Phil Keoghan Spills Secrets Behind Season 20 Of 'The Amazing Race'

STUDIO CITY (CBS)— "The Amazing Race" is back! Host Phil Keoghan stopped by KCAL9 Thursday to spill secrets about the 20th season of hit CBS show.

This season, the teams will travel across five continents, 22 cities and close to 40,000 miles, visiting Paraguay and Azerbaijan for the first time in the history of "The Amazing Race."

This season's Racers will endure one of the most competitive courses ever, as they find themselves skydiving in Argentina, training with the Masai warriors in Tanzania, racing through Africa's "Garden of Eden," putting their taste buds to the test with one of Italy's most popular cuisines and searching for King Ludwig's quarters in the German castle that served as the inspiration for the castle in "Sleeping Beauty."

This season's cast includes a pair of border patrol agents, twins, dating divorcees, last year's winner of "Big Brother," Rachel Reilly, and her fiancé and fellow Houseguest, Brendon Villegas.

The new season of the CBS reality series kicks off Sunday, Feb. 19 at 8 p.m.
