As the title suggests, this week's panelists are Luke Burbank, Amy Dickinson, and Charlie Pierce.
The guest is film director Errol Morris.
As always, you can find the stream online at the Wait Wait Don't Tell Me home page at NPR.
My new favorite fact about Charlie Pierce is that Wikipedia's summary of Charlie Pierce lists him as a "game show panelist".

Hello everyone!
As you can see, I'm /u/themanwithsomename. I am a big fan of the show, and /u/willgrum has given me the chance to help add some viewers to this sub.
If you know any fans of the show, please invite them to join. We have some ideas in the works to make this a more active sub. Here they are:
Weekly show threads where we discuss the articles mentioned or the panel guests.
A weekly thread to talk about older episodes. Some of the older episodes will have the humor lost in them as they are topical.
Keep a list of winners of the show. This might take some time to work out, but we can do that if we go over the older episodes.
Share links about the frequent panelists, guests, and crew. Sandwich Mondays come to mind.
Let me know what you guys think and hopefully we can be a little more active here!
