A limited podcast series on The Amazing Race from an LGBTQ point-of-view, hosted by authors, profs & professional queers Nicole J. Georges & Karen Tongson.
The Amazing Race heads to Bali, and our special guest co-hosts Ricky & César, the winners of season 36, join Karen to process the first ever “Driver’s Seat” aka “Knee Deep in the Passenger Seat” challenge. Our Gaymers Carson and Jack bring multiple gaymazing moments in taxicabs and on their ATVs this episode. Meanwhile, Team Cirque du so Gay, Mark and Brett hustle hard while telling us about their skin care routine and the importance of Zen. Our last sapphic-coded duo, Team Cardigan (Bernie and Carrigain) are in the back of the pack and we are on pins and needles figuring out if they’ll survive being saddled w/ extra weight at the rice threshing Road Block. Plus, confirmation on whether or not our gaydar is at least half right as we check in with Bernie and Carrigain in our Elimination Station.…
Both Karen and Nicole are recording on the road after their own planes, trains and automobiles, so their Amazing Race recap is a little more “gestalt” than precise for S37, E4, as the teams travel to Kyoto on the bullet train. Ironically, both our sapphic fanfic team, Bernie and Carrigain and our actual sapphic team, Courney and Jasmin are in trouble on this leg after being confronted by a sporty challenge. Soccer opens our eyes to the bisexual potential of a couple of the other teams. While all the teams struggle with being ninjas, including our gaymers, Mark does give good face during the fold-it origami challenge. At the pitstop, we learn about a NEW challenge structure called the “Driver’s Seat,” which conjured echoes of Chappel Roan in our heads. Sadly, Nicole welcomes our sapphic nurses, Courtney and Jasmin to Elimination Station.…
The Amazing Race continues onto Osaka, Japan, and some of our gaymazing suspicions are confirmed, as we learn about the gamers (aka “gaymers”) cute back-story of coming out to each other as young gays who weren’t gay for each other. We’ve rechristened Carrigain with the sapphic Gaylor nickname, “Cardigan,” and Nicole has pointed out that Bernie’s tongue is pierced and looks good with her hoodie. Meanwhile, the teams drum, wrestle sumos and make mochi, while Karen insists on adding “making mochi” to the gay lexicon. We sit down with Bubblegum, aka Bridget and her rappin’ dad Ernest in the elimination station this week after Ernest struggles on the Taiko drums.…
What is bun-scrambling, and who’s good at it? And which daddy gets to be “a female” in an opera singing challenge in Hong Kong? Welcome back to the Gaymazing Race!!! Season 37 of The Amazing Race debuts with 14 teams, the most ever to compete on the first leg. This is owed to the introduction of a NEW challenge structure, the “Fork in the Road,” where teams are divided for the detour and the pit stop, effectively narrowing the competition to just 7 teams on each side. Who survives this cutthroat best-of-seven showdown in Hong Kong?! We meet several gaymazing teams, including cirque du soleil supergays Brett and Mark, sapphic nurses Courtney and Jasmin, and others who flash jazz hands and sport tattoos, while having gender neutral names. Sadly, our two most mature teams end up chatting in our elimination station, Mark and Harry, and Jackye and Lauren.…
Once again, we were tantalized by the promise of a historic GALA (Gay and Lesbian Alliance) between Ricky & Cesar and Yvonne & Melissa, as the final five hit the Dominican Republic to water slide into natural grottoes, harvest cacao and play some D.R.-style “beisbol.” Sadly, Melissa is stumped by a rock-symbol challenge and Yvonne’s struggled to make a bottlecap fly with a broomstick.. With just a two-minute gap between 4th and last, our girls who like girls who like the Amazing Race ended up in our elimination station, where they give us the ins and outs of their own “Gaymazing Race.” Plus we finally learn their zodiac signs!…
The Amazing Race gets busy in Barbados, Rihanna’s homeland. We admire their tiny jeeps and racquet sports skills, though the teams still struggle with navigation. There’s another tantalizing possibility of another all gay alliance at the fish pot detour. Leading up to it Team Walla Walla Mama & Son LOSE THEIR CREW, which sends them directly to our Elimination Station.…
The Amazing Race teams head to Uruguay where Brokeback Fannypack is under the weather, and Sunny and Bizzy are looking forward to a “Girls night out, girls night in.” Parenting emerges as a leitmotif in this episode, and we see Walla Walla Momma and Son emerge from the pack to run their own race. Ricky and César and Yvo and Melissa–aka, THE GAYS–all take on a Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence-style Detour, and we are devastated (but also thrilled) to welcome our favorite Midwestern firefighter ladies, Sunny and Bizzy into our Elimination Station.…
Friend of the pod Kat Spada from Feminist Frequency Radio sits in for Nicole this week, as The Amazing Race moves to Argentina for gaymazing challenges that involve recycling and meat puzzles. Can Ricky & César keep Shane and Juan, aka Brokeback Fannypack from overtaking their top position? The girls who like girls, Yvonne and Melissa, and the other girls who like wraparound sunglasses, Sunny and Bizzy, explore an alliance together as the other three boy/girl teams, Rod and “Chichi,” Walla Walla Momma and Son (Danny and Angie), and Team Anesthesia (Vinny and Amber) block them out of the of the meat puzzle detour.. This leaves our Sexy Grandparents Derek and Shelisa the odd on’s out, and they sadly have to join us in our elimination station.…
Sorry for the delay in getting this episode out! Nicole recorded this mere hours before her own amazing race to a meditation retreat, and our production assistant Corky (Karen's cat) kept pausing the recording to give notes. He's very picky.
Ajuan Mance, an artist, illustrator and author of many books and comics series joins us on our own megaleg, as The Amazing Race continues in Colombia. A rebus puzzle nearly derails our favorite lady firefighters, Sunny and Bizzy, who at this point are showing more enthusiasm for each other than the girls who like girls who like hiking. Ricky and César continue their gay excellence, while Vinny exercises his Pinoy patience with Amber as she struggles with self confidence. Things get artsy and anguished to the very finish, and we (tearfully) welcome Team Double Dutch, Michelle and Sean to our Elimination Station.…
Ricky & César remain strong as they cruise through the first Colombian leg of The Amazing Race, which involves cooking platters of meats, salty abuelas, and squeezing coffee bean baskets between one’s knees. Whither the girls who like girls, Yvonne and Melissa, who get nary an edit in this ep, as the firefighter sheroes prove why they’re shaping up to be a perfect fan fic duo, babe, for this year’s cast. The Encino Man twins, aka Floribama Shore, aka Anthony and Bailey join us for a cute elimination station. Plus, more on Vinny’s Filipinoness and our confusion about why he doesn’t know what chicharron is.…
Melissa, one of the girls who likes girls on The Amazing Race spawns the first lesbian catch phrase of the season. Nicole and KT take bets about whether or not she’s a Virgo or a Scorpio. This season continues to SERVE gaymazingness and intrigue, as Ricky and Cesar, and Yvonne and Melissa finish in the top 5. KT shares more insider gaycation info about Puerto Vallarta, and the bustling gay district of Zona Romantica, where this leg is run, and we say goodbye to our favorite Zaddy Chris and his dear daughter Mary in the Elimination Station.…
We are BACK, and both Karen and Nicole have a lot of annoying Puerto Vallarta expertise to share, as they marvel at this season’s gaymazing cast. Which butch daddy are both hosts enamored with in between their distracted chatter about The Traitors US, UK, Australia and New Zealand? And what do they make of this season’s LGBTQ+ abundance? Maya and Rohan, siblings and Amazing Race superfans from birth join us in this week’s elimination station.…
It’s a nailbiter of a finale for season 35 of The Amazing Race, as the top three teams scramble throughout Seattle without coffee. The “grunge” challenge leads to some challenging understanding of tops, while “glass” requires everyone learn how to blow. “Grab” becomes someone’s Carrie Bradshaw moment, and we talk to all three finalists in our last mega-sized elimination station of the season.…
