The snippets of information from the link above got me interested to see how much information I could find about the latest edition of the show. I found some interesting things... some of which could be considered spoilers, so if you don't want to know, better go on to the next message. I don't mind.

Casting call on Spanix.com - looking for only two teams, darn it. Also lists the projected starting and ending points.
Filming permit in Greater Miami

Now comes the real fun stuff:

Milwaukee contestant tries to make the final cut
Milwaukee contestant returns home

Though you really should read all of these articles (they're not very long), let me try to summarize them:

* Greg Matzek, a radio producer/bartender, will be one of the contestants. He's 25.
* Filming was done in late April and into May.
* The list has 50 tasks this time. Contestants still have to do 10, but can't repeat a task that another team has done. The point in italics is a key change, and one I think will help the show.
* It's still one task per state and 5 per time zone.
* Summer Sanders is mentioned as host. Does this mean we won't have Rich tell us about the 12-hour rule anymore?
* Greg's group got along well. I'm sorry to hear that.
* The players were miked from wakeup to bedtime, but not necessarily in cars. Interesting.
* Producers monitored all phone conversations. Creepy.
* One team made it to Mt. Rushmore and won (I assume).
* Greg spent 2 1/2 weeks on the road.
* The season starts July 8.
