From NPR at WBEZ Chicago, this is Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me, the NPR News Quiz. I've got the voice of an angel and the body of a hot angel. I'm Bill Curtis, and here is your host at the Studebaker Theater at the Fine Arts Building in Chicago, the Roy Peter Sago.
Thank you, Bill. Thank you, everybody. Thank you so much.
We have got such a great show for you today. Later on, we're going to be talking to Lauren Graham, star of the legendary TV show, The Gilmore Girls, a show so beloved that 25 years after it debuted, people still rewatch it in times of extreme stress, just for its calming, cheering effect. So today, we are not sure if we should interview her or just have her reenact season one.
But first, we want to be soothed and reassured by the sound of your voice. So give us a call. The number is 1-888-WAIT-WAIT. That's 1-888-924-8924. Let's welcome our first listener contestant. Hi, you are on Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me.

Right, right. I have friends who live on Martha's Vineyard and I know what it's like. It's like the summer is just filled with all these rich people, but in the winter they all leave. And I assume you just walk around breaking into their houses and pretending you're wealthy.
We try to avoid doing that, but it is a little bit tempting.
