he was doomed.

I have a lot to thank for him, specifically because
he beat the three day champion last Friday.
Speaker 6 (02:40):
Right, knock that dude offs. That you could roll in
there and knock him off, you made it seem so
easy when we found out that you were on Jeopardy.
You made it seem like you were going down in
the first game. Right, You made it seem like you
were not going to win.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
I had to keep everything under wraps, and that was
by design. I didn't want to overplay it or underflame. Uh.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Wow, We're really proud of you, Arin.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
Thank you guys so much, and thank you so much

Speaker 6 (03:29):
And it was really a nice sign that you had
an Olympic National Park question to start your thingfe.
Speaker 7 (03:34):
Had I gotten that wrong, that would have set me
down a very very dark path. Right, we know the
answer that and I was have been in a haze
at the beginning of the show. So had I not

me going forward.

But so, like, is there like a wall at Jeopardy
in the Alex Trebek studios somewhere where every single Jeopardy
champion gets their name etched in something?
Speaker 4 (04:06):
I'd love that It'd be like the Stanley Cup, right, right,
I don't think there is, but I'll give you some insight.

green room and there is a small.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Closet with a star on the outside. It says Champions
Changing Room.

my next outfit, and fifteen minutes later.

I was back on the stage taping today's episode.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Wow. Wow. Oh, so it's like a marathon. How many
days would you do in a row?

one day.
Speaker 2 (04:41):

The first episode is taped at eleven am, and then
there are three episodes taped before lunch. There's an hour lunch,
and then they taped two after lunch.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
That's exhausting.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Did the second game have the same Did the second
game have the same feeling where you completely spent?
Speaker 4 (04:59):
I mean it's tough mentally, it's it's it's mentally fatiguing.
So I had one big diet coke for caffeine on
the buzzer and then.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
Try to get back out there and do as well
as the first game.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
