Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Historic Objects) for Tuesday, November 14, 2023 (Season 40, Game 47):
The inscription on this, made in 1753, concludes “unto all the inhabitants thereof”
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s Jeopardy! contestants:
Emily White, a marketing manager from Wilmington, Delaware
Brandon Deutsch, a law student from Long Beach, California
Nick Cascone, an orthopedic physician assistant originally from Queens, New York
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:
I am not a happy publisher this morning. I’ll get to why once I preview today’s game.
Today’s Champions Wildcard match features 2021 1-day champion Nick Cascone, 2021 3-day champion Brandon Deutsch, and 2021 2-day champion Emily White. I’d be shocked if Brandon’s interview wasn’t about how he was a student at UC-Berkeley during his run, with Cal alum Aaron Rodgers hosting—Aaron was certainly very happy at that fact nearly three years ago. In terms of a possible result today? I think yesterday’s game showed us that absolutely anything can happen, after top-seeded Emily Fiasco was bounced, with both of her two opponents clearing $20,000 before Final Jeopardy (and clearing $40,000 after it.)
There’s one other thing regarding yesterday’s game that I’d like to take some time to revisit today. There was a situation in yesterday’s game where Ken Jennings mispronounced the island of Newfoundland (as the locals will tell you, it rhymes with “Disneyland” or “understand”—Ken rhymed it with Maryland instead). However, I have a very major issue with how Ken has doubled down toward fans who took to social media to correct this mispronunciation, telling these fans that their issue is with the dictionary.
I am eschewing my usual “save it for the Saturday editorial” and pushing this onto a main recap page: Shoving Merriam-Webster in the face of a local population who is telling you how to pronounce the name of their home properly is arrogant and a bad look for the show for its official representative to act this way.
(Full disclosure: The publisher of this website is located in Mount Pearl, Newfoundland and Labrador.)
It’s not like we’re asking for a lot—Alex Trebek had no difficulty pronouncing the name properly—and it deeply hurts his legacy for his successor not to follow his lead. I am left feeling disrespected at this point, and I really hope that Ken and the show act better on this front going forward.

Correct response: What is the Liberty Bell?
The inscription on the famed Liberty Bell in Philadelphia is a quote from Leviticus 25:10—”proclaim LIBERTY throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof”.
The Liberty Bell was cast for the Pennsylvania State House; it gained that name in the early 19th century when abolitionists used it as a symbol for their cause. It hasn’t been rung since 1846, when a giant crack occurred on the bell after it was rung for George Washington’s birthday that year.

Final Jeopardy! wagering suggestions:
(Scores: Nick $18,200 Brandon $12,200 Emily $5,600)
Nick: Standard cover bet over Brandon is $6,201. However, if you really think Brandon will make a small bet here, you could limit your bet to $5,798. (Actual bet: $6,201)
Brandon: If Nick bets to cover and is incorrect, he falls to $11,999. Limit your bet to $199 or less for the best chance of victory. (Actual bet: $199)
Emily: If Nick bets properly, you have no chance of victory. However, the margins are thin. Go all in and give yourself a faint hope if Nick makes a mistake. (Actual bet: $5,600)
