The party guy walked into the studio. "What's up, bro?" he greeted as he shook Josh's hand before lounging in the chair.
"Fine," Josh sighed, "But at least sit upright in the chair."
"Oh, sorry. Let's get this interview on the road, dude!"
"Straight to the point. I like that. First up is Ezekiel, who you tried to stick up for in the first elimination."
"Well, yeah. I mean, the guy was a bit weird, but I figured what he was saying about girls being weaker than guys was something he just learned from his folks. Either that or he was trying to be a gentleman but it came out way wrong. I tried giving the guy a leg, but the dude just buried himself deeper, so I wasn't shocked that he got booted over Courtney. But the dude went from a little weird to super-creepy during World Tour. I heard him and Bridge are pals and is even helping the guy out, so at least he's becoming human again."
"So, next comes Eva. It was confirmed you voted her in the merge."
"Yeah. She was tough competition and kinda mean. I can't really say we speak."
"Next is Noah. He claims you two never really talked."
"Really? I was sure I talked to him in the Ridonculous Race. Maybe he wasn't paying attention. Then again most of the dude's attention was either on Emma or Owen. But he's still good deep down."
"Okay. We'll move onto Justin. Any thoughts on him?"
"Well, the guy really knows how to look good. But I can't say we're buds. We had a little fight regarding the whole cheating thing and we haven't talked since."
"We got the same from him. Next are Katie and Sadie. Any thoughts on them?"
"Uh, honestly, I can hardly tell those two apart. Can't say we talked much."
"I guess we'll move onto the next camper." Geoff looked at Tyler's photo. "Uh, not much to say on him," he admitted, "But I gotta compliment his commitment to Lindsay and how little bumps his relationship with her had. Plus, the dude can take a hit. A lot of them."
"Can't argue with you there," Josh replied. "Next up is one of the zanier campers. Any opinion on Izzy?"
"Izzy's definitely a bit zany like you said, but I think she's the good kind of zany. She just came to have a good time like I did. I was a bit hard on her in Action. Then again, that wasn't my best season, and I was the first boot! But anyway, Izzy is still a good person underneath all the zany layers."
"Oh, interesting. Next comes Cody. Any thoughts on him?"
"Uh, not much. The dude mainly stuck with Gwen or Trent or Owen. But he's still pretty cool."
"Okay. Did you interact with Beth any?"
"Just a bit on World Tour's Aftermath. I admit it was a tad bad of me to let Blainley back instead of her, but I wanted to give that woman some payback for sending Bridge to Siberia! I did speak with Beth about it after the show, and she was pretty chill with it. Other than that, I can't say we talk much."
"Ah. So, onto the next camper and quite the decisive one indeed." Geoff looked at Courtney's picture. "That girl is all work and no play," he began. "It's like she never learned how to relax in her life. But she didn't deserve to get cheated out in Island. But she kinda spiraled after that. I mean, I know people give me flack about me in Action, but Courtney was awful there. World Tour and All Stars are kind of a mess for her, but aren't they a mess for everyone? Still, Bridge seems to trust her enough to invite her to our wedding, so I guess there's still some good in her, I suppose."
"Interesting," Josh said. "So, next comes Harold, who you and Duncan bullied for a bit."
"Whoa, dude. We were just teasing him. And the only time things got a bit far was when he was leaving her dirty panties all over the cabin. We even told him we'd stop if he simply admitted the truth, but he was just so stubborn. He can also have quite the ego to him and brag a whole bunch, which can get on the nerves. I don't really hang out with the dude these days."
"Okay. Next comes Trent. Any thoughts on him?"
"The dude's a pretty chill guy, except when it comes to love, then he's a bit nutty. Still, he's a guy I wanna party with, you know?"
"So another positive one. We'll save your girlfriend for later, so next comes Lindsay. Any thoughts on her?"
"We didn't really chat much, but she sounds like a sweet girl. It's a shame she's one of the dudes that got the short end of the stick in the show."
"Speaking of which, let's move onto that unlucky guy, shall we?" Geoff smiled at DJ's picture. "The guy's a total sweetheart," he began. "From helping me with my crush on Bridgette to stepping up for the Bass...I'd say he's one of the most selfless people in the group. I'll admit I was a bit hard on the dude during Action's Aftermaths, but we cleared that mess up afterwards. We're still great pals, though there was this incident with his girlfriend."
"Incident?" Josh asked.
"I called Sarah 'dude' once and she went BALLISTIC. DJ had to pull me to safety. Apparently, the girl was bullied by some guys in school and taunted her with the word 'dude', so I kinda have to be careful not to say it around her."
"Ah. So, I don't recall you and Leshawna interacting any."
"Not really. The only time we really spoke was in the third Action Aftermath, and that was not my finest moment. But we can still be chill with each other."
"Okay. You've spent a good amount of time with Duncan. What do you think of him?"
"He's okay. He puts on the whole tough guy act, but he's actually fairly good deep down. I heard that most people act all tough so that they don't have anybody messing with them. Not entirely sure he's one of those guys, but it's a good possibility. However, his love life brought out some of his worst traits, like in Action with Courtney and in World Tour with Gwen. I heard the dude has another girl now, but I think he's better off single. Better that way, you know."
"Oh, interesting. Next comes the girl who said was the hottest in the show, Heather."
"N-no! No! That was just something stupid I said. And even if she was, I wouldn't bother dating her. She was totally awful in the show. She's one of the few people that I don't want at one of the shindigs I throw."
"Another Heather hater. Not too surprising. This next one should be interesting, though." Geoff smiled at Gwen's picture. "She's actually pretty cool to hang around," he started. "I totally get why Bridge considers her a bestie. Gwen mainly tried to keep to herself when the show first started. I first tried talking with her in the boot camp episode, but she just shot me down. I tried again and again, but we only started to connect in that three-armed episode. After the challenge ended, we even made s'mores together."
"But didn't you two have a little falling out afterwards?" Josh inquired.
"A bit, yeah. But Owen did offer a sick party. Kinda hard to turn that down. Come Action, Gwen and I were okay with each other. Regarding the Gwent blah-blah-blah, she was totally in the right to dump him. The dude was throwing challenges for her without even TALKING to her! However, that stupid ego trip I went on in the next few Aftermaths drove us apart again. Luckily, Gwen and I soon patched things up. She even comes to visit me and Bridge on some of her free days."
"Pretty sweet. So, next up is Owen, who had similar 'vibes' to you."
"Yeah, and a monster appetite. I'd say we were pretty close buds. We also shared something else: we both let the fame of TD change us for the worse. With me being Captain Hollywood and him being Chris's spy in Action, we kinda relayed our experiences to one another so it wouldn't happen to us again. I was super-stoked that he and I were competing in Ridonculous Race, and we chatted a bit between episodes. Gotta say, that show was definitely more relaxed than TD. I'm still good friends with the big guy."
"Not too surprising. Next comes Sierra, someone I don't recall you competing with."
"Nah. We weren't together on the show, but I saw her actions through the World Tour Aftermaths. She definitely did some questionable stuff, like in Paris and China. But she also did some sweet stuff like helping Cody to Hawaii. Honestly, I don't hate her, but I'm not one of her biggest fans, either."
"So next comes Alejandro, the other World Tour newbie."
"That guy is AWFUL, even more than Heather ever was! At least everyone knew Heather was bad and that she didn't try to hide it well. But Al hid his evil ways behind a very convincing shield of niceness. From the way he messed with the girls to taking advantage of the guys and all the backstabbing...yeah, I'm no fan of his."
"Again, not too shocking. So now we move onto your love interest." Geoff smiled at Bridgette's picture. "Ah, Bridge," he sighed. "From the moment she first arrived, I just felt that...spark between us. I tried to hit it off with her, but I was giving off a few awkward vibes at the time. But thanks to DJ's help, me and Bridge soon got closer. I remember one of our best times was when we went swimming during the trust episode. Then came that hide and seek challenge and Duncan suggesting we boot Bridge. I just...I couldn't bring myself to do it. She was my girl! I...I should've done something to keep her there, like convince the dudes to vote someone else. But at least I got a chance to tell her goodbye."
"Bridgette said that the first thing you did when you were booted was give her a kiss," Josh recalled.
"Yeah, I did. We both rushed over and had our first smooch. It was like the ones in the movies, man."
"But things weren't all kisses. You two were in some rough patches. First was you in Action's Aftermaths."
"It's sadly true. I let the fame go to my head and was a jerk to all my buds. But what hurt most was when Bridge decided to dump me in the third Aftermath. I felt truly hurt. When I look back, I'm grateful that she and the others snapped me back to my senses or who knows what might've happened? I could've become Chris or Blainley!"
"Speaking of which, time to move onto World Tour. You must've been hurt when you saw Bridgette flirting with Alejandro before they locked lips."
"Oh, totally. Seeing your girl cheat on you like that..." Geoff wiped away a tear. "That season is still a sore spot for both of us," he explained. "It didn't help that Mildred kept sticking her nose in it. We were able to patch things up and chat a bit after the cameras stopped rolling. Things started looking up...until Blainley sent bridge to Siberia. I swore that I would make that woman pay no matter how it was done, from revealing embarrassing stuff to making sure she wasn't paid. But the best punishment has to be her dealing with Chris and the others on the show. Yes, it was a little cheap, but it was worth it!"
"I can tell. So Bridgette mentioned a few more details about you and her in the spin-off...with you becoming a dad."
"Yeah. While we were vacaying in Australia, she told me the news. And when I saw the flyer for Ridonculous Race, I thought it might be a good way of winning some money to help support the new kid. Since Bridgette couldn't come, I decided to bring my bud Brody along. We also agreed to keep the news on the down-low so people wouldn't swarm Bridgette. After me and Brody were safe in the Australia episode, I went to check on Bridge after the cameras stopped rolling, and I was just in time to see my son getting born. It was one of the joyous times of our lives, dude! Bridgette and I are still together and have five little dudes and dudettes around the house." Geoff gave a happy sigh. "And I wouldn't trade it for anything in the whole world," he said.
"I can certainly tell," Josh commented. "So, did you meet up with the other two casts?"
"Actually, a few years after the spin-off ended, I decided to host a party for everyone from TD and gave them invites. Of course, not everyone was keen on coming, but there was definitely a party. From Gen 2, B was pretty chill even if he doesn't speak, Dakota and Sam are cool, Zoey's sweet, Lightning's great outside of a competition, Brick is another good one and Cameron may be a bit scrawny, but man, does he know how to make a mean cheese dip! From Gen 3, I met up with Jasmine and, well, I personally don't hold her in high regard as everyone else does. Shawn and Beardo were great, and that Max dude was hilarious. I actually met Leonard in Ridonculous Race and he's a pretty cool dude, even if he can get a bit deep in his fantasy world."
"Wow! That's quite a lot. So, onto the last question: what do you think of the new cast?"
"I like nearly everybody there, but Zee has to be my personal favorite."
"Okay. That does it. Thank you for your time, Geoff. Best wishes to your new family."
"Thanks, dude. Glad to be here." Geoff walked out of the studio. "Let's see who's next..." Josh muttered as he looked at his clipboard. He gasped with excitement. "Yes! Finally!"
The party boy is done! So, Geoff mostly has positive stuff, like with DJ, Gwen, Owen, or neutral stuff, like with Tyler and Sierra. I can also see him befriending quite a few people from the other casts, even Leonard.
Next will the sister with attitude who got booted by a parrot and has a sweet spot for nerds with mad skills. Until next time, this is Dunsparce519 saying enjoy and have a good day.
