Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Awards) for Friday, February 25, 2022 (Season 38, Game 120):
These awards have a retro version & winners include the novel “The Sword in the Stone” & “The War of the Worlds” radio broadcast
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Theresa Donohoe, an inventory planning analyst from Waltham, Massachusetts
Max Fronek, a creative director from West Hollywood, California
Christine Whelchel, a piano teacher & church organist from Spring Hill, Tennessee (2-day total: $44,600)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: After a game yesterday where both boards appeared to be a nightmare for all three contestants, Christine Whelchel pulled out her second victory. Max Fronek and Theresa Donohoe are the challengers hoping to prevent Christine from getting to win #3.
If the contestant photos from next week already seen on social media are any indication, we’ll be seeing Ken hosting again next week.
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, including any boosters as recommended. When wearing a mask, please ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

Correct response: What are the Hugo Awards?
More information about Final Jeopardy: (The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2022 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
The Hugo Awards have been awarded for science fiction literature at the World Science Fiction Convention since 1953. Retrospective Hugo awards have been awarded in some years to honor works from years prior to the first Hugos.
The mid-2010s saw a decline in the quality of the awards after a pair of slates, put forth by alt-right groups called the “Sad Puppies” and “Rabid Puppies”, dominated the 2015 and 2016 awards in many categories; this, sadly, saw more deserving authors denied the opportunity to be nominated for a Hugo in these years.
We have many new offerings at The Jeopardy! Fan Online Store! Proceeds from the sale of the “Doctor Oz’s Fast-Acting Snake Oil Elixir” T-shirt are being donated to The Trevor Project:
In order to redesign our merchandise area to serve you better in 2026, all merchandise sales have been temporarily taken offline. Look for a return in late 2026! All previous orders will still be supported.

Andy’s Thoughts:
- With regards to HOW PUNGENT! 2000: As per Encyclopedia Britannica, “by the late 20th century, most Limburger was produced in Germany and the United States”. This is in spite of the fact that the cheese did originate in the Belgian province of Liège. Due to its extensive production in Germany, the show was not incorrect in stating German in that clue.
