Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Nobel Peace Prize Winners) for Tuesday, April 11, 2023 (Season 39, Game 152):

At times they each lived on Vilakazi St. in Soweto, so it claims to be the world’s only street home to 2 Nobel Peace Prize winners

(correct response beneath the contestants)

Today’s Jeopardy! contestants:

Kat Jepson, an artist originally from Virginia Beach, Virginia

Kat Jepson on Jeopardy!

Mark Sutch, a theatre professor from Concord, North Carolina

Mark Sutch on Jeopardy!

Robbi Ramirez, a writer from Orlando, Florida (1-day total: $23,800)

Robbi Ramirez on Jeopardy!

Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:

Orlando’s Robbi Ramirez is your new champion on Jeopardy! after a very strong Double Jeopardy! round; today’s challengers are artist Kat Jepson and theatre professor Mark Sutch.

Meanwhile, the spring Gamers vs. MS Twitch live-stream charity relay started on Friday! As always, many Twitch streamers—I’ll be joining the relay for the fifth time—will collectively raise money for MS Canada from April 7–17. Canada has some of the highest rates of multiple sclerosis in the world, with an estimated 1 in 385 Canadians living with MS. MS is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system that attacks myelin, the protective covering over the nerves. If the damage is bad enough, nerve impulses can be completely disrupted. There is no cure; however, researchers are learning more daily. I’ll be streaming on my Twitch channel from 2AM to 8AM Eastern on Friday, April 14; a donation link will be posted soon for those who want to donate in advance!

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 can, including any boosters as recommended. When wearing a mask, please ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

Correct response: Who are Nelson Mandela & Desmond Tutu?

More information about Final Jeopardy:

(The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2023 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)

1984 Nobel Peace Prize winner Desmond Tutu & 1993 winner Nelson Mandela at one time both lived on Vilakazi Street in Soweto, a neighborhood in Johannesburg, South Africa. On the street itself, Mandela’s House is now a historical museum.

That said, does nobody want to tell Vilakazi Street about a little thing called 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue? Because I’m pretty certain that four residents of that address alone (Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, Jimmy Carter, and Barack Obama) have won the Nobel Peace Prize. While there’s nothing wrong factually with the wording of today’s Final, as the clue only says that Vilakazi Street makes a claim—but this is only opening Jeopardy! up to receiving otherwise-unnecessary negative feedback from viewers.

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:

Game Recap:

Jeopardy! Round:

(Categories: Bad Boys In Books; Architecturally Speaking; I Got The Receipts; A Presidential Last Name; Whales; Time For A “Little” Music)

Robbie got to the first Daily Double shortly before the commercial break, and used it to extend a lead that he held for the entirety of the second segment. However, both Kat and Mark were playing well and were still very much in contention after 30 clues.

Statistics at the first break (14 clues):

Robbi 6 correct 0 incorrect
Kat 5 correct 1 incorrect
Mark 3 correct 1 incorrect

Statistics after the Jeopardy round:

Robbi 11 correct 0 incorrect
Kat 9 correct 2 incorrect
Mark 6 correct 1 incorrect

Double Jeopardy! Round:

(Categories: No, Prime Minister; Adapters; One Hot MoMA; The I.V. League; Queen Victoria Geography; A Language Of Consonant Plus Vowel)

Kat was certainly doing the best job of hunting Daily Doubles—and she was rewarded when she found both of them in a 3-clue span! Picking up a combined $8,000, she had a commanding but not insurmountable lead going into Final, while a pair of incorrect responses midway through the round took Robbi out of contention. Scores going into Final were Kat at $23,800, Mark at $13,600, and Robbi at $7,400.

Statistics after Double Jeopardy:

Kat 22 correct 2 incorrect
Mark 17 correct 3 incorrect
Robbi 15 correct 2 incorrect
Total number of unplayed clues this season: 23 (0 today).

Final Jeopardy! today was the fifth Triple Stumper in the past seven games (only three of the last ten games have had at least 1 player get Final Jeopardy! correct.) That means Kat is your new champion; she returns to defend tomorrow!

Andy’s Thoughts:

Final Jeopardy! wagering suggestions:

(Scores: Kat $23,800 Mark $13,600 Robbi $7,400)

Robbi: If you limit your bet to $599 you have the best chance of finishing second if Mark is incorrect. (Actual bet: $7,300)

Mark: Bet at least $6,801 to pass Kat if she’s incorrect. (Going all-in does maximize winnings if you do end up winning.) (Actual bet: $13,600)

Kat: Standard cover bet over Mark is $3,401. (Actual bet: $3,401)
