In this volume, you'll find out which game show had to build a new set as part of a lawsuit settlement...What exactly a Sony ECM-51 is and how often you saw them on television...Which legendary newsman hosted more game shows than Bob Barker and Pat Sajak combined...the game show host who moonlighted as a voice coach for TV anchormen...which radio game show was briefly interrupted when a contestant went into labor and gave birth on the air...and lots, lots more ADAM NEDEFF has experienced TV game shows from both sides of the camera. As a contestant, he has played Trivial Pursuit: America Plays, Catch-21, and Who's Still Standing? As an employee, he has worked for The Price is Right and Wheel of Fortune.
