What celebrity do you want on your answering machine?

by Bob Sassone, posted May 25th 2009 7:14PM

Kiefer Sutherland was on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon on Friday and talked about 24 and, well, that whole head-butting thing (which has now been settled). He also did Fallon a favor by recording an outgoing message for him in his Jack Bauer persona (whole interview below - phone segment is near the end).

Not sure who I'd want on my answering machine. Maybe a character from The Simpsons, Jack Donaghy from 30 Rock, or Ben from Lost. I don't watch Idol, but having Simon on my phone could be funny. (Video also here.)

Clearly the answer for that question is Carl Kasell from NPR's Wait Wait Don't Tell Me quiz show!

Charo - and no one would be able to make out the the main part of the message, the only thing they'd make out is the end of the message where Charo yells Cuchi-Cuchi LOL
