0:00.0	Welcome to the Judge John Hodgman podcast. I'm Bill of Jesse Thorn. This week's episode recorded live at the
0:09.4	Masonic Lodge at Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles. I'm not sure the listeners understand
0:15.8	this, so I'm just going to say it again. This was recorded in a Masonic Lodge in the middle of a
0:22.1	Hollywood cemetery. Like the most famous cemetery in all of Southern California hasn't it a
0:28.7	Masonic Lodge? Sure. Why wouldn't it? Of course. With thrones and all, is this it? Thrones and all. And in
0:38.0	addition to the throne, a very special guest. I don't know if you ever heard of this person, Jesse Thorn,
0:42.6	Jordan Morse. That's my co-host from the smash hit podcast, Jordan Jesse Go. And folks might know him
0:49.3	from Good Mythical Morning, where he is among other things, Cotton Candy Randy, which I know is your
0:54.5	special interest, John. I am obsessed with Cotton Candy Randy, Jordan Morse's character on Good Mythical

1:36.2	fiance, Sarah. Sarah still sleeps with the tattered remains of her baby blanket. J. Keith finds it upsetting
1:45.4	to see and touch. He calls it the monster. He wants it out of their bed. Sarah wants to keep sleeping
1:55.2	with it. Who's right? Who's wrong? Only one can decide. Please rise as Judge John Hodgman enters
2:01.0	the courtroom and delivers an obscure cultural reference. I was very much in my room with my
2:12.7	Marionette stage, you know, creating these incredibly boring things that I felt were so fascinating
2:18.2	and forcing my relatives to come and charging money for them to see my little productions. If anyone
2:24.4	would have been paying serious attention to my puppet shows, I would have been sent to therapy
2:28.6	very young. Bill, if Jesse Thorne, please swear them in. J. Keith and Sarah, please rise, raise your
