Notes

The show was recorded remotely.

P.K. Subban initially chose "A" for his answer for the first Not My Job question, but Negin Farsad nudged him away from that answer and P.K. changed his answer to "C". For the second Not My Job question, P.K. initially chose "A" but changed his answer to "B" after some more nudging. Negin continued to nudge P.K. again and he switched his answer to "C". For the third Not My Job question, P.K. initially chose "B" but then Negin said "What if you minused B by one?". P.K. switched his answer to "A".

Peter Grosz answered his third Lightning Fill-in-the-Blank question with "methane" but Negin said that the correct answer was "greenhouse gasses". Methane is a potent greenhouse gas.
