Challenge Mania

Derrick Kosinski & Scott Yager are joined by Total Madness Champ JENNY WEST!It's crazy that we haven't seen JENNY WEST on The Challenge since she won Total Madness back in 2020! Likewise, we haven't had her on the podcast since, but since she is BACK for Season 40 we figured we would dust off this classic episode for all of you to enjoy! Whether you heard it back then or never have, we encourage you guys to check out this awesome interview with Ms. West!PS: What is also interesting is you can hear the EARLY STAGES of the We Want OGs movement during the intro of this episode. A time capsule of when we were all stuck in our homes, doing our best to stay entertained and motivated! Which of course led eventually to The Challenge All Stars, which we are now 4-5 seasons into!This interview originally ran in July 2020.
