Six weeks after beloved Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek informed fans he had stage 4 pancreatic cancer, he's once again checked in with fans. He thanked everyone for all of their well-wishes and says he's feeling pretty good. 

The video was posted Wednesday afternoon in coordination with the wrap-up of filming on the game show's 35th (!) season. 

In the quick clip, Trebek says, "I wanted once again to thank you for your continuing messages of encouragement and support, particularly the many cards I've received from young people. I'm touched beyond words."

He also address rumors regarding his health and promises to be back for the next season this fall: "Despite what you may have heard, I'm feeling good, I'm continuing with my therapy, and [the show's staff] is already working on our next season... So I look forward to seeing you once again in September with all kinds of good stuff." Read more...

      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
