Your Kickstarter Sucks

Twenty twenty twenty four minutes to go…I want to hear the podcast! Imagine if we were posting this episode just 24 minutes before it was supposed to go live. That would certainly be a stressful situation…and maybe it’s even happened before! But nowadays we’re a little bit wiser, a LOTTA bit older, and let’s just say we got it in with plenty of time to spare. Pause. 

On today’s show we’ve got a kitchen device that will have you saying “That’s maybe 2 things. Definitely not 10, and no way is it 12”, a kitchen device that will have you saying “Who in the world could possibly justify this…why would you make this…”, and a kitchen device that will have you going “Well, that doesn’t really feel like a product at all. It’s borderline an idea.” I guess there are a few kitchen things today but the rest of them are the normal crap. So get out the knife and fork and plate and napkin and stuff like that…it’s time to YKS!

Been crafting your reality lately? Well we have. That’s why demons are in charge of the world, the economy is in the toilet, and tornadoes are whizzing past our houses. We’re not that good at it! Someone else should be crafting our reality…but without the right app, there’s no hope. Plus, even if we did have the perfect reality creating app, we would probably be too busy waiting for our stupid tattoo artist to get done stenciling the piece of art that will be a permanent fixture on our skin (why do they take like 35 mins???) or worse, spending time with our children. Gah! And what fucking temperature is it outside! Why won’t my mug tell me!!! I need help. And a Lot of it. Right now. Luckily there’s a new episode of YKS! But Doctor…you know. That whole thing. See ya

Want more YKS? Get it at YKS Premium! Last month was a barn burner with guests and flicks galore – join us as we talk to Carl Tart, Paul F. Tompkins, and more of our crazy friends about some of the Terrific Toons that have graced the silver screen in Farrarch: Back to the Drawing Board. This month, we’re not doing shit! That was too much work.

Who’s getting canceled! I need to know this. It’s important to know who that is happening to! Because I assume it is a lot of people. Presumably it is, right? It’s only a few or several years later. And nothing has really changed since then. Plus there’s a game about it, which usually indicates some level of relevance. Yep. All in all, I’d say someone is getting canceled. God, I hope it’s no one I care about! The consequences, we assume, would be dire. 

Well anyway on today’s show there’s that kind of stuff. And some Catholic stuff (don’t write in saying you’re Catholic I don’t want to hear none of that mess). And some surfing stuff (don’t write in saying you’re a surfer I don’t want to hear none of that mess). And of course, our old friend Stringy. Stringy, we love you!

If you’re not subscribed to YKS Premium you’re missing out on at least half the fun – if not slightly more! It’s March, so Farrarch continues over on the Patreon, and you’re not gonna want to miss our final 2 episodes. Carl Tart. Paul F Tompkins. Family Guy. Bob’s Burgers. This could be any primetime programming block on network TV but instead, it’s right here on the podcast of 2 old dinks. How do they do it? Well mostly by begging and bribing their wonderful friends. But also we have our secret lucky gems! Subscribe today and check out the fun. It’s what our gems compel!

It’s finally time to discover the future of bathrooms. What is it? What will it be? A toilet with a battery? That weird grilling situation from the old Home Improvement episodes? A sink with “good vibes”?? Nope! It’s got to be a bidet with a sticker of “The Dude” from Big Lebowski on it. If that’s what the future of bathrooms is, then get me that damn DeLorean! I’m going back to the past!! Is that what happened in that movie? I honestly don’t remember. I hate Back to the Future. But this isn’t about that. It’s about other stuff.

Like an incomprehensible AI show, an inscrutable AI text messaging app, and a downright confusing conspiratorial book pitch from a guy I wouldn’t trust to find an Easter egg, much less a missing person. Easter’s coming up. Don’t forget to get your eggs. Oh God, I just realized…Easter’s gonna cost a fortune this year!! Uh yeah, this IS the worst timeline. And me without a DeLorean again…don’t that beat all! (Did they do multiverses in those movies? I honestly don’t know)

I hate when I flip my ice cube tray over and…something bad happens to the ice? Or the tray? Or, God forbid, me?? I love myself. Even more than ice cubes! This is the kind of thinking that has been abandoned by our Elite Thinkers now of days, and why we end up with more “apps” than “applications”. Well I’m just having a little fun about the destruction of our planet but I do think that it’s more fun when inventors are thinking about stuff that bothers them in the kitchen as opposed to which types of people deserve to continue living. What can I say…I love household gadgets! 

On today’s show we also have some advancements in the worlds of Plates, some innovation in the dumpster sector, and a strange comic book project that not even the crazy comic heads on this show can quite understand. But hey, I guess that’s this crazy show! And I wouldn’t trade it for the entire world! Would you?

“I was once a professional Quake player and won a couple thousand dollars at the first paid esports tournament in the United States.” ← May be true from a certain perspective, if you ignore some key facts and add a generous dose of assuming good faith argumentation. However, “There are at least 6 Kickstarters featured in this week’s episode of YKS” is a statement of fact unassailable by even the most ardent fact-checker. Go ahead, count them yourself! We’ll be waiting. To wit:

On today’s show, we have something about Wi-Fi, a stupid golf one, and 4 others. Satisfied? Well me neither but it’s on the damn show so suck it up! Oh yeah and don’t forget…have a nice time!

UHHH!! YUCK!!! UYUCKOO!! I axeofdentally touched the gas pump! BLEH! When I was pumpking gas into the car. My car got some gas on the outside of it! OOWOOGA! Now to touch the $20 bill, the door handle, the cash wrap, the rollerized hot dog, the plastic bag, a quarter, a newspaper, my sticky butt crack, and a cop’s gun on the way home. THAT makes a lot of sense. A nod to health!

On today’s show we have all that and more. Plus a couple of other things like a nutting device, something with Jell-O, and a pathetic device that is pussifying the boomer generation. Sad to see! But funny to hear. And that’s the way the show goes. Enjoy

Subscribe to YKS Premium today and find yourself smack dab in the middle of a very special month. Let’s just say the boys are very “animated” about it. And you can listen to it in your “car” if you “toon” the radio up a bit. Will that “movie” you to subscribe?

Three Hundred and ninety-four episodes of this crazy show. They should give out awards for that kind of thing. In fact, they do, I’ve decided. And oh yeah, we won one. The big award for having recorded 394 episodes (plus bonus eps). And we won the fuckin thing! We get to do whatever we want with it! I think it should go on our shelf with our other awards (Fark Prize for Excellence in Web Browsing, the big award for having recorded 393 episodes, 2nd place in mike’s work chili cook off). What do YOU think we should do with all our accolades from our distinguished careers?

On today’s show there sure is some silly stuff. And the episode is very long as well. Join us for it, won’t you? And our awards, as well?

We are helping mental health! We like to help our mental health! ←The Mental Health chant. Try it!

On today’s show we have a number of Kickstarters that can help our mental health. And not just because they make us laugh…although that sure don’t hurt! Unless you have broken ribs! Because you fell out of your uncle’s car! When he was trying to do “Uncle’s Trick”! Producer Dan backed one of them, if that tells you anything about where we’re at with it.
