Billy Bush is the guest host and the first contestant is from Charlotte.
How the Charlotte contestant passed the test I flunked will remain a mystery.[/spoiler}
Of course I meant to say no Sunflower,
Suitguy is not bitter.
feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive
The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

Sorry, but who is Billy Bush? Has Billy Carter been adopted by the current first family?
Enough already. It's my fault! Get over it!
That'll be $10, please.

Billy Bush, huh? It figures that if they weren't taking one of Meredith's coworkers from the Today Show, they take someone who's job it its to obsess about celebrities.
From
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
William Hall "Billy" Bush (born October 13, 1971) is the co-host of the syndicated NBC Universal TV show Access Hollywood. He is a first cousin of George W. Bush.

He was recently a contestant in the show Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?, but he flunked, missing a question on the real first name of Civil War General Stonewall Jackson (Thomas). Bush incorrectly answered "Andrew" thinking the former president and the Civil War general were the same person. He left the show with $25,000 won for the Lollipop Foundation.
How quickly I forgot about him!

Billy Bush also hosted the forgettable revival of "Let's Make a Deal" for NBC six years ago.

I watch him test to be the host of "1 vs 100." I knew that they wouldn't pick him to actually be the host. He seemed to lack substance.

You got the hard test and Charlotte got the easy one.
That is my story and I am sticking to it.

Once again Pea is right and I am wrong.
