The Gaymers (Jack and Carson) rightly proclaim \u201cThe race is not the place to work out your control issues.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sadly this leg ends with the saddest of outcomes, because our beautiful, handsome, shining knights of Las Vegas, Cirque du so Gay (Mark and Brett) meet their bitter end in the pinot gris fields of France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n                          \n  \n                          <\/div>\n                      <div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n              <h3 class=\"pane-title\">\n                Episode 57: Gagging from Excitement in Napoli\n              <\/h3>\n                                  \n<div class=\"f--field f--description\">\n\n    \n  <p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none;\" title=\"Libsyn Player\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/36449890\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/000000\/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"90\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Release<em> Date: 5\/5\/25<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019ve reached leg 9 of The Amazing Race, and all of the teams are excited by the old world charm and \u201cverticality\u201d of Napoli, Italy\u2013and it\u2019s the first time TAR has visited this destination. Mark is \u201cgagged\u201d to be there, and we learn more about his and Brett\u2019s backstory as godpoppas and donors to their lesbian BFF neighbors in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jonathan and Ana have their best detour yet and work well together assembling a mandolin, while all the other teams fondle, plait and braid mozzarella. Carson himself eventually makes a \u201cson\u201d (i.e. a littler pizza compared to a \u201cmother\u201d pizza) at the \u201cWho wants to get saucy?\u201d road block.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What About Bob, Han and Holden, trail the entire episode after struggling with \u201crace brain\u201d and eldest Asian immigrant daughter expectations. They get to the pit stop last, but guess what? It\u2019s the first non-elimination leg in ages and everyone lives to race again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n                          \n  \n                          <\/div>\n                      <div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n              <h3 class=\"pane-title\">\n                Episode 56: Klek it Like It\u2019s Hot in Sofia, Bulgaria\n              <\/h3>\n                                  \n<div class=\"f--field f--description\">\n\n    \n  <p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none;\" title=\"Libsyn Player\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/36349490\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/000000\/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"90\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em>Release Date: 4\/29\/25<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Amazing Race continues in Sofia, Bulgaria, and we wonder: which TAR intern had to book the dungeon on Peer Space for the fire-walking Express Pass challenge? Nicole thinks this episode in the \u201cA\u201d-range for its gay score when all of our straight guy competitors take tremendous joy dancing in the water with circles of local men,, as the teams have to dive \u201cLike a Prayer\u201d-style to fetch an ornate cross out of the water.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What About Bob (Han and Holden) switch affiliations in the middle of a Davinci Code-style cipher challenge. Cirque du so Gay (Mark and Brett) continue to bring the charming Danny and Oswald vibes as they ease their way through the city with their charms and talents, while our Gaymers think there\u2019s no time for building \u201cgood karma\u201d at this late stage of the race. Erika and Melinda, arguably the most successful mother\/daughter team on the race thus far make a fatal error misreading their clue and wind up in our Elimination Station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n                          \n  \n                          <\/div>\n                      <div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n              <h3 class=\"pane-title\">\n                Episode 55: Who Wants to Fill \u2018er Up in Bulgaria?\n              <\/h3>\n                                  \n<div class=\"f--field f--description\">\n\n    \n  <p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none;\" title=\"Libsyn Player\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/36289100\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/000000\/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"90\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em>Release Date: 4\/21\/25<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The Amazing Race teams face their first self-drive in Bulgaria, as well as another double U-turn. Our Gaymers end up lost beyond all hope, it seems, after struggling with navigation lagging nearly three hours behind everyone else. This leaves teams What About Bob (Han and Holden) and the Basic Bros (Nick and Mike) vulnerable to the\u00a0 U-turn, which is exactly what Erika and Melinda do to the boys. Ana endures more of\u00a0 Jonathan\u2019s craptastic attitude, as he blames her for every little thing that goes wrong even though he gets them stuck in a ditch.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, our soccersexuals Alyssa and Josiah keep supporting each other to bigger gains each week. Cirque du So Gay, Mark and Brett, experience personal growth at the sheep milking challenge, while a needle in the haystack challenge gives our Gaymers a chance.

Plus, some info on the modifications made once TAR resumed production in fall 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n                          \n  \n                          <\/div>\n                      <div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n              <h3 class=\"pane-title\">\n                Episode 4\n              <\/h3>\n                                  \n<div class=\"f--field f--description\">\n\n    \n  <p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none;\" title=\"Embed Player\" src=\"https:\/\/play.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/18061463\/height\/128\/theme\/modern\/size\/standard\/thumbnail\/no\/custom-color\/2d2a29\/time-start\/00:00:00\/playlist-height\/200\/direction\/backward\" width=\"100%\" height=\"128\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 1em;\"><i>Release Date: 02\/26\/2021<\/i><\/p>\n<p>On the heels of our last episode which touched upon the lack of lesbian representation on <em>The Amazing Race<\/em>, Nicole and Karen take matters into their own hands to form a lesbian TAR fantasy league. We invite authors, scholars, and queer BFFs Poulomi Saha &amp; Greta LaFleur to talk about what would make them a great <em>Amazing Race<\/em> team. We hear about how Poulomi groomed an unwitting Greta to be a <em>TAR<\/em> teammate by posing challenges in their everyday lives. Which one of the two actually submitted a TAR audition tape in the early 2000s? And whose student competed in S32? Collectively we think out loud about why only lesbian couples and no lesbian buddy teams have ever been tapped to run the race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n                          \n  \n                          <\/div>\n                      <div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n              <h3 class=\"pane-title\">\n                Episode 3\n              <\/h3>\n                                  \n<div class=\"f--field f--description\">\n\n    \n  <p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none;\" title=\"Embed Player\" src=\"https:\/\/play.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/17919509\/height\/128\/theme\/modern\/size\/standard\/thumbnail\/no\/custom-color\/2d2a29\/time-start\/00:00:00\/playlist-height\/200\/direction\/backward\" width=\"100%\" height=\"128\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 1em;\"><i>Release Date: 02\/12\/2021<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Karen and Nicole spend some quality time with the first ever lesbian couple and team to compete on <em>The Amazing Race<\/em>, the \u201cmarried ministers,\u201d Kate and Pat. Though their run on the race lasted only a couple of legs, they also had some spirited drama on the web series <em>Elimination Station<\/em>. Which of the two earned a lifetime supply of Hooters?! You\u2019ll also find out which of them was fired from their job after appearing as an out lesbian on TV for \u201cpeddling the gay agenda,\u201d and learn about their spiritual and activist journeys both before and after the race. Together, we reflect on the lesbian story arcs available on reality TV, and in reality\/lesbian culture itself. Plus, we get into the pitfalls of some THOUGHTS on the Poker Players from season 15 and much much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n                          \n  \n                          <\/div>\n                      <div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n              <h3 class=\"pane-title\">\n                Episode 2\n              <\/h3>\n                                  \n<div class=\"f--field f--description\">\n\n    \n  <p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none;\" title=\"Embed Player\" src=\"https:\/\/play.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/17811413\/height\/128\/theme\/modern\/size\/standard\/thumbnail\/no\/custom-color\/2d2a29\/time-start\/00:00:00\/playlist-height\/200\/direction\/backward\" width=\"100%\" height=\"128\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 1em;\"><i>Release Date: 02\/05\/2021<\/i><\/p>\n<p>One of the most lovable and legendary LGBTQ competitors ever to have graced the <em>Amazing Race<\/em> mat, Oswald Mendez of \u201cTeam Cha Cha Cha\u201d (Oswald &amp; Danny, S2\/S11) join Karen and Nicole for a scintillating chat about all things gaymazing.
