PR launched its weekly news quiz Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me! in 1998, with Kasell as official judge and scorekeeper. Kasell featured in several segments including “Who’s Carl This Time?” and the “Listener Limerick Challenge.”
Prior to October 21, 2017, listeners who won a game on the show could have Kasell record a greeting for their home answering machine or voice mail system. More than 2,000 people have had his voice on their answering machines, which he recorded even after he left the show.
