    Episode 451: High School and Some College

    23/03/2026 | 1h 35 mins.
    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.

    Episode 450: Dan’s Apartment

    16/03/2026 | 1h 54 mins.
    (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 case, mostly means looking for various “pens”. It’s good.

    Episode 449: The Absurd Appeal of Spongebob

    09/03/2026 | 1h 38 mins.
    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. Until then, we’ll always have hot swappable, quick reload boba tea cups – for the tactical milkshake drinker on the go!

    Episode 448: We’re Gonna Make You Sick

    02/03/2026 | 1h 33 mins.
    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! Hooray!

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

    23/02/2026 | 2h 7 mins.
    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. Pretty cool.

    It’s the last week to sign up for YKS Premium at discounted prices! The next Farrarch dropping in March means there’s simply too much good content to give away at its 2017 value. Get over to Patreon.com/YourKickstarterSucks and lock in your $5 or $8 monthly subscription forever!
