The only problem is that the music you use for transitions is what I would call ear rape, at the absolute best. Holy poo poo it's obnoxious. I know this was from several pages back, but I can't thank you enough for checking us out. I just put a new one up (usual link, http://thosedamnrosskids.com if any more self-promotion will be tolerated). The music is a sticking point between my brother and I. I'm working on recording something a little less caustic, but what we use right now works as a kind of placeholder. I hope we can keep you around long enough for that. The new You Look Nice Today was amazing. 45 straight minutes of Merlin, Scott, and Sandwich talking about vaginas. Also, I can't thank this thread enough for introducing me to Uhh Yeah Dude.

I just started listening to Uhh Yeah Dude, and I'm not exactly sure what I think yet. I started at episode one. It's strange because one of the dudes is named Seth and he's from north of Boston, so I thought I was listening to my own podcast from the future or something because those are my credentials. And then I noticed he sounds like Crispin Glover doing a Greg Fitzsimmons impression. I'll try to stick it out though, because I didn't love CDR at first and now I listen to almost every episode multiple times.

He does it so well, too. I just started listening to that podcast this past week but I really enjoy it. I've listened to the most recent 5 episodes or something though and he does seem to cover almost the exact same topics with every guest he has. They branch off here and there but he has a couple of the same few talking points. Him and Joey or Ari Shaffir are really good though. Redban tries way too hard I think.

I find him the be the funniest guy on the show, he's such a weird dude and his YouTube page is awesome.

I always wondered what Seth's job is from UYD. He sometimes talks about the people he works with. I imagine it's at least somewhat office based.

Speaking of Car Talk does anyone know if there is any truth to the story Jesse Thorn told on NNF about adding in more laughs in during post processing? Jimmy and Matt react to this story as if it's real, but I honestly can't tell if Jesse is joking or not.

You call in with a question, and then they call you back the afternoon that they're taping. That's why you don't have random callers who are incoherent, hang up, or don't even know what kind of car they drive. If I remember correctly they tape about 90-120 minutes, and it gets edited down to the best calls and the dead spots are removed. A producer feeds them some tech info occasionally. It's actually a pretty good model for a call-in show if you want to avoid all the "turn down your radio" and "longtime listener first time caller" crap.

Yeah, there's an "On the Media" story (rerun . . . last weekend, maybe?) about the use of editing on Public Radio. Pretty fascinating all around.

The last few CDRs mention unwanted attention for the podcast and it hints at some heat the show received about something that Scott won't talk about. Now, I assume that just having Zach G on the show a few weeks ago would bring about a few more listeners that might now have known about the show previously, but did I miss something else? OR is this just Scott being Scott (as in: making up vague stuff for the sake of making up vague stuff).

I think it had to do with the Mel Gibson Hangover 2 thing. Sounds like Zack was against him being in the movie and won the argument.

He was talking about how he's turned down movie roles for moral reasons then goes on:Zach Galifianakis posted:But a movie you’re acting in, you don’t have a lot of control — you just show up and vomit your lines out. I’m not the boss. I’m in a deep protest right now with a movie I’m working on, up in arms about something. But I can’t get the guys to [listen] ... I’m not making any leeway,...It has something to do with a movie I’m working on, yeah. I’ll tell you about it later. It’s very frustrating." The only movie Zach was working on was Hangover 2 and he was upset that Mel Gibson was going to have a cameo. Mel Gibson got fired and CDRR got some press. e:fb

I guess I'm a little confused on how any attention that might have brought him could or would be "unwanted". I could list a dozen obvious reasons why that's completely stupid, though Scott can be a tough guy to read at times and he just might be goofing around about the publicity. He pussyfooted around the whole MTV Awards controversy he was involved in, too.

I just realized Scott Aukerman is Theo Brixton in the It's Insane This Guy's Taint sketch on Mr. Show. I knew he was a writer and performed a bit, but I don't know how I didn't realize he was in one of my favorite bits. For the uninformed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Anm44OEkFFk&has_verified=1

I knew he worked at a dispensary, during one of the shows Jah tries out a strain of weed Seth gives him called "Sexy Seth's Sativa" or something. I've heard a lot of things, and he's revealed some hints throughout the years. He doesn't come in contact with children. He doesn't work mornings (or at least not often) He possibly still works at the video store he met Johnathan in, something he said a little while ago led me to believe that. I don't think he works at an office or anything like that, or they've been able to maintain pretty well that Seth doesn't know how to use computers for the past 5 years.

I just listened to my first Uhh Yeah Dude yesterday, show 243. You all were saying you have to listen to them from the beginning but I keyed into their humor and chemistry immediately, and it was pretty great. Them talking about axe/tag body spray had me in hysterics.

Doesn't matter with you if they hooked you with one show though. It's one of those rare shows that finds its stride right from the beginning.

I don't even know where Jonathan works. It's sort of strange, he tells you so, so much about his weird hosed up life, yet you basically only get to know that he went through a divorce at some point, and that he earlier worked at some upscale pet store.

So Greg Proops has released the first episode of "The Smartest Man in the World," and it's pretty much my new favorite podcast. If you like him and his act, I think you'll love his podcast, since it's pretty much distilled Proops. I've been a major fan of his stuff for a long, long time, and it always seemed obvious to me that he should have a podcast, so I'm pretty psyched he's finally doing it.

Out of curiosity, to the people who think "new UYD" isn't as funny, what do you think has changed from the times when you thought it was funnier? I'm a new-er listener, started somewhere in the early 200's and I've been listening from the beginning while staying caught up on the new ones, and there's no discernible difference to me. Meaning I find them all hilarious.

To me, there's a level of craziness that came with their "To Catch A Predator" recaps that they never really recaptured once the show went off the air. Along with Craig's House, its the Signature UYD bit.

The new Nerdist podcast is out with Kevin Pollak, and from the description Matt and Jonah aren't in it. I don't mind them, but the ones with just Chris/Guest are the best. I also can't tell the difference between Chris and Matt most of the time.

Whoever recommended going back and listening to eps. 120-160 of Uhh Yeah Dude is my hero. Holy poo poo, I laugh like an imbecile. I find myself accidentally using UYD terminology like "grip" in everyday speech. My secret hope is that someone out in the world will recognize it. Also, I toned down the music for this week's "Those drat Ross Kids," and I'm working with a friend to compose an original theme. There's some good taste in podcasts up in this thread, and I want to be responsive to your needs.

Seriously guys, get on the "My Brother, My Brother and Me" wagon before it takes off. The McElroys have just been knocking it out of the park for a good ten weeks or so. Never have I so consistently laughed at EVERY episode of a podcast. There's not been a down episode in so long. I can't get over how quickly this show became amazing.

Too few people talk about Sick & Wrong, and too many people talk about whatever zany character podcast/morning zoo crew radio show/celebrity jacking off podcasts. Sick & Wrong is almost at its fifth anniversary, once a week of quality podcrafting since episode 1 and they do it just for fun, no bullshit subscriptions. As they said, support the indie podcasts and stop downloading George Clooney and Julia Roberts podcast about what they ate for breakfast.
