this past July, you will see that I was a three-time Jeopardy!

champion.

I was very excited.

Thank you guys very much.

Leading up to my appearance on Jeopardy, I'd spent about five months of prep getting really psyched for it.

What that does not prepare you for is actually being on set and just the magic.

It's so weird.

I had been a Jeopardy fan for 20 years.

So I've seen that studio, that set, many, many, many times.

So in a way, it felt familiar.

But at the same time, it was totally new.

You got there.

The thing that struck me was how

big it was.

It was just a massive, expansive room, much bigger than it looked on TV.

As far as meeting Alex, there was no sort of star struck quality because he is so good at making people comfortable.

Like his job every single day is to take three people who are having the biggest moment of their entire lives and

make them comfortable, get them set to play, put them at ease.

And he is so good at it.

So meeting him was just like, this is like an uncle or something, you know?
