Certainly there are much worse shows on NPR? I'd hope that "...this is Marketplace from American Public Media..." or Diane Rehm would have their chewy gray matter devoured before Carl Kasell. I, for one, welcome our new sarcastic "Wait, Wait" overlords... What do you mean? Certainly there are much worse shows on NPR?

O'Rourke is a panelist. Then I can't change the station fast enough. I actually kind of like “Wait Wait”, except when P.J. O’Rourke is a panelist. Then I can’t change the station fast enough.

Romero's zombies were never picky about which parts they wanted to eat. If I have it right, zombies moaning 'brains' was actually pioneered in 'Return of the Living Dead', a punk/new wave-era satire written by the late, great Dan O'Bannon. It's also the source of one of the best lines of dialogue in any movie, ever. "Send more cops!" Absolutely correct, Oscar! Romero’s zombies were never picky about which parts they wanted to eat.
