Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category The Western Hemisphere) for Friday, June 10, 2022 (Season 38, Game 195):
Brazil stretches 2,700 miles from the Atlantic in the east to Serra do Divisor National Park on the border with this country in the west
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Siobhan Doherty, a voice and speech teacher originally from Santa Barbara, California
Randy Moss, an attorney from Walnut Creek, California
Eric Ahasic, a meteorologist from Minneapolis, Minnesota (4-day total: $105,801)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: In his four games, Eric Ahasic defeated a 16-day champion, and proceeded to follow that up with three very strong performances. Will he be able to run the taping week table today? Today’s challengers include someone who is not a former NFL receiver—Randy Moss—and voice and speech teacher Siobhan Doherty.
The question is still being asked, though: Why are there so many streaks and strong players in 2021 and 2022? COVID. The changes brought about by COVID, both to people’s lives in general, and the show itself, have brought about a perfect storm of sorts—the conditions are ripe. Firstly, a lot of contestants have taken the opportunity that the extra time that the pandemic gave them to improve their own knowledge. Secondly, the Anytime Test and Zoom auditions significantly lowered the barrier to contestantdom to a large portion of the American population. You had a large number of otherwise very worthy and very strong contestants who might not have been able to afford the money (or the time) required to get themselves to an audition site. Now, these players suddenly became able to audition from the comfort of their own home. These players are now getting onto the show and doing very well! I also think that things will adjust and return to normal eventually—though you’ll very likely still see one or two longer streaks a season.
PSA: The best way to keep COVID-19 at bay (and keep Jeopardy! producing new episodes) is for everybody to get their vaccinations as soon as they are able to, including any boosters as recommended. When wearing a mask, please ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

The park known as Parque Nacional da Serra do Divisior in Brazil and Parque Nacional Sierra Del Divisor in Peru is located in the state of Acre, near the border of the Peruvian regions of Loreto and Ucayali. Interestingly, fluvial transport (boats travelling along the Rio Môa and Rio Juruá) is the most common form of transportation in that area of Brazil.

Game Recap:
Jeopardy! Round categories: Where Am I?; Movies with Narrators; Animal Anagrams; The Shirt off Our Back; U.S. Dates; Jane Austen-Tatious
Today’s early game belonged to Eric, with our defending champion picking up 9 correct responses before the interviews (and another six after). Unfortunately for him (but fortunately for our challengers), it was Siobhan (who, almost stereotypically, grew up as an Irish dancer) who got to play the Daily Double in the round. Eric had a strong lead 30 clues.
Double Jeopardy! Round categories: A History of Nonviolence; Notes for a Biography; Killer Tunes; Earth Science; Secret Services; P is the Only Consonant
The turning point of today’s game certainly came in A HISTORY OF NONVIOLENCE. Eric ran that category (the second run category of his J! career), but the $1200 clue got negged by Siobhan and Randy first. To add insult to injury, the final Daily Double was found under the $1600 clue. Eric picked up just enough to barely hang onto a runaway as Randy’s late-game comeback came up one clue short. Eric led going into Final at $28,400, to Randy’s $13,800 and Siobhan’s $3,600.
Eric barely keeping his runaway proved crucial as Randy was the only correct player in Final. All three players made nominal bets, and Eric’s now a 5-day champion! He’ll be back on Monday to defend.
