Roland and Trey GOSSIP About Squid Game: The Challenge (FULL PODCAST) Players 418 and 301 

I'm going to make another podcast w/ Hallie! If you wanna help support it please donate here: ko-fi.com/rolandhannigan/goal?g=17

Trey is so nice about Ashley….but seriously she was bogus for not going when she was “supposed” to. When she finally jumped she then turned around and expected the people behind her to overtake…like what the hell. It was total hypocrisy.

I just can't understand why the people in Squid Game didn't get upset about Ashley's hypocrisy and end up painting Mai as an antagonist, I mean what the hell she had every right to get upset about it and throw Ashley out, too if she didn't jump herself. Ashley simply cheated out perhaps the most popular candidate in this show and no one of the cast cared,its so ridiculous...

Mai might be a bit backstabby but her nominating Ashley after glass bridge made SO MUCH sense to me. She was literally the only one that didn’t jump before someone and that was the only reason why Trey got eliminated💔 so I was very happy to see Ashley go. Trey is being a lot more mature than I would’ve 😭😂

Roland, you say Trey has Golden Retriever energy, but so do you! Just the fact that you didn't want to betray your friends for over $4 million on the line speaks volumes about your character. Whoever you end up with in life is going to be so lucky to have someone so genuine as you! You are seriously a fan favorite!

You really need to make more of this, this is so awesome. NGL, all my family was so freaking happy when Ashley was eliminated 😭😭😭

i love that roland didn’t get as much screen time but became the most memorable

You and Trey need a podcast together. Love how y’all bounce off of each other!

The extremely crazy thing about the Ashley thing is that she is now openly acknowledging she's the villain, meaning she knew what she was doing during that whole ordeal, but had to act innocent so that people wouldnt turn on her. I can guarentee you she def uses this shit on her friends too

Ashley tried to eliminate Mai but Phill eliminated Ashley it was funny that just made Phill like my second favorite character lol🤣🤣🤣

Ashley did you dirty 😒 so glad she didn’t win! She didn’t deserve to move on after glass bridge

I’m glad the contestants are actually talking about who the real villains of the Games were because the show make certain characters seem likable when they weren’t

The show was worse off for not having more of you Roland. Loved your energy and wish more was shown in the series

This was so good boys!! And yeah Trey you know i thought you lost your damned mind on that bridge lmao

Watching this is so great. I am LOLing so hard with Roland’s comments on trey’s hero moment. Didn’t know that was all Roland’s plan. Very impressed cuz i didn’t think ppl were gonna be as nice as they ended up being

Roland man, you and Chad needed to follow Mai’s lead on the dice game!

This is seriously my best listen podcast wise of the year. You guys killed this. I can’t believe I went basically 8 episode referring to you as “space buns” cuz you’d get no screen time but you are top 3 to watch on the show and I hope you have more projects to come from here!

It would have been awesome if you edited in the images of all the people you're mentioning. I honestly can't remember all those names but I'd recognize them if I saw them. Great conversation!

Oh Ashley did that intentionally. She specifically said she didn't want to do it

You were upset at Trey for making multiple jumps, but indifferent to Ashley for not overtaking him? And then Mai is the only one to hold her accountable for not going along with the "group plan" during the next game, but then she becomes the object of everyone's ire? Wtf. Also, Trey just said he would've played the dice game just as Mai did, but lets all continue to pile onto Mai for reasons apparently

man i listened to this nearly 2 hour podcast at 4:30am .. it's 6:25am now here at Germany, my sleep is somewhat ruined, but still it was more than worth it !! already hyped up for the next podcasts .. need more inside stories which weren't aired 😅

The best podcast covering the show so far. Learned a lot behind the scenes with these two

Ok, this is hands-down the single best piece of media out there to answer so many questions about the realities of the challenge (which are 1,000% in line with what I expected). I just applied to go on Season 2, and I would die (of happiness) if I got on and saw Roland there!! I already totally loved watching him, but now after watching this podcast, I’m seriously SO f*ing pissed he didn’t get more air time! This was such an entertaining and insightful video that I had to pause and go back to watch the different scenes of the show while listening along to savor up every nuance. The only thing I couldn’t find was the mummy scene, which I’m totally going to have to go back and find. THANK YOU for sharing so many details and answering questions! It confirms everything I was thinking that the show realistically was (in a good way). I used to live in Los Angeles and work in the industry, so I totally get that at the end of the day they need to make an entertaining show…and that is going to come first. While I don’t think that it was “rigged”, while watching the show I kept thinking how there was no denying that the producers had their favorites and totally played up the screen time and interviews to that end. I couldn’t believe how many crybabies and complainers there were about the “harsh” conditions. They totally seemed like exaggerated sore losers. Yes, we get it. The food sucked, it was cold, and it was a mindfuck. That is 1,000% what you signed up for, and I guarantee it’s WAY better than Survivor or any of those reality shows with a prize that is a fraction of this one! I’m seriously so psyched for Season 2. Maybe I’m delusional for thinking that I have a super solid chance of making it on. My delusions of grandeur end there. I don’t think it would be a huge challenge to get on the show if you know how to sell it on the application, but I do think it would really suck (and is extremely likely) to make it and get eliminated almost immediately. Thanks again for sharing so much! Totally looking forward to more Squid Game content! I especially can’t wait to hear about Glass Bridge (if you can ever talk about it without violating NDA)…because when I read that interview with the producers where they revealed so much about that, you CANNOT tell me that pausing the clock and brining in stunt people for the falls did not impact the reactions and drama at all!!

Damnnn. They still defending Ashley and attacking Mai. Howwww??? 👀

No one should have to last that long without chapstick💔💔💔

I really need someone to explain why everyone has an issue with what Mai did in the dice game, but no one is acknowledging the fact that she did that in retaliation to what Ashley did in Glass Bridge. Like, I am seriously confused. They acknowledge what Ashley did and are fine with it, but pissed at Mai for retaliating and then encourage Ashley to retaliate to Mai? What? I thought I'd get more context here but it's never explained here either.

Trey I want you to know I scream "NOOOOOOOOO" dramatically at the TV when you fell. Ashley did you dirty

SO entertaining to listen to. would be stoked to hear more between you two and the squid game family !

Awesome talk! It's so interesting to hear the difference between the producer's production of what happened versus your perspectives playing the game 👀

Bro it made me heated when trey lost cause she wanted to be an idiot. Than y’all questioned Mai’s character when she was the ONLY one that was held accountable. It seemed like y’all only disregarded it because you were afraid that if it fell apart you would be eliminated.

Hope we get more podcasts from you two! You both look awesome, love from Québec, Canada 🤍🤙🏻

i didn’t realize you had to stay still that long for red light green light??? 30 min is crazy

Honestly I feel like yall two could do a podcast on literally anything and it would be a hit lol

I enjoyed this so much!! I hope to watch more podcasts with you and Trey!!!!

More of you two! I love this!

I enjoy watching both of you in this conversation. great talk and show.

This was soooo entertaining! You guys are a riot! I loved all the dorm stories. :-D Congrats to both of you!

I always get attached to certain characters in tv shows and I’m always so sick when it’s over. This is amazing I love how they’re real people we got to know and love from the show and now we get to watch and grow with some of these “characters” in the real world. That’s amazing to me im happy I watched the reality squid games I hope there’s more to come from the og fan faves and the series itself. Keep it up guys much love

This was a really fun listen

Loved this. The idea of voting for yourself would have been fricking hilarious 😂 your grinning face up on the screen 👌

this was such a good podcast thank you so much😭😭

This is so great, I just love it

Awesome video you two. Would love more of these!

Please do more of these chats with other contestants. I love you two and think you guys are great people in and glad you two became good friends. Wishing you both more success to come.

I’m so ready to watch this 😂

So excited for this!

My man! I was so tensed up watching the show, definitely one of my favorite reality shows to watch! You guys did so great! I am hoping that I get casted for season 2 of it! (They better still have applications by February since I’ll be 21 by then!!) Idk but anywho!- GOOD JOB Y’ALL!

I love everything about this podcast!!!!!! The unstoppable back-to-back conversation is just immaculate, enjoyed it soooo much. Yall make a good pair for sureeee, lots of love to youuu beautiful souls❤️

This feels like part of the series 😂

These conditions were similar to Army basic training. A large group of people from many places come together for 10 weeks in close quarters. Fed limited types of food and beverages, no phones, no outside contact, training and performing team building exercises… then you become really close to these people, they become family. It is fulfilling, an experience you’ll never forget.

the goosebumps reference lol. really wish we would have seen this friendship on the show. great podcast. hope there's more to come!

Such positive energy keep going bro 💪🏽

Haha! I loved this and your roles in the show. Although I was on the edge of my seat when Trey and his mother decided to be right next to each other in the same boat on the battleship round. I was thinking that if they weren’t next to each other, if one got out, the other would still have a chance to win/get further. Because if one of them got out on the battleship, it was likely the other would get out as well meaning no chance at survival. But luckily, they both survived. Anyways great podcast love ya guys 😅

You have such a radiant energy that truly lights up this video and definitely lit up the show. Your smile is so inviting, you’re funny, and you demonstrated on the show that you have a huge heart. You should definitely feel like you walked away from the experience with a W. Even in your elimination you stole the show; grade A interrogation ☀️

love this!!! surely keep it going with more squid game cast??

Wow it's 27th of December by the time I'm watching this podcast. Happy Birthday to the both of you! 😂 Hahaha

I am so ready!!!! ❤

these 2 could potentially become best friends forever lololol

Wow, so cool guys. Do more of these.

the way roland said during the ‘pick 20 allegiance’ he wanted to support the cause but also make the fairest decision TO HIM; says alot abt his character and how much respect he has for his opponents. i wish that mai didn’t eliminate him but TBH that power move won her the show period.

The cute aggression is real with Roland 😂 I hope you guys do more podcasts (even unrelated to SG:TC) in the future! ^^

truly, i stan

Roland! I’ve competed at MOTIVE a few times doing ninja warrior so it was so sick to see u on the show! I was rooting for you the whole time 🤝

Trey is way too nice about the Ashley situation! I was so livid when watching that for you Trey 😂

I actually did not enjoy how buddy-buddy everyone became to the point they’re holding it against people actually trying to play and win $4million. Hoping Season 2 is a bit more aggressive/strategic

Roland you got a GREAT edit. You were very lovely. True that Trey got more screen-time, but at the end you really stood out.

19:23 it’s funny if you go back and watch the episodes of squid game with roland, anytime he’s on screen he’s either moving his legs when they stand or wriggling his feet when sitting on the bunk beds 😂😂

Happy birthday guys!🎉

Omg I'm just now listening to this and MY BIRTHDAY IS DEC 27TH TOO! I also had a coworker with that birthday as well. lol Happy belated Birthday, Trey and Roland!

I want this podcast to be a recurring series

Happy birthday guys 🎉

Dude the glass bridge was the highlight. TJ's motivational speech just ending on the first tile made me burst into tears laughing

I NEED to know more about the ghost priest 😭😭 I did not expect that

This was so entertaining and insightful! Thank you for making this content 😊. One thing I’ve been wondering is whether or not the glass bridge had a 2-person-per-tile maximum like the original show did. It feels like the first two people to make it to that last tile could just run the timer out and jump to safety at the last second since no one could pass them or have time to follow them. I didn’t play red light green light but I still think holding a position for a long time (especially in the cold) and going right to a sprint feels like a way to easily injure a muscle. People with something like Raynaud’s would probably also have a tough time. But 100% people can only speak for themselves

Happy Birthday, gentlemen!

Roland smiles like James Franco

How is Roland blaming Trey for what Ashley did? WTF is going on here? I wanted to hear more about what Trey thought about it. Why is he saying that Ashley didn't mean to do it? This is nuts. Did she hypnotize everyone?

I was drifting in and out of sleep listening to this and dreaming about being there 😂

You can see Trey realize he's about to fall right before the glass panel gives way Also TJ giving this big motivational speech only to immediately die was really funny, I probably wouldn't be able to keep myself from laughing if I was there

That dice self elimination was dumb a lot of ppl were there to be friends and not win obviously

Dude I've been clambering for content like this. This show dug deep in me man. I was hook on so many of you guys. You guys really just made me root for your little squad. You guys were like the good guys of the game.

This is great Roland! Thank you for doing a run down of your experience in the games! One thing I have to say is that not being mad at Ashely is one thing (and as her friend you can hold a nuisanced opinion which is fine), but pointing the “you were making the plan work less” finger at Trey at 1:18:30 and“now I know you just weren’t listening at all and didn’t know[the plan]” - is unwarranted. He knew the plan. He was covertly asking Ashley to adhere to the plan. Him taking extra risks was because he didn’t want to hold up the entire line as hostage. It was an honourable thing to have done despite it put your (honestly, very brilliant) plan in jeopardy. I think you could have changed your tone in this podcast a bit? Trey was silly for not directly calling Ashley out at the time, but your plan was at risk because of Ashley’s uncooperativeness, which forced an action out of Trey; not because of Trey.

Much love bro , loved the interview, hope I can get the chance of going on a show one day . Loved the interview I subscribed for sure💪🏽

I couldn’t go home to tell my parents that I voted myself off a game that I’ll 4.5 Million in 😅 they’d never invite me back over.

ive never listened to a whole podcast before this

The picnic was so obvious watching at home We were screaming at the tv telling him dont sit with your mum But just like the blonde in horrors he didnt listen 😂 I guess the food and sleep clouded your suspicions

I am loving this! You both are fun to listen to. One correction, I think if you picked Mai for the dice game, then Mai gets to pick who the die goes to next to pick someone else and then roll.

Still think Ashley was wrong for betraying Trey.

Pretty surprised that Trey didn’t mention Figgy once!

Same birthday! Coming up soon. Capricorns ftw

Came here to hear about glass bridge and hearing it from yalls perspectives is very interesting//

This is good yall

I’m with Tre on the Dice!!!

Choosing the cookie shapes was my favorite part of the show, not only is it an interesting exercise in game theory, but it's played out in fromt of everyone. Nobody that chose umbrella really did it 'right' in demonstrating to the other leaders that theyre choosing umbrella as a favor towards the other leaders, but as a ladt resort. I dont understand the hate towards the leader choosing umbrella though, obviously it's harder but there were plenty of people who screwed up the easier shapes as well and in the end the only opinions that matter are the ones who passed that challenge anyway.

That’s crazy I’m watching this on Dec 27th and I just filled out application to be on the next show season 2

Yeah, when it was Ashley's turn she didn't care because she didn't have to make a second move on her turn. Everyone else had the teamwork vibe

Nah I hate Ashley so much like I was literally so happy when she got elementary like I made a whole show about this anyone who supports Ashley is just way to nice like She is just selfish and stuff So yeah

I totally did not see it coming with the picnic, either 😅

25:47 i thought that the liquid in spencer’s tin sorta looked like bile? maybe from him throwing up? but i don’t know if he had thrown up at that point

Dude it was like episode seven when I was like "damn, Roland is funny as hell, I would defiantly be his homie"
