Phil Keoghan was back on my show today to talk about “The Amazing Race All-Stars Edition.”
Ironically, Phil was supposed to do this interview from New York, but he was stuck in Los Angeles because of bad weather on the east coast. I asked if that had ever happened to him while filming the show, and while he’s never suffered delays like those JetBlue customers at JFK Airport yesterday, he was once detained and refused entry into the Ukraine during the race — the teams kept going while he sat in a sparse detention room waiting to be freed.
Then we discussed how the relationships between team members have always been the essence of “The Amazing Race,” and how that has changed for the all-stars who have been there before — and whether their previous travel experience made it easier or harder this time around.
Listen to our conversation here.
