    The Traitors: New Blood Fantasy Draft | Who Has the BEST Team?!

    The castle is getting some NEW BLOOD, so naturally… we had to draft teams. 🏰 Will and Jhoany officially kick off their The Traitors: New Blood Fantasy Draft, choosing contestants based on bios, trailer vibes, strategy potential—and yes, attractiveness definitely influenced at least one team. 😂 We break down our first impressions of the new cast, debate whether a civilian season can live up to the celebrity chaos of The Traitors Season 4, and ask the most important question: Would you rather enter the game as a Faithful or get tapped to become a Traitor? Plus, we revisit Candace vs. Rob, Colton boldly confronting Lisa Rinna, the strategy behind choosing Traitors and how reality television can transform complete strangers into influencers overnight. And somehow, the conversation ends with us wondering whether NO MA’AM could eventually get invited onto reality TV ourselves. 👀 Listen now and let us know: Who drafted the better team—Will or Jhoany?

    Project Runway S22 Is Getting Messy! 👀 Law Roach Backlash, Designer Drama & Joseph McRae Takes Over

    The designers are officially settling into the competition—and so is the drama. 👀✂️ This week on NO MAAM, we're breaking down Episodes 2 and 3 of Project Runway Season 22, where the competition is heating up, alliances are starting to crack, and one designer is quickly separating themselves from the pack. We dive into the growing fan discourse surrounding the judging panel, including why some viewers are still adjusting to Law Roach and whether Nina García's absence is leaving a noticeable void. Is the criticism fair, or are fans simply resistant to change? We're also unpacking the biggest moments from the workroom, including the miscommunication and tension between several designers, the runway looks that had us gagged, and the critiques that left us scratching our heads. And of course, we answer the biggest question through three episodes: 👑 Who is the frontrunner of Season 22? Is Joseph McRae already running away with the competition after back-to-back challenge wins, or is it still anyone's game? ✂️ Episodes 2 & 3 recap👠 Law Roach vs. the fan backlash📰 Is Nina García being missed?💥 Designer drama and workroom miscommunication🏆 Early frontrunners and power rankings👗 Favorite and least favorite runway looks🔮 Predictions for the rest of the season💬 Who do you think is the designer to beat?
