CT Tamburello on The Challenge, Winning The Traitors & 22 Years of Reality TV

Legally Goff

Show Notes

Reality TV legend CT Tamburello joins Brooke Goff for a wide-ranging conversation about more than two decades on MTV’s The Challenge, winning The Traitors, and the life behind one of reality TV’s most recognizable competitors.

CT breaks down his strategy on The Traitors, his rivalry with Johnny Bananas, the psychological warfare of The Challenge, the brutal physical competitions and disgusting eating challenges he’s survived over the years. He also opens up about fatherhood, therapy, getting older, and why—after 22 years—he still hasn’t completely walked away from The Challenge.

Plus, CT and Brooke talk book clubs, reality TV behind the scenes, an Amazing Race partnership, and whether a Traitors All-Stars season could bring CT back to the castle. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
