Welcome to the Judge John Hodgman podcast. I'm Baylor Jesse Thorn. This week, I pledge

a grievance to the flag. Christian brings the case against his wife, Karin. They're

both big fans of a university sports team, and they aren't afraid to show their spirit.

Christian wants to fly their team's flag outside their house on game days, but Karin says

that's one step too far. Who's right? Who's wrong? Only one man can decide. Please rise

as Judge John Hodgman enters and presents the obscure cultural reference. I've had years

of cramped up city life trapped like a duck in a pen. All I know is it's a pity. Life

can't be simple again. Jesse Thorn, Swearman. 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. I do. Do you swear to abide by Judge John Hodgman's

ruling, despite the fact that while he capped in several college sports teams, it was as

a non-scholarship division three player. I do. I do. Very well. Judge Hodgman. I actually

Jesse always dream that I could be small enough to be the coxen on a cruise ship to be the

one that I would not have to do. I love the idea of yelling at the sportsmen all day long.

Just like, do this, do this. And I get a little thing and I get a free ride. I feel like the dream

of being a coxen on a college crew team is the ultimate dream of the preppy Dorcas. Yeah, well,

the ultimate dream of the preppy Dorcas.

Yeah, well, you're welcome.

Welcome to my life.

And I apologize for for mispronouncing

and I should have said,

cox Wayne, cox Wayne is the correct pronunciation.
