Along the way he reveals information such as:
— The best way to prepare as a contestant.

— What’s it like to be “behind the stage” as the show is taped.
— And hey, what’s Alex Trebek really like?

His appearance on “Jeopardy!” proved to be one of the most thrilling and unforgettable moments in his life, and this affectionate tale is a tribute to the people who make the show work.
