Honestly if the were to stop UYD this would be the ep to do it on imho. But Jah, I have to say, your greatest contribution to this world will not be Jogger.

I think Jah is stuck in a pubescent phase of managing the anxiety of aging by believing he isn't 'there' yet. What he doesn't know is when was reborn as a prophet he became there itself.

btw guys, how many episodes do you think they'll do? I think there is a chance they'll stop at 1000.

It frightens me that Jah still has stories up his sleeve.

Also, does anybody remember th episodes where they had ads? I feel it was quite early on and it was weirdly 'product placed' into the conversation a la a Dr Drew.

Those Burger King ads were incredible and any sort of machine learning / AI / "I fed this algorithm 1000 hours of X and asked it to make more of X" story these days is equally fascinating and terrifying to me. They all seem to wind up either completely demented or insanely racist/sexist/homophobic (Microsoft's Tay, that Amazon hiring algorithm that turned out be mad sexist etc.)
Yeah there is this weird effect of the "I fed this algorithm 1000 hours of X and asked it to make more of X" meme and its this.
there are equal parts people who genuinely believe they are real with people who genuinely believe nobody believes they are real. The problem here is that C-Euro is conflating the meme with, I guess, the general trend of brands releasing AIs which then copy the squalled lovely level of conversation that is twitter.

"I have a bone to pick... with this bone that didn't get busted hashtag uydsethromatelli" had me chuckling

so far
-first dry line by seth and i'm smiling
-they have v constant personalities and vocal patterns from 06 to 19. its trippy. i guess we all do. but its weird to hear them so long ago and yet almost exactly the same. less seth yelling
-i'm not looking forward to 'fruits' and 'he's a fruit'
-the volume is super low. ugh.
-the songs are gone. yay. i genuinely enjoy hearing what genre/mood jah has chosen but then skipping until the stardate. does anybody do this?

Sans the casual homophobia, misogyny, transphobia and racism of the early episodes yeah.

But still! Congrats uyd and thank you to this thread for introducing me to what become my favourite podcast a good, uhhhhh god, eight years ago.
e: they should go the classic $5 for a bonus ep a week route i reckon. or even a bonus ep every second week. i know they tried the 2 eps a week and i think it was too much for them. so maybe if they put one behind a paywall and recorded a bunch of backlogs for it then it would work.

Yeah and record a bunch of backlogs. Its what other podcasts do that have run the same 'two a week' situation to overcome burnout.

100% you've changed. Podcasts are like friends in that you outgrow them occasionally. In fact, because their vitality depends on a consistent (stagnant) personality, they seldom outgrow you.
e: also yeah lol at unmarried loner being an insult. I guess you are married now?

Yes and yes its a bit mad. Is there a sundance in gta? I've always wanted to have uyd mp3s playing on a custom radio station and just drive around. I'm 30 and this is one of my main goals in life what is wrong with me

iTunes just pushed an update which set every podcast to limit stored episodes to 3.

Anyone know where I can get access to eps 433 through 531? I was too slow to save those ones.
From my limited googling, it looks like the update switched all users to a default and you can turn it back. I think. I haven't touched mac since the ipod shuffle.

I would advise backing up mp3s for every single UYD episode if you can! its a treat! One thing I like to do is point my GTA custom radio station at my UYD archive.

Jah getting into video games in his 40s kind of sums him up in 2019. A regular trope I adore is Jah explaining his pov on some poo poo and Seth's silence as he struggles to not roast him too badly.

I wonder what their downloads are over the years. Man, I'd love to see that data. I feel they are probably pretty steady; relatively high at the start and now relatively low.

I'm also working through the backlog and the last few months were very good. Especially Seth's rant(s) about Dos Hermanos Mezcal [761], oh my goodness. Also, not sure why, but my life is a little more complete by having heard Seth Romatelli shout "Where the gently caress is Fire Emblem?!" and giving Jah poo poo about playing Smash Bros [758].
Well now you've got me listening to [758] and theres a good moment at 12:50 where they are both reaching for a word to describe Imagine Dragons. And they simultaneously say empthetic.

And when they were 29 and 33 years old. All UYD is good, but the first couple hundred episodes were good. Well, apart from the rampart homophobia.

Oh and my sparkly UYD pin came today! The attachment makes it hang wrong so the words are sideways but I'm still stoked.

Transcribe every single UYD episode. Edit.
Compile into a book. Have them both monologue some reflections and transcribe that. Add some fan illustrations.
Sell for... $30?
This would be cool. Also intense because it would probably be pretty long so they would realistically maybe only transcribe 100 or so fan favourite episodes.

I used to transcribe professionally. If someone wanted to pay me a decent rate to transcribe UYD I would absolutely do it.
Huh cool. In your estimate, roughly how many words would each episode be-ish?
