Louis C.K. can now add "Jeopardy" winner to his list of accolades.

The comedian appeared on the long-running game show Wednesday alongside CNN anchor Kate Bolduan and Washington Post journalist Jonathan Capehart.

Despite a rough start that saw him briefly hold a negative score, C.K. made a huge comback and successfully trounced both reporters.

C.K. was there to raise money for the Fistula Foundation. A fistula is "a hole between the vagina and rectum or bladder that is caused by prolonged obstructed labor, leaving a woman incontinent of urine or feces or both," according to the Foundation's website.

Trebek praised the celebrity contestant for raising money for a lesser known charity. "That's why I'm here," he replied.
