I’ve been a fan of Ira Glass and This American Life for many years, so it was a kick when Ira was kind enough to blurb Prisoner of Trebekistan.

A few weeks ago, Ira invited me to be a guest on a program themed around quiz shows, so we chatted for about an hour. Our interview will probably be edited down to about a minute or two of the final result, but still, for the curious, the show airs this weekend. You can find your local date, time, and station info here.

Incidentally, there’s also a Showtime TV version of TAL debuting on March 22nd. From what I’ve heard, they’ve done a pretty cool job of re-thinking the program as imaginative TV, not just sticking a camera in the studio a la Howard Stern. So that should be worth seeing.
