We beef with the pontiff and admire the Stanley Cup

we bring you three essential stories.

At the heart of each story, our questions. What really happened? What really mattered? What happens next? At NPR, we stand for your right to be curious and to follow the facts.

“Follow our first wherever you get your podcasts and start your day knowing what matters and why.”

From NPR and WB EZ Chicago, this is wait, wait, don't tell me the NPR news quiz. I'm the man they bring in when Bill Curtis gets busted for claiming Peter as a dependent. I'm Algo Slade, and here's your host at the Student Baker Theatre at the Fine Arts Building in Chicago, Illinois. Peter, say go, thank you. Algo, thanks everyone, thanks to all of you.

Hey, to see you, we do have a fine show for you today, later on, we're going to be talking for the first time

ever on our show to a professional escort. That's right, the man who was paid to escort the Stanley Cup. What did you think I meant? But first, it's your turn to come on and try to check me into the boards, give us a call. The number is 1 Tribulate, wait, wait, wait, that's 1, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9, 2, 4.

Let's welcome our first listener contestant, "Hi, you're on, wait, wait, don't tell me." "Hi, hi, who's this?" This is Jennifer, I live in Tampa, Florida, I am at ELCA Lutheran Pasteur. Yeah, so...

“I think, and I'm not sure about this, but the one person who was excited about Tampa was also the”

same person excited about you being a Lutheran. So maybe it's a coincidence, maybe they're just really happy today, we don't know. Well, Jennifer, welcome to the show. Let me introduce you to our panel this week first, a comedian, who'll be appearing at the white, rabbit cabaret in Indianapolis, Indiana on Thursday, April 23rd.

It's Adam Burke, hi, nice to meet you, Jennifer, hi. Next up, you can see here, April 23rd to the 26th, that rooster tea feathers in San Jose, California, and May 8th, that the Hollywood improv with the Netflix is a joke festival. It's Dolce Sloan. Hello! Hello!

It's me! Amen! And a comedian, you can see it, and a comedian, you can see it's a boba casino in San Jacinto, California, April 24th, and the comedy seller in Las Vegas, April 27th through May 3rd, it's a Lanzo Baudit. Hello! Hello! So Jennifer, Reverend, Jennifer, welcome to the show, you're going to play

"Who's Alzo this time?" Alzo Slade, filling in for Bill Curtis is going to read you three quotations in this week's news. If you can correctly identify or explain just two of them, you will win our prize, any voice from our show, you might choose for your voice, Melanie, ready to go? Okay, here is your first quote, Jennifer. It's from the president attacking a new rival this week.

He's very weak on crime. Apparently, President Trump was upset about the high-crime rate in Vatican City, as he took on "Who this week?" Hopefully, yeah, so the Pope, or to use his technical title, the Pope. Yes, the president got into a beef with the Pope about the war in Iran, but who knew that the Pope was weak on crime? That was surprising, and also raises the question,

do we want a tough on crime Pope? Like, he takes your confession, and instead of seven Hail Mary, he gives you the death penalty. And I gotta say, if President Trump thinks the Pope is weak on crime, wait till he finds out about the Buddha. If you wanted any proof that Donald Trump knows nothing about history,

he's starting to beef with Natalian guy from Chicago, exactly.

That never ends well. It doesn't. And it's how you guys from Chicago love beef.

That's true. I'm thinking about it though, but actually, we thought about it. It'd be cool if the Pope did fight crime, right? It'd be exciting. Like, coming to Netflix this summer, only murders in the conclave.

“I've already had murders in the conclave. That's true, yeah. That's how we can't get new Pope.”

Yeah. There's Trump thinking he's weak on crime, because that's how I was in the Vatican. There was a bunch of guys nailed to what happened to him. So he starts this beef with the Pope, and then he decides to throw some fuel in the fire, he posts a picture of himself as Jesus healing the sick. And when he was criticized for this, he insisted, and this is true. Oh, he's not supposed to be Jesus in the picture, don't you see?

He's a doctor. That's what he said, because whose doctor doesn't wear flowing white robes and treats you with glowing beams of light emanating from his hand. Well, that's the Republican health plan. There's right there, yeah. It's all you're going to get.

That advice was given to a patient who was in fact suffering a serious medical condition.

“It was part of a study showing you should not ask what for medical advice.”

I'm going to say AI, but perhaps I need a hint. No, you were right. AI, chat box, chatGPT. Everybody's doing it, but they shouldn't. New research says if you give AI a chat box, just one or two symptoms of something bothering you, they will fail to give you the right diagnosis 80% of the time. Either they will, as that one did, dismiss a serious disease, is nothing or say a minor complaint means you just have days to live. Robots are stealing other

robots job telling me I'm going to die is web MDs. Yes. The head of health and human services is wrong 90% of the time. That's true. So, and he certainly not a doctor. I mean, they're clearly trying to destroy us. They're trying to say, "It'll be fine." Have you guys ever done that? I know a

“lot of people actually use chatGPT and they're very happy with it. If you ever try to, I use it,”

what you do is for health advice. And what you get? Yeah. It told me that I was going through paraminopause. That's the way to moonswings. Now, of course, the way the chat box do is they just suck up all the information of the internet and these predictive technology to figure out what to say. So, this is true. A researcher in Sweden uploaded a fake paper. She wrote, describing a completely made up illness called Bixana Mania, including thanks to, and I quote,

researchers at Starfleet Academy and funding from the SideShow Bob Foundation. In the paper, and sure enough, within a year, chat bots were telling people all over the world that they had Bixana Mania. The amazing part, Bixana Mania is what the Trump Jesus doctor was curing. So, chatGPT is just a telephone psychic? They have no information. They have absolutely nothing, so it's just Ms. Cleo? No, no, because chatGPT does not cost 99 cents a minute.

Alright, here Jennifer is your last quote. Okay. Stuff always gets left behind. I didn't have to

pay for eggs for a hot minute. That was someone quoted in the Washington Post about why they like to eat the food people leave behind. Where? At our restaurant? Not at a restaurant. That would be creepy walking around, waiting people to leave a table, diving in before the bus boy can get there. Yeah, I've done it, but I'm not recommending it. Can you give me a hint? Yeah, well, apparently they are supposed to clean between guests, but sometimes they don't check the fridge.

Oh, in a hotel. Well, close in an Airbnb. More and more people are booking private vacation

“rentals, right? There's a growing debate, as that happens about whether or not you should eat the”

leftovers you find in the fridge. Some people think that's gross. Other people are like, "Oh, great! Free Boba Gnuch!" I think. Wouldn't it depend on, like it was just like, "Oh, there's a bag of oranges." Right. I can see somebody doing that as opposed to, "Oh, there's chicken wings the four of them got a bite out of it." Yeah. Actually, you know, who apparently eats a lot of it, are the owners of the Airbnb? That's part of a, I guess, a perk of being a landlord. One guy

complained to the post that his family wouldn't eat the leftovers he brought home from his rental, which he said recently included lobster mac and cheese. Come on, kids, it's just all cheese and shellfish. Other people has breathed on its prey. Now, there's certain food items you know,

you're always going to find an in vacation rental, like you old vegetable oil, an unusually

small amount of pancake mix. It's all useless. On the other hand, if you're going to make a recipe that calls for nothing but bay leaves, you are in business. Yes, odd spices that don't connect. It's like cinnamon. In majoram, I don't know what I'm supposed to make. Yeah. You can't put on a chicken. Kind of weird cinnamon chicken? You can, and then leave it for the Airbnb owner. That'll teach him and ruin his night. Also, also, how to Jennifer do in our quiz.

She got a perfect score. Three out of three. Congratulations, Robert. Yeah. Hallelujah. Thank you so much for playing. That was very fun. Thank you very much. That's what I am. Oh, that's what I am.

week's news. Alonzo, big news in cheese making. Thanks. I know it's exciting. Thanks to a change

“in the law in Switzerland, the makers of traditional Swiss cheese will now be able to add”

artificial what to their cheeses. Hole. Yes, holes. In recent years, holes have started disappearing from traditional Swiss cheese. Something I learned from my hole's Google alert. What turns out? I'm so mad. A hole can't disappear. It's the disappearance of the thing that the hole was replacing. I'm about to lose my mind. Let me attempt to explain. It turns out, in traditional Swiss cheese making, the holes in the

cheese are caused by tiny particles of hay from the milk barn that gets into the milk. And with modern automatic milking technology, those little particles don't occur. Right? So in Swiss cheese makers, want the holes back, but not from the guy who keeps showing up at the factory saying, "I'll do it." No question that. So they went to court in Switzerland and won the right to create their own holes artificially, and it still Swiss cheese. I love that at some point in this

saga, somebody pounded his fist in the table and said, "Get me the best damn cheese lawyer,

money can buy." I know that Switzerland basically sat out World War One and two, but this,

they finally take a stand. Yeah, yeah, we're gonna get it back. Coming up, the pressure is on, and this week's Bluffs to Listener Game, called One Triple Eight. Wait, wait, to play. We'll be back in a minute with more. Wait, wait, don't tell me. From NPR and WB EZ Chicago, this is, wait, wait, don't tell me. The NPR news quiz. I am Alzo Slade. We're playing this week with the Lanzo Bowden, Adam Burke, and they'll say Sloan, and here again is your host at the

Student Baker Theatre in Chicago, Illinois. Peter, say go. Thank you, everybody. Thank you, everybody. Right now, it is time for the wait, wait, don't tell me. Bluffs for Listener Game, called One Triple Eight. Wait, wait, to play our game on the air. Hi, you're on wait,

“wait, don't tell me. Hello. Hello. Hello. Hello. Hello, Hannah and Austin, Texas. What do you do there?”

I am a registered nurse, a turned private trafficking license in the flash therapist, and a black spula. So, if I were dying for a massage, you would definitely be the person. We go too. Exactly, exactly. Well, Hannah, welcome to the show. You're going to play our game when we're shooting, so choose from fiction. Also, what is Hannah's topic? You blew it. As the great philosopher, M&M said, you only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow.

This week's somebody had a chance to do something amazing, but it came up short. I plan to

let's be going to tell you about it. Pick the one who's telling the truth, and you'll win the wait, waiter of your choice, and your voice smell. You ready to play? I don't know. You are, okay. Well, then let's play. Let's start then with Alonzo Boat. Want to be influenced by Alan Lane, bought a computer from Brandon Torell on Facebook. He deleted the computer's memory a bunch of math and maps to edit videos of him smoking a cigar for his brand. He figured he'd get rich on

millions of views. Now he has videos of him crying at the idea of losing millions of dollars. The former owner of the computer, Brandon Torell, senior, spent a lifetime research in the Bermuda Triangle and had it figured out. He had researched wind and water currents, the times and temperatures of wind things disappeared. Torell believes that his research could have led to a fortune in sunk in treasure. So Torell Jr. sold the computer, thinking all of that,

it was backed up to eye cloud, but he forgot to pay Apple the $3 monthly fee for extra storage, so it all vanished the day to new owner erased it. Once he realized what had happened, he joined forces with the new owner. Lane smokes his cigars for views while Torell tries to rebuild his computer's memory so he can make him both rich. A man almost acquired the secret to untold riches at the bottom of the Bermuda Triangle, but erased it all, your next story of a

big chance comes from Dolce Sloan. We've all met up with friends after work events, still had our work stuff with us, like a laptop, a suitcase full of comedy merch, or a Fabrizier.

“That's what happened to Rosie Dawson, who was entrusted to show the Fabrizier egg and matching”

watch the potential buyers by her employer, the craft whiskey company. When she was unable to sell

and went to the pub. Enter Inzo Conte cello, a running-in-mail pick pocket, who noticed Dawson's $2,000 jeevon she handbagged on the floor, so he stole it, like he was supposed to.

“Because who put the $2,000 bag would a Fabrizier egg in it on the floor of a bar?”

Now, what does the petty thief do with a Fabrizier egg? Well, he's a regular person, who doesn't know what it is, so he traded the bag in everything in it, fuck okay.

He didn't find out the value of his theory was about $2.7 million.

Until he was in court, do you know how much cocaine? You can buy with $2.7 million. Now, I have no idea I'm a good Christian one, fuck. I'm sure it's a lie. A thief steals a purse, takes out the money in cards and throws away the Fabrizier egg inside, your last area of somebody coming up short comes from Adam Burke. It's considered one of the greatest missed opportunities in sports history.

“Boston Red Sox owner, Harry Frassey, sells bay booths to the New York Yankees in 1920”

for $100,000. Usher in an 84 year world series drought for the Sox, propelling the Yankees to huge success and making Ruth a baseball legend. It's also a pivotal moment in a new musical about the Bambino entitled simply "Babe exclamation point", which began production earlier this year in Boston. That was until Walt Gasman, the plays chief financial backer, dropped into rehearsals and witnessed some of the shows so-called hit numbers, such as "I'm not throwing away my shot,

but I am calling it." A whole new world series, and a whole whole whole with a murderer's rope. And decided he had a stinker on his hands. Enter Janus Keller, an aspiring entrepreneur from the Bronx, who upon hearing Gasman complain about the show at a function offered to buy it from him. All the things he hated, I adored, says Keller, like when the sick kid flies in and his hospital bed magic. And then a case of life imitating art, imitating life, Boston's loss has been New York's

gain, with the play becoming an instant camp classic off Broadway and quickly making its money back. I guess Boston won't win a Tony any time soon. Grouse to Gasman. All right. These years, three stories of a lost opportunity was it from Alonzo Boden,

“a guy who bought a computer and erased it before he realized on it was the secret to untold”

sunken treasure. From Dolce Sloan, a thief who grabbed a purse and threw it away, not realizing

he had just thrown away a 2.5 million dollar Faberje egg inside or from Adam Burke,

the story of Babe Ruth being sold from Boston to New York is recapitulated again in a musical about Babe Ruth being sold by Boston to New York, which of these is the real story of a lost opportunity. Wow. I have to take Dolce. This seems like the human thing to do. The human thing to do is who would think of the being of a purse that there's this average egg inside? All right, you chose Dolce's story. Well, we spoke to a reporter who covered

the wheel story. He takes her to the wheelchair bag and she realizes, oh my gosh, I thought I could speak stolen. That was the telegraphs of Lauren share I'm talking about the stolen slash not stolen Faberje egg and London graduations hand it you got it right your to point for Dolce you've won our prize. The voice of anyone you might choose for your voice mail. Thank you so much for playing with us today. Take care.

And now the game we call not my job. The national hockey league playoffs begin next week and the winning team won't get their own version of the Stanley Cup, the championship trophy because there is only one. Each member of the winning team though will get to have that one trophy for one day before it goes back on display and that means somebody has to escort it safely from place to place and that somebody is filled pictured a long time employee of the hockey hall of fame

and the official guardian of the one and only Stanley Cup and he joins us now. Phil

Richard, welcome to Wait wait don't tell me. So first to fact check, is that correct that

hockey is the only major sport that does not give the trophy to the team to keep. They get to hold it

amazing tradition Peter. They uh he wins it obviously in late June and they get it for 100 days

which means everybody on the team gets an opportunity to take it home. Right, not only the players, the coaches, the trainers, the equipment managers, staff, everyone gets time whether because it's a team event. Right and so why, how do you know how that tradition began? Was it like they didn't have the money to make a new trophy every year? Well, you know what, you look at that trophy. It's three feet high, it's 38 pounds, it's pure silver. I think it's beautiful enough. You only want one of them.

Nothing against the other sports traditions. They do a great job of it but none of it is like to Stanley Cup. Right, yeah, they didn't have the money. They didn't have the money. And this has been your job for a long time. You are the guy who brings the cup to the game to give it to the winning team and takes it and brings it to each member of that team. That's your job.

Yeah, and it's uh it's pretty amazing summer because I only hang out with winners. So it's pretty good.

Please, please tell me you have that on the teacher. How did you, how did you, how did you get that

“job, Phil? What skills did you bring to it? When he was little, he said, that's what I want to be when”

I also I don't take anyone ever says. They want to win it. They want to bring it home to Mom and Dad. I didn't plan on bringing it to someone else's mom and Dad. That didn't really work. You know what's amazing though? I took a sports administration course in college and one thing led to another and working at the hockey hall of fame. The game was evolving and it became more and more an international sport, more than just North Americans, players from all around

the world. So it began the effect of trying to how do we get this trophy out there to everybody? And yours truly put up his hand and said, why don't we take it around and let everyone celebrate it with it for a day? So I think we've been the 31 countries with it around the world now. Wait a minute, you just told me something I hadn't heard, which is that you came up with the idea of every member of the winning team getting it for one day? Well, all the one I did.

Okay. We know what it was. It was like we got to figure out a way to get our scottmows up. So. So you said, have an idea. Let's get out in the world. Let's let every player and other associate of the winning team have it for a day and then somebody said, well that's ridiculous. So maybe it would have to pick up the damn thing and fly around the world with it for 100 days. Where are we going to find that thing? And here's the image right here.

All right, over the year, I would part of a whole team that time I came up with that idea and

“I'm a little biased here, but I think it's one of the greatest traditions there is in sport”

because they get the chance to take it home to their hometown and celebrate with their family and friends. Okay. We on this show over the years have occasionally mentioned when it's made the news, some of the weirder things that the players especially have done with the cup during that precious day when it's in their possession. What is some of the weirdest things you've seen? Wow. We've been, uh, we've been water skiing on C-dos with it. We've been in sauna parties

in northern Finland. We've been mountain climbing and they're hockey mountains. Wait a minute, let's go back. A player says to you, all right, it's my, I'm assuming it's a player. They get a lot of head, blows to the head. He's, he says, I'm going to take the Stanley Cup. I'm going to tuck it under my arm. I'm going to get on me, my C-do, my jet ski type thing and I'm going to scoot out across the ocean or like holding it. And you say, make sure it's got a life jacket on.

Water safety is important. Okay. Has anyone ever offered you some cash to keep it a couple extra days? Oh, a lot, a lot of cash, guys. Yeah. As I, when these guys are well paid, so I imagine, like, you know, hey, I got some friends who haven't seen it yet, that has happened. It has. You've seen the shirt I have on. I'm not well paid. Yeah.

But you've resisted the temptation ever, never thinking of rise. Let me ask you a question. I know

that you played hockey. Well, you're Canadian. Obviously, you played hockey as a young man. You had aspirations. So, presumably, like all Canadian kids, you dreamed of the Stanley Cup yourself. Yeah. And given your job, have you ever imagined or planned what you would do, were you to get

“the cup to yourself as one of the players or team members do? What would you do?”

You think, if I had the chance to have it for a day? Yeah. I think for me, I would bring it back into

And why not? Was anyone else expecting long walk on the beach? Yeah.

“How about them? Well, Phil, Richard, it's a pleasure to have you here. And we have, in fact,”

invited you to play a game that we've come up with, that we are calling, let's go visit the in 8L. By which we mean national historic landmarks. We're going to ask you of course. We're going to ask you three questions about this list of interesting sites that make up the other NHL. And if you get too right, you'll win our prize for one of our listeners, the voice of any person on our show that might choose for their voicemail. Also, who is Phil

Richard of the Hockey Hall of Fame playing for it? Sam Chang of then Carlos, California. All right. So here's

your first question. There's a long list. You can find the Department of the Interior website

“of National Historic Landmarks around the country. And one of the great things about it is the”

variety. It's not just old houses and battlefields. The list also includes which of these. A, the birthplace of Seran Rapp. Be the nation's first Clairs store or see the Fresno California Municipal Sanitary Landfill. Wow. I'm going to be. You're going to go to the birthplace of Seran Rapp. Yes. I can imagine what the pilgrims would wear as they fit in. No, it's actually see the Fresno California Municipal Sanitary Landfill on the National Historic Landmark

that was the first modern landfill in the U.S. Here's your next question. One of the newest

landmarks designated in 2024 is the Kentucky birthplace of paleontology in North America. One of the first places where people started discovering fossils of ancient animals. What is it called? A, dinosaur hole, B, big bone, lick or see Jurassic Park. I can't go with B. You're going with big bone, lick. You're right. Hundreds of years ago, pioneers and others discovered big bones there that were from Macedon's and other prehistoric fauna and also living animals came there to

lick salt. So, big bone, lick. Alright, here's your last question. If you get this right, you win. So, be careful when you search for National Historic Landmarks online because a Google search using AI told us that what is on the list of National Historic Landmarks? A, Baby Land General Hospital, the fake hospital where cabbage patch installs are, quote, born, B, a tree, Nicholas Cage hit with his car in 1987 or C, a 40-foot-high floating head of Daniel Boone. Well, uh, I don't think it's

Nicholas Cage. I'm going to go with cabbage patch kids. You're right again, for, yeah. Baby Land General Hospital is a real place in Georgia where you can go and pretend to get a just born cabbage patch kid, but it is not as far as we can tell, actually on the list of National Historic Landmarks. It will be now. I guess so. Also, how did Phil do in our quiz? Phil, you get a weight, weight trophy that you can keep for yourself. You're a winner today. Yes, right, take it home.

It's just a tough thing. Phil pictured is the keeper of the Stanley Cup, which you can see teams by four. This year, in the NHL play, I've started an April 18th and now you know what's it's at stake. It will be exciting for you. Phil, Richard, thank you so much for joining us on Weight Weight Don't Tell Me. Guys, thanks for having me. Thank you Phil. Take care.

“In just a minute, learn of the secret to squeaky, clean romance in our listener-limber challenge,”

call, want to belate weight weight to join us in the air. We'll be back in a minute with more Weight Weight Don't Tell Me. For a man to be young. From NPR and WBEZ Chicago, this is Weight Weight Don't Tell Me. The NPR news quiz, I'm Alzo Slade. We're playing this week with the Lanzo Bowdoin, Don't Say Sloan and Adam Burke. And here again is your host at the Student Baker Theatre in Chicago, Illinois, Peter,

Fago. Thank you Alzo. In just a minute, for those of you who like your games easy and your

want to belate weight weight. That's one triple eight, nine, two, four, eight, nine, two, four. And now

“panel, it is time, once again, for the game, we call the Trump Dump. Some weeks news from the Trump”

Administration comes out faster than you can say 25th Amendment. And what we do is we just collect it, round it up in one place, and we ask you about it, rapid fire, two false style. Get yours right, you get a point. You all ready to plan? Yeah, here we go. Alanzo, two or false. In a sermon at the Pentagon, Pete Hegseth read a Bible verse, he said it was from the book of Mark when actually it was from the book of Ezekiel. It was from the book of Paul fiction.

It was, it was from the movie, Paul fiction. Don't say true or false. When addressing reporters

about the war, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent mistakenly referred to the Strait of Hormuz

as the Strait of Vermouth. True. Right. Adam, true or false. A new biography of RFK Jr. says he once cut off a dead raccoons penis on a family vacation to quote, "study it." Later. True. That is true. Alanzo, according to the biography, RFK later wrote in his journal quote, "I was standing there cutting the penis out of a road killed raccoon thinking about how weird some of my family members have turned out to be." I'm going to go true. You're right again,

don't say to her false Donald Trump was criticized for skipping around negotiations to watch a UFC fight with vanilla ice. True. That is true. And Adam, true or false. After the fight,

Donald Trump told the winner, "You're the toughest fighter I've ever seen. I bet you could

beat around all by yourself." True. No, that is false. He said to the fighter quote, "You could be a model. You look so good. You're too good looking to be a fighter. You're some fighter. You're a beautiful guy." You know the disembodied raccoon penis? Yes, I do.

“That's what we're supposed to take instead of Tylenol. Probably.”

And that's it for this week's Trump dump. We'll be back with another edition before you know it and before you want it. Now, panel some questions about the week's news for you. Adam, two pilots were scolded this week after Air Traffic Controlers in National Airport in DC heard what coming over the radio from the cockpit. It wouldn't buy any chance. Be the sound of like a cat meowing. Yes indeed. Meowing and barking.

Air Traffic Control in DC heard meowing and barking coming from an active cockpit out there on the tarmac. But there were no pets on the airplane. It was the pilots doing the meowing and barking. Air Traffic told them they needed to be more professional. And this is true in reaction the pilots barked and meowed even more. And things got even worse when the pilots got the zoomies. That's a small space. This is recorded. And so the air traffic control was then heard telling the

pilots. And this is true. This is why you still fly a regional jet. Danger air traffic control. Wow, that is shade. That is cold. That is cold. That's the American Eagle. They could have tagged it with force spirit airliner. That's true. When the plane only got 30 seats and we know what? When they said that the pilot start growling. Anyway, for those interested in this, the pilots in the story are now

available for adoption at your local DC.

“Coming up, it's lightning filming the plane. But first it's the game where you have to listen”

for the ride. If you'd like to play on air, call or leave a message. It won't trip away. Wait, wait. That's 1 8 8 8 9 2 4 8 9 2 4. You can see it's most weeks right here. It's a due to bigger theater in downtown Chicago. Or it catches in the road in Austin, Texas at Bass Concert Hall in the 4th of June. And if you like our show, but wish you was actually sort of a different show, you can check out our comedy, grab, bag stand up show at the bellhouse in Brooklyn on April 24.

Josh Gundam, then we'll be hosting. He'll be joined by our very own Peter Gross and some exciting special guests for tickets and information to all our live events. Go to NPR presents.org. Hi, we're away. Don't tell me. All right. Hi, who's this? This is Tracy Clark Johnson. Hello, Tracy Clark Johnson. How are you? Where are you calling from? I am calling from Richmond Hill, Georgia. Wow. Where is Richmond Hill? So Richmond Hill is about 30 minutes from Savannah,

Georgia, and I was there at the Johnny Mercer Theatre recently, and saw you guys a lot. Yeah, that's great. I'm so glad we were there. Just recently had a great time.

related lyrics with the last word of phrase missing from each. If you can fill in that last

“word of phrase correctly, two of the lyrics will be a winner. Are you ready to play? I am ready”

to play. Let's do it. Here's your first lemric. On our dates, we get down on all fours. That's because

we are scrubbing the floors. We do laundry and shop, clean the windows, and mop. We get frisky by doing our chores. Yes, chores. The hot new trend in dating. It's shore mats. Once that of going out, you stay home and do, quote, regular housework or daily life chores. Sounds boring. Okay, but have you ever felt the electricity of folding a fitted sheet with somebody new?
