			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>So&#8230; I was poking around the BBC website the other day, looking to see if there were any &#8220;Just a Minute&#8221; archives online. (which is a story for another time) and I found this panel show called &#8220;The Write Stuff.&#8221;  </p>
<p>In Great Britain there is this tradition of &#8220;panel shows&#8221; where very bright erudite people sit around and get quized, or say funny things, or <em>do</em> funny things (much like &#8220;Who&#8217;s Line is it Anyways,&#8221; which was based on a British show of the same name).  </p>
<p>Usually there&#8217;s a winner, but the winner doesn&#8217;t usually receive anything of value. Which is probably why it never caught on here. (The exception is probably NPR&#8217;s &#8220;Wait, wait, don&#8217;t tell me!&#8221; which is a kind of panel show.)  </p>
<p>In any event, I found this show, which is a literary quiz show. Each week there&#8217;s a featured writer (the last two have been John Grisham and Jonathan Swift).  There&#8217;s a quiz about that writer, several general literature quizes and then, at the end, each of the writers has to give a pastiche/tribute of the writer on a topic of the narrator&#8217;s choosing.  (last week, they did a Jonathan Swiftian take on automated operators and commuting cyclists, for example).</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve listened to the previous two shows, and managed to answer one question correctly. Here&#8217;s a <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/thewritestuff/pip/9k1hm/">link</a> to the most recent show. Give it a half hour (And you&#8217;ll need real player to listen). It&#8217;s fairly mind blowing.</p>
<p>(and Chris &amp; John, you should play it for KitKat; this week&#8217;s theme is Hans Christian Andersen).  </p>
