Dr will’s appearance had no impact without without Dan and Janelle there. Props to the cast for the vision but they should’ve brought him in sooner

[@Chris-ft2yx]

you know what.. production dropped the ball on this do hard fr. that was dr wills whole thing? are you for real?

[@Chris-ft2yx]

they paid more for his cameo than they did the whole show im out

[@JMoney615]

Would love to see Josh be a faithful, he would probably do the same thing as Janelle and just say everyone is a traitor

[@kikipie1230]

I think Josh would be a good traitor cause he’s going to be placing blame on everybody and crying and everything lol

[@ErikRedin]

I thought Parvati played a good game given the hand she was dealt. Larsa accused her almost literally one second into the game and Parv wasn't even a traitor then. Dan brought her in because she had heat on her already. And while I understand the point John was making that Parv could've looked more scared about being murdered by the traitors, when someone has that much heat on them, there is no universe in which a competent traitor is going to murder them. If Parv had been a faithful, she would've been a huge shield for the traitors like Kate was last season.

[@Salutations26]

She didn’t play a good game. She should have used a better social game.

[@chaseyoung2778]

She did great considering her circumstances. Everyone was suspicious of her since day 1 even tho she got recruited at day 2 lol

[@Salutations26]

@@chaseyoung2778 she didn’t do great because she didn’t adapt.

[@chelseymcphedran4897]

Phaedra was playing similar to Ciri. Cody was loyal to Ciri and Ciri to Cody, while Dan seemed to be more occupied with undermining Phaedra than going after faithfuls. Dan totally blew up Phaedra. Even if faithfuls had suspicions about Phaedra, it was only suspicions at a point when a lot of faithfuls were suspected of being traitors. Dan putting Phaedra on blast seemingly out of nowhere was insane and ruined the game. Brutal Dan.

[@SandraFruitsYou]

Josh for Traitors!

[@knockknock16]

CT and Sandra... and maybe Shereé have the best shot to make it to the end. The only way Trishelle makes it to the end is if she gets shields every week. I don't see her winning. Like, why would the Traitors ever allow that?

[@Loyal_vibes]

The best episode by far with unexpected twist

[@immaculatebabirye2760]

I can imagine Frankie on Traitors hee hee

[@tanyas2670]

I actually don’t think Trischelle is a good player. She’s been wrong. She only got this right because Dirty Dan handed Phaedra over and now she’s piggy backed off of Dan’s “suspicions” she didn’t suspect Phaedra before that and she was so “sure” about peppermint based on something she made up in her head.

[@brentthompson1607]

I'm tired of these traitors turning on eachother. I wished we could see them work together, multiple minds are better than one. Maybe if they did that they would still be in the game. Think about how powerful three players working together could be.

[@chaseyoung2778]

In RHAP podcast, Wes bergmann was one of the guests talking about an episode of the traitors us season 2. There he mentioned that he’s down to play the traitors and was actually offered to play in season 3 but had to decline because of prior commitments.

[@allonjayd.5057]

Lmaooo @ “she should’ve brought the notebook” bc that’s what I said 😂 I was watching the episode like where is this book

[@Bluemooque]

7:42 exactly All Dan did was bring all the traitors down with him on his way out. Now Phaedra is catching heat because he sucked.

[@immaculatebabirye2760]

Josh for Traitors woohooo Josh is a faithful lol

[@well-dressed-bird]

Nobody has said this that I've seen yet, but Vanessa Russo would be awesome at the traitors, and I wanna see it.

[@knockknock16]

Dan as a Traitor was more preoccupied on setting up Phaedra and getting her out than he was about actually playing a good Traitor game, and that's why it is hard to give him any grace. Like, his game plan was wrong from the get go. He never had a chance and took everyone with him. meh.

[@TheRy008]

saddening, dan messed up the whole show outing both traitors... not listing to parv and the phaedra vote...

[@SimplyLolly]

When Phaedra told everyone about being in the armor room with Peter & Parv - if I were Peter I would’ve said "Yea, I was recruited to be a traitor the night before but turned it down because I’m a true faithful. Knowing they’re both traitors AND turning down their proposition, I commented about wanting to work with them just to see what they’d say… like maybe they’d slip up & say 'You had your chance but threw it away' - accidentally outing themselves as traitors. That’s the ONLY reason I took them aside." Instead, he was the one who got stuck & kinda outed.😒🤨😒

[@adrian3747_]

lol i love Kate in below deck too but yeah she’s been saying since season 1 that she likes the Bravo fam to stick together

[@Rita-sc1pj]

Dan was a horrible player and a sore loser. He wanted to out Phaedra from the beginning, he didn't want to see her in the end. He first used Parvati to target her. He never gave a name of any faithful no matter how much anyone asked who he thought was a traitor. The only name he threw out was Phaedra when he knew he was going home and that has almost put the writing on the wall for to be banished and it has partially ruined the game. The interest is now from week to week, how she will pivot to avoid the target on her back.

[@Bree5three]

I think she can quell suspicion, now that Parvati was confirmed as the second traitor, by saying Dan just brought her up to throw a faithful under the bus to save their skins. The only reason it's not the best response is because CT was also under suspicion, so why wouldn't he throw the heat his way and choose to single out her of all people. But regardless it's still an angle and one she used tonight at the round table.

[@Rita-sc1pj]

@@Bree5three if anyone can do it, it would be Phaedra. My concern would be Trishelle but it will be interesting tv for the next few weeks.

[@ajoy586]

They need to tighten up the rules about outing fellow traitors for future seasons. What is the point of the oath they make the traitors take when they join the traitors? This really messes up the game. There should be a limit to how far they can go as far as outing fellow traitors, like maybe throw a little suspicion their way and then let the others take the ball and run with it, and they can always vote for a traitor if they want to, but they shouldn’t be allowed to campaign so hard for it. Maybe give them a little more leeway at final bonfire.

[@tashas3465]

You can’t give Cody grace then shit on Dan. Nobody is really that strategic this season with the exception of Peter. Dan underestimated people and he pulled out his bag of tricks too late. But I don’t think he was a disappointment. It was entertaining. No one thought he was a traitor until the 4th episode and Dan lasted two more episodes after that.

[@salcos]

Excellent interview! Josh and Nicole Franzel needs to be on Traitors season 3.

[@WRDend]

Funny thing about Dan, based on how he is on his channel, he was way too chill on Traitors. On his streams he's funny, like a Bannanas, but on the show he wasn't himself.

[@immaculatebabirye2760]

We need to see Bananas back in seasons 3

[@Veon_Ray]

Ok... So I'm going to need Josh to recap with you more often, and maybe do a few exit interviews with you as well, because this was sooo good!

[@brentthompson1607]

I agree with Josh. Dan played the absolute worst game and was a disappointment. He he left putting a target on the other traitors which comes off as being bitter.

[@1gah2gah]

Josh has such a fun personality

[@Chris-ft2yx]

YAASSS

[@JustJ3rmz]

I totally agree with Josh. I’m rooting for Sandra CT and Trishelle.

[@KBonilla]

Josh for sure cried in this podcast

[@clarity2974]

Phadrae got somone like Kate that will not throw her under thyw bus like Dan and Parv

[@josephboza7448]

This is my first real season where I sat down and watch it from start to end. I agree with Josh you cant have a strategy. You almsot have to play this game as it happens. The prize pool is at 114,500. I would think next week a faithful is in trouble for sure. I think they would want to get that prize pool up before they get of Phaedra. At this point, each person would take home a shade under 13,000 (12,722 to be exact). Im with Sharon. I wasnt a fan of Phaedra wanting to blackmail Kate. I thought she should have done somebody like Kevin. It feels like she got that nudge from Producers to do it to Kate.

[@lichonleann]

Peter would have been a great game move to recruit. Having him stand and announce I’m a traitor may have removed any suspicion on Phaedra. However, there is also a great risk that Peter may of chosen to die. In that case it would have made her #1 suspect.

[@WhatsMarlyUpTo]

I didn't see maggots in the cabin, I'm pretty sure those were mealworms.

[@Veon_Ray]

Ah, so you're *that* person, huh 🙄

[@Ab-.-]

top 5 fav bb player all time bb19 champ josh, i love josh omg

[@JMoney615]

Not Josh saying Dan should’ve done reindeer games to warm up for traitors. Boy traitors was filmed like a year before

[@chokistick9581]

Trishelle, will have refused as well

[@carmelreal6201]

Why is it ok for Trishelle & be called a great player to blast Phaedra but when Dan did it that’s a problem? Same with Peter and it’s the same reason why Dan wanted to keep Parvati instead of Phaedra but they’re better players. WEIRD!!! 🥴 BAD TAKES this interview cause the people left aren’t gamers except for Sandra, Trishelle, CT & Peter. The rest are Bravo one liners celebrities that don’t need the money & scared to get dirty in challenges. Horrible since Dan & now Parvati is gone! Phaedra is one note with no strategy & Cirie said that in her podcast that there’s no strategy this season.

[@realitierney]

I understand where people are mad at Dan with sniping Phaedra, but from dans perspective, if he gets Phaedra out that’s a huge win and he flies under the radar and his game is turned around. It’s more a problem of the game format because he was incentivized to do that and we’re going to see this more and more from future Traitors seasons. Hate the player or hate the game 🤷‍♂️

[@hn-702]

Dan is the worst player ever. He messed up the show by outing all the traitors on his way out.

[@ralphroimallare3845]

Dan didn't have the best game, no debate, but you should see all the various versions of The Traitors. Every season you've seen Traitors give hints or try to out another Traitor on the way out. S1 of the UK version is a big example.
