Listeners tried to stump the panel, and mostly failed
The premise was flattering to everyone: send in a question, and if the panel cannot answer it you win an encyclopaedia. The panel almost always could. What makes it durable is that the show is genuinely funny — Oscar Levant was on it for the insults, not the erudition — and that it treated a mass audience as capable of enjoying literary quotation at speed. American radio never made anything else quite like it, and nothing on either side of the Atlantic has since managed the same mixture of learning and malice.
