Daily Feeds RecapsDay 8 - Tuesday - July 23, 2024**The CBS schedule changes to Sundays 9pm, Wednesdays 8pm, Thursdays 8pm starting with this Thursday's show. There will still be delays and adjustments to that as we go (including tomorrow's 9pm veto show possibly delayed for politics), but most of the scheduled delays don't start until late August. I'll keep you posted as we go. Angela remained in the spotlight. She got a bit paranoid talking with Cam, which T'kor helped calm down, and T'kor later said she was impressed how well Cam handled it. And Angela told us she "knows what's going on" regarding whether Tucker's really anti-Matt or not and other things. And she had a later, long check-in with Chelsie, saying she'd most like to see Matt be gone, along with Makensy and Lisa. Chelsie griped to us about Tucker, including that he put a booger on his pants yesterday and wore the same pants today, and about Angela rolling up on her to say don't talk about her, when the incident in question was a joke. T'kor told Kimo that Matt's confident he'll stay, and she encouraged Kimo to keep talking to people. Lisa and Cam did some morning yoga in the backyard and talked about forming a massage train later with others, and a lot of convos broke out about relationship histories and philosophies, religions, and other next-level get-to-know-you convos. Most of the afternoon was more general topics convos and chit-chat, which was fine: they and we needed the break from solid chaos. There were also lots and lots of WBRB fishies, which was not fine. Leah made some highly-narrated sushi, which most of them enjoyed. Cameras zoomed in on Lisa when she tried it. I don't think she commented either way, but I was picturing a "needs glitter" thought bubble over her head. Angela met with Kenney to rehash, rationalize, and apologize some more. She said she didn't know what she was doing with the noms and had no guidance, and he said she'd made it clear to everyone she would decide them herself. And he said he'd wanted to team up with Angela and Brooklyn (which they'd apparently discussed), but then Angela killed that by putting him on the block. He said when he mentioned throwing the AI Arena he'd been emotional because it was his daughter's birthday, but he woke up today ready to win it and save himself. And he referenced past players who were there "just to sell their clothes line, or just to get to jury" and said they had some of those in there this season. (I'm pretty sure he's mentioned his Sweet Kenney K products a few times.) Finally Angela's marathon apology tour and Lisa's IT'S BULLSHIT tour collided as they too did some rehashing of those original nominations. That convo didn't go too well. Neither got hostile but there were definitely some snippy tones from both. Lisa said something about being associated with Angela could hurt her integrity and/or chef business, but feeds cut away from that with a quickness. That's not the first time something potentially volatile or controversial has been cut off. They may be trying to adopt a BB Canada-esque method of scandal and rabies prevention this season. Canada was always way more cautious about everything than USA, and they finally gave up trying to gatekeep everything the hamsters said or did by killing feeds, and replacing them with a couple hours worth of curated content every day. But that only lasted two seasons, and then the show was executed. Another Lisa pic? Yep. After I'd written the above about preventing scandals and ugliness leaking out, apparently Lisa and Angela got into it again, but it was blocked from feeds. They were down a long time, then came back in tiny bursts before going down again. We saw Angela staring at the spyscreen at one point, then she said "oh, there's Lisa, she's so high and mighty, she never makes mistakes" before feeds went off again. In another glimpse, Brooklyn told T'kor she doesn't want people to go home regretting things or feeling differently about who they are. (No comment on that one because of pre-show revelations about Brooklyn being Aaryn's friend or acquaintance.) In another glimpse, Lisa was attempting damage control in the yard, saying "it's just a lot to receive and handle," and apologizing to Quinn for him being brought into it? He was there in the kitchen again for another one. There were some references about power(s) having been mentioned, maybe because Angela's been so sure Lisa has one and said so? And Chelsie asked Angela how it started, which we weren't allowed to hear, but we came back to hear how it ended as Angela said she had fun calling Lisa Tinkerbell, and telling her "you can go now and sprinkle your fairy dust." She added she should have come up with something better. Cam, Cedric, Chelsie (CCC) met in HOH to compare notes and discuss week-by-week plans going forward, and they were smart about it. And to wrap up this Lisa-centric episode, Tucker threw her into the pool. She asked him to, apparently for camera time? The nominee who had a meltdown after going on the block, then competed and won veto, and continued with more drama? That's a trifecta of guaranteed camera time! But I'm sure Tucker enjoyed it. A lot. And she suggested wearing a fairy costume tomorrow to spite Angela.I feel the last few seasons either settled the votes on Mondays after the veto meeting, or they debated them all week. There wasn't a lot of vote talk today, so it's possible this group will revive the Waffle Wednesday tradition and do all that tomorrow. As of now, it seems Kenney or Matt will go, depending who stays on the block, and Kenney would probably go over Matt. But get out your waffle irons or pick up some Eggos just in case. GET YOUR FEEDS to get the real story. It's a very messy, very fun season so far.

Day 9 - Wednesday - July 24, 2024**The CBS schedule changes to Sundays 9pm, Wednesdays 8pm, Thursdays 8pm starting with this Thursday's show. There will still be delays and adjustments to that as we go, but most of the scheduled delays don't start until late August. I'll keep you posted as we go. Late night had a lot of flirting and showmance-ish talk between Matt and Makensy, who've been adamant they're not a showmance - she's adamant about that anyway. He's adamant about being a good guy and good guys finish last, etc. At one point the cameras kept cutting to Matt when Cedric gave Makensy a piggyback, but he was just chatting away, unbothered, so that's good. I don't think the piggybackers got a "stop that" from BB - maybe whoever was in the control room wasn't here for the Christmas season. 'Nuff said about that. They were told the yard would be closing at 6am. It could stay closed til Saturday night, but I don't know if they were told that part. They'll learn as they go. This morning brought some reassurances and advice. Quinn told Angela to continue to de-stress, not try to duplicate previous iconic players, and just be herself. Afterwards she said to herself "he's so right, oh my gosh" and she did pretty good. She made a lot of conversational rounds, maybe trying a bit too hard and emphasizing she'll be okay going forward here and there, but baby steps. Rubina said she wasn't sure where she fit in and felt alone in there. Lisa and Leah both peptalked her. Brooklyn and Quinn agreed Matt will go if he remains on the block against either Kenney or Kimo, and Kenney will go if final noms are him versus Matt. (Self-pat on the back for me for predicting that correctly.) WBRB fishies blocks continued being too frequent, but not as bad or as long as yesterday. We did catch that apparently Angela called Lisa a bitch during yesterday's incident. Lisa arranged a group meditation session and set up a meditation den in the living room, saying if anyone didn't want to participate she'd "totally respect that." Most of them did show up for it, eventually, and Cam led a guided meditation that they all said was refreshing. Later Kenney said he'd never meditated in his life and wasn't about to go in there and fake it.. social game on point. Cedric and Leah planned their reveal that they are the twin twist. Matt and Kenney both did some low key campaigning here and there, but there wasn't a lot of talk or waffling among the voters. Matt's pitches had a very lot more words than Kenney's. Tucker made self-serve tacos with various toppings for everyone, which they enjoyed. Matt told Makensy and Leah he overheard Brooklyn and Rubina talking game, but not specifics, and he said it sketched him out. Leah seemed shocked to hear it. Angela's shmoozing revved up: she told Kimo she'd absolutely love to see him and Rubina go to the end, adding that of course she'd like to be there with them if it works out that way. And she told Cam and Chelsie she's not really who she's been this week, they'll see, and she expects to go on the block next week no matter who wins it. She also ran a few of her cracked theories, including her certainty that Lisa has a power. Cam told them he has yet to notice when any of the women poop, or fart, adding "women hide it well." Quinn told us he's been telling all of them he wants HOH but he doesn't, he knows he and Brooklyn are at the bottom of the Pentagon alliance so he's working with her, he's annoyed Cedric's in such a good position when he knows nothing about BB, and it's exhausting to keep explaining stuff to him, and he said his F2 with Joseph was "nonchalant." Lisa and Leah had an intense and lengthy whispery strategy session, agreeing they should ally with T'kor and Quinn, and maybe Cam, or maybe Tucker. A fly was crawling around on Leah for some of it, which she welcomed. They called themselves Moonshine, and wrapped up with a long, elaborate hands routine that was way too long to use if it's an alliance hand signal, especially when voting. Kimo and Quinn talked about BB Canada's cancellation, wondering if it was due to costs or killing feeds, or both. (Most hamsters don't even realize Canada had a BB.) Lisa gathered everyone to wish her brother happy birthday, which they did. Angela was present but had a grouchy look on her face, and Tucker continued cooking during the festivities. Lisa later presented the pitch to Quinn and T'kor, saying they'd tentatively call it Moonwater rather than Moonshine. Both listened attentively but didn't act eager about the idea, but went along with it because turning down alliance invites is not good BB. Lisa told them not to believe anything that comes out of Angela's mouth about her, that she'd had it in for Lisa since Day 1 and "it's really bad, it's really tacky." Quinn retold his convo from earlier when Angela had asked him for advice, and pointed out she had been doing better and being more sociable today. And Quinn told her most everyone was planning on voting out Matt, which surprised her. I didn't figure Quinn to be our blindside ruiner, and I hope he doesn't make a habit of it. Later Lisa went around canvassing the neighborhood amid various gripes about her behind her back. Lisa and Makensy did Tinkerbell dances loudly, and glittered the cookies Makensy made. Matt made a marathon pitch to Brooklyn, Lisa, Rubina in the unicorn room, much of it revolving around wanting to avenge his mom by booting Angela in the future. He got to the point where he was acting like she'd taken out his entire family in a bloody massacre. And he downplayed his comp chances, asking what if it's a crochet competition? (That would be new!) Lisa said everyone seems to have forgotten there are still powers floating around - actually people just aren't talking to her about them because most think she has one. They tossed around ideas of what the powers could be, and Matt said he thought one might be taking someone off the block, but he didn't know and didn't know who has it (lie). Lisa said she thought something like that would be too powerful compared to the downgrades the mascots got. Wait til they find out what Quinn's can do.We're probably still at Matt or Kenney leaving if either's up against Kimo, and Kenney leaving if it's him against Matt. Whoever goes, the game always kicks into gear after the first eviction, when someone is actually gone and they start treating it all like life or death. Good times ahead!
