Notes

Another instance of Mo Rocca using the topic of dingoes in Australia being used in a Bluff the Listener story; but, this time, there is a twist!

The audience shouted out "B" while Stacey Abrams was trying to come up with an answer for the first Not My Job question and shouted out even louder when she first chose "A". She changed her answer to "B", which was correct. For the second Not My Job question, Peter Sagal gave her a strong hint of which answer was correct.

During the second panel round, Roxanne Roberts stole Mo Rocca's question. Mo would then steal Roxanne's question.

Another instance of all three panelists starting the Lightning Fill In The Blank segment in a three-way tie.
