Welcome to the Judge John Hodgman podcast. I'm Dale of Jesse Thorne. This week,

aiding in a bed-in. Anne brings the case against her husband, Pete. They both love dressing up in costumes

for their annual holiday card. This year, Pete wants to recreate an iconic photograph of two famous musicians.

This would require Pete to pose in the nude.

Anne says, no thank you.

For some reason, she doesn't want to send her mom a picture of her naked husband.

Who's right, who's wrong, only one can decide.

Please rise as Judge John Hodgman

enters the courtroom and presents an obscure cultural reference. All the really good ideas I ever had

came to me while I was milking a cow. Bailiff, Jesse Thorne, please swear them in.

Anne and Pete, 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?

Yes.

Do you swear to abide by Judge John Hodgman's ruling, despite the fact that he's nude right now?

Yes.

You can only disprove that if you're watching the video, so you should check

out the video. I'm definitely nude under my robes. Judge Hodgman, you may proceed. Anne and Pete,

you may be seated for an immediate summary judgment in one of your favors. Can either of you name

the person who said the words that I quoted? Word for word, no changes were made. In this particular case, because I'm going to ask

Anne first. Go ahead, Anne. I'm going to say, uh, noted famous former farmer, E.B. White.

Noted famous former farmer. Farmer, only because he's dead. E.B. White, Elwyn Brooks White of New York and Maine.
