Julia Collins (born November 10, 1982) is an American game show contestant and a supply chain professional from Wilmette, Illinois. She is best known for being a 20-day champion on the quiz show Jeopardy!. During her run from April 21 to June 2, 2014, she won $429,100, which is the fifth highest total in Jeopardy!

I remember her run.

That's impressive! I have watched it in the past and it's the only game show I would watch rather than turn off, I suspect.

I wonder how long this new champ will go. Good luck to them.

It’s delayed here so I’m happy to hear she won again.

She’s been interesting- she’s pretty low key and she manage to win in some weird situations! Iirc, she’s been way behind and not gotten final jeopardy but still won because she simply lost less than others.

They are usually way too timid. She's also very knowledgeable.
Don't think Sanjay wants the job but he's pretty good - comfortable in his skin.

We were shocked when the answer was NOT the citadel and all 3 contestants got it right.
