For June 11, 2016 : Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me! SAGAL: Well, Kellee Edwards, it is an absolute delight to talk to you. Click the audio link above to find out how she does. Now the line has doubled because of the space. All rights reserved. Three questions about a pretty normal island right off the wild coast of eastern New Jersey. Kellee Edwards is a pilot, scuba diver, sailor and mountaineer who has explored many remote islands ... but how much does she know about Staten Island? Boom - homer. SAGAL: I like that because you're right. Well, Ryan Dempster, we have asked you here to play a game we're calling... BILL KURTIS: We Want a Pitcher, Not a Belly Itcher. Bill, who is Kellee Edwards playing for? (SOUNDBITE OF APPLAUSE SOUND EFFECT) KELLEE EDWARDS: Thank you for having me.

ADAM FELBER: Look at their faces. And I've stuck to that. Take me with you. SAGAL: It was a trough. Kellee Edwards, welcome to WAIT WAIT... DON'T TELL ME. There's nothing in there but insurance papers. That's all I've got.

And it worked. She's going to have all the gear.

SAGAL: I'm really happy you shared that and really upset that I have to follow that now. DEMPSTER: Oh, my gosh, yeah, nonstop. No problem.

And every - it's this quiet. I'm going to go get my avalanche training in October back in Colorado. DEMPSTER: I'm going to throw - 'cause, I mean, I think, like, the B, the lollipop.

EDWARDS: I'd grab you by that collar.

They were actually addressed to pole. He says, (imitating Harry Caray), let me guess, that son of a bitch was going to tell you I was speeding too. SAGAL: He sounded so confident. I am a Bond girl, Lara Croft, 007 in real life. Sorry. Ryan Dempster. SAGAL: Bill, how did Kellee Edwards do on our quiz? DEMPSTER: Seems like something American Airlines would do would take care of something two years down the road.

Every year in the fall, people used to rush to the island for the ritual annual construction of what?

Aroldis Chapman's pitching.

We'll be back in a minute with more WAIT WAIT... DON'T TELL ME from NPR. EDWARDS: Let me tell you why. EDWARDS: No, no polar bears. So... SAGAL: I was about to say, in the meeting of your new clan, don't lead with that, Josh. KELLEE EDWARDS: Thank you for having me. When you would go down there and you would just hear a lot of different things that you had no idea that your mother ever did. EDWARDS: I absolutely can. SAGAL: I don't know if your adventures have ever called upon survival skills, but we were just talking about that on the show. SAGAL: It really was. Did you guys on the team ever feel like, oh, my God, we're not going to be able to do this, it's slipping away from us? We've invited Dempster to play a game called "We want a pitcher, not a belly itcher!".

He's like, (imitating Harry Caray) to be honest with you, I've got a loaded gun in the glove compartment. It was very positive, I think. But everyone always says if anything goes wrong, call Kellee. It was built each year for the start of the New York City Marathon, but sadly, no more. B, after complaints of itching from several guests, a Super 8 motel in New Jersey revealed their manager had been letting his pet goat sleep in the beds during the day or C, after flight attendants complained their new uniforms made them severely itchy, American Airlines announced they'd get them new ones in two years.

It seemed odd.

SAGAL: We are told that you do a pretty good Harry Caray impersonation. St. Louis fans were really good. SAGAL: Oh, yes. I've definitely had an encounter or two with some wild animals, including moose, wolves, bear from really, really afar - but more so just being out in nature. I'm one of those friends. And Pat's like, oh, you're in trouble here. And he looks the cop in the eye. But the answer is the world's largest urinal. Accuracy and availability may vary.

He said you have a loaded gun in the glove compartment. We'll scuba dive near the arcade there. SAGAL: Wait a minute. We've got this. SAGAL: How did you get interested in being basically an adventurer? And so I came back and took a discovery flight from a Groupon for a hundred bucks and got hooked and sick in the plane - hooked and sick. SAGAL: Do you see - you can see it from the sky, I imagine, as you fly around. He's now a special adviser to the Cubs and an analyst for MLB network.

DEMPSTER: Yeah, just, well, it was - especially on the South Side.

Accuracy and availability may vary. EDWARDS: Yes, indeed.

If you and I were marooned together, I wouldn't even be able to boil you. And I just remember going, it's going to be all right. And I remember pitching in Florida and there was 1,000 people in the stands. And I'm in 144 and this happens. DEMPSTER: So he says, sir, you mind getting out of the vehicle? At this point, he kind of starts to sense something's going on. Choose a friend. He had so much fun he called up his friends back in Chicago and said, "Hey, you guys should try this!" The fleas survived being dropped from an airplane, but they never used it in combat. This text may not be in its final form and may be updated or revised in the future. SAGAL: You didn't know your mother got down below 35th street and yet, they seem to know her well. You decided you would actually learn to fly and fly yourself.

You know how when you're hungry you like to watch cooking shows? Dempster played for the Cubs for nine seasons before he left to win a World Series with the Boston Red Sox in 2013. DEMPSTER: I'm yelling, she's a nice lady.
And I say that.

It's registered to you. I had no idea that you didn't have to be a military pilot to become a pilot. So the only time I've ever flown myself in a small private plane, General Aviation, I got incredibly sick.

But after that, it's the Cubs.

A, the world's longest buffet, built out of the previously mentioned world's longest urinal, B, Spinnabon (ph), a Cinnabon/cycling gym, or C, Enoteca Maria, which only employs genuine Italian grandmothers as cooks? You are so right about that. All right.

But we have actually asked you here today to play a game that this time we're calling... SAGAL: So you've explored many exotic, remote islands. They put fleas in bombs to see if they could use them to infect other soldiers. DEMPSTER: Yeah, and that's how quiet it got.
He's like, how did you get this picture? And here we go, Game 7, everything on the line. For Dec. 17, 2016 : Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me!

And we're going to survive. But what do you know about a pretty normal island right off the wild coast of Eastern New Jersey - Staten Island?

It's called Not My Job. NPR transcripts are created on a rush deadline by Verb8tm, Inc., an NPR contractor, and produced using a proprietary transcription process developed with NPR. HONG: And then, B, I love that your pettiness drove you to learn how to fly an airplane.

Bill, who is Ryan Dempster playing for?

This was so fun. SAGAL: Wait a minute. SAGAL: Ryan Dempster, two-time All-Star, played for the Chicago Cubs for nine seasons, won the World Series with the Boston Red Sox.

I love the intro. He's like, you know, come on out here. FELBER: I will leave my family for you. Come on.

Copyright © 2020 NPR. So I'm, like, choose your friends wisely.

DEMPSTER: And boom, you know, there we go. UNIDENTIFIED MAN: So they were mating experiences. So the police officer shows up, he pulls up to the car. He gets him out of the car. GONDELMAN: Come on, Peter.

SAGAL: There must be so many people who are doing their best to become your best friend, right? You can see him on the MLB Network. And he, you know, he says, can I get your license and registration? SAGAL: In just a minute, Bill goes under the knife in the Listener Limerick Challenge.

SAGAL: You're going to - you're just going to - because I said Dolly Parton, you're just going to go, yes, Dolly Parton. And where are you? 2-Minute … I'll get out of this ticket. Ryan Dempster was the star pitcher for the Chicago Cubs for eight years before he left to win a World Series with the Boston Red Sox in 2013. EDWARDS: That was a great roundabout answer.

FELBER: My avalanche training was stay the hell away from avalanches.

SAGAL: American Airlines has spent over $2 million to find out why the new uniforms are so terribly itchy, and they don't know why yet. Ryan Dempster, ladies and gentlemen. So when you - I know just a little bit about flying. You don't talk about her like that.

DEMPSTER: I think our clubhouse guy used that on our jock straps. Next question - after months of receiving massive electricity bills in her mailbox, a Staten Island woman figured out the reason. I think that there definitely gets that emotion, that anxiety.

KURTIS: Maribeth Haughton of Chicago, Ill. SAGAL: There you are. EDWARDS: I like that. SAGAL: Can you do the castaway thing that Tom Hanks did and actually make a fire from, like, sticks if you needed to? I just said, it's going to be all right. Do you have any survival skills? SAGAL: Hypothetically.
