I miss podcasting about Walking Dead!

Nobody parties like #RHAP fans. Seriously, y’all are the greatest and it’s an honor and a Gervase to be a contributor on this incredible network for these amazing listeners.

Kalish and Zed were watching the Yankee game during breaks. I wonder if I should be doing the same with Amazing Race…

I think it’s only in the main RHAP feed, for some reason people weren’t finding it in the TAR feed.

At least nobody on ours called it “Praha, Prague” like a couple of people on the show did.

New theory: Taylor Swift is an #AmazingRace superfan and was so dismayed by the number of racers in season 36 who’d never heard of Elizabeth Taylor that she took it upon herself to educate the youths.

Nate: (talking about how much older he is than his tribemates, and how he’s struggling to adapt to a group that barely speaks the same language and views him as an elder)
Me: jeez, how ancient IS this guy?
(Checks)
Yeah, he’s a whole year older than I am. #Survivor49

I haven’t cracked up this hard in a podcast since the night Josh figured out who the Season 2 Mole was.

“What’d I Miss” sounds like it borrowed some chords off of “Innervisions”.

I was listening to the “Hamilton” soundtrack yesterday and thinking about the VERY strong Stevie Wonder influences.

Honestly that would have been a coin flip for me whether the mat greeter was Dvořák or Smetana. #AmazingRace

In case you needed another reason to get hyped for #RHAP live know-it-alls in a couple of weeks…

Jessica Liese @jessliese.bsky.social · 13d

You’re probably right…and I spent an entire afternoon last summer touring an old herring factory and trying very hard to pay attention to a long lecture about salt-curing herring, so I really have no excuse.

Isn’t “you’re more level headed than I am right now” something Angela could say to just about anyone at any time and it would be true? #AmazingRace

Flower judge is clearly so jazzed to have an excuse to take that jacket out of his closet. #AmazingRace

The contrast between Enzo and Jack’s “actually, the herring is pretty good” and the massive amounts of gagging and retching in #AmazingRace Australia is striking.

My info is out of date but in the olden days every team got some kind of stipend from about $2K for the first team out to $50K for the runners up.

I always use #AmazingRace, because of economy of characters and clarity of purpose 🤓
