I arrived at the airport 2 hours early, then my flight was delayed by 1 hour, so I got a lot of listening in while waiting. The book is kind of disjointed but has some sweet moments. His political views are surprisingly naïve, leaning on a “why don’t we work TOGETHER to solve problems” framing w/o recognizing there is no common view of what the problems ARE. What’s the answer when the GOP *is* the problem?

Several sections on particular Jeopardy! contestants—Jennings (of course), Holzhauer, and Rutter, but also several lesser-known or lesser-remembered contestants. This appreciation of these folks is so sincere and kind; it made me tear up a little. He ended it with another call for “compromise” as an answer to political division, though, and the both-sidesism inherent in this still irks me.

I’m in the middle of an audiobook (THE FRIEND) but this one came available and it’s fairly short (5 hours). I still probably wouldn’t have checked it out because I listen to audiobooks quite slowly, except that I’m preparing to go on an airplane flight tomorrow, including a like 3.5-hour layover. I thought it likely I could get a lot of the way through this if not finish it outright. I guess we’ll see!
