CBC's "Test the Nation"

Last night, on live TV, I made my national TV debut as a contestant on the CBC's hugely popular Test the Nation quiz show. At the mid-way point of 60 questions, I was in the top 5 (of 216 contestants). It was a huge thrill to be a part of such a production and it reminded me of a previous game show experience when I lived in LA and participated in an episode of Win Ben Stein's Money where I was leading through two rounds but just missed making it to the head-to-head round with the host, Ben Stein. Here are my results from Win Ben Stein's Money:

As soon as I have the results from my appearance on Test The Nation, I'll post them.
