It's the recap of MTV host Ali and Brian T. and the dog and a party to evil like this song that don't act me.

Hello, everyone. Welcome back to the challenge. All starts to have the podcast for episode eight. I am Brian Cohn with me as always is my close Alex here. I have you.

Right. I'm going to say what a lot of people are probably thinking when they listen to an episode of this podcast.

It's a good way to waste episode of the challenge would have been an incredible 15 minute episode.

Could this podcast be a meeting or it could be a meeting episode. Oh my God. The action packed five minutes that this episode could have been distilled down to.

I just love that every every week we learn more about the challenge medical crew and some it's just it's so fascinating there. There needs to be like a full investigation into how we determine how people get go home or not because the challenge medical crew is like truly one of the more.

It gets a friendly groups that we have in our society. That feels like something you shouldn't have said, but we will press on. I just let's jump into it. Let's jump into two of the interesting five minutes of this episode.

Veronica goes home for a broken toe back in the day. My gymnastics days. You just taped the big guy to the guy next to him and you keep going. I believe I was told many times. You can't really do anything for a broken toe.

Such that we we saw a preview of her falling down the stairs like we saw this check off trip. And I don't think either of us mentioned it because it seems so like innocuous and irrelevant.

No, I totally undiscussed totally undiscussed.

Do you think that the rigidity and the medical crew in recent days, in recent times, is due to it being all stars and then being older or that it not being a like, is that what's happening or are we just in a new era where we have more concern for the general health and wellness of our reality TV contestants.

I guess I feel like it has to be to different crew for all stars because it wasn't too long ago that Casey blew up her knee in a final and she was just allowed to continue like that. That was a season ago on challenge proper. So maybe they just have different medical crews on each of these shows and each of them make different determinations because for broken toe. It's like, yeah, just I don't know. That's like a pain thing. What more can you do to a toe broken.

But it's like, I see your example and I raise you big T big T was cut open, right?

Yes, it's open infection, something there's something there.

Yeah, I mean, and then it's like, well, Jay probably wants to have a word with Tommy probably wants to have a word, you know, like people who were allowed with it literally within an inch of their lives to continue competing.

Probably probably have something to say about this.

Yeah, Mikaru a couple episodes of the full on cast on our arm going way back when. Yeah.

I looked, I did look to the Twitter this week and I have some tweets for later, but I look Veronica hasn't said anything like we record this Wednesday night. So I don't know what the rules are or the guidance says for the players to be contestants to be tweeting basically spoilers about the episode streaming as a new age.

But I, I feel like there's more to the story, not not not like there's more to the story we missed part of her injury, but maybe Veronica's going to be like.

Yeah, like the doctor was said I could lose the toe and then I'd never be able to walk again because your big toe matters, you know, like I have no idea, but this seems bizarre.

Yeah, because you would think if there was like, why not show that why not make Veronica go out.

Even more as like a fallen soldier near the near the end of like right before the final, why not just be like.
