What happens during the commercials?

It hasn’t aired yet, and the producers and the contract I signed have scared me enough, so I can’t quite say what I was on. But, I will say about discussing strategy during commercial breaks: a specific part of the contract made it clear that individuals associated with the show may discuss strategy and, if so, we couldn’t use that as an excuse as to why we didn’t win. (So, if someone said “it may be best to do X,” and then we did X and we lost, we couldn’t complain.) So, they built on the discussing strategy piece into the contract itself. I’ll gladly tell all after the episode airs :)
TLEberle:
Good enough.
Loogaroo:
For Funny You Should Ask, they essentially go straight into the next act, since they like to keep the audience energy up coming back from the break.
SuperMatch93:
Wait Wait Don't Tell Me goes right into the next segment; they usually re-record a couple things after the show is done, which takes about 5 minutes.
Joe Mello:
Leaving the stage is probably not the right phrase but IIRC Pat and Vanna head out of sight to get prepped for the next round(s).
Having a "think out loud at your own risk" thing in the agreement is rather novel, I think.
