Or someone answering in Welsh or something and having to stop recording to go find someone fluent and impartial.

I disagree, should there be a caveat for every clue that they want it in English? I think the default is English -unless they are specifically told that the answers are in another language-. There have been contestants for whom English is a second language, should they be allowed to answer in Spanish, French, Mandarin? I think Ken was just gently pointing out that they wanted the animal that the word Arctic came from not just another word in another language for the animal. I'm probably not saying this well, but it's clear in my head!🤔 I also disagree with this: If Geraldine had said Plague (of course!) instead of Fire (???) she would be a champion. But I'm sure she doesn't need me to rub it in. She was in 3rd when she got to that DD and even if she had doubled it to $8400 she would only have been $1600 ahead of the guys with most of the board still to come. At that point any one of them -could- have been champion. I'm not sure what goes into figuring out the Coryat scores but hers is the worst. She only had 7 correct answers! I also looked at the suggested wagers for FJ on the archive and Josh wagered the exact amount suggested.

My thoughts were -rebirth = phoenix, is there a Yes! there is an acting family named Phoenix. Me too with the Hughes. I also got Lungs and enjoyed Ken's little chiding remark about emphysema because that was why I guessed lungs.

I watched a show called Top Shot (I don't think it was aimed at my demographic -an older lady but I enjoyed it) They had a challenge once where they had to throw knives, all these people had excellent hand-eye coordination and even more excellent aim but almost all of them had a very steep learning curve in throwing a knife. If I remember rightly the technique they were taught was very similar to the spike throwing, both arms straight in front of you, then raise your throwing arm and on the downward trajectory you let go. I think the problems came when they actually did try to throw it like a dart. I really hoped the lumberjacks would've tried that task as I think they probably had the closest skill set for it, especially if they competed in any kind of 'lumberjack games'. I thought it was funny when Holden was just about to appease his sister in the middle of the argument and was interrupted by the brothers even louder argument.

But nobody here 'froze' Ernest was trying as much as he could.

The one I remember was when Dustin and Kandice had to team up with Charla and Mirna, those teams despised each other. I think the goat yoga women had an epic passive/aggressive fight on the first leg, I think because one of them talked to another passenger about the destination? The Sumo judge was making the funniest faces!

When? only people I can think were invited (parties with Humphrey or Jack) or the Fire Dept (Neville) or guests of guests (Neville's sister's friend, Dwayne's dad)

I'm not talking about filming. I'm talking about the fact that someone has lived in that shack for at least 15 years, year round, and yet, miraculously, no one even walks by on their way to somewhere else.

Ep: 14/4, the one with the distillery... I thought no one knew Anthony was going to be there? how was a poisoned ice cube made for him? since when is that a public beach? I've never seen another person there unless they'd been invited. Couldn't it have been placed somewhere not noticeable? I would've thought the AC unit would be more of a problem using so much electricity? As soon as Seb took a pic of the cans in the mini-bar we knew it would be important. And by the way, who puts their cans in the fridge like that!? they were all equidistant from each other, I would've grouped them by type or something.

My brain sort of went..... I haven't a clue, no way will I get this one. Blue square in the corner, hunh, like ours...Oh!! Liberia!

Because new people are discovering the show all the time and might not want to know the outcomes if they decide to 'catch up' by watching the old seasons on Paramount+. It used to be that different forums had different rules about spoilers and spoiling a different season was a no-no for some. But I don't know if the rules have changed and if this forum is one that wanted spoilers. I'll try to find out but sometimes I have trouble tracking down the rules. I do know there used to be a rule about spoiling another show -like Survivor- in TAR forums. ETA: here is the last rule I stated, still looking for this forum specific rule: No Cross-Show Spoilers: Avoid spoiling content related to specific shows, such as "True Detective," in forums dedicated to other series, like "Black Cake" or general discussion areas such as "Genre Talk."

Was that the literal and figurative "needle in the haystack"? Not sure if I'm supposed to spoiler tag challenges from other races?

I did think it a little funny that Roger tried it with Kennedy, I think there's enough Kennedys to always add the first name (or do the initials JFK, RFK) even though they had a pic.

As I mentioned to my daughter while we were watching, a few seasons ago, it was one of the 'bring back old teams ones' the 2nd one with Colin and Christie. Anyway, team 'Fun' did a dance challenge in Vietnam, I think, and nailed it on the first try. The judge told them to do it again, they did and got through but there was absolutely no reason not to have put them through on the first try. Later teams were much much worse and got through anyway. So yeah, judges are very subjective.

I think he was just afraid of heights, or really whatever it is called when you're on the edge of something and afraid of falling, 'cause I don't think he was afraid of paragliding? or whatever they did that was like that, and I think he actually said that if there had been a railing there he wouldn't have been so afraid. So actually stairs would've helped him. My thoughts also, like when they've had clues on holy grounds (mosque's etc) heads covered (for the women), no running, no loud voices. I did wonder though, did they shut down those stairs for filming? I didn't see anyone non-race going up or down, I think? Did they close because of the weather? I was telling my daughter that it's dangerous running up and down stairs in the rain. And I said it was -especially- dangerous to jump on the mat in the rain, there have been more than one team that slipped and fell at the mat because in was wet. In fact it was deemed so dangerous that I don't think they are supposed to do that anymore. You see them stop just before the mat with just their toes on it. I don't know what they would've done if it was a race for first with more than two teams all heading full out at Phil and the wet mat in the rain?
