I’m new to Your Kickstarter Sucks. Does anyone have any particular highlights I should listen to? Otherwise, I’m just gonna scroll and grab episodes that sound funny and/or dumb 🤷🏻♂️

I'm gonna use your post to share my favorite bits I've captured over the years. I dont know if outofcontextYKS made it over to BlueSky or is still doing his thing.
I, like Mike, could not name a single previous Kickstarter from a single previous episode. In one ear out the other. Just start at the beginning, you won't remember them anyway.
I mean this with love for one of my favorite shows, but it really does not matter. It will just kind of wash over you like a wave and your lasting memory of any episode is going to be that it’s more water.
I love the ones with @howelldawdy.bsky.social and also DB reading the Derek Savage story about a guy driving his beautiful girlfriend around is particularly soothing
Based on the replies here, the answer is “all of them/any of them, it doesn’t matter”. I think I’m gonna start around 2020 and just listen chronologically, but I may end up starting further back.
So I just did a full run after discovering last year - basically I started ‘now’ and worked backwards, gives a certain surreal reverse ‘narrative’, and actually acts as an interesting little snapshot of different eras of culture and trends without having to plunge back to 2015
Fishy Flip, Dear Heaven, the 2023 Oscar bonus episode with @osullyville.bsky.social, and the most recent episode (“Soul Cube”) which features the now iconic “fat waiter” bit.
Honestly it’s good to just go through them sequentially to see how the show evolves, like how Mike I is replaced with Mike II and then eventually the current Mike, Mike III. Seeing the evolution of both hosts into deranged shut-ins with whatever disease Howard Hughes had. It’s great.
Do you know which episode has Mike's story about the cop knocking on his door because his neighbors called in a wellness check? I've been wanting to relisten to that for a while.
They make fun of Dan for constantly puking, shitting, jerking off, ordering McDonalds delivery, smoking indoors, and living in squalor. But what really offends him is the Italian stuff.

Thank you for all of the suggestions! 😊
their doughboy crossover eps are hilarious, too
