Episode 87: No Signal Mountain
The Academy Awards, also known as the Oscars,[1] are a set of awards for artistic and technical merit in the film industry, given annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), to recognize excellence in cinematic achievements as assessed by the Academy's voting membership. The various category winners are awarded a copy of a golden statuette, officially called the "Academy Award of Merit", although more commonly referred to by its nickname "Oscar". The award was originally sculpted by George Stanley from a design sketch by Cedric Gibbons.[2] AMPAS first presented it in 1929 at a private dinner hosted by Douglas Fairbanks in the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel.[3][4]Music for YKS is courtesy of our friends Lydia Burrell, Craig Dickman, and Mark Brendle.For more on Joan Osbourne, check out www.patreon.com/yourkickstartersucks, where pie IS always a full meal.

Episode 86: Dear Heaven
Hey everyone, JF here. Writing the description for the show is one of the worst parts of my week so I'm going to take this one easy and just say some stuff in a list, ok? Here goes: Jacked up on caffeine, sleeping with da fishes, marmaduke follies, and Andy Serkis Grandpa. That's a great list. Alright. Glad I did it. Now, for more stuff you can put in a list, check out www.patreon.com/yourkickstartersucks. We don't have a big celebrity guest this week, but we do eat some very spicy food. And I think, just based on the way the world is going, maybe that's just as good to listen to. Good Morning Vietnam! That is another thing from my list that I didn't write up there.
