I was pleasantly surprised to see him introduced as the champion on Thursday’s show. Unfortunately, I didn’t get a chance to see him win Wednesday’s game because on the west coast, Jeopardy! was pre-empted by the SOTU. Oh! The irony!
How sweet it is. ‘Cause next time I see some commenter pinhead babbling on about how what James says is nothing but grad-school incomprehensible-but-objectively-fascist gobbledygook, I’m just going say, “Oh yeah…but he won tens of thousands of smackers on Jeopardy. Can you at least comprehend that?”
P.S. I think James might credit Peter Lawler with the origin of the term postmodern conservative, at least in the old-time print-o-sphere.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Righteously awesome.
(Also, dude, put on some sideburns!)

Is there a way to watch the episode? I wanna see if I could beat him!
Also: Sad that he cut the sideburns.

I just turned on Jeopardy and thought to myself, Hey, that guy looks familiar. Wonder why. PoMoCo himself.

I ask again: But is it on YouTube?

For what it’s worth, James, I always mis-/over-pronounce “serif” too.
And that smug Canadian bastard didn’t need to correct you with such evident relish, either.

Since Poulos can’t say anything in under 1000 words, did they expand the show to an hour?

I had not commented on this because I could not think of anything pithy to say, so I’m going to go with I hope you won a lot of money, James.

I wanna see it! Is there somewhere I can? For free? And maybe even legally?
