“It was like ‘Alex Trebeck yells at me!'” He told CNN’s Anderson Cooper on “Full Circle” on Monday. “What a thrill!”
Cooper, who said he has been a fan of the show since his high school years, admitted that he too was “flammaxed” around Trebak when he was “celebrity geopardy.” He just wanted to go to lunch with Treback to be in his presence.
Although both men admitted to being starred, it was a sense of humility and both noted in the track.
“Treback was really a perfect host,” Cooper said. “He was smart, he was funny when he was called, he was right, he was so confident he didn’t have to show about it.”
The Marines agreed, adding that Trebec has a way to “make you feel good, even if you sometimes feel stupid.”
And the reach of this show is wider than the competitors. Cooper said the crisis, and its host since 1984, has gone through all the parts to bring people together.
“It is an organization that teaches the value of the pursuit of knowledge and it entertains the pursuit,” he said.
And although “celebrity in danger!” The Marines were responsible for losing one of Cooper’s two appearances during the four appearances on. The show is still bringing them together.
“I still want a match again – someday, someday,” Cooper told the Marines.
