Amy Schneider, the second-most winning contestant in "Jeopardy!" history, reflected on rising to fame after winning 40 games in a row on the beloved quiz show.

During an interview on the show, Schneider, 44, told "Jeopardy!" co-host and former champion Ken Jennings about her dream to purchase a home with a large enough bathtub to relax in with her wife, Genevieve Davis. 

"That was the gayest thing I did my entire ‘Jeopardy!’ run," Schneider told The Wall Street Journal. "I can’t believe they left that in."

Schneider’s massive earnings were certainly enough to afford a luxury bathtub and much more. 

Her winning streak from November 2021 until January 2022 amassed $1.3 million, and is second only to former champion and current "Jeopardy!" co-host Jennings’ 74-game 2004 run.

Last November, Schneider claimed victory in the "Jeopardy!" Tournament of Champions, winning the $250,000 grand prize.
