Death, Taxes, and Bananas with Johnny Bananas - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I love Johnny and his insights. He’s greatly unfiltered which is awesome. But he gets stuck on making the same points for every season and brings it up every episode with every guest.

As much as people want to deny it, Bananas is The Challenge! This podcast is hilarious, no holds barred!

Bananas and Wes just gave me the Christmas present I didn’t know I needed! Literally laughing out loud. It’s amazing the chemistry they have after hating each other so many years!

Always entertaining. I love everything from the intro bit about the guest to the constant Wes jokes to the brutal honesty.

I keep trying to listen to this podcast because I appreciate Banana’s insight in the game (he is a true veteran) and the contestants he has on as guests are great. But my god he is so self-centered. Every interview turns into how someone or something in the game (either the current season or a past season) did something that ruined the game for Johnny, and only Johnny. He really can’t let it go when he gets eliminated. It then turns into a podcast all about him complaining about the same people over and over again. It makes the podcast so difficult to listen to. Focus on what happened in the episode and your guest - not on yourself. Since honestly the guests are great! Let them speak.

As a challenge diehard fan, I feel like I have to listen because I just want more challenge content. But its really tough sometimes. Johnny obviously is an entertaining person but he doesn’t allow his guests much airtime, and he can’t ask questions that aren’t focused on anything but himself. He’s already eliminated from the season he’s covering and still asking guests only about himself/how they targeted him/how they feel about him etc etc. There’s very little room left to talk about their backgrounds or Challenge experience, the episode itself, or literally anything else
