Mike Hale and Jesse Farrar comb through the crowdfunding dumpster to tell you what projects are worth supporting with your hard-earned dollar. So far, it's been absolutely nothing, but whether it's a social media website for dogs, a toilet brush that reminds you to drink more water, or 5,000 offensive card games, maybe something will eventually be good!

    Episode 474: The Early Bird Gets the Data with Matty Real

    Ah, guests…wait a minute…that gives me an idea for a month of episodes! Yeah like 2 years ago maybe! That’s right because of course we’ve already done it. And what a job we did do! If it wasn’t one guest, it was another, right on down the line. Before you knew it, we had an episode – actually, a string of them – and there they sat on the computer until one day they were mysteriously uploaded in sequence! Ah, but that’s the magic of electronics, isn’t it? Of course, my dear boy. And today we’re joined by a dear boy, our friend in content, Matty Real! Check out Matty’s new show, The Quizard’s Pit, wherever you get podcasts! And follow him on Twitch. Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle.

    Episode 473: Soda Pop Hall of Fame with Nick Wiger

    You ever hang out with a kid who’s really excited to show you his toys and it’s like, to you, the toys are just kind of boring crap, but you play along because obviously it means a lot to him and he doesn’t really understand that you have much better stuff to do? At a certain point, you’ve been pretending for so long that you catch yourself getting actually into it a little bit, but then the kid ends up taking a big smelly dump in his pants and you can tell it’s time to go. Later, in the car, you’re really thankful you don’t have to clean up that shit. It smelled really bad. And the kid didn’t even seem to notice. He must do this a lot. Anyway, on today’s episode of AuGuest, we showed our friend Nick Wiger some Kickstarters.   Do yourself a flavor and listen to Nick on Doughboys and Get Played. Now that’s what I call, Munchie Madness! Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin. YKS is edited by Producer Dan. Social Media by Maddalena Alvarez. Executive Producer Tim Faust (@crulge) Check this one out on YouTube. YKS Premium is where it all goes down – ad-free episodes of YKS, bonus episodes and more.

    Episode 472: My Epiphany Tub with Merritt K

    (video coming later today) AuGuest continues, and not a moment too soon! (????) The wonderful Merrit K from the online computer joins us for a laid back, “Weekend Style” YKS that just doesn’t make a mess! That’s right, no need to go and get a small towel and place it next to you for this one, and don’t even bother with wiping your hand on your leg somewhat. There’s no point! Just stick this ep right up ya, and go to town. It’s all-new, and it’s a lot of fun as well. And, we finally find out what’s wrong with Women. Ah! I hope a man says it. Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin. YKS is edited by Producer Dan. Social Media by Maddalena Alvarez. Keep up with Merrit K on Patreon, Bluesky, and 1900hotdog!  Executive Producer Tim Faust (@crulge) Get every episode of YKS ad-free on YKS Premium! Well YKS Premium is what we call the bonus eps. YKS is still YKS there, but there’s just no ads. It’s kind of a categorization problem. I’m not sure how to refer to the destination itself rather than the show. But then again the journey is the destination sometimes as well. So have a blast.

    Episode 469: Pureed Pumpkin Is Quite Mild And Flavorless On Its Own

    I almost forgot to post this one. But that probably doesn’t reflect on the quality of the episode, right? I just forgot what day it was. But that probably doesn’t reflect on me as a person or the type of life I live, right? It’s just normal stuff. Could happen to anyone. It probably has happened to Scott Aukerman like 9 million times. Yep he probably forgot to post Comedy Bang Bang 9 million times. That explains why he’s in magazines and I’m sitting in my computer chair nudely.

    Episode 468: The Crowdfunding Junkies

    They should make more Star Wars movies. And by “they”, I guess I mean “whoever the fuck feels like it”. Hey it can’t be any worse than Rise of Skywalker, can it? Well, I thought that movie was decent. So it probably can be worse than that. Scary Movie was worse than it. So it stands to reason that other things could be as well. I’m guessing that being one of those guys who shows up to the ER saying he slipped and fell on a barbie doll in the shower and it went all the way up his ass and he can’t get it out is worse than Episode 9, also, from what I have read in various journals and documents. Speaking of which, I have to go work on some documents right now! Ah, I’d love to talk more about this or anything else but I simply don’t have the time. Documents await!  Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin. YKS is edited by Producer Dan.

    Episode 467: The Diaper Community

    Look, I’m tired as hell for this one. Let’s just agree that we talked about pee and poop the normal amount, we weren’t too mean, it was just boring enough to go to sleep to but not so dull that you wanna unsubscribe from the show, and we obviously don’t have depression. Plus, something funny happened, and Dan/A Listener/person experiencing mania made a surprisingly salient point. And nobody important died. Yep it’s just another episode of YKS.
