We are talking about It's Big Brother unlocked. The live feeds are on. We're talking Big Brother 28. And we're so excited to have you here. We're with us and we are here with the man who we are handing over the keys to Big Brother Friday nights to it's Chappelle. Chappelle. How are You.
Chappelle
Hey, I'm here. I'm here. I'm excited because the live feeds are on. I'm excited because the live feeds are on. We finally got it. Thank you, Andy the intern, for making that happen. And then thank you for everybody coming to join me for B.B. unlocked. Unlocked, right. That's what this is.
Rob Cesternino
I think that we're just calling it Big Brother Friday night right now.
Chappelle
Big Brother Friday night.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Chappelle
It's okay. I think we could punch it up.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. Chappelle Unlocked.
Chappelle
Chappelle Unlocked is great. I love it. I love it.
Rob Cesternino
All right, here with us, we had a big announcement tonight. Chappelle. We learned the identity of the person who's coming into the house. The mystery house guest. Big mystery people were had all these wild guesses. Nobody had it right. That big surprise. It was D. Viadaris. And here with us, season 45 zone. Brandon Donlin is here.
Brandon Donlin
Every podcast needs a beta or a submissive, and I can do both. Okay, guys. That can do both.
Rob Cesternino
Yes. Find somebody that can do both. And that's what we said. And here's Brandon. And we're so excited to have you here with us. And, you know, I said this morning, I said, brandon, we need to have you talk more about Big Brother. Your friend is on the show. Why aren't you talking more about Big Brother?
Brandon Donlin
Well, it's interesting is, you know, there were rumors about my friend going on the show days and days ago, but real ones didn't say anything.
Rob Cesternino
You didn't say anything?
Brandon Donlin
Didn't say anything until tonight, and now it's announced, so now I'm happy to talk about it. I don't want to be propagating rumors, but now it's not a rumor. So we're locked and loaded.
Chappelle
Okay?
Rob Cesternino
We're locked and loaded. We're unlocked and loaded, even. And we just watched the season premiere of Big Brother Unlocked, which appears sporadically on the Big Brother schedule on Friday nights. They also turned on the live feeds just now. Taran is off doing his job, watching the live feed so that he may report on them to you for the first Big Brother live feed update tomorrow morning at 11am tomorrow. So be on the lookout for that when we get the full report of everything that happened overnight. We also to have live feeds on right now. We will bring you some updates on that as well. Right now. Bunch of people are in the kitchen. Not a lot's happening.
Chappelle
Listen, this is what we signed up for. This is what I've been waiting for. I've been waiting all week. Hell, all Year to sit around and watch these people eat cereal.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Chappelle
To whisper to. To. To exercise. You know, it sounds bad when you put it like that, but make no mistake, this is what Big Brother is made of. Okay. They're sitting around the table, but eventually they're going to tell us what's going on.
Rob Cesternino
Eventually. Yeah. That they started the live feeds. Tonight, 9:00pm Eastern, 6:00pm Big Brother time. Objectively, maybe the worst time of the day for the live feeds, when everybody is standing in the kitchen, nobody's telling any secrets, everybody is just making food. But we haven't had the live feeds in a year, so we're excited.
Chappelle
Yeah, for sure. And, like, I'm so happy that Taran is allowing me to step in, you know, as the Friday coverage for Chappelle Unlocked, because somebody does need to be watching the feeds when I can't watch them. So, you know, and so since Taren, you said he could do it, Rob, tomorrow he's going to do it again. That's his whole thing. And so I can wake up tomorrow morning, I actually don't have to watch the live feeds. I like to pretend that I want
Rob Cesternino
to watch it as a choice.
Chappelle
I watch Taryn. Tell me about the live feeds. That's what this is really made about.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. All right, so we'll talk about the season premiere of Big Brother Unlocked. We'll take your questions as well and talk about everything else. But, Brandon, how you feeling about Dee so far?
Brandon Donlin
I mean, how fun. I love that I got to see three minutes in total of her in the game of Big Brother, which is what everybody wants is to only see a limited amount, but she looks like she's crushing. It didn't. I was trying to gauge the reactions of everybody once she walked in to see who recognizes her, and I don't imagine it's more than three or four people. What's interesting is you got confessionals from both Rome and from Camus talking about her threat level, which I wonder if they knew. If they knew that or those were done after they had talked to her for a little bit.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, I know that after the fact. Yeah. Because the. There's no way they could have done a diary room like that early on. So I think that she's coming to the house. Stuff has gone on, and then I think. Then they're talking about her threat level.
Chappelle
Yeah. Brandon, I feel like I need to. I need to break something to you. Dee is not your real friend, because friends do not let friends go through this. It's like one. You should have stopped her from going on the show.
Rob Cesternino
But two, you have a time machine.
Chappelle
You could go back in time. You could definitely do.
Brandon Donlin
They might. They might have a time machine.
Chappelle
But three, here's the problem. You him. This. This is crazy. Why would she goes in the house and now you have to spend the next three months losing sleep and stressing out. I would not be able to. I'm going to do that anyway. I'm going to do that anyway. I was going to say I'm not going to be able to do that, but I'm going to do that anyway. And we ain't even that close. This is your best friend. How do you feel?
Brandon Donlin
Yeah, this is a weird one because in the time that I've been, like, part of this world, I've never known somebody personally to be on this program ever. This is the first time, and I'm not, I'm not liking it. I saw Becca Devins's Instagram story this morning, and she just, she looked so tired. It's only been 48 hours.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Brandon Donlin
Back up. Yeah. So now I'm Dee's back up. I guess in a real way, I'm not, but I'm somebody that Dee knows.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Brandon Donlin
And I'm thrilled.
Rob Cesternino
Speaking of somebody that Rick Devins knows, earlier tonight at a podcast where Taryn and I talked with Dr. Christian Hyubicki about his feelings about what's going on with Rick Devins. And so be sure to check out that interview. Very fun. To catch up with Christian. And so. All right, we have D has entered the Big Brother 28 game. Hypothetically, how do you think it's going to go, Brandon?
Brandon Donlin
I think that there are not a lot of people in the world that can lock in the way that D locks in. And I, I, I know this because I know D. I know other people that know D. I'm in a room with one right now. When Dee went to the challenge, she was like, I'm just having fun. And he goes in the challenge and it goes. It goes great, but it doesn't, it doesn't accumulate in a win when she goes to 550. I think there was a lot of. I'm honored to be asked, and I want to represent the show. Well, not that she wasn't trying to win, of course, but it seems like these locked in on taking a wide and when you look at the group that she's with, it doesn't seem impossible that she can take that W. So I'm expecting a much longer journey for D than I am on the other Folks that are. Are with her. Will it be a fun journey?
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, we'll see.
Chappelle
We'll see.
Rob Cesternino
All right, Chappelle. It was the season premiere of Unlocked. It comes back in season two. What was your thoughts on what was different about Big Brother Unlocked tonight?
Chappelle
Well, for one, I'm a little upset that they decided to scam us like this, you know, like, really holding this carrot in front of our faces and being like, oh, you gotta watch Unlocked to find out all the stuff. I was so annoyed because I. I was like, I don't want to watch Unlocked just as a concept. You know, don't get me wrong. Love to. Love to cover the show for you, but just to know that y' all gonna keep the good stuff from us, the feeds, keep them down and hide this other stuff just so we'll come here. I was already annoyed, but I did like the changes. I like, you know, them adding a third to the panel officially. You know, no more rotating channel for them, but also, like, kind of the way they handle, you know, kind of pulling back the curtain. You know, I. I really enjoyed seeing them in the dressing rooms and things like that. So there were definitely moments where I thought, this isn't so bad, but I definitely felt scammed.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, I thought it was an improvement from Big Brother Unlocked season one. It's interesting. The vibe, the setup. It's kind of like. Would you say it's like they're. They're at, like, some kind of, like, podcast nightclub where people are at bistro tables watching. How do you get tickets to be one of the people watching the live taping of Big Brother Unlocked?
Chappelle
I don't know, but I need that. I need that. I don't know why, but I just feel like I need it. What about, you know, what about you, Brandon? You gonna go?
Brandon Donlin
I don't think anybody in the room knew they were seeing Big Brother Unlocked. I think that they had tickets for maybe. Maybe if you want to go to the let's Make a Deal, they're like, we need you to do one thing for us for 45 minutes.
Chappelle
Yeah.
Brandon Donlin
And then you get sat in the Big Brother Unlocked stage. I'm super curious as to now. This is my first ever episode of Big Brother Unlocked. I know they've been doing this for a minute. A lot of the material was so pre them going in the house.
Chappelle
So what is.
Brandon Donlin
What is. Week 2 through 14 look like a Big Brother Unlocked? Like, what do they do it?
Rob Cesternino
So they do a lot of segments. They do a lot of checking in with other people and they talk a lot about what's going on in the past, that they watch a lot of clips of things that have happen and comment on different moments from the season. And so I think they had a lot of stuff that maybe they couldn't fit into the premiere.
Chappelle
Yeah. And I think that in the future, Brandon, they're going to be cutting the feeds and saving some of the good stuff for. For Unlocked. You know, like you said, we got a lot of stuff from pre the show, which is perfect. Right. We needed the extended package for Angela and Dee and Devin's, you know, to really get to know them. Because for us Survivor fans, we know Devin's.
Kelly
Indeed.
Chappelle
But for the Big Brother only people, they're like, okay, like, why are y' all so excited about this? They acted like that when Cere was on the show. They were like, why are y' all talking about three? You know, so we need somebody to really come in and highlight the greatest hits, why these people are here. They even did it for Angela, which is cool. I mean, no Big Brother fan probably has forgotten about what her greatest hits were. But I think that in the future, since they're not going to have that kind of pregame content, they're definitely going to be trying to build that content otherwise. But, Rob, you remember in the old days, you know, Big Brother would come to your. Your grandma's house and interview her about the show, and she. They bring your ex on and they talk about it. They need to do more stuff like that.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, they did a little bit of that in Big Brother Unlocked last season. I hope we get more of that. And so we'll see what happens. We had some interesting things that happened. We got the reveal of D and let me play something that I think was an interesting moment. We had a little bit with Lala last night saying that she was not thrilled. When was it Angela came into the house, and then she was not thrilled when Dee came into the house. Listen to this.
Chappelle
Y' all were on the same season together though, right?
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, we were on 50 together.
Chappelle
Okay, now, see, the rules in Big Brother, you're not supposed to know anybody.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, I didn't know that rule.
Chappelle
I know a better rule. Shut your mouth. Stop telling people stuff. Auntie Latrice. Lala, what are you doing? What are you doing? This is the second time she done said something on the show, on the aired show where I thought, don't do that. And, you know, you can come back from it. But we want to talk about rules. Keeping your mouth closed is a great rule. And if you want to hear more about rules, you can catch me talking about rules with David Bloomberg on yx Lost every week.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, Brandon.
Brandon Donlin
It was really giving Christine Shields Markovsky of the. Their temporary.
Rob Cesternino
Temporary player. Temporary player. Now, I believe that Rick Devins was also trying to tell a story about like, yeah, we. We did. We did. We know each other. But it. It didn't go well. Like that. Rick is aware season 50 of Survivor has already aired. Right. Like, why is he telling a fake story?
Chappelle
That didn't happen.
Rob Cesternino
There was no issue with Rick Devins and d in season 50 and he
Brandon Donlin
voted her out, which is a weird. It's a weird point to make of it didn't go great.
Chappelle
I mean, well, maybe he's worried he
Rob Cesternino
voted her out in like a 10 to 4 vote. Had nothing to do whatsoever with Rick Evans.
Chappelle
They don't know that.
Brandon Donlin
Yeah, it's an interesting. It's an interesting play. I get.
Chappelle
Yeah.
Brandon Donlin
He didn't get the chance to fully pursue because Latrice was very quick with the. You guys shouldn't. With large exception. I guess people on Big Brother don't know each other, but oftentimes they do. Oftentimes each other.
Chappelle
All the time.
Rob Cesternino
They know each other famously.
Chappelle
All the time. All the time.
Brandon Donlin
Since.
Chappelle
Since season three. We pretty regularly have people on that know each other. And I mean, season three, season. Well, hold on. Season four, season five, season seven, six. Season six.
Brandon Donlin
That was like the whole thing.
Chappelle
Season six and season seven was all stars. So about 50.
Rob Cesternino
50 on whether somebody knows was also. They know each other.
Chappelle
Yeah.
Brandon Donlin
Season nine.
Rob Cesternino
Season nine. They did not.
Chappelle
Something to each other.
Kelly
Yeah.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Chappelle
Okay. And then sometimes it's not even by design. You know, Holly and Cat went to Stagecoach together or something like that. You know, things happen in Big Brother and Christy and Tommy is Tom. Christy was Tommy's aunt's girlfriend's cousin or something like that. All that stuff. This. This is normal behavior. Latrice, be quiet.
Rob Cesternino
So I'm acting like this. Yeah. I think this is an interesting situation with Rick and D. They are not on the same page. It's not like Rizzo and Savannah coming back for season 50 where they have a chance to get their stories straight. So they have not had the chance to premeditate what they're telling people about them that they were. They were fine.
Brandon Donlin
I did hear you speak with Christian earlier where Christian reiterated. But I will also reiterate is that they are. They are on very good terms.
Rob Cesternino
Yes.
Brandon Donlin
Like, they very much enjoy each other's company and I think. And I have a guest and a little bit that can speak to this also. But I think the thing that De Reiterated to me over the past couple months is she wished that she got to work with Rick Moore on season 50 and regretted not doing so. And not even regretting, but I wish that she would have.
Chappelle
Wishing.
Brandon Donlin
I think the sentiment was she would have had more fun.
Rob Cesternino
Yes.
Brandon Donlin
So this is where you make up for that.
Rob Cesternino
They came a long way. Because if you go back and read the Dalton Ross preseason article that he wrote chronicling the trip to Fiji, the whole article is d. Just crapping all over Rick Devins about how annoying she thinks he is and how she can't stand them and how he is not gonna. I. I thought Rick Devins was done after I read that, but she warmed up to him.
Brandon Donlin
She warmed up. Do we see on this show it circle back to where it started? There is a potential that that may happen. I hope not, but I can see a world where that happens.
Rob Cesternino
Small house. It's a small house. You know, people that you think that you once thought were annoying, you may think are annoying again.
Chappelle
Mm. Especially after 40, 50, 60 days, you know, it's a. It's a long time in there. So we will tell you that you have to, you know, know that Big Brother is a marathon, not a sprint. Rob, Rick did lie about one thing.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Chappelle
He said his biggest moment in Survivor 50 was that hiding that idol and finally get a travel counsel. Did he. Did he miss the Mr. Beast episode?
Rob Cesternino
I don't know. There was his crime in his highlight package. I. I noticed the same thing. Chappelle. No mention whatsoever about. Is. Is Mr. Beast, like, not allowed to be mentioned on Big Brother? Why that you would think that you have Rick Devin's greatest hits. We talked about, like, season 38. I went on the edge of extinction, and I came back. Yeah. I played Idols and then, like, every single thing Rick Davins ever did, and then no mention of the. Like, did they make this package three months ago? No mention whatsoever of that. Oh, yeah. I also flipped the coin and made the prize money $2 million.
Brandon Donlin
The DocuSign is still sitting in his inbox. I think he forgot to hit the little initial button. Very weird. I mean, you had Drew last night saying, oh, it's the coin flipper, which I guess for. For Survivor, for people who only watch this show.
Chappelle
Yeah.
Brandon Donlin
Coin flipper. But no. No clip.
Rob Cesternino
No clip from the coin flip.
Chappelle
Yeah. Which is crazy because that, to me, of all the things Rick Devin has done, that is. That is. That is the moment. Right. And so he talks about how he wants to be chaotic, which sounds about right. So I'm very concerned about Rick Devins, but one thing about him is that he's never been boring. The man doesn't know how to be boring tv. And so he's going to be here for a good time. Let's just hope it's a long time.
Rob Cesternino
Yep. Okay. We didn't get to hear from either of you last night about the saga of the premiere, and we revisited this a number of times in the Big Brother Unlocked of Rachel Riley getting pushed into the volcano by the dinosaur Chappelle. What were your thoughts as this happened?
Chappelle
Well, okay, I have mixed feelings because you can't just murder Rachel Riley in front of me after what happened last season and think I'm going to be okay with it, you know, getting attacked by a velociraptor, that's new for Big Brother, which is hard to do because Big Brother will do some wild stuff. But I think I like that Big Brother leaned into the craziness. You know, they really committed to the bit. Rachel didn't come in and wink at the camera about being in. She was all in full form, like, I'm here. She was doing all the Rachel greatest hits. Nobody's gonna come between me and my, you know, blah, blah, calling people. What. What was it? Trifling, you know, or whatever, you know, the old Rachel hits. She. Maybe she didn't do that in this one, but it felt good to have her back. And then I noticed the timeline. I was watching. I was watching social media, and people were, like, just losing it. Like, Rachel's in the house. Rachel's the house. And I said, oh, you know, for those of us who might have heard a rumor that DVD was going into the house, you know, well, I'm like, oh, this baby. This baby switch is gonna be crazy because everybody's insanely, like, obsessed with Rachel and what she's doing. The switch, you know, knowing the switch is coming, I thought, all right, this is gonna be a really big moment. And I thought it was. I really did. I think Julie leaned in. I thought it was crazy. Now, to murder Rachel Riley in the Big Brother house is actually sacrilegious. And, Julie, you need your. You need to go to jail. Prison. Under the jail. Don't do that. Don't do stuff like this. I don't care if you go back in time. Somebody go back in time and arrest Julie Chan. Is that. Did that answer your question?
Rob Cesternino
Yep. Yep. I mean, yeah, Julie, she. She really took the whole thing pretty well. She was. She was not affected.
Chappelle
Just moments ago, a velociraptor threw Rachel into a volcano.
Brandon Donlin
So what does it mean for the others now?
Rob Cesternino
What does it mean for the others? I do like that we've gotten to
Brandon Donlin
a place where it feels like everybody's in on the joke. Right. I think that we would do crazy stuff like this in years prior and they would not treat it as such. And now we don't. Nobody cares. Which I. I think is great. I. You ever see like a video on. On Tick Tock and it's like a. It's an AI water slide. And then you, like, watch it, the whole thing. You're like, I don't think this is AI. I think somebody has a GoPro. I. I was so embarrassed that I believed it. When Rachel walked in, I got it.
Rob Cesternino
I was like. When they said, we're going to Vegas in the year 2010, I'm like, did D live in Vegas in the year 2010?
Chappelle
And Brandon's like, no, that was my question.
Rob Cesternino
Yes.
Chappelle
Yeah, that was my question. I was like, wait, why would D be in Vegas in that year? But, you know. Yeah. I think that because we're so used to the live feeders, the Big Brother fans and Stans being so tapped in on anything secret in the Big Brother house. Right. We've been. We've been on the case for weeks and weeks and weeks. So I thought you finally got one past us. You finally got something past us. They did not.
Brandon Donlin
Well, not for anything. And I'll call him out. Jimmy. It's Jimmy all day on Thursday, tweeting, there's a fourth person. Which now makes sense. There was a fourth person. But as soon as it popped up, I. I really thought it was Brendan. I thought because it's weird to have Angela, Rick D, and not another guy. I'm thrilled that we didn't get another guy. But it made sense to me that it was Brendan and then once it was Rachel. I still. I bought it. I'm like, wow, they got one over on us. But then she was murdered. And then she was murdered on the television at 9:30pm in a volcano. They got you in a volcano.
Chappelle
Her kids watched this show. I mean, look, don't she. She was like, dressed like what, Wilma Flintstone? She looked good. But if you gotta die, I guess you gotta die looking. Go. Go out looking. Looking great.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Chappelle
Maybe that's what that is.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. I don't know. I don't know if the audience was ready for this. Yeah. I asked my wife, hey, what'd you think about that? She's like, she's like, that was planned, right? I was like, no. I was like, yes, babe. Like, Rachel's dead.
Chappelle
No, they really murdered her. They really murdered her. Duh. The check out candy crush this week, you know, you can see who's on it. No, I, I, I, I thought it was fascinating just because it did feel like for once they've managed to surprise us. We expect the unexpected so much on Big Brother that it's hard to catch us off guard. And seeing Rachel go in, especially knowing, knowing how they did her last season. I'll take getting pushed in a volcano by a velociraptor over that hamster wheel any day.
Brandon Donlin
She tweeted today that she was making alliances in the house. In the hour or two that she was there, I would love. Do we think, do we see that footage? Do you think that makes it next week?
Rob Cesternino
No, I think we got like a discussion from Big Brother. Unlocked. I think that was it.
Chappelle
Yeah, it should have been unlocked because I honestly, Brandon, that's what I was waiting on. I was waiting on. I was like. When they asked Rachel about people, she's like, oh, this person's sweet and this person's nice. I think they're all gonna be competitors. Like, no. Who was in on your alliance? Who would you have put up? You know, you were in there for roughly an hour and a half. I know you got plans. I know you. You came up with something. But we didn't get all we can
Rob Cesternino
ask her on chat bcc. Oh, she's on there.
Chappelle
Yeah, Back.
Rob Cesternino
Oh, yeah, she's doing a live stream there like 10 minutes ago.
Chappelle
Oh, my God.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, she's alive.
Brandon Donlin
He's doing live streams. She's back.
Chappelle
This is a thing now?
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.

y.com I didn't think the pain from the shingles rash would affect simple everyday tasks like bathing, getting dressed or even walking around. I was wrong though. Not everyone at risk will develop it. 99% of people over the age of 50 already have the virus that causes shingles and it could reactivate at any time. I developed it and the blistering rash lasted for weeks. Don't learn the hard way like I did. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist today. Sponsored by gsk.
Rob Cesternino
I want to talk about something else that happened with Rick Devins. We had another secret scene revealed of Rick Devins with Taylor and we saw Rick Devins come into the house and that Rick Devins was, you know, saying hi to everybody, giving hugs and he kind of left Taylor hanging. She wanted to say hi to him. He ended up saying hi to somebody else and she was not happy. She went into the room, she said that she is going to hold it against him. And so Rick inadvertently made an enemy at a Taylor.
Chappelle
So quick.
Brandon Donlin
I do have to side with Eric Levasseur, which is not a thing. I think I've done a ton in my life. But he. You're, you're in there, you're talking to everybody you miss.
Kelly
It's.
Brandon Donlin
It's 14 people. It's 15 people. It doesn't, it certainly doesn't feel good. There's no doubt it doesn't feel good. But I don't know. She was really, really upset. I felt bad.
Chappelle
I am not going to side with Derek Lavasse here. I'm going to side with Jerry o' Connell because listen, the lady did not have a blow up. She didn't freak out. She went into her bunk and told us, I'm going to get him for this. And that's what we looking for in a player we like. When Tiffany Irvin was on Survivor 50, she's upset. She goes off on the beach, screams, calls people ugly, whatever, you know, whatever. She's writing her burn book. She does that.
Rob Cesternino
Jonathan is.
Chappelle
Then she goes back, escape, escape. He called it, he, she called him the escanky, but she did it behind his back, which is what we like. And so I'm with Jerry, like, look, you can be upset, you can even hold a grudge but don't act like you're holding a grudge. That's what, that's the difference.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. And I'm not sure what the three host said and who, whose opinion was that? I think it was, you know, not great strategy. But I also think she's going to be good television based off of this one moment that I have from her. The fact that she could get so upset over getting snubbed by Rick Devins. I feel like that. Okay. I understand why she's here.
Chappelle
Right. That's what matters the most. Good tv.
Rob Cesternino
Yes. And we love that. So we'll see if that comes up. Rick Devins, no idea that this woman is plotting his demise.
Brandon Donlin
Not, not, not a clue. Not a clue.
Rob Cesternino
Yes. So we, we really love that Chappelle. We had a Surrey sighting tonight. Cerise tips for playing big Brother. You know it's funny that there, there was a video that they posted of Rick Devins like, hey, meet Rick Devins, meet Rick from Georgia. And he's like, it's so funny because in Survivor 50 Suri all the time would say how horrible it was to play big brother. And here I am. And we got that from her tonight.
Chappelle
I'm just so used to giving and now I get to receive. In the words of the late, great Jocasta, you know, I get to receive saree. Being on TV is what I always want. I don't want to read, to ever play big brother again because she hated it. But we did get her tips and one of her tips was Rick, shut up.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Chappelle
And I love that because he tells us. This is what I got from siree. Big brother sucks. But she said. She says, well, since you're going to go in there, just make sure you stop talking. Because that's what made big brother suck the worst for her. She was tired of hearing people talk.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. So she had five tips. Tip number one, settle in. Putting on your seatbelts. Big brother's long. We know this. But she said she would rather be hungry than then listen to the same conversation on repeat. And she. I felt like she really seemed to imply that Rick Devins might be telling the same story over and over again.
Brandon Donlin
You think that was a subtweet of Rick? I thought that was a subtweet at the. At the Bowie Janes of the world.
Chappelle
I thought it was Boy Jane too.
Brandon Donlin
Yeah.
Chappelle
I thought that was bj. But you know what? Honestly, Rob, now Rick has better stories. You know, she was listening to his stories pre 50. Now he could talk about the coin flip. He could talk about the fake idol. You know, he's got some more ammunition.
Rob Cesternino
But did Bowie Jane have a lot of stories? I just feel like that Bowie Jane walked in a room. They're like, effing Bowie Jane. I can't believe it. With that freaking, like, big, stupid jacket. Why is she here?
Brandon Donlin
Did you see the clip today? And it happened during we were the 25, which I don't think I stuck with all the way through. But Felicia said about Bowie Jane, like, people like her burn in hell.
Chappelle
Was it Bowie Jane where Felicia was like, yeah, and go check on Bo. See what her ass up to. See. See what the hell she talking about.
Brandon Donlin
I love the quote. And they cut it right. The feeds turn off after the word hell. But it was a very funny clip that I saw today.
Rob Cesternino
Three's rule number three. If they all disappear in a room they're talking about, you don't even bother following them in there. That you know what they're talking about. Tip number four was get up early. I was like, all right, here we go. This is maybe some Big Brother strategy. No, get up early because everybody needs to pee, and you'll be the last in line to pee in the Big Brother house.
Chappelle
I like that. I like that because I. I think there's a lot of podcasts that dedicate their time to telling you how to win the game. Right. Again, like the podcast that I'm on every week with David Bloomberg. YX Lost, where we go through the rules about how to win Big Brother. But you also have people like Taryn who wrote a book about it, and they always talk about the strategy, but some of the questions, you know, Rob, you were. When you were on Survivor, people always ask you, where do you use the restroom? And Big Brother, I think it's important to talk about, you know, how to maintain yourself over that time. Because if I have to wait in the line for the bathroom every day for months and months and months. Yeah. It'd probably make playing the game a lot harder.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Brandon Donlin
A lot of pee in this episode.
Rob Cesternino
A lot of pee. A lot of people mentioned to pee. And also peas. We like. Yeah, I'll take the p. I'll take
Chappelle
the pee over the peas. The peas was disgusting. Why did you put that. Why did you put that can of peas in the microwave? Stop.
Brandon Donlin
You never want to microwave a pee.
Chappelle
You never go back in time and arrest her, too. When you arrest Julie, arrest Ashley. Since we using the time thing, we don't use it for good.
Rob Cesternino
Well, I want to talk about all of their surprising facts in a minute. But then reason rule number five was, mind your business. She said, if you hear somebody else's secret, don't tell anybody.
Brandon Donlin
Keep.
Chappelle
Keep it. Keep a secret. That'd be nice.
Brandon Donlin
Yeah, that sounds right.
Rob Cesternino
Okay. All right. We had a segment all about something surprising. We found out that Ashley's favorite snack is opening up a can of peas and putting them in the microwave. And then just. She seems to be, like, eating them like popcorn.
Brandon Donlin
Nobody's ever done this before.
Rob Cesternino
No.
Brandon Donlin
I think she's globally the first person to do this.
Rob Cesternino
Yes.
Chappelle
She invented this. It's called the Ashley method.
Brandon Donlin
And Derek says, no butter, no salt. Like, he had more questions. You have to imagine there's butter on this. You have to imagine.
Rob Cesternino
No, I didn't see. She put butter on them.
Chappelle
Is butter a natural pairing with microwave peas?
Brandon Donlin
But butter, you put on, like, a vegetable that you cook, you know, corn. You throw some butter on it. But, yeah, she was really raw. Dogging it with the. With the hand, scooping and inserting.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Chappelle
Diabolical.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. We did get to see Rome's Pokemon cards.
Chappelle
Decent collection. You know, I think people in the preseason were like, is he a nerd for real? Because he has trading cards. You ain't say Pokemon cards. That's different. You know, we thought you had some couple baseball cards or something like that. A good old Mickey Mouse or whatever, but, you know, you got Pokemon cards. Let's see them. Air them out. Yeah, I need to hear about that on the feeds.
Brandon Donlin
Can I. Can I give a fun fact about Rome That I learned today.
Chappelle
Sure, sure.
Brandon Donlin
So there's a. There's a TikTok clip going around and it's somebody scrolling on Rome's TikTok. And every video starts with if I had a daughter and she brought home a guy who blank. So I was so curious of what content he's putting out. So I go on his TikTok and every video and I'm not going to remember an athlete's name, but every video is if I. My daughter brought a. Brought a guy home and he didn't know who Hakeem Elijah on is, he's out. And it's that video a hundred times with different.
Rob Cesternino
It's always the name of an athlete.
Brandon Donlin
It's always the name of an athlete. It's Hakeem Olajuwon. It's. It's. I'm not gonna remember any of the names. Yeah, I know. Hakeem Elijah one was what. It's a lot of that content.
Chappelle
You're out.
Brandon Donlin
I don't know any who those guys are.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Brandon Donlin
Hakeem Elijah wanted in the Asher Roth song. So I remember that. But other than that, I don't remember any of the names that I heard.
Chappelle
I love that.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. Is he a popular tiktoker with that line of content?
Brandon Donlin
No, I think Yash is. Is doing more numbers on TikTok. I think. I think I caught Rome's following as a maybe a 10k. And I think Yash has got a little more.
Rob Cesternino
Yes. That could. Yash have a financial analyst off with Emily Flippin.
Brandon Donlin
They could have a haircut off. I know Emily loves to get a haircut and Josh, I guess, gets one.
Rob Cesternino
That was his surprising fact. He got his own hair.
Chappelle
I hope he gets a new barber.
Brandon Donlin
Didn't they put a guy in here who, like, does that?
Chappelle
You don't have to do this. You don't have to cut your own hair anymore. Yash, you should let someone else try it, please.
Brandon Donlin
And Chuck. What was Chuck's fact?
Rob Cesternino
He does a British accent.
Chappelle
Yeah. But it didn't seem like enjoying that.
Rob Cesternino
He's seriously not good at doing a British accent.
Chappelle
He killed that door. The explorer blink, though, like, you know, the hard blink. He said, I guess when he goes into the hoh room and he's just trying to. To fake it. So. Yeah, we got. We got a little snippet of Chuck.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. I want to talk a little bit about Mallory, who I think has had like, quite a week here on the podcast where she was really heralded by the. The panel When Puya drafted Her on Wednesday night where. Wow, Puya, you got a real steal. She's actually. She's not a nerd. She's a secret nerd. She faked her way into the show. I saw people congratulating Dan Geesling on, wow, we have a new person. She's not a nerd. She tricked casting. She did it. She's the new Dan. Geese sling. And now here we are 48 hours later. I do feel like we saw her playing the trombone and we heard her talk about her dream that she went into the house. She said, she said this.
Chappelle
So I was a meth cook and
Narrator/Announcer
all the people were like zombies chasing me.
Rob Cesternino
And Taylor said that she called her at least, like, extremely tight, intense.
Brandon Donlin
All of her promotional stuff. She was very much. She was in frame. She was in first position.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. And there seems to be at least an awkwardness here.
Chappelle
Have you ever dreamed of, of cooking meth?
Rob Cesternino
Never.
Kelly
Yeah.
Chappelle
Now look. Zombies. Understandable, right? That's a decent nightmare. Okay, Yeah, I feel like that's pretty run of the mill nightmare. But dreaming of employment, even if it is method, I think she's found a new level of, of nightmare. I don't know what's going on with this woman. Yeah, I don't trust it. Honestly. I think I did watch the, the way people's, you know, perception of her changed throughout the week. It was like, oh, she has on glasses in a park. She must be Kelly or something. And then it's like, okay, wait, wait, she. Wait, she wears bikinis, so maybe she's a cool chick. Wait a minute. Then she, like on the NASA sheets or whatever, and she's like. They're like, wait, she's a nerd again? She pulled out the trombone. She's a musician too. Who knew?
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, she.
Brandon Donlin
She did have the whole Carson Garrett bedspread thing going on with the, with the NASA pillows and the spaceship and stuff. It's like, I've seen that before on a. On a close friend story that I think I got removed from. But it's a, It's a great situation what he's got going on. I wish her luck. Would you rather cook peas or cook meth if you had to cook one?
Chappelle
Method.
Rob Cesternino
Oh, wait.
Chappelle
Oh, I answered that way too fast.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Chappelle
Go, Rob. Let me think about it.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, I think that there's less questions if you're cooking meth. There's less.
Brandon Donlin
Yeah, but is meth, like, delicious? Like, can you make more delicious meth
Chappelle
when you cook it?
Brandon Donlin
Like, because peas, you're probably capping off at a Certain point of this is the best. The peas.
Rob Cesternino
Walter White. He could have made the best peas. He could have made, like, the 99. 90, you know, 8.9% pure peas.
Brandon Donlin
Is he. He's the one who knocks.
Rob Cesternino
He's the cook.
Chappelle
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Call it. Call it Blue sky, you know?
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, yeah, Yep. Okay.
Chappelle
Blue sky, peas.
Rob Cesternino
Blue sky, peas.
Brandon Donlin
Can we talk about intern Andrew?
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. Intern Andrew is a big character on Big Brother Unlocked. He's a returning character from season one. A Big Brother Unlocked. They really just dunk on intern Andrew all the time.
Chappelle
He's in my notes as Andy the intern, and I'd like to say his whole name, if that's okay with y'.
Rob Cesternino
All. That's fine.
Chappelle
I love him. I love him. I feel like if I was in the house and I had to do shout outs every week, my bit would be to give a shout out to Andy the intern. No matter who else. I gave a shout out to my mom's birthday, like, hey, hey, mom. Shout out to mom. And also Andy the intern. Like, that would be me. This man is an icon. I hope they start paying him. Pay your interns, Derek. I don't know why I'm blaming Derek. Pay your interns, Julie.
Brandon Donlin
God, this should have been like a. Like a. The Survivor 41 idol phrases where if you shout him out, you get, like, an advantage. If he tells everybody, it's like in Willy Wonka with the. The gobstopper is like, you got to give it back at the end. If you. If you shout him out, then you get something.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Brandon Donlin
Because no, nobody's gonna do it. No, he's gonna shout it. Intern Andy.
Chappelle
It would be my dogs at the crib. I would do it all the time. And it's Andy the intern. Don't make me correct you again. Please be respectful.
Brandon Donlin
He's my anti.
Rob Cesternino
Andrew. Yeah, Andrew.
Brandon Donlin
Full name.
Chappelle
Andrew is his father.
Rob Cesternino
We found out about the vote. Okay. And I think this is kind of a big deal. BB Time Capsule vote for one house guest to win a power or a punishment. This is kind of like they're going on a journey. We're gonna pick one person to go on a journey, and you could either get a power or you get a punish. A classic punishment.
Brandon Donlin
Do you. Are both of those things available to win or we're going to vote for somebody to get power. One week, no punishment.
Rob Cesternino
I think you're voting for them to go on a journey, and if they complete the task, they get the power, and if they lose, they get the punishment.
Chappelle
Okay. What if the punishment is a fourth, like, returnee reality person. Right. That's where we get Brendan or something like that. I feel like the punishment needs to be good for the first one because as the show goes on, it will diminish, you know, by. By the third or fourth punishment. It's just to be a leotard.
Rob Cesternino
Well, I think that Rick Devins is going to be the week one recipient and the polls are open. What is bbvote.com.
Chappelle
do you think the big Brother voters are going to vote for Rick Devins over Angela?
Rob Cesternino
I think that Angela is not universally popular. I think that Angela is polarizing. I think Angela is well known, but I don't think that Angela is beloved, to use a word that is from Love Island. I'm trying. Who was the fan Favorite from BB26.
Chappelle
From BB26.
Rob Cesternino
Right. I think it was Tucker.
Chappelle
It was Tucker. It was Tucker. And he was gone so early in the game and it was still Tucker. Like, no, he's a big deal, you know. Rob, what about Latrice? I think her moments have stood out a lot on the show.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Chappelle
You know, with her spanking Taylor, I think that might have got a few votes.
Rob Cesternino
I think I. I think she will win one of the six and I. But I think that it's going to be a returning player and I just think that Rick probably has the most momentum coming off of Survivor 50. Yeah.
Brandon Donlin
I think if you know Rick, you're gonna vote for Rick. Like, if you have knowledge of him, that makes the most sense. I do. I do see that. And that's what brother needed. 90 minute episodes. Let's do Journeys. People love when we do journeys. I'm thrilled to hear that they're gonna do more. I hope this one. I'm gonna vote for D for this week, but you don't have to join me if you don't want to, but I think. Yeah, Devin's. I feel like it's a. Yeah.
Rob Cesternino
Okay. Anything else from Big Brother Unlocked? Because I feel like we do have some spoilers to talk about now that we have the live feeds here.
Chappelle
Then. Then Bear, was it. Barry wants a medal for catching things in his mouth. I don't know why I put that in my notes, but I just thought that was interesting. You know, Drew talked about his ridiculous hair where he, like, sleeps upside down like a. Like a bat to let his hair dry. That was odd.
Brandon Donlin
A lot of you do that. That I didn't like.
Chappelle
It's very scary. He better not sleep like that in the house. Was that Corbin on Love island kind of gave that same vibe too. Like a corpse. Yeah, I know, Ball. But yeah, Rob, overall, I think we can move on because I. We got some spoilers. We gotta talk about the feeds.
Brandon Donlin
Ladies, ladies. You know what I did write down in my notes? My final thought was you think you're friends with somebody and then you learn from their big brother intro package that they can juggle. I didn't know D could juggle.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, he was juggling.
Brandon Donlin
I've never seen him do that. One time.
Rob Cesternino
You know who I seen be juggling on the feeds is Camu. Could be.
Brandon Donlin
Well, let's see what happens. Yeah.
Rob Cesternino

Rob Cesternino
So with that in mind, we're going to talk about what we have learned since the live feeds have come on and anything else. So if you are not interested in knowing anything before, for Sunday night, we will bid you adieu. But in the meantime, for the first time In Big Brother 28, let's talk about the spoilers The Office of Civil
Chappelle
Defense has issued the following message. This is a spoiler warning. A spoiler warning means that an actual spoiler against this country has been detected
Rob Cesternino
and that protective action should be taken. Can I steal a spoiler? Okay.
Brandon Donlin
Yes.
Rob Cesternino
Yes. Let's talk about it. The feeds are here. Baby, you did it.
Brandon Donlin
Yes.
Rob Cesternino
And it was well before the live feeds, it was actually Hamster Watch who confirmed, I believe, on Thursday afternoon that D was indeed in the House. And not only that, D was the first HOH of Big Brother 28. Yeah.
Chappelle
This propaganda that has been going on in this community where people have been told not to win the first hoh. For the love of God, read behind the mirror. That's old hat. We win the first hoh, get power, prove that you cannot be trifled with, get a House consensus and put them people on the block. Set the tone for the season.
Rob Cesternino
Go D. Go D. Okay, so D has won the first hoh. And we have also learned at this hour that D has recently made nomin nominations, I believe as recently as Today. And Chappelle, we have three people who are currently on the block.
Chappelle
We knew the three people who were on the block about six to nine minutes, but after they cut the live feeds on. I love how fast this community works. Yeah. Like who is on the block?
Rob Cesternino
We have on the block that I know it is. Mallory, Yash and Taylor are on the block.
Chappelle
Yikes. Man. It ended up on the block this early on. It's not great, but we. We gotta tune in to the live feeds to find out how did this happen? Because I don't know if I would have just guessed, Rob, that this would have been the three that ended up on the block. Yeah, maybe Yash.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, I think.
Brandon Donlin
I think I would have guessed.
Rob Cesternino
I'm sure by the end of the night we'll have more information about how this all came to be. But, Brandon, any thoughts on those three being the people that D has targeted? Week one?
Brandon Donlin
I think all the people that I've been talking about this week with, I think we were pretty in agreement that was not going to rock with Yash, different levels of energy and made sense to me. And then I think Mallory, too, is not somebody that I can see a world where they didn't gravitate to one another. Right. When we turned on the feeds, there was a conversation with Taylor, MD. Speaking about, I guess, the nominations, where it seemed like Dee was saying, I'm going to do what I can to make it not you. So I imagine that maybe Mallory is the target. Because even also in the same two frames, Angela is talking to Yash and Angela is giving Josh that pep talk of, you know, just be yourself and do whatever. Do whatever. So I think I'm locking in Mallory as the first weak target would be my guess.
Rob Cesternino
You can see it.
Chappelle
I can see it. I think it's a soft target, though. I think like, Mallory is Mallory who you should be going for. D. I haven't seen enough because they didn't turn the feeds on night one like they should. But I don't know. I think Mallory, if I had to look at who's more threatening, just off of what we've seen in the BIOS and a little bit of show we've watched, I'd probably say that Mallory's probably a bigger threat than Yash.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, it. If the week holds according to typical Big Brother, then tomorrow you would imagine we will have the veto. So we could see D maybe have to name a replacement. And then Monday is the veto ceremony and then we'll have on going into Thursday the first blockbuster. But it'll be fun to see on Sunday. Ultimately, like, you know, how did this come to be? We'll end that episode with nominations coming up on Sunday night.
Brandon Donlin
Yes. And we get to see what happens in the HOH competition. You could have won that.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, yada yada. The HOH competition. As far as I'm concerned,
Chappelle
they do Rick a bone. At least the fire making challenge. Don't lose another one, Rick. Oh, he did.
Narrator/Announcer
Yeah.
Chappelle
Damn. Damn.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Chappelle
Okay, go back in time and fix it.
Rob Cesternino
All right. Anything else? Any other observations from what we've seen on the feeds?
Chappelle
I believe we got our have nots as well. Chuck, Drew, Haley, Rick and Taylor are have nots if I'm not mistaken. Yeah. No food for them.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Chappelle
And cold showers and that awful bedroom, which I don't. Have we seen the have not room yet?
Brandon Donlin
It doesn't look. I'm seeing on Twitter a screenshot of what looks to be a have not room, but I can't tell what the theme is.
Chappelle
I can't wait. I love. I always love the. The cracked have not rooms. I remember those ridiculous like, well, I don't know where they were. Dental chairs that they did or like airline seats or something like that. Those are awful. I hate when it's. I think once he's. It was really, really cold in there too. But yeah, show me the have not room. It's the last room of the house that I care about. I don't care about the HOH room. At all, but the have not room need that.
Rob Cesternino
Okay, hold on. Sam has a screenshot. Is this the have not room?
Chappelle
Oh, wow.
Brandon Donlin
It's like a torture wheel, right?
Chappelle
That's.
Brandon Donlin
Or maybe not. I don't know.
Chappelle
That's what I'm. Betas and submissives.
Rob Cesternino
Okay.
Brandon Donlin
Yikes.
Rob Cesternino
All right, anything else from Big Brother tonight at this hour?
Brandon Donlin
I don't.
Chappelle
I don't think so. Not. Not at this hour, Rob. Yeah, look, we. We're counter programming the feeds, and so we thank everybody for coming here and joining us. I know we got. Y' all got. Y' all feeds on. Y' all, like, picture in picture kind of situation. Y' all got TV up for the feeds. You got the cameras over. You know, I know y' all are supporting us as well, but. Yeah, Rob, once the feeds get going, we're gonna have so much more to talk about. But I think we covered everything so far. Sure.
Rob Cesternino
Okay, well, let me tell you about what else is coming on. Unless, Brandon, you have anything else to talk about from these first couple nights of Big Brother.
Brandon Donlin
I only say that I do have my good friend here, who's also friend of D, that I could have. Poppy. Sure. Very quickly and say their thoughts. They want to. They want to scoot on over.
Rob Cesternino
It's now or never.
Brandon Donlin
I'm in somebody else's home, so I figured, why not? Why not? It's Kamu, everybody.
Rob Cesternino
Oh, yes. Yes. Here's Kelly. And if you're listening to the podcast.
Kelly
Let's not start that Rob. Okay. Okay. Live from my apartment, here we are. It's my first Big brother episode in 10 years.
Rob Cesternino
Yes. Kelly, how are you?
Kelly
I'm great. I'm already stressed and angry at the live feed, so.
Chappelle
Why.
Rob Cesternino
Why angry?
Kelly
Because Mallory is talking some crap about
Rob Cesternino
D. What did she say?
Kelly
She said that she said. Did she say, why are you acting like a baby? Didn't you win Survivor?
Brandon Donlin
Which is true.
Chappelle
Mallory. That's why you want me.
Kelly
She was chopping onions badly, D. Well, was she? Yeah. It was not the best chopping chop.
Brandon Donlin
I feel like she has. She feels like she has to volunteer, and then she just didn't. She didn't execute. What do you mean? She was.
Rob Cesternino
She was literally chopping onions.
Kelly
I'm talking literally chopping onions.
Rob Cesternino
And it made her cry.
Kelly
She was crying. Maybe that's why Mallory called her a baby. And then Mallory, the benefit of the doubt.
Chappelle
No, we don't have to do that. We're all in on being crazy people this summer. Kelly, you got. Are you gonna watch the Live feeds all summer. Are you really gonna track this?
Kelly
I don't know if I'm gonna be able to help myself. I think so. I just followed Hamster Watch. Or I requested to.
Rob Cesternino
Oh, sure.
Kelly
Good job. I'm locked in, baby. I haven't.
Rob Cesternino
You'll be allowed to. You'll be allowed. You'll be allowed to follow Hamster Watch.
Chappelle
Yeah, Hamster Watch lets you.
Kelly
You think he'll let me in?
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, he or she or they.
Chappelle
I don't know. She got you. Yeah, she.
Kelly
Oh, nice.
Chappelle
Nice.
Brandon Donlin
Women in stem. And that's what she is.
Kelly
We're gonna call D a hamster now.
Brandon Donlin
I get.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Brandon Donlin
How often do you get to have, like, a camera in your friend's house?
Kelly
It feels a little invasive. It's like I'm just, like, checking in on her. If I'm worried, I'm looking at her or I'm trying to.
Brandon Donlin
She is at this moment.
Chappelle
Don't let it addict you. You have to have some type of. You have to have some restraint when it comes to the feeds because there's going to. You are going to be tempted to sit up with her all night when. Especially when people start to talk about her. That's when you're gonna zoom in on that one room and you are going to be taking notes because one day in three months, she'll get out of the house and you gotta. You gotta catch her up.
Brandon Donlin
There is a shared notes app already with some grievances.
Kelly
Yeah. Anything that I want to send to Dee or that I would normally send to her, we have a co notes app.
Chappelle
Okay.
Kelly
So I'll have to put Mallory's name down swiftly.
Chappelle
Yeah. I'll be texting Brandon to put stuff on Yalls.
Kelly
Yeah. We're gonna include screenshots. This is gonna be very comprehensive timestamps.
Brandon Donlin
Oh, yeah.
Chappelle
Okay. Cool.
Rob Cesternino
Team D. Kelly, any feelings on Rick?
Kelly
Oh, you know, shocking. I'm. I can't believe we didn't know. They genuinely had no idea that they were going to be together. So I'm actually. I'm cautiously optimistic. I know Brandon said this already, but they do really like each other. But she did, like, she was, like, annoyed with him during Survivor 50 and I think when they were playing together too. So I think that's what. What Rick was alluding to. It wasn't just her pregame press. It's like they were not vibing the whole time. And she came back and was like. That was a mistake on my part.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. It seems like from my vantage point that when she was on the jury watching the other people. I think that she liked what Rick was doing as a. Jurors love Rick Devins. Like, when you are on the jury and watching Rick Devins, like, when you're in the game with Rick Devins, I think you think he's annoying. When you're on the jury and you're out of the game and you're watching Rick Devins annoy the other people that are in the game, I think you love Rick Devins.
Kelly
It's like watching live tv.
Rob Cesternino
Yes.
Kelly
You know, when you're.
Brandon Donlin
Dee really likes pranks.
Rob Cesternino
She does.
Brandon Donlin
She sends a lot of prank tick tocks. He really has her favorite.
Kelly
It's a really surprising trait about her. Like, she would, like, love a whoopee cushion in a genuine way.
Brandon Donlin
And D. I'm sorry. Rick is a big. He's a big prank guy. It feels like right up his alley to do pranks. Ranks. He would have loved. He would have loved James Hewlett.
Kelly
Oh, I watched that season.
Chappelle
That was the last time you were there.
Rob Cesternino
He does,
Chappelle
yeah.
Rob Cesternino
Okay.
Chappelle
Kelly, is there anybody in the house you could see D aligning with?
Kelly
Let's see. I. I feel like maybe Rome.
Rob Cesternino
I could see.
Kelly
I feel like he was googly eyeing her already a little bit.
Rob Cesternino
So there is a clip that I
Brandon Donlin
did just see on Twitter of him really eyeing her up as she was,
Kelly
I believe, cutting as she was chopping the onions. He was really locked in.
Rob Cesternino
He was behind, and he was behind
Kelly
her, so I don't know what he was looking at.
Brandon Donlin
I think it's a race for her number one alliance partner between Roman and Kamu. That's what I would put money on, which. We got to just see what happens.
Rob Cesternino
We got to just see what happens. Can I do that on couch? Can I put the money on which guy?
Kelly
Stress house.
Chappelle
Oh, we're gonna do a bet.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. Can I. Oh, when you say I can put money on it, can I go on Kalshi for Kamu or Rome for D?
Brandon Donlin
I think I would bet on wrong if I had to bet right now.
Rob Cesternino
I'm going common.
Chappelle
I'm going Kamu. I'm going Kamu.
Kelly
He was flirting. Rome was flirting with Lyric. I think so it could be a little love triangle.
Brandon Donlin
She's gonna have a confessional where she says her Roman Empire. I bet I. I'll put that on Couchy. That's my bet on Kali. Is that she says that. Yeah, It'll be one of the two for sure. But I'm excited to see where it goes.
Kelly
Yeah, I'm excited she's hoh. Honestly, we kind of were like, don't be hoh first. But I feel like Dee plays best from a position of power, you know?
Rob Cesternino
Yeah.
Kelly
On Survivor 45, she was in charge the whole time, and that worked out pretty well.
Chappelle
So not being hoh first is not a great thing like you have at this point. The way we play the big brother now, I think being hoh is first. Like, go ahead, lock these people in. Make them owe you something, you know, and then, you know, like, she said her target's already huge. It's not going to get any bigger if she's not.
Kelly
Yeah. That's so true.
Chappelle
Yeah.
Brandon Donlin
Not for anything. The conversation that we did have about the first HOH was the people who have had it recently. And I think Corey just tweeted this. Corey Wurttenberger. The people who have had it recently really bungle it in the past couple seasons. Like, Frenchie is out the next week. And then I forget who those couple people were, but I said, like, if you're going to do it, like, you just have to do it correctly. And nobody recently has done it.
Rob Cesternino
Frenchie had a bad one. The. The big brother 24. Who was it? Was there. Was that. Was it Paloma?
Chappelle
Was that.
Rob Cesternino
Was that the woman like that Taylor season? Yeah. Taylor season. Was it. Was she the hoh or was it Daniel Durston was the ho? I think Daniel Durston was the hoh, but that was like, he had his number one. But yeah, a lot of people, like, do it bad as first hoh.
Narrator/Announcer
Yeah.
Brandon Donlin
And if you like.
Kelly
So she'll do it good.
Brandon Donlin
If you size up who everybody's not vibing with or you have your own. If you talk to whatever person, like, there's no reason to bungle it. But the people who bungle it, I think are just too in their head, which I think she's proven to not do that.
Chappelle
Yeah. Okay.
Rob Cesternino
All right, let's see where we go from here. We got some big stuff coming up. We announced this week save the date for Rahabcon coming up, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, August 26th. To the 28th patrons. We said you had a save the date. They're gonna have the first access when the Rahabcon ticket tickets come out. But we've got a really fun event that we're planning at the end of the summer this Tuesday. Join Chappelle and I when we kick off the slop. And Sam, do we have a link for people to send in slow when they see slop happening? Is it robinswebs.com get sloppy.
Chappelle
Get sloppy.
Brandon Donlin
That's correct.
Rob Cesternino
Yes. Okay. There you go.
Chappelle
Thank you, Sam.
Rob Cesternino
Thank you, sir. Yeah. Could just say yes in the chat. Big brother right there. So robsbutz.com get sloppy. We talked with Dr. Christian HBicki earlier on tonight and he told us about what he's thinking about Rick Devins and some things that maybe he might have given to Rick Devins to help him prep for this season. So check out that podcast. Very fun one. And Taryn is going to have the first live feed update of the season on Saturday morning live at 11am Eastern. So that is some appointment podcasting there. I also got to talk about Love Island Wild podcast on Wednesday. Kelly, you don't watch Love island, do you?
Kelly
Not this season. However, I have avidly watched in the past as that is the Ponderosa pool I spent many hours in, so.
Rob Cesternino
Oh, for real.
Kelly
The same. It's the same. Come on, Robbie.
Rob Cesternino
I didn't know. This is news to me.
Kelly
The Survivor 43 and 45. 40. I guess 43 through 46 Ponderosa Hotel was knocked down and became the Love island villa.
Rob Cesternino
Wow.
Kelly
And that pool is the exact same. And the pier is the same. Drunk with Emily flipping on that pier.
Chappelle
Brandon, why are you saying we knew? I.
Kelly
Is it like pretty common knowledge? Guys, where you been?
Brandon Donlin
I was. I spent many hours crying in that pool after I was asked to leave the program.
Rob Cesternino
Okay. Wild podcast where we had people from Chili's at my house. Crazy times. Of course, course. Check out everything going on Big Brother over on chat BCC. Go to robinswebs.com VIP chat for that. Okay. All right. Well, Kelly and Brandon, thank you for spending Friday night talking about some Big Brother.
Kelly
Yeah. Well, I'm gonna be watching the live beats.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, you're in.
Chappelle
Yeah.
Kelly
This is my life now.
Rob Cesternino
Yes.
Brandon Donlin
We're looking right now at a big group if everybody's in the same place. It's not good feeds, I don't think. And everybody seems to be sitting in the backyard.
Chappelle
So it should just be wait until night time. Yeah, it's early.
Kelly
Oh, really?
Chappelle
When it goes down.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah, yeah. So perfect.
Kelly
So 3am awesome.
Chappelle
We'll be up.
Rob Cesternino
Yes.
Brandon Donlin
Thank you for having us.
Kelly
Thanks for having us.
Rob Cesternino
Rob Chappelle, of course. You are gonna be unlocked with unlocked the rest of the way.
Chappelle
Yeah, yeah. This is. This is my show now. Chappelle unlocked. Get into it. Yeah, no, I'm the Jerry OConnell. I have now shown up. I'm going to be a permanent member on this panel. But we don't know who's going to be joining me in the future for unlock. Just know that I will be here when unlocked is unlocking and hopefully the chat is here too and we can talk about all kinds of things in preparation for the slop coming up. So I think it's a, it's a
Rob Cesternino
good conjunction, you know, good conjunction. And we gave Chappelle the keys. He said, who do you want? You want to like, you want us to book guests? You want a panel? What do you want to do? So all that. Yeah, we'll find out. Okay.
Chappelle
Yeah, get three on the phone now.
Rob Cesternino
Okay.
Chappelle
I mean, unless you're going to do it.
Kelly
We'll see.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. I don't know if she knows she wants to even talk about Big Brother. Maybe for you she would.
Chappelle
Don't say that because I can't.
Rob Cesternino
Don't do that.
Chappelle
Don't do. Stop it. I got to turn the camera off. Don't do that.
Rob Cesternino
Yeah. Okay. All right. And then of course check out Chappelle on Y X Lost all season long. We had a call on the, on the Q A today. People said I love Chappelle as the co host of Y X Loss. They said he's going to put David Bloomberg in his place.
Chappelle
It'd be really hard to put David Bloomberg in his place. No, I'm just happy that David's willing to have me because normally his guest or his co host, they played these games so they actually have some type of insight. I just like to talk my trash. And so I'm going to be there with David making YX Loss a little sloppier.
Rob Cesternino
Okay. All right, so be sure to check that out. Also have, Speaking of Survivor 50, one of my Survivor 50 interviews is gonna be dropping this weekend, so be on the lookout for that as well.

Special Guest: Kelly (Kamu)
Big Brother 28 Premiere & Live Feed Launch Breakdown
This episode marks the launch of Big Brother 28 with a focus on the season’s live feeds finally being turned on. The RHAP panelists—Rob, Chappelle (taking over Friday coverage), and Brandon Donlin—delve into all the action and surprises from the “Big Brother Unlocked” season premiere, particularly the reveal of Dee Valladares (Survivor 45 winner) as the mystery houseguest. The crew also welcomes Kelly (Kamu) for a live feed reactions segment, discusses the fresh format of Unlocked, the opening HOH, nominations, houseguest dynamics, and initial live feed spoilers.
"I'm excited because the live feeds are on. We finally got it. Thank you, Andy the intern, for making that happen." — Chappelle (02:43)
"There are not a lot of people in the world that can lock in the way that Dee locks in." — Brandon (08:46)
"Would you say it's like they're at some kind of, like, podcast nightclub where people are at bistro tables watching?" — Rob (10:34)
"The rules in Big Brother, you're not supposed to know anybody." — Chappelle (13:26) "This is an interesting situation with Rick and Dee. They are not on the same page." — Rob (15:57)
"To murder Rachel Riley in the Big Brother house is actually sacrilegious. And, Julie, you need your—You need to go to jail." — Chappelle (21:07)
"We have on the block... Mallory, Yash, and Taylor are on the block." — Rob (49:23)
"Nobody's ever done this before... She invented this. It's called the Ashley method." — Chappelle & Brandon (34:33–34:36)
"You have to have some restraint when it comes to the feeds because... you are going to be tempted to sit up with her all night when... people start to talk about her." — Chappelle (56:12)
"I've been waiting all week. Hell, all year to sit around and watch these people eat cereal." (05:09)
"I'm not liking it. I saw Becca Devins's Instagram story this morning, and she just, she looked so tired. It's only been 48 hours." (07:45)
"Julie, she—she really took the whole thing pretty well. She was not affected." (21:07)
"Remember in the old days, you know, Big Brother would come to your grandma's house and interview her about the show... They need to do more stuff like that." (12:49)
The episode maintains RHAP’s trademark humor and community feel:
This episode serves as both a Big Brother 28 premiere recap and primer for the weeks ahead, combining sharp, funny commentary on new format changes, a breakdown of the Dee and Rick twist, thoughts on early live feed teases, and a collection of standout moments. RHAP’s panel sets a high-energy, fan-centric tone for the season, mapping out initial game dynamics, house quirks, and rooting interests—especially for Dee, whose presence as a crossover Survivor winner creates instant buzz, uncertainty, and drama in the BB28 house.
For more live coverage and daily feed updates, listeners are encouraged to check out Taran’s upcoming reports and return for future Friday night "Unlocked" episodes with Chappelle and guests.
