Your Kickstarter Sucks

Get a load of this one, bub! It’s an episode of the show we have all grown quite fond of over the years…with some guys on there, and some fun with a website, and hey who knows, maybe even a couple of laughs as well. If we’re lucky! And oh boy, I think we are! On today’s show we’ve got some good stuff for the army guys, which is awesome, and some bible stuff – love that. But it wouldn’t be today’s episode without some kinda weird cartoon thing…you already know! Those crazy cartoons…what will they get up to this time? Only the YKS boys know for sure! In fact, some might say they’re a couple of cartoons their own selves! But that’s a story for another time. Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle.

Listen to the show, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell! Or perhaps we already are! On today’s episode of YKS, recorded BEFORE Easter – so we won’t be talking very much about Easter or describing our Easter festivities this year in any terms other than pure guesses and maybe some hopeful wishes about the holiday to come – the eggless docket serves us up some rather “hoppy” tales of entrepreneurship and creativity. Take, for instance, the butt razor that has 2 razors on it so you can stick it up your butt. And, of course, all the rest. Have an “egg”tastic day, everybunny. - YKS Management Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin.

I wish I had come up with “Smart Beer”. That’s such a funny idea. But some business dick beat me to it. I wonder if I’m losing my fastball. Oh, no, I guess I’m not, because my copy of All The Pain That Money Can Buy is right here on my CD shelf! I’d like to see some Wharton stiff come up with that. But they could never. They probably don’t even know that Fastball frontman Tony Scalzo came up with the idea for the song after reading articles that described the June 1997 disappearance of an elderly married couple, Lela and Raymond Howard from Salado, Texas,[6] who left home to attend the Pioneer Day festival at nearby Temple, Texas, despite Lela's Alzheimer's disease and Raymond recently recovering from brain surgery. But I’m smart so I did. Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin. YKS is edited by Producer Dan.

Now I’m just a simple country iced tea drinker, but it seems to me that if you want to drink iced tea, there are some crucial components to such a refreshing beverage. Oh actually nevermind that I’d rather talk about the soul food place I went to this week where a real bumpkin looking customer was asked “Are you a tea drinker?” and he got a free sample of the sweet tea. After hemming and hawing over the availability of sweet ‘n’ low, he relented and the two men began talking about going to the chiropractor to fix their backs. The customer said he went once a week! He was wearing compression socks! That’s a no bueno situation, indeed. But enjoy the tea, my friend. It was made in a volcano. Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin. YKS is edited by Producer Dan.

(David Attenborough voice) Bitch…you live like this?? Recorded from Producer Dan’s home studio in beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia, it’s the return of YKS: No Plans Edition, in which we kind of just fumble around the website and get sidetracked by whatever else is going on!

Hey everyone! Thanks for “March”ing into the episode haha. Well obviously I’m in a silly mood today, and when you hear about these Kickstarters, I think you’ll know why! But for this one, you “Must Love Dogs”! Because two of them are about dogs. And I was just thinking about that movie I’ve never seen before. I’m not even sure who’s in it. And I bet it sucks. But when it comes to talking about movies that suck, I will save the vast majority of my energy for Farrarch! Coming up this Friday on YKS Premium!

I honestly can’t believe it. These two old guys put out another podcast. And they do it basically every week! Now, it’s not really about anything in particular. And it embarrasses them if you bring it up. Most people seem to use it to go to sleep. But like…wow! Lots of people don’t do podcasts. And these guys did. At the end of the day, yeah, it sucks, but they still did it! Plus, a different guy did a lot of the work. But still.

There is good in this world…take my little robot vacuum, for instance. No, don’t! I love him! But really though. He’s just doing his thing. Sucking up dirt and wiping the floor and only driving through dog doo doo one time in his whole life and never again. Then he goes back to his hole and throws up the dirt and pees out the yucky water and falls asleep for 23 hours. In a way, isn’t that what we all do? (Guy who is being driven insane by technology except it’s his robovac and not an AI girlfriend): Yep. We are not so different, my vacuum and I. Not so different at all. Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle. Additional research by Zeke Golvin. YKS is edited by Producer Dan.

He drops back…taking his time…locates his target…and boom! The connection is made! That’s right, the connection between podcast file and RSS feed, of course! And with that, another historic episode of YKS has been posted, and JF has showered DB with the celebratory Sports Electrolyte Drink. What color was it? Well it was either red or green…let’s ask that fool!! Nah but that was a lot of fun. And so is this episode! Except just like this weekend, the best part is the ads and the halftime show (Producer Dan chugging a gallon of Aquafina).Music for YKS is courtesy of Howell Dawdy, Craig Dickman, Mr. Baloney, and Mark Brendle.

If Bubbles the Chimp were here today, I like to think he would say “Hey man, YKS is, like, my favorite podcast, dude!” And I just remembered that he is alive, but I guess I meant “here” in the sense of like, being right beside me. Which would frankly be terrifying. I don’t want to be anywhere near a chimp. With all due respect to chimps, of course! They seem to have a lot to offer the world, and it’s certainly difficult to deny their charms, but a safe distance is preferable as far as I’m concerned. Alright now, let’s see, what is this episode about? Says here it’s about computers coming to life and kissing us. Well that will certainly be an interesting tale!

Alright, the power’s out and the heat’s off. Let’s not use up the last bit of our phone battery hotspotting the laptop to write some long drawn out episode description gag where I replace the lyrics to Jidenna’s breakout hit “Classic Man” with stuff about doing a podcast. But like, it would be really easy. I’m a Podcast Man. You can be me with an SM7b. I’m a Podcast Man. And oh yeah I’m dressed really fuckin annoying too. And I’m swirling around a microphone cord even though that could damage the microphone. “The bad boy of podcasts”. Me.

Mike said he was sick for this one. I don’t know. He didn’t seem sick to me. He seemed suspiciously at the top of his game. And thank goodness for that. Because we needed all his powers for this episode – one full of fun, mirth, and madness! And some Kickstarters as well. To wit: a doctor trying to become a content creator, our favorite Kitchen Idiots, a watch that doesn’t work, and more. Oh and just as a cautionary note, I’d tell you to watch out for Mike coughing and sneezing a lot on this episode, but he didn’t do it at all. So.

P.U. ain’t just a university anymore, folks! It’s the premiere destination online for stinky celeb rankings, and honestly now that I’m typing it out I’m pretty mad I didn’t just make the site and paywall it instead of making a joke about it. I wanna make some money off stink freaks! Well, whoever does it just put me in the credits of the site, but like, make it clear I’m not into it. I just helped with the idea and vibe coded the CSS.On today’s show we have those aforementioned stinky pits and their ultimate enemy: Italian Soap Scientists, plus a new kind of underwear for people afraid of their own bodies, and of course, your table has a brain now.

It’s 2026…are we really still doing podcast episode descriptions? I mean, come on! It should be AI! Or it should be some guy on the other side of the world that we’re just saying is AI. It should be at least that. UGH! Fine. I will write it. But it WON’T be good. On this episode of YKS there’s a dog…uh, thing. Honestly this was recorded last month I don’t remember what these were, save for one. I really really don’t like the guy making the podcast about bringing people together. Well, I guess I should say I don’t like the podcast, not that I don’t like him. I don’t know him. And actually I didn’t really listen to the podcast, either, so that hardly seems fair. If I really think about it, what’s causing me to have this reaction to him? Resentment…jealousy…just the way I was brought up? Gosh, I’ve never really thought about it. But now that I have, I have decided to change my mind. I’m now in favor of stupid fucking fake crap you put online for clout. And with that, enjoy this episode of Crap Shit Sucks: The As

It’s almost New Year’s, and we’re unlocking a New Fear – that of a New Episode of YKS NOT being re-released. But we’re also unlocking something else simultaneously, which makes this little linguistic flair quite apropos after all! That’s right, it’s UNLOCKED EPISODE time! And for this week, we revisit one of the year’s best with one of the world’s best – Bob’s Burgers with Paul F. Tompkins. This time, the video is here for everyone to enjoy, along with about 20 extra minutes of me sounding like a psycho. So sit back, relax, and “toon” in. And out. And in. And out.

So here’s a recent classic YKS Premium – now with 23 minutes of B-B-B-Bonus Content – unlocked and with video, if you haven’t seen that shit before. But something you SHOULD have seen before is 1985’s Demons, some very wonky Italian horror that basically don’t play by the rules.

Are you ready for a risqué musical parody of a podcast episode? Well bud, you’re in the wrong RSS feed. There’s hardly anything risqué about this episode of “The Poopy Wiener Show”, and barely any songs or jokes. It’s mostly just 3 guys talking through their feelings as they navigate the crazy, mixed-up world we live in today. Just kidding. It’s about steampunk cocoa and using the computer to break up with your boyfriend. In other words? Uh yeah.

It would be funny if we had a guy called Meatball on the show. Hey Meatball…what are you doin? Meatball, how was your weekend? Meatball, what the HELL do you think about that? Oh Meatball. But, we don’t have that. And that is why the show sucks. Speaking of which, on today’s show, we have two projects about hooters but kind of from the opposite end of the spectrum, and some dumb crap you’d get someone you don’t like that much for Christmas. Which is coming up, by the way! Maybe they’d like a Gift subscription to YKS Premium instead, which is now available at Patreon.com/yourkickstartersucks/gift. Or maybe they are a Scrooge!
