acidentally posted this on the parenting thread LOLZ
that ep187 story about the woman who had the dinner party and was flirting with a dude she hadn't met before as everyone was leaving. After everyone had left she hears a noise from outside and looks to the side kitchen door.(in Seth's high pitched girl voice)"AJ??"(in Johnathon's super low crazy person voice)"I FORGOT TO RAPE YOU"justdying― Uncle Terry's Tampon Tea (sunny successor), Wednesday, March 7, 2012 5:45 PM (Yesterday) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

Seth's early steez of "So you know who I saw giggling and hi-fiving at the Pinkberry the other day (insert random actors)" wears on me a lot as I listen to these early episodes...but the one thing that makes it hilarious is how Jah is always just so confused by WHO the actors are.

I'm (I think) 30 episodes in and he does it every week. It's kinda weird.

most of them have to be made up, but you really dont know-- this is one reason why seth is a comic genius imo

I mean, the pairings are funny but it starts to come off as weird homo fixation, at least in my mind. I dunno. Maybe I'm overthinking it, lol

the way l.a. residents are fascinated w/celebrities is compelling and unique

there's def a conversation to be had re: how close they teeter towards/flirt with homophobic/sexist/racist shit while rarely every actually going there
― ⚓ (gr8080), Friday, 9 March 2012 21:49 (twelve years ago) link
and yeah the celebrity fixation is so weird and hilarious
i love hearing seth talk about how he "takes it to" celebs
― ⚓ (gr8080), Friday, 9 March 2012 21:52 (twelve years ago) link
feel like in l.a. everyone has just given up and its considered totally ok and fine to be obsessed w/celebrities
― lag∞n, Friday, 9 March 2012 21:53 (twelve years ago) link
which is kinda beautiful and honest in its own way

ep 97 has maybe my favorite seth story ever (havent gotten to the restaurant story yet) about his mom being in town and how hard he was working to "get her a celeb" when they finally bump in to james spader at a news stand
― ⚓ (gr8080), Friday, 9 March 2012 21:55 (twelve years ago) link
well when you think about it, the town is FULL of celebs. I mean it's like talking about people who live in your hometown, in a way. Except they're all famous. Maybe it's that *we* ascribe more to celebs than they do? Like we think they're name dropping and they're just talking about, yknow, people. LA's fucking weird.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 9 March 2012 22:03 (twelve years ago) link
ugh 'town'. LA = city.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 9 March 2012 22:04 (twelve years ago) link
i think also it has to do w/that so many people work in the industry so theyve like been given permission to care abt that shit except that they care abt it in the most obviously unprofessional way

also for dudes like seth who want to be celebs theres this whole painful aspirational thing that can only really be laughed off by just giving into the loathsome obsession

that brings up another thing i've been thinking about as i am working through the archives in reverse order-- somewhere between episodes 50 and 100 this kind of pained resentment pops up a few times that UYD was't yet on satellite radio or doing anything that will make them money
they def seem to have made peace w/ it now, and maybe the increase in live shows has something to do with that
― ⚓ (gr8080), Friday, 9 March 2012 22:13 (twelve years ago) link
I noticed a few mentions of that in some early teens/20's episodes too. That satellite radio was maybe the 'we've made it' endgame. Which is kind of lol now, but god when you hear them talking about how there's no funny podcasts, and when they did some of their podcast chart lists, it's like oh fuck I remember it really WAS a wasteland.
I hate that 2006 *is* a long time ago, because in my old-person brain it was just last year.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 9 March 2012 22:15 (twelve years ago) link
have a lot of people gone from podcast to satellite radio
― lag∞n, Friday, 9 March 2012 22:16 (twelve years ago) link
i listened to satellite radio for the first time in years last week (via rental car) and holy shit what a world

I knew abt Howard Stern but did not know that Playboy and SPICE each have their own channel

Does Bob Dylan still have his station?

ive only ever experienced satellite radio via rental car too but yeah it is amazing
― lag∞n, Friday, 9 March 2012 22:19 (twelve years ago) link
what the hell would Playboy Satellite Radio sound like
lots of moaning and squishing noises? erotic radio plays? ginuwine?
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 9 March 2012 22:20 (twelve years ago) link
playboy radio is kind of like a format that is 20% UYD and 80% Howard Stern done by boring porn stars who arent as interesting or funny as they think they are
― ⚓ (gr8080), Friday, 9 March 2012 22:22 (twelve years ago) link
and they take live calls from listeners
― ⚓ (gr8080), Friday, 9 March 2012 22:23 (twelve years ago) link
occasionally they describe how each other looks/what theyre wearing
sometimes there is spanking
zzzzz

the weirdest station i found was one that played old radio dramas complete w/the contemporaneous commercials
― lag∞n, Friday, 9 March 2012 22:24 (twelve years ago) link
all the diff types of metal stations were p interesting too
the best part is uncensored hip hop stations imo
― ⚓ (gr8080), Friday, 9 March 2012 22:26 (twelve years ago) link
i could still see a station that featured nu-podcasty programming being successful tho

Sacramento radio sucks so hard, we considered switching to xm a few years back
