The Challenge Fandom Podcast

Get comfy Fandom, this will be a long one but oh so worth it! Your Challenge Fandom Podcast hosts Rick and Corrina sat down back in February of 2022 to talk all things life, love and The Challenge with none other than Tyler Duckworth himself. As huge fans of Tyler's, we were very excited to talk to him about every little thing we could and thankfully for us, Tyler wasn't opposed to giving us so much of himself. We dive deep into Tyler's life before reality TV, his process of getting on TV and run through all his Challenge seasons and best moments, per usual. But what really makes this interview stand out for us is all the other things we got to touch on with Tyler. Everything from being a gay man of stature on a high stakes reality competition show to what Harry Potter house he thinks each Challenger would be sorted into and everything else you can imagine in between. Tyler was not only beyond a joy of a guest, but was also informational, educational and real. We couldn't ask for more, thank you Tyler.  If you're not following Tyler on social media, do it. Trust us, you're definitely missing out!  Tyler Duckworth IG: https://www.instagram.com/themightyduckworth/ Tyler Duckworth Twitter: https://twitter.com/tylerduckmtv Tyler Duckworth Cameo: https://www.cameo.com/tylerduckworth Challenge Fandom Podcast IG: https://www.instagram.com/challengefandompodcast/ Challenge Fandom Podcast Twitter: https://twitter.com/Challenge_Fan_ Challenge Fandom Podcast FB Page: https://www.facebook.com/thechallengefandompodcast Challenge Fandom FB Fan Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/thechallengefandom Challenge Trash Talk FB Fan Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/challengetrashtalk CT - The Challenge FB Fan Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ctthechallenge TJ Lavin Fans FB Fan Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tjlavinfans

Buckle in Fandom, this one is gonna be a wild ride! Your hosts Rick and Corrina Hayes of The Challenge Fandom Podcast are back with another absolutely epic discussion with none other than the Queen herself, Marie Roda. Marie was originally on MTV's The Real World St Thomas and then appeared on five seasons of MTV's The Challenge which included Battle of the Seasons, Invasion of the Champions, Dirty 30, Vendettas, and Final Reckoning; all of which we dive deep into with Marie discussing the ins and outs of her reality TV life, behind the scene moments and even discuss some things that looked a little shady to fans in her final appearance. Marie tells us about her life pre-reality TV, other projects she did such as Ex on the Beach, she talks about her now post-reality TV life, and even touches on some serious social (and reality TV) issues all while being her hilarious and graceful self. Marie is truly a one-of-a-kind person and we are thrilled to have gotten the chance to get to know her and help bring forth some more of her true character so often masked by reality TV edits.  If you are not following Marie on Instagram, you are missing out my friend!

***Spoiler Warning for The Challenge CBS Cast*** While nothing is official until they are standing in front of the man TJ Lavin, the source from which we get our cast spoilers is very reliable and has not led us astray for many years in a row now. There are no gameplay spoilers in this episode, only cast, and discussion of what they may or may not have accomplished on their respective CBS shows. The Challenge Fandom Podcast hosts Rick, Corrina and Tony are back for another roundtable session where we lovingly miss Josh Chambers (don't worry he will be back soon), and then discuss all we know about The Challenge CBS cast. This cast is not CBS official yet but, again, the source in which we got the information is a very trusted and reliable spoiler source and has been for many years. We dive deep into each player that is rumored to be on the cast including any stats they may have and details about their previous gameplay on either Big Brother, Survivor, or Amazing Race We did not have a whole lot of information on stats or gameplay for the Love Island cast members (for obvious reasons) but we did connect some dots that might spell out future alliances down the road. We also compare this list to the names we gave off in our predictions episode! Come get excited for this new spin-off/addition of The Challenge by going through the rumored cast one by one and seeing why we think they absolutely killed the casting on this!

The Challenge Fandom Podcast hosts Rick, Corrina, and Josh are back with another wild session of Challengers Unplugged with none other than Brandon Nelson. Brandon sat down with us on Superbowl Sunday morning to talk about his background before reality TV was even a thought, getting cast for The Challenge, his experience on Fresh Meat, Cutthroat, Rivals and reflects on his time living with Leroy in Las Vegas. He goes in-depth on his multiple interactions with Camila, Ty, and the Laurel vs Big Easy incident. But more importantly, he dives deep into racism on reality TV, the effects of mental health on men, and what we can do moving forward to help change the stigma. Brandon was such an incredible guest and we loved having him on, evident by his and Rick's many off-topic conversations.

Buckle in fandom, let's go on this wild ride! Recorded February 26th, Rick, Corrina, and Tony talk about all the details for the new Challenge spin-off series War of the Worlds. We go into depth to all the information we had up to the recording point in time, discuss some burning questions we have seen throughout the fandom and make some predictions for who we think we will see on the upcoming CBS version that began filming in mid-March 2022. Our hosts discuss all the different ways we could see this affecting the flagship show (good and bad), and we even touch on what we would like to see happen with all these new spin-off series to help take us back to the original Real World vs Road Rules: The Challenge days while still keeping true to the growth Bunim-Murray Productions has overcome.  Let us know what you think and if there are any specific topics you'd like to hear us discuss on a roundtable, don't hesitate to shoot us a message on IG, FB or Twitter to let us know!

The Challenge Fandom Podcast hosts Rick and Corrina are joined for this week's session of Challengers Unplugged by the undefeated champion of Fresh Meat 2, Carley Mundt (formerly Johnson). We break down Carley's life leading up to her casting on Fresh Meat 2, including where she was born and raised (since MTV is determined to not give out the correct info on our Challengers), what her childhood was like and what she wanted to be when she grew up. Carley takes us through her entire casting process, arriving at Fresh Meat and what it was like running the combine and getting chosen last. We also dive deep into how Carley feels about Landon, her response to the fandom's reaction to her performance on Fresh Meat 2, what happened to her and Landon after the show and so much more. Carley even tells us exactly where she thinks MTV is missing the mark on their shows recently and we couldn't agree with her more!  If you're not following Carley, make sure you do!
