Hello Joe!

Dr. Know-It-All
Dr. Know-it-all is played by three players, sitting in a line of 3 chairs, and who are only allowed to speak one word at a time. So each player will say only one word, in the order Player 1-2-3-1 and so on. Another player, the host, will play the interviewer who questions Dr. Know-it-all, pulling questions from the audience and one question the host may ask.
