#2886 Below Deck S12E02: French Mustered

0:00Therapy's biggest impact doesn't show up in some dramatic breakthrough. It shows up in the smallest moments. You bite your tongue instead of escalating.

2:12Ben Mandelker: What happens when there's so much that crap ends?

2:42Ben Mandelker: doing a show in Seattle. We're so excited to make our grand return after two years, the Pacific Northwest. We always have a wonderful time there.

And then the following week, the following Thursday, June 19th, here in Los Angeles, the end of our Mountain Hysteria tour, We're doing it at the Fonda Theater. We're going to recap The Valley in Hollywood.

3:16Ben Mandelker: So come join us. That's going to be a great, great show. It's also our last show. So let's do it out with a bang. And I am hoping that Jax does not crash it. I don't think he will. So anyway, that's it. Watchacrapids.com to get your tickets. And then on Patreon, we are doing bonus episodes every day that we're recording of Love Island. because we're all into that. So go to patreon.com slash watchercrappins and get your daily dose of Love Island goodness. Plus also Crappins On Demand where you can watch us, not just listen. These episodes are recorded on video. They're streamed on video and you can watch them on Patreon.

3:56Ben Mandelker: And then a week later, they will be free on YouTube. So that's all the good stuff. All the good stuff. Just a quick note. Daily means whenever we record. So this week we're doing Monday through Wednesday, Love Island, and then we'll be back on Monday, Monday through Thursday, generally. Okay. Yeah, because we don't record on Friday. So today is Below Deck. We have a new chef. Who's it going to be? Who's it going to be? Well, I'll tell you. You don't have to look very far because they just don't even care about hiding this. Last week, I went on to Peacock. This was like on Wednesday, the day after the...

4:33Ben Mandelker: No, it was Tuesday. This is the day after the Below Deck premiere. and they have a big, you know, the big image that's like below deck, watch below deck. And they have a lineup of the entire crew. You see them all standing there, like waving high to guests. And right there, just right there is Frenchie just standing there as well as someone else. And I'm not going to say who the other person was, but like, there's obviously someone else is no longer part is going to last on this cast and they're going to be replaced with someone else like, Oh, you're just, Oh, wow. Don't even care. Just don't even care.

5:04Ben Mandelker: It's gotta be the bosun, right? the bosun guy seems like he's not long for this world yeah i'm not gonna i'm not gonna say who is going to be leaving but basically there are definitely two people there were definitely two people on that photo that did not start the season and so i just thought it was so funny how peacock just brazenly posted a spoiler right there on their main page the peacock but luckily it's blow deck i don't think we really care too much about the spoilers right no it's no mystery whoever it is that's going to clean. They're going to cook. Say that. Or sexually harass someone.

5:41Yes, very possibly. Or get their dick pierced. You never know on this show. I love that this show is like, let's change it up every year just a little bit. This year we'll have like an opening scene where everybody goes to drinks and that's not enough. Pierce someone's dick. Alright, we're in.

5:57Ben Mandelker: New season. The other switch up is that this episode whenever someone gave like a stupid piece of their backstory, they gave them like a Real Housewives kind of thing where they just put their name. They put like a whole bunch of biographical photos up on screen and then they put their name really big. And it was just funny because normally on the Real Housewives, when you see someone's name up on screen, they get like a whole scene that lasts five minutes. Here it's like Johnny. And then it's like, yeah, when I was younger, I used to always love ice cream. And that's where I really developed my love for ice cream.

6:28Ben Mandelker: And then we just move on with the show. I'm like, really? Did that require like a giant name before they said that commentary? The end. Yeah, I guess maybe they're getting complaints like, well, I don't know who anybody is on these shows. They're always different people. Johnny. Johnny likes ice cream, has mother issues, and a daughter living in Fort Lauderdale. I wonder who would have said these things. A daughter living in a locker in a bus station in Fort Lauderdale close to dock. So, we opened with Lawrence freaking out in the kitchen. Chef Lawrence, I'm shaking. I really don't know what to do.

7:05I can't do this anymore. And Kerry comes in. He's like, it's a high stress situation, mate. Sometimes things go bad. Sometimes things go good. What are you going to do? Sometimes you poop. Sometimes you don't got nothing coming out. You just go on with your life. You're going to really handle this really well soon. Don't worry, mate. He's like, I can't do this. What would Jesus do? He wouldn't quit. That man wandered in the desert for 30 days and didn't eat anything, okay?

7:31Ben Mandelker: It's the best diet I ever did. What I need you to do is pull up your big boy pants and get the job done. Sorry that the idea of slicing a piece of broccoli stresses you out. Now let me get back to my job of driving a giant$400 million boat through a tiny bridge, all right? Sorry that you're the one that stressed here. He's like, well, I'll tell you now instead of at the end of the trip. See, we've got more time to get someone else, but I've got to go. I've got to go. And he's like, all right, fine. Wuss. And so Lawrence is muttering to himself. Oh my God, I'm going to have a panic attack. I've never had a panic attack before.

8:07My head is up my fucking asshole.

8:11Ben Mandelker: Yeah, he is really losing it. And Fraser is like, so, Kerry, I just spoke with the chef and it sounds as though this might be his last trip. So I wanted to get in one little tattletale before he's gone. He's like, yeah, I already talked to him, so it's not really a tattletale anymore. But, you know, you've been here a day and, you know, someone's willing to quit so quick. I can't have that. I need someone I can trust. I love that Kerry's acting like he's firing him when the guy quit. He's like, listen, I could see the guy was getting overwhelmed. Okay, we put a carrot on a cutting board and he nearly melted down.

8:44Ben Mandelker: So I showed him support, but that support couldn't get him through his funk. And he has decided he can't be here any longer. He doesn't want to be up for the adventure. So I'm going to try to convince him to stay, but without a chef. I mean, what options do we have? Do I get in the galley? What do we do? So, of course, Fraser's like, oh, my God, I'm so stressed out. What am I going to do? I've got a chef going crazy. I don't have a chef. God, I wish I had another chef that I hadn't fucked over behind their back to call on. Hmm.

9:15So then we go to KO. So, well, first Barbara is showing the little girls on the boat her tattoos. And she's like, look, these are my tattoos. These are my cats. I have four cats and 18 dogs. Here's their names. Lucy, Benny, Jiggly, Brick, Amelie, Flower. Flower again. But spelled like the flower you eat, not the flower you grow. Although you could eat that flower too, to be honest. Pupu. I was running out of names.

9:46Ben Mandelker: then ko tells us my dad he always told me what deserves to be done deserves how to be done he came from nothing and he built a construction company this is the ongoing story of came from nothing now i went into yachting well i love his come from nothing by the way it's like i came from nothing my dad owns a construction company i'm like um he had food even at the car coming from nothing, but love your hair. He's like, I know. It's like my dad is a perfectionist, so I mean I'm doing a good job is important because you can either enjoy it and do the best you can or you can fucking complain all day.

10:21Ben Mandelker: It's going to be a nightmare for everyone. So I choose actually neither of the above. I will not complain and I won't do a good job. Listen, I want to do a good job and enjoy it and do it the best I can and also complain. So stop yucking my yum, sir. That's my lifestyle you're fucking with. So Fraser is grabbing some eggs from Lawrence. He's like, do we have any microgreens or anything? He's like, I don't put microgreens on fucking eggs. Fraser's like, I'm so angry that you've already quit because I would be undermining you so hard right now. He's coming for my garnishes now. Something must change.

11:01I've already quit, you motherfucker. Get the fuck out of my kitchen.

11:05Ben Mandelker: Sorry, sorry. Jesus was on a coffee break, so that slipped out, but I'm back in com again. I wish this guy was staying just to watch him rip Fraser a new one because you know he would. He's not going to put up with that shit for two seconds, that microgreens bullshit. I love that. I don't put microgreens on fucking eggs. Who was the stew who was always like very, who had a lot of commentary about like that there should be microgreens on things? There is someone. Yeah. Wasn't it him? Was it him? Who was like, we should add microgreens. It was like putting garnish. It wasn't microgreens specifically, but it was like garnishing.

11:44You need to garnish your plates. I don't remember who it was. I don't remember. Yeah, it was Asha. I think it was that one. Do you want to put some microgreens? Can you put some garnish on there?

12:00So the guests are eating, and they're like, oh my God, perfect egg. Did you guys blacklight the egg? This egg is fucking disgusting. You don't have to wear it, dad. Just eat it for fuck's sake.

12:12Ben Mandelker: Oh, wow. Well, the French, they do it right. Although the one thing they can't get right is they don't shave the shit down there. Okay, come on. You got to shave down there. Okay. Because when you put the black light on, the last thing you want to see is a giant nest. Am I right? Like, um, there are kids here. Do we have to talk about this in front of the kids? Like, oh, they don't know. Yeah. Um, weird family. So then, um, they're like, um, hey, by the way, uh, Fraser, could you ask the chef if we could get a smile for dinner? that would be great no you fucking pubic hair obsessed little shit you cannot eat your fucking black light so Barbara's talking with working with Selene and she's like okay please let's try to keep like this pantry like I know it's hard but like let's please try to keep this as like as maximum as possible let's make it as nice as possible and Selene's like yeah yeah yeah I know I know why are you yelling at me you don't have to yell at me just tell me yeah I know it's like it's fine She's like, I know it sucks to do it like this, but we have to do it.

13:08Oh, my God, this girl. I'm starting to understand her. You know, I know that language communication is hard. I've been in her situation. I speak four languages. I know how to say fuck you in eight. But, you know, I explain things easier way for her. Like, please. Okay, thank you. You know, it's stupid, but it's better for her. She'll be happy. So I'll say please. What the fuck?

13:30Ben Mandelker: so uh he's been setting up a whole bunch of like floaty things and so now he's gonna have some lunch and everyone the guests are gonna go play with water toys and people are cleaning and so lane she's like um rimbo rimbo can i show you something please in my cabin and rimbo's like yes of course my love look it is something very bad something i've never seen in a toilet before look at that look, do you see what is in there? Like, poop. Oh, she's like, it's just a little piece of poop. Yes, it's a little poop. Oh, just a little poop. Just a little poop. We have all the German the face of shit. That is what we have here.

14:05All of the German the face of shit. Poop, just a little poop. It is not just a little poop. It is dead. It is dead. Who can get me there? I will not touch it anymore.

14:12Ben Mandelker: You have seen everything. This is nothing, okay? Look, I have had people take an actual shit on the teak, okay, on the main deck aft. during the Monaco Grand Prix. So this is really nothing. No, I will not do. No, no, poor, poor family. No. You're going to put your hand in the ugly, how do you do that? So Fraser goes to the captain. He's like, Captain, I've had a thought. Okay, well, do you want to sit down? Do you just want to tell me right now, mate? He's like, all right, I'll sit down. Now, if the chef's going to be departing, can I possibly suggest Chef Anthony? Yes, I know he cries a lot, and in an accent that's hard to listen to tears in.

14:53But the man is skilled. He's very skilled. And his genes are very, very small as well.

15:00Ben Mandelker: He's very skilled at making a mess in the galley. And I think that would be hilarious to make him feel bad about. Can we do that? He lets me request micro greens without cursing. You know, Chef Anthony and I, we went through a lot last year. And I just think he lost his way and he spiralled. but he's got it in him. That boy is incredibly talented, and I'm a little bit bored. I'd love to undermine him a little bit more. And if I can help him, and by help him I mean undermine him, where I need you and guide him, we've got something. Cap needs his toy, Cap. So he's like, oh, I love the idea of Anthony coming back.

15:37I mean, he started off really strong, but that mental state wasn't good. All right, that's why we had to let him go. Do you remember that? He's like, well, I've spoken with him a lot since then, and he's been working on boats since he'd left our vessel, and his confidence is through the roof. His jeans are even tighter. His hair is even slicker. I think he's ready to come back. Well, I hope he's ready to come back to cook some good food and have a good... What? Adventure!

16:04Ben Mandelker: All right, then. Let me tell you something. He will. I'm telling you, his confidence is through the roof, and I think we could do a really great job of destroying that for him. So come on, let's bring him back. All right. I trust you. So meanwhile, Selena's still like, i'm fighting the poop come on just shove it in there no you want to do it you want to do it she's like okay you see this brush just swirl it around oh my god oh you wash the poop oh thank you so much for watching the poop is so much so um rainbow is checking in with cal there's some lunch cow's eating and um she's like where you been and he says on the water what else so fraser radios rainbow to check on laundry and she's with barbara and uh she's like oh my god barbara i've done everything this morning i did three and a half cabins and she did half my god did you hear her screaming what's that's her saying poopoo poopoo over and over yes so terry goes out to the swim platforms the guests are playing around he's like well a lot of strong winds coming through i call them adventure winds and like oh wow storm's coming in oh wow storm storm storm's like yeah we gotta keep an eye on these guests okay they've got little children okay so if a kid goes over the side.

17:15Ben Mandelker: We need to have this boat ready to go. If a kid flops into the ocean and you see sharks swirling around, here's a little inner tube that will help out. Like, okay, great. It's like, where's cow anyway? Cow, chow, chow, cow, chow, cow. And he's, of course, just eating. Now listen, on this boat, we'll let children fall overboard, but we don't just leave them there. We get them back in. Does everyone understand? If one of these children falls overboard, but then forgets who they actually are, get some cameras on them because we can make a delightful comedy out of it. Leave little notes about their personalities all over the boat so they can rediscover themselves in their two days on this yacht.

17:53Everybody got it? All right. But do it. Tell their timelines backwards. It's much more entertaining that way.

18:03Ben Mandelker: You know, it's a tough job to be the bosun. Our safety is our priority one. We've got two young kids on the boat, three children if you count the chef. hey the weather is getting shit you guess are everywhere and you've got you're having a feed and someone's on break fuck no it's anti-adventure i feel bad for kyo because this poor guy is like okay we're gonna put out all the water toys we're gonna put them together with the rope because the rope's gonna keep them be how we're gonna do it but that's how we're gonna do guys and then we're gonna always have the toys i think he watched like a season of captain sandy where she's like i want all the water toys out there every second of the day do you understand me this is a luxury the moment we DAC is the moment we put out all the toys DAC, toys, DAC, toys so Carrie's just not happy because there's not enough people out on the deck to be keeping an eye on all these people especially because there's kids so they wake up and K.O.

18:58Ben Mandelker: has to leave his lunch and everything and all that stuff so Lawrence meanwhile is working on food and he's like this is a chicken with truffle and bacon sauce and serve lobster blah blah blah blah blah blah blah and Kerry FaceTimes Anthony. He's like, oh, good to see you, Captain. And Kerry's like, yo, too, mate. How have you been? Making a big mess in a bunch of different galleys. Oh, yes. I'm doing chow-tow in Bahamas and the guests are so happy, so happy for me. Well, my mate, chef is starting to spiral. Last season, mate, I loved the food you put out. I just didn't love the crazy you put out.

19:33So could you just come back and be less insane? And he's like, oh, my God, Captain, You are not going to regret it. You have my word. My suitcase is already back. All right. I'll see you soon, Captain. Wait, aren't you working in the Bahamas? Fuck him. It was a lie. It was a lie.

19:49Ben Mandelker: Captain, I realized... I'm finally checking out. I'm checking out of here. Fuck all of you and your jello.

19:58Ben Mandelker: Captain, I realized the reason why I had problems was because my eyebrows were too big and too bushy. So now I have plucked them into just teeny, teeny, teeny lines. and now I can see clearly and I will make beautiful food. So he tells us, he's like, getting fired on St. David. I was like, kind of destroyed. But after the season, you know, Barbie called me and she told me Fraser was a big part of me getting fired. So that hurt me. It hurt me so bad. Hold on. It's hurting me again. It's hurting. It hurts. It hurts on the inside. You're not done shooting yet. Oh, okay. I don't know what happened.

20:34We will work at that later. Once I have job, I will get him. I will kill him. I will have revenge. He will die of tears. He will drown in tears. Probably my tears, because I don't like hurting people. I will hurt them. I will cry. But I will cry down his breathing hole, and he will die.

20:49Ben Mandelker: My name is Inigo Montoya. You messed up my galley. Prepare for many dishes. Prepare for many, many dishes. No, I will not put fucking microdream on my eggs. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Crappens commercial. You know those pieces in your closet, Ronnie, that you find yourself wearing on repeat?

It's the best way to support the show. There was a time about 10 years ago when I was in the worst credit card debt of my life. It was insane. I couldn't get out of it, no matter what I did. It just was always there. I was in the hole. But then I finally got my stuff together, and I was able to chip away at it.

22:57Ben Mandelker: and you see the light at the end of the tunnel, and when you're finally able to claw out of it, it is such a wonderful, liberating feeling. And that's why what Monarch does is so great, because it helps people pay down their debt.

That's 50 % off your first year at Monarch.com with code CRAPPINS. I have a theory which may be sort of self-serving, but whatever. I mean, why not? I have a theory. Those are the best kind. I have a theory that this animosity between Frenchie and Fraser, I think you caused it, Ronnie.

24:15Me?

24:16Ben Mandelker: I think it was because of you. What did I do? Because you were the first one to start really clocking how Fraser was undermining Frenchie. like because the whole the whole narrative on the show was frenchie was overwhelmed but you on this podcast and you convinced me too and i'm not saying it's it's it's it's a solid take you were very much like look at fraser undermining and the thing is this barbie i think listens to the podcast because she commented a few times on our instagram so then when he said that barbie that when barbie called him up and said that fraser was undermining i was like barbie was probably listening to us and especially you you were much more hopeful about it i'm not true yeah i'm not abdicating my my co-signing of it but i really do feel like this was really your thing and i think that barbie listened was like you know what ronnie is right and i'm gonna tell frenchy and he's gonna watch it with new eyes so i fully believe in my life if i could cause shit you know i really do think this i really do think chaos like but it's true fraser does do that he's got a bad habit and he's done it through all of his seasons.

25:21This is his third one, right? He's been doing it the whole time he's here. That's just how he is. You know? We'll see. I can't wait to find out who his victim is this year. Because he's going to do it again.

25:31Ben Mandelker: And the crazy part is there's only been one person who's really ever called him out on it. And you know who that person is on the show? It's Captain Sandy. Captain Sandy saw that shit right away. Yeah. She did. She said, like, you're the snake rots at the head and you're the head of the snake. And guess what? even snake heads deserve a get in here. Oh, that's right. Cause she was, she was gonna, that was the season where she was firing Captain Lee's staff cause Captain Lee was ill and could, or he had surgery, something happened and he couldn't do the first part of the season. And so Sandy did it and he's like, God damn it.

26:03Trying to fire all my goddamn people. And they had this whole online war about it

26:07Ben Mandelker: and stuff. Oh, that was good. That was a wild season. That was with Camille. We saw a brief flashback to that in this one. I miss Camille, man. How are they not having Camille back? Although I love all the stews this year. I think they did a great job casting stews, but Camille was a tremendous mess of a person. Great dumpster fire. They should at least put her onto Winterhouse. Jeez. So anyway, so some vegetables fall over and Kerry's like, well, I spoke to the chef. Worked out, Lawrence. The plan will be he'll, he's going to come in here and then you can crawl your big boy tears into his shoulder.

26:42Ben Mandelker: We'll get you a diaper and send you off. All right. That sound good to you? It sounds so good. It sounds so good to me. Oh, no, sorry. This is Lawrence. He's like, of course, of course. Oh, God. Mother, son, Holy Spirit, motherfucker. So, Kerry's like, all right, Anthony knows the job. That's the pro. The con, I fired him before. I don't want to repeat it. So, I want to keep Lawrence along so Chef Anthony can get back in the game. And what better to help him than a crying Christian?

27:15Ben Mandelker: so meanwhile demo and jess are talking about you know girls and stuff and you know and and kyle's there too and basically demo they're saying like oh my god did you know barbara's gay and and then jess is like yeah and now we get a jess segment she goes you know i wear my gayness proudly i'm proud of who i am i went to a pretty religious sorry i'm trying to get to south africa in my mouth but I can't do it right now. I went to a birthday religious school. I'm like, that's not happening. There are so many accents to mangle on this show. That's why I love it. It's just like a bad accent tape for a whole season.

27:51It's like 10 bad accent tapes at one time.

27:53Ben Mandelker: So she says, I came out to my parents in the last year of high school and I was expecting the worst. So I told my mom, dad, I was gay. I was gay and they weren't going to accept me because it's looked down on an Afrikaans culture. But then I saw a big sobbing gay man on this very show and he kept on yelling out coil coil coil and i well actually no i'm sorry frank frank he did call out his own name too in the mirror it was unseen footage i realized if he could be out loud and pray and afrikaans i could be too so funny um yeah and she's like and finally i told my dad and he was like i know i don't care And I was like, oh my God, you know, this is a lot of work for me.

28:37You know, she's like, she wanted him to have a problem so she could have an end to the drama. There's a big letdown. Yeah. My mom didn't believe me for a long time. She was like, you're lying. You're doing this to hurt me. And everyone around was like, your son is literally the gayest thing we've ever seen. Okay. Your son is so gay. The rainbow flag beat him over the head. Okay. He's being gay bashed by the gay flag. You've got the gayest son we've ever seen. He's like, no, it's a lie.

29:06Ben Mandelker: It's a phase. It's a phase. So meanwhile, the girls are, little girls want to go up to the hot tubs. They're playing in there. And then Lawrence texts his girlfriend to say that he's quitting. He had a monologue in here, which we may have missed, where he was saying like, you know, ever since I found Christ, you know, I used to be so short-tempered and so agitated all the time, but then I found Christ. I'm like, have you seen the footage of yourself? No, you will not be in the advertisement.

29:36Ben Mandelker: you're not in the brochure there is no one going door-to-door holding up your picture like welcome in nope is it if this is the chill version of you i would really love to see what what the pre-christ version was yeah um no sir so he's like you know um thank god for that i can't even find where this part is is this but where he just the little where he tells his girlfriend that he's quitting yeah oh where the where the where his little monologue was i don't know where it was i just was like i'm just gonna say it right here because oh yeah yeah he texts his girlfriend he's a quitter yeah okay i see that so then um jess is frustrated and saying this isn't gonna work for me and carrie's like are you good she goes yeah i'm just a bit frustrated and he's like well you've got just got time to pump the learn to pump the brakes you know just chip it away at it chip away at it.

30:26So then Fraser has Barbara and Rainbow set the table for Bollywood theme and Rainbow is like, I care about the product we produce. We are working with billionaires, like the top of the top. Like if you can give those people that wow feeling, that's incredible.

30:43Ben Mandelker: Yeah. Over eager Stu. Can't wait to watch her break down and lose her shit. Yep. Tablescapes. The one who's always so invested in tablescapes is always the one who like loses their mind. Yeah. So I'm the one overly impressed with billionaires too. I think when people are like, oh my god, we are serving people with money, those people are always going to be crushed. Yeah. So there's some stuff happening on the deck with K.O. and Jess about do this, do that, did you eat, did you not eat, did you not. It's basically like he has really bad time management and Kyle's like, it feels like K.O. isn't used to managing a team.

31:19Ben Mandelker: Me and Demoro, simple creatures. Food, drink, and Fuck, that's pretty much it. Train monkeys, mate. You can't support me to the direction you need, man, man. So then Sarah and Jade are talking about dinner, and is it going to be late? Jade's like, I don't know. I mean, a guy from England cooking? Indian? So who knows what's even going to happen? Well, Lawrence has some news. I'm going to be going home, and it feels like a weight's been lifted off my shoulders. I'm just not one to pack things in on the first day. But when it comes to having to cook an egg, it's a bit too much. It's a big ask for me.

32:00Ben Mandelker: So yes, it feels a bit of a failure. But the problem is when everything's going wrong around you, obviously there's a limit. I definitely feel more relaxed now because British people love curry and I love curry. And I went to India 11 years ago. And when I was there in India, I said, this is too much. I can't do this anymore. So I came back to Britain and I went to Wagamama and I said, there, this is food. So he serves beef and chickpea madras And the guests love it Okay, that's amazing That's just absolutely amazing Oh my god So now Celine and Barbara are in a room In a cabin And Celine's like Oh, it is beautiful, the bed It looks so good And she's like It's not ready, please, Celine This doesn't belong here What is all this stuff on the bed?

32:44There's literal trash on the bed It is not trash, it is blanket Okay, it is wrapper of thing Maybe it's trash, okay maybe I did the bed this morning maybe she didn't touch this side so I don't have to do it again no because so maybe I just do half the bed no you have to do

32:59Ben Mandelker: the whole thing over over you know because basically like someone says no poop on my face today I don't have to do this now because basically like the person barely disrupted their bed but Barbara's like you have to change all the sheets sorry that's just the way I go so it's not like the poop in the bed Like, and I have to touch a poopelier today. By the way, I like there's a moment, there's a really small moment with Celine where she was like unfolding some sort of garment or she was trying to fold it. She's like, I don't understand what shape. It is not square. It is not triangle. It is bat.

33:36It's a trapezoid. Okay, we have to make the bed. But why? Because we have to. But why we have to make it? Because we have to. But I know you say I'm going to do, okay, but I want to know why. Oh, my God. Barbara's losing her mind. She goes, fuck her. Fuck myself. I have to do four cabins now by myself. And she's like, so Elaine, she's always questioning things. But why? I don't know why either. I would never do it in my home. Just do it. It's a boat. She's fucking annoying.

34:04Ben Mandelker: These two together are so hilarious. It's like I'm just laughing out loud every single second. And they're both hilarious. Barbara is really funny, too. I love them. Oh, yeah. Barbara is. I love Barbara. So now it's time for dessert. It's yogurt strawberry salad with the mango sorbet. They're like, oh, chef, you really outdid yourself tonight. You know what? I want to give you this black light. Please fit and use it. Uh-oh, I just turned it on. I see a little demon sitting on your shoulder. That's weird. Sticking his tongue in your ear. Do you feel that? So Fraser sitting with Barbara. I was turned down.

34:41Ben Mandelker: She said, bad. She doesn't listen to me. I have to say, no, Fraser. Fraser said that and then she listens to me I have to always say that over and over again but I just don't want you to be frustrated now because I was planning on I don't know, destroying your mental state in about three episodes so just stay strong now I promise you I'm going to do something about it and mostly it's going to be right into my journal someone said they need to ask me first, I finally fucking did it journal, suck my dick you undermining little journal bitch alright, go back to work that's it? yes thank you so back to the guest uh carrie has joined them for dessert so this guy sam is like you know your crew has been so good with these two kids well i had a little chat with the crew before everyone arrived and i said if your kid falls over you're fired ha ha ha sam's like well that'll do it but if they come back with their life change and has to go over again you're rehired and given a raise because i want to bring children adventure do you understand do you hey captain And Kerry, you have kids too, right?

35:42Ben Mandelker: Mm-hmm. My daughter's 12. My son's 14. And I haven't seen them in nine months. They live in Fort Lauderdale. I miss them so much. I'm going to sell kimonos. Sorry, I was just, I sort of slid into some below deck tropes. They're actually fine. They're very well adjusted children, which is strange. So Kyle's checking in with Lawrence. He's like, how's it today, mate? And he's like, oh my God, I feel a lot better than this morning. I had a fucking explosion this morning. I mean, basically I said, I'm gone. That's it. I'm gone. I'm done. Girl's like, well, that was this morning. Have you changed your tune a little bit, maybe?

36:15You're like, no, I haven't.

36:18Ben Mandelker: And this is where he has his monologue. Before I met Jesus, I was a very different person. I was pretty short-tempered. Just used to be. I used to get angry all the time. But my faith has helped me through this by making me resilient in the face of eggs. Well, I could do one egg, but two eggs, I'm out. Scrambled? How fucking dare you. How dare you. But, you know, my faith has helped me through these challenging few days. How has it helped you? You're quitting. You are the worst advertisement I've ever seen. He's like, yes, but I've got the peace to know when I walk away from things, it's good.

36:53Jesus did not walk away from things. Where are you learning this religion? Come to me. I don't even believe in it anymore, and I'll tell you.

37:01Ben Mandelker: It's always the worst people who are very selective with what parts of religion that they use for their journey to excuse what they do, right? Yeah. Yeah. He's like, God, Jesus has really helped me tell everybody off, curse at the entire crew, and quit. Quit? Wow. Sign me up. So he's like, well, I mean, the crew's great. Captain's great. I mean, he's been good to me, the captain, you know. But my gut is telling me, walk away. Walk away. Okay. Relax, ma 'am. So then outside, Selene and Jess. Just a note, martyrs don't quit. Okay. Yeah, you should be grandma. That's all I have to say to you, sir.

37:41Yeah.

37:42Ben Mandelker: So, Selene and Jess are having a smoke. And Jess is like, oh, so we drop off tomorrow. And I'm nervous tomorrow. We're going to get to the marina. And we're going to have to go through that passageway. And Selene's like, big day for you. I don't know why. I wasn't really listening. But sounds exciting. It's like, yeah. She's like, by the way, do you have a lighter? She's like, oh, hold on. It's in my boob. Like, oh, yeah. She's like, yeah, I have everything here. Here's my lipstick. Here's a sandwich. Oh, look, I found a tumbler from Starbucks. Oh, people think it's so fun. You know, like, are you horny?

38:11No, it's just a lipstick in my booboo. So they love each other. Her and Jess like each other. She's like, oh, I love Jess. She's like breath of oxygen. I can breathe. I can breathe everything.

38:26Ben Mandelker: And I've been holding my breath ever since I saw poo-poo. So it's the next day, next morning. It's the last day of the charter. Everyone's waking up. Carrie's radioing everyone. Carrie is nervous because they got to go through that tiny bridge. You know what needs to go to Shut Up Mountain? That bridge. I'm already mad at it. First of all, we're going to deal with this every single episode. Right? We're going to deal with it every single episode. Why do they do this? You've got a whole other, like you made a drawbridge part of one side. Why not make the other side drawbridge also? Why do we not have full drawbridge?

38:56They have multiple clips from fucking B-roll headline news about people crashing into this fucking dock. and they still like multiple and they still just keep it that way it's like well it's cheaper i guess what to fix a super yacht than it is to make the freeway uh wider come on guys come on

39:15Ben Mandelker: come on bridge it up do the other half as a bridge you could do it this is some bullshit i agree with i'm like i'm actually mad i'm mad i feel like it's very french though to be like oh really it's too tight do it again do it again do it again stupid there's probably like one bridge person up there They're just laughing like, oh, got another, got another. They probably get like more money from the French government every time they get another like headline news clip of a yacht crashing into the freeway. Seriously. So they have to go to this tiny narrow passage and he carries it. Well, all the YouTubes I've seen, the boat hit the bridge.

39:53Ben Mandelker: You just go to Captain Jason, Captain Glenn, drivingboats.com and you can see all the boats have crashed into this bridge. I just don't want to join them in it. So the risk is to the vessel is very high. I don't want to crash. And so we see all these accidents, which are crazy. So they're going to get - Like how much does it cost to repair the bridge every time somebody crashes into the freeway? Come on, man. Come on, Jay. You have to remodel the bridge anyway. So just remodel it proper. It's ridiculous. Of course, then I thought, but then they have to fit in these tiny slips and they always do that.

40:26But still, a slip is less scary than a bridge to crash into.

40:30Ben Mandelker: How about this? How about just shut down the road and just demolish the bridge? How about make it where boats can fly? And then they could just fly over. Yeah. Yeah. How about that? Or make water solid and just put wheels on boats. Do we really need that bridge there? Do we need that road, in fact? Can't they just go drive around the marina like everyone else? Do we really need them to drive there? Why don't we even need yachts? Why can't rich people just swim? I want to bring up. I want to see this, Matt. I want to look. I want to look. rich people don't swim very well that's for sure apparently um so yeah so this thing's ridiculous but they handle it pretty well they get it through which for their first time is good i mean i guess you have to be even if it's your first time because you know i play video games and i suck literally for 20 hours and get killed multiple times before i even learn how to shoot one thing so for me it's just like i'll just crash you'll learn but you can't do that on a boat you know you you can't just crash it once but they got through i was proud of them yeah it was and you really see how narrow it is it's very narrow by the way i'm also right now i'm on google maps and i'm because in my mind i'm prosecuting a case againstst martin about how they built this road and i have found i think i found the bridge and uh it's next to a thing that says there's a little island it's called snoopy island oh that's cute okay i take it all back you can keep snoopy would get it back snoopy would get that boat through just fine he put like a little scarf on talking a funny voice and get it across although maybe it's oh you know what uh maybe it's the i don't know i'm gonna have to look into this next episode i'm gonna come back and i will give a full report about about that bridge and how necessary it is to have that bridge because i'm really still not convinced yeah i'm that bridge sucks i don't care what anybody says so they get it over and carrie's kind of freaking out because he's got the adrenaline running through him because it's going to be close every time and so kyle's like okay how'd it go and he's like oh my god there's no yelling no screaming no nothing i mean the parameters come on mate come on and kyle's like oh my god i thought i actually did something good for once yeah commercials here comes one right now he lurks in shadow he slips into dreams he casts no reflection Audible presents Bram Stoker's Dracula, a full cast audio thriller starring Ella Pernell from Fallout as Mina Harker, Jonathan Bailey from Wicked as Dracula, and an A-list cast including...

And I just am so thankful that you kept it clean for us. Thank you so much for having us. At the end of the night, the only DNA I was covered in was my own. So I'd like to thank you all. Oh my God, Pupu. Here's a monetary gift for all of you. It's just a gift that you didn't really earn it. It's just my generosity in an envelope. You're welcome, poor people. Okay. So now they get changed out of their whites and Kyle and Damo are gossiping.

45:43Ben Mandelker: Did you hear it in the news? We're going to Brigadine. No, actually, Jeff is gone. I know the original cast of that. His name is Ben. As someone who played Archie Beaton, Scottish accent means a lot to me. It's part of my story. Welcome to Brigadeen. That was my line. That's all I said in that entire musical. So they talk about how there's a new chef coming and they're like, oh my god, I can't believe the chef's already fucking off. So then Fraser is talking to Carrie. Oh, so and now it's tip meeting. So it's like, guys, first one done, eh? All right, guys, thanks for taking the time out of your busy afternoon fucking off to get the boat sorted.

46:27All right, boy, from the very first moment this charter started, there were roadblocks. We've got a lady afraid of poo-poo. We've got a man who says Jesus, but also fuck in the same sentence. We've got lots of stuff going. We've got Fraser. Who knows why he's here again? I mean, God bless us all. Casting is just destined to fuck us all up the arsehole. All right, let's go over tips. 30 grand.

46:52Ben Mandelker: Well, I'm happy. 30 grand, which is outrageous. That's almost twice as much as Contessa gave on another season of the show.

47:04Ben Mandelker: Well done. So that's a huge tip. That was a huge tip. I don't think we've ever seen 30 ,000 before. I feel like we usually see like 25 ,000 or 27 ,000. We've seen 30 before, but it's rare. It's rare. Okay. It's a rare one. I remember I just remember because we had a friend going on there and they're like how much do I need to tip I was like if you want to look rich 30 if you want to look normal and not stingy 25 if you want to look pathetic and rude anything under that

47:34and they took 25 I was very proud yeah because I was like you could have gone you could have gone 30 I told you 30 could have done better 30 yeah

47:45Ben Mandelker: so Demo and Keo are talking about women and Keo tells us a little bit about like he's just really focused on his job he really can't focus on women right now so he just needs to focus on the work so Fraser calls Solane for a meeting he's like hello Solane how's that chat for you oh it's new I want to be very good at my job but you know there's poo poo in toilet so I don't know how I'm supposed to deal with that because we cannot talk poo poo okay it is face of germ so here's my plan I listen to everybody and what they have to say to me. And you know what I do? I shut up. That's what I do. I shut up.

48:17I say, Solaine, shut up. Have you heard me shutting up? It's so loud. It's crazy. Everybody loves it. Have you heard? Yes, the exact opposite of what she does. Now, you know, Barbara and Rainbow know the job, so I just want to ask you to please listen and do what they say. Only if you say. Okay, well, I'm saying no, but only if you say. You say first, and I say yes, okay.

48:42Ben Mandelker: Do it. Basically, listen. If someone with bangs talks to you, listen to what they have to say, otherwise you will be fired. Gross bangs. Okay, quiet, Solene. You know, I do feel like there's potential for drama, which I do love, but I'm just getting flashbacks. Flashbacks to Stu's fighting, and then we see flashbacks of Camille and the other girl fighting, and then flashbacks of Barbie. Camille's like, water bottles are hard. What the fuck do you want from me? I can only carry so many water bottles at one time. Why are you trying to murder me? Then we cut to Kyle and Damo, who have actually the most sexual energy and chemistry on this boat.

49:25Ben Mandelker: They do. For sure, they're going to jerk off together and make out. That's just going to happen at some point. At the very least, I hope. I hope so. I don't think they did it on that night cam. Yeah. So they're basically both naked. And Kyle's like, Oh, Mel, you got a fucking dick piercing. He's like, yeah. He's like, why did you do that? He's like, when I was 20. he did it for charity which by the way fuck that charity what's what charity is this yeah he goes I did it for charity I did it for the kids what are you sure you weren't on a prank show and then he details exactly how they do it and I was like oh no stop stop I don't need to know yeah he says they shove a tube down your urethra and then they just keep going down and then they pierce from the bottom side up with the needle that's gonna hurt for he's like it hurt for six months i was like yeah don't do that no i don't mean to each their own you know but you have to pee multiple times a day and you oh wieners are just so weird you know they're weird anyway they're always a different size they grow they shrink they expand they contract like they're up yeah they're they're outside like how do you know what that thing is gonna do it's just a lot it's just a lot it's a lot it's like caught on and if that thing gets caught on something, that's no good.

50:43Ben Mandelker: That's why we're just not going to add unnecessary things to the wiener because there's already a lot that's going on down there. Okay? Yeah. So, meanwhile, Lawrence is talking to Fraser in the van because we're going to dinner and he's like, I became a Christian two years ago. I started reading the Bible. I think the rapture is going to happen pretty soon. So, when it does happen, I don't want to be stuck in this shitty kitchen. Fuck off. Why is everybody so excited for the rapture all the time? I just don't get that. And I feel like it's all very newly religious people are like, the world, the world's about to end.

51:15Oh, God. I feel like God's up in heaven. Like, you're not important enough to hate. Shut up. I've got other things. It's Lisa Vanderpump up there. I've got other things going on, darling. Why would I end the world when I've got the new Lisa Vanderpump Hotel opening right now in Las Vegas?

51:32Ben Mandelker: I know. Heaven's crowded. They don't need to, like, double the size of it in one day. but also if you're really convinced the rapture is coming soon just stay home don't go to work you know what i mean like why do you go to work every day why do you even make an effort it's just so defeatist just go fucking cry what are you even praying about i mean if your whole thing is like oh my god i gotta pray to be saved and but your real belief is that the whole world is going to be set on fire what are you even praying to obviously it doesn't work yeah i think he's this guy is fuck off with that the rapture is coming not soon enough not soon enough to get me out of this conversation I do like that he's like I think the rapture is going to happen soon and Fraser goes okay can we not I'm on my first night out on the charter so I'd rather not think about the end of the world thank you so much

52:23so now they're out they're getting shit faced and Selene and Kyle go off to choose their lobster okay I've seen this even in the red lobster where they're like, who would you like to murder today? And then, you know, some lucky kid gets to go pick the thing they're going to murder. I've never seen somebody reach into the thing, stand on a chair, reach into the aquarium and take out their own thing. Have you?

52:45Ben Mandelker: Yeah, that was surprising. I mean, I guess it's not that far removed from fishing, but yeah, it did feel. Had a kidnapping charge to your murder charge. Like you're not going to be prosecuted anyway. I also don't think I want to reach my hands into a lobster tank before dinner anyway. because you know it's not just you have to wash your hand you have to wash your forearms like they're shitting there like those lobsters pee through their eyeballs you know i don't want that like so lobsters pee through their eyeballs yeah yeah i read a whole book about lobsters they do weird shit weird weird shit it's good book it's called the secret life of lobsters and people should read it it's really interesting uh it's a book where like when you're done with it you're like now i know all sorts of interesting things about lobsters and i'm gonna impress everyone at a cocktail party but now i've forgotten everything except for the fact that lobsters pee through their eyeballs.

53:31And you finally get invited to a cocktail party and you're like, did you know lobsters pee through their eyeballs?

53:37Ben Mandelker: And the other person's like, did you know the end of the world is around the corner? Did you know the rapture's coming? The rapture's happening. Okay, so Fraser goes up to Darmall and he's like, what's the goss? What's the 411? The goss? The streets? What are the streets saying? What's the riz? Exactly. what's the dealio what's the pow pow so then he's he's basically trying to find out who Deimo's is it Deimo or Damo I keep calling him Deimo I don't know we have a six week grace period okay grace with period is on so Deimo's like I've got slim pickings and Fraser goes unless until someone gets fired and he goes well it depends how serious you are with your boyfriend and he's like oh it's so funny this happens to Fraser every every season there's always some kind of there's some guy who's like a little sort of fluid who flirts with Fraser.

54:31Ben Mandelker: I feel like I've never seen that on any other proper show, except for when it happens with Fraser. It's like, oh, oh, well, the answer is not serious at all, if you're asking. But if anyone else is, very, very serious. He's like, never rule anything out, mate. And he's like, oh, my God, that guy's hot. I mean, he's a 10 out of 10. Oh, God, am I open for a kiss? I don't want to kiss him because I'd fall madly in love with him. And I need to understand from the get-go that boy is straight. and I have a boyfriend, right? So I just need to tell myself, he's straight, he's straight, he's straight, he's straight, he's straight.

55:03His dick is in my mouth. Why is his dick in my mouth?

55:09Ben Mandelker: So then Solène has the lobster that she pulled out and she's like, oh look, it's Vanessa, my lobster. What are you doing here, Vanessa? You smell like dead pussy. And Barbara's like, did you say dead pussy? Dead pussy. I said dead pussy. It's my fish, yeah. anyone smell it i'm an angel i'm an angel an angel who does not like poo poo but kind of the smell of pussy give it to me vanessa this girl's crazy everyone's just looking at her like oh my god kyle's just like salivating and she's like i see scottish looking at me i love she calls him scottish i see scottish looking at me in a certain way but i had men before mainly because i have kept a knife in my boobs once and we hugged and it's all cut.

55:54Ben Mandelker: But it's not my fault. Maybe they thought I'm more like this, but I'm more like that. More like a little bit of up and not a little bit of down. A little bit of left and a little bit more right. I don't know. Sorry. Not sorry. So now everybody goes to dance except for K.O. and Lawrence, who don't dance. So now it's time to... I've seen a movie Jesus made about a town without dancing. It was my favorite movie ever. The ending sucked, though. Tell you that. listen, I don't want to be dancing when the rapture happens. I'm just going to stand very still. Otherwise, the spotlight might miss me. So now they go back, and Laurence, Kao, and Fraser go right to bed, and everyone else is going to the hot tub.

56:39So Celine is talking to Damo and Kyle, and she's like, do you enjoy your work? Do you enjoy it? You know you probably do, because there's no poo-poo. You don't have to work poo-poo, huh?

56:49Ben Mandelker: No. yes we love our job by the way our job is the best we go monkey see monkey do and she and the dama's like yeah we are package deal and then they kind of like cuddle in the hot tub did you notice that yeah and i mean of course you notice that the guys both like cuddle together he's like we're a team i'm like this is gonna this is gonna get up to some funny business very soon i'm telling you fingers crossed so Rainbow is talking to Jess about how she likes Damo but she's not sure and she had more fun with Kyle but she's open to anything so then back with them, Kyle gets out of the hot tub to smoke so Celine's like, give me my glass, give me a kiss here only on cheek only on cheek I say, not on my face only on cheek you give me a kiss okay, and Kyle's like, well I want to kiss there later on though and she's like in me lips like yeah just all be careful I hurt men I man hurt yeah so basically Kyle was flirting with her but now Damo's flirting with her and then he's like okay I'm Kyle's like okay the door is your lad how to remove myself from the situation good luck bro so then it looks like Damo and Selene are about to go hook up but they actually don't and so now it's the next day and Barbara is asking Soleil what happened.

58:10Ben Mandelker: He's like, oh, he kissed me but like, whatever. And so now Kyle's happy because he's still in the running. Yeah. So she's like, well, the Scottish guy, I feel of course about Dama now because his kiss. And Fraser's like, oh, he kissed your leg. So then Kyle and Dama were talking about it and he's like, did you get in, bro? Not even close. Well, I knew I was on, but then you did that and I said, I'm out. He's like, oh, don't do that. He's like, I don't mind. But next time, fuck off. I didn't really understand what was on. He's like, I gave her to you this time, but next time she's mine. There was like some weird, like, fighting over girls like their property.

58:53You know how it goes.

58:54Ben Mandelker: It's a blow deck. All right, everyone. Let's have a, let's have a meeting. All right. Thanks, everyone. I know you're busy. I know you've got stuff to do. As I'm sure everyone's aware, Lawrence will be leaving us in a couple of days to go on a new boat called the SS Pussyface. Anyway, we have another chef coming in today, and I was able to reach out to a friend of mine to come in, and the chef's going to be Anthony from last season. So if anyone wants some mediocre food and a very messy galley, congratulations. That's what we have. Blame Fraser. If anyone can support Anthony, I really appreciate it.

59:24Oh, please give him plenty of hog support and possibly medications. Okay. He'll need them. So good luck. So Anthony is like, oh, guess who's back this season, baby? Frenchie is back in the game again. It's me, Alan Cummingface. It's a redemption. I'm not a loser. I can be a winner. And I can make my family proud. Finally, my chance to make my family proud. Oh, my God. I can't do this. I can't do it. I can't do it. I feel myself failing already.

59:54Ben Mandelker: My facial hair is more manicured than ever. Brows thinner. Thinner than the thinnest line you've ever seen in your life. And the food, delicious. So, it's good to see you. Looks great. Those eyebrows. Love it. Reminds me of Betty Davis. You're doing great work there. He's like, thank you. It's been really good to be home. I'm ready to be fresh and happy. Well, it's been an intense chatter. We'll do preference meeting a little bit later. And Orange is going to stay on. And he's going to cry and cry and cry. And you just make him some soup and make him feel better. So Kyle tells Fraser that Tony's here.

1:00:28And he's like, oh, my God, I can't believe it. Anthony and I are like brothers. We get along incredibly well. him leaving last year was absolutely heart-wrenching and by that i mean extremely entertaining and

1:00:40Ben Mandelker: power-filling well coming back to the boat i have different emotion inside me i love fraser but i was feeling maybe fraser betrayed me because barbie told me so and i need to find the right moment to talk about my feeling with fraser to put everything on the table because as everyone knows i'm a very confrontational person who is really good at yelling at people And then 16 days later, Fraser... No, chef, no. Don't fuck with me and my emotions. I did bring you here to work with you. I don't care what any podcaster says, because you're one of my favorite people here to work with. I didn't get you fired.
