Why have I asked my electrician I found on Angie.com
to bury my pet hamster nibbles in our yard for me?
Because I was so moved by how carefully he buried my electrical wires.
I knew I could trust him to bury my sweet nibbles
after his untimely end.
Huh, nibbles gone too soon.
May he scurry in peace.
They say about your pet, but I just wire stuff.
Nibbles would have loved you like a brother.

Sarah and Vinnie Alice, 97 three.
Beautiful girls.
Alice, oh, ow, ow.
Away from you.
Yeah, that's where she's going.
Yeah, you were just singing out loud and doing the whole thing.
And I thought, Hey, Annie, what's your name?
I could see that scene right now with cheese ball dice and Dave.
That's a girl going away from this.
Yeah, bye.
Whatever this is.
Goodbye.
Bye.
Ha, ha, ha.
Oh, happy Friday.
It's Friday.
It is Friday.
Everybody is looking forward to the weekend.
The weekend.
The whole thing, saying it.
You feeling it?
I want to hear about all the days.
I was feeling it.
I'm confused about the days.
I never understand them.
Woo!
Woo!
Fun, fun, fun, fun.
Looking forward to the weekend.
The third day was Thursday.
Mm-hmm.
The day to day is Thursday.
Oh, all right.
I don't know, that's the first day.
Are you?
She doesn't sound that sweet.
No.
Her and all the people in the car were there.
Oh, yeah.
Marrow.
OK.
And the day comes afterwards.
You got a church?
I don't want this weekend to end.
You should back up.
There you go.
Yeah, that was good.
Oh, I'm starting to know.
Everybody, chill out, you know?
Big day.
Don't get so excited.
We're so excited.
You know what, there's a couple things.
First of all, today might be the one year anniversary
of Bob working on the show.
We're calling it.
That's crazy.
Why do you think that?
One of our listeners sent me a note and said,
I want to make sure that you guys don't blow this
because I really like her.
It's her one year anniversary, and you guys
should do something nice.
And I was like, I don't, that's not really what I do.
So I texted me so that I would do something nice, which I did.
Yeah, look, Sarah made me.
I definitely wanted to, is that one of your bottles?
It is, is one of my bottles.
It has a, has a yin yang on it and a little,
and it's all rainbow striped.
It looked kind of hippie-dippy to me.
And I love it.
I love it.
Is right around the corner.
One year?
Yeah.
It says it is.
Oh, it's beautiful.
Isn't that pretty?
What are you going to put in it?
Water.
Oh.
Water.
Water.
Amazing.
I love it.
And I got in some lemons.
Totally.
So happy one year.
And I can't believe it's been a year.
And you know what's funny about it?
Vinnie goes, I think it's, I think it might be her one year
anniversary.
And I'm like, man, we fell so hard and fast for Bob.
Yeah.
Do you remember, because your birthdays in like what,
three weeks, something like that?
And we did, I remember that as being like,
sort of our first big, on-air thing that we all did together,
we opened up like a fund delivered,
which are all these undeliverable packages.
Oh, yeah.
And I was like, that was like, maybe two, three weeks later
at the most, like we just brought her in.
And we, and she was like, immediate.
And we even said, before, right before she,
we were like, oh God, there's gonna be some new person
in here running the cameras.
Like this is gonna suck.
Then we laid right down.
And we were like, have your way with us.
Okay, let's not use that terminology.
We're here for it.
Just take it.
Stop.
I don't even need to just take it.
Oh, hers, just take it.
No.
Stop.
We're not in my anniversary.
She can do anything to me.
I just, I'd be like, okay.
If that's it, you know, she asks us to do the most ridiculous
thing on the regular.
And we both, we go, all right, we'll do it.
Like, who else, like Maddie, we just go,
no, we're not doing that, but it's Bob.
Bob, you're special.
I can't believe we got to spend a year of our lives with you.
So far.
I'm having a bus.
Oh, there's a call.
Oh, I got a call.
Oh, no, no, no.
Oh, warning silence.
Oh, no.
No.
Oh, this is terrible news.
Is it something to do with the view that we were in?
No, it's that I stink at radio.
Okay, hold on.
Let me erase the thing over here.
Deez on air since last mistake.
Oh, you're going to do that before you put us back on.
We're on.
We're on right now.
I thought you were, I thought we got phone call.
Because everyone was so excited.
Okay, we got a phone call.
Someone told us we're not on, right?
Yes.
So who called you?
Listener.
Oh, thank you listeners.
You guys are.
You missed it.
You missed a good five minute segment where we applauded, I can't, we can't even recreate.
It'll be on the podcast.
Okay.
We think that today is the one year anniversary of Bob joining the show.
We're all excited about it.
We gave her little chauches, we reminisced.
We talked about how hard and fast we fell for her.
You're all caught up.
Oh, man.
Isn't there being alarm like there is, it's, there's a huge thing.
But yes, there should be, there should be something in the, in the room that says it's
been two minutes of dead air or one minute of dead air.
You know, eventually in the past, we've noticed it because wide orbit, which is our computer
system, we'll just start playing something.
It can't handle the silence.
Remember that it was, we're like, why did, why do things keep starting to play?
I don't remember that, but so why doesn't it do that anymore?
It, I think eventually it would have.
Oh, okay.
Wow.
Oh, man.
All right.
God, you know, there's a lot of buttons to push and a lot of things to do in here before
we go on the air.
I've had to make a cheat sheet.
Yeah.
It's a miracle that I, that we are not off the air every day.
And we, I was even practicing and then it's, we've been so busy with different stuff, but
I got to start practicing again.
I got to, I got to start doing that.
It is a good, if something happened or I was locked outside, you'd be able to come over
here and run the board.
That is, it is important.
Yep.
Anyway, that was a buzzkill.
That was a huge, but we played the Rebecca Black song.
I mean, the YouTuber saw it all and heard it.
Oh, that's good.
That's good.
Lucky you.
You were so, what are there?
100 people on there right now.
Let me look.
Can't be.
It's too early for that, right?
No.
That's wonderful.

Why have I asked my HVAC guy I found on Angie.com to change my grandpa's trachea tube?
I was so amazed at how he replaced our air ducts.
I knew I could trust him to change pop-pops tube.
I think we should call it doctor.

Anyway, did you watch Survivor?
Yes, I watched.
I watched.
Oh, yeah, so I think we're unless Bob didn't.
Oh, I watched.
We're all caught up.
It was ready.
I caught up.
No, you didn't.
Yeah, I did a little skip a roof through some stuff and did the recaps and watched the
full last episode.
I'm ready to go.
Talk about Rizzo.
Yeah, we should talk about Rizzo.
Yeah, Rizzo.
Rizzo.
What do you guys think of him?
Loving.
I hated him last season and I hate him this season.
I hate that kid.
Like, I'm sorry, anybody who refers to themselves in the third person is, or yeah, a third person
as Riz God, who is like, I want to be a legend this gets like, no, you're like a buffoon.
Like, is he going to be one of those players that people remember?
I want him forgotten immediately.
Well, he's a kid and he just is doing that.
You know, that term fake it till you like, he's not a guy who actually believes he's
Riz God.
Are you sure?
What was the battle of the nerdy dorks last night in that one tribe where I was like,
these two have instead of teaming up and being team dork, they decide to try and go after
each other.
What?
It was a weird thing.
It was a weird thing.
Any sense.
You're sitting there going, you dumb dums.
You're a team.
You're not enemies.
Oh, they're enemies.
Everybody's your enemy.
And then of course, you know, Riz God, R-I-Z-D-G-O-D, Riz God, baby, no dude, stop it.
Here's the thing though.
All right.
Because I'm with you, you know, if you, if you tell me how he's acting and I'm not
watching it myself, I'm like, giving yourself a nickname, being cocky, being like, I
don't want to be the one of the greatest people to ever play this game.
It's cringe, right?
And yet people, people when they first meet him are like, oh, cringe, but he must be charming.
He's even charmed Jeff, Jeff called him by his nickname.
They invited him back to play another season, even though he wasn't even in the top three.
Here's part of it, I think.
And this is why I think you're being a little harsh.
He's a dumb little boy.
Yeah.
I don't mean dumb as he's just got no life experience.
His life experience and maybe why he's still alive in the game is because he probably spent
a lot of time watching the game.
Yes.
Like that is the outside of the game.
You think that guy's kissed a girl or a boy, whatever his preference is?
He's got no, Riz God, I mean, he's got his, but he's got no Riz, that's the point.
I feel like he is, his big mistake with Charlie, spoiler alert, is that he lied about,
he lied about Sophie being his number one because he didn't want them to know how close
he was with Savannah.
Okay.
So Charlie, who's best friend, didn't vote for him because she was butsor.
So now he hates the guy, which is a weird, I don't know.
It's a weird hill to stake your flag in like Charlie.
I don't know Charlie because I don't know what season he's from, but I was happier with
him go and then Rizzo.
It's the, this is what I was, I was watching these two go after each other and thinking
you two are the same guy in the game.
You're the nerdy young kids who think you know how it all works.
And I just thought, why is he, this is a guy you should go, you know what?
Let's beat super power nerd.
And let's go find Christian and the, the, the three, like those three guys could have
maybe done something together.
But now they've separated and there's no chance.
Right.
No, right.
And the look on beef cakes, face whatever that guy's name is, isn't he the guy who is a stunt
man who lives in a trailer on his, that's not him.
That's a different dude.
Different dude.
Okay.
What is this guy's dude?
I feel like I can't.
What are you talking about?
A beefy dude with the man breast, you know, there's a lot of beefy dudes now, the one,
the one who is blindsided by Charlie getting kicked out of me and Devon's and Charlie
were at the store.
Is it Justin?
I don't know.
I don't know.
But he's, I don't want him to win because he looks like he's got things going on for
himself there.
He's, he's a good looking guy, big guy and he's a big guy.
Yeah.
Oh, he's too good looking to win.
Yeah.
I like the, the idea that you give it to someone like I, you're playing a game.
Yeah.
You give it to the person who deserves to win.
Right.
The one who played the best game and that might be someone who's already a millionaire.
Yeah.
I understand you might go, what that guy's broke, but that guy got dragged along and didn't
just deserve to even be there much less win.
And I think that one of the reasons back to, you know, saying that they, well, they picked
him out of the cast of season 49 to play in this, this season.
That's because there was no one good in that cast.
Like they took the winner and the one, the, the mouthy dude.
Like they were not, that was a terrible cast last season.
I agree.
I didn't, I didn't even finish it.
A bunch of dummies.
I jumped off, but I will, I'll say this.
He's, he's part of the reason you watch the show in that they find these characters.
Yeah.
And he's a character.
There was a guy.
Yeah.
Rome, a couple seasons.
Oh, yeah.
Rome.
He was a, he was fun to watch.
He was fun to watch, but you were like, that guy's, he's got to go.
Like he was so obnoxious.
He's another guy that was popping off and, and, you know, get like, he's the king of
the game.
But at least that guy, I have, I had an impression that that guy may have actually talked to a girl
once in his life.
Yes.
Like, or lived a minute.
Yes.
Like Rizzo is just a guy who sits in his room.
Okay.
Apparently Riz God has a girlfriend named Liz God.
Oh, for God's sake.
I really, God stop at this.
Please.
Why would a lady encourage this?
Aren't you guys supposed to know better?
I think it's cute.
I think she must be young.
It's cute.
Riz God and the Liz God.
All right.
I listened to an interview with Jeff Props a few weeks ago and I hadn't realized he runs
the whole show like for the past however many years and he really thinks super long term
about the show to the point where he's in, he knows he's encouraging kids who are watching
at home to want to grow up to play survivors so that they'll always have new people who
want to play and keep the game going.
And I think that Rizzo is a product of that.
He is someone who grew up watching this game, he's super young, he's obsessed with it.
And now he's on the show and he wants to make his mark on it and I think they're kind
of encouraging that.
Yeah.
I agree.
Definitely.
Speaking to Props, can we talk about his impressions that he did?
That was so good.
Oh my goodness.
He is the best part of that show.
He's stretching out this season in it.
The rap.
Yeah.
I know.
We have to go.
I went, what is he doing?
I agree.
But I, but I'll take anything from him.
But he didn't drop, but like that's one of those things that could start strong and then
just drop right off.
He kept going.
Keep clapping.
I'm on or whatever they were doing.
I was like, he's going to finish and I love that.
He is just, he's the perfect host because he's actually watching the ins and outs of the
games.
He asks the questions that he knows are going to get the answers that they need.
I'm sure those tribal councils are the 15 minutes at the end of the show whittled down
from three hours of interviewing people.
At least an hour.
I think you're right.
Yeah.
It's crazy.
All right.
We're late now.
As usual.
I'm so sorry that we weren't on for the first.
And then I was all excited because I thought we had a, that we had a caller.
Well, we did.
We did.
Thank you for using our phone number 800, 400, 3697.
All right.
