Derrick Kosinski & Scott Yager are joined by Kenny Santucci.KENNY SANTUCCI makes his return to Challenge Mania, live and in studio for the first time. He talks about his life path since putting The Challenge behind him and what he learned from his controversial exit from the show and everything that came with it and still does. He also touches on the awful rumors and reputation that followed him based on things he flat out says did not happen. If you expect him to run from the subject, guess again. This is as candid as he has been on the matter, and as you will hear, he has turned it into motivation and fuel for his businesses, fitness, coaching and his quest to make New York the strongest city in the world. Buckle up, this is one that is sure to be polarizing for some and inspiring to others. If you want to skip it, we encourage you to do whatever is best for you. However we feel this is one many of you should hear or better yet...see. (Video of all of our episodes if exclusive to Maniac Level Patrons and above, as is Ad-Free Audio)FULL VIDEO AVAILABLE HERE: https://www.patreon.com/ChallengeMania/posts/video-kenny-to-163439698?pr=truewww.ChallengeManiacs.comwww.ChallengeMania.Livewww.ChallengeMania.Shop
