Hello!
Just a quick interruption to my ongoing interview with quiz champion Yogesh Raut, to let you know about a little radio appearance I did last week.
On Thursday afternoon, I was invited onto the ABC Victorian statewide Drive program with Prue Bentley, to talk about winning game shows.
It was a great little (8-minute) chat, in which I outlined some of my favourite game show-winning training tips I’ve accumulated over the years. So if you’re interested in my top tips of all time, you can listen to our interview RIGHT HERE. (https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/vic-statewide-drive/drive/102975214) It starts around the 17:40 mark.
In other news, I stumbled across this AV Club article about the Jeopardy! strategy known as ‘the Forrest Bounce’…

It’s a great read if you’re interested in Jeopardy!, in the various tactics and strategies that can be used on it, and in the way that particular game continues to change and evolve. And while this article is an interesting read, it’s also proven a little controversial, with one of the key figures in it – James Holzhauer – taking to Twitter (X) to say this…
Imagine writing 2000 words about a game show strategy without knowing what the strategy is, who is using it, or how the audience feels about it https://t.co/oOBnM0CtoH

Intriguing… Long live the idea of spirited game show debate!
And that’s it for today. I’ll see you back here next Tuesday, where we’ll pick up our interview with Yogesh, right where we left off last week.
Until then, then!
