Just a heads up, Chicago is undergoing a deep freeze/wind chill advisory tonight and experience has proven that a power outage for me can happen any time tonight. If the electricity fails, can someone watching fill my spot? I would thank you so much and appreciate if someone could be part of my show update team.

 :HNY: AND MAY THE PREMIERE BE IN EVERYONE'S INTEREST!

And WE ARE ON THE AIR! Season 30 is officially underway! Hallelujah!

Our first scene is Phil elated, excited, and enthused over the tri-nniversary of the race course in a HELICOPTER! Many have gathered in Washington Square Park to watch this spectacle! They have assembled 11 teams of the most competitive people yet.

Joey & Tim are ranked in competitive eating. Gross... but interesting.

Cedric & Shaun are former NBA players and running this will be a slam dunk.

Dessie & Kay are Team Mitchfits? and they work in the boxing industry as promoters too!

Alex & Conor, Team Indy, are driven to compete. Nice pun. They are also roommates.

April & Sarah are legends in goat yoga pioneering. (Henry & Evan are slightly pissed being forgotten.)

Phil and teams have a tiny discussion period..... Trevor & Chris bump fists.

After the intro, Alex and Conor are shown in their taxi.
Lucas & Brittany can't read a compass. (They are ocean rescue lifeguards and have rescued over a thousand people from drowning. Lucas plans to engage to Brit on the race.)
April & Sarah have a ton of goats and love yoga. Thus goat + yoga = goat yoga. They also have more talents. "We goat this!" Cringe.
Henry & Evan were Yale graduates and Evan won the Panamerican championship debater. They don't scream-yell at each other.
Eric & Daniel introduce "twin talk": talking but you know you don't have it. They are twins at life with the same firefighting career and hobbies
Trevor & Chris want to be friends with everyone, but want to destroy everyone like mallets. They are orchestral performers and mash them up with popular music, their peak at number 8 on Billboard.

Teams are on their way to Iceland!
