I'm Dr. Chey Rhymfest-Smith, and even though I'm a doctor, I still can't cure my

rhymes disease.

And here's your host at the Studebaker Theater in the Fine Arts Building in Chicago, Illinois, Peter Sagle.

Thank you, everybody.

Thank you so much.

We have a great show for you today.

Later on, we're going to be joined by actor and model and internet influencer Julia Fox,

but first, we are so glad to have Rhymefest back with us.

Now, Rinefest, after the last time you joined us, we got a lot of emails, praising us, of course,

for having the wisdom to have you, but also regarding your pronunciation of the word Illinois. Yes. Which I just said in the traditional passion. Yes. You, of course, are a lifelong Chicagoan, so we would like to give you an opportunity to respond to all those people. Well, look, brother, I'm hip-hop. You guys invited a rapper on, so I'm always going to bring the Illinois's from Illinois. I just think people didn't get that. All right. Well, we are eager to find out how you pronounce where you are from. So give us a call. The number is 1-3-8-8-8-Wa-Wait. That's 1-88-8-8-8-24. Let's welcome our first listener-contestant. Hi, wait, wait, wait, don't tell me. Giday, Pete. My name's Greg. I was born and bred in Brisbane, Australia, but I now call

Northfield, Vermont home, primarily because of my beautiful 11-year-old daughter, Margot. So a shout

out to Margo, please. Wow. Okay. How does an Australian from Brisbane end up in Northfield, Vermont?

It's a very simple word, a woman. Oh, yes. It's happened to so many of us. Well...

Yes, exactly. Greg, welcome to our show. Let me introduce you to our panel this week. First up, he's the comedian whose new special Un-American will be available on Amazon and Apple on November 25th. It's Adam Burke. Hi, hello. Good-Aid. Hey, good-Aid. Next, he's the comedian. You can see at the Punchline Comedy Club at Atlanta, November 7th through the 9th and at the Arlington Draft House in Arlington, Virginia, November 28th and the 29th. It's Alonzo

Bowden. Hello, Greg. How you doing? Good day, Alonzo. And he's a comedian. He'll be performing at the

Parkway Theater in Minneapolis in November 23rd, and at the Crocodile in Seattle on December 28th.

It's Josh Gondelman. Good night. Welcome to the show, Greg. You are going to play whose Rimefest this time, Rhymefest filling in for Bill Curtis, is going to read you three quotations from this week's news. If you can correctly identify or explain two of them, you will win our prize. Any voice from our show you might choose for your voicemail. Are you ready to play?

I'm ready to play. Then let's do it. Here's your first quote. My son loves Halloween, the pumpkins, the ghosts, but this house had dismembered bodies.
