Kim Kardashian West seems to have found her life’s work — trying to help those she feels are wrongly imprisoned.
As you may recall, Kim was instrumental in persuading President Trump to back common-sense prison reform legislation. She also worked to free Alice Marie Johnson from a life sentence.
Now she’s throwing her weight behind the case of Oklahoma man Julius Jones, who’s on death row for a murder he insists he didn’t commit. Kim met with Jones on Monday, and promised to aid his fight for clemency in any way she can.
Jones was convicted of first-degree murder in 2002 but claims that he got a shoddy defense and that the prosecution’s case was thin.
Ken Jennings will be the first guest host of Jeopardy! after the final episode with Alex Trebek airs on Christmas Day.
The second guest host might be 48-year-old comic Dane Cook.

Al Roker returned to the Today show Monday morning, two weeks after prostate cancer surgery. The weatherman told viewers that he felt “good” and that he had “great surgeons” for his five-hour operation on November 9th.
The 66-year-old’s recovery program includes plenty of exercise, which he’s been documenting on social media. Then, he says, “the first week of January, I’ll go and have blood work and hopefully my PSA has dropped considerably. For the next five years, I’ll get tested every six months.”
