Episode 148: Armchair Neuroscientists

Paint drying may be the famously boring thing to watch happen....but what if you only listened to the part that happens before you even get to paint! That is today's episode in a nutshell, as Mike and JF discuss the finer points of drywall repair, the disease of serial inventorship, the great democratization of sub-South Parkian animation software, and political protest poems (with fiddle accompaniment). Bye Bye Virus! 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. YKS Premium this week is a doozy....Mike and JF are joined by the very nice and funny Sarah Squirm to talk about reality TV bullshit and do the JokeBlogger Top 10. It's very stupid to subject your good guests to this! But that's what you have to do sometimes, if you want to (???) and (???). Anyway check it out. On Thursday, when it comes out. Hosted on Acast.

Episode 147: Get The Led Out

A smarter butter dish....innovative design...a magnet to hold the included knife. If only life were this simple! Some would say that it is, and those people are making lots of money selling products online. On today's YKS, we actually talk about some of these crazy products, with a bit of a critical eye, to let you, the skeptical consumer, learn something, or whatever. And that is how you make a show. 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. This week on YKS Premium, the debut of an all-new YKS Premium Special Event Series: Rubbish Lads. Mike and JF's tour through the sordid world of British Trash TV. First up is Naked Attraction, a show featuring 6 nude contestants and one potential date to judge their balls and asses and cooters. They got some good TV over there folks, so let's enjoy it together. Hosted on Acast.

Episode 146: One For The Road

Ohhh now this is so nice. It's another episode of YKS. This week on the show, I didn't take too many notes during recording because we were having such a good time. So that right there should tell you something. But it says here on the official episode outline that we talked about a Covid-19 coin, a combination cup + bluetooth speaker, and playing cards that, let's just say, the average simpleton won't be comprehending anytime soon. That would be enough, matter of fact, it would be MORE than enough than many people deserve now of days, but we did even more than that. And you'll have to listen to the episode to find out what, if anything, I am talking about. Thanks everyone. For doing what I said. 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.

And as always, you can find even more YKS on the YKS Premium Patreon page. There's some good stuff on there. Of course, not every single thing is great. We're not batting 1.000. But it's like Christmas. You get a few good ones and the other ones can sit up in the attic for a while. Or you throw it away. Maybe one of em is exactly what you needed. That's why YKS Premium is like Christmas, which was, if I remember correctly, the question. Hosted on Acast.

Episode 145: The Bug That Got Away

Headed on down to South Park gonna have myself a time....oh damn! It's the South Park Guys. Carman and everyone. They are here and they are ready to equal opportunity offend. But First! Nearly 90 minutes of two sad guys in their houses going "Uhh". On today's show we've got stupid snack innovations, more coffee trash from the coffee trash heap, some virus cash-ins, and a few things Mike pretends to actually like for some reason. So, again, get through all that and we will have you back with Kenny and The Gang in no time, finding out how he died, assuming they still do that thing. Which I'm pretty sure they do, unless the guy who does the voice for him became a Scientologist. Alright. Enjoy the (South Park) show. 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.

Episode 144: Goblin Behavior

Hello everyone, it's Mike and JF here and it's time to transition from the introduction part of the show notes to the early midpoint of the show notes. Wow we're already here. This is awesome. On today's show we're talking about the same stuff as usual, but with some very slight differences. We've got stupid shit for kids, condescending board games, cynical cash-ins, insane ramblings (and not just from the hosts!), political points of view exposing much of the population as foolish babies, and some dumb inventor guy. We even fit more stuff in there as well, but I find that listing it all out takes a lot of time and I don't think anyone reads this except the little Google robots that scan text to put in ads. So hello to our friends the Google robots. Please enjoy the show if you possess the higher order thinking required. Not all that high really.Music for YKS is courtesy of the Hell Yeah Babies, Craig Dickman, Howell Dawdy, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke. YKS is edited by Producer Dan. For more YKS, check out YKS Premium ONLY on Patreon! This week, we've got another classic crossover episode with our friends from Blocked Party, Stefan Heck and John Cullen. Tune in to hear their minds melt as they attempt to solve a series of psychotic puzzles from another dimension (multiple choice questions about sports) in the YKS Who Wants to Be a (Multi-) Millionaire Challenge! That's right folks, this intercontinental rumble is for all the All-Dressed Tostitos. Plus, whenever those turds put up their bonus episodes, we're on there as well! Hosted on Acast.

Episode 143: Mike's Way

Ohhhhhh!!! Another one! This week on YKS, Mike and JF are talking sex tapes, dick pics, wasting your life, and some actually maybe kind of okay (?) Kickstarters? Maybe that was a mistake. But we have to go do some other shit now so this is the ep, and we are Boss Bitches so deal with it!!Music for YKS is courtesy of the Hell Yeah Babies, Craig Dickman, Howell Dawdy, and Mark Brendle.

Episode 142: Goovis Young

Oh no they did another YKS! It's a remote episode of course, which is fine. On this week's show we're trying out new intros, NOT going to the store, and doing hammer violence. It actually is remarkably similar to a normal episode of the show, which is either good or bad depending on if you like the show normally or not. Either way, you can't deny that it's here now. And it's better than going outside and licking stuff.Music for YKS is courtesy of the Hell Yeah Babies, Craig Dickman, Howell Dawdy, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin.

And since everyone's sitting around all bored, we unlocked two episodes for the gen. pop to check out, both sports episodes with our friend Chris James. Get em Here and Here. And thanks for listenin.

Unlocked! YKS Premium S5E5: In the Passenger's Seat with Chris James

The YKS remote recording setup is not yet ready to go (we hired the Joe Biden guys), so for today we'll be releasing a classic YKS Premium episode from the archives. Originally released 2/8/19, this episode with the one and only Chris James touches on the NBA trade deadline (remember when we had sports?) and contains the first review of my rec league hoops performance. Look for Part 2 of that conversation to be released later this week, and as always if you need more YKS on your Pono Player, you can subscribe to YKS Premium on Patreon. Which would rock.

Episode 141: Dead Butt Syndrome

Well here's a weird one for ya: with Mike Out Of Office, we're forced to go to Plan B: ask the 2 other guys in JF's house to do the show. Luckily, past Jesseuary guest Greg Pollock (@weedguy420boner) and early Go Off Kings Producer Paul (@tinybaby) answer the call to talk about tired asses, the science of funniness, and streaming services for men. Which we need right now more than ever! 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.Despite all the bullshit, YKS Premium is still coming your way. so if you're looking for some shit to do, go on over there and sign up and download it please. $5 a month gets you access to over 150 hours of content and a coveted slot in the YKS discord server, where hundreds of freaks and esteemed posters such as ourselves await your vegetable recipes and dog pictures.

Episode 140: Mask On

Folks we're out of the frying pan and into the fire at YKS HQ, as we (barely) survive a big ass tornado and now must escape a global pandemic while shacking up in the same quarters. So we're prepping ourselves with the best disease prevention campaigns Kickstarter has to offer, from a fake mask thing to another fake mask thing and more.
