Live, from Chicago's famous Studebaker Theater, I'm Herringbone Winehouse sitting in for Peter Sagal on Wait Wait, Don't Tell Me. Today's guests have all been rounded up by ICE, so Bill Kurtis and I will exchange obscure yet witty barbs while a sad trumpet plays a downtempo version of the Wait Wait theme in a minor key.
This is Seersucker Van Zandt, and I'm asking you to go the phone...

Flashback to when you used to be able to make stuff like this your desktop background, just changing the pattern, color, and if it would fill/tile/stretch etc.

I'm Calico Morrison, and coming up next on The Delicious Dish, Pete Schweddy returns once again to give us a look at the methods his family has used to raise each pig that goes into a succulent Schweddy Wiener. So stay tuned and open your ears for Schweddy hogs, here on NPR.
First time long time here. Does Pete see the cost of Schweddy Balls going up with current market conditions for North American farmers?
Well I don't see a lot of happy hogs in our future, caller. My balls have never been in greater danger of being trampled by government officials. Imagine all our hogs are one package, and that package is about to be shoved into a dark, dirty, stinking hole. Unless we firmly grab that package and give it some sort of twist, American farmers are going to find it increasingly difficult to raise their hogs in the coming years.
