YKS Premium S41E17: Pirates of the Caribbean: Cruise Line

I think we were going to talk about the John Tesh newsletter in this one, but the Humor Times was once again too funny that we simply didn’t have time. You’re not gonna get a better endorsement than that unless you paid Xzibit to say he has always been fascinated by shredded parmesan cheese or whatever.

I used to reply to paul lander on Bluesky and punch up his bad jokes, but I never even got a courtesy like. I unfollowed him after he kept reposting a racist AI thing about Wuhan

Nick kroll said the n word on comedy bang bang multiple times and I still don’t know how the fuck he gets a pass for it.

So did Gabrus, Besser, etc. I think most people were doing edgy bullshit back then so seeing them all switch up in 2016-2020 or whatever was kinda funny

On the channel that used to be TBS, when they’d play The Big Lebowski, they’d dub over that line with, “You see what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps?? You see what happens??” Next time, can you make that reference instead so my sense of humor feels validated?

I think the Epstein joke is that he forged his own suicide note for school and signed it with “Epsteins mom”… doesnt really track
