Has this happened to you?

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

Have you pulled out odd things out of books?

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

People are reading a book and they have to close the book, so they grab what is near to hand and put it in the book as a bookmark.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

Yeah.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

Yeah, I understand.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!

Let's say you have a little kid, however old, who doesn't like to read.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

Says they don't, anyway.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

Do you have a magic book that you have in your pocket, metaphorically speaking, to whip out and convert that kid into a reader?

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!

The child or the adult?

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

I was thinking of the adult.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

Yeah, I understand.

Well, Michael Threats, it is a joy to talk to you.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!

And this time we've invited you to play a game we're calling...

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

Don't read the rainbow.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

Taste the rainbow.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

Oh, no.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

You host Reading Rainbow, so we thought we'd ask you about the candy with the slogan, Taste the Rainbow.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

That is, of course, Skittles.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

Answer two or three questions about Skittles candies.
