Public radio's game show of bluff and bluster, words and whimsy. The warmest, wittiest cocktail party - it's spirited and civil, brainy and boisterous, peppered with musical interludes. Fast paced and playful, it's the most fun you can have with language without getting your mouth washed out with soap. Our motto: It's not important to know the answers, it's important to like the answers!

I just LOVE this show!
I’ve enjoyed this erudite quiz show for years. Panelists work together to solve word, music & cultural puzzles. The puns!!
What a language!
English is such a mess. a pile of misspellings and misunderstandings.
Says You! helps me enjoy it all the more.
Is there any way to keep this show on the air.
