#3001 Below Deck S12E16 Part Two: French Disconnection

In short

Below Deck S12E16 Part Two recap focused on the final bridge crossing, drop-off day celebrations, and the fallout from late-season hookups and relationship tensions (“French Disconnection”).

Guest backgrounds

No guests are interviewed; this is a recap episode by hosts Kat and Nat (with comedic commentary). On-boat cast referenced includes Fraser, Captain Kerry, Jess, Rainbow, Barbara, Solaine, Kyle, Hugo, Damo, Anthony, Selena, Lane, and others.

Key claims

The bridge crossing is treated as the season’s biggest risk; Solane’s heavy drinking leaves her unavailable for goodbye; Jess and Barbara’s romantic/relationship dynamics sour; Selena’s dislike of children and ongoing crew/guest friction continue; Kyle is repeatedly betrayed by hookups; Solaine and Demo hook up, and Selene/Rainbow conflict ends with no real apology.

Notable examples

Lube on the floor after sex; Rainbow refusing Selene’s apologies; Jess confronting Barbara about trust issues; Captain Kerry’s “penis in the bottle” joke during tips/closing.

2:50Ronnie Karam: so uh fraser wakes up and gets all these texts and he's like i woke up to a three page long letter from rain bale i understand the frustration i really do but what do you want me to do no one's getting fired on drop-off day all right shut up no one likes in other words no one likes a tattle darling no one likes a tattle and apparently no one likes a simple short haircut apparently you to get a bob these days to be taken seriously but if it's a bob they need it's a barbell i shall receive so okay guys it is time for lifting the anchor and going to the yacht club i'll do so five minutes from the bridge five minutes from the bridge this is the moment where everything can go wrong going through that bridge we could lose hands we could lose heads we've started with eight women we want to end with eight women i've been through that bridge and we've lost women to A giant octopus coming out and grabbing the women.

3:50Ronnie Karam: Everybody get to their stations. Pay attention. We could all die. Kathy's like, wow, it really is a small bridge. I mean, I don't think I could even drive my car through this without banging the sides of it. Kathy, that's because you're a terrible driver. I hate to bring it up to you, but none of us feel safe when you drive your Volvo around. Well, I wish you would have told me that not on camera. Thanks a lot. Yeah, you know, it would be really hard for me to make it through that bridge, especially after a night of not even tasting mushrooms. It's just all over the place. All over the place. Shut up, Kathy.

4:24Ronnie Karam: They got that on camera, right? All season, I've been nervous about this bridge. It doesn't get easier. But the deck team this season is the best deck team I've ever had. Really? Because it hasn't looked like it. He's like, didn't one of them just drop the shackle too much last week? Jess Jess Oh, consequences So they get through the bridge Listen, if Captain Carrey still has to pay attention to that damn bridge All the way to the very end of the season So Lane should be caring about cleaning the puddles on the bar So they pack up their bags And now they're excited for a drop-off And then Fraser's like Rainbow, I'm sorry you had a rough night, you know So, by the way, Solane is, oh, she's still in bed, passed out because she was drinking too heavily last night.

5:19Classic Solane. Okay, wake her up so I can not reprimand her and get her to say goodbye to the guests. All right.

5:26Ronnie Karam: Today's about celebrating the people who have worked the hardest. Let's have a good night. Be positive, Rainbow. Be positive, my little tattle-tale-tale. So now it's work, work, work. And everyone changes into their whites. The guests say their goodbyes as they do. And Rainbow has my favorite wave. She waves like this. She's like, ugh, bye. Like you're saying, no more. I don't want any more of you. She's like, bye-bye, ta-ta, ta-ta now. A vertical wave. Yeah. You're flapping your hand. I didn't notice that. That's hilarious. So Hugo checks in with Jess about how she feels about the end of the season.

6:03Ronnie Karam: She's like, I did not expect the season to go the way that it did. I had such a good time here. but I need to speak to Barbara and see about the consequences of my actions. He's like, oh God. So you're going to go talk to her about going to visit her? You better make sure it's safe. It's New York City. I'm excited about the idea of going to New York because, I mean, Barbara's really cool and I hear there's a whole bunch of really hot lesbians up there too. So I'm enjoying her company and for me, I always look for a partner, someone who likes children because that's what I want one day, to be treated like the child that I am.

6:41And Barbara's got, like, she just loves children, and I'm not saying that's the plan, but I'm going to say that that's the plan. It's that way it makes me seem more mature, even though I'm still a very immature young fuck lady.

6:53Ronnie Karam: Holy lesbian, Batman. Can you calm down? You're talking about having children with Barbara? Barbara? No, not much. Come on, calm down, okay? Calm down, you. So now it's chip meeting time and Kerry comes in like, we fucking made it right. We could have all died on that one, but we didn't. We're still here. At the start of the season, there were some kinks, all right? Mostly people peeing on each other in bathrooms, banging on the ground, guys sleeping naked and waving their weaners at the camera crew, which is still kind of creepy. By the way, neither you, Damo or Kyle, are allowed within 30 metres of schools or churches for the next few years.

7:34Ronnie Karam: That said, unlike the jock straps on this boat, this envelope is thick and full. All right? It's a really fit envelope. I'm impressed with it. Kyle, oh, Kyle, could you please stop having sex with the envelope? Sorry, Captain. So they got a big... I'm in love with it. I think I might be in love with it. Emotions get involved. I can't help it. This envelope stuck my penis in it. I did it. All right, Anthony. We had the opportunity to bring you back. And let me just say, I have never seen smaller jeans. I didn't even know they created that size. I mean, it looks like you're wrapped in a cigarette wrapper.

8:17Ronnie Karam: All right. Good for you. Good for you. Strong knees. Strong knees, tiny legs. I'd like to congratulate you on your thigh gap. All right, everybody, round of applause for Anthony's thigh gap. And he's like, thank you, Daddy. Thank you, daddy. This is for you. All right. Here's your tip money. And now afterwards, we're going to go slam these drinks. And then we're going to go ahead to Fort Louis to have some more celebratory drinks. And then we'll come back. So Lane's going to make her rounds with everyone. And then we'll get changed and go out for dinner. All right. All right, everybody. Cheese guys.

8:52Ronnie Karam: So now everybody changes and gets ready for their excursion. and um I don't know just this usually they try and make it look kind of glamorous you know they're like oh yeah putting on mascara ooh look at this beautiful tight dress you know and they do a slow motion with lights kind of flashing as people get ready and today they just showed Jess like running her her like brush through her hair very slowly it was like brushing my hair very slowly Oh, the glamour, the glamour of it all. I hope this brush likes children. So now they're going to go out to this fort on top of a mountain. And Damo's like, this is the longest I've worn shoes in six weeks and my feet are hurting.

9:40He's like, oh, yeah, it's great. It's great. And then Anthony's like, Fraser, I want to tell you something. I'm glad you have my back. I'm very proud of us and I really love you. It was an amazing season. He's like, oh, and I love you so very much. I'm so sad this will be the last I ever speak of you because I put in my time preparing my reputation with you. And now that is done. So we no longer have to pretend to be friends. Okay, goodbye.

10:04Ronnie Karam: I would like a congratulations for not trying to get you fired this season. But where will you be working on your next vote? Because God, I miss trying to get you fired. I'll be making some calls. I'll be making some calls. Meanwhile, Jess is talking about how she wants babies with Barbara. But Barbara is talking to Celine about how she doesn't think that there's anything worth pursuing with Jess, which is quite a turn. So then Fraser is congratulating himself again for not firing Anthony. And they're doing this joint confessional thing where they're like, oh, my God, look at us, best friends.

10:40Ronnie Karam: And I know Barbie sitting at home like, oh, this idiot. This idiot didn't listen to a thing I told him. That's exactly correct. So they get to the top of this mountain. They go to the fort. It's beautiful. And now they come back down. And the crew, they go to the yacht to get ready for dinner. So they got ready to go to the fort. Why do they always have to climb things on this show? Like, why does Below Deck insist on making people climb up mountains? Is that just something they're like, you know what? America really wants to see people climbing up mountains. That's just a thing. It's just a thing they love in that country.

11:14Ronnie Karam: Okay? So we're going to climb up a hill. Very steep hill. And then they get up there and they go, woo. and then they have like some some you know flying shots or whatever drone shots and you know i don't know it doesn't really do much for me and they always go up to forts old forts and ruins all the time it's like oh actually i shouldn't say that because there was on down under last season they did get to uh pet a turtle but that's because i don't think there was anything else to do with the seychelles they went to that tortoise sanctuary a lot like here we are here we go again turtles every other episode.

11:47Yeah, that was a big moment. Stanley the Tortoise. Every episode was that tortoise. Yeah. My parents went to the Seychelles on a cruise over the summer and I was like, did you see the tortoise? They're like, how did you know? I was like, tortoise.

12:03Ronnie Karam: That's literally all you get to do. You stay at a hotel in the Seychelles and you walk into your room and the TV's on and it's like, come, have breakfast with the tortoise. And then at nighttime, we have dancing by the pool with the tortoise. Enjoy some Seychelles rum with the tortoise. We are offering complimentary tortoise massage. We let a tortoise walk all over your back. Don't worry, it is outfitted with a diaper. Hey, come get out of your shell with the tortoise. Tortoise yoga starts every morning at 7 a.m. it is basically you sit in a chair and you watch a tortoise do yoga it's it's quite a sight so we go to dinner and jess is sitting with barbara and jess is like so what's your plan this evening she's like i'm all quiet today because i'm sad to be honest i think i realized that i've got a lot of traumas and oh you think so yes i think so for example my last relationship she cheated on me and she goes oh so this is the issues you're struggling with is it trust you fucked someone in the shower a week ago well while have after having like insisted and persisted to hound barbara to date you and you finally got her to to kiss you and then you immediately fucked selena in the shower so yeah trust issues may also be here and And by the way, Barbara, sorry, like we love like Barbara to me is my favorite of the entire season.

13:37I love Barbara. But like, come on, you've got trust issues. Like actually pay attention to your trust issues. Like in this case, like your trust issues are really doing you a service with with Jess. Like, why? Why are you messing with this girl?

13:50Ronnie Karam: I think that sometimes people. Yeah, we tell ourselves like, oh, my God, there must be something wrong with me. I've got trust issues. No, you're just with an untrustworthy person. That's not an issue within yourself. that's actually a good instinct you know it's not always something you need to fix in therapy if you've got trust issues you need to not be around the people you're around because they're giving you reasons not to trust them barbara ron barbara and then just doesn't really get it because she's like you know barbara's saying i don't to be honest i don't i'm not a long distance kind of a person i don't think that makes sense i would never do it and just is not getting it at all she's like yes it's so hard to find people to trust in and then you know sometimes you think you did find that person, you know?

14:32Ronnie Karam: No, it's not you. It's not you, lady, looking for a free place to stay for two months. Move along. Move along. Move along, please. So now everyone orders dinner and Fraser's like, okay, oh my goodness, there's a child that's crying somewhere. Someone tell that child to give it a break. And Selena's like, oh, motherfucker, I hate children. Oh, no. And you know Rainbow was probably sitting there being like, come on, Rainbow, you've got 0.3 seconds to come up with a diss to Selene saying that she's a child. You can form this together. Come on, Rainbow. Damn it, though, I lost my window. So, sir, are you going to do another season on a boat?

15:10Ronnie Karam: Oh, I want to try deckhand, slash masseuse, slash barmaid. You know, this thing, slash I'm not a champion. And he goes like, oh, that's too many slash. That's too many slash. Nailed it. Well, we only have one last night together, so after we're not going to see each other again, Kyle. Because Selene and Kyle are having a smoke break and Kyle's like, no, I'd like to see her again. I would like to see her again. If I come to the UK, I'll come on down to France and I'll say hello. I will, of course. I would actually like that, yeah? I like that a lot. Oh, to see me again? Yeah, because I hear the bathroom floors in France are quite clean.

15:49So, I don't know. Maybe I'll come visit you down there.

15:52Ronnie Karam: and uh he's like well what would you like first of all i don't think that that was really romantic it's just like yeah you know i want to see you sure if i'm ever in the uk i'll come down and bang you so how about you how are you feeling about this and she's like no you know i like just you know to move to see someone maybe not maybe no and he's like but oh well then tonight's our last night eh and then we go home and then we're done she's like yeah it's strange No, very, very strange. So that's not going anywhere. Not that anybody's surprised. But usually at the end of these shows, they at least pretend.

16:29Ronnie Karam: They're like, oh, my God, I can't wait to see you. We're going to make this work. Because I think it's important that in six months we get the update where it's like they cheated on each other and they were miserable. I mean, we need that on this show. Yeah, I think so. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Crappins commercial.

16:52This is Becca and Tanya from Scrubbing In with Becca Tilly and Tanya Rad. Becca, can I ask you a question? How do I convince myself I need something before I buy it?

18:31So now they go to a club, and they dance, and it's hot, and it's sweaty, and then Damo makes his move on Salane, and they make out in the club, and Kyle watches and he's sad. He's a sad Kyle. And then Demo's like, stay away from me because I'm bad people. No, I don't have problem with bad people. So he tells us this. He goes, I'm not a good person. Everything I do is motivated by myself.

19:00Ronnie Karam: Yeah, we know. We've watched you. And he does it with a huge smile on his face. He's one of those that's like, aren't I charming that I'm so honest with you? Not really. He's like, I'm a shitty person. Yeah, we know. Well, it's also that like that performative, almost like low self-esteem thing. It's like, how many movies have we seen where there's a tortured bully who's like, don't love me. I'm a bad person. I'm bad. That's what I do. I'm bad, damn it. I'm bad. Okay, I don't have any love to give. Stop trying to crack this nut. Okay, relax, Judd Nelson. Yeah, but he just loves, he's like, I love being a bad person.

19:37Ronnie Karam: He's like, I try to be a good friend, but I'm not that good of a friend, period. And you're not going to say no to slang. I mean, fuck it. She's going to be kissing someone. Why not me? Sure. So then they go back and Kyle's really sad about this. He's so sad because the love of his life just was making out with Demo. And Kyle is there in the taxis and Kyle's like, I've never seen Fraser so drunk in my life. Because Demo's also making out with Fraser. And I personally as a gay, I resent, and I don't know if we'll have the same opinion on this or not but i resent that the producers didn't even bother giving us um a fraser fraser feeling like being toyed with gay storyline they started like they kind of introduced it earlier in the season i don't know did they abandon it or whatever but like fraser's a fan bot he doesn't have any emotions the only time he ever cries is when someone tells him he did a good job making a bed.

20:37Ronnie Karam: Then he's like, yeah, I'm working so hard for this. But otherwise, he's just like, yes, I'm feeling things. Feeling things for Damo. I just feel like they put us through this whole rigmarole of like, is he gay? Is he not gay? And Damo's like, well, sometimes I'm sort of gay. And then Fraser breaks up with his boyfriend. She's like, okay, let's see what's going to happen here. And then they just abandon it. And then there's like one kiss at the end of the season. I'm like, I would have liked a queer baiting storyline personally, I would have enjoyed seeing that because it's different than what we normally see.

21:11Although this did happen. This does seem to happen to Fraser every season, now that I think about it.

21:15Ronnie Karam: Yeah, and I think we all know. I mean, Fraser's been around the block enough times to know a demo or two. You know, we all know the demos. It's like the girls on the shows who are like, oh my God, let's make out with each other to turn guys on. You know, guys do kind of the same thing. I don't think it turns girls on, but they have that like, yeah, I'm going to make it with a gay guy. Yeah, let's see. They just have that desperation to feel like someone's attracted to them, you know, because Damo came on this thinking he was going to be like the stud of the season. And really, nobody wanted Damo, you know, like he tried it with Rainbow.

21:49Ronnie Karam: That was a fish kiss. You know, that was a bad kiss on both their parts. He tried it with Soleim. She ended up going to like nine other people before even considering him. So I think he was just like, you know, I've the guy I can get the gay guy to like me. You know, did you see? Charlie Sheen talking about like how he fooled around with guys when he was on crack and he was like I think that that's kind of a normal thing and wasn't it meth? Why does he keep saying crack? I'm sure there was some meth in there. I just liked it. He said the quote that I read was him saying like yeah some of it was weird but I gotta tell you they had some fucking great times.

22:31It was fucking awesome. I was like thank you. Thank you Charlie. Charlie Sheen's disgusting. Enjoying our world.

22:39Ronnie Karam: Enjoying our world where you're cracked out of your mind. Spreading God knows what to who. Like, gross. No, I'm not going to give that man one ounce of my attention. No, thank you. I see clips of it posted, and I'm like, no. And then I saw one of Denise Richards crying. So I was like, oh, my God, what's she crying about? So I clicked on it, and she's like, oh, Charlie. And I was like, no, I'm not going to. I'm not even going to listen to you cry about Charlie. No, no. Just say no to Charlie Sheen. What a despicable little rat. I'm going to tie this all together, which was, I watched about half of Watch What Happens Live last night because our friend Michelle was on as a guest, which is always lovely to see her.

23:16And Brooke Williamson was the bartender and she had made some food from her new cookbook. She's like, oh, these are some of my favorite things. And this is like a fig, prosciutto, whatever, something, another. And I was like, you know what, Brooke? Let's change it up, okay? Because we watched you make that with Denise Richards. You're on Watch Happens Live now. We needed a fresh recipe. Did she?

23:40Ronnie Karam: She burned. She had already burned on Bravo. Weird, Brooke. Remember she made the fig thing with Denise Richards? With the pepper or something? I think it's the Bobby Flay influence. Where he's just like, you know what? I'm going to go and I'm going to make a steak everywhere I go. I'm just going to put a steak on a grill. Come on, Brooke. Raise your game. a little bit. Yeah. So, yeah, come on, Brooke. The real, somehow, somehow this all comes out to me just coming, coming after Brooke Williamson. Kyle is, they're in the vans, they're heading back and they're just like talking about all this stuff.

24:16And so, Selena's saying, Hugo, Hugo's like, oh, hey, I saw you, Selena, kiss Damo tonight. And she's like, yes. It's like, well, and he's like, why you'll do that to Kyle? Why you'll do that to him? She's like, he's not so bad. Yeah, but you're not married together. But I mean, it's not fair. I mean, what I want to know, this guy's amazing. Do not hurt this poor man. Look, don't hurt this poor man who has condom on his back because he just bangs someone in a bathroom stall.

24:44Ronnie Karam: I can't. Yeah, it's like, don't hurt poor Kyle. He's already fucked two people this season. Kyle's fine. Okay, Kyle's fine. And he's like, all this well, brother. Don't worry about me. Three, that's true. Yeah, that's true. so um and then it's uh they're back at the yacht and solane is asking kyle if he's mad at her and he's like no i'm not mad at you i don't care what you do live your life you can do what you want and she's like ah you don't care then he's like well i do care about it you know that's obviously you know i care too much and she's like voila voila okay whatever whatever so of course now she's going to go bang demo because he's saying he doesn't care so so demo goes for it and uh they go have a cigarette break on the deck and do some flirting and they kiss and she says but you know i like scottish and he's like well so if you like scottish why do you keep kissing me and she's like maybe i like you too because if i kiss you now do you think it would be fair on scottish and he's like yeah that would be fair he knows the game and so they make out yeah and then kyle texts lane he's like you played me so bad it's horrible and she's like oh okay you want to have sex now okay so then they go and have sex so then now is the next morning and uh now and fraser walks into their guest room and there's like lube on the floor he's like oh my god disgusting lube on the floor.

26:15What were those theses for ultra-ribbed? Well, congratulations for staying safe, making one good decision in your life.

26:24Ronnie Karam: So now Solaine is like, Rainbow, you finished back? Can I speak with you? And she's like, okay, bro. I just wanted to tell you maybe sorry or so. So sorry, so, so sorry. And she goes, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And to another sorry? Are you sorry? You're sorry? No, no. You're not sorry. And Rainbow goes, no. Mm-mm. No, I'm not sorry. So Selene is basically not let off the hook. Selene's trying to do that thing where she's like, I was shitty all season and I was shitty to your face, but you, like, I'm going to be nice and I'm going to say sorry and I'm going to get away with it. And Rainbow's like, no, no.

27:08Ronnie Karam: She's just looking at her like, fuck off. Selene says, you was very bad with me. You treat me like I'm children. I tried to be polite, but you are not, so okay. And Sully just keeps staring at her, and she goes, yeah, I can't say I'm sorry. No, I'm not sorry anymore. Okay, well, then, no, I'm genuinely not sorry, too. Good. Cool, then. Yeah, so no resolution there. And then we now have the slow march of maids going off the boat. So the experience has been life changing with the guests, with the crew, with the personal growth that other people had. But I didn't. I have feelings for Barbara for sure.

27:48I like her. And saying goodbye is really hard. But it is the consequences of my action.

27:57Ronnie Karam: Thankfully, they made this section shorter than usual because usually this is the entire end of the, you know, this is the tire. the entire final episode is usually like someone packing a backpack and then they hug every single person on the boat and then they talk about their daddy issues for half an hour and then they walk slowly down the aisle. And this one was good because they were just like, okay, Rainbow's gone now, Jess is gone now. And Kyle gets a moment with Captain Carrie and he's like, thank you for everything you've done. I've learned a lot from you, mate. A hell of a lot. He's like, well, I'd love to see you get more experience with widowers, or sorry, future widowers, but you know, there's a thing about working hard and partying hard, but you may miss opportunities in the future if you can't keep your penis in your pants and the wine in the bottles, you know what I'm saying?

28:46Ronnie Karam: He's like, so stick my wine in this bottle? Alright, get your dick out of the bottle. Alright, it's stuck. Alright, medics, Carla's stuck his penis in the bottle and can't get it out. Alright, please leave. Please just leave. You know, from walking on to St. David last year and not even known what the fuck Hashami was. I've learned a lot about myself without a doubt. Done some things this year that I'm not proud of and I've learned that from now that I've come back with vengeance and I can do it even better. And they give it, they show this all these scenes. It's like they're treating it like we're watching like boyhood part two.

29:21Like we don't need the sequence of this like messy, sloppy, sad man who like banged Barbie last year, banged to solane this year and helene helen and a lady in the bathroom i'm like i don't need any sentimental recap on kyle's journey there's been no journey he's just gone from wart to wart yeah not the warts i'm just saying he has the warts he is a wart filled person on a wart journey that's what i am saying uh so then damo and he are saying goodbye and they're sitting

29:54Ronnie Karam: together in the confessional and Damo's like, oh, I shouldn't have kissed Elaine. I'm not sorry. He goes, yeah, don't be sorry. Sorry? Yeah, don't be sorry. He goes, yeah, I'm not. Yeah, I'm saying you don't have to be. Good, because I'm not. God, just shut up, Damo. You're such an asshole. You're supposed to be his best friend. You suck. Yeah, he's shitty. So then Anthony's like, honestly, when I came back, I was not sure I could do it, but I killed it. Anthony, you already had your goodbye monologue five different times this episode. You don't get to have another one okay we get it you weren't sure you came back you did it for daddy and you were much better this time we get it but now i have wings and i am ready to fly please do just please fly so then carrie is like oh god what a pleasure having you on board uh oh this was with hugo it took a lot of pressure off of me it shows you're gonna go very long way in this industry, the way that you just ignored logging the boat for two hours in a row, which you did, like, literally yesterday.

30:56Ronnie Karam: But God damn it, you're amazing. I love you. Goodbye. Thanks, Captain. Thanks so much. You've already given me this pamphlet, actually. You can take this. Go ahead and keep it. You never know when that's going to make some good reading. All right, Fraser. What a season, eh? He's like, but thank you for everything. I'm so grateful for everything you've taught me and that you teach me and I just really appreciate it because I'm really proud of this season and I'm just giving you something that you can say back to me as proof that you're proud too. I'm proud of you too mate. Last season you did well, this season you did even better.

31:32You didn't come to me because you didn't know what to do, you only came to me to bounce things off of me and it was awesome. Although I did think it was weird when you literally threw a spoon at my chest and said let's see if this bounces. Not the kind of bouncing I'm really looking for. But anyway, had some challenges this season, but you're the one who brought yourself back. It was all you and you should be proud of yourself.

31:52Ronnie Karam: But while we're talking about bouncing things off of things, I wish you would run this bob by me because I'm not really sure how that's going to work out for you. But you know what? You do you. You're a big boy. He's like, alright, thank you. I will cry a little bit because you've just complimented me. So, hold on, let me cry some tears. I just love what I do. I was tired to do a job and i came and i did the job and i really trust myself and that means so much to me hold on tears will come any moment they're coming are they there are they coming all right have you closed up on my bob have you all right is it working how's my q rating how's my q rating all right thank you it's a beautiful bob come on focus and that was the end so i'm happy to put that season to bed but i'm so excited for med i'm always excited for fresh med looks like a repeat of this season honestly it looks like another one they're like oh my god here's a girl who's who's vowing to fuck everybody on the boat and then you know here's all the guys hoeing around it's like oh god so it looks like we're have another season of this.

33:06And we've had hoey seasons before, but this one to me just did not work.

33:10Ronnie Karam: They can't be all about that. It needs to be mixed in with everything else. They need balance. We need some balance in the hoedum, guys. Yeah, we need a balanced ho situation. But that being said, I'm resetting and I'm ready for the med. I'm not down on below deck. I just thought the season was a misstep for them.

37:47The best memories come from stepping outside of your little bubble and being open to the unexpected. and what better way to be open to the unexpected than finally booking that trip to Europe. You guys know I'm a Delta girly. Every time I go, I get my Delta headphones and when I fly to Europe, Delta treats me like a queen and they'll treat you too. I was always a little nervous about navigating a foreign country, but then I realized it's so important to grow and see different cultures and to put yourself in different situations and Delta held my hand the whole time. Being away just helps you put life into perspective and your little worries are not so bad.

38:27Travel really is the best way to discover something new about yourself and grow from the experience. Step outside your comfort zone this summer, get some Delta headphones and fly with Delta Airlines. They truly are the best way to get to Europe and they just make the whole journey feel so comfortable and seamless. Go book your next chapter right now at delta.com.
