"Listener Limerick Challenge"
A listener completes newsy limericks, read by Carl.
"Not My Job"
Senior European Correspondent Sylvia Poggioli turns her attention to less dire emergencies in the news, in: "You're coming to the
rescue!"
"Week in Review"
Senator Orrin Hatch has his own troubles with geography, good news for Russian pets, and no merit badge for Sir Elton John.
Round 3: "We'll Wait, You Tell Us" (Listener Segments)
"Listener Bluff"
Something goes high tech that really didn't NEED to go high tech.
"Who Is Carl This Time?"
Three more bon mots from the week's news, as
channelled by Carl.

The rest of the week's news that we can fit. Each panelist has one minute to fill in as many blanks as possible.
