Fans of the National Public Radio’s (NPR) weekly podcast “Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me” can experience the fun first hand, as host Peter Sagal and company come to Atlanta on Thursday, February 25.
Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me Coming To Atlanta
The hour-long radio program produced by Chicago Public Radio and NPR has entertained listeners and audiences across the country since 1998. The show has and continues to successfully build a devoted fan base that absolutely delights over the show’s combination of witty banter, challenging trivia, and jovial commentary.
For those who aren’t familiar with the show or its format, listeners and audience members are able to participate by nominating themselves over e-mail or text message requests.
Producers of the show select several participants to compete in a variety of games that feature topical questions around subjects like pop culture, world news, U.S. politics, and other current events.
Unlike other modern game shows where contestants compete for life-altering prizes like a new mansion or a million dollars, “Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me” offers its winners the opportunity to have the show’s original judge and scorekeeper Carl Kasell record a greeting on their home answering machine or voice mail.
Adding to the show’s light, playful nature is the fact that contestants are allowed a degree of support when it comes to answering questions correctly, as the host will often:
- Allow participants to take multiple guesses
- Receive hints in case they initially answer incorrectly
- Offer them the ability to earn points without completely answering each question.
Over the show’s 18 year history, “Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me” has attracted a wide-range of celebrity guests that include Drew Carry, President Barack Obama, and Kim Kardashian.
