What were things they would do? I hear people mention they were creepy in this thread but never have seen an example.

It was basically a pile of people trying to be Seth, except they weren't funny, there was no Jonathan to balance them, and there were no topic cards for them to discuss.

If I worked there I'd have freaked out long ago and smeared toner all over my naked body, flopping around to spell out "I TOLD YOU SO!" on the carpet until campus security could drag me away.

It was a weird little circlejerk where everyone posted in character as Seth, creepy isn't really the right word but it was bad enough that they canned it without mention. I vaguely remember Jonathan calling out the people on the forums for being wack and cliquey at some point, maybe in the 100s?

Some of the names are obviously tryhard, but the idea of creating dating website usernames based on references to UYD works really well.

People who were at the Improv show, what was going on when I think they were about to say "Speaking of down south----I have no clue what's going on here, I'm about to do my Zach Galifianakis on the piano over here"? I also couldn't pick up on what was going on when Jah mentioned the chime-ins.

I never set out to be weird. It was always other people who called me weird.

There was a mini-grand piano onstage that Seth was leaning on, and he put some of his notecards on it. The reference to Zach Galifianakis is to his "Live at the Purple Onion" DVD, where Zach tells jokes while playing a piano.

This study about people's racial biases felt very much like UYD material to me, particularly the sentence 'Researchers found they could temporarily reduce people’s prejudices by showing them pictures of black icons like Martin Luther King Jr. in conjunction with infamous white villains like Jeffrey Dahmer'.

Yeah, they were just shuffling things around at the start since it was kind of a small stage.

The second-generation Pontiac Sunbird, introduced by the automaker for the 1982 model year as the J2000, was built to be an inexpensive and fuel-efficient front-wheel-drive commuter car capable of seating five.

Holy :lol: at J-Dawg trying to pronounce "Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad" in Episode 217 around 14:40. He keeps trying to get it, but just gets worse as he's put on the spot with Seth poking fun at him a little bit. He ends up just settling on "Amenijad".

Great show guys, good work all around. I really liked how piss poor the audio quality was. Glad to hear they are performing at the LA podcast festival or whatever.

The audio quality is really one of the best not talked about qualities of UYD. Jonathan brings the heat when it comes to getting good sound quality almost always. That one live show with the bad audio would've passed for a perfectly normal episode for some other podcasts.

Yes except for the Sidney Brothel Buster which was a great and perfectly UYD story.

The guest host (the American guy) is pretty good on other stuff. I think he either was one of the organizers of the LA podcast festival or helped get UYD to actually come out to it.

He does a podcast called The Dollop now that is kinda like long-form historical UYD; he tells the story of some really American American poo poo from history (like the craze of individual dudes trying to conquer Latin American countries, or the sex cult that poisoned salad bars so they could win a local election) with a cohost reacting to it.

Jah had a band called Jogger with Amir so it's no surprise that he's really savvy on the sound side of things. It's actually kind of incredible how both he and Seth's strengths overlap to perfectly cover the others' weaknesses. I think that's why the podcast has been going on for almost 450 episodes now.

Jogger is still a band as far as I know. Their debut album is aces, but took them a very long time to record. Expect a second album in the next 3-4 years.

i'd imagine with amir touring with julian casablancas full time that jogger is fully on the backburner. 433 was an amazing episode. i'm listening backwards as i pack for a move, and man were the 260s-290s really golden.
