    Great show. Emily is wonderful.

    John. Stop with the lectures and talking tough. Fifty American dollars. One hundred American dollars. Leave your lame beefs with discord losers off the show. No one cares.

  • Best Podcast about a show on the internet.

    One of my favorite shows out there. Great recaps of episodes but I listen for the other stuff the hosts do. Very funny (and informative). An absolute must for any (even casual) fan of Jeopardy.

  • So good!

    Emily and John are amazing. They recap all of the episodes with fun observations but also pretty deep insight into strategy, while also having fun segments like “Contestant Anecdote of the Week” and “Jeopardy Fans are Fuming (JFAF).” Season two comes out of the gate with a bang.

I thought it was exciting, both in terms of very strong performances and fun categories!
The 2025 WIAJP Player of the Year: Drew Goins
Q: Do you feel like there was, you could tell that you had done better or was it just random?

Since I was 18, I auditioned for the first time in college and it's been a journey ever since, with this being my fifth attempt.
