Most importantly -- America's couple Vince and Morgan still survive.We dive into all of the big storylines from the last week, Keanu's ability to survive through it all, whether Ashley or Ava have a chance to win and why a Vince/Morgan final two is the most poetic and interesting result left on the board.Also, your listener questions & Danielle's impromptu live reading of Johnny Galecki's spot for Royal Kingdom.Follow Hey Julie on Bluesky and submit your questions ⁠⁠@HeyJulieBB⁠⁠.bsky.social, our ⁠⁠Discord server⁠⁠, or email us ⁠heyjuliebigbrother@gmail.com⁠!Watch Hey Julie on ⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠Follow Brett ⁠⁠@BrettRader⁠⁠.bsky.socialFollow Danielle ⁠⁠@DingDongDani.bsky.social

Danielle & Brett are reunited for their birthday week and try to dissect what's been going on with this season of Big Brother. A decent comp threat in Adrian was sent home but it still sparks larger questions about the house's power structure in general. Mickey & Morgan seem to be the engine behind most of the house's power dynamics, but they hate each other? And they're best friends. And they have a final 3 with Jimmy...who they also hate. Kathrine and Lauren are inseparable...except they want to keep their games completely separate.The only constant is that Keanu & Kelley will be nominees consistently until they remove themselves via veto, BB Blockbuster or are voted out of the house entirely -- all of which is leading to what feels like a boring stretch in the season.So listen as we try to understand the house power structure, say goodbye to Adrian, wonder if the Mastermind will ever return plus share some thoughts about Superman, Happy Gilmore 2 and The Matrix.Follow Hey Julie on Bluesky and submit your questions ⁠⁠@HeyJulieBB⁠⁠.bsky.social, our ⁠⁠Discord server⁠⁠, or email us ⁠heyjuliebigbrother@gmail.com⁠!Watch Hey Julie on ⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠Follow Brett ⁠⁠@BrettRader⁠⁠.bsky.socialFollow Danielle ⁠⁠@DingDongDani.bsky.social

With Dani radio silent this week, Brett wears the HOH robe for a full length podcast about Week 2 of BB27.Amy got her final jab in at Jimmy as she exited the house, but was it too little, too late, and too quiet? Is Vince playing too much game with every single person? And where will Lauren stand after the dust settles on Week 3 and important decisions must be made. Also, the Friday night Taylor-Derrick episode of Big Brother: did anyone watch it?All those questions & more on a stream-of-consciousness episode of Hey Julie.Follow Hey Julie on Bluesky and submit your questions ⁠⁠@HeyJulieBB⁠⁠.bsky.social, our ⁠⁠Discord server⁠⁠, or email us ⁠heyjuliebigbrother@gmail.com⁠!Watch Hey Julie on ⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠Follow Brett ⁠⁠@BrettRader⁠⁠.bsky.socialFollow Danielle ⁠⁠@DingDongDani.bsky.social

Brett & Danielle are back to recap the first two episodes of Big Brother 27. Yeah, yeah Rachel Reilly came back, but it's really about this cast of newbies who are all playing hard in some way or another. Jimmy is spinning in circles about Rachel. Amy somehow played the "apprentice" twist very welll...until she played her way right on the block and Kelley has an intriguing strategy about how she wants to treat being on the block.All of that plus your listener questions and dramatic retellings of the houseguests' introduction packages on today's pod.Follow Hey Julie on Bluesky and submit your questions ⁠⁠@HeyJulieBB⁠⁠.bsky.social, our ⁠⁠Discord server⁠⁠, or email us ⁠heyjuliebigbrother@gmail.com⁠!Watch Hey Julie on ⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠Follow Brett ⁠⁠@BrettRader⁠⁠.bsky.socialFollow Danielle ⁠⁠@DingDongDani.bsky.social

Dani & Brett are back for another episode, first diving into the latest on Survivor. Chrissy was sent to the jury this week.
