Episode 315: A Lean Two Hours Seven Minutes

[Woulda been even leaner but we left the ads outta this one]

Would you like to play a game? As kids, we sure did! But you’ll be surprised to learn that Mike and I grew up a little bit differently. Smirk. I’m so inexperienced in classic gaming I thought Escape From Monkey Island was a Jane Goodall biopic. But I digress. On today’s show, Producer Dan poops in a Gatorade bottle (just seeing if he reads these), we confirm the existence of a freaky mail carrier, and we move to Ireland to avoid income tax. Plus, we’re keeping our Altoids safe on the beach (coulda used that last month!), we’re picking up puke, and we’re finally revisiting the amazing world of South Park. I wonder what they’d say if they were still producing episodes today! Ah! Probably something like “My pronouns are Cartman.” I have now been hired for the show. Enjoy.

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.

Minus 5 bucks is cool. But you know what’s even cooler? Minus 8 bucks! The Squeeze Louise tier can help you become even cooler with access to video episodes, extra bonus mailbag shows, merch discounts and more. Just throw on some shades, unbutton the top button, and upgrade today!

Omg, I played castle of the wind all the time as a kid. There’s a version now that you can play in-browser.

If I remember correctly you all did briefly mention the Uncle Stan Kickstarter on the show just once and said you all really have nothing to say about it but only mentioned it so people would stop sending you it.

I heard Dan say he was trying sabotage the show. He was at the bar describing his plan to ruin YKS. When he finished, he went silent as a single tear rolled down his cheek. He faintly whispered "this is for mother Italy..." Just a heads up love the show

He hates good TV shows, too. I think he does it to mentally toughen himself.
