Testing, Testing

The Brian Lehrer Show | Apr 1, 2010
It’s time for an end-of-the-year news quiz! Listeners call in and put their knowledge of 2009’s events to the test with Slate’s Emily Bazelon and WNYC's own Soterios Johnson. Then, “unfriend” and “distracted driving” are the words of the year at Oxford and Webster’s.

Contest: Check out the list of the guests’ words-of-the-decade and see how many you can use in a sentence to be read on the air.

Tell us what you liked about the 2000s here!
