Cutthroat Episode 8 Breakdown Podcast
Derrick Kosinski & Scott Yager break down episode 8 of The Challenge: Cutthroat.Derrick and Scott are back to talk about tonight's incredibly newsworthy episode of The Challenge: Cutthroat that left everyone with more questions than answers. We do our best to address the elephant in the room of 3 of the season's most featured stars being removed for "violating the code of conduct" at the top of the episode while doing our best to address the uncertainty and intrigue that is swarming the internet at the moment that goes along with it. We talk about the immediate and potentially longterm effects on the rest of this season and beyond and do so while attempting to be respectful to the parties involved, the show as a whole and of course...you all. As always, this episode breakdown is exclusive to Maniac-Level Patrons and above and this is just a Free Preview.WATCH THE WHOLE THING HERE: https://www.patreon.com/ChallengeMania/posts/video-cutthroat-169732247LISTEN TO THE WHOLE THING HERE: https://www.patreon.com/ChallengeMania/posts/audio-cutthroat-169732849www.ChallengeManiacs.comwww.ChallengeMania.Livewww.ChallengeMania.Shop
