Ep. 69: “Worried You’re Becoming a Vegetarian” in Bucharest
The Gaymazing Race
The Amazing Race teams descend on Bucharest, where they encounter a harrassy sinister chicken as they harvest Christ’s eggs in a big city park. All Express Passes have to be used up on this leg, as Eric and Tucker, and Jas and Jag continue to vie for the top two spots, with Kyland and Taylor trying to play spoilers. Team LezzBoss, Izzy and Paige find religion when they are blessed with a PAN FLUTE challenge at the detour.We are gifted with lesbian jazz-scatting on a public transportation platform. Adam, from the Brothers Keffiyeh, is running on fumes and needs to eat something before...

Ep. 68: “Non-Gentleman’s Agreement” in Romania
The Gaymazing Race
The consequences of running with the “Trainwreck” alliance come home to roost with team Sissy my Sissy, as The Amazing Race makes its way to Bucharest, Romania from Split, Croatia: Joseph & Adam nab the crucial last ticket on the first flight away from Natalie and Stephanie! Paige takes a 13,000 foot skydive roadblock for Team LezzBoss to spare Izzy the angst, and nearly all the teams make shit bricks at the detour in their bid to move on to the next leg. Tragically, the talented Negrotti sisters are eliminated in this episode. NOOOOOOO! But Nat and Steph came on to TGR to talk...

Ep. 67: Ston Butch Blues in Croatia
The Gaymazing Race
Are team LezzBoss getting the villain edit as the weeks wear on, while Jas and Jag are getting the lovable multifaceted hero edit? This week of The Amazing Race moves fast with lots of self-driving and a detour that makes our teams choose between hauling salt, or gathering oysters. We learn all about Kristene and Rubina’s sisterly bond forged through trauma, as they do their race “for their mama.” Izzy is seen working her frustrations out on a wheelbarrow that she ultimately apologizes to, while Taylor too lets out a yawp of frustration at a navigation and q&a challenge.

Ep. 66: Sisterhood is Powerful in Dubrovnik
The Gaymazing Race
This episode of The Amazing Race moved us to tears as dastardly U-Turns,and a controversial “gentleman’s agreement” led to three all-female teams competing to stay alive at the end of this leg in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Just when we were starting to feel for Jas and Jag after they struggled to hail taxis last week, they decide to U-Turn team LezBoss, while the Brothers Keffiyeh, Joseph and Adam pick on our short Pinay KWEENS, Kristene and Rubina. A glorious tuxedo cat plays the role of Greek chorus at the monkfish filet challenge, and Izzy lets the double birds fly in a barn burning...

Ep. 65: Bathhouse Kings and False Bottoms in Budapest
The Gaymazing Race
The Amazing Race heads to Budapest, where teams have the option of taking a direct sleeper train from Prague that arrives an hour later, or enduring three transfers to land an hour earlier. Which would YOU choose? Team Sissy-My-Sissy proves they can thrive without the Trainwreck alliance, and Izzy and Paige offer the realest lesbian bathing suit representation we’ve ever seen on TV. We’re profoundly upset by taxis passing up Jas and Jag bc of their appearance as (in their own words) “turbanators.” Plus, a clown gets overheated after being joyfully tackled by the Brothers Keffiyeh who...

Ep. 64: Foam Party + Strap and Plow in Kutna Hora
The Gaymazing Race
THEEEEE Izzy and Paige join Karen as guest-hosts this episode, while Nicole is off in the Pacific Northwest causing trouble. We recap the episode together from their insider’s perspective on what it felt like to run this leg, while reveling in all the gaymazing moments yielded by resident beer expert Stephanie, and Kristene of the 1-shot goal at hockey. Plus, we get a candid take on how Izzy and Paige feel about the Trainwreck alliance and the strategy behind the Driver’s Seat twist (or as we like to call it at TGR, the Knee Deep in the Passenger Seat strategy). This is a fun, super-sized...

Ep. 63: Swiping Right for HRNKY PRNKY in Prague
The Gaymazing Race
The teams dive into some old-school Amazing Race travel (by train) from the Netherlands to Prague. At the top of the pack, Jas and Jag (the self-dubbed “turbanators”) ally with the Brothers Keffiyeh, Joseph and Adam, and team Sister-my-Sister / Huju (aka hug-jump), Natalie and Stephanie. Team Orange, Kristene and Rubina sound like they’re speaking Klingon at the tavern crest-matching challenge, and Team Lesbos, aka LEZBOSS, Izzy and Paige tell us their love story, complete with photos taken in a U-Haul.

Ep. 62: “We’re Doin’ it For the Queers”
The Gaymazing Race
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...

Ultimatum: Queer Love S2E2 - "They F****** 'Til The Room Stank"
The Gaymazing Race
Creator of the Ultimatum Fantasy League Dani Wassel, and raconteur, writer and performer Amanda-Faye Jimenez join Karen and Nicole to process everything from "The Choice" to "Ultimatum Day." We discuss a range of topics from trial spouse criteria, to dommy mommy issues, to sexual loopholes and "good old fashioned tribadism." Happy 4th of July!
info_outlineThe 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.
