We are one week away from the premiere of Challenge USA 2 which means we've got some previewing and some predicting to do! This brand new seasons sees MTV legends finally get to crossover to those sweet airwaves of CBS to bring some of the "Varsity" players into the "Junior Varsity" world (as someone like Bananas might say).

Join the Challenge Historian as he breaks down the cast, the trailer, the potential format, the possible love interests, who will align with who, who will make the final, and of course, who will win?!?

Don't forget to mark your calendars, as USA 2 airs BOTH Thursdays AND Sundays the first three weeks. You'll have episode recaps coming on this podcast feed the morning after every episode, all season long!
