    Read excerpt

    It's our second week back with Handsome Kevin Seccia, and dare I say we have our first breakout star of the season??? We do so much digging into the history of Groundhog Day you can basically call us Fred le Marmotte. The Greek Theater gets multiple shoutouts. We also "give dap" to our favorite responses and anecdotes of the week, including some prime bitchy Ken moments. Thanks as always to the Jeopardy! Fan and the J! Archive. This episode was produced by Producer Dan. Music is by Nate Heller.

    Well well well, looks like we CAN do the podcast without John! (even though the first time I tried to publish this I failed horribly) Emily is joined by friend of the podcast, Handsome Kevin Seccia, to recap the first week of season 43. Ken gets the Jeopardy! writers too online, Andrew Garfield seduces us down to his dungeon, Emily meets the Greatest Showman, and we play a new game: married or divorced? Special thank you, as always, to The Jeopardy! Fan and the J-Archive. This episode was produc

    Read excerpt

    The most prestigious awards in television are BACK, as we hand out our Jeoppy Awards for Season 41 of Jeopardy!, from the classic Response and Anecdote of the Year to the best names and misleading headlines from the year that was. And of course, the monologue returns, poking fun at all of the major stories from the season and almost certainly being the only comedy monologue about Jeopardy! to air anywhere on earth. Plus, this is John's last main feed episode (for now), so he says goodbye, and Em

    Who else could it be? A 31-game winning streak, a great sense of humour, and a hell of a lot of orange, Jamie Ding joins us to discuss his amazing run on the Alex Trebek Stage. We ask about his prep process, how he feels watching the ToC stack up with amazing contestants, his worst anecdote, his biggest purchase so far, and what it's like to hug Ben Affleck. And if you want to feel like you're getting a great hug from a celebrity, why not join the Patreon? Just $5/month gets you a new bonus epis

    Read excerpt

    The end of the 42nd season of Jeopardy! is here, and it ends with a week of absolute BANGERS, including what is potentially the Game of the Year on Thursday. We also get introduced to one of the more memorable players of the season in Grace Biermann, Caleb Groen's superchampion run comes to an end, and we dive deep on Billy Bob Thornton and Sling Blade. If you want to feel as good as marrying Angelina Jolie does (probably), then why not donate to the show? You'll get a brand-new bonus episode ev
