Pretty disappointing in how it played out. Would be cool to see them pop up at the beginning of the next leg. TAR has brought back a team due to certain circumstances a few seasons back. 🤷♂️👀
Angie and Danny, you two were the "heart" of this season's race. To be fair, I think you two should be invited to do a future season of the Amazing Race to make up for this crazy crew faux pas.
Agree with Amy they should never have been put in that situation. Just got a car that fits the crew. Also agree with James, safety issue that puts a lot on tired racers, that are navigating and driving on the opposite side of the road. That’s a lot of mental bandwidth to take up in a high emotion situation. How the hell did it take the crew so long to catch up when they knew the destination? Basically it’s a travesty that they were penalised for production’s error.
Unlike you all I have not raced, so I don’t know how the written rules are. However, I think I would have pulled off immediately upon losing them and radioed that we are waiting at that roundabout exit.
They did, unfortunately that was left on the cutting room floor. And they were also debriefed that morning by security if they lose their crew to drive and meet them at the next task.
I think someone in production screwed up and made the wrong choice and Danny and Angie paid for it. This show has been on for too long to make mistakes like this. I don’t think the “this hasn’t happened before” point excuses this. It was just such poor judgment and I know at the time there had to be crew there who knew this was the wrong decision. There were SO many better ways to handle this situation- to the point that having them wait for 1.5 hours doesn’t even make sense. In no way, shape, or form is it the team’s responsibility to make sure their crew stays with them. That’s ridiculous. It wasn’t a high-speed chase. The phrasing of “they lost their crew” is frustrating me because it seems like production is trying to put the blame and responsibility on Danny and Angie when we all know as long as your not driving crazy it’s the the person flowing you’s responsibility to keep up with you. Also, one of my biggest issues with this is that production didn’t do anything to rectify this poor decision. They could have let them stay and be on the bottom next leg or have a penalty.
Danny doesn't want to stop...so they go through the rotary over 3 times...the crew got sick of doing something that was rude. Danny and Angie....first, should have exited and found their way. Second...USE THE RADIO for communication ....they had a radio for a reason. Third...stop at first stop after rotary.... Eventually another crew filmed them at the challenge....they screwed up. Sorry it cost them the race.
as former racers we clearly would disagree with this, it's such a grey area and there are so many factors to take into consideration. either way, whatever happened it ultimately cost them the race and it was a heartbreaking way to go out.
Angie warned Danny in the roundabout that they lost the crew he said keep driving plus they have a radio no? Fault on both sides imho. Plus they took a longgggg time at the trap😢 tough break tho we love this team!
Ohhh they did! Sigh😢. They (amazing race production team) definitely need to revisit that rule and how its managed. Thx for your reply love your podcast rvws. 😊
@@itswillandjames I watch the episode a few days delayed and get to recaps as I have time at work. When I watch doesn’t mean that’s when I see the video is up. I’ve been a subscriber for a few seasons and patterns aren’t hard to pick up on.
@@johndavis6719 Danny gave me a Norman Bates vibe. I guess has not got any friends or relatives available. I cannot understand how previously he allowed his very middle aged mother to enter a racing car with the result that she almost suffered heat exhaustion and then to compound matters allowed his mother to be tossed around on a soccer field. He is the one who should have done those tasks.
Great that you brought on that terrific scientists team - Amy and Maya!! - love them!
they are the best!!! love them. so glad they could join us for this weeks' recap.
Great recap- and so fun to have so many castmates in the chat

Mya still looks good glad to see Amy and Mya still friends thats going to see.
The crew that cost Danny and Angie the race better not let me catch them outside
Good podcast.
Thank you so much, Nikki!!!
Do you think they told to wait because there's no non elimination legs??
hmm good question!! I wish we had more answers :(

I'm so sad Danny and Angie got eliminated this way. It feels very unfair on productions part.

In the hour and a half they could have looked at the footage from Danny and Angie’s car…
Sure unusual but in risk management it’s not unforeseen scenario and I’m surprised production didn’t have a rule for it.

We saw Danny radio, they did the right thing by making their way to the task, they just shouldn’t have had their race paused. It’s such a grey area.

@@marshajulessa2995 Of course!! thanks for commenting, Marsha and being a supporter of our recaps.
TAR has been around for 20+years, disappointing of how production handled this situation. Is really unfair to Danny and Angie.
Everybody was beeping at Angie. I dont think she was driving the safest
Haha Cayla talking about spoilers when this “pod” often spoils it for me with the team who leaves being pictured on the cover. 😭
It’s not a spoiler if it’s not indicated that they are an eliminated team. 🤷 Plus, it’s been a week since the episode aired. Thanks for watching!

I think that Angie wanted to leave the race and worked with the production team to leave with dignity. I cannot prove any of this.
I agree she looked gassed and wanted to go home Danny should have chosen someone younger.

@christopherwebb1758 I agree but I think he did the other challenge and it was his Moms turn lol he does give out weird vibes.
