Uhh Yeah Dude is a weekly podcast posted on iTunes every Monday. The show is hosted by Jonathan Larroquette and Seth Romatelli, who are two 30 somethings living in Hollywood. Jonathan is the son of the famous Night Court actor of the same name who has lived in California his entire life. Seth on the other hand is from Massachusetts. The differences between growing up on the different coasts is a topic covered in many episodes and provides lots of comedy. The main comedy however comes from the news that the two men report on. They self describe the show as "Two American Americans Saving America From Herself." Every episode each dude comes with a stack of notes on ridiculous news stories that have happened over the course of the week. The make fun of the people in the stories, but they also try to figure out why it happened. They often take the perspective of the person in the story to great comedic effect as they show how messed up the perspective is. There are also other segments unrelated to news including JAH! nathans poetry and quotes from Craigslist. JAH!nathans poetry has Jonathan reciting his poetry from his glory days writing as a Rastafarian teenager. Quotes from Craigslist include posts from Craigslist of people eliciting sex and shows the odd perversions present in our American Society. Overall, the two men analyze every aspect of American life showing the listeners that its important to reflect on our own society because that's the only way we can save ourselves from ourselves.
