On today's episode, we have a game in progress between Kevin Kolsen and our current champion Bill McDee. After 2 wins, Bill has a total of $34,600 in cash and prizes.
While we're waiting on Bill & Kevin to respond, I'm looking for at least two stand-by contestants to play against the champion.
Please let me know and be on standby...

I am 53 years old, been married for 29 years. We have a son turning 21 tomrrow, and who is about to start his senior year of college, hopefully back on campus.
I work full time for a small family owned business that sells firefighting equipment to first responders.
In my spare time, I enjoy board games, cards, and watching vintage sitcoms and game shows too, and am very very glad to be back here once again!

With over 30 grand in cash and prizes, we all hope that you'll win more. Good luck to you, Bill. [APPLAUSE]*host walks to his podium* Before we went off the air, we had a game in progress with our players. Here are the nine categories... [CATEGORIES REVEAL]The categories are SCIENCE, FOOD & DRINK, FAMOUS BLONDES, CHEMISTRY, SITUATION COMEDIES, FICTIONAL CHARACTERS, INVENTIONS, DOUBLE OR NOTHING is a special category. If the contestant answered the question correctly, they could either keep the box or try to earn a second box. If unsuccessful, the contestant will lose both boxes. It's up to you if you want to go for the second category or stop and keep the box. And finally U.S. CAPITALS. Now... let's see what the board looks like. [Xs AND O REVEAL]At this moment, we have two Xs and one O on the board... [DING]...and we have $750 in the pot. Let's shuffle the categories. [CATEGORIES SHUFFLE]Voila... Since Kevin had won an O, it's now your turn, Bill. Please select a category...

This question is worth $250. If you're right, the pot will grow up to $1,000. Here's your query... U.S. CAPITALS
What is the capital of Texas?

Post by billmcdee on Jul 26, 2020 16:09:20 GMT -5
That would be Austin, Tony.

[AUDIENCE OOHs] Kevin is taking a gamble on this category. If he answers it correctly, he'll have the option of keeping the O in the box or go for the big risk and earn two boxes. The category is... VOCABULARY. Here's your multiple choice question. VOCABULARY

I've narrowed it to between two, and I hope this one is right: Externalization.

Post by tmann3x on Jul 26, 2020 22:55:31 GMT -5
The correct answer is... pandiculation.Sorry, Kevin. Let's shuffle... [CATEGORIES SHUFFLE]Bill, select a category.

Much as I'd like to go for the win, I'm going to incorporate some strategy here and go U.S. Capitals again Tony.

[AUDIENCE GROANS]You could have went with Fictional Characters to win, but who knows... it could happen on this category worth $250. Next question in US Capitals... U.S. CAPITALS
What is the capital of Tennessee?

Post by billmcdee on Jul 27, 2020 15:09:00 GMT -5
That would be Nashville I believe Tony.
