On this podcast episode of ѻýToday in BCѻý, host Peter McCully sits down with Chelsea Watt, a contestant on the iconic game show, ѻýJeopardy!ѻý
Watt shares her journey from being a lifelong fan of the show to becoming a contestant, discussing the rigorous audition process, the thrill of being on the show, the unexpected challenges she faced and the excitement of being in the contestant pool.
ѻýOne of my goals, if there was a Canadian question, was I wanted to get it correct and not embarrass all of Canada,ѻý said Watt. ѻýThere was a question where the answer was Celine Dion, and I did buzz in first, and I did get it correct, so I was happy with that.ѻý
Listeners get a behind-the-scenes look at what itѻýs like to be a contestant on the beloved quiz show, from the quick turnaround between episodes to the importance of keeping game outcomes a secret until they air.
ѻýPeople were so excited for me, and they were so excited to watch it. I was just like, ѻýyou guys are going to be wildly disappointed with how this turns out,ѻýѻý said Watt. ѻýYou always feel a bit bad that it maybe didnѻýt turn out the way that they hoped. I managed to keep the secret.ѻý
Watt discusses her strengths and weaknesses in different subjects or the pressure of living up to the ѻýJeopardy! girlѻý reputation at pub trivia nights.
She also shares some of her favorite ѻýJeopardy!ѻý contestants and moments from the showѻýs recent history, offering insight into what makes the program so enduring.
McCully asked Watt about host Ken Jennings.
ѻýHeѻýs so funny, really kind, super quick-witted. Itѻýs very clear when youѻýre playing or watching other people play that Ken knows most of the answers,ѻý said Watt.
