Not Much, You?

Now, I admit that Whad'Ya Know? isn't exactly Jeopardy!, but there's a quiz, and there are prizes.  So...I submit that we take note of this:

It's the Whad'ya Know box game!  I haven't seen it in a store yet, but was a phone-answering volunteer at my local NPR station yesterday and saw it--quite cool looking.

Is this the first Public Radio-related home game?  I can't think of another one... Carmen S didn't have a radio incarnation, did she?

 No, I don't believe there was a radio version of Carmen SanDiego.

There is a connection between NPR and Carmen SanDiego which is relevant.  WitWiCS host Greg Lee hosted a 90-minute weekday radio show for kids on NPR called "Kids America" in the mid-to-late 80s.

I actually was on that thing as a phone player from River Falls, WI -- MANY MANY YEARS AGO...  (Talking about 1990 or so)

Still remember the last question was on a certain visitor to a farm recent to the question -- they must've run long, because when I was talking out loud to self about Mikhail Gorbachev's recent visit, I was immediately declared correct for the 3 out of 5 win.

Won a pajama set and some silly Rhino CD or something like that...

Cool!  Thanks.  Helps in my gift-giving list for Christmas.

The closest thing to another Public Radio program's home game I can think of a book based on "Says You!" -- which I got to read while visiting fellow game show fans  in Cleveland (Mike Klauss among them).
