I finally got a prediction right... sort of! Plus: one last challenge means one last chance for a star, the RV makes a major comeback, TJ is putting together his Emmy reel, maybe the most fun looking checkpoint in challenge finals history followed by one of the more unpleasant ones in finals history, and a cliffhanger with two contenders lives in the game hanging in the balance… It’s the Challenge All Stars 4 Episode 11 recap, coming up right now!

They've officially begun filming All Stars 5 which means we've got the final* cast list and this Historian is here to break it all down.
The return of Ashley Millionaire Mitchell (praise the lord).
The return of Frank freaking Sweeney (I could cry).
And a healthy mix of vets and (double checks the list) borderline newbies to the franchise? There's some home runs and some head scratchers, and oh yeah, did we mention there are twice as many women as there are men!?!?
So many thoughts and so much to break down in this instant casting reactions pod, topics include:
