Do you think he should have stepped down? I know people weren't happy about his role as EP and how he seemed to use that to his advantage to get the hosting job.
I think that all of the indications of him pretty much doing this as a smokescreen and making himself the host is damning enough to make him step down (more so than the stuff from his podcast). Like, it's looking pretty clear that this was the plan all along.
The funny thing is that if he just...took over once filming picked back up (after Trebek's death) and never did the "search for a new host," we wouldn't be in this situation. Instead he did this bad-faith search, and here we are.
The weird thing is that HE REALLY WAS THE BEST CHOICE!
