<p>In this episode of Post-Podium, I am joined by Justin Bolsen, the winner of the recent Jeopardy! High School Reunion Tournament - a competition including 27 contestants who previously competed in the teen tournaments of season 35. In his last appearance on the show, Justin finished as a semifinalist; this time around, he completed his redemption arc by defeating Jackson Jones and Maya Wright in a two-day total point affair final. Topics discussed include Justin's preparation for the teen tournament versus the HSRT, his eager response to a clue about one of his favorite musical artists, and how he plans to face his greatest challenge yet: the season 39 Tournament of Champions (TOC). We also analyze each of his games from the quarterfinals, semifinals, and finals individually and talk about, among other things, the nuances of gameplay and wagering strategy.</p> <p><strong>Timestamps</strong></p> <p>0:14 Introducing Justin Bolsen</p> <p>0:55 What was competing in the teen tournament like?</p> <p>2:16 Did Justin make any large purchases after the teen tournament?</p> <p>2:43 How did both groups of teen tournament contestants get to know each other?</p> <p>4:06 Justin on his connection to trivia after the teen tournament</p> <p>5:44 Justin's reaction to the first email about the HSRT</p> <p>7:21 Did Justin ever consider the possibility of a second chance?</p> <p>8:08 Who did Justin not want to face in the quarterfinals?</p> <p>9:28 Best glow-up of the HSRT?</p> <p>10:08 Justin on studying for the teen tournament vs. the HSRT</p> <p>12:01 Final Jeopardy! wagering was consistent throughout the HSRT</p> <p>12:57 Did Justin have any goals or expectations for the HSRT?</p> <p>13:52 Justin on how his quiz bowl experience shaped his preparation</p> <p>14:52 Justin's best and worst categories</p> <p>16:44 No college attire?</p> <p>17:43 Any unused contestant stories?</p> <p>18:45 <a href="https://j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=7728" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Justin's quarterfinal match (vs. Shriya Yarlagadda, vs. Teagan O'Sullivan)</a></p> <p>21:26 "Who is JID?"</p> <p>23:06 How did Justin spend his day off before the last taping day?</p> <p>25:00 <a href="https://j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=7748" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Justin's semifinal match (vs. Stephanie Pierson, vs. Claire Sattler)</a></p> <p>29:02 <a href="https://j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=7752" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">The Finals: Game 1 (vs. Jackson Jones, vs. Maya Wright)</a></p> <p>31:57 <a href="https://j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=7754" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">The Finals: Game 2</a></p> <p>35:02 Post-HSRT celebrations</p> <p>35:56 Justin's HSRT watch party experience</p> <p>37:00 Justin's dad's reaction to the finals</p> <p>37:42 How much clout does winning on Jeopardy! get you at Brown?</p> <p>38:22 Justin's plans for the prize money</p> <p>38:48 Who is Justin looking forward to meeting in the TOC?</p> <p>39:26 Some trivia regarding Justin's TOC berth</p> <p>40:03 How much time will Justin dedicate to TOC prep?</p> <p>40:59 Wrapping up and promoting social media</p> <p>42:06 Outro</p>

<p>Editor's Note: At 1:11:37, Andrew mentions Jeopardy! champion Ben Ingram and credits him with winning the 2013 TOC. This is a mistake; <a href="https://j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=4731" target="_blank">Ben won the TOC in 2014</a> while <a href="https://j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=4092" target="_blank">Colby Burnett won the TOC in 2013.</a></p> <p>In this episode of Post-Podium, I am joined by Andrew He, a 5-game Jeopardy! champion and the 2022 Tournament of Champions (TOC) first runner-up. I asked him a ton of questions - some including what it was like running into Amy Schneider during his initial run, watching her streak unfold from home, and how Andrew prepared himself in the months leading up to the TOC. We also spent some time recapping and analyzing each of his games from the quarterfinals, semifinals, and the six-game showdown between him, Amy, and Sam Buttrey. Finally towards the end, Andrew speaks candidly about his TOC performance, how his relationship with Jeopardy! has changed since competing in the TOC, and what he has planned for the future <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/jeopardy-masters-abc-1235296708/" target="_blank">(at least until Jeopardy!
