Rob Cesternino hosts a discussion with Jamal Shipman, a former Survivor: Island of the Idols contestant, about the latest developments in The Traitors US Season 3. Jamal recently started watching The Traitors and shares his thoughts on the game and its players. The conversation begins with Jamal reflecting on his initial impressions of the show. He admits he wasn't immediately hooked but found the third season more engaging due to its improved challenge design. Jamal highlights how the challenges now require players to weigh their roles as traitors or faithfuls more carefully, adding depth to the game. The discussion shifts to Danielle Reyes, a runner-up from Big Brother 3, whose gameplay has been polarizing. Jamal critiques her decisions, noting her struggles to adapt her strategy to The Traitors format. Danielle remains in the game despite her questionable moves, partly due to the other players' limited knowledge of her background. Jamal and Rob explore the dynamics between Carolyn and Danielle, who are at odds over whether to recruit or murder another player. Jamal suggests that Carolyn should allow Danielle to recruit Brittany, only to later betray her. This strategy, he argues, could give Carolyn an advantage in the game. The conversation also touches on the broader implications of the show's dynamics, with Jamal drawing parallels between the game and real-world social interactions. He notes how players' assumptions and biases can lead to false accusations, a theme that resonates beyond the game. As the episode concludes, Jamal speculates on the future of the game, questioning whether Danielle will be able to maintain her position. He also considers the potential for Carolyn to recruit Brittany, despite the tension between them. For more insights and analysis, listen to the full episode of the podcast.

The Traitors US Season 3 Ep 5 Exit Interviews Welcome to RHAP's coverage of ALL the Traitors iterations from around the world, including New Zealand, Australia, and Canada. The Traitors US is a high-stakes reality competition set in a secluded castle, where contestants must work together to complete challenges and earn a prize pot—while rooting out the secret traitors hidden among them. We Know The Traitors is back with an explosive exit interview! Rob Cesternino and Pooya sit down with the recently eliminated Robyn Dixon to dissect her shocking departure from the game. As a veteran of reality TV, Robin's unexpected elimination leaves her searching for answers and reflecting on the cutthroat nature of The Traitors. In this revealing conversation, Robyn shares her strategy to target Boston Rob and her frustration at being eliminated before she could execute her plan. She offers unique insights into the challenges of identifying traitors among 20 players, especially when facing off against seasoned strategic gamers. Robyn's perspective as a Real Housewives alum provides a fascinating contrast to the gameplay of competition reality tv show veterans. Rob, Pooya, and Robyn discuss: • Robyn's plan to expose Boston Rob as a traitor • The difficulty of reading 20 strangers' behavior simultaneously • Contrast between reality TV drama and strategic gameplay • Impact of late-game player additions on house dynamics • Robin's surprise at Carolyn and Danielle's deceptive gameplay As the power dynamics in The Traitors castle continue to shift, Robyn's elimination raises questions about the effectiveness of intuition versus calculated strategy. Will the remaining faithfuls be able to identify the true traitors before it's too late? 00:00 Intro 02:00 Suspicions about the gamers 06:01 Dynamics among the faithful 10:40 Impressions of Wes and Derrick 12:25 Robyn's unaired contributions Never all our Traitors US recaps plus recaps from other versions around the world!
