Did Alex Trebek call this 'nerd' a 'loser' on Jeopardy?

"Jeopardy!" host Alex Trebek had some blunt words on Wednesday's episode for a contestant who listens to "nerdcore" hip-hop.

Susan Cole, a legislative librarian from Bowie, Maryland, explained to Trebek what nerdcore was by saying:


Trebek wasted no time in paraphrasing for her in his classic deadpan tone, "Losers, in other words."



Even Cole had to smile at his cold-blooded delivery as audience members chuckled.

Despite a laugh at her expense, Cole ended up having a great show – she finished with $22,600, destroying her competition.
