Make yourself curvy, because we are back for our fifth season of new/old Wie is de Mol episodes - and we're going back to 2011's offering in El Salvador & Nicaragua! Over these ten weeks, three guys who have never been accused of lying to each other calmly - Logan, Michael & Bindles - are recapping and looking back at all that happened on the trip through two countries that we still can't quite believe they visited, continuing with the fourth episode and elimination of Miryanna.
In this episode - we already forget who went home, the health & safety laws of El Salvador prove a little lax, we wonder why Amazing Race has never been to El Salvador or Nicaragua (at least as of the time of recording!), Art gets a lot of airtime, we're blessed to have Soundos & Karin, Bindles tells a joke that will age horribly, Pieter Jan warms up for next week's tour de force performance, there's a tantrum about a flag, we look ahead to some people trafficking, Michael recommends a documentary series, we reveal what Karin wrote in her Molebook, Bindles is on harness watch, Art is woefully unprepared, we reveal how the fog was cleared, Logan's fourth suspicions are locked in and the bus challenge slightly backfired on Production.
Thank you for listening - we will see you next week for Episode 5!
Please note: This season is intended on being spoiler-free, so please watch the episodes along with us. As with our coverage of Seasons 14 & 17, there are no spoilers due to Logan not having seen the season before. However, any season we have already covered (WIDM 10, 14, 17-23 and Renaissance; Belgie 4-11) is fair game though.
Additional note: El Salvador seems like a very fun place to go at this point, mainly because we're about to leave!

Grab a couple of Brita water filter jugs, because we are back for our fifth season of new/old Wie is de Mol episodes - and we're going back to 2011's offering in El Salvador & Nicaragua! Over these ten weeks, three guys who all turned up cosplaying as Jan - Logan, Michael & Bindles - are recapping and looking back at all that happened on the trip through two countries that we still can't quite believe they visited, continuing with the third episode and elimination of Horace.
In this episode - we wonder if this is a contender for the title of messiest episode ever, Logan forgets who goes, Pieter Jan no-sells the first execution, we wonder how tall Pepijn is, Chain Gang gets a Salvadorean adaptation, we try not to give Papa Bear any ideas, Pieter Jan asks to be a picture, Art has potentially been getting tips from Michelle, Logan spots an error, we try and work out how the Mole would sabotage the Hotel challenge, Production seems to be misleading us, Pieter Jan gets excited about sacrifice, we wonder if the public were clamouring for the return of this episode's eliminated player, Logan reveals his suspicions and Bindles admits muting himself.
Thank you for listening - we will see you next week for Episode 4!
Please note: This season is intended on being spoiler-free, so please watch the episodes along with us. As with our coverage of Seasons 14 & 17, there are no spoilers due to Logan not having seen the season before. However, any season we have already covered (WIDM 10, 14, 17-23 and Renaissance; Belgie 4-11) is fair game though. This episode also contains a reference to the Mole in Celebrity Mole: Hawaii.
Additional note: Jan continues to be a complete enigma. He's baffling.

Start swiping on Pepijndr, because we are back for our fifth season of new/old Wie is de Mol episodes - and we're going back to 2011's offering in El Salvador & Nicaragua! Over these ten weeks, three guys who are constantly amazed by gherkins - Logan, Michael & Bindles - are recapping and looking back at all that happened on the trip through two countries that we still can't quite believe they visited, continuing with the second episode and elimination of Hanna.
In this episode - we issue a minor correction about cannibalism, Logan's forced to prove how observant he is, a WIDM trivia question is answered, the Dating Bio challenge proves fruitful to write introductions, we channel someone who enjoys topography, we learn some new things about Horace Cohen (known by the family name Horace Cohen), there's a dive into WIDM History as we try and remember when "LASER GAME!" became a thing, Miryanna gets the credit she deserves, Jan ruins haybales, Bindles is distracted by music, Horace's altruism is called into question, Pieter Jan channels his inner Probst, we wonder how anyone can hate Art, Michael starts running a joke into the ground, Logan calls for a murder, the Living Picture challenge is a bit too easy to sabotage, there's another wonderful bit of Pieter Jan dickery, Horace says the line, we explain what makes a good Mole host, we still hate superfans, no-one cares that Hanna goes home, Logan reveals his suspects and Bindles has a weird thing about Hanna.
Thank you for listening - we will see you next week for Episode 3!

Additional note: For years, we've wondered when he'd say it and finally Horace gave us what we wanted. And by that, of course we mean "the revelation that New York is actually Dutch".

Keep It Simple, Stupid, because we are back for our fifth season of new/old Wie is de Mol episodes - and we're going back to 2011's offering in El Salvador & Nicaragua! Over these ten weeks, three guys who often wonder what the heck kind of nonsense they've gotten themselves into by covering Mole seasons - Logan, Michael & Bindles - will be recapping and looking back at all that happened on the trip through two countries that we still can't quite believe they visited, beginning with the premiere episode and elimination of no-one.
In this episode - we explain why we made the extra effort to do this season, warzones make Michael laugh, Bindles has a Salvadorean friend, we look ahead to some people trafficking, we explain why Dutch people don't tend to speak Spanish, the bus ride threatens to give Papa Bear Gilles de Coster some ideas, Jan doesn't know what a goat is, we discuss the weird claims to fame that this cast have, Pieter Jan doesn't care anymore, Logan gets a new opinion, Michael finds common ground with Art, there are flashbacks to Hong Kong, Horace tempts fate, we finally discuss the first iteration of the Path of Temptation, Australia 6 gets (a small amount of) praise, we wonder who would have gone home, the production team changes, Logan locks in his first set of suspicions (with some exclusions), Bindles teases some hidden clues and accusations are thrown about errors that have already been made.
Thank you for listening - we will see you next week for Episode 2!
Please note: This season is intended on being spoiler-free, so please watch the episodes along with us. As with our coverage of Seasons 14 & 17, there are no spoilers due to Logan not having seen the season before. However, any season we have already covered (WIDM 10, 14, 17-23 and Renaissance; Belgie 4-11) is fair game though. There are also brief references to Qui est La Taupe and Mole Australia 6.
Additional note: Oh, we're only just getting started - our final season of the year begins now!
