Star Wars: Return of the Jedi Trivia

Hey gang, this is your host. Brian Rollins. I'm going off script. Just before today's episode we usually record two to three weeks beforehand but I felt compelled to talk to you really quick. So this Sunday we lost an icon. Alex Trebek, finally passed from pancreatic cancer. If you're anything like me, you're a huge fan of the Jeopardy growing up. It was my introduction to trigonometry. Via it was special, I shared it. With both my parents, watched it before, prepping for knowledge bowl games and college bowl games. And now I watch it with my kids. So this is the end of an era for us. But I wanted to send my love to all the folks at Jeopardy and the trip back family. We here at dorky geeky, nerdy loved, Alex, still love, Alex. One thing we can do is reach out and help. If you're familiar all with pancreatic cancer, you know how deadly it is? For those of you that are unfamiliar with it, it is the third deadliest cancer out there. The Five-Year survivability rate is 8%, the 10-year survivability rate is 2%. If you feel compelled to help out and reach out and do something in memory of Alex, I'm recommending you go to pan can dot-org. That's the pancreatic cancer Action Network. There are fantastic group I've done fundraising for them in the past. They help not only people fighting pancreatic cancer, but they're there to help create a support network for the families during and after their battle with pancreatic cancer. Sir, so I don't ask for any money, I don't have any sponsors, no ads, no nothing. So go out have your Pub, trivia team. Donate since Pub trivia is probably not happening where you are again.
