Jeopardy! is all set to return with a new episode on Wednesday, August 7, 2024, bringing back another exciting episode from the game show's 40th season. This period of the game show is filled with encore episodes, which serve as a bridge between the season that concluded and the upcoming 41st season. Still, this time of the year is good for some trivia practice and for looking back at some of the most iconic games from the season that just concluded.

In the upcoming episode of the game show, David Sibley, an Episcopal priest from Walla Walla, Washington, will face off against Yogesh Raut, a social and personality psychologist from Vancouver, Washington, and Emily Sands, a project manager from Chanhassen, Minnesota. This is the 130th game of the 40th season, and those who do not remember this episode are in for a treat. As most remember, this season has no shortage of great games and great players, and this encore episode is no different.

Jeopardy! is one of the oldest and most renowned game shows in the history of American television. It began airing in the early 1960s and has since continued to entice fans worldwide with its offbeat format and engaging nature. The game show's appeal also largely stems from its final round, which serves as one of the key elements in pulling the crowd.

The final round of the game show is so well-regarded because it provides many offbeat twists on the regular play. This also includes the provision for viewer participation. Viewers can participate in the game show by guessing the correct answer to the final question before the episode's air time. Over the years, this has become a common practice for game show fans.

However, as this can still be a complicated process, we have compiled the question, answer, and other relevant details from the upcoming episode below.
