It's the Judge John Hodgman podcast, and I am Bail of Jesse Thorne.

With me is Judge John Hodgman.

This week's episode recorded live in Vancouver, British Columbia.

We talked about a family book club.

We talked about cutting fingernails.

We talked about cutting sandwiches.

And we talked about what to name your curling broom, very Canadian.

And when we talk about the very best way to cut a sandwich, we referenced some testimony

from some expert witnesses. Make sure to listen all the way to the end of the episode to hear

these voice memos from Deb Perilman and Kenji Lopez-Alt, our friends from the recipe podcast.

Let's go to the stage at the Hollywood Theater in Vancouver.

People of Vancouver, you asked us for live justice, and we are here to deliver it.

The court of Judge John Hodgman is now in session.

Thank you. The court of Judge John Hodgman is now in session. Please welcome to the stage, Adam and Catherine.

Adam brings the case against his wife, Catherine.

Catherine bought her family Moby Dick for Christmas

with the intention of starting a family book club.

No one in the family read the book

except for Adam.

Catherine never even started it.

Adam is here for literary justice.

Please rise as Judge John Hodgman enters the courtroom.
