Who's Bill This TIme?; Panel Questions; Bluff the Listener about the phrase "Daddio" in the news this week; Not My Job about spam e-mails; Panel Questions; Listener Limerick Challenge; Lightning Fill In The Blank; Panelist Predicitons: what will be the next great hoax to be revealed?
Another instance where all three of the correct answers for the Not My Job questions were "C".
Shane O'Neill initially answered his fifth Lightning Fill In The Blank question with "Six Flags" but changed his answer to "Disney" as Peter Sagal was saying his first answer was not correct. Shane received points for his changed answer.
When Peter asked Bill Kurtis if Eugene Cordero did enough to win, Bill simply said no without providing the number of questions Eugene answered correctly and did not provide Eugene's total score. In the edited version of the show only included seven out of the eight questions that Eugene would have been asked for Lightning Fill In The Blank. If Eugene answered the omitted question correct, he would have tied Negin Farsad with 13 points and Bill would have mentioned that. Based on that, the scoring data entered for Eugene reflects that he only answered four correct for a total of 11 points.
