#141 Challengers Unplugged: Beyond The Edit with Desi Williams

Hey Challenge Fandom! Welcome back for another episode of Challengers Unplugged: Beyond The Edit! This week your Challenge Fandom Podcast hosts Rick, Corrina and Tony sat down with none other than the Challenge USA season 2 female champion Desi Williams! We were so excited to sit down with Desi once again but this time to talk all about her impeccable season on The Challenge USA2 and her redemption journey to being Champion! We talk about a variety of things such as whether or not Desi was ready to jump back into the Challenge after her tragic end on USA1, learning about veterans joining the game, behind the scenes stories on Chanelle's unaired social genius, Bananas' Saturday concerts, and did any of the cast even consider that they wouldn't be in teams the entirety of the season? We also break down all the poetic justice that happened effortlessly this season, Desi and Wes' falling out, how Desi truly felt about the mud wrestling daily, why the alliances changed so drastically from USA1 to USA2, how she felt being backstabbed by Tiffany and Michele, her alliance with Tori and Bananas and of course her opinion on Chris' messy gameplay all season (0:00 - 46:39), Next we break into why The Challenge is a better overall game than Survivor, how Desi feels about Danny McCray, and how she felt going into the final before they started. She also walks us through both days of the final including whether or not the boxes truly were heavy, whether or not she's ever thrown an axe before, was the shortcut and the regular trail clearly marked/separated, whether or not Michaela would have had a better shot had she just waited for a scale, how far ahead Desi was from Chanelle and why did Bananas love his Final Rock so much?! All this and more on this episode of Challengers Unplugged: Beyond The Edit with Desi Williams. We truly hope you all enjoy this final breakdown of USA2 with our female Champion.
