Welcome back once again to DC SocialPulse as we bring you the Action, Reaction and Interaction of the 8th edition of Double Shot Tuesday. The week (and this weekend's 'Pulse posts) started two days early with Jamie Chung from season 14 in San Diego become an Oscar winner as part of the Best 6 film. We saw a game-changing moment for two of the Exes 2 teams with excellent chances of cashing in at the end in Panama. But most importantly, the three words The Real World rung true as two life changing moments come to two of the Chicago roommates.
Last week on EP10 of Real World Skeletons, Bruno was the focus of a drama-filled episode as the arrival of his brother fueled more of the temper that has defined him this season. Plus, his brother Briah surprisingly becomes close to the brother of another roommate, Tony's brother Shane as they continue to be at odds. This week, family issues again take precedent, although a bit mellower than with Bruno as Madison deals with the unresolved issue of her drug-ridden past as her sister arrives. And for Jason, the ultimate life-changer occurs when he rushes back home to North Carolina to attend to the birth of his new baby girl.
EP7 of Exes 2 last week saw a double elimination as both Adam & Brittany and Johnny & Averey were sent packing. But the true shock came when rookies Jay & Jenna outlasted the field in a trivia contest to become surprise power couple, then saw them risk it all by voting in Nia & Leroy. This week sees politics and moving trucks collide as an adrenaline-pumping mission sees teams jump from fast moving semi-trucks, while the unfortunate fall of Zach that began last week continues. We also have the latest installment of Wes Goes to Washington, while another veteran team finally starts to click after some rough waters.
Then after all tweets during and surrounding the episodes on Tuesday and the days after, on DC ExtraTime, perspective on Jason and Madison, a life-changing moment comes to a Las Vegas local by way of one of the city's best-known natives, and an appreciation for a fan of the Trifecta who now has the must-listen weekly Challenge podcast.
- As we start, please note there is explicit language in many of the tweets below, but I am keeping it uncensored in order to retain the heat of the moment. So if you are mature enough, please read with discretion. :-)
- Plus, if you haven't watched the episode yet, then don't proceed. But don't worry, bookmark DCBLOG as I will compile all of these tweets into these posts after every episode so you won't be in the dark of how your favorites saw this all unfold.

So after the jump, it's babies, action and more in Real World/Challenge land.
