Welcome to the Judge John Hodgman podcast. I'm your good time summer sunshine bailiff

Mati Belmati from WRSI and Northampton, Massachusetts in for Jesse Thorn. This week, I want my

NTH TV. Caroline brings the case against her husband, Steve. They cannot agree how many

TVs is too many. Caroline thinks it's best to minimize TV watching and that a single

TV is most appropriate. Steve says it can't hurt to have a few extra screens as long as

you don't go overboard. Who's right? Who's wrong? Only one man can decide. Please rise, as

Judge John Hodgman enters the courtroom and issues the obscure cultural reference.

I'm serious. You'll see. I'm working on my abs. I'm working on me. I'm kicking in.

I'm calm to do do do do do do do do do do do do do do I'm kicking done and

Okay, Summer bailiff Mati Belmati Swares, the man. Caroline and Steve, please raise and raise your right hands

and then put them down on your remote control. DVR, whatever show you could be watching right now.

Now, now raise both your hands like rabbit ear antennae.

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

Like you've seen on law in order, he'll street blues and nightcourt.

So help you, Mr. Television, Milton Burle or whomever?

I do.

I do.

Do you swear to abide by judge John Hodgman's ruling despite the fact that he is on

TV all the time and would likely love to be on multiple screens in your home?

I do.
