Welcome to the Judge John Hodgman podcast. I'm guest Balif, your favorite Jean Grey

0:08.2

filling in for our friend Jesse Thorn. We are in Chambers this week to clear the

0:13.2

docket. Jean Grey. Hi. My favorite Jean Grey. Oh man, mine too. I'm so glad you're

0:20.6

here. My name is John Hodgman. We've met before. Yeah. Yeah. You've been the guest

0:25.3

Balif on this program before. 90 times. And we do. We have a lot of fun together.

0:29.3

Mm-hmm. Right now, you know, we're both miserable. It's New York City. It's hot. I'm miserable

0:34.4

outside, but like this is a great break during the day. I've been in Maine all summer except for

1:37.0

with my 2XL. No, but people will say, Judge John Hodgerman, would you officiate our wedding

1:41.8

because we think it would be hilarious if you would do it. And I always say your wedding is not a

1:46.0

joke. It's not a joke. And I don't want that responsibility. It's a real thing to marry a person.

1:52.1

Yeah. Yeah. Or two people, even. Yeah. I'll tell you what everyone. Three, four. If you're going to get

1:57.0

married to yourself, I'll officiate that. If there's anyone out there. I'm sure they are. It's a very
