Games That Jonathan and Seth Play

40:36 – Seth says if you take a calendar month and you have been to a strip club three times in that entire month, that is your spot, then asks Jah, “How many times have you been to Plan B in January?” Jah can’t think of the exact number, then says “maybe around 8 or 9 times.” Seth says that’s “Persian style.” Jah says they all know him by name there. His drink there is Maker’s Mark and Ginger Ale
51:01 – Jah used to put Vicks Vapor Rub under his nose or in a painter’s mask while on ecstacy so he could breathe it in and make him feel like he was breathing through his eyeballs. He would also put Tiger Balm under his nose and one time thought it would be a good idea to put it under his eyes – but it was a terrible mistake (Episode 069, 32:46)
43:53 – We don’t have TCAP anymore, and Seth thinks the peeds must be on a tear since the show isn’t on anymore. He is mad at how much good TV they’ve missed.
5:19 – Seth bought a Los Angeles Times on Monday, and was getting his money out and the cashier said “Eighty-one cents.” The second he said it, Seth’s head went to the corner of the paper and the price said .75 intead of .50 and muttered “motherfuckers. The cashier replied “Yeah…”

6:29 – Seth had chicken pox when he was younger, and Jonathan had them at age 11. He got them the week his class was taking a trip to Catalina. He was so excited about going on the trip and got the pox so bad, and was pretty bummed when he couldn’t go.
8:35 – Seth got a traffic violation this week and hands it to Jonathan to read: VIOLATION 127315: DRIVER NOT WEARING SEATBELT. Another violation: DRIVER PASSED NUMEROUS VEHICLES IN THE PARKING LANE. Seth is mad that he received this violation because he drove his Plymouth Sundance through that lane and pulled into the parking lot off of the parking lane in Western because there weren’t any cars there, and he pulled in to fill up his bottles of Alps Drinking Water. The cop walks up as Seth is pulling into the lane and unbuckling his seatbelt to reach for some change. Seth explains what he was doing and the cop goes “nice try.” Cop tells Seth he can’t pass cars on the right, Seth explains he was pulling in to the lot and shows him the empty water bottle. Cop asks for license and registration and insurance, and as the cop is walking away Seth goes “read the sticker on the back of my car.” The sticker says UYD: SEATBELTS. Cop comes back and hands Seth the ticket. Instead of pulling into the lot, Seth has to sit in bumper-to-bumper traffic to move six car lengths to make a right, pulls into the drive, gets out of his car, then stands and stares at the cop. Jah recommends that Seth fight the ticket
17:24 – When Seth got pulled over, he had some BS in his car, and sitting on top of everything in the bag were two medicated gingerbread cookies. Seth was worried that he would be discovered by the cop because it was hot outside and it would draw the aromas out. He was going to see his hairdresser, Luis, and wanted to share
18:55 – Seth went to a Christmas party with a Secret Santa exchange and had forgotten to bring a gift, so he goes back to the Sundance, gets a Starbucks bag and puts in a Bible and a pregnancy test. He walks upstairs, drops the bag and is standing outside and hears full commotion. The guy who got it was sort of not pleased whereas everyone else was loving it. The Bible had an inscription inside it TO OUR SON BILLY… from like 1989.
23:37 – Seth receives foreign royalties for a little film he was in called Crossroads. He receives $0.90 from Denmark, $8.16 from Germany and another $2.93 from Germany – a total gross of $11.99. Seth: “Thank you, Britney.”

They arrested him after he contacted them to complain about a broken agreement. He had agreed to marry off his 14-year-old daughter to an 18-year-old groom. For this he would receive in exchange $16,000, 100 cases of beer and several cases of meat. The groom failed to come up with the entire dowery and Martinez went to the cops to complain
15:43 – The classic 1970s book, “The Joy of Sex,” has gotten a modern makeover for the new edition. The men and women featured in photos of the book will have decidedly less hair than their older counterparts.

Jah remembers going through that book a couple of times
21:03 – A lawyer for the Swedish hip-hop artist who killed a pedestrian in Hollywood (Episode 143, 28:50) has invoked the movie Crash in court to ask for a reduction of his client’s $1 million bail. He says “The fatal encounter in a Hollywood crosswalk is a prime example of the Academy Award-winning film’s thesis that random interactions of diverse people in a city as frenetic as Los Angeles can lead to disastrous consequences.”
24:43 – One out of every 100 Americans is currently being stalked. Definition of stalk: Two separate occasions by the same person of unwanted contact more than once in a week
30:38 – Chrysler is going to stop producing the PT Cruiser this summer. Seth is angered by this because sometimes all he wants to do is go in his PT Cruiser, get a frozen yogurt, pick up a Laserdisc and go home. Jah: “I loved Laserdiscs. I was so down with them.”

39:00 – Jah reads a factoid titled “Strip Club Etiquette” from a periodical. What a strip club isn’t: “First, a strip club is a place to watch live naked girls disrobe. It is not a place to pick up girls or get laid. Nor is it a great place to masturbate or take a first date. The girls are there to make money, period, so if one can convince you she’ll put out to part you and copious amounts of cash, she will put in an Oscar-worthy performance to do so.” Seth calls Jah a strip club aficianado, but Jah says he’s more of an intermediary.
57:03 – Jah says that with 150 episodes up, it’s safe to see we are ultra-close to having the new UYD home up on the internet. He said Nick and Weck and Josiah and Jeff are vehemently working on different aspects of the show to put it out there on the etherweb

Use of the product on kids that young was found to increase mucus production and inflammation. Studies found no health benefits for people of any age
32:15 – Jah says Jogger will do a Laserdisc-only release that will pay off well for them
33:51 – At the beginning of the school year Seth boldly predicted that there would be much more girls taking provocative photos of themselves, and he was reading this week of a couple instances of this occurring
27:38 – Seth reads the full synopsis of the movie Seven Pounds, after which he and Jah both laugh and hammer the film for ever being made
37:01 – Jah demands that no one invite him over to their inauguration party. He’s already been invited to 5 parties thus far. “Guess what guys, we’re done with that now. We’re finished for a long time. Let him go and disappear and do some shit. We don’t need to throw another party.”
