Hey, it's Peter. Before we start today's show, I want to thank you all. But just so you

know, it's one of those thank yous that leads up to an ask. But the thank you is totally

sincere. Doing this show has been an amazing gift for those of us who get to do it. Me,

Bill, the panelists, the producers, the engineers, everybody, not just because it gives us something

to do other than rewatch the office again, but because it makes us feel like we are still

in the room with you, like we used to be. We'd put you all on the Zoom call. We used to

tape the show, but the windows get too tiny with that many people. So thanks for being there

for us still. And also, well, here is the ask. Thank you for your support of your public radio

station. We and they literally couldn't do any of this without you. So if you feel just

as grateful for us as we do for you, go to donate.npr.org slash wait and your money will go to

your local station. By the way, that episode with Booz Crews, the Michael Aranges, because it's

cheap during the winter, totally hilarious.

From NPR and WB Easy Chicago, this is Wait, wait, don't tell me the NPR news quiz. Bring

the beef. You're about to get a big plate of spaghetti billonies. I'm Bill Curtis and

here is your host, a man who Peter Segal is hoping does a terrible job.

Thanks, Joe, Bernie. Thank you, Bill. I am, Joe, Bernie. And I'm so excited to be back

guest hosting for a second week in a row. As you know, Peter and his wife had a baby

boy last week. So he's taken a little time off to be with them. Who knew that raising

a kid took more than a week? While Peter is knee deep and diapers, why don't you give

us a call and play our games? The number is 1 888. Wait, wait, that's 1 888 924 8924.

Now it's time to welcome our first listener contestant. Hi, you're on Wait, wait, don't

tell me. Hi, my name is Jackie Koeh. I'm calling from Orman Beach, Florida. Hello, Jackie
