Wait! Wait! Don't Tell Me!'s target audience is people who are actually excited about voting for Hillary Clinton

and I've just told a better joke than the D-list comedians like Mo Rocca or Paula Poundstone they bring on that terrible show

Wait wait is one of the few passable shows on NPR. Its at least better than that loving trivia show with the acoustic guitar or ira glass's quirky horseshit

It's kind of weird that Paula Poundstone actually has a steady work.





Not because of the child abuse thing, but because she's awful.

Every episode of Wait Wait Don't Tell Me there's at least one instance where everyone just gets quiet and sits patiently while Paula Poundstone spends 30 seconds laboriously trying to put together a joke in the same manner as somebody passing a kidney stone.

I like PHC for the fiddle music. Keilor has his moments but he isnt the main draw for me.

Personally, I think it's problematic that a sitting Senator has a racial slur for a last name.

my parents always listened to these shows when I was growing up so it's weird now that the people on them are all old and dying. they've been my weekend background noise for decades. I respect the PHC crew for the amount of material they put out each year, even if the quality is pretty uneven.


I am the exact opposite. I didn't even really know what NPR was until that conservative kid with the mic drummed up a fake scandal. That was when I tuned in to hear what all the fuss was about. PHC ws really the only thing on it that I liked, and now it is asically over.

I guess since I went to both a PHC and Punch Brothers show in the last year this is a natural transition.

I thought my ideas were so clear. I wanted to make an honest post. No lies whatsoever.

I find PHC enjoyable and have found memories listening to it. RIP
