Since his groundbreaking 74 games Jeopardy! As early as 2004, Ken Jennings (Ken Jennings) has become a walking encyclopedia of popular culture. Ken's ingenuity and charisma won him a lot of money (up to 2.5 million US dollars to be precise) and the respect of his cherished host, Alex Trebek. Although Alex is no longer with us, we are sure he is looking down at Ken and it is great to see him preside over the danger! In the days when Mayim Bialik (The Big Bang Theory) did not take over.
Ken Jennings-who also holds the title of America's highest paid game show contestant-has accumulated a large number of nicknames since he became famous and stood on Alex's podium. From the "goat"-this is what he got after winning the danger! The greatest ever in 2020-for "Geekdom's Sea Biscuit" and "Professor", Ken is kicking his butt and naming it, literally. So, where did the nickname "Professor" come from?
Ken Jennings-former software engineer and captain of the Quiz Bowl team-earned his nickname "Professor" in the American version of The Chase, which was replayed in January 2021. Hosted by Sara Haines of The View, it is a fast-paced game show. In short, contestants try to make a lot of money by challenging game show champions (such as Ken Jennings)-also known as chasers.
The revival of the United States has witnessed danger! Smart men James Holzhauer, Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter will play the role of chasers. The goal of the contestants is to answer as many questions as possible correctly within a time span of 60 seconds, hoping to surpass the chasers. The clever chaser family is what distinguishes them from the generous cash bonuses.
In June 2021, the ABC program ushered in the quiz genius Mark "The Beast" Rabet-he has been a chaser for several versions of the chase. Just like beasts, other chasers also have nicknames.
At the beginning of each suspenseful episode, Sarah will introduce each chaser through a given nickname. James Holzhauer is considered a "Hawker", Brad Rutter is a "Circular Saw Machine", and as mentioned earlier, the legendary Ken Jennings is a "Professor".
According to the Seattle Times, Ken said in 2020: "I don't mind being a'professor', even though it is stolen courage." Yes, we have to clarify that Ken has never been a real professor.

Sara Haines explained why she felt that this version of The Chase had a different, almost warmer quality. "Our unique perspective on this reincarnation is that people enter with the established admiration, relationship and knowledge of these three people," she said, each exit.
As for the boys' activity on The Chase, well, they seem to have a lot of fun. According to media reports, professional sports gambler James Holzhauer said of the first season of the ABC revival: "I think we all have our own ideas." "Ken is a better person than Brad or I seem to be. , When he has to eliminate the contestants, you will feel that he feels very bad. I don't have this problem, we can say," he continued.

"The quotient with Ken's'Dad Joke' is either good or bad, depending on your position," Brad Rattle interjected.
He is the father, his brain is the most wrinkled of anyone we know, he is Ken "Professor" Jennings.
