"Captain Von Trapp" had shot several video answers for Jeopardy! (including the "GOAT" event) in 2020... I wonder if the Sullivan library found the Aug 7th 1955 episode which also featured Bill Haley and his Comets...

I consider the $600 clue from GOAT to be as close as you can get as a perfect J! clue: take a basic trivia question but wrap it in a magnificent story

"In 1968 I loaned this (photo shown) fellow Canadian the money for a plane ticket from London to L.A. so he could audition for the movie role that would change his life; the movie was 'M*A*S*H'--& I got my money back"

In my last show in New York, I worked with the actress who had played Miranda to his Prospero at Stratford. She became very close to him (not that way), and told me that he lied about his age, so I assume he was actually around 93. At a certain point, it doesn't seem like it would matter, but that's showbiz.
