Does anyone know the name of the NPR quiz show about words? |
|
it's on Saturday afternoon in this neck of the woods...and I usually don't catch it but I'd love to look for a podcast if I could remember the name!
thanks.

1. Wait Wait Don't Tell Me? I'm not sure what you mean when you say it's about words |
|
but that is an NPR game show and they sometimes have limericks. Great show too.

I used to listen to two shows on WAMU in D.C. "My Word" and "My Music." They were both marvelous, produced by the BBC I think.

That one's the old BBC show isn't it, It's my favorite, It's so quick like right-to-the-words. We used to get 30 minutes a week on WETA in DC but they stopped it and so did WAMU. I almost forgot it :(

This is the one with a live studio audience, two panels, they do the bluffing game with word definitions. I usually catch parts of it Saturday morning.
