Are you a real know-it-all? Do you annoy your family by shouting the answers while watching Jeopardy?

Do you drive people crazy when you start a sentence with, well, actually. Well, guess what? You can go fact yourself.

Hi, everyone. Welcome to Go Fact Yourself, the show where we take the smartest people we know and make them look dumb.

And then smart again. I'm Helen Hong. And now socially distancing from our homes in Los Angeles. Here's our moderator,

Jakeith Van Stratton. Thank you, Helen. Very nice to see you again. How are you?

Nice to see you. I am, uh, it's a little, it's been schfittsie. It's a little shifty. It's been

really hot. It's been heat wavy. Yes. Well, Helen, I have a little bit of news that I'm excited to share. I actually have a new job.

It is for one week.

I have a one week job writing on a game show.

But here's the fun part.

See if you can guess which specific part of the TV game show I have been hired to write.

I'm going to blindly guess the part.

You have to write the things before people go to bathroom break?

Before people go to bathroom break.

It's a very reasonable guess, but no, no, I'm not writing the questions.

I'm not writing the bathroom break stuff.

This is a show where people say an answer, then they say, you know, some bonus content,

some frill, as they call it in the biz.

And then I get to write the part where the host says something in response to that

because so far all they have the host saying is thank you or that's interesting. So I get to

write that part. And I did the math today. There are approximately 800 instances where this

happens. And I have to write 800 different ways of saying thank you or that's interesting.
