Host Mark Turner, and captains Carrie Simison and Mark Barz recall their favorite and funniest moments, give each other a hard time as always, and play one more round of 'Hot Off The Press!' for your amusement!

As we bring this labor of love to a close, our sincerest heartfelt thanks to all of our amazing panelists - even those who weren't so amazing. You know who you are. No, not you. Yes, you.

Also, a huge gracias to our incredible sponsors, in particular, those who provided alcohol. You enabled us. I hope you're proud of yourselves.

And a final MASSIVE outpouring of LOVE to each and every one of our listeners, whether you tuned in locally (shout out to Colorado Springs!), via the interwebs across the US and overseas, through Tri-Lakes Radio, or on-campus at the now infamous Hofstra University. YOU made it all worth while. YOU made us want to do it. In short, it's your fault. Especially you, Trevor Bibic.

It's been a ride. Who knows...maybe there's another stop or two for us to make yet? But for now, we'll love you and leave you with these wise words of wisdom: listen to the 'Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me' podcast instead. It's a way better show than our's anyway.
