once did you have to audition with other
kids or alone how many kids auditions

the second one's you're not you're more
comfortable cuz you've seen the people
who audition you
already fun educational allinone Zoom
Cafe yummy treat fun to make fun to be
the first year I tried out I did that
rap I was walking around in school one
day and I noticed a boy that looks sort
of great what I thought was the hardest
part was that you only have like a
minute to do it no you got itad when
you're out with someone you keep
thinking about somebody you
bed I was so nervous when they told me
to sing cuz I didn't even know what I
should sing so I'm like so I got up
there I'm still not sure what I'm going
to sing and I'm like I don't know any
words songs
I remember in one of the editions we had
to like uh make a product like our own
product tired of those marbles oh stinky
marbles now I have like bigger ball that
bounces I did purple hair gel this is
our new stay hair gel buy it and if you
buy now then you could you will get a
free hair brushing hair brush I just
happened to have my pocketbook with me
and I had a comb in it and so I made
like the Kimmy Kimmy Tonga comb or
something like that there a comb that
grows it's a comb that grows your hair
longer s s longer the magical comb that
grows your hair longer I once had short
hair but when I use the S S songer the
comb that grows your hair longer Look at
me now I did veggos hey kids have you
had trouble eating your veggies we'll
try veggie O's the sugary but
nutritious vegetable
cereal hey when I made it back on the
and I just finished my last my last
audition I was like whatever I don't I
don't know if I did bad or
good I'm in school on Monday I'm walking
home I turn around the corner and I see
those balloons hanging up across the
tree and zoom
colors I walk home with my friend I'm
like dude I got to
go best day of my life like so
happyself so happy the same thing
happened to me I got off the bus we on
the balloons thing but I got home we
called the producer and the producer
says we'd like to invite you to be on
this season cast I like oh my God I was
so in the beginning we didn't even know
each other well except for Kyle singing
and Franchesco who were together last
year here welcome to the r Time Diner
where things can be any finer what's
wrong with this lady but the rest of us
were new and we had to start building
our team so our producers send us off to
Camp's
Zoom well it's sort of a camp but it's
not a real camp we went to learn how to
be a team that was the second day we've
seen each other I know and we didn't
even like know each other prac I just
sleep on i t with girls I had no clue
who you guys this is
everybody Bri yeah and Mara and Brian
were really good
coaches how many tents do we need two
two so you're going to have one boy set
one girl sent yeah that was probably one
of the first teamw things we did
together like where we all had to work
together I know like I didn't even know
Nick at that time cuz I remember that
was like the second time I met him or
something setting up the T like the
first thing we actually did on the camp
CH was the first thing we actually like
got together and had to that was part of
building our team because when you're
working on a zoom side or a zoom
challenge you don't go and you have to
learn how to do it yourself pick this
spot because it's not very lumpy and
there aren't any thorns in the bushes
nearby we Pi this spot because we
thought it was suitable for us we're
like down away from everyone we're
secluded by ourselves so it's pretty
cool okay just so you know this is a
drainage PP it's all rock everyone I'm
stepping a rock oh and then where we
chose to put our tent it was like this
little ditch thing that we were like ooh
that's a cool dish and then we realized
there were so many rocks there so when
we went to lay down we're like oh this
is
sweet we're trying to kind of build the
tent up with the purple um sticks if you
have the basic image we can um try to
make the T well we're attempting to
actually put this tent up and we really
needed the help yes nice oh we made out
pretty well after a Little Help from
Brian but I we would have got it
ourselves we got it done pretty fast
though we didn't have time to help the
girls and stuff I know cuz we were like
done and then like the girls were like
how do you put this together our tent
was like bigger and better than the boys
tent but we got the good tent we got the
good tent they got a cheap let's get our
in here better when we get our stuff
in oh yeah really know each other cuz we
work as a team now we're a
team I think we all fit together pretty
fast
oh has do a t SP on we had our first
challenge the wall oh so you guys
remember the wall what you have to do is
get your group
from this side here all the way over the
wall that was kind of painful you
cannot reach on to here and use the tree
to climb and frustrating no more than
two people at the top on the other side
well it was fing for you guys cuz you
guys can ret turning Zoomers
are actually not allowed to use their
voices um yeah wait what the old people
were already on the show and they
already knew how to work with a team and
the four of us had never worked together
so we had to learn how to work together
once the returning Zoomers get over that
wall is that if we talk then no oh all
right you guys want you gather over here
and start talking strategy those of you
who can talk CH like this it's the
opposite I remember I think it was like
Nick that came up with this whole
holding thing just all locked our hands
so that it made like a
square I'm not moving then we just
boosted them up not going anywhere yeah
okay you think you can pull yourself
up that was nice who's going to be last
and he's because he's the biggest wait
but how you going to get up yourself he
lift you up and then if he lift you up
who LIF him up he's already
gonna oh he grabbed you yes I see okay
come oning come
on hey noran are you next y did you ever
like think that you weren't going to be
able to do it at sometimes yeah the W
was kind of slippery cuz it was painted
and I was like oh how are we going to do
this nice swing the most painful part
was when it was just
okay okay he's there he's there when I
was the last one there I couldn't figure
out any other way than just trying to
jump so nor what are you going to
suggest my idea was the
sweater try so try really hard we need
to think of a different strategy we were
told to like think of a different
strategy I'm like I can't think of a
different strategy guys over there
trying and help Kyle think of another
way what can you
do we both hold
G
[Music]
yeah oh
come
on come
on
my after it's all over that that was my
most memorable uh challenge I thought
that was the cool one I definitely
thought that that was that's a great way
to get us working
together I was so tired after the wall I
couldn't wait to
eat y
what you guys going to do put it all
in oh that was cool it's working you
guys wo we have
made ni been really fun because we've
been hanging out like best friends and
we made a fire and we're doing all
ourselves it's the best part so it's

fold it all up and you drop it on the
fire so simple
