October 05 Episode 479: This Guy Knows His Wipes with Luke Taylor
In what may be a YKS first…(AND LAST!?!), there’s a different butt in one of the chairs than the normal butt! With our trusty co-captain DB out bringing unwanted trays of drinks back to a table somewhere in Ohio, and a perfectly cromulent podcast host sitting on his ass in the guest bedroom, this week’s episode almost seemed written in the stars. Yeah, the star of Twitch.tv/TheLukeman and Stores: The Podcast, that is! That’s right, Luke Taylor is finally getting to say “Welcome to YKS”, so let’s welcome HIM, by listening to this episode, enjoying it, and no one being mad at JF for any reason whatsoever!

September 28 Episode 478: When I Was 16, I Cold-Emailed Poopy Doopy
Another Monday? How awesome is that! Well here in the physical world, it’s always a lot of fun to look around and see various ads and bulletin boards and things like that. So you’d have to imagine it’s even more badass and cool to have that same experience in cyberspace! And you’d be right! So I say to hell with it, let’s start getting obsessed with OnlyFans to the point that we make a special phone to block ourselves from using it, upload our IDs to some guy’s Dropbox so we don’t have to carry our wallet around anymore, and listen to one HELL of a podcast. It’s YKS! Or whatever else is on, not sure.

September 21 Episode 477: Live From New York…It’s A Wig of Hair!
Hey…I was walking over there! That’s right, JF is back from NY and he’s ready to say whether he had a “nice time” or not! Plus several Kickstarter projects of ill repute! Look just be glad this one came out alright. It was touch and go, Jerry!

September 14 Episode 476: Ice Cream Has Always Been More Than Dessert
Ice Cream is so yummy and nummy…even Snoop agrees! But enough about that guy, said no one ever, because it’s time once again for an ice cube invention! Hey don’t worry Snoop, we’re not talking about the man behind It Was a Good Day…you’re the only hip hopper for us! No, we’re talking about the things we put in our drinks to keep them nice and cool. Hey, just like you, Snoop! Plus, an invention that plays your guitar for you and a thing that helps you wash your car. That oughta come in handy on the road! Especially now that you’ve “given up smoke”!

September 07 Episode 475: The Second Judy in Our Lives is Not a Scam
I don’t feel too good so I’m gonna get right to the chase. Cut to it, I mean. We did 6 Kickstarters this week and I think we spent most of the time talking about the grocery store. Word to the wise…DON’T have a huge milkshake after competing in a pickle eating contest! Good way to get covid.

August 31 Episode 474: The Early Bird Gets the Data with Matty Real
Ah, guests…wait a minute…that gives me an idea for a month of episodes! Yeah like 2 years ago maybe! That’s right because of course we’ve already done it. And what a job we did do! If it wasn’t one guest, it was another, right on down the line. Before you knew it, we had an episode – actually, a string of them – and there they sat on the computer until one day they were mysteriously uploaded in sequence! Ah, but that’s the magic of electronics, isn’t it? Of course, my dear boy.
And today we’re joined by a dear boy, our friend in content, Matty Real!
Check out Matty’s new show, The Quizard’s Pit, wherever you get podcasts! And follow him on Twitch.

August 24 Episode 473: Soda Pop Hall of Fame with Nick Wiger
You ever hang out with a kid who’s really excited to show you his toys and it’s like, to you, the toys are just kind of boring crap, but you play along because obviously it means a lot to him and he doesn’t really understand that you have much better stuff to do? At a certain point, you’ve been pretending for so long that you catch yourself getting actually into it a little bit, but then the kid ends up taking a big smelly dump in his pants and you can tell it’s time to go. Later, in the car, you’re really thankful you don’t have to clean up that shit. It smelled really bad. And the kid didn’t even seem to notice. He must do this a lot.
Anyway, on today’s episode of AuGuest, we showed our friend Nick Wiger some Kickstarters.
Do yourself a flavor and listen to Nick on Doughboys and Get Played. Now that’s what I call, Munchie Madness!

August 17 Episode 472: My Epiphany Tub with Merritt K
(video coming later today)
AuGuest continues, and not a moment too soon! (????) The wonderful Merrit K from the online computer joins us for a laid back, “Weekend Style” YKS that just doesn’t make a mess! That’s right, no need to go and get a small towel and place it next to you for this one, and don’t even bother with wiping your hand on your leg somewhat. There’s no point! Just stick this ep right up ya, and go to town. It’s all-new, and it’s a lot of fun as well. And, we finally find out what’s wrong with Women. Ah! I hope a man says it.

Get every episode of YKS ad-free on YKS Premium! Well YKS Premium is what we call the bonus eps. YKS is still YKS there, but there’s just no ads. It’s kind of a categorization problem. I’m not sure how to refer to the destination itself rather than the show. But then again the journey is the destination sometimes as well. So have a blast.

Wanna watch this episode? Check it out here!
MyBobo…very annoying. Not that nice of a guy. I don’t think…I don’t think he’ll be coming around very much anymore, do you? Things have been arranged. To our mutual satisfaction. Thanks to our very wonderful and interesting and quite capable friend “Board”! Isn’t he great, folks? Okay. Thank you. I think so.
Buy Kendra’s new book, Real Hero Shit 2: Harder Than It Looks, check out their Patreon for even more Mature Art, and follow them on BlueSky.
