Good morning, and Happy Monday! Today is Dr. Sanjay Gupta’s first day as guest host. He’ll be hosting for two weeks. This week’s and next week’s winnings will be matched and donated to Odyssey Atlanta. Now: here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Monarchies) for Monday, June 28, 2021 (Season 37, Game 196):
The future Charles I suddenly became next in line to the throne of Austria in this year
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Spencer Pace, a store operations associate originally from Boston, Massachusetts
Courtney Shah, a community college instructor from Portland, Oregon
Austin Weiss, a pediatrician from San Diego, California (1-day total: $12,900)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: Austin survived a Triple Stumper Final Jeopardy! with a very intelligent wager from second place—a wager that fewer people make than they should. Thus, he gets to return as a 1-day champion today. With his buzzer stats being around 30% after one game, those will need to improve for him to have a chance of defending his title.
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: What is 1914?
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.)
Charles I (of the House of Habsburg-Lorraine) became heir presumptive in Austria-Hungary due to the 1914 assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand—the event that also precipitated the start of World War I. Charles ascended to the throne himself in 1916 after the death of Franz Joseph I. His attempts to negotiate Austria-Hungary’s exit from the war was unsuccessful and was dethroned following the war, with the Austria-Hungary empire disintegrating. He died while exiled in Madeira in 1922.

Andy’s Thoughts:
- Through 1 day, $18,400 has been donated to Odyssey Atlanta. $1,931,361 has been donated to all charities.
- Even though Sanjay seemed to be reading slower, it felt like he kept the game moving well.
- Going to $400 clues with higher-value clues on the board late in the game and a Daily Double still out is a surefire way to give your opponents a much better chance of landing that Daily Double. This would have been a much different endgame had Courtney gone from $1600 to $2000 in SCIENCE instead of $400 (and thereby yielding control of the board to Austin when Austin got the $400 clue.)
