Did you shush someone?

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

I like to go into libraries just to shush everybody.

Librarian Mychal Threets talks rebooting Reading Rainbow and our panel eats goo

I just like to just be like, shh, shh, shh.
