S35.E11: We're Finding Our Pot of Gold

[tvfanatic13]

I can’t choose who I want to win because I love them all, something I have never said before. Can we have a 3-way tie??

Loved this episode and there was noticeable chemistry between Corey and that dance instructor. 

Dublin is a great city, and I thought for sure they’d be playing cricket. I felt bad for bearded racer who was sweating through is dance shirt. That dance judge was so kind.

Greg/John - They seem arrogant.  They seem to have done everything you can think of.  They speak every language (so it seems).  If you asked them if the have ever worked for the "Dole factory for major maggots" they would probably say "We've dabbled in it a bit"  Ugh!

 

I don't find a refreshingly broad knowledge base and education arrogant, I find it laudable and depressingly rare here in the States.

I used to volunteer at our local public radio station during pledge drives.  We were encouraged to ask callers for feedback - I'll never forget the one guy who told me he didn't like the station's recent addition of the news program "The World" because he wasn't interested in news beyond the US.

I don't find their knowledge of everything arrogant, but I do find the comment of "oh one win, that's so cute" kind of rude. Some great teams have been taken down by taxis and other things in the last leg, so he might want to brush up on his history of TAR and realize it's anyone's game in the finale.

They touched on that in their recap.

Sounds like code for Sales.

(This was about Corey's title, something something client strategy and analytics.) I have Strategy in my title, my colleagues have Analytics, and all our work is client/account based...and about the last thing we do is Sales! Of course I can't speak for what he actually does but I doubt it's that. Data is a good guess.

100% agree. They are flat-out impressive, and have clearly had a broad and rich education in their lives. Language, music, technology, even kayaking. They are so smart and have their shit together. Good for them.

Rob and Corey have my heart vote, they are just pure joy. They were called goody two shoes above -- why is that bad?! They are so kind, and I love that.

But I can't say a bad word about the any of the final teams. They are all great pairs, supportive and capable.
