Ep. 365: Challenge USA II Cast Breakdown!

MTV Star Derrick Kosinski (@DerrickMTV) &amp; actor / comedian Scott Yager (@SHOTOFYAGER) dive head first into the MTV Challenge universe, interviewing past, present and future contestants, breaking down Challenge news and episodes, and laying down new challenges to anyone and everyone.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/2987894/advertisement

I haven’t listened to this podcast in over a year because I can’t stand either host. (Full disclosure: loved Derrick on The Challenge but being a podcast host just isn’t a strong suit of his). I was curious to hear Melissa’s story regarding her pregnancy and could not get through the interview. Scott is SO.FREAKING.ANNOYING!!! 
First of all, who CARES your wife had a baby last year? I can guarantee a percentage of your listeners did too, it doesn’t make you some anomaly. And then to act like he had some big part in it? Sit down. 

Also, you aren’t podcasting for the NFL. The Challenge is a reality show with very low viewership in comparison to other reality franchises. It’s just simply not that serious and Scott makes it seem as if he’s some big wig. It’s painful, the entire show is painful to listen to 😩

This podcast is just terrible

I love Challenge Mania. I get so excited every time a new episode is released. I’ve been watching the show since middle school &amp; I love hearing from the challengers
