Hello, You Should Know Better fans. As you may or may not know,
sag AFTRA, the union I am a proud member of, as well
as many of our guests, has gone on strike. Part of adhering to
this work stoppage is that we cannot promote TV shows and films that are covered
in this contract dispute, so we are going to hold off on releasing any
new episodes until the strike is over. We don't want to get anyone in
trouble, but we will be reposting some of our favorite Jeopardy Champs episodes from
yesteryear, and as always, feel free to listen to any of our previous
fifty plus pods. We thank you for your support and understanding, and hopefully

I'm so excited to have you both here. First, let's introduce all
the way from gross Point, Michigan. He's a choral music teacher. He
won the twenty twenty Teachers Tournament and was on just this spring, the Tournament
of Champions. And did you guys play against each other in a game?
Yeah? He beat me. Oh what a what a rat bastard? He
is daily double. It could have been a very very different night for his

that you thought to invite me on here and anything that comes with trivia,
I'll come, I'll come along. That's awesome. Yeah, I think,
I think so Trivia Jeopardy bringing us all back together is all good. And
what charity are you playing for today? So the charity that I'm playing for
is the Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Network. Obviously a lot of your listeners will know
that pancreatic cancer is what Alex was struggling with into life. It is one
of the forms of cancer that has the lowest survival rate once it's diagnosed,
and it is also the former cancer that unfortunately took my wife's mom about four
years ago. So it was very surreal being on stage with Alex knowing what
he was going through, and having been through a similar supportive role or struggle
through through my own personal connections and through my mics. So, um,
it's a it's an important cause. Any anytime I have an opportunity to or
people nowadays it's it's for Christmas when you're getting together with family and you're like,
well, I'm an adult and I can get my own stuff, So,
you know, make a donation to such and such in my name,
and Pancreatic Cancer Action Network is always one of the first ones. And tastic
what's a pleasure to have you here and so glad you're playing for that charity.
Um, we're going to have a good time. Let's meet your opponent,
the guy that beat you in the Tournament of Champions. Weirdo Beardo over
here all the way from Burbank, California. We're neighbors, Kevin. We
need to go have a drink, so sometime soon. Um, what do
you What do you do for a living? The story analyst at Ambling Partners
Streamworks fantastic Um. He was a producer on the award one of the producers
on the award winning twenty ten documentary Marwin Call, which is one of my
favorite documentaries about Mark Hogan. Campum. You were a five game winner on
Jeopardy and you were in the recent Tournament of Champions where you beat Ben.
Mister Kevin Walsh is here. Thank you, Mike for that very glowing introduction.
You're quite cruel to Ben, who doesn't deserve it. Truth, Man,
I lost in a good game. You know. It was a good
game, one daily double that I had no clue about for sure. So
I'm glad you got it. Let me just say that much. And Kevin,
who are you playing? What charity did you pick to play for today?
I opted for the American Heart Association for big reasons, primarily because they're
They're the main reason that I currently have a fiance. My fiance, Kate
was born with the co general party condition, the defect that at acquired to
get surgery when she was two and a half years old. Wow. So
yeah, So she spent her whole life with the ramifications of that surgery,
and the research that the American Heart Association helps to fund has been integral in
keeping her alive and healthy and having a great quality of life. So I
would like to give back to that. That's incredible, and we're glad she's
w with you. And we'll talk about that story of how you guys became
fiances with each other, because that's got another Jeopardy tie in that some listeners
might not know about, which is one of the coolest and cutest things I've
seen all year, something that we really needed during this tough time. So
Jens, thanks for being here, Thanks for picking these awesome charities. We'll
talk a little bit more about the charities and you guys along the way and
our journeys on the show Jeopardy, our favorite show of all time. All
right, let's get into some answers in round one our general knowledge Round Question
number one was who was the first woman to seek the Democratic nomination for president?
I'll start with you, Ben. What did you put for number one?
Well, first I said Victoria Woodhall, but that was not the Democratic
Party, was some other party. And at that point I blanked because I
thought there must have been someone before Hillary Clinton who was running. So I
put Geraldine Ferraro. That's a great guest, Kevin Walsh, what did you
put? I had the inverse. First, I thought Jodan Farraro in anything,
Well, that wasn't President shy, and then I went to Woodhall and
that's where I stuck. All right, party, so we have both.
We have Woodhall and we have Geraldine Ferraro. You are both incorrect. Nineteen
seventy two. She was also the first person of color Shirley Chisholm nineteen seventy
two. That's a tough one, that's a deep cut. But Shirley Chisholm,
Yeah, first woman and black black woman to seek the Democratic nomination for
president back in nineteen seventy two. There's a great documentary called Chisholm seventy two
that I would recommend. Number two Nicholas Copernicus, nicky cops, that's what
I call him. No one calls him that. Nicholas Copernicus, who formulated
the heliocentric model of our universe. Was from what country? Kevin? I
went with Poland and Benjamin, what did you put? I also said Poland,
you are both correct. You're on the board. One point there.
Excellent, you guys are on the board. Breathe easy, all right.
Number three I kind of fumbled this one, so I had to changed the
question. Former Daily Show correspondent Samantha Bee has her own show on TBS named
the title of the show. Ben that's full frontal, Kevin, what did
you put? Full frontal? I added with Samantha b but mainly full front
it is full frontal with Samantha by give yourselves a point, full frontal on
TBS with Samantha b. She is. She's very smart and hilarious. Question
number four it was our literature question. Vronsky is a main character in What
Leo Tolstoy Work? Kavin. I threw a dart at this one and hit
the Crime and Punishment, Crime and Punishment, Benjamin Henry, what did you
put Count Vronsky? I do believe is from Anna Karenina. The correct answer
is Anna Karen No, no, no no. Question number five, what
soul music legend had albums titled Talking Book, Innervisions and Music of My Mind?
Ben As a little Stevie Wonder Kevin Walsh? What did you put little
Stevie Wonder? Steve Land Morris, better known as Stevie Wonder is correct.
That answer deserves a huzzah. Question number six was our sports question named the
late great college basketball coach who coached the Tennessee Lady Vaals from nineteen seventy four
to two thousand and twelve. Kevin, See what I object you here is
you keep coming to me first on the ones that I don't know, I'm
just going either or I'm sorry. I have the famous idea, Uh you
know, I'm gonna say Jane Wooden. I'm just gonna make up a name.
That's that's a great guest because John is the king of all college basketball
coach, So that's great. Jane Wooden is a great guess. Ben Henry,
did you have a guess? I believe this is Pat Summit. Pat
Summit is your correct answer, Pat Summit, coach of Lady Valls. Yeah.
I'm not sure how many titles they want, but it was multiple titles,
and they were always in the final four. Question number seven, what
is the capital of Burkina? Fosso one of my it's my favorite capital.
Take Gousi. Gulpa is a close second, but this one takes the cake.
Ben, what did you put h Uagadoogu? Kevin, did you get
Uagadoogu? Oh? Yeah, that was That was very much in the COOC
training manual. No kind of Central African capitals or West western Africa Central.
It's kind of near there. Yeah, Ouagadoogu, Burkina Fossio. Um.
I gotta go there. I have to. That's like another that's like,
now that I've reached Jeopardy, my new bucket list is I gotta go stay
in Ouagadoogu, Burkina Fossio. Finally, question number eight, which leader was
not invited to the Yalta conference in February of nineteen forty five, and that
was the conference focused on dealing with Germany in the post war Europe. Um,
we're going to Kevin on this one? Did you know this one?
We're going to be because they didn't know it? Um? No, I
again, even though I'm almost certainly probably had to be there, But I
want to Stalin. You put Stalin Ben? Did you pick Stalin as well?
So? I originally wrote Stalin and I and I cannot remember through Yalta
and Potsdam and then wasn't there a third? There was a third one in
Casablanca, I think, And I don't know who was at all of them.
There's the famous picture of the three of them, but I don't know
from which one it was. So I nixed Stalin and I don't even think
he was the president of France at this point. But I said de Gall.
The correct answer is Chuck de Gall Charles. Those three were kind of
like the mean girls and didn't let Charles come to the cafetorium table that they
were sitting at. U. Yeah, at Yalta in Russia. Yeah,
Charles de gaul was not there to to carve up Europe and talk about Germany
and stuff. So after round one, Ben with seven and Kevin with four,
it's a three point game. It's seven to four. After round one,
that's that's a okay. So before we move on to round two,
which we'll get in very quickly, I just wanted to know your guys' story
of like getting on the show. How long did it take for you guys
to finally get on the show, or to get on the teachers tournament or
whatnot? How long did it take? So Kevin, we'll start with you.
What was your journey like to just make it to the show. One
way of looking at it took took years and years and years. The other
way of looking at it, as it happened almost immediately. But when I
was a teenager, I tried out to the team tournament and passed the test
and got to play a MOP game, and Alex came out and sort of
said hid everybody, which he was there was great, did not pass muster
after the mop game, didn't get the call, and so years past I
just watched the show. Fiance Kate is a huge fan of the show.
We watched together, we got back into it. I was like, oh,
the t online, Now I can give that a shot. And so
it was last January that it took the test. That was your first time
taking the online test. You got holy shit, that's awesome. That is
not what I did. No, I gather from now experience that that is
an atypical process. I think also, well, I had my follow up
and they let me do it on Zoom and then the actual mock gameplay interview
was by then we were in lockdown. Yeah, that that interview, and
then it was just okay, we'll see if we come back when we come
back. And then I guess about six weeks maybe before we actually started shooting,
at a call, they said we're back on and you're in. And
I think a lot of that had to do with the fact that I could
drink to Sony. To be honest, Yeah, that was that was that
was part of it. Are you close? But that's what's so cool.
That's a big reason why I want to do these shows is no one really
knows these these journeys of any of these players that we get to know and
we like on the show. But then they're gone and you kind of lose
touch with what like that you almost made the teen tournament a million years ago,
and then you're like just watching the show and you're like, I'll take
the test and you get it, and you go on and you win five
shows and get on the awesome I'm gonna object slightly to a million years ago
that's true. I was gonna say, you know that old Mike Gray,
and yes, it's very Yeah, that's that's an incredible story. Ben.
How about you? What was your journey to get on the show? So
I started taking the online test probably in twenty ten, twenty eleven or something,
and I took it several times. Uh, And I got an email
in twenty thirteen to do an in person in Detroit, and I got that
and I was in the contestant pool for eighteen months and never heard back.
I got put in the contesting pool again in around twenty seventeen. Eighteen months
went by, never heard back. So finally I took the test, the
online test again, and it would have been in like April I think of
twenty nineteen, give or take. And my wife took the test at the
same time and did better than me, and then I got an in person
in August, and then I got a call in January of twenty twenty to
do the taping at the end of February, two or three weeks before everything
shut down. So you know, all that long, long waited time,
and if it had been if the timing had been just a little worse,
it may not have happened. So it's very fortunate from all sorts of different
sides. Yeah, that's because that's an interesting point is you can take the
online test, and I think I think they threw out some numbers when you're
when you're at Jeopardy where it's like, you know, a couple hundred thousand
people take the test every year, and out of that maybe the four thousand
get the call to take the second battery of tests. So it's already one
hundred ninety six thousand plus people like you didn't make it. But we'll talk
more about our our our journeys on the show after round two. But let's
get to round two, which is your pop culture grab bag. Round two
pop culture grab Bag, We're going to the movies for round two, and
more specifically, these are movies that have this actress in them. She's one
of my favorites Rosario Dawson. These are Rosario Dawson films. So we're talking
from like the mid nineties to current times, movies from that era, so
we've all been alive during these movies. She's done. She's done some she's
done some deep cuts, but she's also done some blockbusters and whatnot. So
we'll see how this goes your your knowledge of Rosario Dawson films. Here we
go question number one. In round two, I'll give you the year and
a brief synopsis. You just give me the title of the film. So

the life of a group of teens as they travel around New York City skating,
drinking, smoking, and deflowering virgins. That is the IMDb synopsis of
this film. Once again, nineteen ninety five. The director Harmony Corinne directed

exploration of the dark and miserable Basin City and three of its residents, all

from those eight questions. I don't think anything's gonna help me. I feel
like I did pretty well. I feel like I did pretty well if I'm
being honest. That's good. That's good, because yeah, this was not
I don't think this was impossible, but I don't know I did better.
All right, Let's go through our answers for round two. Rosario Dawson and
Films Number one, nineteen ninety five. Harmony Krin directed this film by the
Day in the Life of a group of teens in New York City doing a
bunch of terrible things. Kevin, what did you put for number one?
Kids? Benjamin Henry? What did you put? That? Is also what
I put? It is correct, kids. I saw that in college.
Was disturbed but enthralled at the same time. Very Harmony Korean right there.
Yeah, totally groundbreak. I was just like, I feel, I feel
kind of bad and dirty watching this, but incredible Chloe Savini seeing her for
the very first time in a film, too, Rosario Dawson, kind of
incredible, kids? Is your answer for number one? Question? Number two?
Twenty nineteen. In the sequel Columbus, Tallahassee, Wichita and Little Rock
moved to the American Heartland as they face off against evolved zombies. Blah blah
blah blah blah, Ben, what did you put for number two? So,
I don't know how nitpicky you're going to be on exact wording. I
don't know if there's a two in the title, but I put zombieland double
tap and Kevin, what did you put for number two? I put the
two in the title, So I don't know if it's a I'm gonna I'm
gonna give it to you. I'm gonna give it to you if you put
it or didn't put it. I think that's fine because you guys got the
title zombieland double Tap. But if you put it two in there, I'm
not going to cut against that. I'm not going to be like Judges.
No, we're playing for charity, win or lose, it doesn't matter.
It's just I'm playing for pride and revenge, playing for keeps. Yeah.
Question number three was from two thousand and five. This film a version of
Bohemians in the East Village of New York City, struggling with all those predicaments.
Kevin, what did you put for number three? Yeah? That was
Rent, Ben, what did you you got this? Please say you got
this? So this is this is Rent Rant? Is your answer? Number
four was from twenty ten that freight train headed for that city. Chris Pine
and Denzel Washington are trying to get it to stop. What are you gonna
do? Ben? What did you come up with for that one word title?
For number four? I'm pretty sure this is unstoppable? Kevin? What
did you put? I think Ben's right, but I was like, I
had like runaway or something. I knew it was Tony Scotts last film,
wasn't I don't know. I think you might be right. We'll have Annie
looked that up. Was that Tony Scott's last film? The correct answer is
unstoppable? Unstoppable? Question number five from two thousand and two, cornered by
the DA convicted New York regular Montgomery Brogan, who's played by Ed Norton.
He was the protagonist in this film that we were looking for, the Spike
Lee film. Kevin, what did you put for number five? I do
not know this one, so I don't even think this is a Spike Lee
film that I guess, but I just put where the Devil Knows You're dead?
Trying to think of crime film. That's a great guests because Philip Seymour
Hoffman was in that film. Ben, what did you put so I think
you may put a little hint in there twenty four hour because I think this
film is called the twenty fifth Hour. That is correct, twenty fifth Hour.
Spikeley did not write it, but he did direct that film, which
I had no idea. But when you when you mentioned those other actors,
and I've never seen it, but I was like, I think that's the
one with that Norton. It came around the same time as twenty one Grams
and Blow and some of those other heavy drug correct, yeah, because that
came out, yeah, in two thousand and two. There's a scene in
the movie where one of them lives in a high rise in New York City
and it's overlooking ground zero, like you see like ground zero they use in
the film because that's like a time sets the time right there where they're at.
But I bought I bought a cool hand loop poster, which is one
of my favorite things I own in my home based on there's a poster at
Ed Norton and Rosario Dawson's apartment that's the coolest cool hand Loo poster I'd ever
seen, So I was like, I must own that, thank you.
Twenty fifth hour question number six from two thousand and seven. Two separate sets
of sets of voluptuous women are stalked at different times a scarred stuntman, Ben,
who is who? What is that? So the stuntman I believe was
played by Kurt Russell? And that's death Proof? Kevin? Did you get
death proof man? Mike right? Deathly? Yeah? Make death Proof.
It was part of that twin Build Grindhouse feature with plant? Was it Planet
Terror was the other one? Terror? Yeah? Death Proof is your answer
for round six. Question number seven was from twenty seventeen to Cooler Than Ever
Bruce Wayne voice by Will Arnett. Can you give me this movie title?
Kevin? I feel like there's a subtitle here that I'm missing, But so
I just went with Lego Batman? Ben? Would you put? I said,
Lego Batman movie? It is the Lego Batman movie. I will give
you both, the point being very lenient. I'm not charging for me twos
or movie. It's like we got it's Lego Batman, the Lego Batman Movie.
Question number eight your final question two thousand and five, an exploration of
the dark and miserable Basin City. This was shot in black and white,
looked like a comic book. Ben, what did you put for number eight?
Well, when you said Basin City, I was like, all right,
then, so this is sin City. That is the correct answer,
Kevin, did you get Sin City? I hope? Oh yeah, I
have. I have some Frank Miller print stuff on my wall in my round.
Awesome. I was going to say, you own the graphic novel that
Frank Miller wrote, that it's based off of Sin City is correct. So
let's get your scores after around two, Kevin, you've gotten six? Ben,
did you get them? I did goodness for the twenty fifth hour,
and I was on an Ed Norton kick at that point in my life,
even though I never saw it. Nice. So we gotta I forgot to
update our scoreboard. How how okay? Well? Ben's got fifteen, you're
doing blue and Ka Boogie's got ten. You're already at double digits. Don't
feel bad. It's fifteen to ten. We're at halftime. We're at halftime
of you should know better with Mike's Nelson, that's me. We're playing with
two former Jeopardy Jeopardy champions, Kevin Walsh and Ben Henry. So, yeah,
when you guys were on the show, you guys actually got to play
with our dear departed Alex Trebek. So do you guys have any stories of
just what it was like to to meet Alex and then and play your games
with him on our favorite show. It's strange you don't see him until the
show begins because he gets he gets paid too much to be out there for
dress rehearsals. But we did get the great privilege of doing some promotional things
with him before the episodes began, so, you know, a couple of
photographs with him and things like that, and that was that was really special,
consummate professional. And one of the things that your listeners might not know
is that if you ever go to a taping of Jeopardy or went to a
taping, he would answer audience questions during commercials and he was always so gracious
and had a great sense of humor. You know, a couple of people
said, what should we name our dog? You know, and you know
other people say, what do you think the the Canucks chances are this year?
Or whatever the case may be. And you know, some clearly trying
to cater to his Canadian sensibilities, but he had infinite patience. I just
count myself very fortunate to have been able to shake his hand and share the
stage with him. Fantastic, Kevin. Do you have any stories from from
meeting the man? The myth and legend? Just three moments stuck with me
because people might not know as well. When the game's over, he has
that little chat that you see over the credits and then they're like okay,
cut and then he's gone. He just turns to and he's just and that's
by design because he's not supposed to fright or eyes outside of the game and
everything like that, but it is a little disconcerting. So there was one
moment, and we didn't have an audience, so there was no banter with
him during the commercials right like that. He would just do his pickups and
that was it. But I do recall I was very happy during one interview
where I elicited what felt like a genuine chuckle from him, and so I
was like, that's a bucket list item. I got out laugh. Yes,
I made Alixtra Beck laugh. I got a Canadian geography question wrong,
and so I got to endure that the wrath the rath. And then there
was a moment and I like my third or fourth game and we were doing
final Jeopardy and I had to rewrite my wager because it was my penmanship was
poor. And he was at it. He was at his he was at
his lectern. He didn't even look up. He just said, come on,
Kevin, you've been here before. And oh, that's so great.
Piteously made me feel about this big, but also made me feel awesome because
I'm like, yeah, we've got banter now. He knows, he knows
I can take it right, buddy, Right, pal Alex, you're best
friends now. So it was really special, awesome. Thanks for those stories,
gents. Well, we'll talk a little bit more of our Jeopardy journeys
as we get going. But now it's time for the Lightning round round three.
The Lightning round round three, which is a little bit different. Yeah,
sound effects, thunderbolts, thunderclaps, lightning bolts, all that jazz.
We'll add that. Well, fix it in post again, Like you guys
aren't gonna know what the hell these are all about until we just until I
Sam, So this is the Lightning Round. It goes by very quick,
but it's just using a different part of our brains to see, like how
quick our recall is, because it's very easy to just hear the question and
be like, oh man, and there's five seconds gone. All right.
So the wide range of categories, so I hope these I hope you guys
pick good categories that you guys can have some fun with. So we're gonna
have our Kevin's gonna go first. He's down fifteen to ten heading into round
three, the Lightning Round. You can choose from these three girl groups.
Again, they don't have anything to do with the question or the answers,
but you can pick between three of my favorite girl groups TLC and Vogue or
Destiny's Child TLC and Vogue or Destiny's Child. Well we gotta go, s
Beyonce. Right, let's do Destiny's Child. All right, You're gonna do
Destiny's Child. So Ben, you need to pay attention because you're gonna get
your five second rebuttal like right after Kevin goes for twenty seconds, I'm gonna
I'm gonna say this question twice, your question twice and then say the word
go and then hit start and then you'll have twenty seconds after that. So
your category. Kevin, here we go. Clear your mind, take a
deep breath. I need for you to name the twelve disciples of Jesus Christ.
Name the names of the twelve Disciples of Jesus Christ. Go Simon,
Peter, Paul, Timothy, Oh jeez, Judas Iscariot, um uh Andrew,
oh boy um. You know I memorized these at one point. There
are two uh they're either two Simon's or two Peters. Stop. You got
at least four of them. I think you got Peter, Andrew, Judas,
Iscariot, and Simon the Zellott. All right, I'm coming to you
for your five second orbuttal Benjamin and go Thomas, James, the Greater James,
the Lesser John, Timothy, Bartholome, you Thadty. You got the
two James is for sure, you got Thaddeus. You got Thomas. That
was really quick. I was trying to think of all did you write him
down? We'll go, I said, Bartholomew. Yeah, Bartholomew or Nathaniel.
You could hear there's a couple of those that like they had two names.
So it's like Bartholomew or Nathaniel, James the lesser or younger Jude or
Thaddeus. You got Thaddius, So you got three? You got at least
five. Did you say Philip? I did not say Philip. Would you
say Matthew that's one of my brothers, and say math not one of your
close brothers. Oh, I'm kidding. I'm kidding, although he is.
There's a twelve year age difference between the two of us. Would you say
John, I said John, but Ken I couldn't. I was. It
was very quick. Don't get so good. I can't even see what I
wrote. Probably not. You can go to the tape. Yeah, we'll
have to go to the tape. I think we got at least ten out
of the twelve. We didn't get Philip. And then did someone say Matthew
or Levi okay, I think that one. Yeah, that was a tough
one too. So Philip and Matthew LEVI I don't think we got so.
I think Ben you got six and Kevin you got four in the twelve Disciples
of Jesus Christ. Amen. That's over right. Oh my god, I
think the wrong category. Um, all right, So Ben, it's your
turn in the barrel twenty seconds on the clock for you. You could take
TLC or end voke TLC. Should I free my mind or should I chase
waterfalls? I think I'm gonna being as this is a trivia podcast, I'm
gonna free my mind and the rest will follow. Oh, this is a
great one. I like this one. You might hate me, but I
think this will see an interesting question. So Kevin, be on the ready
for your rebuttal, I need you to name the twelve US presidents that had
facial hair. The twelve US presidents that had some sort of facial hair.
A go, Grant, Hayes, Harrison, Garfield, Cleveland, Roosevelt,
Theodore Roosevelt, h Harrison. I said you Kennon Van Buren, Adams,
No, Johnson McKinley, No, he didn't. Taft. I thinks you
got Taft under the wire. You got four or five? Six? You
got seven out of the twelve. Well you got John Quincy, Adams,
Rothford, B. Hayes, James A. Garfield, Grover, Cleveland,
Benjamin and Harrison, Teddy, Roosevelt, and Taft. Did say, Grant,
that was the first one I saw. Did say, Grant? You
have eight? Um? All right? So you have your five second or
buttle Kevin twelve presents said had facial hair. Go who knows? Still more,
pierced h Harrison, h Coolidge, Hoover stop, any of those have
fair I don't believe. So I missed Chester Arthur. That's facial hair.
Chester A. Arthur had some facial hair. Um, did you guys?
Either of you guys say Lincoln No, that answer deserves a spluche. That's
that's why I love the Lightning Round. I love the Lightning Round because of
that. Yeah, one of you guys got Benjamin Harrison, right, Yeah,
I went through the Gilded Age almost in order. Okay, so yeah,
I think ben got it first, but I think you said it.
So I almost wanted to give Kevin Benjamin Harrison. But yeah, like the
Lightning Round again, you're like you're thinking of all these deep cuts. You're
like, oh, um, the other ones we didn't get. I don't
believe was Martin van Buren. I said, maybe I didn't. I thought,
I said Ben Buren. I don't know if you said it again.
This is tough to gauge because it was so quick. And Zachary Taylor Old
Ruffin Sady has some head, some head, some choppage. So we'll just
we'll just go with that because you did great Ben in that that round you
got you got eight of them. But yeah, Abraham again, it's so
weird that like that happens all the time, where you get all excited and
you're like, oh, I forgot George Washington, I forgot I forgot the
obvious ones, I forgot the big one. So we're updating the score here,
Ben, holy smokes in the lightning round. That was a hell of
a lightning round. I got lucky. It's a president's thing again. Four
team, we're up to twenty nine points. That dude, that's impressive.
Ben. You're really showing off. This is a grudge match. You are
really like exacting Revengean sorry, I wasn't gonna say anything else after I said
it like four times, Like all right, you're beating a dead horse here
is really piling on this port. I just keep thinking about your brother spitefully
going on Jeopardy just to be like, it's not so hard. How is
it that you haven't been done? It will say, Kevin's memorabilia room far
out strips anything I could ever hope to have in my life. It's incredible,
all right. That was the crazy nutty Cuckoo where we forgot about honest
Abe who for the umpteenth time I just read today he was. They do
that every twenty years. They judge all the presidents and ray who's the best
and who's the worst. And Abe took the prize again number one for like
eighty years run or whatever. Um, guys, we're here with Kevin Walsh
and Henry. They're both former Jeopardy champions that are joining us here on you
should know better playing for we got the American Heart Association. Kevin's playing for
Very Near and Dear to his Heart and Ben Henry is playing for the Pancreatic
Cancer Action Network, both incredible charities. Were very lucky to have you both
here with us. What has happened since your guys run, Because you guys
had different runs than most Jeopardy contestants where you got to be on Ben,
you were in two tournaments and Kevin you had a nice five day run followed
by the Tournament of Champions and like talk about you know what what's happened since
then? And like the camaraderie of this last Tournament of Champions just seemed like
it was there was something special about this last group of contestants where you guys
have become very close. If you guys want to tell some stories about that.
I called Ben our champ counselor because when we were at the tournament and
everybody who's in the staged in the Wheel Fortune audience area, Ben was one
who carry came to the forefront in terms of bonding group and the icebreakers and
so as the over the course of the you know, the four days or
so, that really facilitated feeling like a group, like a co wort,
as opposed to something super competitive and antagonistic. I regretted in my initial run.
And you have this experience too, I'm sure, Mike, since we
shot during COVID when that was tougher. Yeah, you couldn't. You couldn't
really mix and mingle with the contestancy. So that was something I was really
hoping to experience with the tournament, and it happened in a way that I
beyond my wildest dreams. Um, it's just a really great group of folks,
the alternates as well, everybody who's just super cool and so it's it's
really been the second best thing to come out of Jeopardy for me easily.
Yeah, yeah, we'll get We'll get to that very best thing, uh,
in a little bit, because that's that's that's a that's a topper.
Well we'll end with that because that's such a beautiful story, Ben, Do
you have any stories from the Teachers Tournament or the Tournament of Champions that you'd
like to talk about? Much the same Immediately when we all got together,
we had this thing in common, right, we're all teachers, and Jeopardy
is also in itself a bonding experience of going through the show itself is kind
of traumatic, right. You know, you're talking about high stakes, the
potential to win lots of money, lose lots of money. It's in a
way, it's kind of like gambling, but you know, with a little
bit sort of a different mechanics in place, and it can really most people
who play, most former contestants I've talked to, they remember more of the
wrong answers they got than they do the correct answers. And that's coming from
multi day champions, right, And we're sort of programmed to think about the
negative things around it. And I want to give credit to Lauren Schneider Lipton,
who was one of the contestants in the Teacher Tournament, who was really
proactive about making sure that we put a Facebook group together and got our numbers
together as many of us as possible. And I just took that model and
rolled with it for the tournament and champions again. You immediately have something in
common with all the people they are a love of knowledge, a love of
learning, a curiosity, a hunger for it, the Socrates thing of the
I know I'm the wisest man because I know that I know nothing. So
that quest for knowledge, I think, is also a thing that ties us
together. And it's just really easy to keep in touch with everyone because because
of those commonalities. Yeah, it was cool to follow you guys on social
media, and that's how I just kind of I didn't know of this whole
fraternity or alumnis association that happens to Jeopardy until I was done. And then
someone invited me to the Facebook group and I was following to certain people had
befriended me, and I started befriending other people and just to follow you guys,
and seeing like, you know, the group meals you know that you
guys had because it was still doing a pandemic. But like, you guys
were just going out and eating at picnic tables together, and it was like,
what a cool thing because you're all from different parts of the country and
you're all staying at the hotel rooms and stuff. But that you guys found
time to bond right there. I was like, man, that's awesome.
That's that's what Jeopardy is all about. And again I reached out to a
handful of you. So some of your friends are are geared up to match
up against each other very very soon too. So I'm excited to hopefully get
the whole, the whole cast of characters back together on these one on ones
in the very near future. So again, thanks for thanks for being here
and sharing those stories. And yeah, I think it's just so cool.
I'm just I'm geeking out on all this jeopardydom that we're talking about that doesn't
talked about enough. All right, So after I think our judges have updated
score, it's still a bloodbath right now, twenty nine to fifteen in favor
of Ben Henry going into our final round, the Theodore Double Duty Radcliff round
where points are doubled. Round four the Double Duty and instead of eight questions,
there's always nine questions, so there's eighteen points on the board. So
we're gonna need Ben to not know anything about this next category and Kevin needs
to just run the table. This is all Marvel and d see comic books,
right, yea yeah, looking from what's on your wall, it's all
Marble versus DC. That is the category. Okay, No, that would
be great. No. The category for your final rounds of the Theodore Double
Duty Radcliff Round where points are doubled is US Geography. There are nine questions
that kind of run the ganbent of US geography. Are you ready? Yes,
sir? Tough shit. Here we go. Question number one in your
final round, what is the fourth largest state in size in area with the
square mileage of over one hundred and forty seven thousand square miles? Not one,
two, or three? But what is the fourth largest US state?

that one again. Question number one, US geography. What is the fourth
largest state in size coming in around one hundred and forty seven thousand plus square
mile The question numeral those Question number two, what city is the home of
the Negro League Hall of Fame. We all know Cooperstown, New York is

Hampshire For number five, Question number six, what is the smallest of the
Great Lakes in terms of surface area? In terms of surface area, what

Name the three rivers that meet up in Pittsburgh, PA. Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania, the famous Three Rivers Stadium of Pittsburgh where the Pirates played. Name

state? There's a number of Clark counties in a number of states, But
I want to know what is the most populous Clark County? What state is
that in? For number nine? Your final question in round four US geography

Let's go over your answers and the US geography round here. Question number one
was what is the fourth largest state in size at one hundred and forty seven
thousand plus square miles? Ben, what did you put for number one?
That's Montana? Kevin? What did you put from number one? I also
put Montana. The correct answer is Hannah, Montana. You both get the
two points. It is Montana for question number one. Question number two is
what the city is the home of the Negro League Hall of Fame? Kevin,
do you have a guess? It is a guess. It's a completely
wild guest. I just went with Atlanta, Atlanta, great guest, Ben,

Walsh. I went the Delaware of the Monogahela in the Susquehanna, Ben,
what did you put for the three rivers? I had the Ohio, the

those. We have the Ohio, the Alleghany, and the Monongahela. The
Ohio, the Alleghany and the Monongahela all converge and meet right there at that
crux of the beautiful city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Question number nine, our
final question, the most populous Clark County in the United States is located in
what state? Ben? I said, Nevada. Kevin, what did you

always like, we're waiting for Clark County to come in. It is Nevada,
folks. We're doing the tabulations. Ben with a very impressive win.
You are You are, without a doubt, the smartest person in the world
for one week. Ben Henry beats Kevin Walsh in their grudge match. Their
rematch. Well played, both of you. That was super fun. So
the show's not over. The game between you guys is over. We're gonna
give to your charities anyways. Pancreatic Cancer Action Network and American Hardesty Association.
That's easy for me to say, are both getting donations from you should know
better. So thanks for bringing those great charities to the floor tonight. I
want to get to this story though, before we get to the final throwdown.
We're gonna take a little break because Kevin has a great story that of
how his Jeopardy Tournament of Champions ended in maybe the coolest fashion. Some of
you might know this story, but some of you don't. So Kevin takeaway
what happened at the tail end of your journey on Jeopardy. Well, this
is something that I was hoping to do the first time I was on Jeopardy,
I was hoping to find some way to do this, and the moment
never really presented itself. But when I lost in the semi final of the
tournament champions, I said, I'm never gonna have another chance to do this.
So as I was leaving the stage, I asked the content, the
contestant coordinator, the test producer, their Koeena, if I could possibly use
the stage and just record a proposal to my girlfriend, like just take my
phone and just recorded them as well, And she talked to the powers that
be while they were recording the next semifinal and got back to me during one
of commercial breaks and said, okay, we're going to do it. So
when we broke for lunch and they recorded a winner Circle interview with Jennifer who
just won her semifinal, and then everybody else want to lunch, and I
stayed behind. They brought me up. They took me to the mark where
the host stands for Final Jeopardy, they put up on the board as the
category the final question, and I I got to propose to my girlfriend at
the time, and then came a month of keeping it from her, trying
to arrange a zoom watch of the episode with both of our parents, who
I clued into what was going to happen. I had to enlist Ben and
the other members of the tournament cohort who knew the score that for two things,
Hey, we were doing kind of zoom trivia and I'm like, please,
everybody just be aware that Kate doesn't know. And b since Jeopardy wanted
reaction footage, I had to spin a whole lie about they asked us all
to record watch party footage, and so I asked everybody, I said,
it comes up, just validate that story's great. And then I had an
awkward situation where I was able to tell our folks that was going to happen,
but I was not able to divulge any of the results of the tournament.
So as far as they knew, it was going to happen at the
quarterfinal game. But because of the nature of the video where I give away
that I'm at at the tournament. Jeopardy released the video until the next week,
so I couldn't do it that night, and so there was a very
awkward end to that evening where I was basically like, well see next week,
I guess, and the Terns were like, okay. I thought there
was going to be a proposal anyway, though. It was an awkward four
days, but we managed to get to Tuesday and she was genuinely surprised and
she said, what is Yes, she answered in the form of a question
like a true Jeopardy lover Jeopardy nerd. So for Jeopardy to allow her to
kind of be a part of the show in that way very special to do
both of us. You gotta get her. I'm working on it. Yeah,
she's next, She's got to get on the show. But yeah,
again, like I hope this is just the start of more of this,
and again I want to get Like Jimmy and Sarah from the Clue Crew,
I think it would be really great to have that on to tell their tale
of having the coolest job for the last twenty years of traveling the globe and
being with Alex that much, and Johnny Gilbert and the crew, and yeah,
just so that they we can see them outside of you know, them
just telling us you know what a Bunsen burner is or you know the Bavarian
chocolate they're eating part too. Are just two awesome people. There's like everybody
they're a Jeffrey as you mentioned, it is very cool, but Jimmy and
Sarah you know, handling the contestants in between, and kind of incredible.
They're just amazing people. Yeah, really really supportive and warm and nice.
Then again, yeah, that that place is a well oiled machine, but
they have just incredible, gracious, lovely people that make it an even better
experience than you expect, and your expectations are through the roof. So all
right, we're not done with the show. We still have the final Throwdown.
The Final Throwdown. This is where me and Ben go head to head
now on a producer's question. Our producer Annie has come up with a one
off question. It could be anything, it could be totally bs where we
both don't get it, we both get it right, one of us gets
it right. It's just a fun little thing where I get to play at
one time during this whole thing. So this is the final Throwdown. Me
against Tournament of Champions Alumni and teachers Tournament champion Ben Henry. So Annie's gonna
share her screen and Ben, you get first dibbs since you're our guests.
So we'll see if we can get this up here. All right, here
is the question. I will say it. I'll read it to you,
Benjamin, for all of our listeners at home. Who was the first female
to win multiple Grammy Awards? Who was the first female to win multiple Grammy
Awards? Can I ask for clarification? Sure? Is this in the same
awards ceremony or over the course of their career, like they won multiple in
the same night, or they won multiples over the course of their career?
The first female to win multiple awards on the same night at the Grammys.
All right, so, I you know, I'm gonna I'm gonna go away
from my first instinct and I'm gonna go and I'm gonna say Whitney Houston.
Whitney Houston, the first woman to win multiple Grammys on the same night.
I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go just way off the beaten path. I'm
gonna go a lot earlier. I don't know why I'm doing this, I
don't know what I'm thinking, but I'm gonna go with Ella Fitzgerald. That
was one of the ones I was thinking, Ella Fitzgerald, I'm gonna go
with. So she Annie's gonna reveal her answer. We have, the correct
answer is Ella Fitzgerald. Ben, You're still the smartest man in the world
for one week, but I beat you in the so I got I got
a little little street cred for forgetting that one right. It is good for
you. The first Lady of Song, Ella Fitzgerald. So here's some tidbits
about miss Ella, the Queen of scat too. The first Grammys took place
in nineteen fifty eight, which Fitzgerald won Best Vocal Performance Female and Best Jazz
Performance Individual. Overall, she won a total of thirteen Grammys over her career.
She is the first woman to receive Grammy's Lifetime Achievement Award. I did
not know that. And additionally, she was the first woman to perform at
the Grammys in nineteen fifty nine. So Ella did all the stuff at the
Grammys. So now we know that going forward, if there's a female Grammy's
question, we're all gonna know that Alla Fitzgerald is a great. Guess.
Well, Kevin, I'm curious what would you have said? Were you thinking
a third person or one of the ones we chose? I was, but
it was wrong. I was. I was going to throw it into James.
Oh that is a James. That's another name that pumped in my head.
That's a good one. Yeah, I didn't know what I thought.
Maybe Billy Holliday, and then I thought made Dolly Parton. But then I
was like country music. I happened at the first award ceremony. Yeah,
they did get it right, I guess from the start. Yeah, they
got it right right away. Shame on me for not having more faith in
the Grammys again, guys, Ben Henry having Walsh Um, we're we're going
to make some donations to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network for Alex Trebek in memory
of our dear departed friend Alex Trebeck in the American Heart Association. It couldn't
have been more fun having you guys here. I hope, well we'll have
you back and have more Jeopardy champs come back. But this was just a
thrill. So thanks so much for being here. Thank you, Mike.
I was having such a good day today and I really needed to be brought
back down to earth. So thank you, thank you for kee beating me
out. Yeah, yep, you were on your high horse coming into this,
and I really was. I was talking a lot of trash. No,
