Episode 394: Linux Tep Tips

Three Hundred and ninety-four episodes of this crazy show. They should give out awards for that kind of thing. In fact, they do, I’ve decided. And oh yeah, we won one. The big award for having recorded 394 episodes (plus bonus eps). And we won the fuckin thing! We get to do whatever we want with it! I think it should go on our shelf with our other awards (Fark Prize for Excellence in Web Browsing, the big award for having recorded 393 episodes, 2nd place in mike’s work chili cook off). What do YOU think we should do with all our accolades from our distinguished careers?On today’s show there sure is some silly stuff. And the episode is very long as well. Join us for it, won’t you?

Episode 392: My Toilet is a Paradise

When it comes to an episode of YKS, there’s gonna be 3 hits. I hit the theme song button, DB hits a couple of home run dingers, and Dan hopefully hits the button that takes out all the times we said our social security numbers, where we live, and actionable threats against celebrities. So maybe like 2.5 hits at best. But still, that’s more than Justin Bieber!On today’s show we have a humpty-hoo and a diddly-doo and a rooty-toot-too! Just kidding. This is for all the true fans that read this far into the episode description. A treat from us to you. A real reveal about what kind of kickstarters are contained within this 2 hour laugh-stravaganza. Are you ready? Here goes! It’s toilet cleaner and boner juice.

Episode 391: I Have a Brand New Video Game Idea

I think it would be fun to be a little Italian guy who could hop around and stuff and he throws, um, baskets, I guess. And he’s fighting, um, a kind of big…Chimp…Yeah. And oh yeah…the best part? The chimp is named something you wouldn’t quite expect. Ha! I will also be making the game 400 years too late and Crappy as well. Thoughts?Well, I hope they’re good. And I hope YOU’RE good. And I hope this episode is good as well. After all, why wouldn’t it be – it’s the Crazy Kickstarter formula we know and love – along with a couple of twists, of course – and the theme o’ the day is “interesting kickstarters plus some fun comments.” If that don’t whet your whistle, then perhaps some of the YKS guys’ patented Observational Humor will cure what ails ya. And if not, well, there’s always driving out to the woods to become a hermit! Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle.

Episode 389: KarenCoin: Hodl to Your Manager

Well here we are in 2025 and of course the number one problem everyone is having right now is that cereal gets too wet or warm or something like that. Yep it’s pretty much driving everyone mad and a lot of scientists have “jumped out of windows” about it, but it seems like this problem won’t be fixed anytime soon. And that really stinks because if that problem got fixed there would be some good stuff happening after that. Alas!We’ll just have to make do with a brand new way to make money on social media, a freakin wristband that gives you super powers in your smart home, and a computer that can flush your bird’s toilet for you. Perhaps some day we will solve our problem of cereal having to be eaten within like 5-10 minutes of pouring it into a bowl…or all die trying.Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle.
