Linder Peacock

What’s your name and where do you live?
Linder Peacock. Portsmouth, RI.

When did you start listening to TBTL? How did you find the show?
I think it was 2010, and I’m sure it was from hearing Luke on Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me. I need to go back and look at the archives for his appearances and listen again!

How would your friends describe you?
I’m going to answer this with a compliment that a store employee in Astoria, OR, said to me: “I love this. This whole look. You’re like a big bowl of sherbet!”

What was your favorite cereal when you were a kid? Is it still your fav?
My father was excessively strict about sugar, so we had the worst cereal options. My favorite cereal was anything in the summer when we could put blueberries in it.

What food do you love to eat the most of? 
I love cheese. I love a caprese salad, string cheese, brie, fancy cheese, cheap cheese, and individually wrapped cheese food products. The only kind I don’t like is Bleu cheese.

What’s the best or worst nickname you ever had?
Linder is my favorite nickname since it’s just spelling out the way Rhode Islanders say Linda. My best friend calls me Der. Just simple.

If you could play one song on TBTL, what would it be?
I’m having a great resurgence of Sinead O’Connor songs. “Mandinka” is such a great song to yell/sing to.

What’s a special skill you have that you’re most proud of?
I can really put together a meal out of the most neglected kitchen. My boyfriend calls it my Stone Soup Super power. (I think he forgets the actual lesson behind that story, but I get what he means)

What’s a special skill that you *wish* you had?
I wish I was a better listener and rememberer.

If you were driving down the street and you saw Luke and Andrew on the sidewalk, what would you yell at them as you drove past?
It would probably be something from the drops. Something like “Notice me Senpai, Notice me”

Can other Tens find you on social media? If so, how?
