Paula Poundstone

Comedian Paula Poundstone joins us to share her observations about life in 2025. A fan-favorite panelist on “Wait Wait … Don’t Tell Me!”, Poundstone was recently in Maine when the NPR quiz show came to Portland. We’ll ask her to tell us her thoughts on current events, her comedy podcast, the cancellation of Stephen Colbert's talk show, and what to do with an overweight cat.

Panelist:
Paula Poundstone, humorist, author, actress; regular panelist on NPR’s “Wait Wait … Don’t Tell Me!”; host of the podcast “Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone”

Jonathan was born in Monsey, New York. A field trip to Washington, DC when he was in 7th grade started him on his circuitous path to a career in public radio. The trip inspired a love of politics and led to his desire to one day call DC home. After graduating from Grinnell College, he worked on a couple of campaigns in Iowa (presidential and congressional) and moved to Washington, DC.
