I guess I’m not the only one with a very shallow knowledge of asbestos.
The “Before & After” category was full of completely unknown and only vaguely familiar references: Keeping It One Hundred (?), He-Man, Suicide Squad, Squad Goals, Wakanda Forever, Forever 21. Those were all $2,000 clues for me.
The before and after category were easy for me but I haven’t watched suicide squad but still I have to find it online somewhere. Beelezebub wasn’t that hard to pronounce. So we almost had a four day winner but it didn’t happen but maybe Kevin can make a four day winner. A triple solve today would have worked out here. Did anyone else get final jeopardy today aside from me VJ?
Brian switched the “L” and the “Z” in Beelzebub, he said “Beezlebub” instead.
Yeah, that’s what I heard, Richard. Maybe they would have accepted it if he got the L in the right place.
@Lou, I’m sure you’re not the only one who got FJ.
