What was the theme name for this week?

Otherwise, this show was very bland. And a redundant A in the BR? Wow...

I like one-gender shows. When will we have a brand new all-male episode that's NOT Military or Dads Week?

They also did that on Toss-Ups and maingame puzzles a lot.
	Finally!

I don't know if this indicates probability, but The last week (including road shows) I know of that was not occupation of gender specific with:

Three females is March 21, 2011, which itself was the first since April 6, 2007.
Three males? It may have happened between Seasons 13-21, but the latest one I could find was April 7, 1995 (unless the Season 13 Teen Week premiere also counts).

Well it is the coast. Just this December in Vancouver, I had two umbrellas get blown inside out on consecutive days, so I started wearing my thick winter jacket the next day. So accidentally letting go of an umbrella is not unheard of.
