Notes

When Carl Kasell introduced Charlie Pierce at the beginning of the show, Carl also mentioned that Captain Cheap Laughs was sitting on Charlie's left shoulder. Carl would mention Captain Cheap Laughs again before the Bluff the Listener segment.

The listener contestant for the first Who's Carl This Time? segment had previously met Adam Felber at Adam's bar mitzvah and the listener's dog had bitten Adam's face. Adam would continue to get razzed for that incident throughout the show.
