Reality TV Warriors

A David Correos Memorial Meat Platter

Repost a bunch of random memes on your Instagram all the time, because a new decade of Reality TV Warriors begins with Wie is de Mol 2024: Les 9 Atouts du Rik van der Westelaken - and WIDM continues following België's lead and heads back to Mexico! Over these ten weeks, three guys who know exactly what to do to stop the moling happening - Michael, Logan & Bindles - have been recapping and breaking down everything that happens on the show's return to Mexico in our twentieth Mole season, concluding with the reunion and reveal of Anna as L'Atout Secret The Mole!
In this episode - Bindles gets a birthday message, Logan tries to cause panic, we sort of get a shoutout, there is our annual dive into Finale Fashion, a description gets changed, a mystery is solved, no-one respects Rik's authority, the Speed Dating challenge proves to be a sliding doors moment, Fons & Rosario break a cardinal rule, we wonder if they edit Rik to be boring, Logan gets a surprise, there is more unfulfillable Mole money shenanigans, Bindles runs through some hidden clues, there is some by-rote admin, the winners of First Suspicions and the Suspect List are announced and Rocky starts a new charity.
You can see the results of the Bother's Bar Suspect List here - thank you to Thomas for all his hard work building it!
We will see you next Tuesday for Hunted UK Series 7 and on March 28th for De Mol België Season 12!
Please note: This episode is intended on being spoiler-free, but references to any season we have already covered (WIDM 10-11, 14, 17-23 and Renaissance; België 4-11) may be made. This episode may also contain references to WIDM Season 12.
Additional note: Thomas is so mean not letting Michael deduct thirty points off Bindles' score. WHERE IS YOUR LOYALTY?!

My Heart Will Go Fons

Read the room, a book or a word, because a new decade of Reality TV Warriors begins with Wie is de Mol 2024: Les 9 Atouts du Rik van der Westelaken - and WIDM continues following België's lead and heads back to Mexico! Over these ten weeks, three guys who are just so gloriously unimpressed with everything this season - Michael, Logan & Bindles - are recapping and breaking down everything that happens on the show's return to Mexico in our twentieth Mole season, continuing with the ninth episode and elimination of Kees!
In this episode - we disagree on whether it's a final three or four, Rik Seacrests us, we begin with an apology (sort of), there is finally some news about België, Logan workshops a new nickname, there has been some genuine controversy on the Amazing Race subreddit, last week might have been a double execution, a theory is refuted, a dilemma is added to the ziplines, we wonder why we've seen nothing of Fons & Rosario's bondje, the pot proves to be record-breaking, someone gets ruled out, there are the latest updates to the Pool and First Suspicions, Michael reveals if he's going to the finale, the final guesses for who the Mole is are locked in and we wonder what will happen if we're all right all season.
You can play along with this week's Bother's Bar Suspect List here. We will see you next week for the reunion and reveal!
Please note: This episode is intended on being spoiler-free, but references to any season we have already covered (WIDM 10-11, 14, 17-23 and Renaissance; België 4-11) may be made. This episode may also contain references to WIDM Season 3.
Additional note: Anna is the Mole, right? I mean, we could try and build up some intrigue but we're all on for a clean sweep here.
