For the first time ever I dive into the world of The Challenge. The Challenge: I continue my trek into the world of The Challenge for the first time with The Challenge USA episode 9.

As I dive into episode 9, it continues to live up to the expectations from all the years of hearing about how great it is. Below are my thoughts on the episode where I share my running thoughts as I watched the show. I will be doing this every week, and I hope you enjoy the show.

The Challenge: USA season 2 will kick off with a two-part premiere, beginning Thursday, Aug. 10, at 10 p.m. ET/PT and continuing Sunday, Aug. 13, at 9 p.m. ET/PT on CBS and streaming on Paramount+. New episodes will air twice a week, on Thursdays and Sundays, for the first three weeks, before moving to just Thursdays on Aug. 31.
