Harvey Silikovitz, who might be the first Jeopardy! contestant to compete with Parkinson's disease, got to finally live his dream on Monday's episode after auditioning numerous times since 2001. “I am hoping that just the fact that someone with Parkinson’s is on for the first time in the history of this show, it would be inspiring to them when they see me winning,” Silikovitz tells The Ringer. “Your life isn’t over when you get this diagnosis.”
