Not sure if I’m being levelled here, but the first four ToCs had multiple people with the same first name. The first one even had two in the same game. I have no idea how they handled it.
I definitely remember TOCs in which more than one person had the same name. They do try to keep them separated as much as possible, IIRC.
Then there was this

Where did this clip come from? I’ve never seen it. What’s the background?
Also, jeopardy on break this week? Or did Afghanistan coverage keep it off the air tonight?
Yeah season ended so on reruns now.
Clip is just some random person on the internet editing it. Fun fact is this was referenced during James Holzhauer’s run

Break for a month. New episodes on Sept 13
Maybe Matt will get a haircut during the break?
no way it’s like a playoff beard
Stellar vetting process by Sony.
This mf on today’s rerun is named Richard Johnson
There was somebody named Lizard on the rerun the other day. The Lizard people were right out in the open fucking with us.
Kinda weird that the guy responsible for choosing the replacement host chose himself.
Probably should’ve vetted himself better.
Dick Cheney says “hi”.

Sexism wasn’t a criteria against choosing a host this time, but he has made a note for when he retires to try and include it.
If someone told me this guy was choosing his next host I would assume they meant human host to lay eggs in.

Still a couple of episodes behind, but on the one just watched, they gave Matt a correct response of Xiaoping for Deng Xiaoping. WTF is that? It would be like someone getting credit for Jimmy in lieu of Jimmy Carter.
I suppose the host doesn’t know about Chinese naming conventions and assumed that Xiaoping was a last name.
The host doesn’t make the call. They have judges off camera who make those decisions. I’d have hoped they would be on top of such things.
In all fairness though, how many other Xiaopings are there?
