Wait, Wait… We're Inside Your Smart Speaker!

Have you always wanted to call into Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!, but didn't want to embarrass yourself or your family? Well, now you can play along with Peter and Bill without risk to your reputation thanks to NPR's new Wait Wait Quiz for smart speakers.
NPR's comedy news quiz show is now available as a fully interactive game for your Alexa or Google Assistant device. Hosted by Peter Sagal and Bill Kurtis, you will get the chance to answer fill-in-the-blank questions from the week's news. It's just like the podcast or radio show, but Peter and Bill can hear and respond when you shout at them.
Alexa, open Wait Wait Quiz; Hey Google, talk to Wait Wait Quiz
Simply say to your device, "Alexa, Open Wait Wait Quiz," or "Ok Google, talk to the Wait Wait Quiz," and you're playing. Super easy. Play every week for a chance to win the Wait Wait voice of your choice on your voicemail and hear your name on the air!*
The Wait Wait Quiz will update weekly and takes roughly 5 minutes to play alone or with friends. Prove your knowledge of the week's news and give Peter and Bill a piece of your mind.  Try it out today — you can't lose! Well, technically you can.

*PRIZE DETAILS: Answer 5 out of 6 questions correctly to be entered into a monthly drawing when we'll randomly select four winners. Those winners will hear their name as the listener contestant on Wait Wait... Don’t Tell Me's broadcast during the Not My Job segment. The Not My Job guest will play on their behalf. If the guest wins, they win! Winners can have anyone from our show record a personal message for you or a loved one.
