you are listening to the daily round up here as part of the reality see podcast. I'm your host reality see thank you all for tuning in on this Thursday a busy busy Thursday today. Got a double dip from Rachel Juarez will get into that we're also going to discuss Big Brother what's going on there we have an update on one of the couples from the valley we got that late Tuesday night after I'd ordered recorded yesterday's podcast and then we've got our dancing with the stars pairings and I'm also going to go over the social media channels for everybody on the show because there is an absolute runaway in this as we start the competition on Tuesday September 15th. So let's get started. As I mentioned in the open we got a double dip from Rachel Juarez today what is that double dip well number one she is going to be on episode number 5 11 which will be in your podcast feed around nine a.m. Eastern time.
And just like the weekly podcast and we spend about an hour talking about Laura Owens and Clayton Eckerd Laura pleading guilty to four charges last Friday in Phoenix but what does that mean going forward does she come across as believable to Rachel does Rachel think the sentencing is going to happen on October 23rd and a lot of stuff that we dive into. On the Laura and Clayton or more or less the Laura guilty please from last Friday in Arizona and all of Rachel's thoughts on it and then at the end of the podcast we spent about 10 or 15 minutes as Rachel was able to look up the temporary straining orders that Brittany Cartwright and Jack Taylor both filed against each other and were granted and she gives her thoughts on what she saw in those things and what she thinks about the whole situation so that's coming up on the podcast number or episode number 5 11 now the other thing that Rachel is on starting today and continuing every Thursday throughout the NFL season she is going to be my guest on the sports daily where we discuss NFL survivor pools I'm running one that any of you can join it is $10 per entry it's done through splash sports you can go on splash sports.com or you can just download this.
You can go to the splash app do a search for reality Steve you'll see my profile come up at my profile it'll show reality Steve survivor contest click on that click on how many entries you want in the pool it's $10 per entry you can enter up to 20 times we have basically 134 entries so far and I'd say at least six or seven people have a minimum of five entries in it. Pick one NFL team a week no point spread to try and get to the next week however many people are in this pool or however many people and remember many entries there are at the end of as we wrap up kick off on Sunday September 13th once they kick off everybody that has signed up and put an entry in I'll collect your money I'll give you four extra days if you haven't paid by then you got to pay by the week two Thursday night game and then the league safe which holds the money Rachel and I don't make any money off this pool we're just doing it for fun but there is a money prize and that money prize will be determined by how many entries are in the contest right now there's 1,340 well 134 entries which would be $1,340 but there's 17 people 17 entries that haven't paid yet and like I said if you are going to pay do not deposit the money into your wallet when you go to mind
reality Steve survivor contest just click on contest vault it's one of the tabs there that's how you pay for your entries you select how many entries you want to do and then pay through the contest vault some people are saying the mobile app is is a little wonky right now but if you do it on desktop it is very very easy to find that contest vault anyway Rachel is going to be on my sports daily podcast every Thursday today is episode one we're doing a preview we talk about the week one games a little bit but next week we will dive into all the games and we will discuss who we're looking at who will probably stay in a way from stuff like that so it's a little fun thing that we're going to do every Thursday as part of the sports daily so she's on episode number 5 11 coming out at 9 a.m. Eastern time in your podcast feed and also on my YouTube channel shortly thereafter and the sports daily every Thursday will now have a video attached to it and that's where I'm going to do the game. So that'll come out at 9 45 Eastern time on my YouTube channel so every Thursday from now on you're getting two videos whatever my weekly interview is and the episode every week of the NFL survivor contest show with myself and Rachel war is so look forward to that today big brother last night we got to see the ramifications of everything that went down at the end of the biggest twist of the summer we knew that Haley has been gone and then we're going to do the game.
We got to see the H oh H play out and drew when the one thing that we didn't know really even by watching the live feeds maybe we did I didn't watch a ton of live feeds in the last week but Yash basically said I don't want to win this because I can't nominate any of the icons but I would love Meli to win it and it was Melody Yash and Drew that went to the extra bonus round of that trivia contest but drew ended up winning he puts up Lala Yash and Taylor but Yash ends up winning power of Vito Devon's asked to be reading the game. He's been nommed and I guess the one thing all week that I've been talking about is this big decision by Barrett does he flip or does he not based on the edit last night and what Barrett was saying in the confessionals he has this hasn't even been a hard decision for him he has basically said all week I'm flipping and I'm putting up if Devon's doesn't win blockbuster he's gone I want an icon out of this game for the first what eight eliminations or six elimination
I have been playing for other people and I have been fanboying for the icons now it's start now it's time to start playing this game for myself so this isn't really a tough decision by Barrett he's wanted to put out icon all week long now he has no control over who wins the blockbuster tonight if Devon's wins the blockbuster Lala's going home if Devon's doesn't win the blockbuster he is going home D knows and you even heard her say on the episode last night D is very well aware that I don't think she knows for a fact that Baylor Barrett is flipping but she's very well aware that it is the smartest move for Barrett to flip and now I guess what I read yesterday was D is essentially telling Angela if Devon's doesn't win the blockbuster we need to flip and vote Devon's out but blame it on Barrett so there's that and look they once bear it once Devons if that happens and he's out of the game Devon's doesn't going to know who did it or who was the reason behind him going out until long after the game is over so he can't sit there in the jury and be like my gosh D came after me and Angela flipped on me I'm not going to vote for them if either of them get to the final two so it's pretty it's pretty simple I really don't think anything is changing
I mean Barrett for four days has basically been like I'm going to start playing the game yes I've been fanboying for the first what six seven eliminations of the season not more I'm playing for myself I'm getting an icon out if Devon's doesn't win he's gone so you'll have Yash the winner of Lala and Taylor melody and Barrett those will be the four votes and that'll be enough basically to get out of the game and I'll be playing for the first two days only to get out Devons tonight and D and Angela might flip it might be literally a unanimous vote Drew might even flip so at this point that would look horrible for Drew's resume if if Devons goes home on his watch and then Drew would basically be screwed so essentially even if D and Angela don't flip it would only be D and Angela voting for Devons
Yash the winner of Taylor and Lala the one that's not on the block Melody and Barrett are going to be the four votes for Devons I just don't see Barrett all week saying I'm going after Devons I'm going after Devons and then not doing it he sounded pretty convincing on the show last night also on the show last night you know my favorite Zingbot for eight years I've told you I think Zingbot is one of the stupidest things that this show does part of the campiness of the show and I've said I've never heard Zingbot say one funny thing in eight years I will say that I thought the song to Melody or excuse me I thought the song to Drew where he basically sang that melody is never going to kiss him he'll always be in the friend zone and he's going to die alone I thought that was pretty good everything else to all the other house guests you know how you wait sometimes till the end to refer to who he's talking to that wasn't really a secret that's like supposed to be the big punch line it's like we knew exactly who he was talking about I didn't think any of the other ones were really all that funny or all that good but I did think the Zing to Drew was pretty good because that's what everybody online has been talking about
it's pretty amazing that Drew and Melody are as close as they are yet are on completely opposite sides of strategy game moves and opposite sides of alliances like they spend all their time together there's this giant sexual tension between them yet they don't vote together and nothing that Drew does is convincing Melody to stand come to his side and nothing melody does will convince Drew to go to her side they are like they sit there and they make Google Gaga eyes at each other yet she doesn't respect this game and she tells him that to his face it's a very very polarizing relationship I think I think it's kind of funny and I have no idea if they're going to play this up and you know last night in the episode Melody's making it perfectly clear essentially I'm using my sexuality to manipulate this guy because she hasn't as far as we know they haven't kissed they haven't hooked up but my gosh they spend all their time together they're very handsy with each other but it seems like she is absolutely playing him and even if they make it to both get into the jury house one of them doesn't make the final two are they going to hook up there is she having any interest in doing it outside of the house maybe she's just doesn't want to show off some pda maybe she doesn't want to embarrass her family or something like that because some people are just like I'm not going to do it
I'm not going to do that on camera or on the live feeds I don't know but for the game wise she has played him and self admittedly in the episode last night we actually I think this was the first time we have actually heard her say in confessionals essentially yeah I'm going to flirt I'm going to use my sexuality to kind of get what I want he's the H.O.H. basically I'm going to kiss up to him but I'm not going to cross a line doesn't look like they have even D was shocked he's like wait after hearing what Zingbot said he's like wait they haven't kissed yet everybody thinks they have because there's been so much time together and they literally are always hugging each other well he's kind of always hugging her and you know she hasn't complained about anything yet but my gosh how many times does he just randomly pick her up throw her over his shoulder she hasn't said no stop doing it no put me down but maybe she is feeling a little uncomfortable and she just wants to play it off like women do in situations like that on occasion where they're just so uncomfortable they don't want to make it more uncomfortable by saying hey don't do that to me I don't feel right because then it just becomes awkward so they don't say anything and they laugh it off but my gosh the amount of times that drew picks her up just out of the blue
she goes along with it but I'm really curious to see what she says post show about that relationship you know those pieces in your closet you find yourself wearing on repeat the sweater that goes with everything the perfect pair of pants or the tea somehow always reach for first those are the pieces that make getting dressed easy and that's what quince does best quince focuses on high quality wardrobe staples made with premium materials like a hundred percent Mongolian cashmere organic cotton and marino wool the styles are timeless versatile and designed to become the dependable pieces you reach for day after day quince also makes premium pants fitted tees polos and breathable active wear quality basics designed to work across your wardrobe and hold up to every day where everything at quince is price 50 to 80% less than similar brands they work directly with ethical factories and cut out the middleman so you're paying for high quality not brand markup me myself personally summertime it's hot I've gone with the flown it breeze performance polo I've got three different colors I absolutely love them find your next fall favorites at quince download the quince app for app exclusive offers or go to quince calm slash reality Steve get free shipping on your order and three hundred and sixty five day returns now available in Canada and the UK to that's quince dot com Q I N C E dot com slash reality Steve
some news broke late Tuesday night after I had already recorded yesterday's daily round of and it shouldn't come as much of a surprise especially if you listen to me and juliana de Stefano recapping the valley every week we talked about look if it does get picked up for a season four who's coming back and who isn't and based on all the heat that Danny and Nia got all season more so Danny then Nia but the things that they were constantly saying in every episode about how they don't like these people these are terrible human beings they tried to walk that back a little bit at the reunion when they were saying well not everybody certain people in this group anyway it just doesn't seem like they had any fun it clearly took a toll on their marriage well it is official now Danny and Nia are not returning for what seems like is now a confirmed season four because I don't know why you would say Danny and Nia are not returning to the valley if there wasn't going to be a next season it would just be hey the valley has been canceled but the fact that they're coming out and saying they're not going to be a part of the valley anymore I would think means we now have a confirmation that a valley season four is coming and the same people that had this rumor out there a couple of weeks ago or within the last 10 days or so because I had seen that online that Danny and Nia weren't coming back they are reporting that they're going to be replaced by sheena and Brock which
again this is just Vanerpump rules all over again with Brittany on the show I guess the one thing that everybody is waiting for is is Bravo going to bring on Jackson Laurie that's going to be the million dollar question because does the valley improve very much if the only casting change that's made for season four is replacing Danny and Nia with Brock and sheena seems like it would be a lot of the same and also what is Lala going to talk about if she can't jump all over Danny's case for his drinking so I don't know obviously the biggest drama you could get would be to be to bring Jackson Laurie on the show but something tells me that Brittany doesn't want that to happen I don't think Bravo should platform jacks I know that jacks is whole thing is I'm a year and a half sober now or whatever the number of months it is I think it's a year and a half and he's saying like yes the jacks you know in the past is long gone but is it really I mean one of the things that Rachel was and I talk about on episode 5 11 coming later today in the last 10 or 15 minutes is these dueling temporary restraining orders that they both were granted against each other which I just think makes this situation worse it's not helping anybody for these two to constantly battle in social media and it does nothing for their son
crews it's just awful all around and he should not be allowed to be back on the show I know a lot of you are saying oh he's so much drama and oh my gosh how crazy would that be if Jackson Laurie are on next season considering the 23 minute interview that Brittany heart right did with people calm expressing how much he feels betrayed by Laurie of course storyline wise it makes all the sense in the world great put them on the show together next season and let the fireworks begin I just don't think that should happen I don't think Laurie Krebs deserves to be on any TV show I don't think jacks Taylor deserves to be back on TV whatsoever period and of story I hope it doesn't happen so maybe they're going to do some other casting like fill ins maybe it's not just sheen and Brock and maybe it's going to be somebody else maybe somebody knew maybe somebody else will drop off somebody will be added clearly Jesse's girlfriend is going to be a regular cast member next season I would think you know do I think Dr. Dre is going to sign up to be on the valley next season if he's still dating Michelle I don't
think we know if he is or not but if he is dating her there's no there's zero chance that got shows up on the valley but I know that's out there like people would be like oh my gosh Dr. Dre is going to be on the valley next season but yeah I don't even know for him and Michelle are dating anymore is that a thing still has anybody seen them together is outside of literally one photo that got out I don't think any other photos have gotten out between them and I thought I saw him leaving a restaurant with another woman that made TMZ like last month or so but I haven't heard anything either way so I have no idea but looks like the valley season four is happening and it's probably good for Danny and the both as individuals and as a married couple to get the hell off that show because they don't need it it's certainly took a toll on their marriage it brought out the worst in Danny and it doesn't sound like they hadn't any fun all right all they did was insult their cast members all the time anyway so why would you want to go back on a show like that outside of a paycheck
and finally our pairings for dance with the stars came out yesterday these were pretty much all spoiled online on certain websites but it's official now and good Lord I mean I expect Max or excuse me I expect Val to get a good partner every year but to put Val with Jenna Dewan who's literally a professional dancer you can just pencil them into the finals right now I know some people are like I hate the fact that they put ringers on the show and she has so much dance experience she shouldn't be on there's like three or four every season that have some sort of dance background to where they're not just learning from scratch they know how to dance they have musicality maybe they don't know ballroom per se but when they learn dances they have a fluidity to them that it's like okay you can tell that they are a dancer versus someone like Andy Richter any Richter had no flow in his body when he was dancing but it was about his story that kept him around for a long time on the show anyway there is an
Instagram account poptistics which looks like it just started because they only have 27 followers but they're basically doing what bachelor data does and that is talking about combined social media following for all 16 couples of dance with the stars one thing I noticed is that the pro or excuse me the celebrity has more Instagram following or excuse me I shouldn't say Instagram because it is a combination of Instagram and TikTok the celebrity has a higher social media following than the pro and only nine of the 16 couples so nine celebrities have a bigger social following than their pro dance partner but that means seven pro dance partners are more popular than their celebrity partners but the thing with Jenna and Val is Jenna has 12.9 million followers herself between Instagram and TikTok second place the second highest celebrity this season is more Higgins and she's got 5.9 so Jenna Dewan has 7 million more followers than anybody else on this show just for that reason alone you can pencil her into the finals if not win the whole damn thing she's with the arguably the best dancer pro dancer on the show one of the most
likable pro dancers that people want to see every week because people think oh you're voting for all these celebrities and no name delistures no these pros have become just as popular as the celebrities if not more popular than the celebrities and here's Val with the best dancer on the show so pencil them into the finals if not win already but so Jenna Dewan 12.9 second place in terms of the celebrities more Higgins has 5.9 third place is jada de la renter she has got 3.76 million followers Harry Shum Jr's got 2.45 million Jackson Olsen from the Savannah bananas 3.31 million oh see I'm doing celebrities and they're drinking this by combined social following so the star and the pro so fourth place is Harry Shum Jr. he's with Jenna and they've got 5.13 combined fifth place is Jackson Olsen and Emma Slater they're at 5 million six places Tatiana Ali and she's with Jan Rovnik that is 4.66 million combined between them Amber Glenn and Pasha are at 4.59
half way through the middle of the road Connor and Riley Arnold at 4.55 Tyler Cameron and Sharna Burgess are at number 9 4.36 combined million social media following Guillermo and Whitney Carson are in 10th at 4.16 but Guillermo's got 469,000 social media following and Whitney Carson's got 3.69 million so it's there for Whitney we know Whitney is pregnant my guess is she only last couple weeks on this season as we're French the pair Olympic athlete from 2022 right 2024 Paris games he's with Danielle the carigotch and they're at 2.5 million 12th place C.R. Miller and Brandon Armstrong I was surprised that C.R. was so far down she's got 1.8 million followers but Brandon doesn't have a strong social media presence he's only at she's got double what he's got he's only got 7.68,000 followers so they're at 2.35 combined Julia styles less than a million but she has skyrocketed ever since she was named to the cast yesterday so I think she's over a million now she's with Ezra Sosa 14th place is Sarah Jane Nader the sister of Brooks Nader she's dancing with a woman Haley
Bills they're at 1.1 million 15th place Taylor Hanson from he's with Brit Stewart neither of them have a big social media following he's got 273,000 followers she's got 623 so they don't even they don't even have a million followers combined between them and then Conor Levit Whitney's husband dead last because he is with Adele who was just named the dance with the stars the next pro winner but she's only got 75,000 combined with a million followers so I don't expect Conor and Adele to go very far but Adele is a great great dancer big fan of hers but she's not training ballroom so that'll be interesting to watch how good is she and how good she can she get and catch on to ballroom dancing anyway thank you all for listening really appreciate it follow me and I'll podcast also rate and review but you got to hit place the only way it counts as a download don't forget sports daily coming up in an hour from now it is the weekly Thursday show that will take over my sports day
