Silence is a Tacit Endorsement

Get really enthusiastic about pronouns, as we are back for our second season of old Amazing Race recaps - Amazing Race Australia 2! Over these twelve weeks, three people who sit there and say "awkward!" from the sidelines - Logan, Michael & Michelle - are recapping a season that has an insane reputation amongst fans (which is completely justified), continuing with the fifth leg and second non-elimination leg.

In this episode - Michelle gets a very Michelle intro, Paul doesn't understand collusion, James & Sarah's fight continues, Paul gets credit for staying calm, we wonder if anyone comes out of the marina argument looking good, Michael introduces everyone to Taskmaster, we explain why Sticky & Sam have exes, the meaning of cowardice is explained after the U-Turn, Michelle & Jo prove to be very successful, Logan learns something new, Michelle's daughters are allowed out of the oubliette to roll their eyes, the Istanbul Incident is told from a very interesting perspective, we go through the history of the Hagia Sophia, Logan makes a dumb joke, Michelle reaches her limit, Lucy & Emilia nearly break their streak, we wonder if it was the right call to take the penalty and next week's not-so-great episode is foreshadowed.

Thank you for listening - we will see you next week for Leg 6!

Please note: This episode is intended on being spoiler-free - however, as with our other historical recaps, this episode may contain references to episodes that we have already covered - namely from Seasons 3; 23-32; Australia 3; Canada 2-5 and Asia 5.

Additional note: Alright, everybody strap in - it's going to be a bumpy ride for the next few episodes! Lots of confrontation coming...
