1:56
You don't wake up dreaming of
1:58
McDonald's fries? You
2:01
wake
2:03
up
2:05
dreaming
2:07
of
2:10
McDonald's
2:12
hash
2:15
browns.
2:19
McDonald's
2:22
breakfast
2:25
comes first. where we take
2:28
over up in Adams podcast
2:30
to talk about our favorite
2:33
show below deck. And in
2:35
this instance, it's below deck
2:38
down under. We are on
2:40
season three and this season
2:42
is honestly great guys.
2:45
It's consistent. It's fun.
2:47
We've had a lot
2:49
of like chaotic incidences.
2:51
Some embarrassing moments, some
2:53
cringe feel or cringe
2:55
filled romances that just
2:58
continues. So Good job production. This
3:00
is a great season. Um,
3:02
guys, welcome back. Okay, so
3:04
if you haven't been following
3:06
along with Anchor Watch, uh,
3:08
when we've been talking about
3:10
below deck down under, then you
3:13
gotta go check it out. If you
3:15
have been following along, you will
3:17
know that Vahan is in a
3:19
complete freaking free fall. And not
3:22
like a graceful free fall. This
3:24
guy is just... slowly deteriorating in
3:26
front of our eyes. All right?
3:29
So the guy, this Bo-sen, who
3:31
started this season so gung-ho
3:33
that he's gonna be best
3:36
friends with Captain Jason by
3:38
the end of the season, is just
3:40
capsizing in front of
3:42
us. I wanna use that word
3:45
because we just had a jet
3:47
ski capsize in the middle of
3:49
the ocean while he was too
3:51
busy contemplating his boat mances and...
3:53
what girl he's gonna talk to
3:56
and you know we we just have
3:58
so much this episode from the
4:00
jet ski drama to weird love
4:03
triangles that keep going in these
4:05
weird directions. Very very questionable management
4:07
skills from the Han himself and
4:10
of course we have Captain Jason
4:12
in a row. So let's jump
4:14
right into this episode. All right
4:17
guys so we kick off this
4:19
episode with last week's jet ski
4:21
disaster. So just a little recap
4:24
if you don't remember. Vahan ignored,
4:26
literally everybody's warnings about sending out
4:28
this jet ski that wasn't properly
4:31
drained. So if a jet ski
4:33
isn't drained and it's full of
4:35
water, it is going to sink.
4:38
So surprise, surprise, that's what happens.
4:40
The the guests are out on
4:42
kind of a playday, out on
4:45
the on the water, using the
4:47
toys, kind of having a wreck
4:49
day, and Johnny is on a
4:52
jet ski with one of the
4:54
guests. coincidentally happens to be our
4:56
non-swimming guest, and is thrown overboard
4:59
by the jet ski because it
5:01
is actually sinking. If water is
5:03
inside the jet ski, how is
5:06
it going to float? This is
5:08
just crazy. Now, before anybody panics,
5:10
India, who is our guest who
5:12
can't swim, is totally fine. And
5:15
last week, I was talking about
5:17
how I think... production is kind
5:19
of fooling us a little bit
5:22
giving us that cliffhanger but in
5:24
reality it's not that big of
5:26
a deal and thank goodness it
5:29
did not turn out to be
5:31
that big of a deal but
5:33
Johnny takes care of everything super
5:36
calm gets India calm and Vahan
5:38
is the one freaking out which
5:40
is just really ironic it's it's
5:43
crazy meanwhile Vahan he's like Completely
5:45
oblivious to the fact that a
5:47
$20,000 piece of equipment is slowly
5:50
sinking. And when he finally reacts,
5:52
it's basically, oh yeah, my... Maybe
5:54
we shouldn't have put the jet
5:57
ski in. Dude, come on. Now,
5:59
we have to take a second
6:01
and talk about how expensive of
6:04
a mistake this was. Because a
6:06
jet ski can cost literally from
6:08
anywhere from 10 to $20,000. And
6:11
that's just a base model. You
6:13
know, if you want to add
6:15
all the luxury yacht modifications, I'm
6:18
sure they have plenty, you know,
6:20
signage. Things that make it very
6:22
specific, you're talking to Chiching, all
6:25
right? You're talking big money, way
6:27
more than 20 grand. And in
6:29
the world of Super Yachts, every
6:32
mistake basically costs someone's salary. So
6:34
let's just hope that Captain Jason
6:36
has enough patience to keep up
6:39
with this guy, because right now
6:41
it's not looking good. All right,
6:43
let's jump over to the never
6:46
ending chaos between the stews. We
6:48
have Serena in the galley who
6:50
literally is whipping up great food.
6:53
I mean, yes, are we seeing
6:55
a lot of curry again and
6:57
again and again? Yes, but at
7:00
this point, the guests are happy.
7:02
So that's what matters. I mean,
7:04
I don't know if I was
7:07
paying six figures to go in
7:09
a luxury yacht if I would
7:11
want the same meal every night,
7:14
serve different ways, but if the
7:16
guests are happy, that is exactly
7:18
what counts. And... I can tell
7:21
you the one thing that the
7:23
guests were not into this episode,
7:25
and that was the complete chaos
7:27
of dinner service. Marina, who I
7:30
go back and forth on right
7:32
now, I don't know where I
7:34
really sit with Marina, I don't
7:37
know how you guys feel, but
7:39
she's basically right now holding the
7:41
interior team together, you know, barely,
7:44
because when she's going to turn
7:46
down the cabins at night, Adair,
7:48
who comes down to help Marina,
7:51
she turns down the bed. or
7:53
a couple of beds, and then
7:55
she just disappears. I mean, girl,
7:58
you did the bare minimum. So,
8:00
like, even Vahan is shocked. That's
8:02
saying something. Vahan is shocked that
8:05
all she did was make the
8:07
beds. It's kind of crazy. Now,
8:09
fun fact, on superyots, stews are
8:12
expected to turn down cabins in
8:14
about 20 to 30 minutes. That
8:16
means everything from making the bed,
8:19
cleaning the bathroom, getting some fresh
8:21
towels, and doing kind of a
8:23
quick refresh. So you know, when
8:26
you come back into your room
8:28
after dinner, your beds turned down,
8:30
things are properly put away. It
8:33
just kind of blows my mind
8:35
that every season of below deck
8:37
you have one or two stews
8:40
or deck hands or mixed positions
8:42
that that don't want to do
8:44
the work or are like no
8:47
that's too much for me. You
8:49
are on a yacht. You were
8:51
hired to do this. You should
8:54
know those expectations. So the minute
8:56
Adair says I don't do bathrooms
8:58
and how's that moment, let's just
9:01
say if Kate Chastain we're here.
9:03
She would be sent packing right
9:05
now walking to plank But that
9:08
is the truth All right, let's
9:10
talk about the captain's lounge and
9:12
the little adventure that our guest
9:15
got on their final night of
9:17
their charter Captain Jason is in
9:19
nothing but a robe and he
9:22
introduces the guest to kind of
9:24
this private yacht club experience and
9:26
that's kind of fun because Normally
9:29
we don't have so much space
9:31
on these yachts on below deck
9:33
where there's another private area or
9:35
a whole other lounge or a
9:38
whole different place. And here we
9:40
have one, which is kind of
9:42
fun. And of course, this is
9:45
below deck, so things are going
9:47
to take a turn for the
9:49
best or the worst, depending how
9:52
you look on it, or how
9:54
you look at it. Because Lara
9:56
has convinced Vahan that he should
9:59
be a makeshift stripper for the
10:01
night. I don't know what was
10:03
more uncomfortable of the Huns half-hearted
10:06
like lap dance or the fact
10:08
that marina is still clinging to
10:10
the idea that they had a
10:13
romantic date. And even though he's
10:15
been ignoring her for days, she's
10:17
still interested. It's crazy to me.
10:20
And then, Serena, who I left
10:22
off with on last, the last
10:24
episode that we recapped, I said,
10:27
Serena deserves better, but she is
10:29
still fully enthralled with Vahan. Like...
10:31
Like it's her last night on
10:34
earth she has to have this
10:36
guy and she did this with
10:38
culver before you know last season
10:41
on below deck town under and
10:43
I just hope that she veers
10:45
left and exits stage right get
10:48
out just get away from this
10:50
guy because it will be the
10:52
free fall of her too but
10:55
to be honest watching this moment
10:57
was just funny there were so
10:59
many awkward pauses and misplaced emotions
11:02
and kind of a love triangle
11:04
that no one, no one really
11:06
asked for, to be honest. And
11:09
we gotta talk about some of
11:11
these boatmances, because it's just funny.
11:13
It's just funny. So, Vihan, dude,
11:16
you cannot just make out with
11:18
Serena one night, and then tell
11:20
her you love Adair the next.
11:23
It's like, if you put it
11:25
into a guest perspective, it's like
11:27
ordering surf and turf, sending it
11:30
back. and then suddenly realize that
11:32
you might want that. You know,
11:34
the best part of this though
11:37
is that Adair is just oblivious,
11:39
completely. She doesn't know that Vihan
11:41
likes her. She doesn't know that
11:44
all of this love triangle situation
11:46
is going on. She's just oblivious.
11:48
And every single person on the
11:50
yacht knows Vihan is obsessed with
11:53
Adair, except Adair. Which makes it
11:55
so funny. And I have to
11:57
say. To that Harry is just
12:00
killing me this season because I
12:02
don't know if you guys remember
12:04
last time I said Harry has
12:07
been bravoed. So what I mean
12:09
by bravoed is he drives storylines.
12:11
So every episode you see Harry
12:14
kind of like get into a
12:16
little mess. So let me give
12:18
you an example about Harry being
12:21
bravoed. Because once you learn the
12:23
bravo way, you really kind of
12:25
climb into a different echelon of
12:28
bravo. or like Hannah Ferrier. You
12:30
know, they know how to drive
12:32
storylines. They know how to make
12:35
it interesting and to keep it
12:37
going. So here's the example. Harry
12:39
telling Vahan that he's in the
12:42
dog house because he hasn't talked
12:44
to Marina in three days is
12:46
exactly what I mean. Driving the
12:49
story. I love it, Harry. I
12:51
don't know what's happening here. Because
12:53
this was kind of the boatman's
12:56
that... Kind of took an unexpected
12:58
turn and you thought oh shit
13:00
Harry and Brie could be a
13:03
thing and it could be nice
13:05
and cute, but Brie wants him
13:07
to step up Take some initiative
13:10
maybe send a flirty text or
13:12
do anything romantic, but Harry come
13:14
on. What are you doing? You
13:17
know? No effort no effort from
13:19
Harry and you would think now
13:21
he has this opportunity this great
13:24
girl in front of him. So
13:26
I hope he steps it up
13:28
because this is the boatman's that
13:31
I would actually like to see
13:33
because I don't see any other
13:35
boatman's on this boat going the
13:38
right way. All right guys, so
13:40
we're going to take a minute
13:42

14:47
it out. So cut to the
14:50
crew night out, we have a
14:52
new addition to our crew. And
14:54
that is none other than our
14:57
new shoe stuff. Wow, I just
14:59
said that completely backwards. Our new
15:01
sushi chef, Alicia. Alicia is kind
15:04
of cool. My first impression of
15:06
her is she's fun. She completely
15:08
vibes with the crew. She did
15:11
think the Seychelles was in Jamaica,
15:13
so not a great start to,
15:15
you know, geography here, but at
15:18
least she knows her way around
15:20
the kitchen, which is more than
15:22
I can say for... Some people
15:25
I'm so glad we got rid
15:27
of that old Sioux chef. The
15:29
energy is just so much better.
15:32
That was so draining those first
15:34
two episodes so draining It's nice
15:36
also to have two ladies in
15:39
the kitchen. This is a first.
15:41
We've had you know We've always
15:43
had a female chef on below
15:46
deck You know from Rachel and
15:48
Serena and and the name of
15:50
the one from below deck med
15:53
is I'm forgetting, you know,
15:55
she was fired, so maybe that's
15:57
why I forgot. But it's nice
15:59
to see two ladies in the
16:01
kitchen. And Alicia states that she
16:03
just wants to make Serena proud.
16:05
So let's see how this goes,
16:08
because I have good vibes for
16:10
the kitchen. And maybe Serena's drama
16:12
in the kitchen is over for
16:14
the rest of the season and
16:16
will be paying attention to something
16:18
else. Like maybe Alicia and Johnny
16:20
getting together. Who knows? Johnny? God,
16:22
this guy is so funny, because
16:25
he's just like a mixed bag
16:27
of emotions. But Johnny... What
16:30
do we say about Johnny here?
16:32
He tries to kiss Alicia. Like,
16:34
what? Like, I just feel like
16:36
this might be a slow-burned boat
16:39
mance in the making, and we
16:41
don't need that. Meanwhile, Vahan is
16:43
making out with Serena, before deciding
16:45
dramatically that he just can't. He
16:48
just can't. I need to go
16:50
to bed. Dude, you gotta pick
16:52
a lane, Vahan. I mean, here
16:54
we are. Six episodes
16:56
in, Vahan is still in a complete
16:59
disastrous mess of Boatman's drama. This guy
17:01
can't even focus on his job, let
17:03
alone one girl. It's absolutely insane. So
17:06
here's kind of what we have going
17:08
on, all right? My final thoughts on
17:10
this episode are, just to quickly sum
17:12
it up, Vahan is still a mess,
17:15
and that is professionally and that is
17:17
romantically. for sure. And I said it
17:19
before, and I'm going to say it
17:22
again, Serena deserves better. She just deserves
17:24
a little better, you know. And Brie
17:26
and Harry, they need to communicate because
17:28
we need to see a good boat
17:31
meds. We need to see something work
17:33
out. You know, you had that great
17:35
boatmance years ago with, was it Adam
17:38
and Asia? Was his name Adam, I
17:40
think so, from below deck med. They
17:42
had a great boatman. Yeah, it didn't
17:44
last like when they went off the
17:47
boat off the boat, but... It was
17:49
nice to watch. It was good. Then
17:51
we have Captain Jason who just... This
17:54
remains the MVP of the season as
17:56
he will probably the entire season, but
17:58
Captain Jason's management style and the way
18:00
he runs a boat are just, it
18:03
just makes it so easy to watch.
18:05
You know, he puts his fist down
18:07
when he needs to, but otherwise he
18:10
does let the crew do what they
18:12
need to do. And I think his
18:14
style of management might be my favorite
18:17
out of every captain that we have
18:19
seen on below duck so far. I
18:21
really, really do. I do. So next
18:23
week, we have a new charter. We
18:26
have a new charter. more chaos probably
18:28
another case of I didn't sign up
18:30
for this I don't know if that
18:33
will be coming from Alicia but stay
18:35
