Baconsale

If you found out we weren't alone, if Baconsale showed you, proved it to you, would that frighten you? Well, the day is finally here. On this BaconBit, we’re ready to review Steven Spielberg’s latest film, Disclosure Day. We will begin this review in a spoiler-free manner, offering our thoughts and emotions about this science fiction movie while Kent interprets for Zack and Joel. Then, after Zack asks us to compare Disclosure Day to other Spielberg films, he will depart, and Joel and Kent will bluntly discuss the plot in its entirety.

 

Press play. Listen.

Since we did our man crush episode last year, it’s time to balance the scales once again and discuss beautiful female celebrities. Our friend Babs is joining us to share her collaborated answers and to keep Kent in line (spritz-spritz!). We’ll be sharing our picks for such categories as Best Eyes, Superest Supermodel, Getting By on Her Looks (Only), Triple Threat, and Marriage Material. And along the way, we’ll use our height-dar, bond over Bond girls, and make comparisons to Newsies.

This year, Joel, Kent, and Zack decided to Eat Mor Chikin. However, what we thought was going to be a quick & simple menu quest ended up grilling us pretty hard. Nevertheless, we expertly managed the drive-thru, mobile-thru, take-out, and dine-in experiences and ate everything on the menu at Chick-fil-A. It’s our pleasure to kick off this episode of Baconsale with the history of this chicken-centric restaurant, following which we’ll discuss the best and worst sandwiches, wraps, salads, sides, treats, beverages, sauces, and breakfast items. Our conversation may be frosted with spicy takes, but we’ll also reward you with some hacks to save a few cents.

 

Press play before we close on Sunday.

Get over here! The Baconsale temps have been taken to the prison realm, where they will be in charge of sorting 18 characters from the Mortal Kombat video game franchise into minimum-, medium-, and maximum-security jail cells. Excellent! Where Joel, Kent, and Zack will put these champions will depend on their fighting abilities, how scary they seem, and sometimes how attractive they are. And while this episode wouldn’t get a parental advisory, we will be discussing some iconic fatalities, which some listener could find disturbing. It may not be a flawless victory for each decision, but we’ll be sure to keep the conversation toasty as we discuss classic television shows and the importance of multilingualism.

We don’t Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’, but Michael Jackson holds the record of being one of the best-selling artists of all time and no one has been able to Beat It. Wooo! And we Remember the Time when the King of Pop was beloved by all. Shamone! So, on this episode of Baconsale, we’re ready to discuss the man who will dance on the floor in the round. We’ll first review his HIStory, including the good and the Bad (and the Black or White). Then we’re going to Heal the World by talking about MJ’s best and worst songs. Hee-hee! This episode is sure to be a Thriller, and may even sound Dangerous, but we’ll keep things family friendly and focus on the music and Human Nature instead of controversy.

 

If you wanna make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and then press play.

It’s time for Baconsale to bring back the mother of all episodes! Can you believe it’s been eight years since we last gave our moms the microphone? We’ve invited Abby, Renae, and newcomer Christine to join us in the Baconcave and help us figure out what color things are, how to make cockatiel salsa, and expose some literal skeletons in the closet. The topics will range from cinema to cheese to conspiracy theories and everything in between. And don’t worry, when things get a little sentimental or sassy, underwear man will be there to save the day.

 

Take two bites and then press play to get a little matriarchal with Baconsale.

The dead speak! Having decimated the once peaceful STAR WARS fandom, the SEQUEL TRILOGY caused Baconsale to largely avoid talking about the whole franchise as of late. However, a sinister format has risen from the ashes of the podcast, and now Joel, Kent, and Zack must defend these three MOVIES, with only a few rant breaks to REALLY release pressure. We’ll force ourselves to be positive as we quote George Lucas, discuss questionable plot points, and learn why Zack should be a screenwriter. In the end, we may even convince ourselves that The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, and Rise of Skywalker don’t STINK. Maybe….

 

They fly now, so press play.

Okay, listener, we know we have a slight Obsession with these summer preview episodes, but we also know it’s our duty to disclose which films are lurking in the Backrooms. And it seems today is Disclosure Day. Zack, The Breadwinner of Baconsale, is going to guide Joel and Kent through their lists as this Odyssey unfolds. First, we will talk about a few films that should mercilessly be sent to the (Animal) Farm. But which movies will be Masters of the Universe? Don’t worry, we won’t leave you on a Cliffhanger. Eventually we’ll begin a Brand New Day of positivity where we present films that we think will be Super(girl). We’ll even include a Scary Movie or two, just for good measure.

Mount Everest is over 29,000 feet above sea level. It is unquestionably the highest peak in the world. But what about the peak of actors? On this episode of Baconsale, Joel, Kent, and Zack have each brought a secret list of popular movie stars. They’ll take turns presenting a celebrity and then debate which film is their ultimate role. We may argue about which summit is supreme, and sometimes we’ll justify mountain ranges, but in the end, we must pick an apex performance and live with our choices. We invite you to play along at home because you know these actors, you know the movie posters, and you quote these films all the time.

 

Press play for a quick, cringe-worthy lesson in modern slang.

We have crowned a new Listener of Baconsale, and now it is time for Taylor, Kris, and KP (Team Listener) to face Joel and Kent (Team JK) in a battle of trivial knowledge. However, little does Team JK know that some in the room are plotting against them, and they will face one of their most difficult challenges yet. Listen to the drama unfold as we answer questions about science, astronomy, Japanese culture, tools, and some pop culture.
