There’s nothing better, when reading or listening to a celebrity interview, than those moments when the interviewer stumbles onto one of their subjects’ secret obsessions: Those little things we all have lodged in our heads that will grind any professional, public conversation to a halt in favor of a few minutes of sheer nerding out. Case in point: A recent Variety Awards Circuit podcast interview with Emma Stone, who slams the breaks on discussion of her recent film Poor Things in order to effuse for a bit about her deep love of, and desire to be on, TV game show Jeopardy!.

And not that Celebrity Jeopardy! softball shit, either, Stone is very quick to clarify, politely cutting interviewer Clayton Davis off to make it clear she means The Real Show. “I do not want to be on Celebrity Jeopardy!. I really want to earn my stripes,” Stone says, noting that she watches every episode of the series, marking down which questions she gets right and wrong. (She doesn’t mention her Coryat scores, but we’d be shocked if she didn’t have them on hand.) Stone also states that she takes the yearly online Jeopardy! test every June, dreaming each time of making the cut, and waiting in hope for a response. It is, no fooling, the most enthused she sounds during the whole interview.

And, don’t get us wrong: The rest of the conversation is good, too, as Stone talks about working with Yorgos Lanthimos, the process of becoming Poor Things’ Bella, and her other recent film roles. (Because it’s a film-focused interview, she sadly doesn’t talk about her just-wrapped-up TV series The Curse. Emma Stone’s having a hell of a year, huh?) But none of that can compare to us thinking about what it would be like to land a coveted spot as a Jeopardy! contestant, make the trek out to California for filming—and then see Emma Stone, Oscar winner, as one of your two opponents. You’d die, right? You’d just die.
