I like this man. Edit: Actually, and this is rich coming from me and maybe it was the editor, and maybe it was the writing, but it sounds like Trebek jokes about drinking a little too much. Like it really is the only thing he does. I don't know. By the end of the article I was like "Oooh...We're making another joke about drunk driving are we?"He has had two heart attacks but sums up his current exercise regimen as “I drink.”
Ah I felt like the author played it up a lot more than it was there. I have uncles around Trebek's age that are the similar 'home-depot' type guys like that. They make those jokes lightly, but it's never serious. Maybe it's missing tone. Or maybe Trebek is just terrible at making jokes. Either way, it's a really fascinating article to read. You don't think much about someone who's such a fixture in our culture.
