Welcome to the Judge John Hodgman Podcast. I'm bailiff Jesse Thorne. This week,

Convection overturned. Jeff brings the case against his wife Jen.

Their home came with a very unusual

appliance. When they moved in Jen gave Jeff one year to enjoy this device

before removing it from the house.

The year is now up.

Jeff wants to keep it.

He says this contraption is the centerpiece of their living room.

Who's right, who's wrong, only one can decide?

Please rise as Judge John Hodgman entered the courtroom and presents an obscure cultural reference.

I take a nap in the afternoon, I come down for dinner, then I closed a place. To me that's living. Going on

vacation is not living. This is my life. I like to talk to people. We're not

pushing business. We're fine with our regulars, that's good enough for me.

A cray moor le deluge.

Bail of Jesse Thorne, please swear them in.

Jeff and Jen, please rise and raise your right hands.

Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth,

so help you God or whatever?

I do.

Do you swear to abide by Judge John Hodgman's ruling despite the fact that none of his foods rotate?

I do.

Judge Hodgman, you may proceed.
