Well, hello and welcome to Watch What Crappens. I'm Ronnie. That's Ben over there. Hello, Ben. Hi, Ronnie. How's it going? Well, so great. Thank you for asking. Everybody, welcome to the show. Today is Below Deck Day. It's very exciting over here, guys. We have to make a choice. The season is almost over. How have we gone so long without a lead deckhand?

0

52.613 - 56.717 Ben Mandelker

Oh, my goodness. Who will get the ceremonial title that means nothing at all?

0

57.001 - 58.523 Kizzy

Who is running this country?

60.106 - 80.617 Ronnie Karam

So we're going to figure that out today. And every Monday now we do Amazon Live at 4 p.m. Pacific time. That's a super good time if you just want to come see us act like idiots on Amazon Live. That's always fun. And we can talk to you and take your questions, etc. Every other Monday, this coming Monday included, we are going to be doing crappy hour. So join us for that.

80.657 - 107.236 Ronnie Karam

That's our live show where we talk to you guys about Bravo headlines, etc., And this week will be our last for the season, for the year. And guess what? This week is our 600th bonus episode, which is insane. That's insanity and inanity. That's 600 weeks that we've been doing bonus episodes, Ben.

107.296 - 131.243 Ben Mandelker

How do you feel about that? 600 weeks, 600 divided by 52. I mean, well, we've been doing bonus episodes since we've been on Patreon, which is about 2014. So, whoa. I mean, if you think about it, 52 weeks in a year, that's over 10 years of bonus episodes, which you also could do without the math just by looking at the fact that we started in 2014. But yeah, that's crazy.

131.303 - 132.064 Ben Mandelker

Successful bonus episodes.

Chapter 2: Who will Nathan choose as the lead deckhand?

161.078 - 177.604 Ronnie Karam

And that's it. That's all we have to talk about today. Oh, we are recording a Christmas movie with Reality Gaze. That is going to be My Secret Santa. Super classy movie on Netflix. So check that out. That'll be Christmas is when that comes out. Okay, so what do you want to talk about today, man?

0

177.624 - 182.612 Ben Mandelker

Below Deck would be a great thing to talk about. I'm very excited to chat about it.

0

182.873 - 184.275 Ronnie Karam

Don't threaten me with a good time.

0

185.183 - 202.951 Ben Mandelker

Yeah, yeah, we've got more adventure happening here. Adventure! But in the Mediterranean. So Kizzy is, we start off Kizzy is still feeling like she's got all the boys wrapped on a finger in a string or whatever.

0

203.813 - 215.562 Ronnie Karam

Anywho. She used to. She says, I used to have all the boys wrapped around my... Yes, I remember that. Wrapped like a string around my finger. And now I feel like my only option is Nathan. And I don't want him. I just want to snog.

216.318 - 238.874 Ben Mandelker

Oh, poor Kizzy. So it's the morning of the next charter. Okay, everyone's waking up. Max is very enthusiastic. He's like, let's rock this day to Josh, which is nice that someone's talking to Josh and acknowledging that he exists. And V and Joe are like lying in bed together. And V is like... Do you still want to see me after? And he's like, yes.

239.314 - 249.249 Ben Mandelker

And she's like, but what about the expiration date? He's like, well, it expired already. Sorry, I can't control myself. And then he starts kissing on her. I'm all in with you. I'm all in.

249.569 - 273.462 Ronnie Karam

You're all I think about day and night. I've never felt like this. I'm all in with you. It was reported to me. I did not watch, but apparently he was on Watch What Happens and was talking about this relationship and and was like, well, you know, I told her I didn't, you know, I told her what I was capable of and she just kept trying to reel me in. Oh, she kept on trying to reel you in.

273.482 - 278.347 Ronnie Karam

Weren't you the one who was courting her? Didn't see that one coming, Joe. You fucking douchebag.

Chapter 3: What drama unfolds with Kizzy and the charter guest?

528.263 - 536.352 Ronnie Karam

I just remember those stories you used to tell about living in a van with him and pooping in buckets. God, that's romance right there. We're talking about Willard Scott, right?

0

536.793 - 538.115 Kizzy

No, I don't know who that is.

0

538.135 - 545.766 Ronnie Karam

I just always wanted Willard Scott to congratulate me on becoming 100. Well, I guess that dream's dead.

0

547.108 - 552.977 Ben Mandelker

You know, it'd be nice someday to see my face on a smucker's bottle, but I guess we'll just have to wait.

0

554.797 - 574.527 Ronnie Karam

So now Josh is groaning as he gets up. It's like sad clown horn. And then we go to V and she farts in a song. I really love the editing for V this year. It's just really kicking her in the ass. V farts? She farted? Yeah, you didn't hear it? She was like...

575.35 - 578.037 Ben Mandelker

Oh, I thought that was Asha who was farting.

578.057 - 591.79 Ronnie Karam

I don't know. You never know on this show. Maybe we got it confused in the notes. Who knows? Oh, okay. So then Max brings Kathy a very needy mug on the deck. And it's like, hello, what's wrong? And he's like,

591.77 - 613.996 Max

Oh, I need this detachment since this is the first conversation we've had, you and me. It's like, is this enough? Is it not enough? Am I being too much? I don't know. Maybe I'm too much. Maybe I'm too little. Am I too little or too much? I'm sitting on your lap. This is okay. I'm moving into your house. Picture me with luggage moving to your house. Mama, please don't leave me.

614.056 - 624.864 Ben Mandelker

Please, please stand back. Go, please. Please, it's too early and I'm too British for this. Please go away. Thank you so much. Can't deal with this at all.

Chapter 4: How does the crew prepare for the upcoming charter?

800.591 - 820.759 Ronnie Karam

Like, this is water. We're on the water. And then Kizzy is carrying two giant bags of guess what? Provisions, which we just complained last week about not seeing provisions. And here they are. So there you go. And Nathan has a bouquet of flowers. And he's like, well, I couldn't just hand you flowers. And she says, oh, my God, I genuinely don't even like you.

0

820.919 - 826.747 Ronnie Karam

And he says, yeah, the feeling's mutual. I only like you when I'm drunk. And she gives him the double fingers. But.

0

829.21 - 846.535 Ben Mandelker

Yeah, but it's true. So Asha. Oh, here's where Asha was farting. I apologize. So I assume then that V did fart in her. Are we sure? Didn't she farted or she may have just been blowing her nose. It's hard to know what sort of AR came out of her butt. Well, we're blowing her nose out of her butt.

0

846.987 - 849.332 Unknown

But yeah, blowing her nose out of her butt.

0

849.472 - 873.548 Ben Mandelker

All of the same. But now here's Asha actually farting as well in the galley. So other people hear the farts and they react to the farts and they move on from the fart. And now Joe and Max are on deck and they're talking about how they really work together so well. And Joe's like, we work well as a team. And Max is like, oh, yeah, I work fucking hard. I mean, you saw it for the first chapter.

873.848 - 888.402 Ben Mandelker

It was only me and him. So I know he knows like what my value is. But I think that like you're better because, bro, you go like more and more into like the finishing, bro. When I see you like this, you're like this, you're working. And I'm like, OK, OK, it's working. It's like so much. It's like it's like a lot of work. Yeah, it's like.

889.833 - 910.693 Ronnie Karam

Because we just saw Joe on hands and knees with his butt sticking way up. Like he was really like spreading his cheeks to do it. So he's like, wow, I think you win with this. And Joe's like, well, we're going to get money, good times. And after this, we're going to fucking send it. What do you think about that?

912.344 - 928.782 Ben Mandelker

Yes. Like son of Zod. I'm like, I don't know what that means. So now it's time for the preference sheet meeting. Everyone gets, you know, it's funny that we call it preference sheet because it's not a tablet. Should we call it preference tablet? I don't know. And if I had a preference tablet, probably be Advil. God, it's such a good pain reliever. Okay.

928.982 - 937.351 Ben Mandelker

We are doing the interior exterior preference sheet meeting now, everyone. So let's hear what everyone wants. Okay. Charter six. Okay.

Chapter 5: What challenges does V face during the episode?

937.391 - 939.533 Ben Mandelker

Aisha, do you have anything to say about this?

0

939.513 - 953.843 Kizzy

It's going to be so exciting. Son of Zod is from Superman. Ew, I thought Zod sounded like a Superman reference, but I couldn't be sure.

0

954.423 - 969.804 Aisha

This is going to be the most fun charter. So Cameron is a former football player who's now in commercial real estate. He wants to treat his friends to a once-in-a-lifetime treat.

0

969.984 - 971.646 Ronnie Karam

Look, okay, you can calm down.

0

973.972 - 987.002 Kizzy

Commercial real estate is the most exciting thing I've heard in ages. Have fun, commercial real estate. He's an escrow.

987.37 - 995.04 Ben Mandelker

So, uh, Benjamin. Benjamin is Cameron's childhood best friend, and he oversees all of Cameron's business projects. That's fun.

995.401 - 1001.75 Kizzy

And, oh, and David. David's the youngest of the group. Kizzy, do you have a lady burner yet?

1002.29 - 1004.533 Ronnie Karam

Kizzy's like, David is fat.

1004.794 - 1013.105 Aisha

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, he's a professional fighter who's traveled the world competing in mixed martial arts.

Chapter 6: How does Nathan manage crew dynamics and responsibilities?

1085.241 - 1088.225 Ben Mandelker

But then to read now that he was the sommelier, I'm like, what?

0

1089.306 - 1094.894 Ronnie Karam

That's pretty crazy to travel with your sommelier. The wine tasting?

0

1095.515 - 1095.795 Unknown

Yeah.

0

1095.775 - 1100.901 Ronnie Karam

So they've also got a freestyle battle rapper who toured with Lil Wayne.

0

1101.181 - 1101.521

Okay.

1101.922 - 1118.34 Ronnie Karam

So it's a big one. It's a big one, guys. So just like the guests are excited to be in Barcelona during the America's Cup. And we're hoping that they'll get a chance to watch the race from the yacht during the trip. I've never done that before with a woman. Never done it. But I shall today. I'm a changed man.

1120.126 - 1139.807 Ben Mandelker

And at the mere mention of America's Cup, oh my God, the America's Cup is an incredible race that happens every four years. I mean, it's the equivalent to the World Cup of soccer, but it's in America. As with a cup, you know what they also, have you ever heard of Norma's Cup? It's basically the same thing as the America's Cup, except it's basically a 32-ounce big gulp from 7-Eleven.

1140.127 - 1143.771 Ben Mandelker

Anyway, also very exciting. God, I can't wait to see it.

1143.751 - 1163.447 Unknown

this is a big deal it's time for a commercial it's time for a crappin's commercial so um asia's like full for night one they want to have a night of espino

Chapter 7: What happens during the America's Cup sailing event?

1366.726 - 1368.148 Ben Mandelker

Yeah. Or have a baby.

0

1368.529 - 1384.914 Ronnie Karam

The worst day of being a waiter, Valentine's Day. By far. It is disgusting. And even, I mean, I know not everybody's happy who's there on a Valentine's date, but they're pretending to be. And it's just gross to watch. Like, I don't want to watch you rubbing each other's ears over your shittily cooked steak. It's just gross.

0

1385.896 - 1386.737 Ben Mandelker

Just the worst.

0

1386.717 - 1410.835 Ben Mandelker

yeah so uh joe was like last night me and victoria have just done a level up in our friendship um or relationship noticed and he's also doing that thing where he's calling her victoria because that's how that's how sincere he is but i'm so scared of things evolving at a very rapid pace but i'm genuinely interested in her well-being like is she okay does she need someone to talk to can i be there to help

0

1410.815 - 1420.508 Ben Mandelker

And support. You're the one who said, I want to see you after this charter season's done. But you're still going to put it on her that things are going too fast for you. I've had enough of this.

1421.149 - 1449.702 Ronnie Karam

Yeah. That said, I also don't like her using the boyfriend's death as some flirt. How am I trying to say it? Like, okay, will we make it past this part? I hope you're ready for me to deal with my boyfriend's death on the anniversary of his death. It just seems like such a, it's like, can we go to a movie first? You know what I mean? Like, yeah, I just met you. So yeah, he does that.

1449.742 - 1468.818 Ronnie Karam

So then they do flirty and then they're flirty making jokes about like tying each other up with ropes. And then Nathan calls for a meeting and he's like, we're going to have a quick meeting tonight. I had a chat with Captain Sandy, and she wanted me to appoint a lead deckhand. And Joe's like, oh, I've been open to the possibility. Ah, but I didn't know if I could do it. But now I'm all in.

1469.219 - 1475.415 Ronnie Karam

I'm all in. I'm all in with Nathan. I love Nathan. I'm going to marry Nathan. Never thought I'd get to this point, but here I am.

1477.049 - 1498.264 Ben Mandelker

This is something new for me. So Max is like, I deserve the lead deckhand position because like when you wanted to sleep and you had food poisoning, I was ready to take responsibility over my shoulder, okay? Because I'm a fighter. I'm a French. I will never surrender myself. I will fight until the end, you know? Okay.

Chapter 8: What are the guests' reactions to the food and service?

1642.043 - 1643.946 Ben Mandelker

But I think he's overall pretty good with it.

0

1643.926 - 1655.337 Max

Cut to Max just meditating in his room like, I am the leader of the leader of the deck of my own boat. Oh, mother.

0

1656.515 - 1657.016 Kizzy

Mother.

0

1661.28 - 1679.24 Ronnie Karam

So he's broken out of his reverie to go take luggage. We see the boat tour, all that good stuff. The guys are playing around with weights in the gym. They're like, yeah, look at that. These weights are so small for us because we're in the NFL. And then Kizzy is already flirting with David. And he asks her name. And he does it in that flirty way. He's like, what's your name?

0

1680.962 - 1681.323

Yeah.

1681.823 - 1686.268 Aisha

She's like, Kizzy. Dot, dot, dot.

1686.248 - 1689.896 Ronnie Karam

So she's giggling and being weird. And it's on between those two.

1689.916 - 1695.567 Ben Mandelker

It is. So then David's like, so where are you from?

1695.828 - 1696.309 Kizzy

England.
