Beloved Jeopardy! champ Buzzy Cohen reveals the eccentric yet effective training method he developed to prep for the show, and empowers listeners to apply these techniques to train for their own challenges in this one-of-a-kind Audible Original.
Tens of thousands of people take the online qualification exam for Jeopardy! every year, and only 0.4% of these hopefuls will appear on the show. But even after a nine-game winning streak and a victory in the Tournament of Champions, fan favorite Buzzy Cohen maintains that he wasn’t actually the smartest contestant in the bunch - he just “trained smarter" than his competitors with his quirky strategies and obsessive techniques, from wearing suits every day to studying while hanging from a chin-up bar. Once he realized how much could be accomplished with great preparation, he became a prep fanatic - testing his theories on everything from deadlifting to tap dancing.
Here, Buzzy draws on his own experience as well as interviews with other top performers (from musicians and federal prosecutors to glassblowers and competitive coffee brewers) to teach listeners how the unique preparation method he developed can help them train for high-pressure performance situations in their own lives: interviews, exams, professional presentations, speeches, physical challenges, and more.
In Get Ready, Buzzy has created a step-by-step guide to effective prep, proving it’s not innate talent or genetics that creates champions, but the best training. Are you ready to get ready?

This is a highly useful guide to the practice of practice: How to be ready not just when things go well, but when you trip over a shoelace on your way to the piano. Buzzy offers stress-busting tips from his Jeopardy! prep sessions -- such as having questions fired at him while he hangs from a chin-up bar -- and goes beyond the game show stage to the classroom, boardroom and even the courtroom. (He shares prep wisdom from federal prosecutor Andrew Goldstein and standup comedian Michelle Williams, among others.)
Along the way he dishes up details on how dress suits became his secret weapon, how switching pencils helped him perform better on school tests, and why skateboarders are better prepared for failure than the rest of us. It's all about doing your best, but there's a deeper message about life: "Someone who's well prepared tends to have more fun." Amen! Warmly recommended.
