This week on Unanchored, we’re recapping Episode 16 of Below Deck Down Under and the drama on board is getting totally out of hand 👀

From broken bro code to a literal middle-of-the-night spiral, the boat is feeling smaller and the tension is getting higher. We’re Team Eddy all the way this week, and we have a lot of thoughts on certain crew members playing games.

We’re talking:

• Jenna’s late-night, door-slamming spiral 

• Ben completely breaking the bro code hours after giving Eddy a pep talk 

• Eddy walking in on the ultimate guest cabin betrayal (and Captain Jason’s heartwarming hug) 

• João and Daisy finally making things official ... but do we actually feel the chemistry?  

We also share our reaction to next week’s teaser: the return of Rainbow Richard and Ben pushing for a shocking galley promotion 👀

Plus, we both agree on a unanimous, very snakey "throw them overboard" pick of the week 🚤
