TuneIn, the world's leader in live audio, announced today in collaboration with Sony Pictures Television that fans can stream three "Champions Wildcard Play-In Games" exclusively on TuneIn for free. The winners of the Wildcard Play-In Games will advance to the Season 39 Champions Wildcard competition, in which every contestant who won one or two games last season will compete for a chance to play in the highly anticipated 2024 Tournament of Champions. These will be the first official Jeopardy! episodes to be presented exclusively in an audio format.

The Wildcard Play-In Games feature nine single-day champions from Season 39 who are competing for one of three spots in Champions Wildcard. The Play-In Games will air in two parts, premiering ad-free on TuneIn on the following dates, and will be available On Demand immediately after the episodes live stream:

  • Play-In Games 1 & 2: Friday, January 12 at 8 p.m. ET

  • Play-In Game 3: Friday, February 2 at 8 p.m. ET

"The Tournament of Champions is the most prestigious Jeopardy! competition in syndication and beloved by fans," said Sally Umsted, Vice President of Consumer Products and Licensing for Sony Pictures Television. "By partnering with TuneIn, we can let fans experience even more of the action in the lead-up to Champions Wildcard, which will decide which players ultimately complete the Tournament of Champions field. It's packed full of excitement that we know fans of the show will enjoy while they wait for the next tournament."
