Good morning, Brew Daily Show. I'm Neil Freiman. And I'm Toby Howell. Today, Meta puts a social media spin on its AI chatbot, but will people like it?
Then Amazon flirted with the idea of listing a tariff surcharge next to its products, but then the White House called. It's Wednesday, April 30th. Let's ride. Let's ride.
Good morning, everyone. Toby, I am hyped. The biggest competition of the year kicks off tonight, Jeopardy Masters. The game show is bringing back its top-ranked players to compete in a tournament for a $500,000 prize. Everything about this is going to be supersized. Nine hour-long episodes consisting of two games each with the hardest questions, well, answers, you could think of.
Jeopardy has done a great job of turning its all-star contestants into household names.
We're also at the point in our lives, Neil, where we are seated for Jeopardy at 7 p.m., so this is appointment viewing for our crew here at MBD. But also, Neil, I am talking to a bit of a Jeopardy legend here. You were on the show many moons ago. Tell MBD listeners about that lore.
I don't know about legend, but yeah, in 2001, when I was 10 years old, I was on Kids Jeopardy, got to meet Alex Trebek. I said my favorite class in school was recess. which it still is. The cool kid. The cool kid. And we had a little buzzer trouble in Single Jeopardy, but we turned it around. I'm not going to tell anybody how it turned out. You'll just have to watch.
It's deep in the throes of YouTube, but it was a great time. I just really want to go back. So if there are any Jeopardy producers listening, get me on that show. I can get revenge.
