Hi, I'm Erica Ramirez, founder of Ili and host of What About Your Friends, a brand new show on the Ringer Podcast Network, dedicated to the many lives of friendship and how it's portrayed in pop culture.

Every Wednesday on the Ringer dish feed I'll be talking

with my best friend Stephen Othello and your favorites from within the

Ringer and beyond about friendships on TV and movies pop culture and our real lives.

So join me every Wednesday on the

Ring or dish feed where we try to answer the question TLC asks back in the day,

what about your friends? Ladies and gentlemen welcome back to the death taxes and bananas

podcast where I will be breaking down yet another episode of the challenge

global champs. Now for those who've been living under a rock or are too

cheap and don't want to pay six dollars a month for Paramount Plus, I'm just going to recap a little, just going to recap a little bit.

Argentina has been struggling to win and to not be the entire first country eliminated from the show.

Australia is struggling just to provide any sort of entertainment value whatsoever,

which leaves the USA and the UK to carry the load.

And while traditionally nothing good

ever comes out of the UK, all right?

Weather sucks, food sucks, dentistry sucks.

I will say they do produce some quality reality television and challenge cast members unless of

course your name is Josh now Kyle was one of my favorites for a long time

but like his tiny little ass he's

since disappeared so filling the void on not just a challenge but in my heart is my next guest. You may know him from

Love Island, War of the Worlds 1 and 2 and you may also know him from

Rockus Champagne parties. And you may also know him from raucous champagne parties in Abiza Spain.
