You want details, you say?
Stick around until the end of the column, when all will be made clear.

Theyre such noseists.)
Now back to the Race…
Lets take stock of our final three.
Next stop in the Race?
Its located right next to Shamestown.
Then there were Margie and Luke.
This certainly set up a moral quandary in choosing who to root for.
It was like finding out that a post-cancer Lance Armstrong is the one who keeps shortsheeting your bed.
And finally, we had Cara and her thoroughly unpleasant friend Jaime.
As the finale started, Cara said that from the beginning, shes said, Dont underestimate us.
From the beginning Jaime, on the other hand, has been saying, SPEAK ENGLISH!
WHATS WRONG WITH YOU IDIOTS?
And then…and then…and then well have them haul a dead pig around!
Jeez, why not have them put on negligees and then embalm a corpse?
Before carrying it, they had to prep it with, as Phil put it, real island flavoring.
Is that anything like the real truth flavor?
(Ronald, I miss you each and every day.)
Tammy could barely manage three steps without dropping the pole.
Stressful for her, but quite an ignominious funeral for the pig.
It was so hot.
And then one of them started yelling at me and didnt stop for the rest of the day.
As much as Tammy struggled with the pig, Cara was struggling even more.
And as youd imagine, Jaime was not all that understanding.
and This is how you lose a million dollars!
After a while, Ill bet Cara started feeling envious of the pig.
Hes got bad hearing, and an even worse attitude.
(But not before things got a bit testy when Margie started snapping as Luke back-seat Jet-Skiied.)
Behind them, the next two teams were neck and neck.
As the driver, he insisted on also checking the buoys.
With this challenge, Margie and Luke really elongated their lead.
The angry retort didnt stop Jaime from yelling at the driver.
What the hell do they have to gain by breaking all speed laws for her?
Luke and Margie arrived at the final Roadblock long before anyone else.
The task was, as perAmazing Racetradition, a memory game about all previous legs of the Race.
Ive always found this tradition lacking in entertainment value.
Maybe its because I have a lousy memory.
Mental challenges areby definitionnot that visually compelling.
But he could not kill the deal, getting the last two legs wrong over and over again.
Victor caught up to and then passed him; even Jaime caught up to him.
And yet, suddenly she was missing only two, neck and neck with Luke.
In the end, Tammy and Victor handily won.
Fortunately, both had partners to buck them up and deny all guilt.
And so endeth the season.
(see to it to check outPhils blogto hear his closing remarks.)
But what about you and I?
Will we have to wait until next season to talk again?
Werent you listening when this article started?
Ive got big plans for us!
Well all watch it over the week, and then meet back at EW.com on Thursday morning.
(Look for my post on the home page that day.)
Has he found a groove?
Does he have the chops to last in late night?
Does he bring anything new to the table, or is he just another nerdy white guy?
Oh, and the best thing about the Pop Culture Club?
Its not pot luck.
Feel free to eat during the discussion without worrying that you dont have enough for the group.
