YKS Premium S41E15: Kevin Bacon Becomes Kevin Bean

Katy Perry Teams Up With Controversial Niche Podcast To Promote The Importance Of Good Sleep

“I just love sleep,” said the “Firework” singer, “and as I embark on my 40s, good quality sleep has become even more important.” That’s why, she says, she partnered with Mike and JF of YKS – to make sure 40 year olds get better sleep when it counts – every single night.

“We’re really fucking stupid,” says host JF, whose simple smile belies exactly how stupid he really is. “Yeah,” added his partner Mike, “We don’t really get what’s going on.”

But Perry is no stranger to the limelight…and red light! “When I put on my recovery mask, the very next thing I do is start up an episode of YKS,” she says. “Sometimes it’s one where they’re drunk and depressed. And other times they seem almost bored with the premise of their own show, which doesn’t make a lot of sense.” No matter! “Either way, I’m sawing logs before they even get to the whatever pack. I don’t even know what that is!”

Neither do we, Katy. But we can’t wait to find out…in Dream Land!

With the got beef dork. If you’re so lazy with every other part of your business, I’m not trusting you to keep everything above board with your fucking food product.

If you have money to float for a second and want a chair, order that sumbitch and request a refund. They do not want an assembled chair back after you find some problem that you can find. 😉

What's interesting about Kevin Bacon becoming Kevin Bean is that sometimes a can of beans will have bacon in with the beans. Really makes you think.

I don’t want to jinx anything, but with this episode format it feels like the boys might have stumbled upon their second idea.
