#57 for example, found a couple more but I can't find their PRs now..

Any way we could fix this?

Yes, you should change the way you add the quote without "

Before:
"Hey this is my quote" -- someone

After:
Hey this is my quote -- someone

Actually, the quotes themselves are fine, it's the em dash that is a problem.

Before:
"Hey this is my quote" someone

After:
"Hey this is my quote" -- someone

The em dash needs to be changed to double dashes --. You can use this ASCII validator.

I did some experimenting with what renders a table and what doesn't with the markdown preview, and it appears that the em dash isn't a problem, but double quotes alone are definitely the issue. (Note you're allowed to have a single double quote in the box, but as soon as you put an open and close double quote, the table breaks in the preview.)
