It is a privilege to welcome online transformation coach and Reality TV star Jenny West to The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast. Jenny was first introduced to international audiences when she debuted on ITV's Survival of the Fittest's inaugural season. The show focused on young men and women who traveled to a South African savanna and competed in physical and mental challenges against each other. The show stood out because the contestants had to go on dates with their rival teammates, which were designed to test loyalties and group strength. Like Love Island UK, the winners won a cash prize at the end of the show, and along the way, the viewers decided who stayed and were sent home. In 2019, Jenny West debuted on MTV's long-running Reality TV series, The Challenge. Her debut season, The Challenge: War of the Worlds 2, saw her join Team UK, which contained a diverse group of rookies including Nicole Bass, Sean Lineker, and Tula "Big T" Fazakerley, established UK veterans Georgia Harrison, Joss Mooney, Kayleigh Morris, Kyle Christie, Rogan O'Connor, Stephen Bear, and Theo Campbell, and reinforcements CT Tamburello and Dee Nguyen. During her time on Team UK, Jenny was sent into elimination twice. While she won the "Trapped" elimination against fellow rookie Nicole Bass, show veteran Tori Deal defeated her in the Hall Brawl elimination. In 2020, Jenny returned to compete on The Challenge: Total Madness. She won four daily challenges and eliminated Jenn Lee and War of the Worlds 2 champion Dee Nguyen in the Flip the Switch and Hall Brawl eliminations. Eventually, she made her first final and won the season. Currently, Jenny West returned to The Challenge: Battle of the Eras to compete on the Era Four team alongside some of her generation's heavy hitters, including Theo, Kaycee Clark, Kyland Young, Horacio Gutiérrez, Nurys Mateo, and longtime Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar friend Paulie Calafiore. When she is not on Reality TV, Jenny is working on her online fitness program Future Proof Fitness (FPF). FPF helps women over 30 unleash s- hot transformations. Using the company's app, her clients can find ways to lose body fat, tone up, and crush their goals. On this special edition of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Jenny West spoke about her passion for fitness, crossing the finish line on The Challenge: Total Madness, and returning to the show to compete on The Challenge: Battle of the Eras.Let's connect on social media!

I am so happy that Jay Starrett returned to The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast. Reality TV fans first met Jay when he appeared on Survivor: Millennials vs. Gen X. His masterminding of Michaela Bradshaw's blind slide elimination, winning two individual immunity challenges, and bonding with eventual winner Adam Klein made him a fan favorite. While he placed sixth, Jay went to the MTV universe and appeared on Ex on the Beach: Season Two alongside his ex-Morgan Willett. Eventually, the former Survivor castaway made his way to the long-running Reality TV competition The Challenge. In his debut season of The Challenge: Total Madness, Jay Starrett made a splash when he won two elimination challenges, including taking out show icon Chris "C.T." Tamburello. Unfortunately, Jay's season was cut short when he was medically disqualified in an elimination against Rogan O'Connor. Jay returned in The Challenge: Double Agents, where he was partnered with show legend Teresa Jones. The pair won a mini-final and masterminded the elimination of champion Ashley Mitchell. That move put a target on their back, and eventually, Leroy Garrett sent him home. After taking a season off, Jay returned to The Challenge: Rides or Dies. He partnered with Survivor champion Michele Fitzgerald and together, the duo won two daily challenges and used their power to mastermind the elimination of show legend Laurel Stucky. Unfortunately, the pair were eliminated by the powerful rookie team Horacio and Olivia. Jay Starrett runs the Stay Loco brand outside of the reality TV world. Stay Loco represents "You being you." He encourages his followers to believe in themselves, motivate, and inspire people. He also has dove into the music world with several songs, including "Stone Cold," featuring The Challenge: Double Agents competitors Lio Rush and Joseph Allen. In this edition of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Jay Starrett talked about how he would have welcomed the new Survivor US newcomers (Michele, Michaela, and Island of the Idols champion Tommy Sheehan) into the fold if he was on The Challenge: Spies, Lies & Allies and spoke about partnering with Michele on The Challenge: Rides or Dies. Plus, Jay talked about expanding the Stay Loco brand and music ventures.
In this week's episode of the A Walk In My Stilettos podcast, I bring you another inspiring story of resilience. Bayleigh Dayton is an entertainer and influencer. She is a model, host and TV personality. She competed on “The Challenge” after first appearing on “Big Brother 20” where she finished 11th place. She also finished 12th on “Big Brother 22” but her best reality TV result undoubtedly came on “The Challenge: Total Madness” where she made it to the final. Bayleigh is the first and only Black Miss Missouri and was also Miss Congeniality at the Miss USA 2017. Tune in to hear how she is manifesting the life she desires and how you can too! We discussed:
It is a pleasure to welcome Jay Starrett to The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast! Jay Starrett became a household name when he made his debut on Survivor: Millennials vs. Gen X. Throughout the 36 days, he won 10 challenges, orchestrated Michaela Bradshaw’s blindside and built a powerful bond with the show’s eventual winner Adam Klein. However, he exited the game at sixth place once he mistakenly played a fake idol created by David Wright. In 2018, Jay made his MTV debut on Ex on the Beach 2, where he showed up as one of the exes of Big Brother: Over the Top winner Morgan Willett. While the duo tried to work on their differences, Jay and Morgan broke up. In 2020, Jay made history as being the first competitor from the Survivor USA franchise to compete on The Challenge. Jay Starrett’s debut on The Challenge: Total Madness saw him compete in three purgatory games, where he won two red skulls after defeating fellow rookie Asaf Goren and show icon Chris “CT” Tamburello. Sadly, he was eliminated from the season after he was medically disqualified from the “Fire Ball’ challenge due to showing signs of a concussion. Recently, Jay returned to The Challenge for the Double Agents season. He partnered with Teresa Jones, who made her return to the franchise after a five-year absence. The duo won the mini-final challenge: Smuggle Run and won $6,000. As Double Agents, they were also able to take out two-time champion Ashley Mitchell successfully. Unfortunately, that game move targeted the duo, and eventually, Jay was sent out of the season by retiring fan-favorite Leroy Garrett in the Fire Escape elimination game. In this edition of The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Jay Starrett spoke about his experiences on Survivor, Ex on the Beach, and The Challenge. He also shared the origin story of the Stay Loco lifestyle brand.
Dubbed "The Future of The Challenge" last week by Jack, Jay Starrett joins Jack to discuss his latest run on The Challenge (The Challenge: Double Agents), his rookie season (The Challenge: Total Madness), his time on Survivor (Survivor: Millennials vs. Gen X), how to prepare to for reality television, what's next for him, and so much more!
I was joined by the winner of The Challenge: Total Madness, Jenny West. We discussed why she is not on Double Agents, her thoughts on the Tori vs Aneesa elimination and her winning Total Madness and more.

I am so happy that my friend, Angelcake Entertainment’s Drew Angelman, returned to The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast. Since the last time Drew Angelman appeared on the podcast, he covered The Challenge: Total Madness. He also strengthened the Angelcake Entertainment channel by postings various videos that range from Mount Lavins (named after The Challenge’s longtime host T.J. Lavin) and several top ten videos. He is inching closer to 10,000 YouTube subscribers. In this edition of The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Drew Angelman and I unpack Big Brother 22. We also talked about the upcoming thirty-sixth season of The Challenge.

We're not going to sugarcoat it. Part One of The Challenge: Total Madness reunion show was underwhelming at best, extremely boring at worst. So, we spiced things up with a game of rotating host. Each of us took turns asking the others a very specific question, and the rest of us did our best to answer. We covered topics ranging from style, to Challenge fan fiction, and everything in between. Trevor also asked possibly the weirdest question in We Have The Numbers history, when he asked us swap places with one of the most popular castmates of the season (HINT: Melissa's unborn child). It was a wild ride you don't want to miss.
In Episode 221, Madden and Kolsky convene for a less tipsy but possibly more tired morning recording session to discuss: The first part of the Challenge: Total Madness reunion on MTV (1:20), the many twists and turns of a fascinating season and what — if anything — is left for … Continue reading →
