Your Kickstarter Sucks

Jesse Farrar & Mike Hale

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 440: I Really Need The Gong Soon

    It’s 2026…are we really still doing podcast episode descriptions? I mean, come on! It should be AI! Or it should be some guy on the other side of the world that we’re just saying is AI. It should be at least that. UGH! Fine. I will write it. But it WON’T be good. On this episode of YKS there’s a dog…uh, thing. Honestly this was recorded last month I don’t remember what these were, save for one. I really really don’t like the guy making the podcast about bringing people together. Well, I guess I should say I don’t like the podcast, not that I don’t like him. I don’t know him. And actually I didn’t really listen to the podcast, either, so that hardly seems fair. If I really think about it, what’s causing me to have this reaction to him? Resentment…jealousy…just the way I was brought up? Gosh, I’ve never really thought about it. But now that I have, I have decided to change my mind. I’m now in favor of stupid fucking fake crap you put online for clout. And with that, enjoy this episode of Crap Shit Sucks: The AssCast.  Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin.

    Episode 439: UNLOCKED! Farrarch 3: Bob’s Burgers with Paul F. Tompkins

    It’s almost New Year’s, and we’re unlocking a New Fear – that of a New Episode of YKS NOT being re-released. But we’re also unlocking something else simultaneously, which makes this little linguistic flair quite apropos after all! That’s right, it’s UNLOCKED EPISODE time! And for this week, we revisit one of the year’s best with one of the world’s best – Bob’s Burgers with Paul F. Tompkins. This time, the video is here for everyone to enjoy, along with about 20 extra minutes of me sounding like a psycho. So sit back, relax, and “toon” in. And out. And in. And out. Oh baby!  Music for YKS Premium courtesy of Howell Dawdy. YKS is edited by Producer Dan. Social Media by Maddalena Alvarez. Executive Producer Tim Faust (@crulge) Check out Paul on tour in 2026 and listen to Threedom! Executive Producer Tim Faust (@crulge) This very episode, and hundreds more like it, was birthed from the loins of YKS Premium! The almost-always exclusive home of YKS Staples like Farrarch, Miketober, YKS Beach Party, and more. Sorry for saying the birth loins thing. I made a point to say something Chappy Tea wouldn’t say because I used 2 emdashes up there and I know that’s a whole thing now.  Follow us on Instagram: @YKSPod, TikTok: YourKickstarterSucks and subscribe to our YouTube channel for more video stuff!  Wow, 2025 is lit!!

    Episode 435: Podcasts for Men

    It would be funny if we had a guy called Meatball on the show. Hey Meatball…what are you doin? Meatball, how was your weekend? Meatball, what the HELL do you think about that? Oh Meatball. But, we don’t have that. And that is why the show sucks. Speaking of which, on today’s show, we have two projects about hooters but kind of from the opposite end of the spectrum, and some dumb crap you’d get someone you don’t like that much for Christmas. Which is coming up, by the way! Maybe they’d like a Gift subscription to YKS Premium instead, which is now available at Patreon.com/yourkickstartersucks/gift. Or maybe they are a Scrooge! And they deserve PAIN!  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.
