The Graves Were in Graves

Avoid crossing Honduras, because we are back for our fifth season of new/old Wie is de Mol episodes - and we're going back to 2011's offering in El Salvador & Nicaragua! Over these ten weeks, your three favourite unused Jokers - Logan, Michael & Bindles - are recapping and looking back at all that happened on the trip through two countries that we still can't quite believe they visited, continuing with the fifth episode and elimination of Jan.
In this episode - Bindles gets told off, we have an update on what Pieter Jan is now doing, there's a horrible suspicion Eureka could have been involved, we doubt that Jan has never ridden a horse before, Michael gets to ask a new question, Karin teaches us what it means to be "hangry", we wonder why we needed to see a calf get Mufasa'd, we try and quantify the size of a ping pong ball, next week's banner gets teased, our plan to befriend Pieter Jan gains steam, there is a rare suspicion scene, the execution gets relocated, we wonder if Jan deserves to be talked about more, Logan locks in his fifth set of suspicions and we tease a very unique challenge next week.
Thank you for listening - we will see you next week for Episode 6!
Please note: This season is intended on being spoiler-free, so please watch the episodes along with us. As with our coverage of Seasons 14 & 17, there are no spoilers due to Logan not having seen the season before. However, any season we have already covered (WIDM 10, 14, 17-23 and Renaissance; Belgie 4-11) is fair game though.
Additional note: Of course we were going to use Pieter Jan's reaction this week! He's a delight.

In this episode - we already forget who went home, the health & safety laws of El Salvador prove a little lax, we wonder why Amazing Race has never been to El Salvador or Nicaragua (at least as of the time of recording!), Art gets a lot of airtime, we're blessed to have Soundos & Karin, Bindles tells a joke that will age horribly, Pieter Jan warms up for next week's tour de force performance, there's a tantrum about a flag, we look ahead to some people trafficking, Michael recommends a documentary series, we reveal what Karin wrote in her Molebook, Bindles is on harness watch, Art is woefully unprepared, we reveal how the fog was cleared, Logan's fourth suspicions are locked in and the bus challenge slightly backfired on Production.

Additional note: El Salvador seems like a very fun place to go at this point, mainly because we're about to leave!

However, any season we have already covered (WIDM 10, 14, 17-23 and Renaissance; Belgie 4-11) is fair game though.
Additional note: For years, we've wondered when he'd say it and finally Horace gave us what we wanted. And by that, of course we mean "the revelation that New York is actually Dutch".

Additional note: It's finally happened - Shane & Andrew finally broke the streak, but will it continue now our heroes have fallen? Only one way to find out!
