Your Kickstarter Sucks

Yeee-haw! That's what I'd say if I were a big Texas cowboy type of guy. And here's another character I've been working on: "The Butler". Hello, ma'am. Welcome home for the evening. Your gown is in the foyer. I have a lot of these guys I never really get to do on the show because we're always talking about Kickstarter stuff. Which I guess is what I should be mentioning right about now. Oh well. Today on the show we have a new cube to talk about, which is great, even though I didn't get to do my Mad Scientist character. He goes like, Mwah haha haha. And we also have a Grumpy Cat LEGO type of thing. I did not have a character for that one, but I can make up one now. It's called, like, Clock Man. Well it looks like it's time to stop doing this character. Ok that was pretty good for being on the spot. There are some other Kickstarters on there too but basically just know there's like very little if any character work this week but next week Mike said we can do a lot more ok see ya.

2020 was one hell of a year...emphasis on the HELL part! Still, I'd love to relive it for some reason with a half-assed board game. And if that gets boring, maybe I'll head over to the gaming PC to boot up some warmed over shit from circa-1999 Newgrounds Flash barf. Even though neither of those things sounds that good to do, I'm still going to do them. If you want to stop me, you're going to have to tone up your butt muscles, slap on your Billionaire Suit, and hit the Prayers App. Cat Toilet. Couldn't work in the last one but getting 5 in there is not too shabby. Get in here you old dogs, it's time for YKS! Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, and Mark Brendle.

It's 2021 everyone, where everything is good again. We still have to do the show though, so sorry about that! This week on the show we're talking about the long-awaited crossover between NES games and the world of Pawn Stars, a mask for people who want to look like a big egg, humping Disney characters, and using your balls as a penis. Plus we're one-upping the 100 Ideas list from a while ago with an even bigger list of even worse ideas. There are like 4000 of these things. They are terrible. Here's one: "A zip that if left unzipped for more than 1 min starts screaming" -- What's that? No idea. They aren't really too much better than that one on average. Anyway that's 2021 for ya folks so get in here before we start hating this one too. Music for YKS is courtesy of the Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin.

It's the end of the year as we know it....And I feel fine!!! It's from a famous song! It's a parody! Look it up! When it comes to finishing up the HELL YEAR!!! you know we had to do it big: deleting the episode we actually recorded by accident, then scrambling to replace it with the Premium episode we recorded the week before, and not having a plan for how to replace that. But you know what, I think it worked out pretty good. That's right, we brought our friends from Blocked Party back to see if they can redeem themselves after a pitiful performance on YKS Millionaire last time around. Did they do it? Did they win the million? Or did they bring shame to their family and podcast and Twitch streams once again? Also is Blippy there for some reason? Yep! Hell of a show, and a hell of a couple guys. Even Producer Dan is in on this one. What da!!!!Music for YKS is courtesy of the Hell Yeah Babies, Craig Dickman, Howell Dawdy, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin.

Hey gang, it's the YKS boys' annual week off, so we're bringing some YKS Premium content out of the vault for your enjoyment. If you haven't heard this classic ep yet, you are in for a treat. And if you have, well, it's still a treat! Plus, feel free enjoy the brand new intro at the beginning. Or not! Either way, our friend Mark Brendle joins us to talk about The Dead Zone, a very weird little movie from the twisted mind of Stephen King that has, dare I say, become very relevant in the last couple of months. It's a great choice by Brendle and I think we learn a lot as well as having a good time. Short of hanging out with Neil deGrasse Tyson, I don't think you'd find a better way to combine those two things than this episode. Happy hall of days every one, and we will be back with some 100% new shit next week. Cheers,Music for YKS is courtesy of the Hell Yeah Babies, Craig Dickman, Howell Dawdy, and Mark Brendle.

Imagine a futuristic world where everything is basically the same....except there's, like, some pink graffiti around and maybe a robot zips by carrying some food. What moral implications would that have, on our society...and what would YOU choose to become? More importantly...who cares! It's another YKS folks and this time we've got a video game about being Jesus (but you probably don't get any cool powers), the worst innovation in underwear history, and a robotic salad trailer idea from a young man trying his best to make it in this crazy world. Oh and did I mention there's a bunch of LED lights and ripped jeans everywhere in this new world...this seems insane! And it's a ways into the future but not too far away. So. Still pretty interesting. Not as interesting as Futurama though. Anyway that's the program and please enjoy it. Thank you.

You're not gonna believe this, gang, but we were able to pull it together for another episode. This week on the show we've got a tactical scarf, the secrets behind the American flag revealed, a Karen drinking game, and a nasty porno about fucking the President. And that's just the good stuff! Kidding...I'm kidding! Relax. Plus we recap the biggest story of the week, when I watched Home Alone and kept track of which guys got hurt the most. It's another day ruined by the jerks of football, but we power through and give you guys the best episode of YKS in December so far. It's no problem at all though.

Well, Thanksgiving is over, the Holiday(TM) Tree is up, and that darn tryptophan is finally wearing off! Time to dig in to some leftovers, aka some stupid crap from a website. On today's program, we've got what we all need this year, some funny socks! Plus, a simple way to defeat the purpose of wearing a mask, a new robotic friend that we'll just have to bury eventually, and of course the return of an old friend. Damn they brought Saved By the Bell back! That's not the friend I'm talking about. It just came up while I was writing this and I paid attention to it like a dumb dog. Actually it derailed me by about 10 minutes. Gotta turn the TV off while I'm working. But I won't!

Episode 176 is here....that's huge. That is a huge accomplishment. Plus there were probably a few we lost along the way. And then the bonus episodes on top of that (plus the ones we lost there). God. That's probably, I don't know, what, the equivalent of 56,000 shows or so? Lot of mileage on these lungs but they just keep on tickin', I'll tell you what. And still no 100th episode celebration in sight. Well for this week's show, Mike has picked the Kickstarters so you know what that means: it's just stuff he wants me to buy him. Will I buy him any of it? Will he make it subtle that he wants me to buy it? There's only one way to find out: download and listen 10 times in a row on all your different devices and through a variety of IP addresses! That's a joke, relax.

Ring ring....hello? Yes it's the YKS War Room. Yes, our refrigerator is running. Why do you ask? Oh crap, you're doing a prank on us. Well, just so you know, the NEAS Secret Service is listening in on all these calls, so. And we've been crying in the bathroom all day as well. On today's show we've got some funny little calls, which you probably guessed! Plus, some new brain hacks for memory keeping, a new kitchen gadget that sucks, and one of the all-time freaks from hell is back with another stupid ass movie. That's basically our crazy ass show, thanks for coming to our weird little section of the internet. Hope you had fun. And if you got too freaked out, I'm soooooooo sorry. NOT.

Brian and Ed, you beautiful sons of bitches, you finally did it. You -- We --Trumped Ronald Plump at last. Now to enjoy the next four to eight years of peaceful, social justice oriented, climate conscious stewardship from our trusted progressive ally, Joe Biden. Heh. Anyway also on today's show we've got what is hopefully the last word on ironic red hat co-opting paraphernalia, Cooking For Men about 10 years too late, and a DOA exercise product even JF's tiny, pathetic ass couldn't make use of. That's pretty much the whole show so go listen to it now, before the world gets really really good and you don't have time to download podcasts anymore!

Checking in with Justin Bieber's pastors...Talkin' Blue Guys....The War on Christmas begins...and finally, David Hasselhoff returns to the stage. Obviously we want you to download and enjoy this episode today, but hell, tomorrow might even be a good day to put some earbuds in and tune everything out. Put it on your bluetooth speaker or pass your mopey, ironic brother the aux cord and crank up YKS for the whole neighborhood to hear. Maybe that's what will bring us all together! Doubt it, but if you don't try, someone somewhere might get mad at you! That should motivate ya! Ok in all seriousness thanks for listening and sorry for what I said in this episode about the movie Halloween, which does suck but I'm still sorry about that.

Too Many Doggos? Is there EVEN such a thing? Well, some Fun Haters around the web think so. Let's get em!! We will be spending as little time as possible on Reddit-like terminology such as that, and as much time as we can possibly justify on why I'm right that all chain pizza is scientifically indistinguishable. Plus, we've got the next generation of Ice Cube Technology, a thing seemingly designed for fast food guys to review shit in their car, and a movie that manages to be so stupid that it's not even funny to watch. And finally, the return of an old friend. If you're used to falling asleep to the show or not listening all the way through because it's too boring, or leaving it on for your dogs while you're at work, change it up this time and catch the whole thing.

That's how we do it in Margaritaville, son -- a normal thing to say that I have said and will say moving forward as well. On today's show we've got a Donald Trump doll that looks like a....what???? Plus a new type of headgear, an app just for pasta, a device for making your dog's kibble look even less appetizing than normal, and of course, a stupid card game made by unfunny dorks. And that's pretty much it! Doesn't seem like it would take that long to read 6 things but by God it does.

It's time to sue Mike, everyone! He loves sandwiches and it's time to take him to the cleaners, woodshed, and poor house. On today's show we've got a new frontier in tea drinking completely SMASHED, your notions of the wisdom of staying strapped on the beach DESTROYED, and best of all we've got America finally BROUGHT together at last by pictures of, what else, feet. It's a hell of an episode featuring nothing to get mad at us about, so there's no need to try. I'd suggest simply sitting back, relaxing, and vibing!
