Challenge Mania

Scott Yager is joined by Entreprenuer and frequent collaborate Ian Wishgrad.

As we continue to roll out some of our Post Season Cutthroat interviews you here in the "Challenge Off-Season" we also have some additional studio banter for you. As Scott gets ready to head back up to Syracuse University this week to once again receive the CUSE50 Alma Mater Award on behalf of Challenge Mania, he thought it would be the perfect time to connect with Entrepreneur, Creative Director, Marketing Mastermind, frequent collaborator and longtime pal IAN WISHINGRAD for their first ever podcast together.

Ian is the Co-Founder and CMO of THREE WISHES CEREAL (a favorite of The Godfather Mark Long) as well as the Co-Founder of BIG EYED WISH Creative Agency. Scott and Ian met in 2001 at Westhill High School in Stamford, CT. They went on to attend Syracuse University together and have collaborated on everything from student films to national commercials and viral t-shirt campaigns. In this Reality-TV-Free (sorry guys) chat they talk about the Don'te Leave T-Shirt and how it changed Ian's life forever, Buddy Boeheim and the First Ever NIL Commercial they did together for Three Wishes, the state of College Enrollment, our new Chancellor Mike Haynie and the future of SU!

Whether you bleed Orange or not, this is an interesting chat about advertising, marketing, business and life paths that many of you should enjoy! It's also a peak into some of the areas of Scott's life and projects that you may not know about. Ian has been a large part of it!PS: Ian and Big Eyed Wish were also behind the We Way the Max and Recteq commercials you may have seen over the years as well.

Derrick Kosinski & Scott Yager are joined by Berna Canbeldek.

In this MANIA REWIND from 2021 the guys are joined by a rookie we haven't thought much about since. This is a snapshot into a not so distant time that somehow feels like 3 decades ago now. Reminder that any plugs and promos are outdated as this originally ran years ago. Below is the original write up.

Berna is one of the few rookies on Spies, Lies and Allies who has managed to navigate some tough political waters, win an elimination and still have a season ahead of her. She joins Derrick (@DerrickMTV) and Scott (@SHOTOFYAGER) to discuss joining The Challenge, what season she was SUPPOSED to be on, why she is responsible for giving us a Challenge Champion, why she has issues with ladies in the house, whether CT is the partner for her and MORE!

We put a lot of time, energy and love into making these events happen, and getting to share nights like this with the people who have supported us over the years means more than you know. The cast and crowd certainly played their part as well so thank you to everyone that was in the house Wednesday night. For context, we had just shown the crowd the episode as well and took the stage to discuss it and the season as a whole immediately after. It was recorded in NYC this Wednesday, October 28th.
