Summary

Each week, nearly 2 million radio listeners test their knowledge against some of the best and the brightest in the news and entertainment world. They try to figure out "Who's Carl This Time?" They race against the clock on "Lightning Fill in the Blank." On the "Not My Job!" segment of the show, they listen to a celebrity guest answer questions on a topic totally outside his or her area of expertise. Panelists include author and humorist Roy Blount Jr., author and radio anomaly Tom Bodett, syndicated advice columnist Amy Dickinson ("Ask Amy"), journalist P.J. O'Rourke, Washington Post columnist Roxanne Roberts, Boston Globe writer Charlie Pierce, comedian Paula Poundstone, and television personality Mo Rocca
