minute, he added “it was a definite no brainer to
race for her.”
The Amazing Race Canada is designed to be
the ultimate adventure race. As seen in the first
episode of season 4, the show will test how well a
team can communicate, read a map, kayak,
handle heights, etc. In the application FAQs,
prospective racers are reminded that this is,
above all, “a relationship show.”
That relationship shines through. “They’re
like an old married couple,” Candy, Brandon’s
mom commented on the sideline of our
interview. “Look at the way they look at each
other before answering, and then practically
finish each other’s sentences.”
The guys did struggle with the role of
leadership. “Trying to figure out when one
person would lead and the other would follow
was one of the toughest challenges,” said
Anthony, laughing. “We knew that would be a
problem. I like to be right and he always likes to
be right too.”
It’s no secret the personalities of the two
coworkers shine bright. And for an episode, at
least, it made for entertaining TV. Nonetheless,
the two were a bit anxious as to how much screen
time they’d get.
Anthony was nervous for the big reveal. “For
me, I swear quite a bit. I would purposely swear
when I didn’t want them to show something,
thinking of how embarrassing it was.”
Brandon’s face lights up as he had flashbacks
to all the times he would have to tell Anthony to
watch his language. “We had warnings saying
‘watch the language’ or ‘you can’t say that’ but
every five minutes Anthony was saying
something. They also have a lot of recorded
footage of us just goofing around so it should be
cool to see what makes it on TV.”
What did make it to air should definitely be
enough to get the guys a role in the next buddy
movie. Anyone watching that first episode won’t
soon forget Anthony’s “Move it, Bambi!” from
behind the wheel as an elk crossed their path in
Jasper Alberta. The moment had been preserved
as an Internet GIF and started to circulate before
the episode’s end. They claim their team, if it had
a nickname, would be called “white chocolate”
but we like to think of them as Pixar’s Woody
and Buzz Lightyear.
