Paula states she doesn't even feel like anyone could win the next Face-off except Evelyn, and fears that Johnny's key will be taken. Kenny also fears his key will be taken from him. Evelyn states that ever since the rules changed, she's become popular on the challenge again because Dunbar, Kenny, and many other alliance members are sucking up to her in an attempt to save their keys.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/challenged-a-podcast-about-the-challenge-on-cbs-mtv-and-paramount--3392015/support.

This episode starts off with Johnny, Kenny, and Dan having a "butt-contest" to see who has the nicest butt. Ryan and Jenn judge and crown Johnny the winner, only furthering his cockiness as KellyAnne observes. Ryan feels intimidated being the only gay guy on The Island. The alliance tells Ryan he will have a chance at a key at the next Face-off, but they want him to take it from Jenn, one of his closest friends.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/challenged-a-podcast-about-the-challenge-on-cbs-mtv-and-paramount--3392015/support.

The alliance decides that they will keep sending Johnny in until he gets a key again. KellyAnne and Cohutta talk about their romance ending after The Real World: Sydney, KellyAnne saying deep down both of them think it's best for them to just be close friends. Cohutta says as the competition progresses, the line of what side each person is on is becoming more blurred, and KellyAnne says it's because they are sending people home who are on their side.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/challenged-a-podcast-about-the-challenge-on-cbs-mtv-and-paramount--3392015/support.

Evelyn says the reason she and KellyAnne are picked on by Johnny are because they are the only people who stand up for themselves. Another drop-off arrives, and the islanders are disgruntled when they discover it contains no meat, but only vegetables and eggs. They also receive a scavenger hunt map which leads them to uncovering two wooden boxes from the beach, containing information on the boats and more supplies for them as well.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/challenged-a-podcast-about-the-challenge-on-cbs-mtv-and-paramount--3392015/support.

Paula, Evelyn, and Ashli contemplate putting themselves into the next Face-off, but Evelyn thinks Johnny's alliance will keep her from competing in one because they think she's a strong competitor. Meanwhile, Evelyn and KellyAnne have forged a strong friendship and have become "island outcasts" against Johnny's alliance.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/challenged-a-podcast-about-the-challenge-on-cbs-mtv-and-paramount--3392015/support.

Johnny explains that the main alliances are as follows: The four men that have keys, Derrick, Dunbar, Johnny, and Kenny, along with Paula and Johanna are in an alliance. The second he says are most of the rest of the girls, led by Rachel and Jenn. The third consists of KellyAnne, Cohutta, and Evelyn.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/challenged-a-podcast-about-the-challenge-on-cbs-mtv-and-paramount--3392015/support.

The teams are dwindling but that doesn't stop the betrayal amongst one team.

We're winding down this season and the inner-team rivalries are rearing their ugly heads. Lots of drama since no one feels safe. We see a Challenger we've been missing via a video call, so that was fun.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/challenged-a-podcast-about-the-challenge-on-cbs-mtv-and-paramount--3392015/support.

The US and UK sides are too busy fighting each other to worry about what the others are doing. The Challenge involves a mud pit and rugby balls as our favorite challenges usually do. We see teams turn against each other and other players get overly paranoid as elimination approaches.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/challenged-a-podcast-about-the-challenge-on-cbs-mtv-and-paramount--3392015/support.

Things get crazy as tensions rise in the Challenge House. The cast goes sliding all over the place in a challenge, some walls are busted in the Elimination, and security earns their pay check as multiple competitors almost come to blows.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/challenged-a-podcast-about-the-challenge-on-cbs-mtv-and-paramount--3392015/support.

Two teams, one is desperate to save the worst player on the opposite team. A throwback to the old school Challenges. The 2 alliances span both teams which makes things a little complicated for everyone. We're halfway through the season, but who will survive the double elimination?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/challenged-a-podcast-about-the-challenge-on-cbs-mtv-and-paramount--3392015/support.
