Notes

All three questions for the first Who's Carl This Time? segment were multiple choice questions where each panelist provided a possible answer, but only one had the correct answer. For the first question, the listener contestant chose Roxanne Roberts, but Sue Ellicott had the correct answer. For the second question, the listener chose Sue, but Roxanne had the correct answer. For the third question, the listener chose Roxanne, who had the correct answer.

The audio recording for the show that I received had a cut in the audio starting from Peter Sagal asking Adam Felber a question for the second Panel Question segment. The audio came back just before the start of the second Who's Carl This Time? segment.

At the start of Lightning Fill-in-the-Blank, Carl Kasell said, "For the first time that I could remember, we have a three-way tie for first place." The first time there was a three-way tie at the start of Lightning Fill-in-the-Blank was on the 1998-11-21 show.
