Ryan Lochte won 12 Olympic medals.
And then he won the first dual HOH competition in theCelebrity Big BrotherHouse.
And then he won the first HOH face-off challenge in theCelebrity Big Brotherhouse.
And then the winning stopped.
Did he come out of the gate too strong and make himself an obvious threat?
And whats with that sweet endless pool?
Here are some highlights for our chat.
What happened?RYAN LOCTHE:Oh my gosh, I dont even know!
I think are biggest thing was we started out too strong.
And it painted a big target on our backs.
Everyone in the house thought me and Jonathan were the biggest threat.
How muchBig Brotherdid you watch ahead of time to see how the game works?Not at all.
[Laughs] I did not.
I probably should have watched a bunch of the episodes to fill me in.
How do you feel about your fellow Olympian Lolo turning against you?
I wasnt really close friends with her.
It was more like I knew her just from being the Olympics in 2012.
We have a respect for each other, being Olympians.
But when she did that to me that little gesture of flipping us off I was in shock.
I was like, What the heck is going on?
Can we talk about your endless pool in the house?
Did you let anyone else get in the pool?Of course!
Im not going to hog it up.
Tom Green wanted to get in and swim.
I helped him with his stroke a little.
Who had the most swimming Olympic potential in the house other than you?Tom was pretty darn good.
You wouldnt believe it, but he knew his strokes and everything, so I was pretty impressed.
I was like, Alright, Tom!
Quick pop quiz here for you, Ryan: What is Lindsay Lohans mothers name?Dina.
[Laughs] It took me at least a couple of days.
Natalie is just a very good manipulator.
She just does her sweet talk and thats how shes been getting people.
Shes a little sneaky.
And Kato is a poker player and an athlete, so a jack of all trades.
So he can read people.
He can read all the B.S.
and everything, so I think hes one to watch out for.
Contestants were confused and viewers were confused by the whole Anthony Scaramucci thing.
Like, he played that part so well.
None of us had any idea and it was just amazing how he did that.
We did miss him, though.
He was a great guy to know.
When Mooch left, it got a little quiet, but we had Jonathan to keep the energy up.
Now that Im free Im going to have to get a hold of Mooch and tell him whats up.
But I do plan on hopefully getting more gold medals at the next Olympics.
I got a message from them already saying, Alright, now get your ass back in the pool.
So yeah, they are definitely waiting for me to get back home.
