Thank you for reading a special mid-week issue of the Jeopardy Answer & Question Recap, or JAQR [“jacker”] for short. This issue includes ten quizbowl-style current events questions. In a good quizbowl tossup, the first clue (often called the lead-in) is supposed to be hard, the middle clues are meant to be medium difficulty, and the clue at the end (often called the giveaway) is intended to be easy. You can find audio versions of the questions in the top half of this issue, followed by the question text and answers in the bottom half.
