Show Notes
The Meow Meow joins the Memory Wall. Enzo Palumbo revisits both of his runs to the final three — the Brigade season that made him a Big Brother name, and the All-Star season that ended with him sitting next to Cody Calafiore and a 9-0 vote. He walks through how he built the final two seat he knew Cody would honor, what he'd say to that jury now, and why he still thinks about the night the Brigade cut Britney. Plus: the BB28 premiere cameo he had to keep quiet about, where "the Meow Meow" actually came from, his Challenge USA final, and the Amazing Race alliance he wishes he'd made.
