Hey Fandom! Welcome back for another episode of Roundtable Recap with your Challenge Fandom Podcast hosts Rick, Corrina, Tony and Katie. This week we are doing our obligatory mid-season breakdown with one of your guys' favorite guest hosts, Alex Brizard from Netflix's The Circle and co-host of his own podcast Two Dudes Watch Cartoons. This was such a perfect episode to do a mid season breakdown on and we truly hope you all enjoy this episode! We skipped our normal 20 minutes of BSing intro, so feel free to push play and enjoy the show from start to finish! Remember, we are better on YouTube :)

On this episode we kick off by talking about our overall feelings on the format of the game, discuss the possibility of Challengers throwing dailies to get a shot at a star, what we think the biggest problem is with this show (hint: it's the same issue they have every season on every version of this show...), whether or not it makes a difference for trivia to be dangerous, Ryan's sobriety and Veronica's top tier social game play. Then we break down this trivia challenge including what we did and didn't like about it, discuss previous trivia challenges with dangerous jerk-offs, whether or not we prefer 3 strikes and you're out or one and done for trivia and what the heck were these questions?! Then we break down how casting has changed over the years and what we'd like to see moving forward, Adam taking control over his own game, and what is this unwritten nominations rule? We also debate whether Laurel will ever be given a chance to get a star without coming in 1st place and putting herself into the sand, shocking votes at the nomination ceremony, our thoughts on this elimination plus how they could have made it better, Ace's whole missed opportunity to protect his star, mid season winner picks, MVP's, Lines of the Nights and so much more! All this and more now available on The Challenge Fandom Podcast on this collaboration recap with Alex from Netflix's The Circle and Two Dudes Watch Cartoons.

Hey Fandom! Welcome back for another episode of Roundtable Recap with your Challenge Fandom Podcast hosts Rick, Corrina, Josh, Tony, Katie and Alexis! That's right we are all on this week and it's a special week... well, not really. But Corrina and Katie turned it into a special week complete with a couple glasses of wine and some fireworks mid-show! Make sure you don't miss it!

We kick off with a bunch of BS that has nearly no relation to what we're supposed to be talking about. If you don't like it, skip to 30:55. Then we break into the show discussing Cara's skills at planting seeds, Ryan playing both sides, Steve The Hand Job Model's Bulgarian Bag, whether or not 30 seconds was an advantage worth all that running, why Rick does not like the dailies this season, Cara realizing how much of a social threat Jasmine truly is in this game and of course, Kam's approach to trying to get voted in. Next we break down the nomination ceremony and I will give you all a heads up, it gets a bit heated but remember - if we can argue and disagree the way we do but still love each other and be friends afterwards, you guys can too :) To close out the episode we discuss what we think would have improved this elimination ceremony, why Nicole is one of the most unbearable Challenge players ever, who we had thought would win between Kefla and Steve, star swapping and of course TRIVIA next week baby! All this and more now on The Challenge Fandom Podcast!

Hey Fandom! Sorry for this extremely late one and thank you in advance to those who still take the time to listen through. We weren't sure if we were going to release this episode to start with so that delayed us a bit and once we decided to release it, it's just been a string of problems since the start. That being said, on this episode Rick, Corrina, Tony, Katie and Alexis get together to *kind of* talk about The Challenge All Stars 4 episode 5 titled "The Way You Make Me Steal". We had a tough time staying on track during this episode and ended up BSing for half the episode and then casually chatting about the episode for the other half. If you'd like to start and just hear what our thoughts were about what happened on episode 5 skip to around 33:00.

To kick off we discuss a variety of other topics such as Kendrick Lamar VS Aubrey Graham aka "Drake", Deadpool and Wolverine, how much times have changed since we were kids, millennial throwbacks and so much more I won't bore you with by putting it into writing. Once we start recapping The Challenge All Stars 4 we discuss everything that happened on the episode to some extent but we also discussed some very important things such as Leroy discussing men's post-partum depression, our debates on what's going on with Laurel and Nicole, why All Stars reigns supreme over the flagship and all the other spin offs, why we still don't blame Brandon for his decision on episode 4, why we hated this daily format so much, how we feel about Cara attempting to take a final away from Leroy again, whether or not it's okay to have sex in the same room that other people are sleeping in, why we think Cara made several bad decisions this week and why was Leroy's strategy so much more effective in elimination than Brandon's? All that and so much more now available on The Challenge Fandom Podcast.

Thank you very much to those of you who have been patient with us over the last season and start of this one while we get all these moving facets of our business locked down. We cannot tell you all what the support means to us and we are definitely getting back on track and we are just grateful for those who have stuck it out with us.

Don't forget to check out our merch line! We will be dropping new designs for the summer and we've got a sale coming up soon!
