updates on jaggedwolf's favored tar 36 teams

ricky and cesar (m/m NYC couple): are killing it and finally got that first place finish! they got a lead on the stairs - physical ability is not everything on this race, but it is important. interestingly, on the stairs there was a shot of cesar carrying both their bags, and on the way down on the coffee farm there was a shot of ricky carrying both bags. latter might be getting cesar to starting the roadblock asap, but I am curious if cesar is actually faster than ricky and not just the more type-A racer. (you usually only see one teammate carrying another's bag in mother-son or m-f pairs, both examples we saw this ep)

yvonne and melissa (f/f San Diego couple): either they killed phil's dog or are going to go home from COVID in a couple of episodes because they are egregiously underedited in these 90 minute episodes - this is not just jaggedwolf's disproportionate interest in the girlfriends, okay, other TAR watchers mention they keep forgetting they exist. I'm hoping against hope that it's just that they are a combination of middle-of-the-pack + non-dramatically efficient🤞 but f/f couples have a terrible track-record on TAR

angie and danny (mother & son from Walla Walla). more boring this episode, and angie had plain bad strategy on the roadblock. somehow survived another leg due to the double dutchers and the twins not even being on the same planet as everyone else

kishori and karishma (cousins): how do they still have this much energy? love them panicking about undercooking meat because neither of them have ever eaten or cooked meat and then doing fine with that but undercooking the plantains. also love karishma being surrounded by coffee bushes and still being convinced the picking challenge would involve picking things off trees and thus making her taller cousin do it.

#yet another shoutout to nfl guy and his wife: they had a moment where they were like oh she does all the cooking #and i was going to be like oh okay typical she'll handle all of the cooking challenge #but they immediately followed it up with he does all the baking #and they did work as a good pair in that challenge! #also shoutout to vinny he did actually kill that cherry challenge some of those racers were lesiurely taking their time up there #tar #tar36 #jaggedwolf rambles #mine
