What was up with the racial slur & Julie Chen comment?

MF:  Hey Braden.  I know it's' been a long day for ya.

BRADEN:  I love this stuff.

MF:  & I know you've been asked this a million times but OK.

BRADEN:  Where are you from & who are you & what is this for?

MF:  My name is Jackie & I am from MediaFiends.com.  So I know, I think you had every right to be upset with Lydia & Kevin, but why did you bring it to a racial level?

BRADEN:  Right.  Are we starting with that question first?

MF:  Yeah cuz I figure let's get the hard ones out of the way.

BRADEN:  Ok.  No problem.  Just the way they were acting.  They were jumping around & waving their hands at me.  I grew up in a Spanish town in San Juan Capistrano my whole life.  It was just unacceptable hot & heated moment & unfortunately being stuck in the house I didn't know who was erupting or coming after me in the house so I had apologized & didn't mean anything by it & unfortunately it didn't come out very good.

MF:  What about  the Julie Chen thing?  Was that totally misconstrued?

BRADEN:  Yeah.  We were all playing ‘Simon Says' & all drunk at the end of the night.    That had no maliciousness whatsoever.

MF:  Oh, I totally understand.  I have the feeds so I know.   How do you feel about Chima's speech?

BRADEN:  Chima is using everything that she could to get that vote swayed because she knew that it was going to be a tight race til the end. 

MF:    I know Jeff & Jordan gave you the heads up that you were possibly about to be backdoored, but were you totally blindsided by that or did you have a feeling even before that?

BRADEN:  Jeff & Jordan, oh that was the Lydia/ Kevin thing?  I'm very intuitive & when I observed the house being quiet around me & people going up to Jessie's room more & more, especially Lydia & Kevin.  I knew something was suspicious.  I knew Lydia was afraid of being on the block & she didn't want to go home.  Unfortunately I was there for her.  Tears all over my shirt & comforting her.  If I would have won the Veto I would have taken her off the block but she went out of her way to backstab me & made up lies about me unfortunately.

MF:  Do you have any idea why Russell would take her off & go after you?

BRADEN:  Well obviously I was a strong competitor, hanging on the HoH for as long as I did.  I think it was 52 minutes.  That's one thing.  & I'm a very smart competitor as well & had the chance to take out one of the big dogs & wasn't kissing their butt the whole time & that wasn't part of their "Athletic Clique".  So, yeah, they were definitely shooting for me all the wise Lydia & Kevin had made it a shoo-in I was gonna go up & I had that feeling.

MF:  The Athletes [- Jeff of course] seem to constantly threaten people not to put them up or else & everyone seems so scared of them.  Why didn't the house unite, I know they were safe this week, but the house didn't bond over trying to get them.

BRADEN:  It's funny you say that because we tried to do that at the very end.  We thought that we had 6 people that were gonna keep me in the house & gonna start taking out the jock side of things.  But Jeff wasn't included in the jocks.  They never included him.  So he stayed more in the middle & on our side, on my side.  People didn't have enough courage & unfortunately a lot of people were kind of shallow in that house that haven't grown up in terms of lifestyles I don't think.  & they kind of, you've heard of the theory "rat race".  All eat each other & it gets dull.  It's repetitive.  I like to play on the edge a bit more & change things up & keep things interesting.  That's how I stirred up the house so much.

MF:  Julie told you that Ronnie was the one that turned on you.  Did you have any idea how much he was going back & forth & just how much he's playing everybody?

BRADEN:  I read that guy from the beginning.  Unfortunately I didn't think that he had enough courage & balls to actually go through with that final vote & obviously it changed the whole house & is gonna jeopardize him in the near future. 

MF:  Do you have any regrets about your time in the house?

BRADEN:  Well you know, I wish I wouldn't I hadn't gotten derogatory & used such vulgar words.  You know, like I said, things do come out in the heat of the moment & unfortunately, that's what happened.  & I apologize for it but other than that I think I played the game great.  I stuck with my word & I was loyal & trustworthy & that's the way I'm gonna stick to it.

MF:  What do you think you could have done differently to have kept yourself in the house?

BRADEN:  I guess kiss Jessie's butt a little more.  But that's just not my theory. 

MF:  People in the house doubted all your stories & said you were a liar.  Are they fact or fiction?

BRADEN:  Everything's true.  & then some.  They won't sign any confidentiality agreement.  But I will say to you that there's a lot more to be told so if you wanna write a story about me or a book, I'll sign it.  Just send me the checks in the mail.

MF:  Who are you rooting for?

BRADEN:  Jeff & Casey.  Jeff winning & Casey runner-up. 

MF:  How do you feel about the Cliques twist?

BRADEN:  I loved it.  I loved the twist.  Unfortunately it happened throughout the whole first week but people were coming together & backing me up in the end really meant a lot to me.  Unfortunately it ended with this blowup with Ronnie now & in the house I'm sure it's chaos.

MF:  Did you have any idea how close Lydia & Jessie have gotten?

BRADEN:  No, obviously they're close because she sold me out so they're close.

MF:  What will you miss the most about the house?

BRADEN:  The good food.

MF:  What's next for you?  Where do you want to go in your life?

BRADEN:  Well I've been working on trying to get people to the right people.  So I am always the middle man, producing.  I'm making my own t-shirt & jewelry line that's coming out in the next month or two.  Other than that, travel & stay happy.  Stay healthy.  Get back to the world.  I've been very blessed.

MF:  So those are all the questions I have for you & if you have anything you want me to plug let me know & I will put it up on my site for ya.

BRADEN:  Thank you very much.  Do they have your information?

MF:  Yeah.

BRADEN:  Great.  Alright.

MF:  Thank you very much.
