Big Brother: Lane Socks it to the Brigade

Big Brother 32 Comments

Lane Rocks Out with his Sock Out

On this week’s Big Brother, Lane must face a decision of whether he wants to go to the finals with Britney or one of his Brigade mates while Ragan is left on the outside looking in. Rob Cesternino and Nicole are back for a Big Brother podcast to break down all the drama. On this week’s show we’ll explore:

- Why have none of the players (specifically Matt) risen to the challenge strategically. Is there any hope for Ragan left in this game?

- Who does Rob suspect is the voice of Otev the Broadway Clam?

- Was there really money hidden inside the money tree?

- Did Lane and Britney ever hook up?

- What is Annie saying about the Big Brother cast on her twitter page?

It’s a Big Brother podcast more entertaining than a giant clam who sings showtunes. It’s Rob Has a Podcast

I'm wanting in the league. I have been into FF for 10 years now and have been commish of the said league for that time as well. I have played on Yahoo and CBS.com.
Mike

Rob, I want to apply for the ESPN league team that is available. I am a long time Fantasy player for 10 years and my profile e2chris shows it. ESPN member since 2000

http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/e2chris#/fans/e2chris/notes

All time All Star player profile doesnt show wins since 2k5 though. Anyway, I have checked out the team and I really think it has potential. Manning/Rice/Moss/Gonzo/Jets D. it has potential to get to the playoffs for sure. This year with NFL teams playing the last 2 games in division brings new life to the playoffs without potential starters sitting.

Look forward to hearing from you and I wont let you down.

This doesn't seem to be going well at all.

I personally loved the McDonalds tangent. Unlike Mike, I love when the podcast strays as long as it remains funny. Serve up more zings, boR!

This is my first website podcast comment ever! (because i usually don't get to listen to them in a timely fashion)

I was very amused that the Russell Hantz impression made an appearance. I don't particularly want to see or hear Russell Hantz ever again, but I would listen to an entire podcast done in the Russell Hantz voice. Maybe with a few Rachel laughs sprinkled in.

Matt totally just laid over and died. He didn't even try and save himself during his last few days in the house, the 'diabolical super genius' just wanted to hang out with his “mates” who had been trying to get him out for the last 2 weeks.

The reason that they weren't shocked at all about the double eviction is because before the live show they spent an hour going over the HoH and PoV competitions so they could fit them into a 1 hour show. The two competitions were about as simple as they come though so I'm not sure why they didn't just leave it to be a surprise, it would have made much better TV than them just sitting there stone faced when Julie told them…..

Why wouldn't they vote to save Britney over Brendon? Ragan is closest to Britney out of everyone in the entire house. Lane has a choice between saving someone who has his back 100% and would never vote to evict him or someone who put him on the block when he was HoH and would come after him (and Ragan) if he stayed in the house. That would be a no brainer for me. Enzo then has to vote with the house so he doesn't piss Brit off. If Enzo and Hayden had been two of the three people that voted then it might have been a good move to vote out Britney but Hayden's pretty close to her and has a deal with her so I don't think it would have happened even then.

Don't shoot the messenger! I just put what Enzo said word for word to the other houseguests about how he got his nickname. You are killing feed insight Natalie!

I like the banter at the beginning, it is who you guys are! Laugh out loud goodness.

Questions: Are you guys doing a live BB12 finale show like Survivor?

Do you think anyone from the house will talk to Matt once again after finding out about the wife lie?

I think there are too many factors with asking who you two think will win with HOH/POV still to come, BUT who do you think will win the fan favorite?

When Brendon got kicked out, I have to say, one classy exit and I have seen a lot. For a guy who pretty much got screwed and did not see it coming, he could have pouted/become angry, but he took the classy route and even held the door open for them to see outside!

I liked the 3 punishments! The sock was my least favorite, or I think they could have picked some better conversations. And I agree, wayyyy too much filler, especially the penguin shun.

Ragan did pretty much give up and die. He isolated himself all week. He would be held up with a bottle of wine in the have and have not room just talking to the feeds. At one point he was going through “I wonder what (fill in blank)” The best was, “I wonder what finally smoking pot again will be like”

I want Brit to win, maybe it's because she is the underdog, but if she does not win HOH, I hope she gets POV because I think she will win in the final showdown. This is going to be a season where people forget the winner, like the Maggie season.

I agree with Nicole, Rachel was the villian. And that is totally Lane's face plastered on someone else's body on Annie's twitter.
Natalie

Oh and the CD's I forgot. How trashy did they look with that writing on it?! You know that was not a good day for the BB interns when they learned they had to write mash up names on 100 blank CD's.
Natalie

Oh and (last one promise) Haydon is going to take Lane to the final 2. They all feel if they go up against Enzo they will lose because Enzo 100% would have the package deal of Rachel and Brendon which is 2 votes locked. Pretty much, Lane is looking the best because if either Hayden or Brit wins final HOH they will both take Lane.
BS

looks like you've got another Igoraziz on your hands Rob

Britney and Lane haven't hooked up, with so little happening in the house at the moment they would definitely have shown it if an engaged housemate started fooling around.

They do flirt an awful lot though. Especially when Britney had a drink or two and Lane was HoH, he must have asked her to sleep in his HoH bed with him like a 50 times one night and she never flat out refused. She kind of avoided the question saying it would be “against the rules”, she didn't elaborate on who's rules they might be but it didn't sound like BB's…..
BS

Enzo could never make it in the mafia. The “Meow Meow” would be sleeping with the fishes for sure.

Looking forward to the Survivor preview podcast. Big Brother is really losing steam whereas Survivor always gets better as the season progresses.

Hi Rob and Nicole-
To get into the Survivor spirit, here's a question for you: Which Survivors do you think would play a good strategic game in BB. I think players who make big moves like Boston Rob or Russell would really struggle in the game, but more subtle players like Stephen would do well… I also think this is one of the reasons why there seems to be more floaters on BB because the bold moves seem to be punished more.

Here's some more word association for Nicole:

Snooki
The Mets
Pandora's Box
the tv show Lost

Rob, you said your least favorite of the “fillers” was Enzo's golf ineptitude. It was definitely filling time but I couldn't help but laugh when they blurred both Enzo AND his sock puppets mouth when he/they swore.

For Nicole: The Survivor tribes are divided by under 30 and over 40 so you aren't eligible for the old tribe for another ten years!
Michael

Rob, the two minutes in the last podcast you spent talking about McDonald's was the funniest thing ever, but you should really let Nicole be in you fantasy football.
Michael

*your fantasy football
alex

You'd never guess it due to the scripts that the DR gives Hayden to shout but I'm pretty sure he was the first one to say that he wouldn't mind going up on the block (before nominations and the veto ceremony).
SudburyAdamB

what i liked best about this podcast was all the off topic chatting. this could be perhaps im really starting to find this season of big brother to be failry lackluster. as you said in the podcast there is no backstabbing, the closest thing would be in my opinion matt using the dpov and putting kathy up and brendan going home when he was told he was safe. not all that exciting. looking forward to the survivor podcasts!

I LOVE the stuff on “You Cant Do That On Television” I miss that show!!!

I wanted to say, you guys were joking about other purposes for a sock puppet, there was a former houseguest (cant remember who) that “used” one from time to time. And Im glad TV viewers are up, cuz the number of feed watchers is down. AG and her crew block more of the feeds each year, it seems.

This am Annie said :”So I woke up this morning feeling the most normal I've felt in a long time and proud to say the bitterness has dried up in me” If you want a funny former BBer to follow, follow James (no, not the crazy pink hair one, the better one!) @jamesrhine. He's got some pretty good zings…

NO WAY Lane is related to Russell by birth…Lane is way too attractive :)

In my opinion the Jury House stuff was WAY better than the show last night.

Agree with the statement that it has been a boring season, strategy wise. To me no matter how you play it, it will be the most boring final.

I believe Shannon is the oldest on the young tribe at 30. I'm not sure why they had that ten year hump. I guess the 29 and under VS. 30 and older cut off wasn't very effective in Exile Island.
Adam

The funniest thing about this boring season is how delusional the houseguests are about how entertaining the season is. According to conversations on the live feeds, the diary room informed them they they have the highest BB ratings ever (sadly true), so they are convinced that they have the most dramatic, exciting, character-filled season ever, and that they will all be HUGE stars when they get out. Enzo in particular believes that he will become a famous movie star out of this, no joke.

Separated at birth? I don’t know if you watch Parks and Recreation, Rob. But Lane is the spitting image of the character Andy Dwyer on that show, both in looks and mannerisms. He’s the character who says some of the most ridiculous, unintentionally funny things on the show, which is kind of what Lane is like in his diary rooms.
