The conference (How I Built This Summit) is a haven for aspiration at all ages.

– The New York Times, on How I Built This Summit

…there is no greater endorsement than to be presented to the public by NPR Music.

– Wall Street Journal, on NPR Music

Sitting in the audience may have been more fun than being on stage — you could play along without the pressure.

– Indy Week, on Ask Me Another

What happens off-microphone is often funnier. [Peter] Sagal keeps the audience amused and informed.

– The Chicago Reader, on Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me

Thanks so much to everyone on the team, you guys were great partners, and we definitely accomplished what we set out to do.
