You know who you are!

No doubt we all ask, “and what is that?” after hearing the word “serpentine.” But what are the others?

Eg: I can’t see the name Nicole without reading it “Nicole!”

For starters, I am lying. I have one friend that also loves the band. But I am constantly surprised by how many people I talk to don’t enjoy my favorite band.

Is this something unique to my universe (I grew up in Florida) or something that is wide spread?

I was all prepared to hop on here and make a post about how dumb Corey is, as him choosing the best opponent for Nelly T is going to result in a mutiny very quickly.

But then again, maybe he had to. Nelly did take that L against Rogan for him. That’s a complicated history.

What an absolute all-time episode for Miss Cara Maria! Starting with a challenge where she is unable to swim 10 feet below the surface because “she doesn’t know how to dive”. Hey, it’s not like swimming challenges are a staple of the show that she’s been doing for over 20 years. And, we should probably cut her a break since she just learned how to vote two years ago. Maybe swimming is next on the to-do list?

But to get pressed on her performance by Josh, and immediately break down into tears, trying to manipulate him by talking about her mother dying three years ago, was absolutely pathetic. She is so trash. Sydney isn’t even that great and swims laps around CM in everything.

Just saw something about the anniversary of Kenan & Kel and was thinking, damn Kenan ended up (seemingly) doing so much better in life.

But you also have Scottie Pippen, Arsenio Hall, Martin Lawrence (Bad Boys?), etc.

Is there enough to make a draft out of this?

On today’s podcast, Katie claims that if she put out an album, it would be terrible and she would expect everyone to make fun of her for it.

But anyone that heard her ad reads on Sports?, or the Disney song draft on AFE, knows Katie has a great voice! I’m betting that if she made an album, it would be fantastic!

After rewatching an XL for the 5th time, I noticed that despite being in a foreign country, the post-extraction meal usually consists of incredibly looking American classics. Which would seem to be rare abroad.

Anyone know the back story of the chefs they use? Do they fly out some fire American chefs or something like that?

We’re 3 episodes in and there isn’t a single storyline I care about. It’s sad how watered down that part of the show has become due to media consciousness, promotion of personal brand, and mainly, alcohol restrictions.

There have been so many gator attacks in Florida this year. The more N&A I watch, the more I think people lose their fear of these animals because of the show.

These guys are constantly swimming across gator/croc filled rivers, with things electric else and anacondas to boot. But NOTHING EVER happens. They always make the most dangerous swim, or build a docking neck high water, and NOTHING happens.

My guess, this is because there are 50 safety/crew members doing whatever they do behind the scenes. And folks think, “well, nothing happened to them.”

I don’t know how else to explain it.

EJ is on the Mount Rushmore for most N&A viewers. But every time I watch Season 8 of XL, I get more and more pissed off about the bad decision by tap-out-Tim, to bring a fucking blow gun over a more practical tool.

This was an epic season for EJ, and likely his last. Yet I can’t stop thinking about him with that stupid blow gun, trying to get a magical kill. His legacy deserves so much better than that.

If there was a Naked and Afraid Cafe, where they served game, fruits, whatever they found/killed on the show: what would be your top choices?
