A clue? Here is the audio - I was trying NOT to give anything away - it might be all bullpucky or maybe these two should not have been on the radio. But there is no doubt which of the three reamaining teams it sounded like.

I wrote a story and posted audio.

Two Amazing Race contestants in NYC (potential Spoiler)?

Landi - that is what I was thinking - I think all three teams are in town so them being on the air wasn't anything major - but one of the radio guys sure thought they might be getting in trouble.

Yes, but at least we know that Freddy is worthy of fathering Kendra's children.

A friend just asked me where do the contestants go when they get Philiminated? I assume it is like Survivor where they don't get to go home, but are instead kept secluded on a mini-vacation, but I don't really know for sure. Does anyone know?

Interesting to see all the winners and see how many times I've been happy with the results, which is most of the time. Only twice have I been disgusted.

I don't know if this has been discussed elsewhere, but for those of you who didn't see The Early Show this morning...Yolanda was surprised when Ray got down on one knee and proposed. She said "Yes!"

Brenda, past contestants have said that they are kept in "Sequesterville". Here is some info: link According to a report from TARCon9, this season's Sequesterville was Lisbon, Portugal.

Found out that Tyler is supposed to be on the radio here, WGN 720am, in Chicago right after 1:00 a.m. You can listen online to the station too:

CBS TO KICK OFF "THE AMAZING RACE PROMOBILE TOUR" WITH HELP FROM A PEORIA, ILLINOIS FAMILY

Beginning June 30, CBS steers its promotional machine into unchartered territory when the Network advertises on a motor home commandeered by a Peoria, Illinois man who is traveling the country this summer along with his wife and four teenage sons.

The family devised the innovative concept to sell advertising space on their motor home by posting information about their summer vacation plans on EBay.

"I saw this posting on the web and immediately thought a traveling motor home would be the perfect vehicle to reach 'Amazing Race' viewers this summer," commented George Schweitzer, President of the CBS Marketing Group. "What better way to reach our core audience than by visiting them on the road and on their vacations at tourist sites across the country."

Beginning June 30, the Amazing Race Promobile will begin its journey from Peoria and will travel to various cities across the United States, visiting national landmarks including Yellowstone National Park and the Rocky Mountains, baseball games, campgrounds and annual summer events. During these visits, the family will canvas the city, disseminating promotional material for THE AMAZING RACE and spreading the word about the upcoming season and its new Sunday night time period. With cameras rolling, the family will interview people they meet along the way and will catch up with former Amazing Racers when they visit their hometowns. The interviews will appear as a webcast that will be streamed online on the CBS.com broadband channel, "Innertube." The Amazing Race RV tour stops include: Des Moines, Iowa; Lincoln, Neb.; Denver; Salt Lake City; Yellowstone National Park; Billings, Mont.; Bismarck, N.D.; Minneapolis; Madison, Wisc., Milwaukee; Chicago; Nashville, Tenn. among others.

THE AMAZING RACE will air Sundays (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) beginning this fall on CBS.

?? I think it's actually opposite Extreme Makeover Home Edition -- Housewives is 9:00 and Grey's is 10:00 (if we're talking EST times, anyway)

Teach, it was probably the only good place to put it because CBS has such a strong lineup...Wednesdays at 9 was just a short-term fix in the spring. It's a family night...and the competition isn't too bad, if you don't want to watch Football Night in America on NBC...

Thanks for the info -- hadn't paid any attention to all the moving around for the fall yet. :-) Shoot -- I'm avoiding thinking about fall because that means SCHOOL, and I just started my "vacation"! LOL

I thought Grey's was moving to Thursdays?

I would love TAR at 7 (Central) -- I would have to TIVO it because of church but what a great thing to come home to!

We tivo it every week Roxip -- I've gotten to the point where I HATE to sit through commercials for my favorite shows! :-) We get season passes for almost all our favorites; usually we watch it later that night (so I can come here w/o worrying about seeing information), but it's really handy when I'm in musical rehearsals at school. How did we live before TIVO?!? :-)
