Ep. 62: "We're Doin' it For the Queers"

We're back covering season 38 of The Amazing Race, which is filled with Big Brother contestants and GAYS! Phil greets teams in the "cradle of democracy," as they're collectively tasked with human bowling, creating cheese pyramids and color-coordinating gerber daisies, the flowers Karen calls "90s lesbian coded." We LOVE Izzy and Paige, who look like they're already part of our friend group (Thanks for inviting us to the S38 Hollywood Premiere Party)! We also have our eyes on the core lady-to-lady teams who finished near the top at this week's pit stop, including Nicole's early fan-fic faves, Kristene and Rubina (hi Pinay sisters!). We're also obsessed with Natalie and Stephane, the team we're calling "sister-my-sister," who "huju," or "hug jump" their way through the opening episode. SAD NEWS: we are no longer a part of the elimination station junket, but we'll be bringing in some of this season's teams by other means.
