Gentlemen of our most prestigious Court of Athens, may I praise your patience and diligence in the presentation of the prosecution.

I, Melita, stand before you unequivocally convinced that the criminal is guilty as charged.

The hideous snub-nosed Socrates is charged with corrupting the young men of Athens, with his rhetoric and poisonous oratory skill and undeniable fact.

Socrates also stands before you charge with denying the gods, their authority and challenging the beliefs of every genuine Athenian.

He insults our great city, with his relentless, irritating presence, a fly in great need of a spider.

He shows no signs of remorse for his conduct or apology for his crimes, a true reflection of his guilt.

I beg you, loyal judicators of Athens, listen to his words, hear him

twist them to his own malevolent purpose. Look into his eyes, see his lack of contrition. He says

he knows nothing. I know at least one thing. The evidence presented by the prosecution proves

Socrates is guilty, and he should accept the judgment of the Athenian court.

Gentlemen, I rest my case.

Hello and welcome to episode 71 of the month's I'm the unapologetic Jack Symes and I'm joined once again by the man on a mission from God, Mr. Andrew Horton.

Hello!

And the horse corrupting is Ralee Marley. Hello? Ho Mali hello ho ho it's getting close to Christmas any plans for the festive season gentlemen it's about two or three days away are those festive beards are they just in the spirit of Socrates I'm looking forward to spending time with my family I hope there's some snow because it's never snow.

But if there is, I'm really forward to playing in snow. And yeah, just it's a time to eat,

drink and be merry. Unlike Socrates. I look forward to eating my vegan Christmas dinner

while annoying my family.

The last couple of years we've said,

we've advertised it as a pan-sicast Christmas special.

I remember one year.

We always do Nietzsche, don't we at Christmas? We always do Nietzsche.

So we've got Socrates this time.
