Quiz Kids

As Ken mentioned at the end of the My Favorite Letter Show, this week's show will feature a grand Seven Second Delay Trivia Game. I'll be in studio to serve as your Quiz Master, and we'll be looking to determine the biggest SSD fan of all time. You're all encouraged to call in and compete, but I'll also need the blog's help preparing questions. Listeners will get on-air credit for their help, and will still be encouraged to compete (I just won't ask you your own questions).

As an example, Ken suggested questions about things like the name of Andy's first wife. (Easy, right?) I think lots of personal history questions like this would be great. I'd also like to see some episode-specific questions, call screener questions, and theme music questions. Email me as many questions as you can prepare, and I'll bring them all to the show on Wednesday. Special thanks to listener Joe and blogger Austin for already helping out.

On a personal note, I am excited about returning to the WFMU studios after my little visit for the Wheel of Fate Marathon Show. During that visit, it was so strange watching the voices of Ken and Andy coming out the faces of Ken and Andy. Can you imagine? The guys were just how you'd picture them-- Ken was extraordinarily kind to everyone around him, and Andy carried a little plastic bag with a copy of the New York Post and a box of animal crackers hanging out. Call Screener Jeff was great as well, and he took a couple pictures of me grimacing with excitement. I'm excited to go back and represent the blog this week with our awesome trivia questions.

June 20, 2007: Green Hangman

On tonight's show, Ken and Andy challenged their green listeners to a game of hangman. This is apparently because we only have one planet... or something. Instead of hanging some poor, helpless stick figure, the punishment for not solving Andy's hangman puzzle was listening to the song "Steamroller" by James "I'm a wiccan" Taylor.

Next week: The Seven Second Delay Trivia Game!

Homework Helper from April 1995

I've never actually been in a crowded theater. I only go to see my movies.

Foreplay Topics
Where were you when you heard about Selena? New Jersey is on fire. But, don't stop drop and roll, there is a flesh eating disease in the soil.

Fatal Flaw
Would you want Andy to help your kid with their homework?

7sd as Nostradamus
Andy bemoans that he is distracted because he is trying to save his marriage. "It would be [a] happier [anniversary], if my life wasn't a living hell."


Ken and Andy provide the public service of helping with callers' homework. Regretfully, there is only C- or higher guarantee. Helping a 4th grader write a sentence with only words that begin with S, Andy suggests: "Seventy second street starts somewhere south of here."

This episode is filled with old school all-star callers. WFMU personalities, Arnon, Bronwyn, and Terri T drop in, as does Andy's son, Josh.

Special Note
This is one of those Andy/God Deal episode. Feel free to listen. Andy has arranged it so that you will get your hour back. Has anyone seen this in writing? I need to know if there's anything in the fine print about multiple listenings.
