Mike you are awesome for not shying away from the tough questions. Well done!

[@jessicaorwateva]

He’s so real!

[@acf5980]

The Felicia question really rattled Jag he thought those weren’t gonna be seen

[@PYT7682]

Great interview Mike BlOOOOOm. I appreciate you asking all the questions that brought certain behaviors to light that other people might shy away from on the night of the win. Glad Jag took ownership.

[@lisawilliams5353]

[@andrewbassett8315]

He did not separate PERSONAL from GAME.

[@michaelo2642]

He didn't at all, but now that he won he is trying to project this strict gameplay and personal distinction persona to look less bad as a player and person. Really annoying and fake.

[@Lou-py9qs]

[@SimplyLolly]

5:08 😳😧"Ummm… Could u explain that more?" HA!! Yes, Jag… we all watched & heard your little plan… that went on & on forever!! Oh how excited & seemingly serious you were about it. 😏 Love how they forget there’s LIVE FEEDS nearly 24/7… oopsie - watch what you say HG!🤫😂😂😂 *And THANKS Mike for bringing at least this 1 little tidbit to his attention.* 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Mike a real one for that

[@WendyT1103]

Sorry Jag but Playing the GAME IS NOT BULLYING!! Ohh Sooo What Jag was saying about Felicia was a JOKE!? & What Cirie said About Jag was BULLYING!? Please JAG.. He SERIOUSLY NEEDS a REALITY CHECK!

Mike, I looked for your interview specifically because I knew you would ask the questions that needed to be asked. Well done.

I'm so glad that Mike put Jag in the hot seat with the tough, call-out questions, and didn't just lavish Jag with praise all day long like Jag was probably expecting.

Good interview and great questions!

[@SimplyLolly]

7:01 Where was he loyal?? How many F4's, F3's & F2's did he promise??🤔 Even up until Tuesday he was seriously considering cutting his OG F2 of 3 months - talked about doing it F4, F3 & very possibly F2. His "loyalty" wavered all season. Hate when people say they were loyal the entire time they backstabbed.

[@rachelkennedy7470]

Completely agree! Prior to his 2 hr d/r, he was headed to evict Matt. After his d/r, his tune changed…..

Jag shouldn’t be proud of the game he played….

[@opo3628]

Jag, pumpkin, off the top of my head you personally knifed Cameron, Cory, Blue, America, and Bowie. Nothing wrong with that in and of itself, of course, but don't even start going around proclaiming that you had played such an "honest, loyal game".

[@michaelo2642]

Yeah jag showed his true self there. Give someone power, and you'll see their true character.

[@bbbfst]

LOL. You mean the isolation and mistreatment that never happened? But if you're really outraged about hyperbolic talk, any thoughts on Cirie wanting to kick Bowie's teeth in? (That never happened either, but words ...)

[@johnnyjohns3863]

I'll be honest I felt like Matt was gonna win and thought that Jag made a mistake for bringing him to the end..... Until I heard Jag make his argument for why he should win. I really felt like it was one of the best closing arguments I had ever heard in BB. He did a great job of taking accountability for everything that they asked. He made everything make sense for the jury. I really felt like the jury showed respect to the game of Big Brother and they crowned the best player for this season. Loved this season alot 👊😎

[@elusive_cat]

Yes! This is exactly why I don’t understand what everyone’s talking about with the “jury management” crap. Screw jury management, it’s like America said, yeah he was a slimy snake but that’s what got her vote.

[@apollozero]

Jag spouting the same Jared pr talking points when under fire and talking to the press. No one takes that crap serious, just saying what you are told.

[@missdior7764]

Idk for me if he was shouting at me at the end like that for his closing arguments and he said “ You need to vote for me I am the ONLY right decision it’s the right thing to do” what turned me off I don’t care about anyone’s race it’s who plays the big brother the best for me no one deaf has ever won either idk that’s not my kind of player to use that and poor Felicia at the end alone kind of upset me as well thank you for the interview xo

[@amysornberger232]

His brother said he was going to hold him accountable, let's see of that is true

[@Warboys11]

Jag’s final speech was so obnoxious! He spoke like he was this strong power player who had control over every move and he was the sole reason every player got evicted. He lost my vote after that speech!

[@MNBLONDY]

Wonder if we treated his elders the way he did the elders in the house would feel! I lost any respect at that point. Can't wait till they find out!

[@gagnarork]

When Cirie and Fe were running the house, no one pointed out them being old. Then they start losing without their lacky and all of sudden they're elderly? If you going to use that as a crutch, then you shouldn't be in the game. You don't get to have it both ways. Plain and simple.

[@ashsun144]

⁠@@gagnarork I think Jag Bowie and Matt purposely were talking about making Felicia sleep-deprived to win her last comp…as IF they didn’t have enough of an advantage…because they wanted an unfair advantage! Felicia never asked anyone to take it easy on her. But after everything she did for them in the house it was disgusting for them to even consider doing her like that! Those 3 wouldn’t even consider doing that to a younger player because most young healthy people could win comps while exhausted. They were trying to use her age against her. 🙄

[@gagnarork]

​@ashsun144 did they do that ? No. They talked about it sure but they didnt do it. Being stuck in a house with the same people for 24/7, wont always have you presenting the best version of yourself. No one is perfect. Jag owned up to that. Yet you guys act like youd be perfect in the house and wouldnt come close to crossing any lines. Why are you holding those two to a higher standard than you hold yourselc to ?

[@20YearSoul]

​@@gagnarorkspeak for yourself. We all wouldn't fantasize about physiological warfare on people we called the cooks... People above 50 who were already losing comps. Everyone in the house isn't like that so why are you giving these 2 grace?

[@gagnarork]

@@20YearSoul your issue is with big brother then .. Why get mad at the two guys in the house ? Big Brother has been like this for 20 years yet you keep watching ? It doesn't make sense.

[@sandygirl2544]

I think he bullied matt and I think he cheated his friend at the end cause he couldn’t play fair n square .he manipulated Matt into picking a number and LIED cause Bowie jane told him the number then he said let’s do rock paper scissors and he thought he would win but Matt did. Through the whole game jag explained tjjngs to Matt but he left out the part of needing a speech cause Matt was prepared and the he through Matt under the Bus ,drug him around the block and took a swing at all the jury . I’m shocked his speech didn’t change some minds.
