Important note: Due to coverage yesterday of the debate for the New York City Democratic mayoral primary, this game will air on Friday, June 4 in New York City. If you are in New York, yesterday’s game airs tonight.
Happy Thursday! Through yesterday’s game, $66,502 has been donated to the National Alliance on Mental Illness. Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category 17th Century Frenchmen) for Thursday, June 3, 2021 (Season 37, Game 179):
Pope Urban VIII once said, “If there is a God,” this French minister “will have much to answer for. If not, he had a successful life”
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Julia Markham Cameron, an attorney from Brooklyn, New York
Grace Jeffrey, a global health environmental science graduate from Virginia Beach, Virginia
John Alba Cutler, an English professor from Wilmette, Illinois (1-day total: $19,700)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: John picked up nearly $20,000 for his win yesterday. The prediction model doesn’t really like his chances to win a second game; however, if he can improve on his average performance on the signalling device, he’ll be well-positioned today.
PSA: The best way to keep COVID-19 at bay (and keep Jeopardy! producing new episodes) is for everybody to get their vaccinations as soon as they are able to. When wearing a mask, ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

Correct response: Who is Cardinal Richelieu?
More information about Final Jeopardy: (The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2021 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
Cardinal Richelieu was a well-known French clergyman who served as Louis XIII’s chief minister between 1624 and 1642. However, he alienated many over the course of his life and was seen as very much an autocrat. Pope Urban VIII was not a fan of Richelieu, leading to the comment quoted in today’s clue.
Due to the time period in which the work was set, he figures prominently in the plot of Alexandre Dumas’ The Three Musketeers.

Andy’s Thoughts:
- Thus far, $85,952 has been donated to the National Alliance on Mental Illness.
- While it should probably be incumbent upon players to remember the rule, the host (and by extension, guest host) should remind players of the maximum Daily Double wager if they have less than the maximum. Players can often get nervous and forget.
