Cue conservatives crying about 'Jeopardy!' going "woke".

I hate ICE, I hate DHS, I hate Trump, I hate the entire cabal running this country into the ground.

That takes courage for someone in his position. He has a lot to lose if the network turns against him.

I am thrilled to hear this! I am sure all two of the MAGAts who watch Jeopardy will start boycotting immediately.

Fun fact, I made it all the way to an in-person tryout in Culver City in 2017! It was such a fun experience even though I never got to actually appear on the show. I got 40 out of 50 questions correct, so not really sure what more they wanted. My daughter always reminds me that contestants are summoned at random from the pool of successful candidates, but I do wonder how I'd have done had I made it all the way.

Growing up, Jeopardy was my "thing" with my dad so even getting that far was one of the proudest accomplishments of my life. Wish he'd still been around to see it.
