Hey Fandom! Welcome back for another episode of Trash Talk Roundtable with your hosts Rick, Corrina, Tony and Cory! This week, The Challenge USA season 2 premiered so we are BACK on our normal grind recapping episodes. We kick off the episode catching up a little bit but mainly talking about our overarching thoughts on the premier episode and the format for the game (0:00 - 7:50). Then we break into the recap by discussing our thoughts on the intro including how we feel about having fellow fans compete on the show, Paulie's return (and intriguing outfit choices), foreshadowing of the episode, and what was going on with those voiceovers in the preview for the season?! We also discuss our thoughts on the Hopper, how the team captains were chosen, draft order and what we think the real reason that Josh didn't draft Bananas was. Next we break down the daily including Ameerah not helping her team carry the statue, the cart crash where we almost got a squished Banana and even team Blue almost dropping their statue on TJ's head (7:50 - 47:50). Lastly we deep dive into the nomination process, the Blue and Red team alliance, Jonna changing up her game style from All Stars and who we really blame for the same thing happening over and over again every season. We wrap it up by discussing what we loved most about this episode, where we think they went wrong with the cliffhanger, what our "Line of the Night" was and we even created a new award called "Best Confessional-ist Giver" and of course we award that as well amongst a bunch of other predictions for how they might add a twist later on in the game! Overall we enjoyed this premier episode and we enjoyed being back in action recapping together and we hope you all enjoy it too. Make sure you go check out the teams we drafted on IG and let us know who's team you like most!
