Episode 463: Cooking Is Not Just A Food

[Place your prediction on YKSMarket about whether or not this episode has ads!]

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 about your special day. Mike opens up the episode (how unusual!) by singing “Happy Birthday”, using the traditional melody, when all of a sudden Producer Dan jumps in with his super cool traphop remix. And when Howell makes a special appearance, you know this karaoke birthday party is just getting started! Then it’s time for presents, cake, and group photos to make sure this memory lasts a lifetime. Then JF walks in to clean up and everyone takes turns spitting on him and kicking. It gets pretty violent. That’s a lot of blood.

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.

Breast milk does in fact taste incredibly sweet. Very thin and watery too. JF has three kids and he's never tried it? Come on dude

Fuck you the tangerine sours rock. Piss me the fuck off. You guys make me listen the worst podcast ever for like a half an hour and then you shit on tangerine sours. I guess I'll just go fuck myself.

Dude blows goats by default based on what I'm hearing from y'all, but that Nate Bruhgraspy fella was at the Trump MMA bullshit apparently. Dude's like the Tab Cola of MAGA, so fuck that guy.

The most popular podcasts on earth are the exact same structure as YKS but hosted by stupider people who don’t tell any jokes. Wild

Ill be honest the OF stuff was pretty funny, but the "Go Fund Yourself" was so low-rent, stupid, and nasty that i had to always turn that shit off like halfway thru

hey, i left the opening voicemail. for reference i was moments away from falling asleep but saw the headline about NATELAND and knew I had to get the word out. forgot i left the voicemail till now, but glad you spent seemingly 25 full minutes listening to that shitty podcast. was genuinely hoping it would be the full episode. maybe next time

They read my same question to them at the end of the Rarest Labubu episode but they didn't answer it. Thank you for the VM and putting it this back on their radar. Well, they did answer it, but we didn't get the NATELAND bashing I was waiting for.

I know this isn’t really the right venue for this comment but I just wanted to give a HUGE shout out to Apple Podcasts for innovating on the tired old “back 15 seconds” button by having it actually skip forward like half the time. And for making it so the pause button will sometimes skip forward like a minute for no reason whatsoever. Nobody does it like Apple, much love!!
