Your Kickstarter Sucks
Mike Hale and Jesse Farrar comb through the crowdfunding dumpster to tell you what projects are worth supporting with your hard-earned dollar. So far, it's been absolutely nothing, but whether it's a social media website for dogs, a toilet brush that reminds you to drink more water, or 5,000 offensive card games, maybe something will eventually be good!

Unlocked!! YKS Premium S7E2: The 12 Davids of Lynchmas: Mulholland Drive with Struggle Session
Hey, this is from the YKS Premium feed, and it features our friends Jack Allison and Leslie Lee III from Struggle Session. We brought them on to discuss the David Lynch film "Mulholland Drive". We did this because our theme this month is "The 12 Davids of Lynchmas", and the idea behind that was that we would watch and then review David Lynch movies in the month of December, which we did do and are still doing. We're releasing this one for free because we didn't want to do any work this week. If you wanna hear the other ones, please sign up to the Patreon page, because that's where they are. Capisce??? Alright, see ya. Hosted on Acast.

Episode 124: Merry Coffee
It just ain't a Tuesday without YKS baby! What if that bell guy from Monty Python was running around, saying stuff like that. Hey, YKS is here. Whatever he says in the movie.

Episode 123: The Marshmallow Test
Today we're leaving the past in the past...but not before we apologize for it like the dogs that we are. On this episode of YKS, Mike and JF grovel for your forgiveness before getting into the shit we love to hate so much: ethical traditional shampoo varietals, How To Become A Boomer: The Book, and Super Size Me if it was about chicken instead of chicken and burgers. And you just KNOW that would be harder to do!! Alright enjoy the show. Peace.Music for YKS is courtesy of our friends Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, and Mark Brendle.

Episode 122: Halloween Soup
Well it's almost practically Halloween, (if you're even allowed to say that anymore)!!
