ProTaggers Jesse “La Flair” and Carrie Bernans “Banshee” join Host Alikona Bradford along with the winners of Episode One, Lisa Barber and Charlie White as we discussed the craziness that ensued when a team of professional parkour and stunt athletes face off Olympic Medalists!!!! Lisa (Olympic Track Runner) shares her internal play by play during The Showdown, which involved a lot of curse words, and what it felt like to have the Banshee on her back. On the guys side, Jesse La Flair listed Charlie (USA Beach Handball Champion) as his #WhoILoveToHate for flying through the air OVER La Flair during Dodge Tag which now plays on repeat for the show’s promo!! While it might seem like a lot of trash talking or showing off on camera, at the end of the day Taggers and Players all displayed incredible showmanship and were quick to complement each other on their fierce competitive skills.
