Talking about other callbacks?

When I'm at a callback, and a partner/associate interviewing me asks about where I am in the interview process, etc., should I be talking about other screeners/general OCI, should I name other firms I have CB's with, or what?

"I'm currently on a callback talking to an interviewer who has run out of questions."

It's not something you should aim to bring up on your own, but it's fine to discuss if they ask, especially if it's strategic.
Ex: If you're interviewing for corporate in NYC with V10ish firms, and they ask about who else you're interviewing with / where else you're considering, mentioning that you're seriously considering offers from (other V10 firms) could provide very fruitful discussion topics.
I had partners from one firm give me good info about other firms, especially ones they do a lot of business with (there are two big firms on every big deal and most litigation...).
