Week of June 8: Twice a Bird

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

After Jamie Ding's imperial run and three consecutive ToC invites, the inevitable finally happened: we saw a bad game of Jeopardy!. Of course, all games of Jeopardy! are great, but this week finally served as a reminder that the game is hard and we've been watching some very impressive runs. This week, Peter McFerrin's run comes to an end, we get a few tough games, and we get a Final Jeopardy! response for the ages. Plus, we dive deep on hypnotism. We don't want to resort to putting you in a deep sleep, but we DO want you to support the show and donate to our Patreon!
