    I tried that and it wasn't him.  This was a young, buff guy who eventually married the blonde woman he was engaged to when cheating and then they had a baby.  I keep thing Aaron or something but getting nowhere.  I want to check him out out of morbid curiosity more than anything else.  Which is probably bad mojo so I should stop.  (but I probably won't.)

    Is this the guy?

    I don’t think there is or ever was a Trop Hop.  I think it was fabricated for just a storyline, or else he would appear a bum with no ambition.  Has anyone ever seen it in stores?

    I bought it when I was in Charleston and gave it as a gift for my brother (he just likes to try different beers) and my mom (she watches Southern Charm and wanted to try it).  My mom didn’t care for it but she doesn’t usually do flavored beers.  My brother said it was good and would drink it again.  It’s a real thing.  I found it at Trader Joe’s but I also saw it in the menu at one of the restaurants we went to.

    Remember Josh's boyfriend before Bobby?  The guy who lived with him at the hotel while he was grieving his grandmother's passing?  And this new boyfriend, also in real estate?  All these men are less financially successful as Josh, so it gives Josh this upper hand.

    That was Colton.  I really liked him!  He seemed like such a sweet guy.  As much as I liked Bobby, I always felt like that relationship was going to crash and burn.  It was so soon after Josh and Colton broke up, if I am remembering correctly, that it seemed like Josh was just running away from actually dealing with the breakup.

    About the reports of CNN possibly cutting back on documentaries. It's a shame. CNN documentaries on Lincoln and RBG (for instance) have been so well done. 

    Well fortunately PBS still has Ken Burns.

    I did not know this.  I am so bummed about it.  I've loved their documentaries.

    And that was Naomie's own sister. I'm disgusted.

    I just couldn't believe how Naomie was still trying to explain it away as her sister always wanted to marry Warren so it was okay.  She couldn't acknowledge that at 12, her sister couldn't make that decision and didn't know what she would be getting into at that age.  I was so disgusted.  

    The last two episodes were the worst for me listening to Naomie.  She really does not get it.  I kept thinking at any point she'll turn this around and acknowledge where she messed up but nope.  She only seemed to want out when negative things happened to her.  When it was happening to everyone else, she didn't care.  

    I did like the other narrators and was happy to hear their stories.  I was so glad Vickie got out and got her kids.  I forgot the other lady's name who was a granddaughter of Rulen but I felt so bad for her that she couldn't get her older kids out of there.  I can't imagine how difficult that must've been and still is for her.

    This really is bizarre. Hello, projection!

    I remember being told once that what we dislike about others is really what we dislike about ourselves.  She kind of embodies that whole concept.

    Anywho, it's fun. There is not one Pre-existing couple I'm rooting to get back together yet.

    Me either and, quite honestly, I don't think any of the exes are actually wanting to get back together, lol.  I do love the voiceover guy.  His takes are hilarious.  I did notice that they don't have a host this year.  I'm curious how they will handle the pineapple ceremony, or whatever it's called, without a host.

    That was great, especially Antonia's reaction, followed by Justin W.'s comment!

    I must admit, I started watching "Parts Unknown" right after Anthony Bourdain died.   He was friends with Eric Ripert, and Eric appeared several times on Parts Unknown.  I like watching food competition shows, but I'm not fully aware of the chef scene.  Needless to say, I did not fully understand or appreciate Eric's status as a chef.  For a long time he was "the guy who was on Anthony Bourdain's show."

    I now understand how incorrect I was.

    Eric and Anthony were actually filming an episode when Anthony died.  If I remember correctly, Eric found him...  https://time.com/5306636/eric-ripert-statement-anthony-bourdain-death/

    One of my favorite memories of watching "Parts Unknown" with them is when Anthony said something about people coming up to him and thinking he was Eric Ripert and he'd tell them in a (terrible) French accent that all the fish was canned.  It was hilarious and Eric got a big laugh out of it.  They were awesome to watch together. 

    Back on topic, I liked this last episode.  It had more funny moments to me.  I didn't care for Guy calling those two chefs GOATS.  In what world are they GOATS.  They might be really good but there's no way they are GOATS.  I am happy to see so many TC people, though. It's fun to see so many familiar faces and it does speak to how good some of those people are.

    I think you are probably right regarding the cameras looking like a security system and not being "in your face" cameras filming. However, since reality tv is not a new concept, anyone on this show ( or other reality shows no matter how scripted lol) should know better at this point.:)

    I don't disagree that they should know and are aware that they are being filmed all of the time, but I also think it's hard to stay in that mindset all of the time.  It's your home for 5-6 weeks so it would be hard to not forget and just go about your life when there isn't a camera crew in your face filming.  I could totally see how once the crew is gone that you let your guard down and forget that your still being filmed.  I feel like this is what might have happened to Clara.  The crew wasn't around, and she was hanging out with her friends and got carried away with the topic.  I saw it as an honest mistake and not her intentionally trying to hurt Ryan.  Should she have known better? Sure, but I can see how easily that mistake could happen.
