeah okay he's sitting down to blow down his alligators or whatever and she's like could you get me four pails and he goes sure and then he blows very slowly into an alligator and then he's like i'm gonna go take a shower and then he gets up and leaves he just leaves just leaves

Speaker 2 And so then he's like, oh, Harry will take over for a second. So then he just pounds it off onto Harry, you know?

Speaker 1 And Harry's like, well, what like i don't know what am i supposed to even be doing she's like well i've told him a million times and every time i tell him he's just like uh i mean he said how many buckets how many times have to tell him how many buckets four buckets four simple buckets yeah and harry's like all agree i agree i'll get it all under control you can count on me so harry goes and is now in charge of buckets so um marina is trying to get some goss from brie she's like so how are you guys together and brie's like well you know Harry's like, you know, I think about you as I lay in bed, you know, nice stuff, but I just want to know where his head's at.

Speaker 1 I mean,

Speaker 1 I think about you as I lay in bed could mean a lot of things, you know? I think about lots of stuff when I lie in bed. The answers to crossword puzzles I'm never going to finish.

Speaker 1 You know, what are taxes? How do I pay those? Do horses ever talk to people?

Speaker 2 So Harry asks Alicia to cook some spaghetti for the Fear Factor buckets, and she says yes. So, for everyone who's worried that there'd be no spaghetti, it's happening.

Speaker 2 And then, um, Vion is like, I lost my belt, and Adele's like, Well, maybe it's in the laundry, I'll find in five seconds.

Speaker 1 Like, oh, please do.

Speaker 2 Um, and um, Harry is like, he's saying, Harry's talking to them, and he's like, Look, I feel like I'm a one-man team at the moment.

Speaker 2 Can you, he's basically like, Can you help me out? I'm getting, I'm courting spaghetti, I'm finding buckets, all the really hard stuff. Can you help me?

Speaker 1 What are you organizing?

Speaker 1 And so he tells her, and Lara's like, we need to cover the pails with black bin liners with a hole in the top. They put the hands through.
They're disgusting.

Speaker 1 It's like, we should match up some bananas.

Speaker 1 So they're getting a bunch of nuts and stuff in there.

Speaker 2 Cut to Lara in like five years, just in the corner of a room on a rocking chair being like, full buckets, trash can over the top, full buckets, trash cans over the top. She's like, how many times?

Speaker 2 She's had to tell people this so many times that she's just going to to have, she's just going to crack.

Speaker 1 So

Speaker 1 Serena is cooking with Elisa, you know, as it goes. And then Johnny comes in and they're, you know, she's kind of flirting with him.
And he's like, how was your day? You seem happy.

Speaker 1 She goes, I am happy. He's like, you're so cute.

Speaker 1 Let me kiss your hand. I'm going to take care of you one day.
If there is ever a rock to lean on and you are not leaning on it, I will remind you, lean on rock.

Speaker 2 And it would be very creepy, except for the fact that she seems to enjoy it. I mean, I think I do find that Johnny is very attractive.
This is too much.

Speaker 2 I think it's really, it's too much, especially in the galley when she's working. But

Speaker 2 you can see she's excited. She literally tells us, she goes, the energy that Johnny is giving me is intense.
I mean, it just gives you fanny flutters. You know, just like little purse, like,

Speaker 1 like,

Speaker 1 like,

Speaker 2 and I just like, oh, it's just like a sexy greek man i mean i love it

Speaker 1 fanny flutters it's a british thing

Speaker 2 fanny flutters

Speaker 1 isn't your fanny your butt your butt starts fluttering not in britain

Speaker 1 it's different

Speaker 1 it's a different location in the same area if you're a lady but it's not your butt and it flutters they why would they rename a butt a vagina in america I mean, why would they rename a vagina a butt?

Speaker 1 Is that what I said? I don't know. I'm lost today, but

Speaker 1 you're that. It's very confusing.

Speaker 2 You know what? It's just one of those weird things that happens across the pond. You know, like when you go across the Atlantic Ocean, the vagina becomes the butt.
The butt becomes the vagina.

Speaker 2 It's just a weird thing.

Speaker 1 It is. It's like kilometers to miles I get or centimeters to inches, whatever.
You know, that stuff I kind of get. But vagina to butt?

Speaker 1 I mean, good Lord, you're going to, you're going to make a lot of English people very uncomfortable when they travel here. And they're like, yeah, I do me and my fanny.

Speaker 1 And they're like, ow, what the hell, bro?

Speaker 2 I don't, yeah, I learned this because Maura, do you remember Maura from on Love Island USA? Maura would do like the after show. She's like, Hi, I'm Maura.

Speaker 1 Hello, I'm gonna learn.

Speaker 2 We're gonna meet all the people got kicked off. So when she was on Love Island, she kept on always saying, like, oh, Curtis gives me fanny flutters.

Speaker 2 So it's kind of a thing. It's kind of thing that

Speaker 2 I like to say because of Maura.

Speaker 2 But anyway,

Speaker 1 fanny flutters in America are not good. That means you probably had some bad food and you're about to go poop for a few days.
I know.

Speaker 2 She's like, oh, wow. What a handsome Greek man.
He doesn't be a diarrhea.

Speaker 1 That's really hot in Britain. They're like, that's a compliment.

Speaker 1 So Elisa is like, yeah, you know, Fanny Flutters. And if that comes in the form of a sexy Greek man, go on then, go on.

Speaker 1 Commercials.

Speaker 1 So Laura's like, my vision for this evening is to gross these guests out as much as possible, just like Pollock did. Just like

Speaker 1 I'm too stupid to think of other artists today, but there you get it. Lichies, blueberries, red food coloring, cockroaches.
I don't know. Maybe I'll put V on in a thong again, just for the

Speaker 1 fun.

Speaker 2 You know, I just want I want these guests to cringe. So I'm setting up a camera.
I'm going to watch them. I'm going to have them all watch Harry flirt with with brie

Speaker 2 so um then uh lara radios and uh says everyone is seated for dinner and everything and so there she asks um adair and marina to go clean cabins but because

Speaker 2 vion wants to flirt with adair he goes down to the cabins and then johnny goes down the cabins too and they're all just like in the cabins cleaning and being silly And Vion, of course, immediately starts fucking around with Adair and not really working.

Speaker 1 So

Speaker 1 Marina's getting super pissed. It's like, hee, hee, hee hee.
He's like, oh, this is called a turned down, huh? She's like, yeah, it's a turn down. Tugger right, okay.

Speaker 1 And they're like, hee, hee, hee, hee.

Speaker 1 And then, so, Johnny starts helping. And he's like, oh, my God, do you guys, have we heard what sound turtle makes when it is getting flittered in its fanny? And they're like, no.

Speaker 1 And he's like, it sounds like this.

Speaker 1 Let me watch. I've looked up tortoise porn on iPhone.
Let us all gather round. So they start listening to the sounds that turtles make and cracking up.

Speaker 2 Yeah, this happened to me once. I definitely once had an afternoon where I did look up a lot of like tortoises having sex, and it is actually very funny.

Speaker 2 And they play the sound over and over and over again. Like the post-production just adds in the sound.

Speaker 2 For the rest of the scene, they even go to commercial with the tortoise going.

Speaker 1 So we cut back to the guests having dinner, and this lady's like, So, my friend's from college, and someone goes to nursing school. She goes, No, no, no, college.

Speaker 1 Well, look, it took me 11 years to get my bachelor's degree, so yeah, that was still college. She goes, Okay, so you were partying in college.

Speaker 1 He goes, Well, I mean, I went to four different colleges, yeah, it took a while, but guess what? I have my doctorate now, so got it yesterday, 72.

Speaker 1 I'm proud of myself.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I'm wondering what the doctorate is in

Speaker 2 Doctorate's in partying, not going to lie.

Speaker 2 So, so every, everyone is downstairs, and they're goofing off. They're laughing to the tortoise sounds.
They're just, it's like a bunch of like teenagers, right? And

Speaker 2 they need to be doing service.

Speaker 1 And Harry, Harry is kind of a brown-noser.

Speaker 2 I mean, justifiably so. He's dealing with an inept boss, and, you know, they're all just slacking off, and everything's on his shoulders, so he's fed up.

Speaker 2 But he's like, every single decade is in the interior. And Lara's like, are they actually cleaning?

Speaker 2 Or are they just pissing around because I need help bringing these hot dogs in the shape of seven fingers up to the guests and she's like yeah well I think there's a lot of pissing around so Marina's losing her mind because she's trying to clean but they're all like being silly and she's kind of like I don't want to be I don't want to be in housekeeping on this trip and this is even worse so yeah if I hear one more turtle sex noise I promise to God I'll whoop your ass down to the clue mess I mean poor Marina she's like oh my god I'm the only one on this boat not getting laid even the turtles are getting laid What the hell?

Speaker 1 So then Laura presents the main meal, which is roast chicken, garlic prawns, carrot and butternut puree, and tender stem broccoli with a Parmesan crisp. Shockingly, not a soup served with the fork.

Speaker 1 I don't get it either. Let's just roll with it.
Let's roll with it.

Speaker 2 Just enjoy the proper utensils while you have them. So then Harry and Brie are flirting, and Harry is like, you look nice and pretty.
She's like, thanks. I missed you.
I missed you too.

Speaker 1 What does it mean? What does it mean?

Speaker 2 You know, it's to think, you know, what Brie and I have is something special. And like, we have chemistry and we have sparks.
And I to think that I'm dating a mortal.

Speaker 2 I mean, I almost messed it up to think that this fizzled out, almost fizzled out before it even got started. And not even with a regular person, but a model.

Speaker 1 Yeah, he's like, I would feel so shit if our relationship fizzled before it even started. I've got to come up with something extremely sexy to do.
Extremely sexy. So let's see what he comes up with.

Speaker 1 So then a guest is asking Jason about the Bahamas. And she's like, well, there have been a lot of sharks, shark attacks in the Bahamas.

Speaker 1 And he's like, there's a chance of getting killed by a coconut about 50, 150 times more than getting killed by a shark, ladies.

Speaker 2 Turns out that around these parts, coconuts have a right to carry a concealed weapon. So it's very dangerous.

Speaker 1 Do you think it's because more more people have a chance of standing under a coconut tree than they do of being around a shark?

Speaker 1 Probably.

Speaker 2 I don't know. Maybe that's going to be what happens

Speaker 2 on the White Lotus.

Speaker 2 Violent coconuts.

Speaker 1 Well, I just wonder who comes up with these things. Like the shark commission, like there's a commission of sharks.
Like, oh, really? They're saying we're dangerous.

Speaker 1 Well, it's more dangerous to get killed by a coconut. Tell them that.
Tell them to put that in their pipe and smoke it with their opposable thumbs.

Speaker 2 Yeah, this is definitely a piece. This is definitely

Speaker 2 a study that was put out by the shark lobby. Okay.
Because this is,

Speaker 2 I'm going to say right now, I think more sharks kill. Maybe people have coconut allergies.
Does that count?

Speaker 1 Oh, that's true. I don't know.

Speaker 2 But I think that's not fair.

Speaker 1 You're actively on top of your head.

Speaker 2 Yeah, because I feel like if you die from a coconut allergy, then you're like actively doing something to the coconut as opposed to the coconut doing something to you, you know, because you're eating the coconut, it's fighting back.

Speaker 1 Yeah, exactly. Yeah, I just don't know who comes up with this shit.
They're like, you know what? They're calling sharks dangerous. Well,

Speaker 1 butterflies, butterflies can change the future. I mean, if you step on a butterfly, that can change the outcome of everybody else's life.

Speaker 2 Go tell them that.

Speaker 1 Go tell them if they step on one butterfly, it can change someone's entire trajectory. And then we've got all of these huge things just because sharks don't want to be called mean.

Speaker 2 I just want to say there is an entire Wikipedia page called Death by Coconut.

Speaker 2 It says coconuts falling from their trees and striking individuals can cause serious injury to the back, the neck, the shoulders, the head, and the crack. And it can occasionally be fatal.

Speaker 2 Following a 1984 study on injuries due to falling coconuts, exaggerated claims spread concerning the number of deaths by falling coconuts.

Speaker 2 Fallen coconuts, according to urban legend, kill a few people a year.

Speaker 2 The legend gained momentum in 2002 in the 2002 work of a noted expert on shark attacks was characterized as saying that falling coconuts kill 150 people each year worldwide.

Speaker 2 The statistic has often been contrasted with the number of shark-caused deaths per year, which is around five.

Speaker 2 And concern about the risk of fatality due to falling coconuts led officials in Queensland, Australia, to remove coconut trees from beaches in 2002. And one newspaper dubbed coconuts the killer fruit.

Speaker 1 Wow. Well,

Speaker 2 that's

Speaker 2 the news.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 well teenagers also die from sniffing wide out

Speaker 1 okay

Speaker 1 i just set that up because i was like what else is really dangerous that we're not talking about wide out which we're all still using every day in these this day and age So basically, Harry's like, yeah, it's been halt today.

Speaker 1 They're making small talk. He's making small talk with Serena.

Speaker 1 And he's like, you know, there are a few things that can be approved on probably with Vion because Harry is a tattletale, you know, and if I didn't hate Harry, I would probably, I mean, I don't hate Harry.

Speaker 1 If I didn't hate Vihon, I would kind of be anti-Harry because he really is a snitch. And we all know what happens

Speaker 2 all season.

Speaker 1 Okay. They get snitches.

Speaker 2 They get coconuts.

Speaker 1 They get coconuts. They get snitches after sharks throw coconuts at them.
And they die. Yes.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Yep.

Speaker 2 That's exactly right. Because when you tattle on a coconut to a shark, who's going to get hurt?

Speaker 1 You.

Speaker 2 So,

Speaker 2 yeah. Now, Harry's been a tattletale this entire season, but he's been tattling for the greater good recently.
So we're going to let it pass.

Speaker 2 so he's saying that communication is really bad there's no schedule and he just wants you know and you know like vion needs to be more of a boss etc and so now they've got all these plates to go up for uh for dessert like a lot of plates and they've got almost every plate except they need one more person and so laura's like hello hello adair adair adair i need a dairy because don't forget adair is a dex dude and she's supposed to go back and forth but vion keeps acting like she's like a deckie primarily who he like like leases to the interior for like five minutes every night like they get to have her but like they're supposed to equally have a dairy but he really takes like he he sort of he's always the one to say oh you don't have to do that or you can just go to bed and Lara needs her and so now she's Adair is with Vion and they're distracted and they're goofing off somewhere and the entire everyone else is standing up there in the galley waiting for a dairy

Speaker 2 And because they can't bring the dessert out.

Speaker 1 All right. So they keep rating them, but they're fucking around instead of listening to the radios.
And it's getting very dramatic and below deck.

Speaker 1 Harry's like, come on, any crew, any crew, we're dying here. We have plates to carry.

Speaker 1 I have a family to raise one day with Breech. She's like, oh my God, he said he wants to raise a family with me.
What does it mean?

Speaker 2 And then, you know, Vion and Adair are talking about pedicures. He's like, I think I want to get a pedicure tomorrow.
And finally, like, Alicia just like darts to her room and puts on her her blacks.

Speaker 2 So that way she could bring it up. And then

Speaker 2 finally, Adair and Beyonce were like, come sort of like sauntering in, like, oh, do you need any hope? They're like, well, finally, you're here, but it's too late. We already got it figured out.

Speaker 2 You know, like that sneer, like sh like

Speaker 2 fucking

Speaker 2 idiots, you know?

Speaker 1 He's like, we were just finishing cabins, mate. I had to dry showers and shit.
You think that's easy while discussing pedicures? Come on, man.

Speaker 1 And Laura's like, oh, yeah, I bet you did a lot of work. And he's like, okay, but Adair, are you going to bed? And Laura's like, no, can Adair do her job, please? That would be great.

Speaker 1 She goes, yeah, I'll do this and then I'll go to bed. Listen, Missy.

Speaker 1 Yeah, listen, Missy. You better get your ass to work.
I know.

Speaker 2 Thanks for doing us the honor of gracing us with

Speaker 2 your presence during your job. Thank you so much.

Speaker 2 So then Vion goes to like get a hug from Zarina afterwards. And she's like, don't touch me.
You fucked up.

Speaker 2 Really fucked up, Joe and he's like are you sassy Harry sassy Lara what did I do wrong he's like doesn't matter you know it's just like everything today a lot of communication stuff I feel like there's just been pressure from your side putting it on the interior and they're really slipping up both on your side and it's just getting really mixed up and then I just feel like in the galley I'm just left there I don't understand why people cannot communicate because she's complaining about communication but what she's communicating also needs work because she's like you know I just feel like you're kind of putting pressure on the interior and now they're slipping up.

Speaker 1 No, say you're fucking flirting on the job and you're not, you're going down there while she's supposed to be working. Nothing is getting done.
You guys aren't on your radios.

Speaker 1 We needed people up here. My fucking

Speaker 1 Sue chef had to get on a different outfit to do your job because you were fucking around off your radio. Like, why, why isn't it ever specific?

Speaker 1 It's just like random, you're putting pressure on interior. I don't know what that means.
And he doesn't need to.

Speaker 2 Communication needs work. Yeah.
Like, just stop being fucking lazy.

Speaker 1 Yeah. They need to specify what he's doing wrong because I I feel like every time they tell him, it's just like, well, you know, your staff is fucking up.
No, you're fucking up.

Speaker 1 You're not doing anything right. You're fucking flirting instead of doing your goddamn job.
And you're making that girl flirt instead of doing her goddamn job.

Speaker 1 And you don't have your radios on, but it's not. It's always like some weird, like,

Speaker 1 you're putting pressure on your staff. And it's also from Lara.
And he's like, what? What does that mean? I'm putting pressure on.

Speaker 1 And so Lara takes dessert up and they have dehydrated strawberry dust, which

Speaker 2 how no one didn't snort that up is beyond me i mean yeah fear factor starts early so then um afterwards after serving this dessert the the deckies are sitting in like the little booth in the crew mess and harry's like did you not hear the radio calls it was like anyone that was like trying to get people to come like couldn't find anyone and bian's like why is she angry with me though i mean serena like how am i putting pressure on the interior and he's like well i'm confused at the time like you know what i don't even know what time i'm supposed to go down tonight i don't even know what time i'm supposed to go to sleep you know brie got excited when he said, what time am I supposed to go down tonight?

Speaker 2 She's like, oh, finally, a sign. Oh, never mind.
He's talking about going to bed. So Bion is like, he's like, well, this is actually going to make me angry.

Speaker 2 Because when he was on lights, on nights, there was like no problem. You know, when Johnny was on nights, there was no problem at all.

Speaker 2 But, you know, but like everyone knew what they had to do, like going to bed, nothing. Now there's zero complaints.
But now that you're on nights, there's like, I wake up, there's a complaint.

Speaker 2 And is it Laura that's complaining about someone not being there eight in the mornings or two comments? Is it you? He's like trying to turn it around like this is Harry's fault.

Speaker 1 Yeah. He's like, Yeah, when Johnny goes and works tonight, nobody, nobody complains about anything.

Speaker 1 And Harry's like, Wait a minute, what am I doing? He goes, Well, I don't know, but every now I wait, now I wake up and there's a complaint.

Speaker 1 So if it's not Laura complaining about not someone, then it's eight in the morning. Like, you can't do cabins.
And he's like, What? You're not making sense.

Speaker 1 And he's like, But I just, Harry's like, just tell me what to do. Just give me like a specific list of what you want me to do.
And he's like, It's not rocket science. Come on, guys.

Speaker 1 You know, like, just come down at one, come back at nine. It's got nothing to do with the list.
And he's like, well, I know how it works. I'm not dumb.
Or I just want clear communication.

Speaker 1 I want a schedule saying this is what the night person does. This is the hours they do.
This is what the morning person does. This is it.
Maybe you should write it down.

Speaker 1 And Adara's like, I like things in writing.

Speaker 2 And so Vion's like, oh, you know, people are really just pissing me off. Okay.
So then he goes and he like writes down a schedule on the whiteboard, which is what he should have done all along.

Speaker 2 And he's acting like

Speaker 2 he's definitely doing that thing where harry's like i just would love it if you could write down a list he's like no i'm not going to do what you say i'm the one around here so guess what i'm going to do i'm going to write it down in a list it's like yeah that's what he was asking for

Speaker 1 so then everyone's in a bad mood right now so alicia comes in and she's like so is this a bad time to ask if anyone wants to try cream for the cheesecake and they're like fuck no when is it a bad time to eat cheesecake cream get in get in here

Speaker 2 and then behan is like all right everyone look trash, tables, drinks, sundeck, rinse over the sword when possible. It's that simple.

Speaker 2 It's like, yeah, so then why have you not written this down? Because they clearly need to know what to do.

Speaker 2 And in fact, it was like two weeks ago when Laura was like, do you have a list where you write down like a checklist of doing things like cleaning, cleaning broken glass that's lying at the bottom of a table?

Speaker 2 Things like that. He's like, no.

Speaker 1 And he made Harry come in with all the stuff because he didn't know how to do a list, remember? Yeah. So Harry's like, well, don't get angry with me.
And he's like, I'm not getting angry.

Speaker 1 I'm just saying.

Speaker 1 So then Serena is telling Laura and Bree that she snapped at Vion, you know, and she's like, I mean, joke around when you're done with your job. I mean, I'm a feisty bitch today.

Speaker 1 So Jason tells them, you've got some fun coming up. And Laura says, you know, there's going to be an eating challenge, a sensory challenge.
It's jungled. It's wild.
It's adrenaline. It's art.

Speaker 1 It's art.

Speaker 2 So Harry is annoyed. So he's muttering to himself.
He's like, for fuck's sake. And Jason hears it.
He's like, hey, normally you're all happy and, you know, swinging your limbs around.

Speaker 2 What's everything all right? He's like, yeah, yeah, I know. Yeah.

Speaker 2 Yeah, it's good. Which is that thing you do when you want to be on the record for saying that you didn't immediately tattle, but you want to, you're basically saying, I was pressured.

Speaker 2 Ask me again and I'll tattle.

Speaker 1 Yeah. He's like, why don't you come into my, why don't you come into the bridge, mate? I'll put on a kimono.
I'll put on my feeling kimono and you can express your feelings.

Speaker 2 Now, when you tell me your feelings, here's the little megaphones that way everyone in the hallway can hear you got it okay right he's like you know it's just you know the

Speaker 2 you know it's the scheduling is all over the place like you mentioned like last year we had a greed up here breakdown here things there and like that'll probably be a good idea this time around

Speaker 2 and um basically

Speaker 2 Vion is in the hallway and he overhears Harry and he's like listening in and this is kind of sucky too because now like Jason has pulled Harry to the side but didn't like I don't feel like Jason protected Harry by closing that door And so now Harry's going to get in trouble with his boss.

Speaker 1 Yeah. So he hears that he's being tattled on.
And then there's like, what are you doing? Spying? Come on. He's like, no, I'm not spying.
I'm just getting things from my book.

Speaker 1 So then Harry just basically says, you know, there's a lot of negativity and it's bringing everybody down. Now, Jason, even though Jason is kind of making Harry tell him, Jason hates this shit.

Speaker 1 Like he does not want to get into interstaff stuff. He just wants to like work on kimono designs, you know?

Speaker 2 Kimono designs.

Speaker 1 He has like negativity from who and he's like well vion says says something and then johnny follows it and then i follow that you know it goes through a chain and he goes well then the what you need to do is get positive but harry's always positive that's not the problem with the positive person it's the problem with the negative person

Speaker 2 here And the thing is this, Jason knows that Harry's always positive. Harry is always like happy-go-lucky and like, oh, ho, ho, I just put a nanker down.

Speaker 2 And the fact that like Harry is like moping around and seems like upset, Jason knows something is fucked up.

Speaker 1 Like something has gone wrong in the department yeah so vion's like oh my god what the fuck is going on like what are you even saying loyalty is extremely important to me and i don't really know if i can trust this guy anymore

Speaker 2 so now it's eating contest time it's the fear factor moment yeah so they they try all these things like the eyeballs the hippo eyeballs that are just like leeches with like something in them like blackberries or something and or a blueberry and the fingers whatever they eat their bat but vion is still moping around.

Speaker 2 He's like, It's actually upsetting me, bro. Like, that's one person on this boat that's like fucking all this.
Like, there's no communication.

Speaker 2 Like, I don't know how many times I need to sit down with this girl. Like, now I'm putting pressure on them.
Like, what? So, is he angry at Lara now, or is he angry at Harry?

Speaker 1 He's angry at everybody because everybody feels like everybody's talking about him and he's not doing anything wrong.

Speaker 1 So, now it's just this big ball of mess where everybody's trying to make him look bad. You know, he's one of those.

Speaker 1 It's like, if it's everybody on the boat, babe, maybe it's you, you know, but he's just gonna blame everybody everybody else because that's how he rolls. So then

Speaker 1 he's like, so Adair, we can clean up all this crew mess stuff. And she's like, can I just sweep and be done? And he's like, no.
She goes, yes. And he's like, uh-uh.

Speaker 1 And she goes, okay, I'm going to bed then.

Speaker 2 So now there's more of the miss, it's the grabbing into the buckets, full of buckets with the garbage bags. They're grabbing in stuff.
And they're like, oh my God, what is it?

Speaker 1 What the fuck is it? So then the next drama is Adair with Marina. She goes, You know what? Like, you should be on service next time.
Like, you're never on service.

Speaker 1 She goes, Oh my god, I love service so much. I just want to be on service.
And Adair tells her she's being too nice about it.

Speaker 1 And she goes, Well, maybe Lara has a better bond with Bri, you know, and she wants to be with Brie more.

Speaker 1 Like, I don't know, I don't know, but I've been so professional, very dedicated, and extremely sexy. And this is becoming embarrassing, you know.

Speaker 1 Like, after a while, you question yourself, what you're doing.

Speaker 1 Your store is on date night.

Speaker 2 So then, um, Alicia is in the galley, and Johnny is, of course, flirting with her, and he's like right up on top of her, basically. And he's, and she's like, Oh, oh, you got my Hoover.

Speaker 2 Thank you for getting the vacuum. He's like, I'm ready to get married.
Have children. Tell them how to lean up against the rock.
Be a good husband. Everything.
Maybe Gironio, but who knows?

Speaker 2 We'll see what happens.

Speaker 1 I brought Hoover just as a husband would. Let us make baby.
She's like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa.

Speaker 1 So then Harry asks Laura if he could have a guest cabin so that he could set up a snuggle. And she's like, a fuck.
He's like, no, snuggle. What are you kidding?

Speaker 1 That's like a 10-year anniversary type thing you're talking about. Come on.

Speaker 2 Oh, well, I'm so glad you guys are finally going to get a little bit more physical.

Speaker 1 Physical?

Speaker 2 No, I'm just, I want to buy... I bought a bag of snuggles and I want to put it on there.
I know that little white bear is so cute, isn't it? I think that Bri will really like it.

Speaker 1 I want to be able to to lay on the bed with Free and then have a partition between us so we have to judge each other based only on a certain personality trait.

Speaker 1 We're trying to make a lover's blind moment.

Speaker 2 So, okay, so Lara's giving some orders to people. And Lara, people go to sleep, but Laura stays up and she decorates the crew mess to say happy birthday to Marina.

Speaker 2 Her birthday is the next day, as we mentioned. And then Harry is up late working because, you know, it's Harry.
And Vion, of course, is lazy. So it's the next morning and everyone is waking up.

Speaker 2 And Marina goes in and sees everything that says happy birthday. And she feels so much better.
She's like, oh my God. Oh, I can't believe it.
I finally feel seen and loved. Oh, goodness.

Speaker 2 I still want to be on service, though.

Speaker 2 Don't get it twisted.

Speaker 1 Yeah, they all just start throwing dirty underwear at her head. Do I get these clean? She's like, okay, that was short-lived.
So Vion is like, oh, my God.

Speaker 1 I'm going to have Harry doing, you know, look, I was mad at Terry yesterday. You know, for sucks, for fuck's sake, bro, why are you making my job harder? And Adara's like, do you want another coffee?

Speaker 1 And he goes, yeah, of course. Make me more, make me another one.
So she comes down to make a coffee and Jason's down there in the crew mess. And he's like, who are you making coffee for?

Speaker 1 And she's like, me, Vion.

Speaker 1 And he's like, you're on deck. And she goes,

Speaker 1 he goes, uh-huh.

Speaker 2 And are you on break?

Speaker 1 And she goes, no. And he goes, okay.

Speaker 1 So how can you have coffee when you're working? She's like, because I'm going to bring down my glass. Okay.
There's an empty glass. There's needed to be some coffee in it.
So I'm putting coffee in it.

Speaker 1 What is confusing here?

Speaker 2 I think you guys are missing the point. Like, you're on deck, not break.
Yeah, but like, coffee will be on break, but we're going to go up there and be on deck, but be with have a coffee with a break.

Speaker 2 We're having coffee breaks on deck. That counts as being on deck, right? If you have a coffee break up on deck, it's like, it's not what it's not what it's about.

Speaker 2 That's why it's called the real world. Okay.
And Laura's just there. She's just cleaning a surface and shaking her head she's like it's not a retreat

Speaker 2 so um uh yeah so that's adair is so dumb and i love that vion is talking about like oh harry's not doing his job he's just making my life more difficult and like actively sending adair to get coffee and not helping out on the deck at the same time

Speaker 1 so he's complaining about serena uh to laura he's like i mean serena came to me very angry saying i'm putting a lot she wasn't very angry first of all saying that i'm putting a lot of pressure on the interior she goes well you know, sometimes there's not really much structure in the deck crew, you know, like they're running around doing their own thing.

Speaker 1 And Adair in the crew mess and Captain's sitting there while she's making coffee. I mean, it's 20 to 8, you know, do you think someone that has been up for an hour working needs coffee?

Speaker 1 And he's like, probably not. Never mentioning that it's his coffee she was making because he's him.

Speaker 2 That's right. Because, you know, he's like, well, someone needs to take control.
She goes, that's your job. You're in charge of that team.
They need to know.

Speaker 2 I mean, it's crazy that he says someone has to take control.

Speaker 1 That's the point, dude.

Speaker 2 You idiot.

Speaker 2 She's like, they need to know that there's repercussions if they haven't done it. I mean, at the moment, they're just living the dream.
This is super yacht. It needs to be perfect.
It's not.

Speaker 2 He's like, Jesus Christ, I'm not lying. I promise you, I ran up those stairs.
I'm running up these stairs. But this is going around in circles in circles.
It's like, no, it's not.

Speaker 2 She's telling you, get your shit together. You're embarrassing.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's going in circles because you don't change anything. So she's like, whatever.
Just take me back to my own boat. So now he goes to complain about Laura.

Speaker 1 So now it's everybody against Fionn, you know? So he's like, oh my God, she says I have no structure. I mean, are we even working on the same boat?

Speaker 1 And John D's like, if they want drama, let them drama. We know drama.

Speaker 2 We have DND.

Speaker 2 So people wake up and they're going to go, they have to get up there for breakfast and everything.

Speaker 2 And then it's time for anchors because they're going to drop off everyone.

Speaker 2 And Johnny is, Johnny goes up to the captain and he's like, excuse me, Captain Jason.

Speaker 2 I just want to ask for permission today. After drop-off, may I take Alicia to vacuum stores so I can show her all the hoovers?

Speaker 1 Yeah, sure. I don't care.
I would like date night with Alicia. We are visiting wedding chapel and birthing home.

Speaker 1 All right, well,

Speaker 1 that's romantic.

Speaker 1 Would you like a come on now?

Speaker 2 So Adair is like, Captain, Captain Adair, okay, I'm off on the dander to the marina. And he's like, all right, great, great to hear that.
Hope that you can find some coffee up there.

Speaker 2 So

Speaker 2 then

Speaker 2 Johnny comes into the galley and Sweeney's like, are you here to flirt with my sous chef again? I mean, how many vacuum cleaners can you bring in here? We've got six already.

Speaker 2 Running out of room to cook my soups for Fawkes.

Speaker 1 You must ask about our marriage. It is hierarchy.
You need to ask. And she's like, okay, hierarchy.
Oh, boss lady, can I go with this semi-hot person to eat things?

Speaker 1 things and she's like oh my god i have so much power right now let me think about it better you than me do you mind wearing um goggles on your head that will camera all of this back to me just so i can live vicariously as you're fed by a man

Speaker 2 johnny vr so then um now it's time to docking docking docking docking docking docking docking and they dock and then the guests the guest lead the lady the primary she has a whole speech i have to say she really nailed her speech she was like i have to say this was one of the greatest days of all, of all time.

Speaker 2 When we started this charter, we had three main goals. The first was to connect with old friends and connect with new ones.
Second was to explore exotic lands and just goes on and on. But she does.

Speaker 2 I was like, I'm exhausted.

Speaker 1 Do you have three?

Speaker 2 She has a lot of points to make, but she was like, she clearly had practiced.

Speaker 2 And you know what? Good for her. You're on TV.
Way to nail it. They leave.
And Jason calls Vion to the bridge. And

Speaker 1 meanwhile, while he's going up there, Harry's asking Johnny how he's feeling Johnny is just exhausted and Harry's like well I don't like all the negativity on deck team it's not helping me work period if the leaders are like that the whole team's like that like yeah but you're being negative right now Harry so yeah Harry is kind of causing a lot of it a lot of the negativity because he's running around tattletaling on everybody you know and that's not to say Vion doesn't suck obviously Vion sucks but Harry's not really helping the vibe, you know, so Jason sits him all down for tip meeting and he's like, all right, sharpen your team up.

Speaker 1 All right, like I caught a deer down there getting you and her coffee this morning and that's the moment I need you to step up and say, no, we don't need coffee after 7 a.m. All right.

Speaker 1 Do you understand? He's like, blink, blink. Okay.

Speaker 2 So not teaching your team the right way is not a leader. At the moment, I'm talking to you like a head of department.

Speaker 2 But the next step is for me talking to you like a customer for a kimono, a beautiful kimono. Would you like to touch it? It's wonderful.

Speaker 1 And he's like,

Speaker 1 why didn't you go on the beach trip? And he goes, there were five already. Yeah, but you were the one assigning people, babe.
Why are you acting like you have nothing to do with any of this?

Speaker 1 And Jason's like, well, it would have been nice for you to pencil that in. All right.
So you could see how it was done. And nobody knew how it was done.

Speaker 1 You know, and I don't want to nitpick everything, but it's also come to my attention that you wear bathrobes instead of kimonos. I'm not going to stand for that.
All right.

Speaker 1 And there's negativity and there's moaning and you're moaning to everybody. You've got to stop it.
You know, I heard that because Harry moaned it to me.

Speaker 2 He only moaned it to me because you already started the moaning train.

Speaker 2 okay so if it's not sorted out i'll make changes and you know you know you're qualified to be here so do your job but now you've got to be a good leader and actually lead he's like which i am because vian whines so much like we can't emphasize how much he is whining during this episode he's like i'll do my best to be to be to lead the team better to help the interior as much as i can but it's not my fault he's like thank you very much So he never takes accountability.

Speaker 2 It's so annoying.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 Jason's like, well, there's negativity. And he goes, well, I'll do my best to lead the team better and help the interior.
And he's like, okay, then.

Speaker 1 So then Vion to himself is like, I don't have time for this bullshit. As he walks off.
So,

Speaker 1 oh, that was before tip meeting. Sorry.

Speaker 2 Yeah, that was just like a private meeting.

Speaker 1 Yeah. So I was a private meeting.

Speaker 2 private dancers. So then Jason has a tip meeting and he, you know, he says, oh, it's good, but, you know, communication is a problem, as we all know.

Speaker 2 This vague thing is happening about communication so improve it even though i'm not going to give specifics about what needs to be improved so he gives the um he gives the helmet to marina and he's like there's i can't give it to her for being a bad worker because she's great at working and it's her birthday so let me give her the helmet so she gets the helmet and she's not happy about it i need a consistent helmet award where the helmet is given to the person he fucks up that's it you can't be like this is the worst thing and you could just have to get over it and wear it but then be like but also you're the best worker and it's your birthday so you have to wear it what the fuck

Speaker 1 i know

Speaker 2 uh

Speaker 2 so she gets it and jason's like all right now i want the heads of department to stay back okay now each of you stand there

Speaker 1 how tall are you i need to know what size kimono i'm going to give you all each of you is getting a complimentary one i want you to wear it on charter and really try to sell it on the gifts thank you so much for your participation in this he's like now listen when you see dick hands standing around or in the crew mess getting another coffee it's getting getting to me it's getting to me and beon's like yeah and he's like okay so you guys have a chat i'm not going to lead this at all while i'm talking about leadership you guys figure it out goodbye so he leaves i was like come on man i think it that this is i think it's a point where he should be in the meeting with the heads of department i guess obviously the problem is their communication how do you know how bad it is if you're not sitting there in them in there listening to their communication Sit in there.

Speaker 1 Exactly.

Speaker 2 So Zarina starts it off and she's like saying she needs more support. She wanted more information about the picnic.

Speaker 2 She didn't know simple things like the walk from the catamaran to the car and how the car is going to be set up. She would have packed things differently, would have made her life easier.

Speaker 2 And he's like, but I couldn't say to you, hey, this is how it's going to go because I've never been there.

Speaker 1 I'm like, well, why didn't you go?

Speaker 2 Why didn't you scout it out? Why didn't you do some Googling? Why don't you do some basic research? And Lara's like,

Speaker 2 but that's the thing with last night. I felt like I came to you and I said, could you please take control of the game thing?

Speaker 2 I mean, how many times do I have to say, four buckets with garbage bags on top? It's that simple.

Speaker 1 Yeah, and then the service, you know, like what we're doing, when we're going, who's serving who. And, you know, the deck team is having so much fun.

Speaker 1 And I need the support from you to be like, let's do this, you know? And he's like, oh, really?

Speaker 1 Well, this is why I have confusion because, like, how much time do I allow someone to be in the interior? I can't be everywhere. And she's like, have my back.
And he goes, but I do.

Speaker 1 And she's like, no, I don't think the deck team respects you. And I don't think they do what you say.

Speaker 1 And Serena says, you need discipline. You know, there's time for banter and fun.
And he goes, no, this is not how I manage. I prioritize sleep, eat, and, you know, listen, we don't just make beds.

Speaker 2 Love letters.

Speaker 1 Love letters.

Speaker 1 He's like, write in book. Because, you know, we're not just making beds.
I work with cranes, jet skis. Yeah, you're not even doing that right.

Speaker 1 The fucking chain was fucked up today while you were looking at pictures and you put out a leaky thing and could have killed someone in two feet of water, sir.

Speaker 2 He's like, I want you to go out there and work for an hour.

Speaker 2 So I was like, well, well, well, if that's so hard and being in the interior is so easy, then it should be no sweat off anyone's back to go help bring a plate upstairs.

Speaker 2 So then Zerena's like, well, you have an explanation for everything. You've not once said, yeah, I fucked up.
Not once. And Lara goes, ugh, just madness.

Speaker 1 And that's where it ends. Another meeting where nothing gets accomplished because he's not listening to shit.
Yeah, Jason needs to be there for this stuff. That's crazy.

Speaker 2 Yeah, this guy's such a piece of shit. Oh my God.
I hope he gets fired. Truly.
Anyway, well, it's just another another blow deck and another shitty boatsun. That's the way it goes.
