Pay attention while six people are doing everything at once, because we are back for 2022's Wie is de Mol season! Over these ten weeks, two guys who are highly motivated to piss you off - Logan & Michael - are recapping, analysing and speculating all about Wie is de Mol's season in Albania, continuing with the sixth episode and heartbreaking elimination of Sahil.
In this episode, Michael gets smug as he got something right, the newest Listener Correction of the Week leads to more discussion about a problem from last week's episode, we ask for a big suspect to go home soon, we get the answer to a query we had in Week 4, Production finally start learning from Belgie, Michael explains why he suspects Laetitia so much, we question why Kim & Thomas would lie to Sahil, there's another complaint about Production still not thinking about challenges seriously, we explain why we wouldn't have held onto exemptions for so long and there are the latest updates to our Pool, First Suspicions and Weekly Suspicions.

Start your own family tradition at the end of a holiday, because we are back for our second season of new/old Wie is de Mol recaps! Over these nine weeks, two guys who have spent the past three years unravelling Mole seasons - Logan & Michael - are looking back on our second old season of Wie is de Mol - 2017's offering in Oregon, concluding with the final two episodes, elimination of Diederik and reveal of Thomas as Mole!
In this episode, Logan finally breaks his streak, we spot a bit of irony in the record schedule, Jochem reverts to lazy stereotypes, Michael does the traditional "fact-check the host at the end of a season" segment, our two bonus Moles this year are compared, Jochem is frustrating, Michael reveals what tipped him off in 2017, we find the one show we can't watch together, there's questions about Suriname, the podcast becomes educational, someone steals Michael's schtick, Thomas backs us up, we get the Jeroen jokes out of our systems and Logan finds out where he would have seen Thomas since.
You can find us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram & YouTube or you can tweet Michael & Logan directly! We will see you next year for Wie is de Mol 2022!
Please note: This season is intended on being spoiler-free, so please watch the episodes along with us. Unlike our previous trips back to Mole History, this season does not feature a spoiler section at the end of the podcast, as Logan hasn't seen it! Any season we have already covered (18-21; Renaissance) are fair game though - and as someone from this season did appear on Renaissance, there may be some references to their placement in that season. This episode also contains a reference to the Second American Mole's actions and a discussion about the winner of the sixth Dutch season.
Additional note: Sanne is a very worthy winner! We'll see you soon!
