Welcome to the Judge John Hodgman podcast. I'm bailiff Jesse Thorne, and with me is Judge John Hodgman.

Hey, we have a very special episode this week recorded just recently on the very first stop of our Judge John Hodgman road court tour.

It was in New York City where we had a great time bringing justice to the city winery on the west side, didn't

we, Jesse? We had cases involving engagements gone wrong, toilet paper hoarding, Pringles,

big Pringles case, biggest Pringles case in the history of our show. And we had very special

guests, Stuart Wellington and Dan McCoy from the flop house.

If you want to know what wine goes with Pringles, you're going to want to listen to this whole episode. Meanwhile, the road court is taking a break for the holidays through the end of the

year, but we will be back soon to bring justice to the Pacific Northwest and West Coast

at the end of January and the beginning of February.

So if you like what you are hearing today, remember, we don't release the full live show

experience on the podcast. There's a lot of stuff that goes down that you will never hear

unless you go and get your tickets now at maximum fun.org slash events.

Let's go to the stage at City Winery in New York City.

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

The court of Judge John Hodgman is now in session.

Let's bring out our first set of litigants.

Please welcome to the stage, Doug and Viola.

Tonight's case, I now pronounce you Roshaman and wife.

Doug brings the case against his wife.

Viola, Viola and Doug have been married for 17 years,

and yet Viola says that Doug never proposed to her.

But Doug vows, I did.
