Hey Fandom! Welcome back for another Trash Talk Roundtable with your hosts Rick, Corrina, Josh and Tony. Start off by catching up with your hosts while we talk about some of our ticks while recording, our overall thoughts on the midseason episode and what we got right or wrong in our predictions last week (0:00 - 12:55). Next, we dive into MTV's The Challenge season 38 Ride or Dies episode 9 "Split Decision" and break down this episode from Olivia's seemingly awkward forgiveness of Nelson immediately following the elimination to the mini final we've all been dying for, Faysal's Messy Vessel of destruction, the final teams, and our message to the fandom on how we plan to handle the Tori & Jordan situation. Plus we talk about MVP's and why we only have one this week, plus the effects of having a friend who truly loves you through your mental health struggles (shout out to Dave), and update you all on our Ride or Dies fantasy season (12:55 - 1:28:00). Finally, Tony walks us through Survivor 43 episode 12 "Telenovela" which is the exact episode Rick and Corrina have been waiting for. We walk through the reward challenge, immunity challenge (and that incredibly difficult puzzle), all the different moving pieces, the no holds barred tribal council and finally the biggest blindside this season of Survivor has seen thus far. We also discuss our episode MVP, season MVP, winner predictions, paths we see for each player, who we think will have the most difficult path and update you all on our Survivor 43 fantasy season (1:28:00 - END). We had a lot of fun this episode and we hope you all enjoy it! Make sure you check out the links below and come back again next week to see what happens with these Challenge 38 teams as well as the Survivor 43 finale!
