Baconsale would do anything for love, it seems, because we’re back for a third round of love songs! You’d think that by this point we’d be scraping the bottom of the romantic music barrel, but even we were surprised to discover how many amazing tunes we still hadn’t talked about. Listen as we pick answers for categories such as Most Emotional, How You Feel After That First Kiss, Best Power Ballad, and Favorite Foreign Language Love Song. There is so much love in the room on this episode…that is, until Kent brings the room down with his hipster picks. Nevertheless, you should still check out our playlist at Baconsale.com.

After our amazing showing in the Summer Olympics, Baconsale has been invited to participate in the Winter Olympics. We’ll first share a brief history of the Winter Games, then Kent, Joel, and Zack will rank each sport and choose a champion to compete in that event. And since these sports are more dangerous than the summer ones, the stakes have never been higher. Hear Joel’s proposed adjustments to our official Baconsalia uniforms, beware of Kent’s snowboarder bias, and learn how Zack became a human blanket.

Oh no! Zack was invited to two different sleepovers on the same night at the same time. How ever will he choose which one to go to? It’s up to Kent and Joel, who are hosting the separate shindigs, to pick the best possible party video games that will entice Zack to attend their event. And it’s a schoolyard pick, so they’re both choosing from the same list and stealing games (and guests) from one another. Is Super Smash Bros. the ultimate? Will Baconsale start a Dance Dance Revolution? Who is the greatest Guitar Hero? Baby, can you see our Halo?

What is that sound? Those crunching noises pervading the air? Well, it seems as if Baconsale has a few chips left in our bag of bags, and Joel, Kent & Zack are ready to rank! No crackers are allowed this time as we take on Tostitos, meditate on Miss Vickie’s, pick on Pringles, review Ruffles, and debate Doritos. And as we tier 21 of these popular corn & potato snacks, watch out for wooofs of onion, Zack’s impromptu slogans, and salt shaming. Oh, and does anyone want to count how many times we say the word “cheese”?

We didn’t ask for this gift to accurately predict everything that’s going to happen during the upcoming year, but by golly we’re going to share it with others! In what is considered by some to be the tabloid episode of Baconsale, Joel, Kent & Zack are each going to do their best to forecast the pop culture future once again. We’ll uncover chocolate conspiracies, discover demonic celebrity deals, and prognosticate Pete Davidson’s dating life. Plus, we’ll also have expert-level sport genre talk, and we’ll share the films we want to flop, and the movies we’re most excited for in 2022.

It’s the start of a new season here on Baconsale, which means it’s time to talk about which movies made an impression on us. Kent, Joel, and “the Worst” Zack have compiled a list of their favorite and least favorite films from the past year. As usual, Kent sticks to movies made in 2021 and, as usual, Joel allows films that he watched for the first time to make his list. Some of our picks are pretty predictable, but we manage to throw a few curve balls in. Enjoy as we try to pronounce Camila Cabello, throw some shade at horror movies, and explain the joy of suffering.

 

I’m happy. You’re happy. We’re happy. Press play.

Well, another season of Baconsale is coming to a close, which means it’s time for Kent, Joel, and Zack to wax nostalgic and take a look back at the past year. On this episode, we’re discussing fun episode intros, surprise hits, strange topics, memorable musical moments, and listener interactions. Plus, we’ll be ranking our top three favorite episodes. We even brought some audio clips this time. There are glimpses behind the scenes of how we make the podcast, a lot of laughing, some screaming, plenty of passion, and more than a few matching answers, but we hope you enjoy this self-indulgent end to season seven of Baconsale.

Here we come a-podcasting among the leaves so green! Christmas is a special time of year, and there are certain treats & sweets we tend to eat during the holiday season that make it feel extra magical. On this episode of Baconsale, Zack, Kent, and Joel are going to tier 24 of the most popular yuletide snacks & drinks, including candy canes, hot chocolate, peanut brittle, wassail, fudge, eggnog, fruitcake, and gingerbread. Kent & Zack seem to have similar tastes, while Joel has some passionate opinions on the combination of citrus and orange. And be warned, this episode might make you hungry/nostalgic.

Once again, Baconsale is rolling the dice and participating in a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure-style game and letting someone else take the reins of the episode. Our good friend Mats has spent months preparing an interactive competition for Kent, Joel, and Zack, and he’s now ready to unleash his Hunger Games multiverse on our minds and your ears. Along the way, we’ll race for tridents, get in our first fist fights, try to avoid arrows/killer ducks, sleep on bread, and just try to keep ourselves (and our wives) alive.

If there’s something strange in your rural Oklahoma neighborhood, who you gonna call to review it? Baconsale! On this BaconBit, we’re going to review the first true sequel to the Ghostbusters franchise since 1989. But will Ghostbusters: Afterlife hit all the right nostalgia notes? Or will it stumble trying to pander to the fans? You’ll have to listen to our review to find out. We must warn you, however, that Joel can’t tell the difference between Mckenna Grace and Kiernan Shipka. And even if you haven’t seen Ghostbusters: Afterlife yet, you can still listen to the first part of our review, as it is spoiler-free. We’ll warn you when we’re going to cross the spoiler streams.
