Bit weird that they will play seasons put of order due to the writers strike (they actually filmed this season this year), the season that will follow this one was filmed end of 2022.

@foxyrover

What difference would that make on the show? Why is it out of order?

It was explained by @dominator a couple of weeks ago.

That is the speculation - that the 35th filmed season (a Covid season with charter flights (like S33 & S34), filmed in late 2022 with travel mostly focused on South America) was ready before CBS requested TAR to have 90-minute episodes (to fill out content for the strike, as well as to have a Reality Game Show Wednesday schedule with Survivor US - A schedule decision that I would not be surprised to see remain permanent from now on - with the sole expectation of the 35th filmed season).
