Welcome to the Judge John Hodgman podcast. I'm Bale of Jesse Thorn. This week we're

in the Judge's chambers clearing the docket with me as always. A true legend of the

fake judicial field. Judge John Hodgman.

Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow. Oh hi Jesse how are you?

I do have cat chorus practice going on. No I'm just just cleaning up my chambers after my

New Year's party and remembering what a great time I had with all those cats.

Meow meow meow meow. They're really good at singing old things I.

Was it just you and the cats sir? Yeah just me and some cats.

Okay did you like lay a trail of cat food into your chambers and trap them there or

these friends of yours? No I went on Instagram and I contacted the most famous cats in the area.

Just just regionally though. Yeah that's right and I and I paid their owners to let me have a

New Year's Eve party on my chambers with just me and some of the most famous cats of Instagram.

It was very swank I have to say. I mean it sounds swank were there cocktails, bleemies?

Just for me. Okay got it for me. It's not good for cats. Not cats can eat bleemies.

Cats can eat caviar. I learned it the hard way. Got it. So now I've got 30 gallons of caviar.

I got to get rid of. Now it's misleading you would think that cats would be able to eat caviar.

If only because you imagine how heathcliff would eat those whole fish by just dipping them into

his mouth and then pulling out the skeleton. Yeah no no I'm not saying that caviar is poison to

cats. It's just they're terrible with little pancakes a little bleemies. Got it because they don't

have thumbs and they can't use the tiny spoons. The tiny spoons. Yeah they can't use the tiny

spoons. Got it. They can't use those tiny mother of pearl spoons. That'd be a lesson to you judge

John Hodgman listeners New Year's resolution. Stop using metal spoons on your caviar it'll ruin it.
