Wait, Wait...

On this week’s ‘Not My Job’ segment of the NPR quiz show Wait, Wait…Don’t Tell Me!, the guest contestant is actor Brian Tyree Henry, who has a trifecta, receiving an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor as ‘Paper Boy’ in the series Atlanta, an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor in the drama Causeway, and also a Tony nomination as Best Featured Actor in a play for Lobby Hero. His conversation with guest host Karen Chee – a comedian and Emmy-winning writer who is charming and quick-witted, though every time she guest-hosts is much too giggly and suck-uppy for my taste, and annoyingly announces she has a question almost every time before asking her question – is nonetheless a lot of fun because he’s very amusing.
This is the full Wait, Wait… broadcast, but you can jump directly to the “Not My Job” segment, it starts around the 18:15 mark.
