Since his first win on July 3, the game show connoisseur has racked up a whopping $70,186.

On a popular Reddit forum dedicated to the show hosted by Ken Jennings, 50, a fan was curious to know what brand Isaac was wearing during Thursday’s show.

“I NEED to know the brand of tonight’s shirt,” asked a viewer.

In his responses, Isaac said: “According to the label it is a 1993 UK St Michael shirt.”

Another viewer mentioned how they recognized him from the ABC show The Chase — and Isaac didn’t hold back in his lack of fashion freedom.

“They wouldn’t let me dress like myself on The Chase,” he wrote.

On the game show hosted by Brooke Burns, Isaac went home with $140,000 in 2023, defeating nine-day Jep champion Buzzy Cohen.

Isaac also appeared on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire in 2017 and won $5,000 after not getting the $20,000 question wrong.

FANS LOVE ISAAC

On the same social media forum, Jep viewers only sent positive messages to Isaac.

“Isaac is so much fun to watch,” wrote one.

Another said: “I won’t mind if Isaac sticks around for a while. He’s a very smart and fun guy.”

“I like our 2-day champion Isaac and I hope he becomes the next super champion,” pleaded a third.

“[Isaac is] very cool, and I’m really enjoying watching it [him]”, said another person.

DOING IT FOR FATHER

During Wednesday night’s game, as Ken got to know each competitor better, Isaac was asked about his father, Steve.

Steve was a player during season 2 of Jeopardy in 1985, but unfortunately lost.

“My dad was on Jeopardy! in the ’80s — one of the first years Alex [Trebek] hosted and he lost,” Isaac said.

Since his first win, Isaac Hirsh has earned over $70,000

Alex Trebek hosted Jeopardy from 1984 until his death in 2020.

“Ooh,” Ken replied.

“And we used to tease him about it all the time as a kid,” Isaac joked.

He continued: “I play him ‘I Lost on Jeopardy!’ [and say] ‘It’s about you, dad!'”

Ken joked with Isaac, “So today we’re going to find out how real karma is.”

Having already won three matches, Isaac only needs to win two more to qualify for next year’s Tournament of Champions.
