Nice episode
Although I haven't heard of anyone injecting disinfectant, I have seen reports of people going to the hospital for drinking disinfectant. Not everyone who did it survived. Go Trump! Not!
Great content. I'd really love to transcribe your podcasts. People who are deaf, hard-of-hearing, non-native speakers, or suffer from auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder may have trouble following a fast conversation. Transcription provides an avenue for them to absorb everything you are putting out. My email is vickies2cents@gmail.com. Thank you.
Love Tom Hanks 👏👏
Hanks is amazing 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
dulcé is hillarious!
I always enjoy wait wait...
These guests that do multiple npr shows close together is really making my brain work to figure out if I've listened to this one already or not 😅😅
Decent
I did look up the wrinkle faced bat, and it looked like it ran into one too many walls! It walks a fine line between cute and the thing nightmares are made of! lol
Maybe I've been too long in lockdown, but funniest WWDTM I've heard! Who knew a bat expert guest could be so funny?! Plus, the panel and all the callers riffed so we'll...was laughing out loud.
i love that you are having so much fun!
listening to this after the protests in Minnesota....really doesn't age the limerick listener well....
what kind of cologne
Kelly Clarkson's child River is a girl... Remington is her son.
What a great entertaining show, the host and the guests were hilarious and i loved Tom Hanks part i really like his sense of humor
This show gives me great comfort.
Please look after yourselves guys, this goes out to the entire team. Sending ALL the positive vibes. (meme image not available)
appreciate the show thanks for continuing. really liked the family playing your lymiric game you should do that more often. thanks to everyone on your show!
Thank you for carrying on in the face of great adversity. Never have I been as impressed by the talents of you artists as I was listening to Wait Wait today. Your improv, sans audience, was not only brave, but brilliant. Bravo, to each of you. it meant so very much to me, in my self-imposed isolation, to hear your voices. Again, I thank you for showing up!
