00:08Who is Skippy Goldenbaum?
00:10That is incorrect.
00:12He is Jewish, but we were looking for Happy Gilmore.
00:15At least he knew it.
00:17How did this come to be and what was the experience like?
00:19Happy Gilmore was a very big part of my college-era life.
00:24And so when they came to us, if you've seen the movie, you know it's not an exclusive Jeopardy! cameo.
00:29There's also 500 other cameos, you know, like me and Bad Bunny are now one degree of Kevin Bacon separation,
00:35which is cool.
00:36And they had this whole gag set up on the Jeopardy! stage.
00:39And this is a real thing that happens to people who are mentioned in Clues is something could go wrong.
00:44Like there could be a clue about you, but then what if the players don't know you?
00:48I have a writer friend where that happened to her.
00:50Her book came up, but then nobody could name it.
00:51And she was like, oh, that hurts.
00:55And that's kind of the gimmick in Happy Gilmore.
00:57But they came to our set and we got to, we got to hang out and the director was kind
01:01of throwing in jokes in real time.
01:03It was a lot of fun.
