In a separate tweet, Holzhauer wrote of Richards' ouster as executive producer of Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune: "Do I think Mike Richards’s podcast comments were appropriate for polite society? No. But did he deserve the benefit of the doubt for the job he did running Jeopardy? Also no." In yet another tweet, Holzhauer joked about "The McNear Variant," referring to Claire McNear's Ringer article that led to Richards' losing his hosting and executive producer jobs.
