Episode 71: Probable Cos-Play

Episode 71

15th August 2012

The whole family is going to the Star Wars convention, but only father and son are in costume. Can anyone make Mommy love Star Wars too? Judge John Hodgman presides.

Episode notes

Donald, his wife Jessie, and their son plan to attend a Star Wars fan convention that will comprise their family vacation this year. Donald and their son have been planning and executing costumes to wear for the event. Jessie says she shouldn’t have to wear a costume, since she’s not a big fan herself and she agreed to let the convention double as their family vacation in the first place. Will Jessie have more fun in costume? Or should she be allowed to opt out?
