It may have started Sunday mornings at 9:30, but by May 1994, KCPQ aired "Pick Your Brain" at noon on Saturdays.
Also add WGTU 29 Traverse City MI to the list, Pick Your Brain aired at 7:30am Saturday mornings. Don't think anyone in the Tri-Cities/Yakima area picked it up, but I'm not completely sure.
Seemed to be a much forgotten game show with Marc Summers and that robot called 2-XL. Only lasted a year if that, compared to his more popular Double Dare on Nickelodeon and local syndication which went on for several years.

Nashville's affiliate was (correct me if I'm wrong) WUXP, and I think the time was Sunday mornings at 10:00 AM.

Yes I would, and let me take a wild guess:

Cincinnati, OH - WXIX Fox 19 7:30 AM Sat
Minneapolis, MN - WMSP Ind 9 10:00 AM Sat
Nashville, TN - WZTV Fox 17 7:00 AM Sun (I don't think RadioFreeCedarCity is right about the station)

So anabate123 let me know if I am right or wrong, and I can take more guesses if you know more stations that aired PYB.
 
I believe you meant to say...

Minneapolis, MN - KMSP Ind 9 10:00 AM Sat

And I'll even bet you'll want to know where it aired also in...

Houston, TX, right?
 
edward, maybe it was both stations...Sinclair will run the same show on multiple stations, so it could have been when Sinclair first LMA'd WUXP & WNAB with WZTV that I thought I saw it on WUXP. I did see the show once or twice (only time I could watch it was when I was home sick from church), but I guess I didn't pay attention to what station it was on...
