Did you know that a World War II British spy manual recommended sneaking into German brothels to put itching powder in German prophylactics? How about that Elvis offered to help President Nixon track down communists and drug abusers? All manner of valuable and worthless news-- brought to you in the witty, smarty-pants style of National Public Radio's popular weekly news quiz show-- lies between these pages, waiting for you to take it to the beach, on a road trip, to the bathroom so you can roar with friends or privately.
You really need to know this stuff.... You really do.

From the Back Cover
"What is it about National Public Radio's menu of shows that's so addictive? Among the best shows is Wait, Wait...Don't Tell Me!"--The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
"Wait, Wait...Don't Tell Me! is sassy, fast-paced, and irreverent. It is also one of National Public Radio's most popular programs.... A typical Wait, Wait...Don't Tell Me! episode is a mix of offbeat questions and answers that prompt giggles and guffaws."--Dayton Daily News
Press praise for Wait, Wait Road Shows
"...the seemingly staid NPR listeners went as wild as teens at a Britney Spears concert.... For fans of public radio news or its lighter side, that experience was magic indeed."--Boston Globe
"...the program's rabid fans clamor for Sagal, and especially Kasell, like rock stars."--Los Angeles Times
