PETER SAGAL, HOST:

Now panel, what is everybody going to be talking about after the Super Bowl? Mr. PJ O'Rourke?

PJ O'ROURKE: Well, Indiana's passed the right to work act and the unions are angry, and I think they've got an idea for a pretty attention getting protests. A bunch of burly AFL-CIO guys, this is not a wardrobe malfunction you're going to want to look at.

(SOUNDBITE OF LAUGHTER)

SAGAL: Charlie Pierce?

CHARLIE PIERCE: It will be when fans of the winning team storm out of Lucas Oil Stadium, radiant with victory, transported with ecstasy and they stop on the sidewalk and say all at the same time, "Wait, we're in Indianapolis."

(SOUNDBITE OF LAUGHTER)

SAGAL: And Faith Salie?

FAITH SALIE: At halftime, Donald Trump will announce his endorsement of Gisele.

(SOUNDBITE OF LAUGHTER)

CARL KASELL: Well, if any of those things happen, panel, we'll ask you about it on WAIT WAIT...DON'T TELL ME!

SAGAL: Thank you, Carl Kasell. Thanks also to PJ O'Rourke, Charlie Pierce and Faith Salie. Thanks to all of you for listening.

(SOUNDBITE OF APPLAUSE)

SAGAL: We appreciate it. I am Peter Sagal. We will see you next week.

(SOUNDBITE OF MUSIC)
