Notes
After Peter Sagal read all three choices for the third Not My Job question, the audience started yelling out the answer. Another instance of all three choices for a Not My Job question were correct. With that, all three of the Not My Job questions had "C" as the correct answer.
Peter sneezed while reading the background on the news story for Adam Felber's eighth Lightning Fill-in-the-Blank question.
