I've written previously, in this space, about my friends Morgan White Jr., and Mel Simons. Both are trivia experts, authors, and entertainers; both have appeared for years--Morgan as a host, Mel as a guest--on Boston's WBZ Radio.

Since November of 2013, Morgan has been the host of The Morgan Show, heard Saturdays on WBZ, from 10 p.m. to midnight (Eastern time). This week, Mel will be his guest. The program will feature Mel's "Audio Clip Trivia Quiz," in which listeners are asked to identify well-known voices (as heard, for example, on records, or radio and television programs). Mel will also be discussing his just-released book, The Comedians Trivia Book. It is the 11th title he has written for BearManor Media.
