Tensions on Below Deck Down Under S04E17 Part Two escalate around service mistakes, comment cards, and Ben’s ongoing conflict with Chief Stew Daisy—culminating in Ben sleeping in a guest cabin and a confrontation that disrupts the next charter’s readiness.
No podcast guests are mentioned; the episode is a recap/discussion of the TV show. Recurring “guest”/cast references include crew members (Daisy, Joao, Ben, Ellie, Barbie, Jenna, Jason, Eddie, Alicia, Joelle, Eddie, Batula, etc.) and returning charter guest “Brandon” (from Below Deck nuisance; also referenced as appearing on Potomac).
Ben undermines Daisy and resists her authority; Daisy’s frustration is tied to professional consequences (Ellie’s potential promotion to sous chef). Ben’s behavior is framed as unprofessional and possibly sexist/condescending. Joao positions himself as an ally to Daisy and intervenes when Ben violates cabin/bed protocols.
Hot tub filled too hot; lobster salad order priority ignored; “too many requests” remark sparks Daisy’s anger; Ben blocks Barbie from delivering comment cards; Ben sleeps on an unmade guest bed; Joao wakes Ben and forces him out, leading to a heated exchange.

0:30Ronnie Karam: This episode is sponsored by Klarna. You know when you buy something practical like groceries, plane tickets, or honestly, I just did a whole, I need a new summer clothes because apparently none of last year's clothes survived my emotional support snacking era situation. And you realize you're not thinking about what you're buying, but how you're paying for it.
0:48Ben Mandelker: I've actually been using Klarna for that because it gives you options. You can pay now, later, or over time depending on how you want to handle it. Sometimes I'll split something into a few payments so I don't have to deal with it all at once. And I like that. You know, I like that everything's super clear in the app. You always know what you owe and when. So there aren't weird surprises.
1:06Ronnie Karam: And it's not just for huge purchases either. I've used it for everyday stuff. And you can even get cash back and deals in the Klarna app, which honestly feels like kind of a smarter way to handle spending day to day. Less pressure, more flexibility.

1:53Ben Mandelker: Who cares what happens when there's so much that happens?
2:23Ben Mandelker: And she's basically, I guess, asking about lunch or something. And the radio is off. And then Daisy's like, all guests are at the table. Because Ellie turns on her radio and she's like, Daisy? Daisy Galley? What's the update on the guests? Even though Daisy just gave the update. But the radio was off. Now she's acting as if Daisy wasn't doing her job.
2:48Ronnie Karam: Yeah, she's like, well, I'll be down in a minute. Don't you worry about it. We can start right now. Meanwhile, the guests put their feet in the hot tub, and they're like, oh, my God, we said cold. This is hot. This is hot water. Okay, so you overflowed it, and you turned on the wrong temperature on the water. Come on. So now some food is coming and drink orders, all that stuff. So Ben is in the galley, and he's like, why are they not taking the lobster salad? Guys, radio, radio, guys, guys, you need to take the lobster salad. It goes first. It's a salad. Now he's like, exactly.
3:24Ben Mandelker: So Daisy, who's so annoyed because of all this radio stuff, goes, Yeah, well, if you want to do it, you can bring it up yourself. We'll get your assistant to bring it up. Which does not feel professional on Daisy's part, but it was very funny.
3:38Ronnie Karam: And they all hear it on the radio. And Joelle's like, Oh, that's not going to be good. And Jason's like, That's not good. So now in the galley, Ben's like, What the fuck is her problem? She spoke to me like, It's my fault.
3:52Ben Mandelker: Well, I hate the way they speak to me on the radio. Like I'm doing nothing. It really drives me mad.
3:58Ronnie Karam: Well, it's not my department, because if it was my department, we would have our shit together.
4:04Ben Mandelker: It's not my fault, because I made the lobster salad. It's your fault, because you want to eat eggs too. So Ellie starts to bring up the food, and then she's like, where are the girls? Not a single person is here. So she presents the food, and they're all so happy. They're like, oh my God, it's Ellie. Ellie, save us from the hot jacuzzi water, please. Oh my god
4:24Ronnie Karam: I cannot do that I cannot save anybody from incompetence We are drowning in incompetence Did they fill the hot tub up with incompetence Because they are basically marinating in it right now Questionable
4:40Ben Mandelker: So then Jenna and Dan
4:42Ronnie Karam: Am I responsible for hot tub being hot? Questionable
4:48Ben Mandelker: So meanwhile Daisy and Jenna are just like making fun of Ellie
4:51Ronnie Karam: like, oh wow, I made a sushi. I'm so excited.
4:56Ben Mandelker: And Ellie is like, well, Ben, guess what? They said the sushi deserve multiple Michelin stars. I'm like, ooh, yes, this California roll and this spicy tuna roll, I mean, go... Ben and Ellie might as well just enroll in the Boku store at this point.
5:15Ronnie Karam: Well, to be fair, I don't know how many Michelin starred restaurants they've been to when they can't fillet a fish. Still really worked up on that one. So it's anchor time, lifting up the anchor. There's comment cards they have to fill out. And Ellie's like, I hope Barbie gets a promotion. That would be great. She's been here five minutes. She deserves.
5:35Ben Mandelker: It would really ruffle a few feathers, you know, as Chief Sue, Daisy can't be promoted, so I think we should demote her, and then she might try harder. And they're like, ha ha ha ha. Ha ha ha ha. Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha.
5:51Ronnie Karam: Oh, yeah. So, Joao hears this because he's walking by and he's like, oh, fuck. I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. Me being friends with Ben and I have feelings for Daisy. So trying to navigate with two very hard-headed people, it's a tough zim. It's a real tough zim. So now the boat's docked and everybody has to, you know, go smile. And then they're saying bye and they get a tip. and we don't get a gardening exit. I thought it was going to be like, guys, you know, in my line of work, you plant some seeds, you wait for him to spout, then you shape him into a penguin. And that's what you guys did to my spirit.
6:33Ronnie Karam: So here, you deserve all of this. You deserve all of that.
6:37Ben Mandelker: Or maybe, in my line of work, we see a lot of hoes, but I can assure you that you are all top of the year I don't know I really peaked when I said the hose joke and then I didn't really know where to go with it because you know we're gardeners basically and so hose is what you use to till the soil yeah we get it thank you so much for the tip
7:03Ronnie Karam: so Jason is reading the comment cards and they're good overall 5 stars incredible team dining experience 5 stars amazing genuinely such a talent. I'm going to work in a hose joke later. I'm giving that five stars before I even make it. Pretty good. Pretty good so far.
7:21Ben Mandelker: Wow. Wow. It worked out really well for us.
7:26Ben Mandelker: So tip meeting. Righto. Charter eight. Okay. So like you guys had all these great things, $23 ,000 and the helmet, Eddie, when you go out tonight, this is your time to keep this on your head. even though the helmet only comes down to basically your forehead line, but that's okay. You've got a very long head. Anyway, look, at the end of the day, you truly get nothing for nothing. And Jenna took the fall for a lot, and I know it wasn't just Jenna, and it takes a few to tango, but only one woman to get a demotion. So that's for sure. So, you, your career is impacted. You, you wear a goofy helmet.
8:07Ben Mandelker: There we go.
8:09Ronnie Karam: and it literally does not take a few to tingle. That's crazy. It's crazy talk. He's like, all right, we've got one more title left. You know, let's stop. You've got to stop thinking about girls. All right, Eddie, let's stop bringing our personal things into the workspace. And that's that. And then he's like, no new relationships anytime soon for this guy. You don't have to tell us.
8:33Ben Mandelker: I know, right? So then Jason's like, all right, you guys should actually be proud of yourselves, even though you had such a shitty charter I had to demote one of you right then before but anyway the charter starts tomorrow and we've got a 24 hour turnaround so let's hit the ground running no Alicia you don't have to actually get on your knees and slap the floor that's an expression hit the ground running okay she's slapping the floor and she's peddling her feet at the same time someone please help Alicia
9:01Ronnie Karam: seconds to seconds to I'm running towards the seconds to so Daisy's like all right interior team bring your drinks let's go to the cabins and so they get up and go and meanwhile ben's like i'm gonna read these comment cards this is a good one uh look at this without the crew this experience would not have been the same can you imagine just eight rogue charter
9:23Ben Mandelker: guests of course you need the crew idiots and daisy's like oh by the way can someone grab the comment cards for me barbie will you go down please so barbie goes to the main salon saying Hey guys, can I please take those? Ben's like, no, we're reading them She's like, so I tell Daisy no? He's like, yeah, that's right She had enough requests Tell her that, there's enough requests coming out of her This one's about Daisy, we'll hide this one
9:51Ronnie Karam: So she goes back and she tells her She's like, wait a minute He gave you pushback? You're fucking kidding me Well, they said that you had enough requests Oh, Jesus fucking Christ, I'm going down there So she storms down there It's like, can you please give me these for five minutes? I want to crack down with work, crack on with work, and then you can have them back, Ben. He's like, what do you think I want to do? Ben, can I please have them for five minutes? I'm sure you're not going to start working as fast as we are. I think we can all guarantee that.
10:19Ben Mandelker: Meanwhile, Joao's just sitting there. Joao, who's doing his whole, I'm caught between a rock and a hard place, when Ben is clearly being unprofessional here, and he's being really rude. And this is the point where Joao should step up and be like, Like, Ben, give her the comment cards. But Ben, you know. I'm glad you did.
10:37Ronnie Karam: Because I would have been like, no one needs you to cape here, buddy. No, it's not about caping.
10:43Ben Mandelker: It's not about caping. It's just all this bullshit of like, oh, I'm stuck in the middle. It's like, actually, or you can just do the right thing, which is be like, Ben, give her the cards. It doesn't even have to be a caping moment. It could be like, give her the cards, you know. But he doesn't because he's just being ridiculous about this whole thing. and Daisy is like, can I just have the cards? I just want to have the cards. I'm going to get back to work. And then Ben is like, no, no. Oh, this is about you. You're going to love it. She's like, you're back. Oh, yes, because I'm the MVP. Sorry, Daisy.
11:14Ben Mandelker: I was the MVP of the charter. He's taking like this victory lap because he like put out sushi and like whole fish that had to be massacred in order to be served.
11:24Ronnie Karam: She's like, well, that's shocking considering you weren't for the rest of the season. he's like well she thinks the world revolves around her and it doesn't last time i checked the boat was not called daisy that's a weird weird like oh the boat's called daisy so therefore we have to do everything the chief stew says now um yeah but like he but and yet the common theme
11:53Ben Mandelker: with Ben is that the world actually revolves around him he's so fragile he's so but I think
11:58Ronnie Karam: they're both ridiculous I think Daisy's just pissed off at Ben and so now she's gonna make an issue out of everything like every little thing is getting to her to a 10 you know and I don't really like who cares they're sitting up there having a little drink before they start work it's not like there's gonna be anything in the comment cards that's groundbreaking she can just get them after Ben and be like okay the comment card said do better on the bathrooms I mean it's not that maybe i think it's just a huge deal because ben she's just pissed at ben yeah well rightfully so because if he had said to barbie we're just finishing reading them and we'll bring them
12:32Ben Mandelker: down to daisy when we're done just give me like five minutes it would have been one thing but he says she's had too many requests and like i'm sorry i i have to imagine when you're a woman in a workplace and you're dealing with a pig like ben and you're dealing with this shit all the time And there's clearly like a boys club that's happening, you know, like where the guys get upset and her stew gets demoted, you know, things like that. And you're dealing with this as like, Oh, too many requests. It's like, shut the fuck up. You know what? Not only now, am I going to make the request to get the common cards?
13:02Ben Mandelker: I'm making it a priority because it's so condescending and so demeaning to be like too many requests out of her. That's such a loaded thing. I, I, I feel like that's such a loaded thing to say to a woman in the workplace because I just feel like women have had to deal with so much shit from us men all the time that I think Daisy has every right to be absolutely furious at Ben in that moment for saying that bullshit.
13:25Ronnie Karam: Yeah, but he has a right to be annoyed that he's sitting there reading comment cards and Daisy's like, go get the comment cards for me. They're mine. It's just weird. They're both acting like fucking children. And as far as the demotion thing, Daisy didn't stick up for that girl getting demoted either. So she's on my shit list for that too. So I think they're just both acting like babies. I'm certainly not going to say that sexism doesn't exist, especially in this industry and especially on this boat. Like Ben is a little shit, but I think he was just like, fuck her. Like, why does she get to boss me around?
13:53Ronnie Karam: It's like a little boy, you know, they're both. They're just both acting like children. And they shouldn't be acting like this to each other in front of the staff either. Both of them.
14:02Ben Mandelker: Well, maybe not.
14:03Ronnie Karam: If I was a parent, I'd be like, you both getting a way back.
14:06Ben Mandelker: But also Daisy was having a department meeting and she's like, I need to have the comment cards. so we can go through this and discuss. And now she sends Barbie to get the comment cards and Ben's like, no, no, no. Tell her there've been too many requests from her. It's like, bro, all that she did initially, yeah, all she did initially was say, can we have crew lunch at 11? And then that is what has set him off for the past 24 hours. And he's just got to get over it. And he really can't complain about requests when he's going to later on, as he has been all season, go take over one of the guest bedrooms.
14:43Ben Mandelker: I mean, talk about requests.
14:44Ronnie Karam: Oh, God. Every time.
14:45Ben Mandelker: So I just don't want to hear from you.
14:46Ronnie Karam: He's a fucking baby. So Daisy's pissed, obviously. And Alicia's like, why would he not give them to you? She's like, because I asked. It's just a pushback all the time. Well, I love how she wanted to take them the first time we ever got a fucking mention. God, she wanted to take away my, basically, this is a Tony Award for being on a ship. someone likes the breakfast turkey rolls how dare they always talk about the food and i like ellie
15:16Ben Mandelker: goes yeah i mean you're not the general manager hotel manager chill out good hotel general
15:24Ronnie Karam: manager zing i love i love that little bit of history for ellie like you know that ellie the law was really laid down for ellie in some hotel somewhere the general manager was like Listen here, old lady, I'm a hotel manager, and I'm not taking a shit from you.
15:39Ben Mandelker: Who do you think you are, Bob Newhart in Vermont? Come on.
15:44Ronnie Karam: What, are you going to wake up and it's all been a dream? Well, thank you for wasting eight years of my life.
15:50Ben Mandelker: Okay, well, let me be chill out, Hector Elizondo in Pretty Woman, am I right, everyone?
15:57Ronnie Karam: Listen here, all of the golden girls in Golden Palace. Except for Dorothy. Except for Dorothy Who went away to Fudge her genetics with a deserving man
16:10Ben Mandelker: Listen here All the golden girls except for Dorothy But also strangely enough Don Cheadle In the golden palace
16:20Ronnie Karam: So Joao brings the rest of the comment cards to Daisy She's like I don't even want them anymore Alright let's read them Phenomenal charter Out of this world beyond professional The garden party was amazing and so thoughtful. I was stoked with that one. God, the garden party. You did great with service. The fish was a fuck up, but that's not all my fault. So I'm not going to take that.
16:43Ben Mandelker: So Ellie's like, I'm sure that this is going to come for us. Sort of like an episode three at the Golden Palace when Estelle Getty went for Cheech Marin and said, why don't you work harder around here? I can sense it's going to happen.
16:59Ronnie Karam: he's like i'll be ready for i'll be ready i'll be ready to cry and take a blankie somewhere it's time for a commercial it's time for a crappin's commercial

18:58Ben Mandelker: So they are all cleaning and stuff and Daisy's asking Joao where are Ben and Ellie and Daisy's like, they should be working. And he's like, yes, they should be working. And guess what? Ben is in bed and he's snoring and he is not working at all.

19:54Ben Mandelker: Darth Vader yeah it's a nice white noise so Daisy I'm advocating for CPAPs that was time for a final preference sheet of the meeting alright everyone here we go charter 9 well we've thrown a lot of gays at this cast all season long. Pretty much every shot. There's been some gays. Really? And they've all been really lovely.
20:18Ronnie Karam: It's a very gay season.
20:18Ben Mandelker: Really? It really is. They've all been very lovely. So they haven't irritated you the way that we were hoping that they would. So we decided to go back to an oldie but a goodie. Please welcome back returning Below Deck Nuisance, Brandon. So I think this is like his third time being on this.
20:34Ronnie Karam: No one has hated the gay as this season. So we're sending you the worst gay of all time. Brandon.
20:41Ben Mandelker: He tried to make an appearance on potomac uh but that didn't really work out so he's back here and uh brandon brandon is back you gotta hand it to this guy he tries and he tries hard very hard yep yep he is back so i i really do think this is his third time uh being on the boat at least at least yeah he's around all
21:05Ronnie Karam: the time my god so we see brandon in his home scenes and he's with his friend carmen and um they're walking to the steak they're going to the steak restaurant like dressed like they're going to the oscars and just like waving at people as they come in they're like oh my god hi medium rare today i knew it bobby good to see you hi mr mayor hi yeah i know i don't approve of that sprinkler law what is it an orange day i can't and it's like so like it's it's so
21:40Ben Mandelker: like that region in terms of like the restaurants from what we've seen on Potomac, every restaurant they go in looks like the back of my little set here. There's always like some sort of like fuchsia lighting element, like there's an accent light behind like a white curtain. Usually I feel like every time the women of Potomac go to a restaurant, there's always a sheer curtain with a purple light coming from below it. Uh, it's very surcoated. And like I said, also my room currently, but I'm also not a restaurant. I'm allowed to have it in my room and it's okay. But I just think it's so funny as they go to this restaurant with like the purple lighting as usual.
22:15Ben Mandelker: And he's saying how he's like, you're like, I am like a top selling real estate agent. I'm, I also host nightlife events. And Carmen's like, yeah, we're the perfect pair. We travel together. We can do everything, but have sex. We do of course, love looking fabulous. And if we're going to travel, we're going to travel well and on a budget, which is why we go on below deck. And if we're going to go out and eat, we're going to eat well. And actually, I mean, he's a child. He likes chicken fingers and french fries. So I'll eat well.
22:42Ronnie Karam: Yeah. He goes, yeah, the two of us, I mean, we are the energy, right? I mean, you walk in and everybody's neck breaks. God, probably to put themselves out of misery. So annoying. So Jason's like, well, joining Brandon and Carmen are their friends, Lena, Pat, Dina, Libby, Gina, Anna, Pina. Every other name's gonna rhyme with Lena That's how the gays roll
23:09Ben Mandelker: I'm sorry Sheena you're not allowed on this
23:12Ronnie Karam: Really? Sheena's allowed right? God nobody requested you back here
23:20Ben Mandelker: She's just gonna go on a ferry Somewhere Well
23:26Ronnie Karam: You got any comment cards? Snape's hot dog was a little dry they wouldn't allow me on uh they wouldn't allow me on a yacht so i went to a ferry instead
23:39Ben Mandelker: so daisy's like how are these charger guests last time jason goes well the primary i nearly kicked him off the boat and we see that famous episode where he went swimming and what do you
23:50Ronnie Karam: mean i can't go swimming fine i'm gonna go swimming i'm swimming it's a fun and batch
23:57Ben Mandelker: she's like say a lot of them come back well they're genuinely really nice people and but they do like their drinking and we feel like you as a crew are this close to really snapping we thought let's see if we can get there right all right well brandon woodlock a seven deadly sins
24:14Ronnie Karam: inspired evening who chooses that what are we why is that why are the gays so biblical we just had garden of eden and now we have another group of gays that are bringing the bible back in again
24:23Ben Mandelker: can we stop what is wrong with us shouldn't it be like noah's ark because you're halfway there to
24:29Ronnie Karam: the the decor no because they only allow two of each animal what about jonas and the whale
24:36Ben Mandelker: that way they can throw someone overboard jonah and the whale is it jonah or jonah jonah yeah jonah jonah is a brother um so jason's reading Patrick's requirement. So I'm a simple guy. I only like burgers, pizza, pasta, french fries, chicken nuggets, and everything has to be plain. So glad he's spending all this money to come onto a yacht.
25:03Ronnie Karam: Yeah, exactly. He could go to a drive-thru. Ben's like, what a nightmare. Oh, just you wait, sir. So people clean the boat, and then we go to Daisy and Joao, and she's still fuming about the Ellie possibly being promoted thing. And she's like, well, he says, I'll let him do it. Just let him do it. She's like, yeah, unfortunately, it affects me directly. So, you know, she's going to be sous chef and then she's going to insist on standing in line in front of everybody else while we greet people for one more charter. That's going to directly affect me.
25:34Ben Mandelker: Do you know that if I have to step six inches down the line, that could affect everything. The sun could get to my eyes. I could get blinded. I could fall off the pier. I could die. I could get drowned. I could get stung by a stingray like Steve Irwin, all because I had to stand six feet away than where I normally stand.
25:50Ronnie Karam: Yeah, and he's like, well, don't... She goes, are you going to back me up? He's like, don't say it like that. I back you up if it's warranted. You know, but everything you do is warranted. Right, my little snorried snorried?
26:03Ben Mandelker: Meanwhile, the tool is in the crew mess and she's just playing with her belly button. And Ben's like, what are you doing? She's like, I have to play with my belly button. Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow.
26:18Ronnie Karam: So now we get another little fight over that rainbow penis thing And the girl's like, that's mine, now it's mine, now it's mine And now Barbie and Ellie are talking And they're like, we love each other I love you, I love you too Wouldn't it be weird if I just had to hang out with Jenna the whole time? Oh, she's actually grown on me a little And she's like, yeah, or Barbie says that And Ellie's like, yeah, I think Jenna's trying to redeem herself That's why she's so nice to everybody Wasn't that what you were doing? and it's not the way to do it? What's wrong with that?
26:48Ben Mandelker: See, if we had four more charters, this relationship, this friendship would be done-zo because Barbie would become friends with Jenna and then Ellie would have a fit. Yeah, she's testing the water.
26:59Ronnie Karam: She's definitely testing the water. Like, well, you know, I kind of like her. How dare you? You know what I mean? When people who are jerks suddenly start being nice. Hmm.
27:11Ben Mandelker: Yeah. So then it's time for dinner. they go out to foxy jacks which is basically right there in the pier and ben and barbie are seated across from each other and the way it is is this big group table is like actually several tables pushed together so um they they toast to meeting each other they're being sort of flirty and meanwhile alicia sits next to joao and joao's like well something i heard from you today when you were talking to barbie and you were like right we're gonna do this and we're gonna go get to the room so I'm gonna do this and she was like yes yes yes and I was like oh fuck yeah she's grown honestly you have okay now you just put a Shirley Temple on your forehead why are you trying to balance a Shirley Temple in this restaurant never mind I take everything back
27:57Ronnie Karam: wow wow look at you you were giving orders today you've really grown oh please she's been giving orders the whole time she just doesn't know how to do the orders
28:06Ben Mandelker: she doesn't know how to she's been giving orders it just so happens she's been giving orders to a bottle of Canada Dry. And so it's just been ineffective. But, you know, she's learning.
28:17Ronnie Karam: And she's like, I've been like this the whole time, though. So then Eddie and Ellie are talking. And Eddie's like, how are things with you and Daisy? Because I know there's been some, like, tension there. She's like, oh, it's one-sided. Because I don't have an issue with Daisy. Whatever you have a problem, come talk to me. If not, let's move on. Come on. Move it along.
28:36Ben Mandelker: Yes, a very one-sided issue. I that's what I detect when I watch this I'm like look at Ellie being very chill about the things
28:43Ronnie Karam: that Daisy's doing so I agree behind Ellie's or Daisy's back at all and rallying Ben up every time I'm supporting Ben she's just like one of those she's acting like raw I'm this is so old but she's acting like Roz from nine to five the one who just follows the boss around and kisses his
28:59Ben Mandelker: ass like oh shut up Roz oh I was really hoping you were gonna say Roz from night court
29:09Ronnie Karam: no not the same vibe but definitely from nine to five she doesn't really have a marcia um whatever her last name was okay i've reached the limits of my sitcom references for today
29:23Ben Mandelker: if it's marshes by the way if it's marshall warfield marshall warfield marshall warfield's birthday today i feel like it's gonna be this is a special i have to go look at birthdays now I'm sorry you keep talking
29:34Ronnie Karam: it's like a Marsha
29:37Ben Mandelker: it's May 26th I'm saying what there's gotta be a sitcom character who is
29:42Ronnie Karam: her birthday was March 5th 1954 so it's not that far away but it's not even the same
29:49Ben Mandelker: sign it's 100 % not close to this at all it's like it's like an M month maybe oh yeah I was really hoping that would I feel like one of these days we're gonna mention someone from one of these sitcoms from our youth, and it'll be like, yes, it is their birthday today, but all we have is Helena Bonham Carter.
30:11Ronnie Karam: What do you mean that's all we have? That's an amazing birthday. Whoever's birthday today is amazing. It's Helena Bonham Carter, Lauryn Hill, Hank Williams. I mean, that's great. And Stevie Nicks. Holy shit. It's a great day. It is a great day. Scott Disick. Pam Greer, great. Pam Greer. I mean, come on. This is a good day to be born.
30:33Ben Mandelker: I'm not saying it's not a good day to be born. I'm just saying I was hoping there would be a great, like, 80s sitcom persona who was born today. And we don't have that. Well, they might just not be on celeb lists anymore.
30:49Ronnie Karam: You know what I mean? We do have French-Spanish actress Astrid Berger Frisbee.
30:58Ben Mandelker: actually peggy lee and miles davis this is a big day for music big day for music birthdays
31:05Ronnie Karam: yeah okay so um back to this where was i don't even have my notes up anymore where are we show's over bye everybody thank you so eddie uh checks in with ellie okay so then daisy and alicia and batul go out for a smoke and this is where alicia alicia has a gets a couple of drinks in her and she gets like volatile she gets she always wants to fight with people so she's like daisy i have to ask you a pinnacle question just roll with it i'm gonna say my piece and you say your piece all right i've always thought that you championed jenna as your second but you would never think of me as a second what do you see in her that you don't see in me i mean that's what really pisses me off daisy she goes calmness for one she's like well but i'm doing so much behind the scenes that I'm not telling anyone about it.
31:51Ronnie Karam: Okay, well, the person who's moving the furniture on the stage is not also going to sing the 11 o 'clock number, lady. Okay?
31:59Ronnie Karam: Seriously.
32:02Ben Mandelker: I just, I love, Daisy has to be the mom again, because this is the, why does, what, like, why does the, why do they get to go out to the movies, but I have to stay home? It's like, because you're 12, and they're 17, right? It's like, Daisy's like alright she's like but I'm doing so much Daisy goes Alicia this is where this needs to drop I'm not gonna sit here and say you could be seconds to go back to your room and finish your homework she's like but I don't want to take a place I just want to be as valued Alicia I want you to listen to me she's like no but you need to understand Alicia stop stop
32:42Ronnie Karam: I'm never gonna be the person who inflates ego are you fucking kidding me but you've never even proposed me in seconds she goes Alicia and I'm working my balls up Alicia Daisy's like is this crazy lady kidding me she almost she quit she almost quit once and then she almost got fired seriously
33:03Ben Mandelker: and I love that like we're so used to on these shows when someone says this says usually what we're used to hearing now is your feelings are totally valid and I understand why you feel that way unfortunately at this moment in time we can't do anything more but i do love you and you're doing such great work but um we can't accommodate that i just thought the days it just goes stop stop
33:26Ronnie Karam: stop it you're dingaling and i also like that she told her you need to calm down just by being frantic doesn't mean you're working harder which is so funny and so true and so then alicia is like I needed that. Sorry to bring it up now. Thanks for that. And then they hug.
33:47Ben Mandelker: I needed someone to be my mother and remind me that I have no worth in this field. Thank you so much.
33:55Ronnie Karam: So back into the relationship, I'm sure we're all completely buying. Joao kisses Daisy's hand and she's like, I'm trying to be more affectionate with you. You asked for consistency and I listen to you. He's like, thank you. It means a lot. We've only got a few days left, So let's enjoy it now.
34:12Ben Mandelker: Well, guess what? You can come into my bed. Now you can find out what it sounds like to have the snoring reverberating off of my own pillow. Oh, really? Great. So they kiss. And meanwhile, Ben is like, I don't have a good feeling about these guys being together. I've heard about couple power couples. But Joao took Daisy's side when they were not in a relationship. and if they're in a relationship, I can't even imagine how terrible it will be for me. So he's totally paranoid right now because actually Joao up until this point really hasn't even had days back, I believe. So Ben and Barbie start doing this thing where they're like shimmying the table away from the group, which I think is actually pretty obnoxious.
34:57Ben Mandelker: They're like being, oh my God, it's like funny. We're like on a date.
35:00Ronnie Karam: Yeah, and they're like, oh, let's get away from this gross table, right? So meanwhile, Eddie zeroes in on Jenna. He's like, cheers, young lady. Well done for getting through that charter I tried to get you fired off of. I'm proud of you. Well done, you. She's like, thank you so much. I want to say to you, Eddie. I'm down for responsibility. And I only have good things to say about you, Eddie. I only got your own. What's up to my side? Your haircut. What about your personality? Your socks. The smelly socks. Won't you ever wash your socks, Eddie?
35:32Ben Mandelker: Alicia's like Adi, Jenna I want you both present this evening Yes, you guys need to stop Bringing the vibe down
35:39Ronnie Karam: We need to stop bringing the vibe down Oh my god, enough already Jesus Christ That was a joke, babe It was a joke I'm not brought up the vibe down Every crew night out Has been all of your bullshit Every single crew night out Just because of the time I didn't have to be a vibe down.
36:07Ben Mandelker: You are bringing the vibe down. It was a joke. What was that? There was a fire? Over across the island at Mr. McPhee's house? And someone's trapped in the well? We have to get to there really.
36:25Ronnie Karam: Nah, I'm just saying, be quiet. Oh, never mind. Well, you make drama and it is not okay. It is not okay. So Daisy's like, this chick, creating scenarios that don't exist. She's a little shitster over there. And Ben thinks she's gonna be promoted to sous chef. I cannot sit here and listen to this anymore. Gonna go yell at Ben now.
36:46Ben Mandelker: Yeah. So Joao's like, oh my God, Ben and Barbie. Did you guys split the table? I love that. Ha ha ha. And Barbie's like, I don't know what you're talking about. I was like, oh, well, have you got space for six Zimbabweans coming to sit with you?
37:02Ronnie Karam: So Daisy walks up to Ben and she's like, Ben, I want to talk to you. And he's like, what? What do you want? Don't draw me into something I don't know about. She's like, all right, here we go. It's the bullshit thing you're going to do to deflect. I actually want to call you out for your bullshit. And I was actually coming in really nicely. It's just something that's been harboring me for fucking days now. He says, no, no, no, no. You cannot. Sit down. Sit down. What do you want to talk about? is it work we'll talk about it in the morning then thank you that's enough well of course that's work
37:31Ben Mandelker: well because i'm not working right now this is like well i i don't have the time to talk well i think you can find two minutes tomorrow all right sugar tits uh i i couldn't stand this i could not stand how he's like i'm not working right now so you can't talk you can't address this with me but you are happy enough to talk shit about daisy and and impact her work life when you're not working so she has to deal with this when she's not working so you should have to be able to deal with it as well when you're not working you know i'm breaking with you a lot
38:04Ronnie Karam: today but um i just feel like daisy's drunk first of all and she's they're all out drinking and no i mean i think that you're i think it's totally within his rights to be like i'm not fighting tonight i'm not fine and she's standing over him kind of telling him off in front of everybody at the table which is like you know but she came in nicely she said ben i want to talk with you
38:25Ben Mandelker: she said ben can i talk with you and he was like no no no get out of it i'm not doing this sorry i just it was like he was the one being the dick in this situation i think they again i mean i think
38:36Ronnie Karam: i and i know i yelled at joao for his both sides thing but i just think they're both being such babies i mean i think going up to somebody to confront them when you're drunk on a night out when you're supposed to be partying in front of everybody isn't just, it's just not really a good movie. Especially when you know it's Ben. It's just like, oh God, just stop. Although I do love it because it's a TV show. So I'm like, yeah, part of me is like, yes. But like, it's going to be a fight no matter what.
39:03Ben Mandelker: And she's like, I don't want to have this fight when I have to be cleaning the rooms. Like tomorrow when we start working, I have to be working. I can't be having these stupid fights. And I have to address this with him because he was being a dick earlier. and I needed those comment cards to help me with my things. And you're undermining me. And like, I have to talk about it now because this is the only time that it works for me because I actually have to take care of shit tomorrow.
39:25Ronnie Karam: I could have worked at work. Like they were just on the boat that she should have been like, you know, we need to talk before we go out or something. But like having a few drinks and then doing it, I think is just not good. Well, being drunk is probably not the best way
39:37Ben Mandelker: to do it for sure. I understand him. I understand Ben not hard to have a fight. It's just not the most professional.
39:41Ronnie Karam: I'm just saying, I'm just saying, like I see what you're saying. I'm just saying that neither one of them is acting particularly professional. And I like Daisy more than Ben. Like I'm always going to root for Daisy more. And I think Ben is a total prick to Daisy, but I think she acts really unprofessional sometimes. And this is one of the times when it's like, just walk away. Like, you know, it's so unprofessional to be like fighting in front of your crew over and over again, drunkenly.
40:06Ben Mandelker: Yeah. I think this was still the best time for, well, I mean, the best time would have been for her to talk about this with Ben before they got the before their night for sure like it should have been dressed on the boat but uh i still think that she went to pull him for a chat because yes she is it's she is off the clock on the boat she is on the clock on the reality show and this is the time when they always talk to each other about things and um not to even make it so meta like that but i just i do think it was like i imagine in her mind that it was like, you know what? We're drinking. The vibe is warmer now.
40:46Ben Mandelker: It's nicer. We can have a conversation. We're not wrapped up in the tension of the boat. He just came at her just really hard. I'm sorry. He started it. He started it and now he doesn't want to talk about it. He started Boats Tonight but also over this entire charter. He was the dick first. He was the one who was starting with the fish and one thing after another undermining little comments in the galley saying obnoxious things, being petty. She's getting angrier and angrier. She's like, I got rid of Mike. I thought I didn't have to deal with children anymore. And he's also, he is actually winding Ellie up in a way that is insubordinate, I think, to her superior.
41:27Ben Mandelker: And I just think that like, she still went over to Ben calmly and was like, I want to talk to you about this. And then he just like dismisses her so rudely. I just thought it was inappropriate. You could have just said even more politely, Like, I know we have to have a talk, but I'm having such a good night. Can we talk later? Can we talk tomorrow morning? But he just is like, oh, get the fuck out of my face. I just thought it was totally inappropriate.
41:51Ronnie Karam: Yeah, it was. But it's also inappropriate for her to be coming over. Like, we need to talk. And starting to, like, act, like, raise it up in front of everybody, too. I mean, I just think they're both so unprofessional, you know? And, like, he's been, yes, he's been riling Ellie up against her. But she's also been with her staff. Like, Ben's doing this. And Ben's doing that. and he's going to get for a zoo. So she's constantly riling up her side against his side and they're just both fucking children. And you can see why he's so triggered because he's like, I feel like a six-year-old with a really bolty Irish nanny.
42:24Ronnie Karam: I mean, stop telling me what to do because you know that actually happened to him. Like he's speaking from experience and she is like this snotty ass guy thinks he's better. This rich little fuck thinks he's better than everybody else, which she's right as well. you know they're just so different she's like ready to like go to blows and he's like oh no i'll manipulate everybody against you instead so he's like daisy why don't you just skedaddle
42:51Ben Mandelker: thank you cheers good chat i don't give a shit i don't care thanks daisy skedaddle and she's like oh fuck you now you're gonna put this back on me he's like i'll talk to you in the morning she's like oh go fuck yourself so then um ben leaves because the thing with ben is this he puts up a big like puts up a big front like oh whatever get out of here i want to enjoy my night but it always sinks in and then he always feels guilty and sad because he's so insecure so now he goes and skulks off he goes back to the boat because he's like now my night's ruined so he goes off to the boat And then Jenna follows him back to the boat.
43:33Ben Mandelker: Oh, my God.
43:35Ronnie Karam: Jenna, just stay out, Jenna. What are you doing, Jenna? You just got demoted, Jenna. So it's like, what's going on? He's like, it's a night out. I don't want to be yelled at by her. I happen to know she doesn't run a good department. And we run a way better one than her. And Jenna's like, wait, wait, you're saying that she doesn't run a good department. It's not so about that. Well, I don't even know what that means. But I left. What's that, Ben? It's like why are you
44:01Ben Mandelker: You're saying that to the department You know all those steers in that department Are shitty
44:07Ronnie Karam: You know you suck right It's like I left the boat to get away From her and now what you followed me She's like I came here because you're fucking Chew chef with me
44:18Ben Mandelker: Just stop following me How about that one
44:21Ronnie Karam: No do not do not
44:23Ben Mandelker: And Ben goes starts heading to the guest cabins So I guess the difference all season is that when he's been sleeping in the guest cabins, it's because they've been unmade up or whatever, no sheets. But now the guest cabins have been cleaned and prepared for the guests for tomorrow. So Jenna's like, you don't go to the guest cabins. I'm here to be a weapon. You don't go to the guest cabins. You don't go to the guest cabins.
44:43Ronnie Karam: This is so disgusting, though, that he's going in there every charter and sleeping on just a raw mattress. You know, the sheets aren't only there to protect you. They're also there to protect the other people who sleep on the bed. That's so unsanitary. I can't believe he's doing that shit. It's just gross. I mean, put some sheets on, put some clean sheets on the bed and then go wash them in the morning.
45:02Ben Mandelker: Yeah. So she follows him up to the guest cabin and he slams the door in her face. She's like, fan up and up, fucker. So then he's like, I feel like I'm a sitting duck down in the cruise quarters. I know I'm going to be disturbed. So I'm trying to, you know, avoid any drama and see if I can get a good night's sleep. It's like, oh my God, you sensitive wanker. wanker like oh if you are in your bedroom everyone's gonna come and attack you well don't
45:28Ronnie Karam: be a dick you know like well it's also not true because he's done it every single night so that's not the reason he's doing he's doing it because he feels like he's entitled he's like i've been here forever i'm like the i'm one of the ogs and i'm gonna fucking sleep in a guest cabin bye
45:43Ben Mandelker: so um so everyone finishes their dinner and jenna's just like sobbing and because like everyone's so mean to jenna and these past few charters and the crew comes back and um basically eddie is like hey joao ben's not in my cabin so i presume he's in your made-up guest room by the way oh alicia you should know this so then alicia finds out that that ben is in a made-up cabin and Jenna's like, yeah, he is. And now they're all getting really upset.
46:14Ronnie Karam: Yeah, and Lisa's like, he shouldn't be there. Uh, really? Because I've been trying to get in there the entire time and all I was upset was because I was back in Daisy's name and that's why I'm upset. I'm over it. Daisy, you need to listen, seriously. Ben is sleeping in a made-up cabin. She's like, pull him out!
46:31Ben Mandelker: So we keep seeing shots of Ben and he's like on top of the bed, on top of the sheets, just sort of like passed out. So Joelle's like, do you want me to get involved in this? So finally Joao has decided that he is going to step up. And Alicia's like, yes, we have a guest tomorrow. It's just to fix our fucking team and everyone about us. Like he can go fuck himself. So Joao gets out of the hot tub where he's been marinating. And Daisy's like, I personally think you're opening up a huge can of worms. I'm so upset. I don't think it's worth giving the sunny attention to Joao. But now Joao is going to do this, do something.
47:03Ronnie Karam: Yeah. And she's like, you know, Ben hasn't respected me for charters. He's not going to do it now. Like, what is he going to do? Come out and say, I'm sorry. And Joao's like, well, he shouldn't be sleeping in a bed that's been made by your ladies after everything we even had to help with today. So I don't think it's right. And I want us to be in an alliance. And she's like, okay, I support you. So he's going to go for it. So Eddie's like, long story short, we're waking him up then. And so now Joao's like whispering outside the engineer's room. And he's like, oh, sorry to bother you, mate. Where are the keys to the rooms?
47:35Ronnie Karam: dun dun dun so he's gonna just walk right into that locked room wow yeah he he went he woke up
47:43Ben Mandelker: the faceless engineer so joao's like ben thinks it's his yacht and it's not he's crossed to the point of no return being disrespectful to daisy ben should absolutely know better just regardless of our friendship i will take work first in this occasion so wow he uh he unlocks the room and wakes up joao wakes up ben and when ben gets startled awake he's like does this like old-timey 1930s
48:10Ronnie Karam: boxing thing with his fist like a little kangaroo he's like oh it's the it's the irish nanny
48:18Ben Mandelker: irish nanny is coming to spike me no not this time i'm going to give little little puppet punches marionette punches you can't sleep in a bed that's already already been made
48:30Ronnie Karam: for Charterbird. Come. He's like, what the fuck are you talking about? Get out of here. They can make the beds again. He's like, no, you get out. What do you want to shepherd? You want to make a bed again? Are you joking? No, I'm not joking. Piss off, Joel. Get the fuck out of here, please.
48:46Ben Mandelker: No, don't fucking talk like that to me ever again. I am from Zimbabwe. I'm trying to do what I need to do. Ben's like, oh, you don't even know what you're talking about right now. Here, look at this. Come here. See? look check this out he starts stripping away the sheets and he starts pulling he undoes the bed and i was like dom and i were watching like and i just love that this show below deck can make taking sheets off of bed like this high stakes like like line in the sand we're like oh my god he pulled the sheets off of the bed i cannot believe what i just saw and it's also unsanitary
49:20Ronnie Karam: for him to just be sleeping on the top of the bed and then expect the guest to sleep in that bed the
49:25Ben Mandelker: next day you can't do that either with his hair greased like he's got like he's so crazy he's like
49:31Ronnie Karam: he's got to be seeping out wine smell and cigarette smell you know yeah and all the stuff in his hair
49:37Ben Mandelker: so then um ben pulls everything off the bed and draws like was it worth it because now it's unmade because you've done that it is an unmade bed oh what a terrible shame stop the fucking world
49:50Ronnie Karam: Joelle, I'm not going to be your friend because you messed up daisies, Ben. Oh, just get the fuck out of here. Would you please, Joelle, get out.
49:58Ben Mandelker: So then Joelle's like, I'll lock you in so you won't get out. Don't worry. And I was like, oh, that's funny. This is very Captain Kerry with a drunk guest. But then Ben opens the door anyway because it unlocks from the inside. I was like, damn it. That was so good for that one second.
50:11Ronnie Karam: Go fuck yourself, asshole, you fucking wanker. Go back to the fucking out there, okay? He's like, be careful, Ben. You don't want to get me zimgri. Oh, really? You fucking be careful. You, you, because there's a national emergency, you fucking prick. Now piss off or remember this, you wanker.
50:31Ben Mandelker: And he slams the door, which I was like, ugh. I guess, what, is next week the season finale? I think it is. I think so, yeah. Because med starts in two weeks. So, which by the way, I guess, uh, I guess, I guess our gay is a pretty chill on this charter because it's only going to be a one episode charter. But, um, yeah. Wow. Wow. That was crazy. Like I'm, I'm generally like, I have no idea what's going to happen. Like, cause he can't get fired. I'm not going to get fired, but like, that was so shitty. That's so shitty. What, what Ben did like beyond above and beyond. I made me so angry.
51:12Ronnie Karam: I was like, wow, he's a little asshole. but that's what you get for letting him sleep in there every day. Why has nobody ever pushed back on Ben taking that every single day? That's not fair. They shouldn't never, they shouldn't let Ben just, you know, go in there and take the guest cabin every single time. Nobody else gets to do that. That's some boom. Yeah.
51:30Ben Mandelker: Huge bullshit. Huge bullshit. Commercials. Here comes one right now.
51:37Ronnie Karam: This episode is sponsored by Klarna. You know, when you buy something practical like groceries, plane tickets, or honestly, I just did a whole, I need a new summer clothes because apparently none of last year's clothes survived my emotional support snacking era situation. And you realize you're not thinking about what you're buying, but how you're paying for it.
51:55Ben Mandelker: I've actually been using Klarna for that because it gives you options. You can pay now, later, or over time, depending on how you want to handle it. Sometimes I'll split something into a few payments so I don't have to deal with it all at once. And I like that. I like that everything's super clear in the app. You always know what you owe and when, so there aren't weird surprises.
52:13Ronnie Karam: And it's not just for huge purchases either. I've used it for everyday stuff, and you can even get cash back and deals in the Klarna app, which honestly feels like kind of a smarter way to handle spending day-to-day. Less pressure, more flexibility.

53:19Ronnie Karam: Well, we have gone really long today. We are an hour and 15 minutes into this, but you want to do a quick fish report. Fish report. Now it's time for a fish report. It's my turn, so there are no fancy graphics this week. Sorry, everybody. were really good last week. Let me move this up so we can see this mess of a fish. I mean, this fish is riddled with skin disease.
53:48Ben Mandelker: It's like, guys, I'm totally camouflaged. Assuming Bette Midler at the end of big business will be walking by in her polka dot address.
53:57Ronnie Karam: Guys, no one wants to hang out with me because of my fashion and also because my ears look like eyes.
54:05Ben Mandelker: Guys, one thing that's great about being a fish is that you can be camouflaged to all sorts of exciting things. For instance, if anyone wants to make some confetti out of charcoal, I am ready to hide.
54:18Ronnie Karam: No, I don't know this eel, but I do know this about it. It does not moisturize.
54:25Ben Mandelker: Moray eels are really, they could use some skincare.
54:32Ronnie Karam: For sure. They always look a bit craggly. Yeah. laser resurfacing something okay so oh but look at how cute he is when he smiles you know what you just what mary are you mary tyler moore because you just turned the world on with your smile i my opinion is totally different now you are adorable look at him you are an adorable i mean
54:50Ben Mandelker: i know that moray eels are vicious and unkind to scuba divers but look at this this guy's adorable it's just what a sweetheart what a sweetheart sweet sweet guy absolutely adorable
55:02Ronnie Karam: He looks kind of like a dolphin with cute little eyes. Yeah. I love him now. You want me over, Amore? Now that's Amore, baby.
55:11Ben Mandelker: And I like that his eyeballs on his nose. Yeah. I can see it in my nostrils.
55:15Ronnie Karam: It's like, do I have eye boogers or nose boogers? Who even needs to know the difference? Eating both of them.
55:22Ben Mandelker: But you can see my eye? Damn it. I was hoping it would blend in with my dots. Oh, well.
55:26Ronnie Karam: It's a point of having a polka dot eye if it doesn't blend. Okay. So next up is now this fish. This is the Jennifer Coolidge of fish.
55:35Ben Mandelker: Yeah, seriously. These lips.
55:38Ronnie Karam: What is even happening with this fish?
55:41Ben Mandelker: I love this statement. Yellow. It's going, it's going for, you know, this it's like in a life full of mustard, in a life full of ketchup fish. I'll be the mustard. This is a bunch of Florida culottes that it's wearing.
55:53Ronnie Karam: These lips. It's got really turquoise eyes, which are pretty. and then these big huge pink lips and it looks like it's making a face like uh pretty cute fish i love it it looks great okay next up we have this oh my god this fish a million times this grouper
56:13Ben Mandelker: yes this grouper is sort of like um when you meet like a lady from the upper east side who's had just like a little bit too much surgery and it really hasn't helped at all it's like it's now Now it's too late. Now it's just increasing distortions.
56:27Ronnie Karam: Well, we just had the Jennifer Coolidge fish. This is what happens years later when you get all that work done. This is kind of what happens. This is your trajectory, this fish. This fish is like, look, I'm so happy and in my middle age. And it's like, no, this is what happens to you. Yeah.
56:45Ben Mandelker: Do you remember Elise Sloan? Of course. I'm sort of getting Elise Sloan vibes, but without the wig. like if you put like black hair on it like long black hair and bangs i'd be like it's elise
56:57Ronnie Karam: also you forgot to put your teeth in that's that's embarrassing see this straight up okay
57:02Ben Mandelker: i think you can make your by the way i think you can make your the controls smaller i think if you if you click on the lower right uh of the yeah well i didn't it didn't that didn't make it smaller
57:13Ronnie Karam: i just made the screen bigger so that's what i did and then it's not the controls that got smaller
57:18Ben Mandelker: is that the screen's got bigger. I normally does.
57:21Ronnie Karam: I did that shit. And also now that I look at it so big, his eyes look like pots, like for plants. Oh, yeah. I can see that. That's so weird. Okay. Let's check out the next one.
57:35Ben Mandelker: For a moment, I thought it was the slide. I was like, well, look at that goofy fish.
57:39Ronnie Karam: I don't like when they're showing cutting sushi right next to the fish. Look how fishy is it. It's like, what the fuck, bro?
57:47Ben Mandelker: I was wondering if the sushi was going to make it into the fish report, but sometimes we have to draw attention to the atrocities that, um, our, our scaly friends must face.
57:56Ronnie Karam: Yeah. We're basically so happy. We're watching the fish. Watch the news. It's like, Oh God, another atrocity down there. It was terrible.
58:06Ben Mandelker: Gina Fischenheider over there is just swimming along and trying to get the fish marshals. Guys, do they want to go to, want to go to the empire center?
58:15Ronnie Karam: these fish aren't that fascinating but they're adorable they're like two little twin yellow fish
58:21Ben Mandelker: but they've also heard about the concept of sushi they're like did you see what the news last night it's terrible yeah i'm putting up a yellow square on instagram like we are so angry we're gathering in the square their eyes are like oh my god they're they look traumatized I think they can see the sushi happening
58:39Ronnie Karam: yeah why the long face we're watching our brother get chopped fuck
58:45Ben Mandelker: by a sous chef not even a galley hand
58:48Ronnie Karam: alright now this stingray thing is like did I fart? I didn't you farted
58:53Ben Mandelker: it's definitely giving Fast and the Furious stingray edition it's like doing donuts in the parking lot somewhere
59:00Ronnie Karam: yeah what is this thing next to it? do you see this fish that I'm circling here?
59:04Ben Mandelker: I think that's that buffer. We've seen this one. That's the secretary of fish that has become like, excuse me, you've got a call. Mr. Mushnick, you got a call on line five.
59:12Ronnie Karam: He's like, get someone in here to clean this office. Yeah, but you're throwing stuff around the office. Yeah, that's the point. That's why I need someone to get over here and clean it. God damn it. Stupid.
59:20Ben Mandelker: Yeah, she normally doesn't appear in other people's, other people's, other fishes screens. So it's sort of funny that she's doing a collab with this Ray right now.
59:29Ronnie Karam: She's just chilling. She's like lying on the ground just watching him like, oh my God, I could watch him do this all day. It's my job. What are you going to do?
59:36Ben Mandelker: You're going to wear out your tires making those donuts. You've got to go to just tires.
59:41Ronnie Karam: I'll guess. You know what? I'll get the duster. I'll get the duster. You've got to wear that suit for the rest of the day.
59:48Ben Mandelker: I think she's actually not on the she's not sitting on the floor. I think she's actually swimming above this ray. Because look. Look what happens. She starts to.
59:57Ronnie Karam: Oh, you're right. It was a trick of the eye. I thought she was just like sitting down at her desk. She's like, I've never seen that.
1:00:04Ben Mandelker: She's like, I got to slam on the brakes. This guy's doing donuts in front of me.
1:00:08Ronnie Karam: Sir, do not threaten me with your stinger. Okay? We've been through this before. It's against HR policy. Put it away. Put it away.
1:00:15Ben Mandelker: Look, there's another one back there that's doing the same thing. She's like, oh my God, so many donuts happening all at once.
1:00:22Ronnie Karam: It's embarrassing. Okay. I just put this plant because it made me think how delicious it would be if churros were plants. I mean, look at this thing. God.
1:00:31Ben Mandelker: Is there a giving pipe cleaner today, though? We've seen this plant several times and today it's sort of reminding me more of a pipe cleaner than a churro
1:00:39Ronnie Karam: You know now that it's big it does look more like a pipe cleaner Maybe I was just hungry when I watch this this turtle gives no fuck. It's just like I'm I'm just floating I don't care. It's just like floating to the bottom of the ocean
1:00:50Ben Mandelker: It's trying to impress everyone by by saying like hey everyone look at my amazing swan dive Like it doesn't count if you're already in the water
1:00:59Ronnie Karam: It's facing away from Eddie's terrible haircut. It's like I can't look I can't
1:01:04Ben Mandelker: I can't look at that strange transition on the side of your head from like a zero blade to a no blade. To just hand chopped.
1:01:14Ronnie Karam: It's like, I can't deal with you. This is another person without sheets on their bed, but they're probably just washing them at this point. So I'm going to let that go. Now look at this turtle. Look at the gorgiosity of this turtle compared to this turtle. This turtle has given up on life. This turtle is like going out and I'm getting laid. Okay.
1:01:32Ben Mandelker: Yeah.
1:01:32Ronnie Karam: Look at my cat eyes. I did smokey eyes.
1:01:35Ben Mandelker: This turtle's got everything going on. Colors on the shell. Big beautiful patterns. I mean, it's just a gorgeous, gorgeous turtle.
1:01:42Ronnie Karam: It really is. And armpits. Even my armpits are good.
1:01:46Ben Mandelker: It's doing the crawl. Yep. This is called freestyle.
1:01:52Ronnie Karam: This turtle was like, listen, I'm going out tonight. I want to look like a terracotta tile. So anything you could. I want to look like I'm on a roof in Italy. Just anything.
1:02:02Ben Mandelker: I love when fish try out their camouflage It's like you can't see me right Maybe you should put some lipstick on I don't know you were close to being camouflaged
1:02:10Ronnie Karam: It's the Britney's mom of fish It's like just give me white lipstick It really is
1:02:18Ben Mandelker: I love all the footage they found This season of fish just sitting around hanging out Not actually swimming anywhere It's like I'm just going to sit here I'm going to hang out in the coral
1:02:27Ronnie Karam: What could go wrong I honestly do not know that fish relax like this. I never knew until I watched this show. It's like I didn't know that horses... No. I think I knew horses did, but I don't think I knew that cows lied down. Isn't that weird? And I grew up around cows and I just never saw them lie down. I didn't know until I saw some western. I saw a cow lying down. I was like, oh, I thought they always stood. Yeah. At some point. Okay. What?
1:02:54Ben Mandelker: Sometimes your dogs are barking. That's true. This fish is not even scared. this fish like we are coming in so close this fish is like i'm not this is a good seed i'm not giving it up yeah the apple store is up tomorrow and i'm gonna get that new model of iphone i'm not giving up my spot on this line i'm getting the iphone air i don't care if the battery is
