Baconsale

After years of war, no one could stand between Kent and Sir Christopher Nolan’s new epic, The Odyssey. And since fortune favors the brave, Kent and Zack have seen this fantasy action film and are ready to share the tale of their cinematic adventure into sanitized mythology. We won’t spoil anything at the beginning of […]

In brightest day, in blackest night, no bad superhero movie shall escape our sight. Because we asked you, the listener, to research spiders in the Amazon and give us your worst offerings from Marvel, DC, and every other corner of comic book adaptations. Now, dig on this: Joel and Kent are going to build a […]

We’ve been staring at all these Disney live-action remakes ‘long as we can remember, never really knowing why they keep making them. But they do, and Joel and Kent are now ready to review the flesh & blood adaptation of Moana. Yes, we’re going to spoil it because it’s the story you already know from […]

On this episode of Baconsale, a throwaway joke from our fruit tiering episode has now become a reality. Joel, Kent, Zack, and our friend Babs have created a list of 18 varieties of nuts & seeds (THAT’S A LOT OF NUTS!) and are going to be ranking them based on taste, texture, and the ability […]

On Baconsale Episode 503, Joel, Kent, and Zack shared some of the best and worst debut albums of popular bands. Now, we’re following up that conversation with a direct sequel. It’s going to be more personal, a little darker, and somewhat edgier. First of all, we’re going to discuss the second albums of the artists […]

The Toy Story franchise has been so successful that it’s time for a reboot/spin-off! On this episode of Baconsale, Joel, Kent, and Zack will be playing the classic game of M.A.S.H. to create another cash-grab, er, sequel for this animated film series. A random number generator will determine who is directing our movies, what toys […]

Welcome to Earth in 1996, listener! On this episode of Baconsale, we’ve got cows because we’re talking about movies that were released 30 years ago. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to listen to Joel, Kent, and Zack, choose their personal Mt. Rushmore of ’96 films. Following that, things will get topsy […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

It’s time to celebrate another year of Baconsale! Our returning Listener, Taylor, is here to defend his title against two worthy opponents: Kris and KP. The three of them will take on trivia questions covering such topics as parody films, cookies, sauces, song lyrics, TV episodes, and general Baconsale knowledge. Zack and Babs will guide […]

Everybody Have Fun Tonight, because Baconsale is ready to chat about songs that turn 40 years old this year. Bad Boy Kent, Danger Zone Zack, and selfish Sledgehammer Joel have all picked a tune for each category. It wasn’t easy to select only ten songs, because sometimes we get caught in a Bizarre Love Triangle […]

Chips Ahoy! On this episode of Baconsale, we’re chewin’ (Oreo, rather, crunchin’) a bunch of store-brand cookies. We bravely navigated the cookie aisle in the supermarket and purchased 21 of the popular snacks. Joel binge-ate them with his family, while Zack and Kent (the cookie bullies) spread their taste testing out over a week or […]

One Last Time, Baconsale is going to be discussing 2010s pop stars. We have to Humble ourselves a little and Take Care during this tournament, because while we may not Treasure some of these artists, there are a Million Reasons why they’re beloved by others. As we fill in each Blank Space on the bracket, […]

With this BaconBit, Baconsale is going to revive the ballet and opera industries. None of us sat down and fully watched the 98th Academy Awards this year, but we all watched the most important clips, including the touching tribute to Rob Reiner and the random comedy bits that were Frankensteined together throughout the ceremony. To […]

When it comes to tournaments, this isn’t the First of the Year, but Ain’t It Fun to do a bracket for popular music of the 2010s? Some of these bands found International Love, some are only famous because of TiK ToK, and some still Run the World, but we’re going to Carry On and Try […]

With the 98th Academy Awards coming up, it’s time, once again, for Baconsale to describe the various nominees since people haven’t seen most of these films (including most of us). Joel, Kent, and Zack are also going to be making their predictions about who is going to win each category, but this year, there’s a […]
