Went to see the recording of the NPR show Wait Wait Don't Tell Me on June 10. What a great time! Of course, I elbowed my way to the front of every line. Hey, it's general admission seating... gotta do what ya gotta do to get the best seat in the house. No really, we were LITERALLY the first people in line and going through the door.
The panel included Charlie Price (not so funny) and Paula Poundstone (still dressing like she's in 1980 - big hair and big shoulder pads - but very funny). Don't recall who the third panelist was. The entire show was such fun. Carl Kassle is just as I pictured - an older gentleman who keeps things on track, basically. Peter Sagal is AWESOME ! He's a super quick wit.... funny, funny, funny - an intelligent funny. Excellent evening. I rate this 2 thumbs up - especially if you are already going to be in Chicago (downtown) on a Thursday evening. Just buy tickets well in advance - these shows sell out the day tickets go on sale.
