In the upcoming round of the game show, Jim Carpenter, a retired music professor and conductor from Charlotte, Vermont, will face off against Judith Friedman, a software engineer from Los Angeles, California, and Miles Tepper, a graduate student from Pacific Grove, California. Jim Carpenter won $25,601 on his first day and hopes to earn more in the coming game.

Jeopardy! is one of the oldest and most well-known game shows around the world. Since it began in the early 1960s, it has managed to maintain an appeal that has stretched beyond the borders of the United States. Its offbeat format and engaging nature have long been the defining aspects of the show, along with the final round, which remains perhaps the biggest crowd puller.
