Welcome to the Judge John Hodgman podcast. I'm Baylif Jesse Thorne. This week, cease and

dethrift. Alex springs the case against his wife Mandy. Alex prefers to buy close second

hand and will buy any item that fits his needs. He recently bought a pair of second hand sneakers

and wears them as his strolling shoes. Mandy thinks they're grandpa shoes and says Alex needs to

think more about his personal image when purchasing clothing. Who's right? Who's wrong? Only one

man can decide. Please rise as Judge John Hodgman enters the courtroom and presents the obscure cultural

reference. Me and my friends, getting in the car, going to drive real fast, but not too far.

Over the bridge and through the woods, if you've got the will, then they've got the goods.

Baylif Jesse, swear them in. Please rise and raise your right hand. Do you swear to tell the truth?

The whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God or whatever. I do. I do.

You swear to abide by Judge John Hodgman's ruling despite the fact that the only clothes he will

dain't wear are made of purest gold. Like that one Indian guy from the news last year.

I do. Very well, Judge Hodgman. Alex Amanda, you may be seated for an immediate summary judgment in

one of yours favors. You heard me quote a piece of culture as I entered the courtroom. Can you name

the piece of culture that I was quoting? Not paraphrasing, but quoting verbatim. Alex, you seem to be saying

um first. Can you? It was a, oh, God, was it that thrift store song? You know that I don't know. No,

I don't know actually. Never mind. I have no idea. You don't have any idea? No. All right.

What did you say, Alex? Is it that thrift store song? You know, you know, that song where he goes

going, you know, it's going to be down the thrift store. I don't know that actual song, but I assume

that would be seem to be for this evening. He was presuming there is only one thrift store song.

That's where that's where you know that one. The one where he says like, I got 20 dollars in

pocket and the literature so fast, like I can't tell what he's saying. I'm going to pop some tags.
