MTV Challenge Accepted Underdog Podcasts

After a second reunion episode, the "Double Agents" season of the Challenge has officially ended. With it, Zandrick and Dondrick Ellison are here to recap the entire run. Not only do they discuss the (slight) drama of the reunion episode, but they dish out season long awards. Who will win Rookie of the Year? Villain of the Year? MVP? Leroy, Kam, and CT all have great cases to make. It's such a close call that the Ellison Brothers go back and forth several times themselves. It's the last episode of the season for both the MTV show and the podcast!

The Double Agent season ended with a vet-rookie combination winning the $900,000, but there's still plenty to discuss in part one of the reunion episode. Or at least, SOME things to discuss. Dondrick and Zandrick talk about the lingering tension in the house, the now-cooling love triangle between Fessy, Tori, and Gabby, as well as the overall impact of CT's strong season and new look at the reunion. Rather than give out "Stock Ups, Stock Downs," The Ellison Brothers award some season awards, including Elimination of the Year and Comedian of the Year.

In part two of the final, a veteran/rookie team dominate from start to finish and WIN THE TITLE! Zan and Dondrick Ellison discuss the competition (or lack thereof) that led there, and how it may affect the legacies of those involved. Do we have a case for a new GOAT? Does Amber deserve Rookie of the Year? Do Kam or Leroy still merit some discussion for season MVP? And once again, we can't ignore the evil centaur Fessy who cemented his place as one of the most unlikable contestants in recent memory.

With the FINAL finally underway, there's a lot to discuss as four evenly-matched teams wage war. Zan and Dondrick Ellison break down the developments of the first day of the final, including a surprising surge from Amber B. and a surprising breakdown from Kaycee's knee. Of course, Fessy's emotional breakdown was LESS surprising, but deserves to be a topic as well. The brothers weigh all that and more, make predictions for the final (part 2), and award Stock Up and Stock Down from what we've seen so far.

On the last episode before the final, The Challenge steps up the level of athletic competition and the cast steps up the level of politicking. In the process, we got more of the Leroy-Kam love story, the Fessy-Kaycee friendship story, and a lot of one-liners from Kyle along the way. Zan and Dondrick discuss all that went down on the episode that proved to be one of the strongest of the season so far. As always, the brothers debate whose stock went up, whose stock went down, and look ahead to a competitive finals that should happen next week. With only 4 teams remaining, it could be one of the closest races in recent memory.

With the final around the corner, the competitors are kicking their strategy into overdrive, and Zandrick and Dondrick Ellison need to do the same to keep up with them. They discuss all the politics in the latest episode -- "Best of Enemies" -- the course of events, and how that may shake up the future of the season so far. As always, the brothers dish out "Stock Up and Stock Down," feeling more generous with the market than they did during last week's short episode. Enjoy the discussion, the strategy, and the brotherly love!
