We sit down with the charming Christian de la Torre, famed for his appearance in "The Traitors" TV series on the Peacock Network. The conversation kicks off with light banter, where Christian's name amusingly reminds Pol’ of an Italian dish. 
 Christian dives deep into his unexpected entry into the world of entertainment, sharing that a mere Instagram message was his gateway. He candidly speaks of his disbelief upon realizing he was joining a celebrity contestant TV series, filmed in an enchanting castle in Scotland. He reveals his initial obliviousness to the star-studded lineup which included personalities from shows like "The Bachelor" and "Survivor", and even the likes of Olympian Ryan Lochte.
 Our guest doesn’t shy away from personal tales either. Christian reminisces about his deployment in Europe and the more challenging stint in Afghanistan, emphasizing his love for service and the global perspective it provided him. An intriguing comparison arises as he contrasts the very real dangers of Afghanistan with the mental challenges of playing the game on "The Traitors", with deception being key.
 Further in, the dynamic between Christian and other cast members is explored. He shares both the connections he made and the personalities he clashed with, giving an insider's look into the world of reality TV. His origin story isn’t left behind either, as he delves into his passion for rock climbing and his adventures around America in an RV – experiences he frequently documented on Instagram, which eventually caught the attention of casting directors.
 While the glitz and glam of LA might seem alluring, Christian discusses the stark differences between his home in Wisconsin and the relentless nature of Hollywood. The latter, he remarks, can be unkind, but he credits the genuine circle of friends Patrik and Pol’ have for their sustained success in such a demanding environment.
 It's Armenian coffee reading time and it takes a mystifying turn as he peers into Christian's cup, unraveling his future with startling precision that leaves Christian awe-struck and repeatedly affirming the revelations.
 We close with the announcement our television series, "Gown and Out InBeverly Hills" on Prime Video, won four Telly Awards. The episode concludes with heartfelt thanks to Christian, noting that he has been metaphorically "Undressed" Pol’ and Patrik.
