Best episode? I may have been distracted while watching, so please don't judge me for this, but I liked the previous episode better. The editing was so good. The thing with the monkeys, where we cut to Sam and Michael going "oh look, monkeys", right as Ben and Adam are going up monkey mountain. There were a couple of really good edits in that episode.

What was up with the can selection? Did I miss something about how the challenge was written? Why did they buy soda cans, and not something in short and wide cans, like tuna? I mean Adam could have stacked twice the cans.

I was hoping that they'd address this in the podcast, but alas. Maybe it's discussed in the "official comment section" on reddit. IDK I'm not going to look.

BTW how crazy was the crayon mastermind timing? Michael is definitely not done, and here's the train pulling into the station in the background. The decision they would have had to make a minute later was killing me. Abandon a challenge that Adam will ace, to be sure to get to the steal in Taipei first, or risk not getting there first?

I'd have agreed with you last week, because every episode of the season has been the best yet in my eyes :D there were some really nice cuts and well edited moments in the last episode for sure.

For me I really liked the intensity of the latest episode, and the feeling that there was a lot at stake for Ben and Adam, because they really need to break through the north-eastern wall of chips.

I had a look at the challenge card again, and it says "standard size cans". I presume what exactly that means is clarified more in their own private rules.

Yeah, that was so close! I feel like it's rare for us to see the time pressure so viscerally.
