Wait Wait Don't Tell Me

S

I would like to see how many fans of the WBEZ/NPR news quiz Wait Wait Don't Tell Me are on these boards. And I am sure you all aware that they mainly tape in Chicago, but they at least once a month tape a show outside Chicago and in another state, which host Peter Sagal will announce them on the air, but you can always go to their page at http://www.npr.org and click on see the show where it will get ou to hear their tapings that are scheduled that are not in Chicago and if you can ever can you can find out how to even get tickets in Chicago. But that would be something that you would want to get early enough as shows are always sold out in their normal Chicago home, that in less they have a rare free taping scheduled at Jay Pritzker Pavilion in Millennium Park. And like I said it is rare that they tape a show there, with their last taping being there last summer in the year of 2015, with who knows when the next time they will tape. But if you love the show I do highly recommend to you to try to see it live if you can either in Chicago or if it ever hits near you.
 
I try to listen a couple of times a month. Each time is always hilarious...especially if Paula Poundstone or Tom Bodett is on the panel. They both have really funny jokes. Peter Sagal does some great puns at times as well, and most weeks the show goes smoothly, albeit with a lot of laughter.
"Wait Wait" has never been to Eastern Washington, as far as I know. They were at the Paramount Theater in Seattle one week last year, and I'm sure they were in Seattle at least once in the Carl Kassell days too.
 
I ma going to make a mention of this, but you should try to listen to this week's episode as I see both Paula Poundstone and Tom Bodett along with Mo Rocco are on this week's show. I know that that have been in Seattle with Bill Kurtis, and I also do seem to remember them going to Seattle with Carl Kassel as well. But I am not sure if Seattle is the farthest they are willing to go in the state of Washington, but it seems to me that they like to hit the main city in each state. But you can get in contact with the show and ask them if they ever could ever hit Eastern Washington.
