What is Says You mean? Says You! is a word game quiz show that airs weekly in the United States on public radio stations. Richard Sher created the show in 1996 with the guiding philosophy: "It's not important to KNOW the answers: it's important to LIKE the answers."
Recorded in front of live audiences in theaters around the United States, the show is produced in Boston, Massachusetts. Its format, emphasis on witty repartee, and its tagline—"a game of bluff and bluster, words and whimsy"—are reminiscent of the similarly long-running BBC program My Word! (1956–1990).
Following the death of Richard Sher on February 9, 2015, original panelist Barry Nolan took over as host for two years, before returning to his seat as a panelist in early 2017. He was replaced as host by Gregg Porter of Seattle's KUOW-FM, with author/public radio contributor Dave Zobel frequently guest hosting in 2018 & 2019 when Porter was absent or returning as a panelist. Porter left Says You! in the summer of 2019, with Zobel serving as permanent host ever since.
Season 21 of Says You! marked the show's 500th episode.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, new episodes were recorded via Zoom or without a live audience, while archival episodes of early seasons were repackaged under the "Back 9" branding to be released on some weeks without a new episode, featuring 9 rounds taken from two early half-hour long episodes of the series.
