Peter Sagal

is Carissa Moore, the first ever female Olympic gold medalist in shortboard surfing and generally acclaimed as the greatest woman ever to ride a wave.

And one of those two icons joins us now.

Carissa Moore, welcome to Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me.

Since I brought up the mural, I gotta ask, what is it like, because you live in Honolulu still, where you grew up, what is it like to drive around and see your own sort of visage painted next to like one of the great national heroes and you're in front of him?

Really?

Yeah.

Somebody painted a 100-foot high painting.

They don't just wait a couple of days and paint over it.

They don't erase it.

You know what would be great?

I don't know if this is true, but if there were a liquor store across the street and you went in and they asked you for ID and you just pointed at it.

It's a dream.

It's really cool.

You grew up here in Honolulu.

You grew up surfing at Waikiki, right?

Which was basically the birthplace of surfing.

There's the statue of Duke right there.

And you got famous pretty early, right?

I saw an interview of you, an interview with you that was done when you were seven years old, surfing at Waikiki.

And you said to the interviewer, you liked surfing because, and I will quote you, I like it because it's different each day
