Your Kickstarter Sucks

What do you get when you cross August the month with Guests, the people you have on your show sometimes? Well you get a fresh pair of eyes on the interesting yet crazy Kickstarters of the day, a ton of laughs, and oh yeah, you get AuGuest, the brand new concept rolling into YKS just this very month! Join us and inaugural guest Stefan Heck as we take a look at computer mouse storage, a music pleasure insertion toy, basically the chairs from WALL-E, and some Kickstarters that Stefan brought as well. Wait, I just remembered he didn’t bring any. What the hell!? Why didn’t he do anything? Freakin numbnuts.Listen to Stefan’s show Blocked Party, now exclusively on Patreon, at Patreon.com/BlockedParty, and hey why not watch him live every Monday - Thursday at Twitch.tv/GoOffKings? Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle.

Gimme the clicker! I wanna watch YourHometv.com! Ah crap. All they’re playing is this stupid podcast. It looks like it’s hosted by 2 total morons. Heh. They’re ugly as well. And they seem depressed but not in an interesting way? Shit hold on they’re gonna discuss Kickstarter…that feels fresh. Let’s see what they got. Well it’s 45 mins in and they haven’t said anything about the Kickstarters. They’re mostly talking about doctors appointments and TV remotes. Well I checked the guide and apparently they’re gonna eventually get to bible memes, 1000 bad jokes, and a real sicko’s attempt to grift a luxury car. Evidently  there’s an actual good idea at the end. But I’m not waiting over 2 hours just to hear that. I gotta go play with my bath toys.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.

I just want to say before anyone listens to this episode…I LOVE true crime! Podcasts, Dateline, asking Chappy Tea to embellish the grisly details of case files I looked up with a hacked PACER account…I can’t get enough. So when I imply in this episode that I think the cottage industry exploiting the victims of physical violence for t-shirt sales is horrifically sad and beneath contempt, I was talking about something else. Or I got confused or I was taken over by a brain thing or something. I got all messed up for a sec. It’s cool though. Anyway what else?Oh yeah. Farts are funny and I’m a ninja pimp.

I hate my RV. Why did I decide to buy it? Why am I living in a big car? Aren’t I supposed to be enjoying my life at this age? I worked hard, dammit! And that slick salesboy at the dealership talked me into buying this big hulking bus. I look like I’ve got Aerosmith in here, but it’s just me, my wife, 6 of the most disgusting and worst behaved dogs this side of a Stephen King movie, a steel trash can full of Labubus, and a satellite dish. I wish I were dead! The only animating force in this life is the haunting spectre of dirt collecting in the entryway. Each day it calls me, and I answer! Toiling in its wake like Sisyphus! What benevolence will release me from this Hell?! Hopefully there’s like a small piece of plastic or something. Or, at the very least, a wetworks mercenary figurine I can put on the dashboard.Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle.

On this episode of YKS, we’ve got more Kickstarters than you can shake a stick at. That is, until they Kickstart a really big stick! Oh golly…don’t give ‘em any ideas. Actually, do. That would help them and help me. What other ideas do you got? Do you have any ideas about how certain pleasant strokables might be improved? Or perhaps some thoughts on making sports betting more crypto-friendly? What about a sitcom that’s, uh, well, I don’t know. Maybe don’t do the sitcom one. Tell you what, listen to this episode of the show, THEN come up with ideas. THEN I can have the ideas. And THEN they make a crazy movie about my life starring Zac Efron. And you, my friend, my inspiration, you can see the movie. Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin.

D drive…more like double d drive. Bazonga.exe! I’m not going to do any more computer puns in the episode description because, frankly, it’s not what the episode is about. And that makes it a disservice to you, the listener, and a distraction to everything going on in the world today. So I’ll simply say that on this episode we talk about some Kickstarters that are pretty interesting on their own, but really get taken up a couple of notches with some of the signature banter between Mike and JF, and, most likely, Producer Dan as well. They talk about beer, golf, smart locks, Will Smith, and who knows else! It’s just that kind of crazy episode. And oh yeah by the way, I am going to RAM my computer.

Snakes ain’t always in the stuff!!! Sharks ain’t always in the something!!! Ahhhhh!!!!! That is so scary to think about. But don’t worry. It’s just some stupid bullcrap some jerkoff thought up. The truth, of course, is somewhere in the middle. And in the middle of today’s episode are some really interesting Kickstarters. Looks like we’ve got some glowing rocks which is great. Love that. And also there seem to be some people having problems with toothbrushes that I’ve not really been struggling with myself. And yes, of course there are some toilet and bible weirdos as well…after all, why not! Why wouldn’t there be toilet and bible weirdos! That’s what the show is all about!

I just found out I have a power bank that’s been recalled. That’s pretty annoying. Now I gotta fill out some forms, dispose of it properly, and wait around for a reimbursement. Plus, I guess, hope it doesn’t explode. That would suck! But you know what else has been recalled? The Kickstarters from this week’s episode, by me, when I reread what we were doing when we recorded this episode! I guess that doesn’t really add much “zing” for you guys, to know that I was looking at this and kind of nodding a little bit. But I believe in full transparency in the creative process! For instance, On today’s show we were GROWLing…but our dogs were all too cool, thanks to a new type of harness tech! Plus we wanted to COMMIT to funding the arts in Florida…but we canceled all those plans. And…a third one! What’s it gonna be? Guess you’ll have to TUNE in to “find out”!

Another Crazy Monday…Another Crazy YKS. This is one crazy show, and what does that make the listeners of it? Ha. Well, you guessed it and said it. Not me! But hey. Enough craziness…or is it? Not for this crazy guy! Nothing is ever enough! Except when it comes to have six Kickstarter projects to talk about on one episode, in which crazy case I find to be the exact correct amount. Curious, that! That being said, what would they even be…?Some Japanese treats for your dog, a card game about pimping, and a dashboard toy of a twerking lady? Well, there’s only one word for that. And oh yeah…it’s YKS!!! 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.

I had to pause Family Guy to write this episode description, so it had better be good. On today’s show, we find out you can make pet treats at home with just a blender, steamer, fryer, dehydrator, and quality ingredients you can actually pronounce. We also invented a way to wipe our heads off with a towel. And of course, we also learned about self pleasure. Coincidentally, that’s what the Family Guy episode is about. It’s a Lois episode, so it’s not that good, but what else am I gonna do? Write the episode description? Not likely. Lucky there’s a podcasting guy…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.
