Let’s be honest with each other, ever since you were a kid you have wanted to talk like Donald Duck. Although, you never knew how.
Thanks to Jeopardy, the show that teaches so much, has taught how to do one of the most iconic voices of our youth. It looks easy, but it is hard. So hard I cannot do it, but I crack up hysterically laughing every time I try.
How did you do? I know you have tried it! How can you not?
Jeopardy contestants seem to know everything about anything, but there is one category they cannot score a touch down on. In fact, none of them were able to even get a first down when they had ask questions on football.
Alex Trebek asked Ryan, Sara and Justin the $200 answer and there was dead silence from the three of them. Even quieter than the locker room of the team who just lost the Super Bowl. Would it get better after that? Not at all. The Jeopardy set was even more silent than it is in the middle of the night when no one is there.
Wonder if the game show will give this category a permanent time out or bring it back to see if another these can do better or worse? Although can any three fumble worse than these guys?
In defense of them, I did not get any of those answers either.
Back in October, Alex Trebek suffered a fall and he injured his head. Turns out it was more serious than even he knew. On December 15th, he was diagnosed with a subdural hematoma at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and underwent surgery the next day to remove the blood clots from his brain. After two days in the hospital, he was sent home to recuperate and the prognosis for the 77-year-old game show host is excellent.
In fact, he is doing so much better, he is expected to resume production of Jeopardy in mid-January. Since they tape so far in advance, Jeopardy says, “the only change made to the show’s schedule concerns the upcoming College Championship, which will now air in April.”
We know Trebek is such a gangsta or is it gangster, he will be back better than ever in a few weeks.
It has been a wild week on Jeopardy this week and it is not just because it is the College Championships. It started off with Alex Trebek rapping the questions, and now there was a kid who obviously was flipping the bird? Is that what Viraj Mehta was doing? His response on Twitter is what is “damn right I did.”
If he didn’t confirm the action we might not have known that is what he was really doing. That’s because it was not really obvious due to the fact that he was talking about why the tip stands up. Not that tip, but the tip of a pizza slice when you fold it.
I know I am getting old because I don’t think this was cool. But then again, I might’ve done the same when I was his age. Ah, youth!
Do you want to give him half the peace sign or the full one for this?

It is College Championship Week on Jeopardy, so they have questions that are more for their generation. One of those questions was Let’s Rap, Kids, and Alex Trebek had to Rap out the lyrics aka the answers or the questions depending on your take of it. How did it go? Let’s just say there is a reason there is only one White Rapper from Canada because they are not the best at it.
But the game show host gave it is best effort, so I adored him when he said, “I was just getting in to this Rap thing. I’m not that good at it, but I was getting into it.” Let’s hope they give him more categories like this in the future because it makes the smart show goofy and they need that every now and again.
