Best Of Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! featuring several favorite Not My Job guests and a some never-before-aired material
Notes
The order in which the Not My Job guest segments were included in this Best Of show also matches the chronological order in which the guests originally appeared as guests on the show. The three guests were also consecutive Not My Job guests, with a Best Of show airing between the shows that Bernie Parent and Aubrey Plaza were on, respectively.
