Seattle-Centric Says You Airs Tonight

At the turn of the year, trivia-and-wordplay show Says You taped four shows at our own Town Hall. Two of those have already aired on KUOW; if our calculations are correct, tonight's show should be the third show taped, a special Seattle-focused edition. Many of the questions have a Seattle theme (including one that'll make EIC-emeritus Seth Kolloen pretty jazzed), and many of the people who submitted the questions were in the audience. This includes us—we contributed one of the words used in their regular bluffing game. We've long had a love-annoyance relationship with the show, which is often clever, sometimes in a typically NPR-ish kind of way, and sometimes indulges in word origin urban legends and zombie rules of grammar. It reminds us a little of hanging out at our parents' cocktail parties, during parlor games, if our parents had been Robert Benchley and Dorothy Parker. If you don't already know what "fumetti" means, tune in tonight at 6:00 on KUOW and see if you can guess.
