BY DC CUEVA
Last week saw us kick off the thirty-eighth season of this show with plenty on the docket: a number of returning champions coming back into action among a field of a dozen or so pairs of friends, siblings, significant others and more starting their journey. There was also a love triangle that formed that included a rookie who's had her fair share of drama in love on her two MTV shows and the one who comes into this pressure cooker after a full warm-up season on All-Star Shore. And there was also some action on the field as well: an opener in the mud that saw Johnny & Ravyn beat everyone else, a surprise replacement coming in before the starting gun, and Devin proving his elimination mastery again.
When he & Tori came up victorious in sending back to Britain Kailah & Sam, at night's end there was one more Teej-bomb that TJ Lavin laid on everyone: a game with a history of many twists and turns -- and one that laid plenty of those even before the first elimination began delivered one more of those. And it's the surprise entrance of this show's winningest player ever & his partner from seven years ago on Exes 2 that has no doubt shook the entire house... and this week that is an alarm to everyone to not dwell on the arrival of Banany as they try to maneuver a balancing act above the water. The lone returning champion male in the field that stood at the starting line last week seems to be picking up where he left off when we last saw him three autumns ago, and it may put him into a place he's never been to before. And as one player opens up about the struggles she's had to put herself in the right frame of mind when it comes to her health, she may find that you really can't forget about the past even in this game.
After the break, DCBLOG brings you the 'Pulse of Week 2 of The Challenge: Ride or Dies, as this week the teams try to answer the question of whether they are siding with their friends or their foes... and we'll also get to the heart of the matter among one team who didn't even suit up to play at all. Welcome back Challenge Nation, and thanks for your spending part of your Sunday Funday Inside MTV Reality...
► AS THEY SAW IT: "Friend or Faux"

@happygolocky: Production are so weird. Wanted him on this season so much that they paired him with a girl he’s never met, only to edit him out of the show ๐ Poor guy. #TheChallenge38
@funtyREAL: I understand Turbo is a champ but he's real cocky about eliminations for someone who's never been in one. You wouldn't want your first one to be against a woman who's been in 11 eliminations and has won 9 of them. Don't play with Laurel, she's not one of them #TheChallenge38

@ItsTaviBaby24: I don’t understand why y’all always complain about crowd help in eliminations ๐คฆ๐พ♀️๐คฆ๐พ♀️ #TheChallenge38
- @EVLbyAssoc: @ItsTaviBaby24 We know they can help but it does take away from the actual elimination. I wanna see the two teams compete, not one team go against the entire house
@DerrickMTV: Uh ohhhh….here comes the UNDEFEATED help from the crowd.. #TheChallenge38
@TommyBracco: Best part of the episode is @jakkofheartss in that wig #thechallenge38
- @jakkofheartss: @TommyBracco kept me warm
@rainbr0jesus: i know the audience helping in eliminations has been done since the dawn of time but last season with ct basically doing the puzzle for emy... production should have nipped it in the bud #TheChallenge38
@Philltastic1: This is such a bullshit elimination. It’s so fucking unfair for Turbo! Love or hate the guy but Turbos pretty much competing against the people on the sidelines that are helping the other team. That’s kinda wack #thechallenge #thechallenge38
@rtvjennifer: if i had an ounce of turbo’s confidence i would be unstoppable #TheChallenge #TheChallenge38 #TheChallengeRideorDies
@TheChallenge: TJ friendly? Ugh, he’s just tooooooo kind ๐ #TheChallenge38
@KorynGab: As much as Turbo deserves to go home, atleast do it the fair way ๐คท๐ฝ♀️ #TheChallenge38 #TheChallengeRideorDies
@MikeyG_TBD: Damn I’m not a huge Tori fan or anything but that mental health segment with her got me emotional. We love growth. That struggle sucks. #TheChallenge38
- @JustJem24: @MikeyG_TBD I haven’t watched tonight’s episode yet but i did find her way more likable last episode than I have in seasons since dirty 30
@formerlyRedRose: Laurel, Devin, Nany and Bananas have been helping Horacio and Olivia. Olivia is very bad at this elimination. This is basically Horacio and Laurel vs Turbo and Tamera. #thechallenge38
@moriahjadea: I actually wanted turbo to stay in the house.(not instead of liv/horacio)It was really hard to connect with turbo and tamara bc they stood in their room all day.They trained, stretched, ate,& stood in the room..but…….. but turbo is entertaining and kept a target off of fes and i’s back.. my goal going in was to lay low, stay out of drama, and win.
@ravyn_rochelle: WE LOVE YOU NANY♥️ your mama & true challenge fans are so proud ๐
@moriahjadea: I also think Turbo shouldnt have called Fessy a sheep because Fessy did nothing to him. In the airport fessy said “oh this mother fucker is here” and Turbo took it the wrong way ๐
@TheMarkLong: Oh no! Not the guy I sent home on #TheChallengeAllStars3 ??? ๐ณ #TheChallengeRideOrDies Too soon??? ๐๐๐ Love you J! Give ‘em hell!
@UnOffChallPod: Congratulations to Horacio and @oliviakaiserxo on the elimination W!#TheChallenge38
@ChelseeaaMI: "..Again?๐" @MTVDevinWalker ๐ #THECHALLENGE38
@bumlako: The whole cast and production really did Turbo dirty. No worries he’ll get his Revenge soon! #thechallenge38
@moriahjadea: My biggest regret going on the challenge is in the beginning not wanting to be on the camera and being shy in my interviews. It was so hard for me to remember and express how I felt for interviews. I feel like I didn’t express how I felt so much
@moriahjadea: Also, that’s why I never say I’m the best at something because there are so many factors going into things that fans don’t realize. Takes a bad moment, mental state, feeling off, or a minor mistake to lose. Be humble and know you can lose at any moment
@HighMachGamestr: "I don't like the Banana. " - Turbo #TheChallengeRideorDie #TheChallenge38
@meeshfitz: I really don’t know what to think looking back on this episode ๐ค #thechallenge Who the heck am I supposed to trust?
@bumlako: Turbo literally just competed against the whole cast. Now that is not fair! #thechallenge #thechallenge38
@meeshfitz: Me: I have jay on a leash. Jay:
@MleighK19: Am I the only one who loves Turbo? I always really liked him and honestly, everyone is cocky. I love bananas too but try and tell me he isn’t cocky?! Turbo just gets a bad rep. Sad to see him go so soon #thechallenge38
@bumlako: Turbo and Tamara deserve another shot cos this elimination was definitely not fair both deserve to get revenge back #thechallenge38
@bumlako: I get everyone hates Turbo but the whole cast helping them ain’t fair literally cheating #thechallenge38
@shockbost: I hate when they help! Cause Turbo would have won any elimination if it was actually fair #thechallenge38
@Mary202110: Little help??? Girl be serious, you got lucky Turbo pissed the whole house ๐#TheChallenge38
@bumlako:s You are really celebrating a false victory? If the whole cast had been quiet and made it fair everyone knows these 2 was gone #thechallenge38
@MTVDevinWalker: Smell ya later turdbo
@johnnybananass: Be a GOAT… Lions are overrated ๐>๐ฆ #IamTheChallenge #TheChallenge38
@GhostPepper_UFC: Broo whack ass house eliminating @turabicamkiran. Without the house they would have lost. #whack regardless turbo will get revenge. #TheChallene #mtv

- @jakkofheartss: It certainly does ๐๐ป Thank you MTV for giving us this platform and for creating a cast that reflects the real world ๐
- @TommyBracco: Humbled and honored to be a part of this cast #TheChallenge38
► LAST CALL: Fans & Cast React, and Turbo's Last Word
@TheAllanAguirre: Nany Carmen Gonzalez. That's it. That's the tweet. #TheChallenge38
@TheAllanAguirre: Nany talking about her mom. ๐ฅฒ Always Team Nany, but I really want to see her get that win more than ever. She is ready for War. #TheChallenge38
@TheAllanAguirre: The last time Bananas & Devin were in a Challenge house together, they were at each others neck for an entire night. For a show built on Rivalries, the fact they resolved their issues off-camera is just so dissatisfying. Sorry. #TheChallenge38
- @SkipSwen: @TheAllanAguirre I think it’s mostly due to Devin already making a name for himself and being solidified as a vet of the show so he’s matured and stop just trying to make a huge show. On paper Bananas and Devin should be good friends
- @martydawwgg: @TheAllanAguirre That was years ago and devin is a smart man an knew it was just his depression that started it
- @_Hoove: @martydawwgg It was just a few months ago Bananas was trash talking Devin’s existence and contributions to the show on his off season ๐คฃ it all doesn’t make any sense from a viewers perspective either
@Irving_A07: Love seeing open discussions about mental health. It’s ok to ask for help ❤️ #TheChallenge #TheChallenge38
@TheAllanAguirre: Nam is very upset that his partner that he met the Day of Departure quit. Wow. #TheChallenge38
- @TJTheVillain: @TheAllanAguirre Caught up to Sarah in terms of worst luck at breakneck speed
- @jennacompano: @TJTheVillain but it isn't luck he chose to have someone he didn't even know as his partner so he needs to be held accountable for it lmao
- @Amanda52888619: @TheAllanAguirre I wish they showed her actually quitting , like when it happened and who she quit too and if she had a fit
- @NIKONATIONLIVE: @TheAllanAguirre He is becoming the next Leroy got everything u need to win but just bad luck
- @chezlos: @NIKONATIONLIVE Wow had not thought of that, but so-so true! One of the greats to never win!
- @ryan_tbd: @TheAllanAguirre its on him he refused to give a name
- @kpthiara: @ryan_tbd People are saying he mentioned Berna. But she didn’t want to go with him.
@britbrat878: Nam has to be the unluckiest challenger ever. Poor guy #TheChallenge38
@Irving_A07: My sweet Nam. He just needs to be in an individual season #TheChallenge #TheChallenge38
@TheAllanAguirre: TJ's reaction to watching Horacio compete was priceless. He was like "Holy shit, they finally cast someone good." #TheChallenge38
- @Alockera12: @TheAllanAguirre
- @chezlos: @Alockera12 I agreed but he will have to fight off all the vets if he keeps overperforming in dailies. I hope Horacio wins every daily challenge so that he never gets called to the zone.
- @JacobHollabaugh: @TheAllanAguirre Feel like that was what was behind some of his Tyson and Angela commentary on USA as well
- @JoMaMa85: @TheAllanAguirre Yup I think it was the first time he ever smiled big and even cheered so loud for a rookie.
@TheAllanAguirre: Yo, production won't get off Scuba Nelly's Neck ๐ #TheChallenge38
@TheAllanAguirre: Fessy might have DQed in this daily challenge. But you gotta remember he's a better athlete than 90% of NFL players. #TheChallenge38
- @BuzzKnutson: @TheAllanAguirre Poor guy couldn’t even get signed as an undrafted free agent when he was in his prime. He’ll be talking about those college sports days for the rest of his life though
- @rosesRred04: @TheAllanAguirre Are we supposed to call him Faysal now? That's how he's listed on the screen. No more Fessy
- @Air_Rick90: @TheAllanAguirre Let's hope this is a joke haha he's trying to play a low key game not as messy this time. Him and bananas in an alliance
- @JamieSeny: @TheAllanAguirre I can’t stand fessy. It’s his ego. He hasn’t won a final yet so…that’s a lie lol
- @johndotcom79: @TheAllanAguirre Definitely looking like an otter in the water! #thechallenge38
@TheAllanAguirre: Horacio very clearly tilted his board down so that Olivia could get the most space to land and climb up and yet so many teams refused to pick up on the tactic besides the legit Vets (Nany/Bananas, Devin/Tori, etc.) #TheChallenge38
@CFConfessionals: Nelson mistakenly calling Devin "Daddy Devin" when the name is reserved for Cory. #TheChallenge38
@Irving_A07: Faysal fails at the daily challenge The entire challenge fandom: #TheChallenge38 #TheChallenge #TheChallengeRideOrDies
@TheAllanAguirre: Nany & Bananas win the 2nd Daily Challenge of Rides or Dies 7 years after they won the 2nd Daily of Exes 2. Love it. #TheChallenge38
- @chezlos: @TheAllanAguirre Good historical fact. Maybe TJ can use it as one of the trivia questions. I wonder if they will have trivia this season for one of the daily challenges?
@TheAllanAguirre: Turbo used to call Nany "Mom" not because he loved her, but because he needed her to Baby him since that's what he was. The moment she talks to him like an adult, he throws a fit like a child. He is the worst. #TheChallenge38
- @JeaSole: @TheAllanAguirre Ok but nany continuously asking turbo if he wants to go in after she knew he didn’t was annoying asl. Turbo’s a mess but I get why he was upset
- @heather7785: @JeaSole He never said he didn't want to go in. That was literally the whole problem. She was asking him and he wouldn't say.
- @SableTinex: @TheAllanAguirre As if she’s not talking to him like he’s a bad child, she needs to move from him and let it go. She’s doing too much.
- @PolakSki18: @TheAllanAguirre He’s awesome TV we got robbed of him and Jordan in the house together
@Irving_A07: Listen, I love Nam but at this point I think we need to let him go #TheChallenge #TheChallenge38 #TheChallengeRideorDies
@TheAllanAguirre: Why did Jay show up to the interrogation ceremony looking like PaRappa The Rapper #TheChallenge38
@TheAllanAguirre: Michele in the Interrogation๐ #TheChallenge38
- @meeshfitz: @TheAllanAguirre Truly
@TheAllanAguirre: Tamara's Body Language speaks volumes. #TheChallenge38
@TheAllanAguirre: Olivia's reaction to Laurel making a move on Horacio was priceless ๐๐๐ #TheChallenge38
@MikeyG_TBD: Damn I’m not a huge Tori fan or anything but that mental health segment with her got me emotional. We love growth. That struggle sucks. #TheChallenge38
- @formerlyRedRose: @MikeyG_TBD Yes. Anti depressants is very real. I'm glad that she doesn't come on this platform
@MikeyG_TBD: This Nany segment got me in tears… We are so lucky to have seen this woman’s journey on our screens. I’m so grateful. Love you Nany #TheChallengeRideorDies
@TheAllanAguirre: Turbo said he wanted to face them all in the arena on that boat. Well guess what? He's facing everyone in the arena ๐๐๐ #TheChallenge38
- @Irving_A07: @TheAllanAguirre I AM SCREAMING ๐
- @lucas07096548: @TheAllanAguirre Lowkey unfair but fair at the same time because it’s been apart of eliminations for so long and it shows you gotta have a social game too
- @IvanOrnelas2: @lucas07096548 SIf anyone in the history of the challenge deserved this fate it is Turbo
- @martydawwgg: @TheAllanAguirre And when he knew he lost he said “it’s fair I take on all them at the same time” ๐๐ okay pal
- @Fashion_Nexus: @TheAllanAguirre And that's the only way he lost, no way just the 2 would have done it, they were panic and a hot mess even when they were getting help
- @jimwilliams448: @TheAllanAguirre The helping from the sidelines shit really needs to stop, it takes away who is truly better in the eliminations
- @debra_aquarius: @TheAllanAguirre He said one-by-one though. ๐ญ But this is why the social game is important. Shouldn't have pissed off the entire house in the very beginning.
- @JP422Brasil_USA: @TheAllanAguirre So true!! …. He is super aggressive this season……well…. now his season is over ๐
@Irving_A07: SI think it’s fair to say that Laurel eliminated Turbo this season ๐คท๐ป♂️ #TheChallenge #TheChallenge38 #TheChallengeRideOrDies
@TheAllanAguirre: I'm Dead. ๐ Turbo sprinting through Horacio celebration well after TJ blew the horn. Olivia looked worried. #TheChallenge38

@CFConfessionals: Production bringing back Kaycee & Kenny is like when you leave leftover food at someone's house that you didn't want and they bring it back to you. #TheChallenge38
@GhostPepper_UFC: Broo watching @TheChallenge and people saying @turabicamkiran isn’t legit and only intimidating is cap lol I train with turbo and he’s a fucking monster.
@ChallengeStats: ⚠️ This is the first time that Turbo plays an elimination after 2 seasons and 24 daily challenges #TheChallenge
@happygolocky: Great thread summing up how I feel about my favorite show these days… #TheChallenge38 reddit.com
@rainbr0jesus: honestly production dropped the ball with sliding turbo back on lmao this man told security he was gonna break jordan's bones while he slept and yall expect me to believe this mfer passed the psych eval #TheChallenge38
@ChallengeFanOG: Challengers who have a fear of heights or water or whatever else and then get after it despite that fear are always so bad asss to me. Well done, @oliviakaiserxo. #TheChallenge38 @TheChallenge
@TheAllanAguirre: They really should have made Britni Thornton Turbo's Ride or Die, because her twerking in the background of some of these scenes where Turbo is being unhinged would have been chaotic. #TheChallenge38
@TheAllanAguirre: Saw many people shocked to find out last night that Nany Gonzalez is part of Bills Mafia. The same girl who rips cigs, tosses cup of noodles, and got black out drunk before the final elimination of the season asking for Reeses Cups? That's 100% a Bills fan. #TheChallenge38
@RyanJohn___: When I watch The Challenge I want to see Da’Vonne say “fuck you bitch”, Katie screaming at Veronica, the lavender ladies and TYB vs Bananas and Cara, Kam stepping up to Melissa etc. We don’t get any of that anymore.
@CoreyLay: Emmy was the rudest person I've ever met in the Challenge world. She refused to engage with anyone or even leave her hotel room. Threatened to quit the moment she got there. The problem isn't Nam. It was her being a diva thinking she was better than everyone else. #TheChallenge38
- @jakkofheartss: @CoreyLay She got fined for breaking the rules, was bitter she wasn’t the center of attention and left.
@meeshfitz: Now that I’ve had 24 hours to hibernate from my cringe cry I just wanna say that I was frustrated, confused, hurt but most importantly PMSing this past episode ๐๐
@fessyfitness: Out of everyone I’ve played the challenge with I gotta say for me if we talking bout the male side the goat gotta be either CT or Jordan. Everyone else I’m not really worried about tbh
@ravyn_rochelle: I felt so bad for Nam when Emmy quit but to keep calling her out as a loser is beyond. Like chill bruh ๐
@PaulCalafiore_: I’m not gonna sit here and let the vacation gang use their weak ass mob tactics with @turabicamkiran . I know this man. Trust me, if he was feeling disrespected it was 100% because they were trying to make him feel a certain type of way. They poke and poke and then play victim.
@turabicamkiran: So sorry for acting like that towards the vets. ๐ข If I get a chance to come back i wont acting same, ๐i’ll make sure to be worse. And for sure i ll take this chance to f*ck them up 1 by 1. ๐๐ป♂️c u later. #TheChallenge38 It is always an honor to be part of @TheChallenge family.
@turabicamkiran: “I’m not normal man, I’m limited edition.” It was an honor to be part of @TheChallenge and @MTV family.Thank u very much @TheChallenge and @TheChallenge family to give me this experience again. I ❤️ @TheChallenge

MOMENTS OF THE NIGHT
How Hard is This Balancing Act?
and Turbo Takes a Chance
Our Moments of the Night: the daily and the Zone... and to think that Olivia & Horacio were this close to making it two straight rookie daily wins to start this out and then win in the Zone will start to make us think that they're now early frontrunners in the Rookie of the Year category.
ENDGAME
Nam & Emmy Speak Out
Above what we saw with Banany and Turbo, much of the buzz this week was focused on whatever happened to Nam & Emmy. And after what happened with their exit, he spoke out in Instagram and she went off also afterwards. We'll let them speak here...

To come your way ahead, our long-promised look at the newbies... but before that: we make a trek down to Florida and join one of Nurys' good friends she's made on the way to being a Challenge rookie, as "BG" & the rest of his Siesta Key cast prepare to leave their town behind and take their talents to Miami. We'll be on the move with the Florida cool kids to South Beach coming up when we return.
