MTV Challenge Accepted

Brothers Zandrick and Dondrick Ellison dive into the third episode of the "Double Agents" season, entitled Enemy of the State. They discuss the daily challenge "Road Kill," which was high on pyrotechnics and high on injuries. They also talk about the soap opera behind the scenes that led to two best friends getting pitted against each other in the elimination. As always, the Ellison Brothers dish out "Stock Up and Stock Down" takes regarding the winners and losers of the episode, and look ahead to what may happen on the season to come.

On this week's show, Zandrick and Dondrick break down the second episode of the "Double Agents" season, another strong showing that earned high grades from the brothers. They discussed the twists and turns that led to a surprise golden skull ceremony, and all the antics that led there. With it, they debate the merits of the majority alliance, the merits of party politics in general, and the merits of a Lolo/Nam coupling. As always, the Brothers Ellison give out a "Stock Up, Stock Down" for the episode, although this one leaves them split on where to place Fessy.

The new season of THE CHALLENGE is finally here, and brothers Zandrick and Dondrick Ellison are ready to break down the season premiere. They discuss the new format -- "Double Agents" ; or at least, what they can understand of it so far. They talk about this week's daily elimination challenge, and the new twist involving partners (for now.) They also talk about the best rookies, the saltiest veterans, and speculate on how this season may play out. As always, the brothers give out their "Stock Up, Stock Down" picks of the week.

Brothers Zandrick Ellison and Dondrick Ellison return for a second run of MTV CHALLENGE ACCEPTED to discuss the show and preview the upcoming "Double Agents" season. While the two fanatically avoid spoilers, that doesn't stop them from looking at the show's cast and speculating about potential storylines and winners. They discuss their favorite setups, favorite past seasons, and make their predictions about whom the ultimate winner of this next season may be. If you love the show, you'll love this podcast (or at least, be mildly entertained by it.)

As long as The Challenge continues, Zandrick and Dondrick Ellison will continue on as well. This week, they recap the first part of the Reunion episode, recorded via zoom and hosted by Vernon Davis. Highlights and lowlights included a lot of relationship drama spread out between the Holy Trinity of Kailah, Jenna, and Nany, and a few mentions of gameplay and competition as well. The Ellison Brothers will debate who fared well on the reunion, and who maybe should stay home in the future. With relationships on the mind, the Brothers debate the greatest Challenge love stories of all time, led of course by C.T. and Diem.

Zandrick and Dondrick Ellison have reached the end of the road, as the challengers compete in the final of "Total Madness." How would it end? Would rookie Fessy complete his dominant rookie year? Would Johnny Bananas cement GOAT status with title # 7? Would anyone stop Jenny? The Ellison Brothers recap the epic (?) final run, gauge the players' performances in the final, and debate the long-term legacy of those involved. As always, the brothers consider whose stock went up, whose stock went down, not only for this episode but the season as a whole.

Zandrick and Dondrick Ellison break down the 15th episode of the "Total Madness" season, featuring a heartwarming sacrifice from Nelson aka "Uncle Nelly." While that storyline dominated the episode, the entire show had strong moments all around, from a cool daily challenge to two epic Hall Brawl eliminations. As always, the Ellison Brothers will discuss the winners and losers of the week in "Stock Up / Stock Down," and take a look ahead to the final next week. With all competitors seemingly on even ground, who will be the favorite to take home the crown?

Zandrick and Dondrick break down the 14th episode of the "Total Madness" season, which centered on the continued quest for red skills, and a few twists along the way. Who would win the inevitable Josh-Kyle showdown? Would Aneesa get thrown in before a final (yet again?) And more importantly, what would this episode mean for the future episodes of the show. With the red skulls out of the way, the real Madness may begin. As always, the Ellison Brothers will debate whose stock went up, whose stock went down, and what the cryptic meaning behind "Cake!" may be.

Zandrick and Dondrick Ellison break down the 13th episode of the "Total Madness" season, which featured an unexpected love triangle (or square) between Kaycee, Bayleigh, Nany, and an absent Swaggy C. The Big Brother drama boiled over and the tea spilled all throughout the Challenge house this week. Zan and Dondrick will help mop up and figure out the ramifications of the mess. As always, they'll discuss whose stock went up, whose stock went down, and what they may expect from the last few episodes of the season.

Zandrick and Dondrick Ellison dive into the 12th episode of the "Total Madness" season, an episode that focused on the male competitors who did have red skulls (and did NOT focus on Dee, quite clearly.) The desperation to qualify for the final and the disapproving looks from children motivated players like Cory to push harder than usual, but didn't appear to sink in for everyone. Zan and Dondrick will debate the merits of those moves (or lack of moves) and mention some winners and losers in the signature "Stock Up, Stock Down" segment. The brothers grade the episode, and look ahead to whether or not anyone can actually beat Fessy and Jenny in a final.
