Episode 237 – 27/01/2022 – Alex Jacob

With their deep dive into recent movies and TV shows pushed back a week, James and Joe invite poker pro turned trivia maestro Alex Jacob onto the podcast to talk poker and game shows. Alex is a WSOP and WPT finalist who won the United States Poker Championship in 2006. He later appeared as a contestant on 'Jeopardy!', winning six times and taking down the Tournament of Champions. Meanwhile, long-time #PITE listener and live stream viewer Harley Jones hopes to win a quiz of his own, answering questions about the 2004 Boston Red Sox in this week's edition of 'Superfan vs Stapes'.

Om Podcasten

Every week, the hosts of PokerStars TV (James Hartigan and Joe Stapleton) bring you a behind-the-scenes look at what it's like being two regular folks on the international poker circuit. Told from the perspective of a cranky British dad (Hartigan) and an undateable American bachelor (Stapes), Poker in the Ears is a mostly uncensored take on the world of professional poker. The hosts also regularly call in favours, in the form of guest spots from their big-shot celebrity poker-playing friends. And they routinely hold on-air competitions, providing chances for listeners to join them on tour.
