Nope not really. Evan/Paula do a aftershow thing. MTVs Show Blog wrote an article about it.

Long series of random thoughts.... I tend to check in on my phone which means I don't post so much.

1. Did anyone else catch D's last podcast? Kind of speculative but it sounded like Sarah gave something away. She was saying something about San Diego and was commenting on "the way they w- played the game" Anyone else think she was originally going to say "won"?

2. I guess I get why they have Danny on but c'mon. He's 0 and what? I think the only other vet on that level is Robin Hibbard. People have to stop telling Katie Doyle she's terrible because she's won way more than some other people out there.

3. Why did they call that random team Fresh Meat? 1 from Fresh Meat 1, 2 from Fresh Meat 2, and 1 from Spring Break Challenge. If they were going to pick 4 random people, why not pick some more interesting people? Also, where was Key West? Johnny, Paula, and Tyler have been on a lot of recent challenges. Could they not find another girl? And DC while we're at it? Emily and Ty have been on a couple/few now, and Panda's said he wanted to do one. Ashley (sp?) would have been hilarious, and that would have been an awesome team.

4. Does anyone know if they were allowed to leave the villa this year? I was in Turkey earlier this year and can't help but wonder what that would have been like. From what I remember about McKenzie drunk and Turkish men and their taste in women.... bad combination.

I hope we can some info on the food situation. I really wish Johnny Bananas was there if only so he could complain about Turkish breakfast. Usually on the challenge they get served the local food so I'd love to hear it. Traditional Turkish breakfast is 2-3 types of cheese, bread, olives, cucumbers, tomatoes. Sometimes you get hard-boiled eggs, nutella (there's a turkish brand that's served everywhere but hotels), jams, yogurt, and oddly french fries, but every day has the same basic staples that some of these people watching their figures might not like.

From what I've heard and read there was supposed to be a DC team but Ashley had to back out at the last minute. My guess for Key West would be that they probably couldn't get enough people to do it. A team with Johhny, Tyler, and Paula, plus another girl would have absolutely dominated against this group of teams, which could be another reason why they didn't cast a Key West team, but who knows.

Nothing on Vevmo has indicated that Ashley backed out.

There were numerous teams set up even a Road Rules team but Fresh Meat and the four chosen were the last resort. It's not that easy to fly out a group of people last minute because someone else messed up and delayed the challenge.

On Derricks podcast he said the Road Rules team was going to be Derrick, Darrell, Rachel Robinson, and Katie. With the exception of Katie that sounds like a power house team to me!
