Derrick was the reason I started to love the challenge. Derrick didn't disappoint. "If you can't beat a 3 legged dog. You don't deserve to be here" I was like that's my guy! Absolute beast. Pleasure to watch you compete. Joss figured it out.
Derrick is literally the best pound for pound competitor ever on the challenge. He might not have the most championships but no one wants to get in an elimination with Derrick, it will be the hardest fight you would ever have.
Remember all stars 3 when neihamiah literally destroyed him? Yah everyone forgetting that elimination pole wrestle when he said neihamiah was the easy one too when he bitched out of going against wes lol 😆 yah dudes got heart but come on im tired of the goat talk neihamiah isnt anyone nd he whooped derrick lol come on
Derrick is a force to be reckoned with. He brings so much heart to the show/game. The kind of player that makes you passionate for it. Please bring him back
@leytonwalker1190 I mean in wow she did ask tori if she wanted to go down into elimination with her so not sure about that. Also, moot point, I think her and Tori are okay now.
He likes one and has a longstanding beef with the other, plus everyone would rather play with Cara even if she is annoying than Laurel and Bananas who run through people in order to win.
No its you fans obsessing about Cara thats the problem. clogging up the comments everywhere. she is on the show & he is talking about the show every episode. Actual specific events in the episode. Like Laurel helping Cara. Im sure he gives no fcks about Cara or Laurel in his real life. He defends Laurel cause you loudmouth bully Cara fans dominate the social media side of things & Laurel doesnt get a fair hearing. He has said both are as bad as each other.
LOVE DERRICK FROM CHICAGO!! You’re the best. Season 41 needs to be the OGs Real World and Road Rules only. They know how to have fun and play with all heart. They don’t whine and complain when they lose like the newcomers do.
Looking at Derricks shirt, would some of y’all be open to filming a Jersey Shore Family Vacation style show? Where y’all only film when you have stuff going on and you have to take a trip together 2 weekends a year. Somebody needs to get on that cause I’d love to see more of the OGs.
bloodlines 2 would indeed be 🔥🔥 family members who would continue to come on though we ain’t seen nobody bloodline since rival 3 Derick playing with his sim would be epic !!
For real. It’s baffling how and why he brings it up without fail. And it’s the same argument defending Laurel’s bad behavior every single time. Stop. No one is buying it.
He’s ALWAYS hated her always. For us a a tv show for them it’s a competition. Bananas KNOWS cara will beat him in any final his ego will never let that go
The interview was great until Bananas brought up Cara AGAIN. Its getting old. We get it, you hate her and Cara "isnt a victim"😪. The Cara and Laurel fight has nothing to do with Derrick so why even bring it up 😴
1000% this. The way I rolled my eyes when Johnny brought up Laurel and Cara AGAIN. I've listened to the pod from the beginning but it's really starting to turn me off.
well there was no doubt he kept up with Horacio's speed & stamina. the doubt was a technical issue & what the rules were. made more confusing by the TV edit.
@ you think they planned on his ball getting stuck? Lol that stuff happens often but also they literally factored in the time it was stuck into who won
Forever a Derrick fan the man just has heart like no other. Side note would love to see Tina on though the woman is hilarious and I could listen to her for hours.
Love this podcast, and love Derrick! Heart of a champion! He is definitely the most scrappiest dude to ever play the game hands down. He can level any playing field he’s on and always delivers! Looking forward to seeing him again in the future. And for all of the hate on the Cara/Laurel comments, he continues to talk about it because it’s what people want to talk about even if they deny it. It’s called engagement. Those ppl could’ve commented on any other portion of this interview but they chose that part. Point the blame inward
The problem with the Derrick/Horracio elimination is that the key rules of the elimination were not told to us viewers and the editing clearly made it seem like Horracio won. Derrick was standing there with a peg missing (it fell out) at the end, Horracio's board had all pegs in, no questions there. Why didnt Mtv show TJ explaining that if you get a peg in and it falls out it still counts? That itself is a bit of a janky rule honestly, but hearing the EXACT rules beforehand wouldnt have even started 70% of the drama
Yah nd Horacio seeing his board not complete just changes his whole mentality too like thinking he is winning when he wasn't is just too me the worst part. Like you see the complete board from horacio and derricks wasn't. Was a mess Johnny is doing excatly what Jordan and Devin did though just taking the side of the guy he likes just like the laurel and Cara thing everyone knows laurel is the wrong one nd Johnny still takes her side. This is his whole character that's why Johnny sucks. I'm glad he isn't on this season 😂 Devin hogging all the screen time sorry.
Production knew the boards were fucked up & they probably didn’t want the boards to look unfinished for aesthetic purposes so they edited out them telling D&H all the rules, & refs helping put the pegs in the boards
Not of that matters when the footage of the rules being explained to both Derrick and Horacio was shown to them. Horacio shouldn't have went on a sore loser rant and his clout chasing girlfriend shouldn't have added her two cents when she wasn't present and enjoyed the episode from her couch like the rest of them.
They didn't show TJ explaining the rules cause that's not what happens with any elimination. The way it happens is, once the people going into elimination come down & do the shot for TV with TJ where he announced them going in, they go to a staging area. At the staging area production explains the elimination and all the rules. Theyre allowed to ask questions if they have them. After the rules are explained they do a quick interview & then they gear up. Then they go back to where TJ & the crowd are. TJ gives a small description of how the game works for the camera & crowd and then the elimination happens. The rules explanation takes at least 10 mins and sometimes much longer. There's no way they could have TJ repeat all that for TV. The crowd doesn't get all the rules either. The only time they really get told anything is in the rare cases where production says they can't help the people in the elimination.
I like Horacio, and there is no shame to lose to Derrick, one of the GOATS of the game. Now, if you lose a scrub, yes, question it. Hope Horacio gets to come back to the challenge.
Oh because according to him, we don’t see every thing except what is shown to us and poor Laurel is being portrayed as a monster and Cara the victim bla bla bla. Everyone’ gets it bro. You’re defending Laurel to the death as if you’re getting paid!
Johnny knows Cara and Laurel personally, you “know” them as much as the MTV producers want you to know them. I think I’ll take the word of the guy who’s lived in the same house with both of these women over some know-it-all nothing keyboard warrior being fooled by editing. 😂
I honestly think he wants Laurel loyalty on every show after lol that’s all. But I wish he wouldn’t interrupt when guests say their opinion that he may disagree with
Amusing how Johnny praises Laurel for working w/ Cara in the gladiator challenge but not for Cara working w/ Laurel in the balloon challenge. He clearly hates Cara & has a hard on for Laurel idk why
Love Derrick. Was my first favorite challenger when I started watching the Challenge back in 2006 with the Gauntlet 2. If you are up against him and are only at 99%, you've already lost.
The issue isn't really that Derrick didn't win, the issue is production should have set better rules and been more clear about the challenge. Also, we've never had a daily or elimination where you had to place x amount of y into slots, or hole, or whatever and it's okay if they fall out. That rule has never been a thing so it's weird that production suddenly allows it.
I love your podcast so much bananas, but one bit of constructive criticism is that I feel like you aren’t letting the other person disagree with you. You said how Laurel proved she had Cara’s back by helping her in this challenge. Derrick said he felt like Cara made the first step towards peace by not throwing the challenge when Laurel was a target, and this is after Laurel already threw her in an elimination. I felt like you kept cutting him off if you rewatch that part rather than hear him out. I also am not a Laurel hater at all but I agree with Derrick in this situation that Laurel has been the first to throw rocks by trying to get her out of this game and previously AS4.
Laurel is a sensitive bully. She needs to pick one course. Be a bully & don't care about the repercussions...or be sensitive & garner sympathy from the viewership for her personality shortcomings. She throws stones from the thinnest glass house.
Laurel “helping” Cara go against Tori was gameplay. She knows Tori is a threat also so it was in her best interest to gun for her too. Johnny & Laurel are made for each other 😂
1:20:49 yeah I mean the edit definitely made it seem like Derrick got all of Cory’s quicker, and this back and forth makes it seem like Derrick & Bananas are suggesting Derrick did it faster, it makes sense why Production (if it was a close time) made the decision to give it to Cory (which I believe is what happened)
@chanelle9554 Yes, I know... I was trying to say he doesn't have as many as Banana or CT. Trust me, I've been a Derrick fan since he beat Brad in Poll wrestling. Also, when he pulled that uge upset vs. big Erick.
Laurel is friends with Derek C., Laurel contributed to Era II trying to win, not just stepping up for Cara. You say Cara pokes the bear, but Laurel brings up things that should not be brought up anymore. Laurel's actions over the years negates the nice thing she did years & years ago. Does Cara need to improve her social game, yes, but Laurel needs to stop acting like she is the end all be all in the Challenge. Laurel treats people one way & has no qualms about sending people into eliminations, but when someone does the same to her, she gets super pissed and has the attitude of how dare they do that to her.
Love Bananas and his pettiness 10 seconds in this video and see his GOAT hat. Rachael said last episode Derrick is the goat even if he doesn't have the championships.
Why do you keep bringing up Laurel. No one is interested in hearing it. That's a weak argument Johnny. Get over it, Wes told you and now Derrick has told you.
Jordan had a lot to say on Derrick! I think Jordan wants a return Val’s with Derrick because he knows how good Derrick is and Derrick is a NO QUIT DUDE !!!
Loved this conversation. I was rooting for Era 1 over my Era that I entered the show (Era 4 - I stopped rooting for them when Paulie left and Jenny was being constantly targeted).
I was rooting so hard for Derrick. My favorite thing he said was to Cory when he said… “if you can’t beat a 3 legged dog, you don’t deserve to be here!” And then he went out there and made Cory look like a Bitch. Even though Cory won, in my eyes Derrick just won it all. He is a warrior and I hope to see him back.
Johnny defending Laurel episode #629. Enough already geez. You're not going to change anyone's mind. Why we back to her AGAIN. Derrick is the man!! Kudos... Corey lucked out you weren't 100%.
Remember all stars 3 when neihamiah cooked him for breakfast and he was the easier matchup cause he bitched out of rematching wes in a pole wrestle yah. Forgetting bout that ? He is over rated neihamiah ain't shit nd he killed derrick clean. 😂
Maybe I have a tin foil hat on… but it feels like production wants to phase out the older eras. Maybe not completely, but enough to get the audience used to not having the older eras. The hardly show Bananas… which is suspicious because he’s one of the most entertaining players.
They’re setting up the next all stars with introducing the young players into the mix. Don’t say “era 1 belongs on all stars” then take it away from them
They just have to do that from a business POV. The older players are going to age out of the show so they need to start making iconic players from the newer cast. The problem is the youngins just aren’t as entertaining as the vets.
I think them basing it off of time was kinda meh. If they knew time would play a factor maybe it would have been played differently. Unless that was stated and just not shown on tv. Derrick is still the goat and is badass af
Oh I wish Derrick would have beat Cory on this one. That would be legend status. But I'll keep telling myself that had D had both legs functioning 100% he would have won
He put up a hell of a Show . He is a true GOAT ! Love my #1 OG'S . I want more of them . The 4 are not enjoyable. Bring back the OG'S . Or a lot of fans will give up watching .😢
Johnny, while I agree with your stance now that Challengers shouldn’t call out elimination conspiracies, hopefully you’ll finally stop complaining about Laurel losing to Ninja.
Bananas trying to defend Laurel by bringing something up that happened over 15 years ago AND isnt even accurate (It was Wes that poured the soda on Cara) just proves he has nothing to show Laurel has continued to have Cara's back. At this point, just put Cara's name in your podcast title, cause you bring her up every episode. Just proves Cara is still the star.
Did the raw footage show how long Horacio's ball was stuck for? Cause you didn't mention that in this just that the pins were in the board, if there's faulty equipment it's not fair...Nice to see your trying so hard to be in the challenge good books...
I enjoy Banana's game perspective but why does he keep bringing up Cara and Laurel 🤡 this wasn't even a Cara centered ep. Last ep Cara (for the team) didn't throw Laurel's game, Laurel helped Cara for the team-nameley for Chavez who she still has a good standing relationship with. But stop negating Laurel's bad behavior. Ignore Cara for a sec, she's been shitty to Michele and Darrell. Like stop, she's just a big bully as Darrell said. It doesn’t negate her overall bad behavior because she did something helpful against another strong team.
@melissabailey4160 I loved Emily talking about Laurel on Bananas podcast where she stated Laurel is not capable of working with other women or maintaining relationships with them because she relates to men better and views women as a threat.
The OG’s (40 plus) The Real World/Road Rule casts is the heart beat of The Challenge! Many of these youngins come in to be The Next (CT, Johnny, Derek, Rachael, Aneesa, Tina, Darrell, etc.) And let’s be clear, though the OG’s as a unit kept losing, these youngin were barely beating the OG’s 20 years their senior. One on One Era 1 showed why they still run the excitement and ratings of this show. I’ll throw some of you Era 2 people in there that parallel the age and staple presence of Era 1 (some of y’all like Johnny are Era 1 adjacent.)
There have been calls like this made in Challenge history, Derrick did win... if Horacio's ball got stuck, then it's because of how he shot it. So that's just the way the cookie crumbles!
I 100% do not believe Johnny. I doubt he would have thought about helping Cara had she come to him earlier. Laurel wouldn’t have it and he is her lap dog. Love love love Derick!!!
The reality is production left out the worst of the fight with Laurel and Cara, then showed a montage of selective bs (Bananas giving the same vibes), and Bananas wants us all to believe the narrative has been overblown. And not the other way around.
The reason Cory was so mad is that Josh didn't even attempt to look like he had Cory's back. It was a 5-2 vote. Simple math tells you that Josh and Kaycee could have made it a 4-3 vote the other way (Olivia likely sides with Theo). This would force Theo and Jenny to take all the heat for the move. But since Josh and Kaycee apparently can't do simple arithmetic, they voted in Era 3. And not only is Cory furious with Josh, it seems like Tori doesn't trust Josh and Kaycee in this game anymore. Horrendous gameplay from both of them.
They subtracted the time the ball was stuck from Horacio’s overall time. It was stuck for like nine seconds, so they subtracted nine seconds from Horacio’s time and he still lost.
@tarantinoish That was my only problem with people trashing Horacio and calling him a sore loser. This was not explained on the show, and the show didn't even show his ball getting stuck. When Horacio comes out and says his ball got stuck it makes it seem like he would have won. Now with this podcast explanation, we now know that time was subtracted and he has no excuse for whining. I can understand why Bananas is so confused about why people are on Horacio's side because the public does not have all the information the Challenge cast has. When two sides are withholding information, it leads to controversy
Derrick was the reason I started to love the challenge. Derrick didn't disappoint. "If you can't beat a 3 legged dog. You don't deserve to be here" I was like that's my guy! Absolute beast. Pleasure to watch you compete. Joss figured it out.
I was having a shit day and watched the episode and Derrick just lit a fire in me when he said that. Such a gladiator worthy episode!
Derrick is literally the best pound for pound competitor ever on the challenge. He might not have the most championships but no one wants to get in an elimination with Derrick, it will be the hardest fight you would ever have.
Derrick has the most heart and fight of any challenger. He would be willing to die out there to win lol
Remember all stars 3 when neihamiah literally destroyed him? Yah everyone forgetting that elimination pole wrestle when he said neihamiah was the easy one too when he bitched out of going against wes lol 😆 yah dudes got heart but come on im tired of the goat talk neihamiah isnt anyone nd he whooped derrick lol come on
Happens to everyone @@dontread12
Johnny: talks and attacks Cara (again)
Derrick: tries to “defend” Cara
Johnny: doesn’t let him speak and talks over him …. Sigh
Derrick is a force to be reckoned with. He brings so much heart to the show/game. The kind of player that makes you passionate for it. Please bring him back
Literally every single person disagrees with Johnny about Cara and he’s still gonna push every week that Laurel isn’t a shit person.
Cara beggin Laurel for help vs Tori would also make me push for that 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@leytonwalker1190 I mean in wow she did ask tori if she wanted to go down into elimination with her so not sure about that. Also, moot point, I think her and Tori are okay now.
@leytonwalker1190 Cara was like this “😐😐😐😅” when Tori rammed Jenny 😂😂😂
I know! He asks his guests about Laurel and then doesn’t let them finish if they disagree.
He likes one and has a longstanding beef with the other, plus everyone would rather play with Cara even if she is annoying than Laurel and Bananas who run through people in order to win.
We love Derrick. Shows more heart then any other player. He is the goat!!!!
Derrick is an amazing competitor. Gives his all every time; strong mental game.
Not the Lauren advocacy again 😂
His obsession wit Cara is insane
No its you fans obsessing about Cara thats the problem. clogging up the comments everywhere. she is on the show & he is talking about the show every episode. Actual specific events in the episode. Like Laurel helping Cara. Im sure he gives no fcks about Cara or Laurel in his real life. He defends Laurel cause you loudmouth bully Cara fans dominate the social media side of things & Laurel doesnt get a fair hearing. He has said both are as bad as each other.
LOVE DERRICK FROM CHICAGO!! You’re the best. Season 41 needs to be the OGs Real World and Road Rules only. They know how to have fun and play with all heart. They don’t whine and complain when they lose like the newcomers do.
Bananas every episode trying to justify Laurel’s crap behavior.
Looking at Derricks shirt, would some of y’all be open to filming a Jersey Shore Family Vacation style show? Where y’all only film when you have stuff going on and you have to take a trip together 2 weekends a year. Somebody needs to get on that cause I’d love to see more of the OGs.
Hope we can see more Derrick in the future, definitely one of the Goats 🐐 great podcast
Would love to see a bloodlines 2 but any vets with kids 18 or over can compete Seeing Derrick play with his son would be better than bron and bronny
Hahahhahaha phenomenal comment
Was just thinking this the other day. Also add Paulie and Cody as a team, I’ve always wanted to see how Cody would do on the challenge.
bloodlines 2 would indeed be 🔥🔥 family members who would continue to come on though we ain’t seen nobody bloodline since rival 3
Derick playing with his sim would be epic !!
Love Derrick!! He is the GOAT... Great episode..
Lmao why does banana’s bring up Cara in every episode! 😂😂
Seriously. All day every day and every opportunity he gets!
I think he did so because it had to do with Laurel narrative, and he is doing anything that he can do defend Laurel and make her look good
Love how bananas joked about getting on grindr to find a wifey! Lmao! 😂 he has always been hilarious! 😂
I don't understand his deal with bashing Cara every episode of his podcast. What is with the hatred? Peace and love, Johnny.
For real. It’s baffling how and why he brings it up without fail. And it’s the same argument defending Laurel’s bad behavior every single time. Stop. No one is buying it.
Becuz fans have taken Cara’s side and he’s friends will Laurel and he’s hoping another cast mate will agree with him in defending Laurel
He’s ALWAYS hated her always. For us a a tv show for them it’s a competition. Bananas KNOWS cara will beat him in any final his ego will never let that go
The interview was great until Bananas brought up Cara AGAIN. Its getting old. We get it, you hate her and Cara "isnt a victim"😪. The Cara and Laurel fight has nothing to do with Derrick so why even bring it up 😴
It’s like he is her own PR rep trying to desperately undo the ugly image she herself created. No one is buying it!
1000% this. The way I rolled my eyes when Johnny brought up Laurel and Cara AGAIN.
I've listened to the pod from the beginning but it's really starting to turn me off.
With Horacio/Derrick - there will always be doubt…
But this doesn’t take away from Derrick’s passion for the game.
They showed them both the footage a few weeks ago. There is no doubt.
Lol they showed the footage of them telling Horacio that fallen pegs count and to just leave them. There’s no doubt Derrick won
@@trevorwignall7826yeah then there's still the fact that Horacio’s ball got stuck and they didn't stop and reset so that It would be fair….
well there was no doubt he kept up with Horacio's speed & stamina. the doubt was a technical issue & what the rules were. made more confusing by the TV edit.
@ you think they planned on his ball getting stuck? Lol that stuff happens often but also they literally factored in the time it was stuck into who won
Era 1 losing yet being everyone’s favorite team to watch goes to show u we care more about the entertaining part
everyones? thats an obnoxious claim. speak for yourself. viewers under 35 hardly even know those names
@scooter2501 yes they most certainly do if they are real fans of the show. Maybe you're the one who should speak for yourself
I haven’t watched the episode but still watching these 2 Legends talk about the best show on earth !!!!
I’ve never seen a podcast “host” interrupt a guest so much. Derrick couldn’t finish a topic if Johnny didn’t agree
I agree, it's so rude. I really wanted to hear what Derrick had to say.
You both are on the Mount Rushmore of Challengers
@leytonwalker1190 Top 10 (Big 3 (Jordan, Bananas, CT) -----------------> Landon, Wes, Darrell, Kenny, Derrick, Evan, Abram.)
Forever a Derrick fan the man just has heart like no other.
Side note would love to see Tina on though the woman is hilarious and I could listen to her for hours.
Love this podcast, and love Derrick! Heart of a champion! He is definitely the most scrappiest dude to ever play the game hands down. He can level any playing field he’s on and always delivers! Looking forward to seeing him again in the future.

Gotta bring back the what's pissing off Johnny segment
I like Horacio, and there is no shame to lose to Derrick, one of the GOATS of the game.
Now, if you lose a scrub, yes, question it.
Hope Horacio gets to come back to the challenge.
Love Derrick and Bananas! Great podcast! ❤
The entire world disagrees with your take on Laurel. Why defend such a trash human? Dont go down with a sinking ship bro.

Wish you would’ve gotten Darrell and Tina on the show ! Happy to see Derek
Tina 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽
He wouldn't have been able to defend Laurel for 20 minutes 2-on-1, so he chickened out of that idea 😂
Tina and Darrell 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love this podcast , I just felt like Bananas interrupted Derrick quite a bit . Love these two greats chatting about such an incredible show !
Always glazing Laurel 😂😂😂
Love the Ultimate Challenge radio and Whats eating Bananas/Johnny Poopoo pants throwbacks. As old school as it gets.
Great episode guys!❤❤❤
Cara lives rent free in johhnys head 😂
The issue isn't really that Derrick didn't win, the issue is production should have set better rules and been more clear about the challenge.

55:05 Cory never has a plan haha. It’s why he’s never won…and probably won’t ever
same thang Johnny said on Invasions 😭
1:05:35 laurel did throw the challenge The first time cara was a target dipshit lol. Maybe not the second time too, but it still happened💯
Laurel is a sensitive bully. She needs to pick one course. Be a bully & don't care about the repercussions...or be sensitive & garner sympathy from the viewership for her personality shortcomings. She throws stones from the thinnest glass house.

Yes, Derrick, I'm a bigger fan now. The championship rings/trophies are not there, but you're one the best. One of the GOATS.
He is a 3x champ?? What are you talking about?

Derrick is great, happy he did so well against Cory and I have no doubt that he beat Horacio and hate all the stupid rigging theories.

Are you in love with Cara because you just can’t stop talking about her.
Why do you keep bringing up Laurel. No one is interested in hearing it. That's a weak argument Johnny. Get over it, Wes told you and now Derrick has told you.
And it’s the SAME repetitive argument defending Laurel every time. As if the more he repeats it, it’ll somehow become true
Simple, because Cara has been throwing jabs in her Ig
@@juanmauricio888 Good :)
Jordan had a lot to say on Derrick! I think Jordan wants a return Val’s with Derrick because he knows how good Derrick is and Derrick is a NO QUIT DUDE !!!
I was sad to see him loose against Cory!!! 😭😞
Loved this conversation. I was rooting for Era 1 over my Era that I entered the show (Era 4 - I stopped rooting for them when Paulie left and Jenny was being constantly targeted).
I was rooting so hard for Derrick. My favorite thing he said was to Cory when he said… “if you can’t beat a 3 legged dog, you don’t deserve to be here!” And then he went out there and made Cory look like a Bitch. Even though Cory won, in my eyes Derrick just won it all. He is a warrior and I hope to see him back.
Johnny defending Laurel episode #629. Enough already geez. You're not going to change anyone's mind. Why we back to her AGAIN. Derrick is the man!! Kudos... Corey lucked out you weren't 100%.
1:06:05 youre literally describing someone with a god complex. "Let me tear you down on a daily basis but I'll save you so make myself look better."
Derek is the GOAT
Remember all stars 3 when neihamiah cooked him for breakfast and he was the easier matchup cause he bitched out of rematching wes in a pole wrestle yah. Forgetting bout that ? He is over rated neihamiah ain't shit nd he killed derrick clean. 😂
I have him 8th personally.
Johnny needs to chill with the Laurel stuff….lol. Just say you’re a simp
Derrick and Bananas are definite OG's.
Maybe I have a tin foil hat on… but it feels like production wants to phase out the older eras. Maybe not completely, but enough to get the audience used to not having the older eras. The hardly show Bananas… which is suspicious because he’s one of the most entertaining players.
They’re setting up the next all stars with introducing the young players into the mix. Don’t say “era 1 belongs on all stars” then take it away from them
They just have to do that from a business POV. The older players are going to age out of the show so they need to start making iconic players from the newer cast. The problem is the youngins just aren’t as entertaining as the vets.
Tin foil my arse…it is exactly what they are doing. The entertainment either get no screen time or they go home early. Frustrating.
Great podcast Johnny.
I think them basing it off of time was kinda meh. If they knew time would play a factor maybe it would have been played differently. Unless that was stated and just not shown on tv. Derrick is still the goat and is badass af
Oh I wish Derrick would have beat Cory on this one. That would be legend status. But I'll keep telling myself that had D had both legs functioning 100% he would have won
He put up a hell of a Show . He is a true GOAT ! Love my #1 OG'S . I want more of them . The 4 are not enjoyable. Bring back the OG'S . Or a lot of fans will give up watching .😢
Derrick is a bull dog i love it
johnny trying real hard this time to let the guest speak. we see you trying! good job lol
Johnny, while I agree with your stance now that Challengers shouldn’t call out elimination conspiracies, hopefully you’ll finally stop complaining about Laurel losing to Ninja.
Love this but what happened to Wes part 2???
If I remember he said a date when he'll post it. Idk
@@soheiladam7510you're right I think he said it would air after both parts of the house of Villians premier (and the second half of that is tonight)
Bananas trying to defend Laurel by bringing something up that happened over 15 years ago AND isnt even accurate (It was Wes that poured the soda on Cara) just proves he has nothing to show Laurel has continued to have Cara's back. At this point, just put Cara's name in your podcast title, cause you bring her up every episode. Just proves Cara is still the star.
Best episode yet
I wanna see cara on here
Be did one with Cara while they were filming it's been shown already
He*
@@DukeJimbob really where at I don't see it
@@andeshamo9585 it’s on Spotify no video though
Spotify no video though
Me turning the interview off as soon as the Cara bashing starts
No one was bashing Cara.
derrick the goat
Is there a way to find the old podcasts Derrick is talking about?
Did the raw footage show how long Horacio's ball was stuck for? Cause you didn't mention that in this just that the pins were in the board, if there's faulty equipment it's not fair...Nice to see your trying so hard to be in the challenge good books...
I’m glad he tells the real about Laurel.
Johnny you cut your guests off constantly
I loved the challenge since Battle of the sexes! Hopefully mtv will learn who the audience come for and it’s not era 4
I enjoy Banana's game perspective but why does he keep bringing up Cara and Laurel 🤡 this wasn't even a Cara centered ep. Last ep Cara (for the team) didn't throw Laurel's game, Laurel helped Cara for the team-nameley for Chavez who she still has a good standing relationship with. But stop negating Laurel's bad behavior. Ignore Cara for a sec, she's been shitty to Michele and Darrell. Like stop, she's just a big bully as Darrell said. It doesn’t negate her overall bad behavior because she did something helpful against another strong team.
And shitty to Emily!
@PaulDoe79 also true, Emily just ignored her since Laurel tried baiting her.
@melissabailey4160 I loved Emily talking about Laurel on Bananas podcast where she stated Laurel is not capable of working with other women or maintaining relationships with them because she relates to men better and views women as a threat.
The OG’s (40 plus) The Real World/Road Rule casts is the heart beat of The Challenge! Many of these youngins come in to be The Next (CT, Johnny, Derek, Rachael, Aneesa, Tina, Darrell, etc.) And let’s be clear, though the OG’s as a unit kept losing, these youngin were barely beating the OG’s 20 years their senior. One on One Era 1 showed why they still run the excitement and ratings of this show. I’ll throw some of you Era 2 people in there that parallel the age and staple presence of Era 1 (some of y’all like Johnny are Era 1 adjacent.)
There have been calls like this made in Challenge history, Derrick did win... if Horacio's ball got stuck, then it's because of how he shot it. So that's just the way the cookie crumbles!
I 100% do not believe Johnny. I doubt he would have thought about helping Cara had she come to him earlier. Laurel wouldn’t have it and he is her lap dog. Love love love Derick!!!
The reality is production left out the worst of the fight with Laurel and Cara, then showed a montage of selective bs (Bananas giving the same vibes), and Bananas wants us all to believe the narrative has been overblown. And not the other way around.
The reason Cory was so mad is that Josh didn't even attempt to look like he had Cory's back. It was a 5-2 vote. Simple math tells you that Josh and Kaycee could have made it a 4-3 vote the other way (Olivia likely sides with Theo). This would force Theo and Jenny to take all the heat for the move. But since Josh and Kaycee apparently can't do simple arithmetic, they voted in Era 3. And not only is Cory furious with Josh, it seems like Tori doesn't trust Josh and Kaycee in this game anymore. Horrendous gameplay from both of them.
Derrick would have been a great MMA fighter.
D is the goat
Wasn’t the issue more so horacio having a ball stuck where he had to stop but Derrick got to keep going?
They subtracted the time the ball was stuck from Horacio’s overall time. It was stuck for like nine seconds, so they subtracted nine seconds from Horacio’s time and he still lost.
@tarantinoish That was my only problem with people trashing Horacio and calling him a sore loser. This was not explained on the show, and the show didn't even show his ball getting stuck. When Horacio comes out and says his ball got stuck it makes it seem like he would have won. Now with this podcast explanation, we now know that time was subtracted and he has no excuse for whining.
I can understand why Bananas is so confused about why people are on Horacio's side because the public does not have all the information the Challenge cast has. When two sides are withholding information, it leads to controversy
