About this episode

John returns to discuss Canadian corrections, Jamie Ding's Jeopardy! performance, and the story of Anastasia.

John is BACK and not a moment too soon as he issues his "Canadian corrections" to last week's episode regarding a certain word pronunciation and Emily and Paolo not understand the importance of the Heated Rivalry fleece. Elsewhere, Jamie Ding continues his march towards superchamp status and also J! legend status as he plays one of the best Jeopardy! games of all-time. Plus, we dive deep on Anastasia.
