It's the Judge John Hodgman podcast.

I am bailiff, Jesse Thorne, and with me, of course, Judge John Hodgman.

This week's Judge John Hodgman episode was recorded live on stage in Portland, Oregon.

A lot of listeners who were there for that moment have been waiting for this episode to come out because it was a Bangor.

And I'm not talking about Bangor, Maine or Portland, Maine. I'm talking about Portland, Oregon,

where we talked about Keish recipes, screen time, whether or not it's acceptable to give your loved

one a bouquet of asparagus? Let's go to the stage at Revolution Hall in Portland, Oregon.

People of Portland, you asked us for live justice, and we are here to deliver it.

The court of Judge John Hodgman is now in session.

Thank you. is now in session. Please welcome to the stage, Mary and Steve.

Mary brings the case against her husband, Steve.

Steve tries to keep their kids entertained personally on cross-country flights.

If all else fails, then he offers screen time.

Mary says, why bother?

Just give them the iPad now and let them watch as many dang movies as they want.

Please rise as Judge John Hodgman enters the courtroom.

Mary and Stephen may be seated. Welcome to my courtroom.

Mary, you think that your kids should have unlimited screen time on aeroplanes.

Show after show after show.

Okay.

I appreciate your owning it.

Yeah.
