At no point during Jennings' run on Jepardy! was he ever asked how he felt about things, only what he knew about things - a major bone of conetention for Stephen.

Jennings countered that he had relied heavily on his gut to make educated guesses to answer many of the questions on the show.

Jennings also revealed that if civilization were ever to fall, he could rely on his trivia knowledge to build a generator, gut a steer and prepare Stephen a dinner.
