I try to be balanced, but it is really cool that I beat Matt Amodio. It makes me feel justified for sitting on the couch watching TV and yelling, 'I could be on Jeopardy! I knew that one!'

definitely wasn't a snap decision for me. I don't know how long I've been watching the show but I certainly remember Ken Jennings' run when I was 13. I watchedpretty regularly from then until I went to college, and a few years ago I got back into watching.

It might be 22 minutes of airtime, but it felt like it was over in 10 minutes. It's so fast paced. Butwas great. I remember watching her guest hosting in June and when I came on stage for my first episode. I thought she was really getting the timing of the clues down and she was very, very personable. She was genuinely interested in the contestants and our weird stories. I really liked having her there.

I think the combination of Jessica and I playing really strongly was an alchemy that had to come together in order to take someone like Matt down. But also, so much of the game is random chance. The lineup of players, where you stand at each podium—except for the champion—and all of the clues and categories are completely random. There is a big element of chance, and I don't think that's always super clear to people watching.

And, the buzzer is tricky. The contestants get buzzer practice at the beginning of the day so we get a feel for it, but if you go back and watch all of Matt's shows, he's not always ringing in on time, and you can also see all the other contestants hitting their buzzers constantly. It's all a matter of catching the clue right as it ends.
