The Amazing Race Season 37 aired its latest episode on April 16, 2025, featuring a self-driving leg through Bulgaria. All teams started from the same flight and faced a series of new challenges, including a Double U-Turn. In Negushevo, teams participated in a Kukeri offering task by filling crates with apples. From there, they traveled to the Osoitsa Village Library to choose between two Detours: Haystack or Woodstack.
While many teams struggled with directions and task decisions, Alyssa and Josiah remained consistent. After completing the haystack task efficiently, they continued to lead through the Roadblock at Snezha’s Farm, where Alyssa had to milk a sheep. Their performance helped them reach the Pit Stop first, winning a trip to Marrakesh, Morocco.
Fans of The Amazing Race took to X to react to Alyssa and Josiah’s bond during the episode.

Alyssa and Josiah's teamwork leads to a first-place finish in The Amazing Race
In the latest episode of The Amazing Race, the teams landed in Bulgaria and began a self-driving leg across the countryside. Their first destination was Negushevo, where they had to complete a Kukeri offering by filling crates with apples and performing a traditional ritual.
Jonathan and Ana arrived first, closely followed by Alyssa and Josiah, who completed the task quickly and stayed near the front of the pack. From there, teams traveled to the Osoitsa Village Library for the Detour.
They had a choice between Haystack, which involved searching for a red and white adornment inside large haystacks, or Woodstack, which required carrying heavy loads of wood with a wheelbarrow and a backpack.
Alyssa and Josiah chose the Haystack Detour and quickly found the adornment, maintaining their lead in The Amazing Race. They proceeded to the Sarantisi Church, where the Double U-Turn board awaited, but they opted not to U-Turn any team. At Snezha’s Farm, Alyssa completed the Roadblock, which involved milking a sheep and eating Bulgarian yogurt.
After finishing the task, Alyssa and Josiah raced to the Pit Stop at Elin Pelin and checked in first, winning a trip to Marrakesh, Morocco. Brett and Mark arrived next in second place, followed by Jonathan and Ana in third.
Han and Holden finished fourth, Melinda and Erika came in fifth, and Carson and Jack placed sixth. Nick and Mike, who struggled for over six hours during the Haystack Detour, were unable to recover and were eliminated from the race.
