Your Kickstarter Sucks

by Jesse Farrar & Mike Hale

Mike Hale and Jesse Farrar comb through the crowdfunding dumpster to tell you what projects are worth supporting with your hard-earned dollar. So far, it's been absolutely nothing, but whether it's a social media website for dogs, a toilet brush that reminds you to drink more water, or 5,000 offensive card games, maybe something will eventually be good!

Episodes

  1. 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...

  2. 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.…

  3. 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...

  4. 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...

  5. 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...

  6. Episode 471: I Don't Want To Teach MyBobo Anymore with Kendra Wells

    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...

  7. Episode 470: Welcome To The Future Of The Baseball Hat with Chef Kevin Bartelt

    Deep in the Realm of the Fruglins…our intrepid hosts form a new idea. Regular YKS, but with guests! And with that, AuGuest is born. I guess that happened last year, but we’re doing it again. And this time…it’s personal. (?) Check out Chef Kevin’s Patreon for his new show, Let Us Cook! Including...

  8. Episode 469: Pureed Pumpkin Is Quite Mild And Flavorless On Its Own

    I almost forgot to post this one. But that probably doesn’t reflect on the quality of the episode, right? I just forgot what day it was. But that probably doesn’t reflect on me as a person or the type of life I live, right? It’s just normal stuff. Could happen to anyone. It probably has happened…

    more
  9. Episode 468: The Crowdfunding Junkies

    They should make more Star Wars movies. And by “they”, I guess I mean “whoever the fuck feels like it”. Hey it can’t be any worse than Rise of Skywalker, can it? Well, I thought that movie was decent. So it probably can be worse than that. Scary Movie was worse than it. So it stands to reason…

    more
  10. Episode 467: The Diaper Community

    Look, I’m tired as hell for this one. Let’s just agree that we talked about pee and poop the normal amount, we weren’t too mean, it was just boring enough to go to sleep to but not so dull that you wanna unsubscribe from the show, and we obviously don’t have depression. Plus, something funny...

  11. Episode 466: They Call Him Tater Salad

    All I want to talk about is the shit wizards…but I know that I can’t! Obviously they would use a big turd as a wand – but, again, I can’t talk about that right now. I need to, instead, focus on the important things, such as a podcast about Apple products. So that would probably be about the iPad…

    more
  12. Episode 465: Welcome to Congleton Town

    I hate my headphones. There’s no pictures on them!! Or it can’t take pictures, or something! The point is, I really hate my headphones. And I think the only way to solve this problem is to not buy headphones from one of the, like, 3 or maybe 5 headphones companies in the entire world, but just…

    more
  13. Episode 464: Take the Gut Quiz

    Saw a down-and-out in Seattle last night. His sign said not “I need food” or “I need a job” but “Take the gut quiz!”. What could this mean? 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....

  14. Episode 463: Cooking Is Not Just A Food

    What is this episode even about? Well, what do YOU want it to be about? With just a few taps. You can personalize your YKS episode to be about your favorite topic, customized for the day of the week, or even make a super duper special one for your birthday! That’s right, an episode of YKS all…

    more
  15. Episode 462: Chasing the Perfect Hot Dog

    Ah man. The raccoons got into the freaking crack again. And, yep, it’s making them do some really weird stuff, as you might expect. First of all, they’re raccoons. And to my understanding, them being wild animals, if there were enough of them stone cold sober, we might be in trouble. I don’t know...

  16. Episode 461: Your Gerbil’s Horoscope

    Oh ho ho well if it isn’t probably the 4th or 5th time I’ve started an episode description out with “Oh ho ho”. It’s weird because I do not talk like this in real life. I’ve probably never said those words in that order in my whole life. But there’s something about putting pen to paper that…

    more
  17. Episode 460: I Want Hokey Pokey

    Don't actually click on any of this crap I'm just copying and pasting it from the Diamond and Silk Show episode descriptions on Lindell TV. And also that's the way it looks on the site. I didn't format it weird. They made it look that weird. Well, I guess just Silk did. Because our beautiful...

  18. Episode 459: Hunt Fish Golf Drink

    Welcome, my grazy friends, to Pleasure Land! Well, unless someone else has already said the phrase “Welcome to…” before saying the name of some place, in which case I obviously heard that first and ripped them off. But until the call out thread we will simply move forward! On today’s show we have...

  19. Episode 458: PB&J Classic Grill and Bar

    My food is on the ground, my food is on the ground! If you listen closely, I’m making a sound! Tom Green voice. No but for real, what are we gonna do about all this food on the ground? There’s a piece of chicken in the dirt! There’s pizza in the mulch! There’s jalapeno poppers on the floor! (I…

  20. Episode 457: My Homie Has An Incredible Nose For Fragrance

    Hey everyone I’m the magic frog. You can call me whatever you want for now, because as soon as you turn away, all memory of me will be wiped clean from your simple human mind! Now, to the task at hand – you have a single wish (eh…inflation) that I will grant. Just say the word, and it will be...

  21. Episode 456: Monkey Adventures

    Start your adventure! As a Banana Buddy, you get your very own game key and an exclusive wallpaper to show you’re part of the jungle crew. Swing into action and join the Gigawix world! Plus, an ice maker for those always on the go. It’s a new YKS. Can you flippin believe that? After the weekend…

    more
  22. Episode 455: I’ve Farted and I Can’t Throw Up

    Well it’s 4/20 and of course that means we prepared something extra special for all our most herbaceous listeners! All we had to do was remember the date this episode was coming out, and plan something well in advance that hit the perfect note between disaffectedly sarcastic and downright...

  23. Episode 454: YKS Load Of The Month

    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...

  24. Episode 453: The Podcast That Follows You

    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...

  25. Episode 452: My Car is in the Movie

    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…

    more
  26. Episode 451: High School and Some College

    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…

    more
  27. Episode 450: Dan’s Apartment

    (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! Which, in this...

  28. Episode 449: The Absurd Appeal of Spongebob

    Not every Apple Watch is trapped on the wrist…the new “It all starts with a shift”, or “Pets always can’t make us stop hugging them”? Only time will tell. And you can see the time by looking at your old watch which you have shoved into a Game Boy case and put on your nightstand for some reason....

  29. Episode 448: We’re Gonna Make You Sick

    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...

  30. Episode 447: Two 40 Year Olds Made An Amazing Podcast All By Themselves

    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.…

    more
  31. Episode 446: Top 10 Rarest Labubu

    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…

    more
  32. Episode 445: Boosting Crotch Dimensions

    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...

  33. Episode 444: A Serious Moment with Bubbles the Chimp

    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…

    more
  34. Episode 443: Let’s Get Some of that Sauce

    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...

  35. Episode 442: Excursion to the Donkey Valley

    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…

    more
  36. Episode 441: The Most Stinkiest Celebs

    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...

  37. Episode 440: I Really Need The Gong Soon

    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...

  38. Episode 439: UNLOCKED! Farrarch 3: Bob’s Burgers with Paul F. Tompkins

    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...

  39. Episode 438: UNLOCKED! Miketober 666 - Demons with Jon Gabrus

    Well it’s 3 days before Xmas and the boys are taking a little bit of a break. 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...

  40. Episode 437: The Big Booty Cousin

    Brew Joy to the world, the ep has come! Let Earth go rent some bees! It’s nearly that special season so I thought it would be fun to take a couple of the projects from this week’s episode and put them into a familiar tune. Can you guess the song, projects, or season I’m talking about? Great!…

    more
  41. Episode 436: Science Said Hold My Beer

    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,...

  42. Episode 435: Podcasts for Men

    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...

  43. Episode 434: Communist Smurves

    Why in the hell is this one called Communist Smurves? I don’t really remember but you gotta admit, that is a lot of freakin fun to think about haha. Don’t ask me to explain any of it, either, mmkay? Let’s just kick back, relax, and let some Belgian guy do the damn thing with some crazy cartoons!...

  44. Episode 433: It’s Not Just An Episode of YKS, It’s Something Else

    What do you get when you cross a couple of crazy guys, one crazy website, and the crazy news in the world today? Well, let’s just say this…it makes for one crazy show. And YOU get to listen to it. Right here, right now. The only problem? At some point it will be over. But then? There’s always…

    more
  45. Episode 432: This Episode Is A Testament of God’s Favor

    Last night I was trying to think of something to get mad about and I came up with “sometimes if you have a car that has a push button ignition it’s sort of hard to tell if it’s all the way on or just in accessory mode.” I know there’s a lot of bad stuff happening in the world, but I’m kind of...

  46. Episode 431: I Am And Will Always Be Just Simply A Basball Player,My Tomb Stone Will Just Say. Baseball.

    The only sponge you don’t have to fold! Cute pets always can't help us make hugging them. It all starts with a shift. And all the rest. They’re our friends, these little sayings. So we will ask to smell their balls on the set of our TV show and, I guess, still keep making the TV show. Oh well!...

  47. Episode 430: Drunk Driving And Sucking On A Pickle

    Engaging Episode Description Protocol C.R.A.Z.Y – Comedy wRiting And Zany…Yep! 10-4. Protocol fully engaged. Deploying tactical laugh gas and precision funny bone homing missiles. Target is median age 45 information technology administrator with generalized anxiety disorder and compulsion to eat...

  48. Episode 429: Starting Dialogue with Pants

    Listen up. It’s the show. And, what’s more, this is the description of it. 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. Social Media by Maddalena Alvarez. Executive Producer Tim Faust...

  49. Episode 428: Baby Bear Teddy The Cuddly Bear

    There should be a way to just have a single ordinary thought and immediately have it translated into a physical manifestation of my misunderstanding of what “Art” is! And it should be RIGHT NOW because I have to go to the CAR DEALERSHIP later! Well, luckily, that seems to be the only problem...

  50. Episode 427: Everyone Deserves The Option To Enjoy A Carbonated Treat

    Snoopy and the gang are going for a ride in the new Chrysler Pacifica. And why not! They’re ostensibly children, despite being something like 80 years old by this point, so there’s simply no doubt they would take full advantage of the best-in-class technology and entertainment on offer in the...
