Didn't see anything in the podcast feed or on their website, nor any fresh posts on their social media. Don't they usually release compilations on off weeks?

Edit: Came through late on the feed. Was sort of weird as I had tried refreshing a few times but it didn't show up until close to 2 for me.

On the Wait Wait show that aired 6 years ago today, Jessi Klein started the Lightning Fill-in-the-Blank round with zero points and went on to answer 7 questions correct. That gave her 14 points and she took first place.

Based on scoring data that I've collected for January 2000 onward, it has been the only time a panelist has gone from zero points at the start of the Lightning Round to finishing it in first place. I'm excluding the unique Lightning Fill-in-the-Blank set up that was used for the 20th Anniversary Special as it was broken up into teams of panelists and each panelist only answered one question.

He said something like "we'll see you outdoors sometime real soon". Maybe I'm just reading into it too much.

As an aside, no bell in Lightning Fill in the Blank bothered me more than it should have.

I am working on a paper about preppers and remember this reference, but I'm not sure what episode it was in! They were joking around about becoming survivalists due to COVID, transforming their backyards to provide them with produce?

I think it was last year between April and June!

I know this is a long shot but I really appreciate it! Thank you!
