Hey everyone, Bill Curtis here. If you're like me and you love the panelists on Weight

Weight Don't Tell Me, then check out the Weight Weight Stand Up Tour. This fall we're doing two

shows in Michigan, October 21st at Ann Arbor, and the 22nd in Kalamazoo. Both shows feature

some of our funniest comedians. Alonzo Bowden is those along with Mazjo Brunny, Helen

Huang and Nguyen Farstad. See them live, uncensored and uninterrupted by Peter Segal. Four tickets

and information go to nprpresents.org.

From NPR and WBEC Chicago, this is Weight Weight Don't Tell Me, the NPR news quiz.

Enough of the beltway, step inside the billway. I'm Bill Curtis, and here is your host at the

Wolftrap National Park for the performing arts in the end of Virginia. Peter Segal.

Thank you, Bill. Thank you everybody. Oh my gosh. Oh, you wore my heart. It is great to finally

be back with you as you may know. I took off the entire month of July from this show to spend

quality time with my family having COVID together. It was actually kind of great to be locked inside

the house for a month with my wife and my toddler son. Just getting to watch him grow before my eyes,

for example, I got to hear him say his first words. Daddy, when are you going back to work?

Later on, we're going to be talking to the woman who for 30 years has served as Congresswoman

for Washington, DC, Eleanor Holmes, Northland. She will be with us. The first we want to hear you

honorably represent your place of residence. Give us a call. The number is one,

triple eight. Wait, wait, that's one, 888-924-892-4. Let's welcome our first listener contest.

And hi, you're on Weight Weight Don't Tell Me. Hi, this is Jackson Hawkins from Jamestown,

Rhode Island. Jackson Hawkins, sir? That's me. Yeah, you sound very 19th century. I like it.

Oh, thank you. What do you do there in Jamestown, Rhode Island? I just graduated college in February

and next week I'm starting an internship with the Mount Washington Observatory up in New Hampshire.
