[00:04:47] The interest of WordPress is still largely for developers. First and foremost, and I see a lot of people. Hey, this whole like learn JavaScript, deeply thing. Gutenberg, Gatsby. I feel like some people there's a camp of people who are like, oh, that's that's too technical. Like I can't even enter in WordPress anymore. [00:05:08] Because it's no longer just modify some HTML and CSS and know a little bit of PHP lightly. Like that's how I got into the WordPress world. So I could kind of relate with that, but I'm not a developer. So I haven't been practicing this skill for like the last decade. What's your thoughts on somebody from the outside, just getting into WordPress development? [00:05:27] Is it that much of a challenge or if they're starting fresh, you kind of just learn this language and your. [00:05:33] Alexandra: So is that? [00:05:33] different type of developers and What you want to do myself? I'm self-taught then I, when I begin with WordPress, I did have not shaman and CSS. I just began taking themes and playing with them. And. Yeah, the design sense. So deep things begin to work and I begin to learn as GMs, CSS, and begin to, to my themes and, and I love, and I discovered I'm a developer and I love that.[00:06:00]  [00:06:00] So I wanted to go deeper and I wanted more. So I did a JavaScript bootcamp and I react and I, that was that's me. Okay. Now there is a, of a type of developers and there is WordPress implementers. Doesn't that blob, but they do great things to Wednesday address to work different type of clients. I think. So I think there is place and things for really different type of person. [00:06:26] Like there is different type of developers we're in front then backend there's dev ops people [00:06:32] and now we have this possibility of the wing doing jump stack. So no people is a great thing we've worked with.  [00:06:39] It depends on who you are and why you want to go. For me, it has been an opening. Yeah. And now I'm very creating a product in reacting, never expected that 10 years ago. So [00:06:49] Matt: What was the job? You mentioned you, you took a JavaScript course. What was that course for folks who might be interested in it? [00:06:55] Alexandra: it was in Barcelona and it was in Spanish. So it was a bootcamp in russula the Skylab I'm, I'm a, I have to that language one, French one is Spanish. So I speak English as you see, but taking one in Spanish, it was a burden less for me, for my brain learning that, but it was a great one. It was freelance full time, full stack. [00:07:16] So it was react. No, they, everything. And zip center. It was more to find a job. So all of them find a job at the end. So bootcamps are a really great, I think in my case, it was more to have to learn new things, to have more fun, developing and doing new things and flex to that. I'm there. So yeah, some bootcamps are nice. [00:07:38] I think my opinion, it was in person. It was not online.  [00:07:42] Matt: Sure when we had our pre-interview, we talked about this being your very first product, that's not your first foray into a business because you've been running a business. But talk, talk to me about this whole first product thing, any fear around that, and how did you prepare yourself to launch your first. [00:08:00] Alexandra: Oh not fear. No. And I just been. The path it's interesting. It happened what happened, even if it doesn't the work or whatever, I have learned so much at a great time, as I say them are creative. So creating a product is, is great. I am. I had a lot of fun enjoy doing it. I saw I'm very lucky because I didn't want it to do it alone. [00:08:26] When we begin with with Zach, but then I really needed a partner to develop with and I found he spent harm on Twitter. I knew where before from word gap in various she's polished. And she lived in various I contacted her and she was immediately okay. She already had a thin business in forest, but she wanted to do new things. [00:08:47] And especially in JavaScript, she was more with view and she, she learned react with me and she's super talented in design and in coding, in everything. We met at Gatsby days in London when I was doing a talk [00:09:00] and we begin the next day immediately. And it was, yes, a lot of fun. Enjoy Zen. We are not marketers. [00:09:09] So for the lounge to clot off more times than we thought, and when we decide, okay, we are going to launch, then you realize all the little things that you have not done in coding, in documentation, I was taking care of the commercial part, so, okay. For sales first. [00:09:27] we choose a Stripe, but then, oh, okay. [00:09:30] As a reason, all these data protection things and taxis and all, or no, I don't want to deal with legal things.  [00:09:37] So you have all these things to think. And, and before I think before you decide, okay, now we are going to launch you don't think about them. And they said go, oh, there is that. That's not the fun  [00:09:54] Matt: Yeah. Yeah. Like, oh, worry about to sell this thing. And now we have to do support. I forgot about.  [00:10:00] Alexandra: Yes. I also allowed the support, a website with bathroom circles that I think it's also Ballina was responsible of the documentation. And she did an amazing work on that. It was really to document well things. And is there any, so they, we pushed the button, to, to, to, to say. Okay. [00:10:21] Now it's slides a burden. [00:10:23] It was really, really something. And we had no idea our sales going to what was going to happen. But the first day I happened to have the five minutes. So it was really a nicer and I sign  [00:10:36] Matt: talk to me about just picking these tools really quick. I know that I think a lot of WordPress people immediately go to , oh, I'm going to, I'm going to launch a theme or a plug-in business. I'm gonna. Well, what's been in the news recently, easy digital downloads. Maybe they pick woo commerce, the deliver the product. [00:10:53] And then some folks who are like, Hey, I'm going to do support. They might be picking, BB press or they might be doing slack or something like that. You chose two fairly different tools. I love circle. I think it's a fantastic tool. I've never used your merchant before. Why not something that was attached directly to WordPress. [00:11:11] Was there some overhead there that you were like, yeah, I don't even want to deal with that side of it on. [00:11:14] Alexandra: But first I wanted to, to do the sales website. We have the project, with gets you WordPress. So it's not your WordPress where we don't have each other downloads, et cetera. And all the thing that even, I don't know if it's digital downloads take care of the taxis and, and data protection. For me as you think as really a nightmare [00:11:39] is there an about, about the support? I know a lot of people now are on discord or slack and. Slack is nice, but what do you want to make part? If people ask questions, then if you want to retrieve the message for other people, that will be, that can be useful unless the kids have been version. [00:11:58] It doesn't work for me. [00:12:00] Slack works better. For example, I am a team from my agency and then I ask the people on slack. That's different. This is nice on so far for community. But not for support, and when you want to, to have something well done with people can reach into the message, et cetera. [00:12:15] So I searched, there is discourse. That was great. And it's very sort of use that. And I discovered circle because I am, I'm also at both the courses. I hate tomatoes and I love this this courses with Peter. And I think it's really nice. [00:12:32] So I just search for what they need, and so,  [00:12:37] Matt: It's nice to see people in the WordPress space. So I've been talking to a lot more, no code, low code people on this podcast and, circle. Third party merchants, web flow. Like this is what everyone else is using. It's it's only really in the WordPress world where you just find everyone saying, I will not use anything unless it's GPL and I can find it from wordpress.org. [00:12:58] So it's nice to see, tools working really well. And you voting with your dollars because it's common sense. It doesn't have to glue into word press. If it's solving your need it's, it's good. And I just want to highlight that because I think it's, it's sort of understated with a lot of folks these days, or maybe even some folks in the WordPress world are afraid to admit it. [00:13:18] I'm running a discord server for my membership at the WP minute and I'm just like, I love it. It's fantastic. Of course, there's the fear that they get bought up by Microsoft, but you know, I'll deal with that when I get there. How has the marketing gone since it's been, what roughly, well, how many months has it been? [00:13:34] Like five, six  [00:13:35] Alexandra: three months, three months. [00:13:36] we launched every bottle that we launched on the 3rd of June at the beginning of the summer. So we didn't choose this day. We were just ready then, but there'll be less bucket is that's not the best moment for lunch, but whatever.  [00:13:54] Matt: And, and how, and what, what are your plans? Now you, so summertime is famously very low in sales. I mean, just speaking from experience, it's very low in sales. Everyone's out. COVID, I don't know what's happening in your part of the world in America. A lot of people went outside cause it was the summertime and they were ready to ready to go. [00:14:12] And now I, already seeing, even podcast listens are starting to go back up because everyone's like, Hey, summer's done. We're back to work, starting to become a fall, et cetera, et cetera. So anyway, getting to that famously a low season in the summertime. What's your plans now going into sort of October and the holiday season. [00:14:29] Alexandra: Okay though, for us, it was not only is a seminar, but what happens it's and one thing, when you launch a product and you begin, of course, you don't really make enough money to live only on that. So for me, this summer has been super active because I had tons of. Freelance work, and really, really there's been some more heavy peer relationship. [00:14:52] My carrier, it was terrible. So I didn't take holidays or nothing, but we could not really work more on the things, but that's good [00:15:00] because I realized that, okay, that's really. I crave and want to work on, and realize that, okay, it's, that's my baby. I really want to work on that. So now I'm going to really put my, my, my, all my time on that and Paulina too. [00:15:15] So we realized.  [00:15:17] Matt: up the role? How do you split up the responsibilities before you continue? How do you split the responsibilities? Who does, what on the. [00:15:22] Alexandra: Okay. We are both developers and designers . Paulina is is better than me at something sad, debugging and tracking documentation. She's really great developer. And. 100% the proper, and she's designed design to me, I'm a developer, but I also, as a business side I'm more extrovert ones that like yes, to talk to here in podcast she will do blog posts and they will do videos too, to show you the, but the great thing is we agree on most of the things and and we. [00:15:54] It has been a flow since the. [00:15:55] beginning. And I think that's very rare and very precious to to have, so we didn't think it, it just thing has been flowing between us. So now we talk, okay. I do that, that then Yeah. So marketing. Market neither her or neither me. So we have the Bridgette we are, which is, she is great. [00:16:15] And we really love her feeders that somebody was part of the team. She's taking care of Twitter. And I have my life partner, Darko is taking care now of SEO, of main marketing of all that. We are preparing that now, because we realize it's not enough to have a good product. You have to promote, you have to market because. [00:16:41] This is baby doesn't work alone. [00:16:43] Matt: Yeah. [00:16:43] Alexandra: So we, we had a really lot of sales of first month Zan. Yes. [00:16:47] July, August. And as you say, yes, summer is really calm, even in the tweaking, the matching subscription it began to get accepted. At first is really dead. So yes, we have already things to do, do a, we are planning to do also webinars making these team and make some tutorials to meet. [00:17:08] Matt: W I think one of the hot trends now besides getting acquired from, from like hosting companies. Cause it seems like all these plugging companies here now are just getting acquired by bigger players is as knocking on the door of like, a hosting company maybe like a strata WP who focuses on like headless WordPress or static WordPress, stuff like that. [00:17:31] What about that route? Have you been thinking about, maybe I can do. Even like this free theme as a framework. I know some people don't like that word, but bring it in as a framework to a hosting company, be like, Hey, partner up with us, include this as part of your suite of services for your hosting company or for your hosting customers. [00:17:50] And then, oh, by the way, just let them know that we have a pro version if they, if they want something else. Is that, is that something that is maybe too far off or like not on the radar yet? Or is that  [00:17:59] Alexandra: [00:18:00] Oh, [00:18:00] Matt: want to. [00:18:02] Alexandra: I have not think about it, but it can be an idea. you you'll give me ideas. I'm very close from WP and gene because of course , that was at Gatsby. Karen Mason I'm, I'm, I'm really close to them towards the folks that work there. I was thinking, I was thinking. I was very inspired by by Genesis and studio press, but the way of doing things. [00:18:27] And I think the people that can use it, it's, people's that want quality. We want things that don't do, it's not a multi popper films. I can Tim forest, not as I do one things they do well. And we have themes for everything and also. This is the type of people that use it. They're like even if they don't 3d codes, they like to. [00:18:52] enter in code and, and modify things themselves. [00:18:56] So, for me, it's a, it's a great great model. And I was working with Genesis when I was in WordPress. I was I was a Genesis developer too. So, and so and WP engine as all noses to your breasts themes that Brian Gardner now is that WP engine two. So I don't know if say I, if there is ideas that come, why not now we are beginning. [00:19:18] So we will see. Yes, everything is open. [00:19:22] Matt: So we've talked a lot about like how to develop these themes or like how you thought about the development of it and like Gatsby and JavaScript and all the stuff in the WordPress world when it comes to marketing, understanding who your customer is, is one of the most critical pieces. You've mentioned like Genesis and studio. [00:19:41] That crowd of users, they were all fairly technical. Cause you're doing like hooks and actions, filters, like all these things. And you're always like modifying the functions, PHP file. They w you know, people who were born from those days and that. We're not the people who like guts started using Elementor where all it was, was like a drag and drop interface. [00:19:59] Have you started to really think critically about who your customer is? Is it more technical? Is it more of like an agency that would be purchasing your product and not, sort of somebody who wants to launch a pizza shop website and they're just like, give me Gatsby. Like, they wouldn't even know how to do this yet. [00:20:17] Have you. [00:20:17] Alexandra: Yes, yes, no, I really think it's. More for professionals. I don't say that the professional can advise you to know that they've of people that we wanted. We'd be more an agency, a developer that want to, to enjoys a mix of WordPress where we've we've to It's not, yes. The person, I think who launches pizza, burbs even on know about Gatsby. [00:20:45] So, so yes, and Zay they'll have to be super technical because if you follow our recommendation, you don't need to know coding, but you need to use a console. You need to install, know the [00:21:00] gaps between style, get two of your score to settle, get, and everything is explained. [00:21:06] Every beat of things you Have Right into Consolo into editorial. You it's to be based. So that's why they think of what people of Genesis that and a about three Dar website with all these tutorial or you. [00:21:20] notice recipes. I think this type of people will love to work this way. And it's not code because you don't need to call, but you need to do the things that can afraid some other type of things.  [00:21:34] And then more technical people of course will do much more things than what they have no dice into support of the client. We have. There is people that are already technical and that technical questions at that come here.  [00:21:50] Matt: One of the, I can't remember because time is so elusive these days. I don't know where times time span was, but famously I think like a year ago Matt Mullenweg. Sort of had like a little open dialogue with one of  [00:22:07] Alexandra: bill, man, from from from Netlify.  [00:22:10] Matt: right and about like this whole, like JAMstack versus WordPress, people like people still struggle to get the average person still struggles to get WordPress up and running. Even if they have like a one-click button in their hosting panel, they still are challenged with that. JAMstack is still going through. [00:22:28] A hundred times more challenging. Like if you ask the normal person to do the console stuff and even maybe some power users, they might struggle with that. Do you see the JAMstack world getting a, getting easier from your point of view? Like, are they making it a little bit easier for folks or look, these are just the things we have to put up with to, to boot up against. [00:22:50] Alexandra: I remember I was talking for people from the Gatsby team and they say, yeah, Is there is a lot of things, that are seemed out there. He seems very struggling, but they I've been observing WordPress. [00:23:03] So it's a good thing. So I think it will take time, but yes, I think it will become JAMstack it's really takings a web, so it would become easier, but it's into their proper things. So. And I think people like me, we develop the themes and that will grow and it will be other people's that will develop morphemes and weave ideas to make it simpler. [00:23:31] And Gatsby will also make things to integrate better with a CMS like WordPress. I think that will come. Yes, honestly, but.  [00:23:41] Matt: When you say JAMstack is, is sort of, winning the web or taking over the web, is there a particular, is it because developers are liking that sort of approach better? Or is there something really powerful for the end user? That like the visitor of the website, the buyer of the product who is in an [00:24:00] e-commerce site or something like that. [00:24:01] Is there something consumer facing that is a real advantage in that? [00:24:07] Alexandra: Yes, it's both. I think, yes. Developers love it, but user, just for example, now I have a. A client. Now we are building a huge website about traveling to know a sort of travel advisor. We are featuring five custom post type featuring that? [00:24:21] People will make a search and they get fitter. We, for many, many criteria's Yeah. For a lot of images. And he didn't know about WordPress. He didn't know about about JAMstack and. I explained him how it goes. He said, oh my God said, solve all my problems. Speed security. Although then, and even if somebody is not technical, show them a Gatsby, your next website and shows the speed and change page is just instantaneous. [00:24:51] And then explain them. The security's improved because we were static website, a hacker jet, and just the face, your website. He will not touch it at the base. And even if your WordPress is down, your city is up, you will not be down if it's static. Then yes. And the speed for SEO. It's crazy. that's super important now and to flexibility. [00:25:14] So you can you can have your content also marketing page, the blog from WordPress, but perhaps you prefer having a Shopify. Oh, big commerce. Even if we have a will covers, so you can have your shop on Shopify you can have some data in a, in a Google sheets and things that come from other API and all that in a consistent theme, in one website. [00:25:43] Matt: Yeah. That's, that's the exciting part. That's what like the whole, the whole like WordPress crashing, but my website still being up, like, that's all you need to tell  [00:25:52] Alexandra: Yes. Okay.  [00:25:54] Matt: I like perfect. That's exactly what a. [00:25:57] Alexandra: Yes. You can crush a WordPress. You can destroy your WordPress and in your files, you're sitting there.  [00:26:04] Matt: All right. So for the listener today, if, if they want to get started with, with Gatsby or with your theme, it's Gatsby, WP themes.com, Gatsby, WP themes.com, go and visit that site. Anything else they should prepare before they had purchased? Like what should they have? Should they have a special hosting account before? [00:26:22] Alexandra: Yes, we have interns on the dock. There is a link, I think, I think, yes. What you should do prepare your computer because he has one of our fears, but it didn't happen. It's they need to [00:26:40] they need to prepare their computer. And nobody has a problem with that and different on mark and on windows. Everything is under the Gatsby, the commendation. So we explain it on our documentation and we link it to get me. So is that. They can do that before buying, because somebody was [00:27:00] suddenly is going to have, oh, is that too complicated for me? [00:27:02] It will not be good. So after that, yes, I can. And then just, they can read the documentation and we are going to Vince is three themes, so they can play with that. It will have nods options, nods comments not also fancy things, but it would be totally, totally usable where they want it to say.  [00:27:28] Matt: Bye. Bye bye. Go buy the theme  [00:27:30] Alexandra: Yes. Exactly. Exactly.  [00:27:33] Matt: WP themes. Calm Alexandra, where else can folks say thanks on the web,  [00:27:40] Alexandra: to say thanks? Oh my yes, we have a Twitter. It's art. WP [00:27:53] Matt: we will link it up in the show notes. We'll have a link. [00:27:58] Alexandra: that's, that's better ESN visits. We have the support website we've circle, which is nice as I can say, can subscribe that and subscribed as a website because this is where we are going to send a free team and also goodies, and also in our newsletter. Now we are going to begin also to inform people about things about JAMstack. [00:28:21] For example, now we have the. Just get to be camp just happen and say announced gods before, which will have SSL, server-side rendering and many things. And of course, as soon as it's stable, we will implement it in, in our themes. [00:28:40] Matt: I love me some server side rendering. Tell ya. I don't know what it does, but it sounds powerful and it sounds fast. And that's what I like. Gatsby WP themes.com. Alexandra. Thanks for doing the show today. Everyone else has report.com.

Hello and welcome to this the 200th Episode with Matt Blumberg, Co-Founder and CEO at Bolster. We get to have a great chat about his career journey from management consulting up to founding Bolster, that is building a business that helps CEOs scale their companies differently...and that starts with talent. We talk about how valuable having independent directors on your companies board is. We talk about the importance of not restricting board members to only people who have been on a corporate board, because that limits the expansion of board diversity for it already is low. We also get to pose the question, how do we retain this gift of time we were given over this last year.

Brandy and I chat about her extra marital affair and the work God has done in her life during the past 10 years since the affair ended. We chat about the unrealistic expectations we often put on our spouse, destructive behavior we use to numb ourselves, the Christlike invitation from her husband, and pressing in to recovery work. 6:08 Brandy shares how her faith journey with Jesus began 10:07 Brandy shares how she and Matt met.  She talks about the early years of their marriage Youth With a Mission (YWAM) Discipleship Training Course Year of Biblical Studies "When God is pursuing you, you can not outrun Him...but I sure tried." "We got married in 1995 and I expected that everything from that point on was going to be exactly as I had planned...We're going to have 2 kids. We're going to have a cat and a dog. a white picket fence and he's going to be the spiritual leader and I'm going to be the Donna Reid type of wife....and that is 100% not what happened." 16:45 Brandy shares some of the warning signs in her personal life and in marriage that she can now see were precursors to her extramarital affair  It boils down to unrealistic expectations..."I had the notion somehow that Matt would be able to meet all my needs." Brandy is an enneagram 4- "I need a ton of validation."  Matt is anenneagram 5.  "He is very much a thinker." "I don't fault myself for having those needs, but I fault myself very much for where I was looking for those needs to be filled." 20:09 Brandy shares about how the affair began.  We chat a little about the danger of thinking, "It will never happen to me." Every Young Woman's Battle Every Young Man's Battle "One day a door opened and we both just decided to walk through it.  And it wasn't anything either of us had planned. It wasn't anything we had set out to do, but it was definitely something...we had both imagined or fancied or fantasized about for years."  23:55 Brandy shares her thought process and ideas about God while involved in the affair "I was running so far from God....Our marriage looked like it was doing fine. Anybody on the outside would have said our marriage was good. And the whole time I am thinking, 'I am living a complete double life, but if God didn't want this to be happening, then why would He allow all of these opportunities for us to keep getting together. He wouldn't allow it, if He didn't want it to be happening. 'So it was the most bizarre justification you can possibly imagine, because I knew God wasn't approving of this relationship, but it didn't seem like He was closing the doors to it either and for some reason that seemed logical to me." 27:30 Brandy shares about when the affair was exposed  SHOW NOTES continued ------------------------------------------- Listen to The Road Home To You Podcast with Brandy and Matt HERE. ------------------------------------------- Follow Grace Enough Podcast on IG and FB --------------------------------------------------------- The Root Collective Affiliate of the Month  Ethically made Shoes and Bags.  A free compliment every time you wear them.

Nasir and Matt discuss the class action suit against Jessica Alba's Honest Company for allegedlyselling products that contained harmful chemicals. Full Podcast Transcript NASIR: Welcome to our podcast where we cover business in the news and add our legal twist. My name is Nasir Pasha. MATT: And I’m Matt Staub. NASIR: And we get to cover your favorite actress today, right? She is an actress, right? MATT: Yeah, and I have something to bring up. She has like a bio on their company site. It’s Jessica Alba and it says, “Golden Globe-nominated actress whose career includes roles in films such as Fantastic Four, blah blah blah… and television shows like Dark Angel, The Office, and Entourage.” When was she on The Office? That’s what I trying to remember. Was that a typo? NASIR: Yeah, it’s a typo. MATT: She’s prone to typos or making mistakes. NASIR: Making mistakes, yeah. MATT: We’ll get down to the bottom of this before the end of the episode. You know, how do you choose the name of your company if you’re starting a new company? You know, there’s a lot of thought that’s put into the name, probably – or at least I would hope. Her company is called Honest – The Honest Company Inc. Started in California in 2011 – maybe a little bit later, 2014? Somewhere in that range. NASIR: Sorry to interrupt. I had to look it up, of course, on The Office. I couldn’t get over it. Apparently, remember there was a movie within the show where Jim and Pam would watch? MATT: That doesn’t count. Yeah. NASIR: She was in that with Jack Black. I guess she was on The Office. MATT: All right. Well, that’s fine. She’s not lying about it but why would that be…? NASIR: How she’s known for? I know. It was like one episode, right? MATT: And that one was tricky, if you remember, because it was I think someone right after the Superb Bowl and they kept billing it as “oh, we have all these big names in this episode with Jack Black, Jessica Alba and all these people” and then we got into the actual episode which was funny. The episode was funny, I’ll give them that. But it was tricky because these actors just being in a separate show. NASIR: It was a little deceiving or dishonest, I would say, no? MATT: Perfect, there you go – dishonest – and that’s what we’re getting to and it is deceiving. It was misrepresentation. Whether it’s intentional or negligent, it was something. NASIR: That is the question. MATT: Here is the problem. So, she has this company that has all these I guess we’ll call them beauty products and products for babies and kids. NASIR: I think they’re trying to expand in different vertical. I mean, they do baby wipes, too. MATT: Oh, I that was the reason it started – because she’s a mom of two and she wanted to have these “safe products” that are not full of all these chemicals like most things out there and that’s fine and that’s why she named it The Honest Company because our products are honestly made without all these things and there’s a whole list of them on the website. And so, one of the them is SLS – this is listing it as sodium lauryl? Do I have the right thing? NASIR: Yeah, it’s a sodium lauryl sulfate. MATT: Okay. Yeah, sodium lauryl sulfate – SLS. NASIR: They’re not selling that. That’s what’s in it. MATT: Just bottles of that. NASIR: They’re selling a laundry detergent that is apparently SLS is a common known chemical. It’s used a lot in soaps and different things like that. It’s a common active ingredient but apparently – for whatever reason – some people say it’s not good so they were basically selling this laundry detergent. If you look at the product, it will list out all the chemicals that it doesn’t have. As we commonly see, we see a list of ingredients. Part of their transparency is they list all the ingredients that it doesn’t have and that’s one of them. MATT: Right, and that’s the whole Honest aspect of it, you know? It’s trying to be honest about things. “We honestly don’t have these chemicals,

Happy Leap Day! We got another great episode to match this special calendar day. Despite their ongoing trials and tribulations, the Salani tribe finally managed to get their act together and put an end to their losing streak. They exited this episode triumphant at both challenges which forced the Manono tribe to confront their own dysfunctions, albeit somewhat less dramatically. With the exit of their first member we see a confirmation of who is actually in control of the men's tribe. Were you disappointed to see a potential, major villain leave so early in the season? Who did you side with on the matter of sharing fire and shelter for access to the boat and fishing gear? Do you think the misfit alliance can hold together to control the destiny of Manono? When is the right time to try to flush out the HII? Do you think they made the right decision in targeting Matt? Here are the tribes after episode 3. Salani:Alicia, Chelsea, Christina, Kat, Kimberly, Monica and Sabrina Manono:Bill, Colton, Greg, Jay, Jonas, Leif, Michael and Troy The women have the momentum now and we both think Colton will get his way and vote of Bill when they lose the next immunity challenge.
