Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me!
Sat & Sun: 10-11 a.m. on WABE 90.1
For a wacky, whip-smart, and irreverent approach to the week’s news and newsmakers, listen no further than Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me!, the oddly informative news quiz from NPR.
Peter Sagal leads what might be characterized as the news Olympics. Callers, panelists, and guests compete by answering questions about the week’s events, identifying impersonations, filling in the blanks at lightning speed, sniffing out fake news items, and deciphering limericks. Listeners vie for a chance to win the most coveted prize in radio: having any of our panelists record the outgoing message on their home answering machine.
