Comedy and Wisdom for Our Time
If John Hodgman made the rules instead of god, or whatever, we would all be happier. Listen to this podcast and read Vacationland and Medallion Status, and you will become a better person, especially (but not exclusively) if you are a middle-aged, cis-het, white, weird dad like me. Thank you Judge (and Bailiff).
A wonderful podcast
Thank you JJHO for a light hearted, fun, and sweet podcast. Even though the cases are just for fun, I’m always in awe of how the judge expertly navigates the plaintiff and defendants’ feelings, and I would say >90% of the time comes up with a verdict that both parties are satisfied with. (Fake internet) justice served is very satisfying. I also like being able to see the pieces of evidence on the judge John Hodgman instagram.
The OG podcast for me!
Sometimes things in life don’t do as planned or sometimes you feel overwhelmed by the state of the world and you just need a good honest laugh to push your brain back into a healthier state and this podcast is that for me.
It’s not crude,it’s real , it’s delightful and I’m forever grateful these humans came up with this idea and have continued with it for so long!
We are forever in your debt!
