Week of July 6: Emily Met Tom Cruise

from What Is...? A Jeopardy! Podcast · host Heller & Cullen

Yes, Jeopardy! games happened this week and Caleb Groen continues an impressive streak of ToC invites by winning his fifth game, but most of you will be here to hear about Tom Cruise showing up at Emily's work and her and all of her co-workers going nuts about it. Plus, Jeopardy! opens up a writer's spot, we get one of our favorite contestants of the entire season, and we dive deep on Florence Nightingale.
