Episode Description

The Champions Wild Card finals are here, and they are a doozy, as we get the Jeopardy!-Honored "Game of the Year" and some stellar (no pun intended) play from a fantastic group of contestants. We also get a very self-deprecating response from Harvey Silikovitz, a Julia Child impression, and we preview the upcoming Tournament of Champions. And in a week of boring FJs, John manages to find an interesting angle to dive deep on William Faulkner.
