- Even better with Andy Richter!
As an original fan since’98, I’m listening to Andy Richter fill in for Bill on 3/16/24 and, no offense, but I want Andy to stay! Peter is fabulous with Andy’s energy— not having to deal with the bloated arrogance of ‘Bill’s character’ makes for a lighter, fresher, more entertaining show. Thanks WWDTM, thanks Peter, thanks Andy!

Have listened for years and look forward to it every week…don’t think I’ve missed any. Have a great Paula story…on the other hand , Maeve’s no-nothing comedy just isn’t funny. :-(

Definitely one of my favorite game shows of all time! I have to verify some of the stories, because they sound almost too ridiculous to be true, but they are almost always depressingly real. The host and guests do a fantastic job of making the weekly news a little bit less scary, and a lot funnier!
