Summary

This week, we hear a dispute between two comedy writers: Andy Wood (Bridgetown Comedy Festival, Probably Science podcast) and Chip Pope (LOPEZ, It Happened in Hollywood podcast)! Andy brings the case against his friend, Chip. Andy accidentally backed into Chip's car, causing damage to the door. Andy agreed to fully cover the cost of the repair. But before Chip could get the door fixed, Chip was in another car accident that caused larger damage to the door. Andy says that because of the second accident Chip should now split the insurance deductible with him. Chip disagrees. Who’s right? Who’s wrong?

Chip's car, causing damage to the door. Andy agreed to fully cover the cost of the repair.

rise as Judge John Hodgeman enters the courtroom and presents an obscure cultural reference.

Even though I was alone, I was really happy for time. It's like that book I read in ninth grade

that said, it is a far, far better thing doing stuff for other people. Bail of Jesse Thorn,

swear them in. Andy Chip, please rise and raise your right hands. Do swear to tell the truth,

1:10.2

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

1:17.8

to abide by Judge John Hodgeman's ruling despite the fact that his car is missing a door,

1:23.2

just like my little league coach, Tim. Yes, I do. Yes, see. Yes, I do.

1:46.8

It was like a Mercury Grand Marquis or something like that, like a 76 Mercury Grand Marquis,

1:51.9

a classic missing door car. Yeah, yeah. That's an unapproved mod for a Mercury marquee.

1:58.8

I think like a Dotson Honeybee could also be missing a door, but it's not like it had a net.

2:04.9

It wasn't like a stock car. It just a door at some point had come off the car and it continued to

2:12.8

drive it. Yeah, right. Exactly. He used to put a ping pong paddle in a sock and make us field with
