Welcome to the Judge John Hodgman podcast. I'm bailiff, Jesse Thorne. It's the second week of

the Max Fund Drive, the very best time of year. Our show exists because folks like you support it.

Memberships start at just $5 a month, and we hope that you will go to maximum fun.org

slash join and become a member or boost or upgrade your membership.

We'll talk more about the Max Fund Drive later on in the program, but for now,

suffice it to say this week, statute of imitations.

Gayla brings the case against her twin sister, Cheska.

Cheska's life ambition is to do a twin-based prank with Cheska.

She says they're missing out on an identical twin right of passage.

But Cheska disagrees.

She's content with her twinness.

And she thinks pranks are mean.

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.

Finish potato salad hungry? This, poto. Dear Cabengo, eat. Hear more Poto? Yeah. Bail of Jesse Thorne, please swear the

litigants in. Cheska and Gala, please rise and raise your right hands. If you swear to tell the

truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you, God or whatever. I do. Or

whatever. They finished their sentences. Do you swear to abide by Judge John Hodgman's ruling,

despite the fact that he is his own identical twin? Yes. Yeah. In a sort of existential form that only

an only child can understand. I absolutely dress like myself every day.

Judge Hodgeman, you may proceed.

Cheska and Gell, you may be seated for an immediate summary judgment in one of your favors.
