'Wait Wait' for August 16, 2025: With Atlas Obscura, Rose Matafeo, Lewis Black, and Moe Wagner!

Published August 16, 2025 at 11:50 AM EDT

This week, we desperately cling to the end of summer with some of our favorite guests, including Lewis Black, Moe Wagner, Rose Matafeo, and some never-before-heard segments with Atlas Obscura!

WRVO is at a critical moment.

Recent cuts to federal funding are challenging our mission to serve central and upstate New York with trusted journalism, vital local coverage, and the diverse programming that informs and connects our communities. This is the moment to join our community of supporters and help keep journalists on the ground, asking hard questions that matter to our region.

Stand with public media and make your gift today—not just for yourself, but for all who depend on WRVO as a trusted resource and civic cornerstone in central and upstate New York.
