It's a big week for John on the pod, as he gets to set his own personal record and we wonder if the J! producers have it out for Vancouverites, as Brendan Liaw's great run comes to a harrowing end. We also get a couple of great games, John gives us an update on his Jeopardy! test experience, and J! fans are fuming (sort of?) about Jim's preparation for his Friday game. Plus, we dive deep on the first-ever woman to grace a professional British stage, Margaret Hughes!
