Yes, you're reading that right. If you haven't looked at the announcement section of the board, Kevin and I are doing a host swap! He should be on his way to Television City to start the 14th episode of my Wheel series, and I hijacked his "Seasons" show. Again, this was slated to start earlier...but life got in the way for both of us. This is still a "April Fool's" show though, it is still April after all! Anyway, as on his show, a new year means a new set of changes: 1. First change is how the tossups are coordinated. These are conducted the same way Kevin does them, the only major change is now there's a second tossup: Tossup #1's worth $500 and the right to be interviewed first; the second, valued at $1,000, gives the player the right to start round 1; the third, worth $1,500, decides who starts the fourth round. 2. Wheel prizes are now either a trip, a cash prize, or a gift certificate. 3. And there's a bonus wheel that will determine your prize in the bonus round. The wheel has cash values of $5,000 and $25,000, there's a car and a couple of vacations mixed in there as well. When Kevin was last here, Bill McDee won over $60,000 in cash and merchandise! I need him to check in along with 2 opposing players, and all players of course watch your inbox, and we'll commence once everything and everyone gets settled! (FYI: Kevin and I have different "number drawing" games. The players who sign up here will use the number drawing procedure I use on the CBS shows) With all of that said...who wants to spin and win?

Sorry...just been informed that Bill retired undefeated on the last show...so we need 3 completely new players. Who's in?

I'm here doing Wheel at Sony, filling in for Kevin Kolsen, the original host of this show, who's over at Television City doing the shows on another network. I hope they pay me overtime for this.*laughter*Everything's the same though, just looks different. We'll start with a tossup for $500! Haven't done these in a while...let's hope I still "got it".TOSSUP $500
And the category is...THING.*puzzle reveal chimes*

Yessir! *tossup solve cue and applause* That nets you a cool $500 in cash for that solve, Matt. And you're first in line for the interview section of the show. Matt, I understand you work in a supermarket. How long have you been doing that?

That’s the spirit we like to have around here! But before we get going…remind the folks a bit about yourself if you don’t mind.

I am a shift leader at a national sub sandwich chain and been working at the franchise for over fourteen years. I also like to learn about different cultures and languages. I am trying to learn more Spanish and Korean as well. I like just about all types of music, collecting, and interior design.

Muy bien! Too bad I can't say very good in Korean. I don't even know how to say "Hi". *laughter* Good luck in our game, Kourtney. And now fellas grab those signaling devices again, because it's time for another tossup...this one for $1,000! TOSSUP $1,000We're looking for an EVENT.
*puzzle reveal chimes*
This tossup also determines who starts our first round of games. Vanna, take it away!
*tossup bed cue*
(Fellas...again I need the least amount of letters you want to reveal in the puzzle...along with a buzzcode from 1 to 100. Good luck!)
