Re: Inside Jeopardy podcast
41:00 - Rob Worman question about triple beep when time's up for responding to clue. Alex used to have button to control timing and that shocked All-Stars when they found out when Alex Jacob asked about exact timing. Duty removed from hosts when guest hosts took over and now assoc. director Chloe C...

Re: Friday, June 25, 2021 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
The FJ! clue had me able to utilize the best prep for J! in watching the show faithfully. I was never going to be able to get that clue. I've heard that phrase before, probably noted it while watching the show, but the association with Broadway never congealed in my memory. "Broadway = great w...

Austin (Texas) & (Ginger) Rogers. Show #7286 had a clue about Austin (Texas) immediately following a clue about (Buck) Rogers. That game was the one where Buzzy Cohen (who beat Austin in the ToC) dethroned Andrew Pau (who lost to Austin in the ToC)! :o LOVE this example of the outstanding mindb...

Re: Tuesday, October 13, 2020 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
Kind of interesting that you can critique a wager even if you're the sole contestant. His small bet guaranteed that he'd be the first one (so far) cut from the ToC of the 4-game champs. To me, it'd be worth it to bet big and lock up the current 10th spot on the leaderboard - a likely invite if he w...

I just saw Mexico + insect and locked in on Monarch Butterfly. Lucky for you then, considering there's this rather well-known Mexican folk song called "La Cucaracha" (whose title translates to "The Cockroach")... +1 for the "oof, tough question... cockroach?" crowd. (I...

Re: Reruns to start May 4th
Rob: If you are reading this can you confirm or deny that you have recorded some kind of at-home message that could play to open and/or close the show ? That would be one way for me to check in on the games is if the champs are adding something like KJ did for his #1 and #75 re-airings. Otherwise, ...

Re: Friday, May 22, 2020 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
If Morgan and Shawn did no ahead-of-time thinking during the break then bad on them. Players are allowed to ponder what the category might mean and start working before the clue is revealed . Not to mention the wager-figuring time! This is one of those rare ultra-narrow FJ categories when the savvy...

Re: Wednesday, April 22, 2020 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
Thanks for the earworm, writers, with that combo of PHENOMENA & "DEE" DEE DEE-DEE-DEE Doesn't seem like either Alex or any of the contestants 'got' that "DEE" DEE, DEE-DEE-DEE was meant to be an add on to PHENOMENA. I'm sure the writer who came up with that was going "n...

Re: Wednesday, April 1, 2020 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
A way to remember the provinces in order starting on the west coast is that the first letters spell BASMOQ. I had the odd certainty that I'd see a geographic quad-point question in the TOC. So I had a few mnemonics at the ready... UCAN (I already knew this US classic from the 3rd grade) NN, S&M...

Re: Thursday, February 27, 2020 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
India has universities named for Indira Gandhi & this man, her father (Jonathan: Who is Nehru?) (Alex: Be more specific.) (Jonathan: I can't.) Jawaharlal Nehru Ouch. That's pretty harsh. Only justification I can think of is that the name of the university in the clue includes the first and last...

Re: Wednesday, February 26, 2020 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
So you jump through all the hoops you have to in order to get on this show, accrue a nice sum in your previous appearances and you've got a runaway so you can't lose, and you bet zero dollars in FJ? Zero? I’ll ask you the same thing I asked you not once but twice that you failed to answer back in t...

It wasn’t a mispronunciation, it was more she didn’t remember what the word was, she said it as if she thought it was Piram, not Priam . certainly not the worst mistake! I can report that this was a flashcard typo. The most painful kind of miss! (Ga lam iel cost me $1600 for precisely the same reas...

Re: 2020 Online Test announced - Jan 28, 29, 30
I am really disappointed with the audition cities they have. Not all of us have the funds to fly out to audition and being from Denver, California is the only state that is closest to me. Your point about cost is valid, of course, and it's why they have this national tour in the first place. But I ...
