YKS Premium S36E7: Mike and Jesse Have a Podcast

Several hundred episodes in, perhaps we have perfected the podcasting art form with YKS. But there was a time, believe it or not, when all we had was a theme song, a blank Google doc, and a dream. We never recorded an episode with our original micro-premise, but if we did, it would have sounded a little something like this…(with worse microphones)

Important message for Dan: having worked at a Canadian McDonalds (probably the same in the US), three sugars in a large coffee is way more sugar than he thinks it is and I have no idea how he doesn’t taste it. The machine dispenses sugar in proportion to the size of the drink. 3 sugars in a small ≠ 3 sugars in a large.

According to the DoorDash calorie count, 3 sugars ranges from 105 Cals (small) to 210 Cals (XL). Large is probably around 180 Cals, which makes it sweeter than a Coke

Im eating a floppy burnt slice while listening to this but I’m in Australia and they have no idea how to make a pie. They even fuck up Pizza Hut down here.

You guys are breaking my heart with the pizza and brownie opinions. Controversial ep!

Johnny Depp shot his “friend” out of a cannon? Are you talking about Hunter S Thompson’s ashes??

Identifying the point in time where the pod catches up to current headlines is going to be a fun little treat to look forward to
