On the heels of a grueling finale on MTV’s The Challenge, it felt like time to put the Johnny Bananas bat signal up for a podcast. Always a fantastic guest, here are some takeaways from my half-hour with Bananas:

• The final challenge is harder than you think it is;
• Filming the show is more boring than you think it is;
• Robin is crazier than you think she is;
• He parties just as much as you think he does.

As if that weren’t enough, at the end of the pod he passed the mic to fellow Challenge legend CT. Enjoy.
