Ken Jennings throws shade at Amy Schneider
As ‘Jeopardy! Masters’ begins, so does the banter between Jennings and Schneider, as Jennings caught up with the contestants Matt Amodio and Andrew He, and of course, Schneider. The trans contestant made a remark, noting her winnings, subtly throwing shade at her other contestants, which amused the audience. However, Jennings wasn't the one to hold back as he threw the shade right back at her, ending with a little, “Oh, sorry. I don’t want to offend." The back-and-forth banter between Jennings and Schneider is bound to continue because if there is anyone who can beat Jennings at his own game, it has to be Schneider.
