00:03Wheel of Fortune!
00:06Ladies and gentlemen, here are the stars of our show,
00:10Ryan Seacrest and Vanna White.
00:15Thank you very much.
00:19Thanks, Jim. Good to see you, buddy.
00:22Always great to see you.
00:23And you as well.
00:24And we're going to wheel and give work some money.
00:26Let's do it.
00:26All right, see you, Vanna White, everyone.
00:30Hi.
00:32Shall we play?
00:33Yes.
00:33And then we'll get to know each other.
00:35All right, grab that device down there.
00:36Yep, you got that one.
00:38It is worth $1,000, this first toss-up.
00:40And the category is fun and games.
00:42When you know the answer, press that button hard.
00:44And let's go.
00:49Stephanie.
00:50Monopoly.
00:51You don't waste any time, Stephanie.
00:52That's it. You're good at this.
00:54Stephanie Heitzer.
00:55Antioch, Illinois.
00:57So you got family back there.
00:58What do you guys do as a family?
00:59Well, I have a three-year-old son and a four-year-old son named Bob Dylan.
01:04Because my husband is a huge Bob Dylan fan.
01:07We like to go boating, tubing.
01:10And I just kind of follow suit and make sure that everybody's safe at the end of the day.
01:13And do you tube yourself?
01:14I used to in my teenage years now that I'm in my 40s and I see what the lake is
01:20really all about.
01:21I just chaperone or supervise on the boat.
01:23Wait, what do we not know about the lake?
01:25I'm so nervous.
01:26Well, okay.
01:27So back when I was like 12 or 13, I didn't care what I swam in.
01:31And now, when I actually go in the water and that green muck kind of like just gathers around you,
01:36I'm just like, no thanks.
01:37Yeah, let Bob Dylan get out there in the muck, right?
01:41And my husband.
01:42Good to have you and good luck, Stephanie.
01:44Jason Nidraka from Kernsville, North Carolina is here.
01:48Yes, sir.
01:48Now, you like music festivals, right?
01:51Absolutely.
01:51So I try to go to about four music festivals a year.
01:54And we spend all weekend getting lost in the woods, camping out with your friends, listening to live music, watching
02:00live art shows.
02:01Got live flow arts, which would be like lights and like flashing lights and fire dancers.
02:06And it's just an amazing time.
02:08Somebody on this set was just at a big music festival that goes over a long weekend.
02:13Do you want to guess?
02:14I can't imagine it would be you.
02:17I just couldn't see your hands getting that dirty.
02:18I'm going to have to go with Vanna.
02:20You are right.
02:22Yes.
02:24And it was fun.
02:26Wait, hold on for a second.
02:27You think those hands are dirtier than these?
02:30No comment.
02:32All right, Jason.
02:33Well, good luck tonight.
02:33Nice to have you.
02:34And we've got Derek Kimbrough from Memphis, Tennessee.
02:38How are you doing, Derek?
02:39I am great.
02:39How are you?
02:40Doing well, thank you.
02:41Hands are not dirty.
02:42Derek, what do you collect, my friend?
02:45With the help of my uncle, who's a former DJ, and having some rare finds in my mom's basement,
02:52I collect vinyl, 45s in particular.
02:54Do you have a favorite?
02:55I'm a big Aretha Franklin fan, and some of my former colleagues got a rare find for me
03:01One Step Ahead by Aretha Franklin.
03:03Yes.
03:03And there's someone special in your life that you want to mention before we get going.
03:07If I don't give a shout-out to my 105-year-old grandmother, Mama Sally, I would be in trouble.
03:14Mama Sally.
03:15Yes.
03:16Nice to have you.
03:16Good luck tonight.
03:17And thank you, Mama Sally, for watching.
