Johnny Gilbert, the announcer on Jeopardy! (This – is – Jeopardy!), is 97 years old, going on 98.
I sort of can't believe it.
He has been doing voice recordings for the daily shows from a studio in his home for several years. According to his Wikipedia page, they're swapped in after the shows are taped, with another announcer doing the live voice within the studio.
Gilbert has been with the show since 1984 when it was relaunched with Alex Trebek as host.
