Have A Good Night Everyone (Featuring Jake)
Thank you all, it's been an incredible 5 years but the time has come.
Please update your Patreon subscriptions if you are one because we don't plan on publishing anything on there going forward. Once we are past the billing cycle, I will probably make this whole archive free to access but I can't currently change any pricing. I may also upload all the Patreon exclusive podcasts on the main feed at some point if I can't do it this way. -

The Challenge Season 38 competitors are "lucky" to have a built-in support system in the game. And that is because they get to compete alongside their ride or dies.
The Challenge: Ride or Dies will feature 17 pairs -- and the seemingly unbreakable bonds between friends, family and partners will be tested. From former teammates (Bananas and Nany as well as Darrell and Veronica) to a bunch of new faces from different reality series, these duos will compete for their share of the $1 million prize.
The Challenge: Ride or Dies premieres on Wednesday, October 12 at 8/7c! -
Scumbag (Ride Or Dies Ep. 16)
Now that we know how the final has played out (3 episodes for some reason) we are back on track and will be dropping a MEGAPOD this weekend to cover the entire final.

Customer Reviews
Can you lay off of Hannah?
I really enjoy this podcast. It’s one of the better Challenge ones. Jake is hilarious and kind of oblivious, while Zach’s good at recapping and keeping the pod running smoothly. They balance each other out nicely. The one thing I don’t like is it often feels like Zach is being really dismissive of Hannah. He often shuts her down immediately when she offers an opinion or even a joke. More interaction with Hannah, rather than making it feel like she’s “the third wheel” would have earned 5 stars for me.
Amazing Challenge Podcast
This is definitely my favourite Challenge podcast out there. The 3 hosts are all unique in their own way, and have amazing banter. It is a joy to listen to. They all clearly love the show. I definitely recommend this podcast to anyone who loves The Challenge too!
Dysfunctionally Charming
This podcast is the verbal equivalent of wrangling cats. Listening to zac try to keep jake and Hanna on topic is as heartbreaking as it is heartwarming. Zac talks about mtv’s the challenge and the other two talk about whatever comes to their minds and sometimes the words their saying are related to the focus of the podcast. There podcast often morphs into something like this.
Zac “Allright so bananas is in the elimination this week...”
jake “do you think Leroy likes crunchy or smooth peanut butter?”
Zac ”what? I mean I don’t know but anyway the elimination is called”
Hanna “I don’t really like breakfast food”
Zac “terrific so like I was saying bananas is up for elimination and he is up against Theo...”
jake “hey Zac what’s the name of that movie with the talking dogs in it”
Hanna “you mean charlottes web”
Zac “charlottes web was about a pig. But back on the challenege”
Hanna “there was a talking dog in that one two wasn’t there I’m going to look it up”
Zac “okay so like I was saying this is a big elimination and”
jake “it was Shawshank redemption I don’t know why I said the part about the talking dog”
Zac: *sigh*
Jake “I think he is probably a smooth peanut butter guy because he’s so smooth with the ladies”
This is the kind of edge of your seat commentary that keeps me coming back week after week! Love you guys and Zac if you ever want to start a podcast where you just talk about the challenge hit me up;) love you guys!
