Jordy McNamara & Jahna Goldman

Answer: B (Iditarod Sled Dog Race)


$30,000: Of the 12 stars on tbeir flag, who says the number "has nothing to do with" the number of members, "though the circle is a symbol of unity"?
A - NATO
B - United Nations
C - United Arab Emirates
D - European Union

Jordy and Jahna don't know what the flags of any of these choices look like so they opt for the 50:50.

"50:50 results": A & D

Jordy's gut says it's

D
and he's fairly confident. They decide to go for it.
Spoiler
Answer: D (European Union)

Jahna was chosen as the person who would make the final answer decision because Jordy tends to answer too quickly and they didn't want to lock in an answer too soon.

$50,000: Known for being watched by insomniacs, ironically, which of the following TV hosts is a narcoleptic?
A - Jimmy Fallon
B - Conan O'Brien
C - Jimmy Kimmel
D - James Corden

Jahna knows what insomnia and narcolepsy are but that isn't any help. Jordy says if there was a movie about his life he would want James Corden to play him. They believe that
Spoiler
James Corden's show is on the latest of them all and it would make sense for that to be the answer
. Jordy wants to go for it; he's confident enough not to want to walk away; they discuss it and Jahna says if they had no idea they would walk, but they think they know. So they go for it.
Spoiler
Answer: C (Jimmy Kimmel)
Jordy & Jahna win $5,000.

20K: Iditarod sledders & their pups stop to sleep & eat. I would have guessed them anyway, but Q is misleading.

50K: That male contestant thought latest time slot host meant something made me sad. Blow as many lifelines as I need on this, & maybe still walk.

I don't watch any of these shows and wouldn't have any idea; I have all my lifelines and I'll use them, starting with ATA.
