Episode 158: The Art of Chug

Welllllllllllll, well it's The Big Show! That was the entrance music of a wrestling guy from a number of years ago, but today we've got an episode of a podcast that could arguably go by the same name. That's because on episode 158 of YKS, we'll be introducing some products to you that might be able to make a real difference in your lives! Haha just kidding. We're going to talk about a penis board game. But there's also smart diapers, a joke of the day calendar for the terminally ill, and a product that promises to shave up to 1.2 seconds off the amount of time it takes to chug a Simply Alcohol (TM) Mango Wango Hard Sparkling Rosé Smoothie. Finally! That's time I can now spend explaining to my kids why the COVID-19 virus deserves all As. Music for YKS is courtesy of The Hell Yeah Babies, Craig Dickman, Howell Dawdy, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin. YKS is edited by Producer Dan. Today's episode of YKS is sponsored by Wipers123. They've been selling wiper blades for so long they've gotten to be pretty good at it. I've got some here at the house, and in my opinion, I don't know how you'd do it any better than Wipers123. Don't believe me? Fine. I don't care. For everyone else, go to Wipers123.com and use promo code YOURKICKSTARTERSUCKS for $10 off your order of SpeedSets, which sounds like a very fast type of windshield wiper. Hosted on Acast.

Episode 154: Happy Daddy's Day

Happy Daddy's Day Everyone Who Cares! On today's show we have a brand new character from DB, "Mikey the Centrist", plus fixes for the great problems of our time: deadly virus pandemics, police brutality, and gender neutral piss pans. Wow! I sure hope social influencers and politicians and the Illuminati are listening to this so we can get some shit done!

Today's YKS is sponsored by Wipers123. They're a company that sends you windshield wipers for your car. We got some and they seem to be pretty nice. Prices seem reasonable as well. So I would say if you need windshield wipers for your car, or if you know someone else who does and you are getting them windshield wipers as a gift, a smart thing to do would be to go to Wipers123.com and use promo code YOURKICKSTARTERSUCKS to get $10 off your order. Check out The Typhoon SpeedSet wiper blades with quick-click technology. Sounds pretty good. And don't forget the promo code there. Alright. Thanks. Hosted on Acast.

Episode 153: Uber For Help

Live from New York, it's.....YKS? What if that's what it was? Heck I don't know but I think it would most likely change from Weekend Update to Weekday Update. Due to, well, that's when the show comes out for one thing. And that's just one change. I might do some other ones, but of course I haven't really had much time to think about it. What, with everything going on in the world and all that stuff. I guess I'd also make it not Live anymore, just in case we have some mess-ups we want to take out. That way you get as good of a show as we can deliver, every time. And I'd do it during the day as well. Anyway, this week on YKS we have some Kickstarter projects to talk about, including both a half-assed new social media site and a niche Cards Against Humanity ripoff, as per usual, and then 4 other ones of indeterminate interest. Then several more minutes elapse with seemingly no new information conveyed, and the show ends. Please enjoy. Music for YKS is courtesy of the Hell Yeah Babies, Craig Dickman, Howell Dawdy, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin. YKS is edited by Producer Dan. Executive Producer PBostrom. For more YKS, check out the Patreon page please. On there we've got YKS Premium, of course, and we've also got YKS Da Mag, the official weekly newsletter of Your Kickstarter Sucks. Check it out for tips and tricks, behind the scenes info, and exclusive scoops you won't find anywhere else. Just playing. It's me and Mike talking about whatever. Hosted on Acast.

Now that's what we call "fulfilling our duties as part of an implicit promise"! Music for YKS is courtesy of the Hell Yeah Babies, Craig Dickman, Howell Dawdy, and Mark Brendle.

Episode 149: M.I.C.H.A.E.L. H.A.L.E.

On today's YKS...The first use of italics in an episode description that I can recall, so that's big news. Plus! Should we be celebrating the vulva? Many people are saying, "Yes! With a book!" Thankfully, our friend Lil' Evan is here to save the day. And we've got so much more than that....we're talking about the Jetsonification of breakfast, we're talking outer body experiences, we're talking bad usernames, we're talking DOG SHIT. We got it all today baby. Tune in or get tuned up.Music for YKS is courtesy of the Hell Yeah Babies, Craig Dickman, Howell Dawdy, and Mark Brendle. Additional research is courtesy of Zeke Golvin. YKS is edited by Producer Dan. Let's all hit the dab for our friends who make the show possible. Now that was a damn good episode. What was your favorite part of it? Let us know by emailing in: Email@email.com. But if you're not subscribed to YKS Premium on Patreon, you're missing out on (approximately) half the Mike and JF shenanigans you could be getting every week! Last week on YKS Premium, comedian and Real Housewives apologist Sarah Squirm rang us up to talk about Jackass stunts and be subjected to a Quarantine Edition of the Jokeblogger Top 10. It was pretty good! And now this week, we'll be doing another episode. It won't be as good, but, you gotta understand, people are busy right now. So that's why probably.Finally, this week's absolutely cool and kick-ass episode of YKS is brought to you by Manscaped.
