Can we have some more "if you like uyd then you might like..." podcast recommendations?

I listened to quite a few episodes of You Look Nice Today, and they seem like great guys and everything but they're just nowhere near as funny as Seth.

You might like "Who Charted?" on Earwolf. Howard Kremer has sort of a Seth kind of vibe, and he has a great repertoire with his co-host Kulap.

This is one of the craziest comparisons I've ever heard

Well, they're both vegetarians and they have a tendency to make up words. That's about it, I guess.

Also I meant to say "repartee" instead of "repertoire."

I don't really eat foods unless it comes in a pouch and somewhere on it, it says "holla".

I never paid any mind to the part of the front page that says "Don't Sleep on These Links" but today I realized they're all relevant to the current episode. That's where I found that pic. (I love how she's not looking anywhere near the soup.)

I really, really, really miss these. Can't quite put my finger on why - I don't care much about celebrities and I didn't know most of the names Seth dropped. I think part of it was the saturation, maybe; I kept imagining this one Starbucks on Larchmont just packed with B-listers making out. Hey, that's a crazy coffee shop you've got going. Are you okay? Do you need... help?

I love these, too, because they establish Seth as a crazy gossip type. Maybe my favorite one was, "I saw Marilu Henner at LAX again. She remembered me." (The joke being that Marilu Henner has hyperthymesia)

Check out the UYD wikipedia entry for a cool Wednesday adventure, and be sure to click those external links. Will you get there before someone ruins the fun? Only time will tell. Ganbare.

In case it gets edited, the link to Jogger's Myspace page goes to Smash Mouth, and the link to Seth's IMDb page goes to Wesley Snipes.

I think the wiki vandalisms are usually pretty terrible, though I did enjoy this recent change:

quote:

Jonathan Larroquette is the son of actor John Larroquette.[4] He is part of a musical duo called "Jogger" with his adorable friend Amir Yaghmai.[5]
Seth Romatelli is an actor from Haverhill, MA.[6] Seth was featured in the movie Crossroads with then-girlfriend Britney Spears.

Let's all just have some baseless speculation for the next page or so

Jonathan leaves permanently to focus more on Jogger, Seth moves back to Haverhill to start a new podcast, "The Seth and Marcia Hour."

Agreed, I love the album but it took them so long to make it, I don't know when (if ever) to expect another. What does Jonathan do for money these days? I know he used to work in a pet store.

I get the impression that Jonathan is literally a 30-something Jeff Lebowski

Thank you so much for this. I listened to the first bit of it, and I forgot about so many great things. Like a fan uploading a fake Craigslist personal of Jonathan and then Jonathan getting stalked at Whole Foods. God, so great.

Listening to old episodes; is that while stuff about them meeting Gertrude Banes true? Initially thought it was one of their jokes but they seem serious. I remember wondering this when the episode was released.

I assume it is, but I don't think we ever got that picture they supposedly got with her, so who knows?

I'll be there! Driving up from NY.

Question for anyone who's been to a live show before: do they do any extra poo poo other than the ~1 hour podcast on stage? Seems kind of short for a live show... maybe they'll do a meet and greet after?

At the Los Angeles show in February of this year, they showed the 5-minute UYD cartoon beforehand, and they were hanging around before and after the show.

I always assume that when Seth says that he had 2 think thin bars and a DMD for dinner he is being serious. I remember him telling a story about going to Taco Bell and getting rice and peas and a carmel apple pie or some poo poo because they were the only Vegan options on the menu and feeling like maybe he is missing the point. Also those apple pies are totally fried in lard.

I remember that gag. It's from ep. 135: Two sides of beans, no sauce or cheese, and a caramel apple empanada from Taco Bell, complemented with a Think Thin bar, strawberry Muscle Milk and a Diet Sunkist from 7-Eleven. Gross, but something I could totally imagine Seth trying once.

Binowru: Feb 15, 2007; I never set out to be weird. It was always other people who called me weird.

As far as the "best stuff" goes you should look up Uhh Yeah Dude's youtube channel where they put up some filmed clips from the ep. 125-130 range. Most of those are golden. Also you can just search "Uhh Yeah Dude" or "UYD" on youtube and find clips uploaded by fans to get an idea of what people consider the best.

But really though, start from episode 1. The show's quality has literally been consistent for its entire run. It's incredible.

How the gently caress does Seth let Jonathan get away with wearing jorts and a tank top on stage? Was it mentioned at all in the show?

Not exactly the first time it's happened, plus Seth lets Jonathan smoke during the in-studio eps all the time, despite the fact it makes Jonathan's voice sound like poo poo. Just one of those things

Binowru: Feb 15, 2007; I never set out to be weird. It was always other people who called me weird.

The whole stretch of eps from 125-130 is maybe the best the show's ever been. I suspect it's because those were the filmed episodes so the guys really brought their A-game, but they're just so, so good.

128 also has my favorite Whole Foods/celebrity encounter story, with Seth finding not just Brad Pitt but the cast of The Hills, followed by Seth and Jah comparing which celebrities they've seen at Whole Foods.

Does anyone remember which episode they go through the list of baby names and Seth goes crazy about a few of them? I remember something along the lines of "Hey. This is Walt, my baby. This is my baby, not my grandfather, named Walt." being part of it, although I'm not sure if Walt was the name.

I know they've done baby names multiple times. Episode 270 sounds like it could possibly be the one your looking for. (Walter is one of the names)

Woah, they namedrop bath salts a year before all this face-eating nonsense of today.

Is there a feed or something that will download a random episode for you to listen to? Listening to them all from #1 sounds so daunting but I want to just pick one out every now and then to listen to, and it's not like there's any sort of continuity to worry about. I guess I could just come up with some random number generator

Let me suggest all the episodes from the year 2008. They're basically the best, and this includes the stretch of episodes that first went up on YouTube, the same clips that got so many (including myself) listening to UYD in the first place.

What is the story behind the Seth's Clips? When did he start doing them? Does he personally edit them together?

I've watched them all and thoroughly enjoyed them.

Seth started doing them in, I think, 2010, basically as an extension of his obsession with TV. He doesn't personally edit them, that would be the guys at 55-Inch, the same guys who made the UYD animation.

I actually just recently finished listening to the last episode of the backlog from when I first started listening to the show. (Basically listening from ep. 1 to 247). Now I'm gonna listen from 247 up to the current ep, and when that happens, I guess I'll swing by Whole Foods to pick up a Muscle Milk and a Think Thin bar, go home and die of a total panny attack.
