Welcome to Seincast, where we discuss everything and nothing about Seinfeld. In this intro episode, we talk a little bit about ourselves, why we love Seinfeld, and how this podcast got started.
Seinfeld premiered on July 5, 1989, and here we are, 25 years later, to discuss the pilot episode, "The Seinfeld Chronicles". In addition, we will cover the early days of Jerry meeting with NBC, teaming up with co-creator Larry David, casting Jason Alexander and Michael Richards as George and Kramer respectively, and how audiences first reacted to the show.
We're discussing the second episode of Seinfeld's first season, "Male Unbonding". Although it originally aired fourth, the episode was second to be written and filmed...plus, it shows up second on our DVDs, so there you go! In addition, we're covering Julia Louis-Dreyfus' addition to the cast as Elaine, Larry David wanting to quit the show (already?), and host Matt's recent visit to Seinfeld Day at a Brooklyn Cyclones game.
"No! No! YOU had wooden teeth! YOU had wooden teeth! I didn't have wooden teeth, you did!" We're discussing the third episode of Seinfeld's first season, "The Stake Out". Although it originally aired second, the episode was third to be written and filmed...plus it shows up third on our DVDs, so deal with it! In addition, we're talking about how the show and characters really start to click, whether drama has a place in sitcoms, and which porn to give to the Seinfeld fan in your life.
Turn off "The Bold and the Beautiful" and stop waiting for the shower to heat up because we're discussing the fourth episode of season one, "The Robbery".
"Wilkenson's got a bite on a new one. The Tramco Corporation. Out of...Springfield, I think. They're about to introduce some sort of a robot butcher." Call off the grape search and roll out your favorite tie because we're discussing the fifth and final episode of the first season, "The Stock Tip"!
"You should just do it like a Band-Aid. One motion...right off!" Don't swallow a fly when you see the runtime for our discussion of the first episode from season two, "The Ex-Girlfriend"!
"Who leaves a country packed with ponies to come to a non-pony country? It doesn't make sense!" Fix a bowl of peas bursting with country-fresh flavor and sprawl out on your carpeted levels for our discussion of the second episode from season two, "The Pony Remark"!
"La puerta esta abierta...LA PUERTA ESTA ABIERTA!" Cook up a little pesto and make sure the door isn't left open because we're discussing the third episode of season two, "The Busboy."
"She doesn't deserve a baby shower. She deserves a baby monsoon. She deserves Rosemary's baby!" Cancel your illegal cable appointment and pour a little Bosco on your shirt because we're discussing the fourth episode of season two, "The Baby Shower"!
"Master of the house, doling out the charm...ready with a handshake and an open palm..." When you're done in the bat'room, pour your favorite drink with lots of ice...you're gonna need it as we discuss the fifth episode of the second season, "The Jacket"!
"Seinfeld...four!" We've got oh, five...ten...make that over 100 minutes discussing (in *excruciating* detail) the sixth episode of season two, "The Chinese Restaurant"!
"I can't drink coffee late at night. It keeps me up." Put on your favorite pair of Dockers and spread out under the lemon tree because we've got a lot to cover in our discussion of the seventh episode from season two, "The Phone Message"! We're also covering the lost Seinfeld episode, which you might have heard about before: "The Bet". What was the episode about? Why was it scrapped after the read-through? How exactly do you solve a problem like Maria? All of these questions shall be answered! Except for the last one.
"Don't insult me, my friend. Remember who you're talking to. No one's a bigger idiot than me." You're all winners!!!...for downloading our discussion of the eighth episode from season two, "The Apartment". We were very excited to discuss the first episode written by Seinfeld legend Peter Mehlman. So what are you waiting for? Lend...no, give us $5000 and get listening!
"Maybe the dingo ate your baby." We're talking nothing but legumes this week! Now, before you call us out on our mistakes (trust us, there's a lot of them), the episode under discussion was produced early in 1991, but got shelved until season three. We still consider it part of the season two family, so let's open our hearts and welcome back the ninth episode, "The Stranded"!
"Just keep making love to that wall, pervert." Not only are we talking about the tenth episode from season two, "The Statue", but also debating whether "Mulaney" is worth your time, what constitutes a big coincidence, and whether Ray looks like Ted Mosby or porn star James Deen (or neither). Maybe a round of Inka-dink would have been simpler.
"I told him I didn't take his Chuckle! I don't eat that gooey crap!" First things first: stop using hot water, get off dairy, and, we can't stress this enough...make sure you were born in August. Once that's taken care of, stretch out on your favorite floor pillows and prepare for some serious healing with our discussion of the eleventh episode from season two, "The Heart Attack."
"I like sports. I could do something in sports." Infidelity. Suicide. Property damage. Drugs. Revenge. It's a barrel of laughs this week with our discussion of the twelfth episode from season two, "The Revenge"!
"Boy, I really liked the two of you much better when you weren't a couple." We're talking a little this, that, and the other with our discussion of the thirteenth and final episode from season two, "The Deal"!
"A man gave me...a massage." It's the start of a new season on Seincast with our discussion of the first episode from season three, "The Note!" And like the show trying out a new opening theme (heeeeeey), we tried new recording software and our voices sound terrible. Apologies for the audio quality this time, we'll be back to normal next week.
"If everyone who was pretentious was in a mental institution...obviously THIS isn't a mental institution." You want the truth?! Well, here it is! We're discussing the second episode of season three, "The Truth", and along the way hopefully pick up on some things you hadn't noticed before. So fix up some yambalas and sambusa, and prepare for the podcast equivalent of a complete rectal examination.
"Two hundred seats on a plane, I gotta wind up next to Yukon Jack and his dog Cujo." Prediction...two guys who contribute nothing to society and just take up space will be discussing the third episode of season three, "The Dog!" Come on down...
"Sure, we're too old to change the world, but what about that kid sitting down, opening a book right now in a branch at the local library and finding drawings of pee-pees and wee-wees on the Cat in the Hat and the Five Chinese Brothers?" Cantstandya not joining us while we discuss the fourth episode from season three, "The Library!" This show must be listened to immediately. No exceptions. Got that, kewpie doll?
"All I said was, 'I like the pen!'" Say 'astronaut' and join us for our discussion of the fifth episode from season three, "The Pen!" Over 90 minutes? Well, the trivia portion always go by fast. We're in the Seinfeld's condo most of the episode. It's like two scenes really. It's like a cup of coffee. It'll go by like *that*!
"There's elevators all over! Everything looks the same. We're like rats in some experiment!" Purple 23...remember that as you join us for our discussion of the sixth episode from season three, "The Parking Garage!" We've got a lot to talk about this week, especially behind the scenes trivia, so let's giddy-up.
"Where are people? You see people? Show me people! THERE ARE NO PEOPLE!" Oh, hello, professor! Pull up a chair, have some franks and beans, and join us for our discussion of the seventh episode from season three, "The Cafe!"
Happy Festivus! Put the Feats of Strength on hold and gather 'round the aluminum pole because we've got a treat for you. On a very special episode of Seincast, Vinnie and Matt speak with Peter Mehlman about his hilarious new book "It Won't Always Be This Great," how he got started writing, and his experience working on 'Seinfeld'.
"Well, we're talking with Elaine Benes, adult film star on the set of her new picture: 'Elaine Does the Upper West Side.'" The Chinese have done it, my friend. The Chinese have done it. We're testing out the eighth episode of season three, "The Tape," and (no surprise) it doesn't stink!
"Well, you're as pretty as any of them. You just need a nose job." Come back to bed, you big hairy ape, and bring back that box of Danish because we're discussing the ninth episode from season three, "The Nose Job!"
"These pretzels are making me thirsty!" Heat up some Yankee beans and liquefy a batch of cookies because we are discussing the tenth episode of season three, "The Alternate Side" (aka Jerry's least favorite episode)!
"I'm going to get right to the point. It has come to my attention that you and the cleaning woman have engaged in sexual intercourse on the desk in your office." Welcome to our discussion of the eleventh episode from season three, "The Red Dot," brought to you by Hennigan's, the scotch that goes down smooth. And afterwards you don't even smell. On this week's show, Vinnie and Matt discuss the reas...boy, this is damn good scotch. I just had three shots and I don't even smell. Imagine, you can walk around drunk all day. That's Hennigan's, the no-smell, no-tell, scotch.

"42nd street. Change for the D and the double R, the 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, the C, K, and F train." You don't have to be heading to a big interview, a lesbian wedding, the courthouse, or Coney Island in order to enjoy our discussion of the thirteenth episode from season three, "The Subway!" But if you make it to the OTB office, put a sawbuck on Captain Nemo in the third at Belmont for us.
"We all want the hand. Hand is tough to get. You gotta get the hand right from the opening." Why go to the park and fly and a kite when you can just pop a PEZ? We've got hand coming out our gloves this week because we're discussing the fourteenth episode from season three, "The Pez Dispenser!" Apologies, Matt had a sore throat this episode from screaming at hecklers all night. The last time he opens for a rodeo.

"Fight for her, Jerry! She's sure as hell fighting for you!" What do you see? A man-child crying out for love? A sexually-depraved miscreant? A parasite? This week, we cover baseball, squiggle art, and "Chapter Two" in our discussion of the twentieth episode from season three, "The Letter!"
"Man, that Michael Jordan is so phony." You always have to know everything that's going on, don't you? If we don't tell you, it will kill you, won't it? You have to know, you must know! Okay, we'll tell you, but your begging needs a lot of work. This week, we're discussing the twenty-first episode from season three, "The Parking Space!"
"He packed it up and split for the coast. La-La Land. L.A." Do you have a job? You got money? Do you have a woman? Do you have any prospects? You got anything on the horizon? Do you have any action at all? Do you have any conceivable reason for even getting up in the morning? If you answered "no" to any of those questions, then stop wasting your life and join us as we discuss the twenty-second and final episode of season three, "The Keys!"
