30:49 – My Child Is A Monkey on NatGeo was pretty awesome, according to Seth. One lady proposed moving to her own island with all other monkid owners. Seth thinks they need to definitely do that and make a reality show about it called Monkey Island. Jah proposes that it be hosted by Gideon Yago (Episode 004, 26:19).
50:21 – Starting Monday, Sept. 13, 2010, it’s 25th and final season of Oprah.
59:07 – Seth was watching Assignment America with Steve Hartman on the CBS Evening News about a 100-year-old geinocologist in Augusta, Ga. He delivered his first baby in 1944 and has delivered approximately 18,000 babies – 70 years of vaginas. Seth wants to know how much the vagina has changed in 70 years, but Jah says it’s fundamentally the same, although more groomed.
38:05 – The Kardashian sisters and the brother, Khloe, appeared on an “infomercial” over the weekend about their skin product, “Perfect Skin.”

4:55 – Seth used to work with a guy at the video store who had never seen Titanic – Ryan Langerude (Episode 019, 55:25). It came out during a conversation with his mother that Jonathan has never seen Easy Rider. Jah says he tried to watch it on Laserdisc once when he was a kid and fell asleep. Seth has never seen The Net.
5:52 – The first movies Seth saw in Los Angeles—in Santa Monica, actually—was a double feature featuring Twins and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.
7:00 – When Seth first came out to L.A. and had dreams, he went to a TCBY to get some fro-yo (Episode 039, 33:17), he saw the palm trees in Santa Monica as a sophomore in high school. He was wearing an OP rigout getting his picture taken by a lifeguard tower and he remembers thinking, “Santa Monica’s so pretty. I wonder if I’ll ever be back?”
11:20 – Seth sent a card to Ms. Lohan at the Lynnwood Jail on behalf of Uhh Yeah Dude. Seth says it was a beautiful card and he wonders if she ever saw it. He let her know they were thinking of her.
12:50 – Seth reminds us that the Pittsburgh Steelers were illegally given the game during Super Bowl XL (Episode 001, 7:35). He wrote a manifesto proving that it was a sham and thought he would have to wait 50 years until the official admitted Seth was correct on his death bed. The guy came out this week and said he has sleepless nights as a result of his blown calls in that game. Seth has sent a copy of the original manifesto with the updated paperwork to the Park Avenue offices of the NFL officials and he also put a UYD sticker in there to let them know it was from them.
22:47 – Jah asks Seth how old he was when he had pubes. Seth doesn’t remember. Seth just remembers being at the beach when he was a kid and asking his father when he would get hair on his armpits. His dad looked like he had a watch on and said, “1:30.” J-dawg remembers vividly the first time cum came out of his dick. Jah was bashing it on an ottoman and discharged all over it, which posed a problem. He was ecstatic, but he can’t remember how old he was – maybe 11 or 12. Jah never had a wet dream in his whole life
7:47 – Eli Broad, a Los Angeles philanthropist who made his fortune in real estate and insurance, and his wife Edith has more than 1,500 works of both modern and contemporary art in his personal collection worth over $5 billion. He is one of the wealthiest people in the world. He has a theater named after him in Santa Monica called the Broad Stage, and they have a black box space called the Eden Theater. The “Under the Radar Series” will feature Uhh Yeah Dude live on Saturday, Oct. 2, 2010 at 7:30 p.m. You can go to thebroadstage.com or call 310-434-3200. Tickets are $22 each plus a $5 handling charge. Jah says Alfred (Daedelus) played there and it is very nice.
14:22 – Blackberry smart phones have officially gotten podcast support through their launch of Blackberry Podcasts. Most phones can download podcasts through Appworld, but the new Blackberry Torch will find it built-in.
26:14 – Stephen Hawking is telling us that we need to abandon earth. In an interview with the website Big Think, he warned that the long-term future of the planet is in outer space. It’s going to be difficult to avoid a disaster in the next 100 years.
42:45 – It took Twitter four years to reach their 10 billionth tweet. It took them 5 months to go from 10 billion tweets to 20 billion tweets. Jah thinks it’s an unnavigatable format, as far as he’s concerned. The only tweets he reads are the ones they make fun of on the show.
47:42 – A U.S. immigrant from China was sentenced to 37 months in prison for trafficking more than 1 million counterfeit Trojan condoms. His name is Jian “Jimmy” Wang. He was sentenced by the U.S. district judge Brian Cogan in Brooklyn. Condoms that were tested from the same batch as Wang’s were found to burst, leak and lacked spermicide. The magnum brands he had were smaller than they should be and the ribbed models had no ribs. Investigators found hundreds of thousands of condoms in the basement of Wang’s Dollar Store.
53:54 – Michael Wayne Edwards Jr., 28, from Maryland, assailed his victims with a bottle filled with semen. It began last November when a woman observed a man following her as she strolled through a Michaels craft store in Washington, D.C. She noticed a gooey substance on her backside and it was later determined to be human semen. It would take almost 8 months for him to strike again. On July 15 police were summoned to a Giant grocery store in Gaithersburg after a woman reported having some sort of foreign substance squirted into her hair. The woman told authorities that she was inside the store shopping when she felt something drip onto her. When she asked the young man behind her in the aisle if he had noticed anything, he acted “flip.” Outside the store, the woman asked a friend if she noticed anything on her. “Yes,” her shopping buddy said, “there’s something nasty on you, and it looks like semen.” The semen-stained shopper then spotted the man she’d talked to earlier in the store. She approached him but she took off. Using surveillance videos and records from the store, investigators soon identified Edwards as the assailant. Footage from the security cameras not only showed him squirting the victims from a hand sanitizer bottle, it also showed him taking a picture of the assault with his cell phone. Forensic tests have already confirmed that the substance Edwards discharged from the bottle was semen. The victim saved her soiled skirt and shirt and DNA testings are pending.
2:38 – Seth wants to know if J-dawg is going to Go The Distance with Drew Barrymore and Justin Long. Seth thinks the only real-life couple that he would want to see in a rom-com is Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith in a remake of Love Story.
20:18 – A new paper just released in the journal Pediatrics suggests that the average age of breast development – marking the onset of puberty in females – is continuing to fall. Twenty-five percent of African American girls, 15% of Latina girls and 10.4% of White/Caucasian girls are starting their breast development at 7 years old.
1:02:03 – State fair goers wait in long lines at state fairs for deep-fried craziness, but will they donate their children’s fingernails, blood droplets for free ride tickets and a string backpack. Genetic researchers at the University of Minnesota hope that the answer is yes. During the first week of the fair, researchers will invite 500 children and their parents to answer health questions, agree to height, weight and blood pressure measurements and provide DNA samples through saliva, blood droplets or fingernail clippings. The ultimate goal of the “gopher kids” is to study and map the genetic makeup of normal healthy children and thereby identify the genetic defects that predict chronic diseases and health problems.
17:25 – Walter Scott’s Personality Parade in PARADE Magazine. Tom Adams in San Diego, Calif., writes: “I heard that Will Ferrell went to USC to become a sports reporter. What happened?” The answer: “I love sports, but it was more fun being funny,” says the actor, 43, currently starring opposite Mark Wahlberg in The Other Guys. “I would call dorms pretending to be from the maintenance office and say, ‘There’s been a chemical spill! Stay in your room!’ or I’d stand outside the cafeteria and yell, ‘The health department has just advised, Do not eat the fish!’”
26:35 – Seth goes off on Stephen Hawking for not doing shit all day and just warning us to leave Earth.
