118 min • 20 augusti 2023

Hey Fandom! Welcome back for another episode of Trash Talk Roundtable where your hosts Rick, Corrina and Tony break down the most recent episode(s) of The Challenge. This week we are doing a double recap for episodes 2 and 3 of The Challenge USA season 2 and we have a very special guest! Returning for his second time on our show, Talik Monroe from Mental Health Check-in podcast is with us and we're ready to discuss the good, the bad, the ugly and the funny of this week's double episode run of The Challenge USA 2. We kick off by skipping our normal BS intro and dive right into recapping episode 2 "Blurred Battle Lines. We discuss our feelings on these double episode, the defect twist for the winner of the elim, Amanda's insanely fake drama outbursts, and you even get to hear Corrina be so wrong yet so confident it makes you wonder if maybe she really is right. We also discuss what we imagine training would be like for Michele and Ameerah's elimination round, what we think about Jonna's game style switch up plus what her biggest mistake was, the development of the Secret Garden alliance and how we feel about the rookies running the vets out of this game. Last we breakdown the daily, Tori buttering up Amanda, what Rick is missing most from this season, Desi standing her ground against one of the most decorated and experienced veterans of the game, Tiffany dropping a burn vote to save her relationship with Jonna, full contact Plinko elimination and what we think would have happened if Tori had defected.... to Amanda's spot (0:00 - 1:03:06). For episode 3 we kick off with some better episode titles that we feel would have suited the episode better than "Civil War" plus we give our thoughts on some of the random allegiances that are occurring and we discuss how much our views of Paulie Calafiore have changed with this season. Then we break down the daily (per usual) and discuss where red messed up, why blue's strategy was the most effective, Michele cracking under pressure while Paulie leads the red team, Amanda riding the backs of people far superior to her (per usual) and why in the heck can't team Green figure out how to distribute their weight to properly capsize this boat?! Last we dive into Alyssa Lopez's incredible strategy to take control of Cory's vote, run the nominations for team Blue to ensure vets continue to get put in and completely decimating every fan out there with her comments to Tori Deal. Finally, we break down Johnny Banana's toddler temper tantrum, Amanda's big mistake, Paulie getting called into an elimination against Bananas that is eerily similar to the last elimination they did against each other plus what we thought of Paulie's exit, our predictions for whether or not Bananas will defect on the next episode and of course we give our "Line of the Night", "Best Confessional-ist" and "MVP"s. We hope you all enjoy this double recap as much as we enjoyed recording it. Big shout outs to our guest this week for sticking around to have some fun with us!
