Okay I’m a little behind, I just got done with episode 5’s recap. Ready to hand my stan card to Huck! He’s so well-spoken and intelligent and mature (even though he’s climbing on top of the showers with Aaron... but cmon we were all teenagers once lol)

Random question: If you had to choose one law of karma to represent your team, which would it be? And why. Also if you had to chose one law to represent this season as a whole, which one would it be?

Random question: If you had to choose one law of karma to represent your team, which would it be? And why. Also if you had to chose one law to represent this season as a whole, which one would it be? Good questions.
I would say the best law to represent this season as a whole is Patience. The strategy employed by the top teams of letting the other teams win the early challenges and set themselves up as targets (but still being influential in terms of suggesting teams that were threats) required quite a bit of Patience. I could also make an argument for Connection, because the top teams really did do a good job of connecting both as partners and with the other teams. But I like Patience the most.
As for a law that I would like to represent my team, I would have to say Responsibility. I really respect those who take ownership of their decisions and actions, and I also appreciate the power of effectively delegating responsibilities in a team or group situation. In a game as well as in life, you will never hear me say "I don't take responsibility at all"; if I don't have responsibility for something I don't put myself into a position where people expect responsibility from me. If I couldn't have Responsibility, my runner-up laws would be Inspiration (seems the most unbounded of all the laws as well as the most intellectual) and Growth (one should never stop growing in terms of learning, understanding, and love, and I have to give a shout-out to Green as my personal favorite color to wear).
Also, neonhusky1011, thanks for posting the Eli Mack interview; it was really good. I thought the interviewer was a little bit awkward at times, but that didn't detract from the interview as a whole.

Only one more Karma podcast left 😭 I know the YouTube views are not as high as Rob’s other podcasts but I hope Rob renews them for season 2

I love your reasoning. For me, the season would be represented by either patience or growth. I personally picked growth because I feel like everyone on this season has grow a lot, and changed for the better. For example, Skyla in the beginning of the game was not happy to have Jack as her partner. But she has grown to Jack and worked with what she had to pull through. And to be honest, I learned from Jack it's not always about winning challenges, but also being able to play the game and and always be in the sweet spot among the teams. Another example, is that Adren and Presley we're not pleased to be teamed up, and they were very different people with different personalities, but regardless of them not being in the game for long. I feel like they both learned more about each other and learned to respect each other. As for a law to rep my team, I would personally pick Giving because as queen Avon said "In the game of Karma, you have to give in order to receive", And also giving applies to a number of things in not only in Karma, but in life. Everytime you give, you personally will feel something inside knowing that you are putting out good energy into the world, and one way or another, you will get it back

Also I don't know if anyone cares, but Ted Roberts Creative updated the Karma section, apparently the previous intro scheme was only a pitch that was not accepted: tedrobertscreative.com/hbo-max-karmaAlso the company that made the promo package, Kill 2 Birds, added a Karma section to their website, and there's also is a little ad promo. www.kill2birds.tv/hbo-max-karma

Yes, good points, I definitely wouldn't argue with Growth for the season either.
Giving as a law is really interesting. I wish there had been some challenge where the teams had to give each other something (and something good, not just water in their tube or sandbags to eliminate them). Yes, the Karma coins and medallions are given but I feel like they could do more.
