I have loved Jeopardy! ever since I first saw it. I remember thinking back in middle school that it was unfair that I had to miss the show because of school. Recently, we got a DVR at my house – one of the greatest creations by mankind , ever, I might add. The first show I set up to be recorded was naturally Jeopardy!. Not only do I record the show, but I actually record it three times a day. The regular show, the same show in HD, and an older version that’s being show on GSN. Ah, technology. Thankfully, I have a Wife that accepts, and even appreciates on certain days, my nerdery and she happily watches the show with me.
Anyways, the whole point of this post was so that I could link to this interview by Alex Trebek, done for Esquire Magazine in 2003. If you read that interview, I think you’ll find an interesting perspective about ol’ Alex. Furthermore, he’s apparently got a dirty-ass mouth. Which I think, frankly, is great.
