Listen up! Baconsale is once again discussing their favorite scores, soundtracks and composers! Jacob will give Kent and Joel a category (such as most overrated soundtrack, best electronic score and guilty pleasure) and they must each pick a winner for that category. Plus, as an added twist, they are not allowed to pick any of the music they used in our last Soundtrack & Feels episode (Episode 74)...

Okay, here we go. Focus… Speed.... Find your super suit (no capes!) and just keep swimming, because Baconsale is ranking Pixar movies to infinity and beyond! Or at least from Toy Story to Cars 3. Kent may hate most of these movies and Jacob may -- SQUIRREL! -- be apathetic, but if you're a fan, you've got a friend in Joel. TRIGGER WARNING: The Hopper argument rears its ugly head once again. Press...

Vroom! Vroom! Baconsale is ready to review the Cars sequel that may actually be worth talking about. It takes us a while to get on the right track/subject, but soon we're talking about Lightning McQueen's future, Doc Hudson's past and if there was enough Mater in this movie. Did Kent hate it? Did Joel love it? Did Jacob actually see it? Press play and find out!

Who's your TV daddy? Yikes. That sounded a little creepy. Speaking of disturbing things, in this episode we're making your favorite dads from various television shows battle it out in a hypothetical no-holds-barred fight to the death. And we actually get through our entire bracket and declare a winner in one episode! We've brought in everyone from Herman Munster to Homer Simpson to determine who i...

Join our expedition as we dig deep into The Mummy movie. Kent and Joel saw the new film (not Jacob, though -- Kent wouldn't let him go) and are ready to talk about if Tom Cruise successfully began the Dark Universe franchise, or if he just looks really, really good while doing so. As always, we keep all spoilers under wraps during the first 10 minutes, so you can listen even if you haven't seen th...

Hera, give us strength! Baconsale is talking about Wonder Woman in this episode. And we brought along our good friend and clinical psychologist, Dr. Matt, to help us figure out what makes Princess Diana of Themyscira tick. And since we're discussing Wonder Woman, we're of course going to bring up Superman, Batman, Spider-Man, Lord of the Rings, Serenity and Star Wars. . . wait, what? We may get si...

Ooooh yeeaaah! We Can't Hardly Wait to rank the best and the worst high school movies! If you're Clueless about this genre, don't worry, we're here to help. Joel and Kent have each done Some Kind of Wonderful research, and are ready to Say Anything about these films. And while they may, at times, sound like a bunch of Mean Girls who have Never Been Kissed, we hope that you still give this episode...

Or does it belong in the depths of Davy Jones' locker? Press play to find out! Be warne...

We're not entirely sure how, but Jacob tricked Kent and Joel into doing another episode where he asks them a bunch of bizarre hypothetical questions to test their psyches while further proving he's a psycho. During this round of psychological experiments/torture, Kent and Joel must answer such questions as who they would save in a viral apocalypse, which celebrity they would switch bodies with and...

Have you ever gotten Deep Impact confused with Armageddon? Or mixed up A Bug's Life with Antz? If so, you're not alone! In this episode, we're pitting twin movies against each other in a series of versus battles, where we debate and decide which clone film is the stronger one. It's not always easy -- except for Jacob, who always sides with Kent -- but it's fun to watch Kent struggle as he has to d...

Hey, are you busy right now? Because…we were wondering…if…uh…you wanted to listen to our podcast sometime? Now that Kent is single and entering the dating world once again, it's time for Baconsale to talk about proper date etiquette. We've gathered courting do's and don'ts from both guys and girls as well as horror stories from you, the listener. Along the way, we discuss topics such as the Joel's...

Ooga chaka! Ooga-ooga! Ooga chaka! Ooga-ooga! Ooga chaka! Ooga-ooga! Ooga chaka! Ooga-ooga! We can't stop reviewing - each Marvel movie. Kent, he won't stop bashing - on anything non-DC.

In a world where every movie seems to be a remake, a reboot or a sequel, three men will do their best to guide you through the cinematic minefield. Baconsale has created their lists of which films they're most excited for during the summer of 2017, as well as the movies they want to bomb. Joel admits some mistakes he's made in the past, Jacob references "growly pants," and Kent banishes both of th...

Are you happy with how your favorite television show ended? Today Kent, Jacob and Joel are talking about the TV series finales they love, the endings they hate, and the final moments that left them scratching them heads. And while they're going to be spoiling some plot points of these shows, they'll try to let you know ahead of time if they're going to give mild spoilers, medium spoilers or spicy...

In the not too distant future, after you press play, you'll hear Baconsale discussing Mystery Science Theater 3000. Huzzah! If you've never seen MST3K, don't worry, we're here to introduce you to the world of Joel (Robinson), Mike, the 'Bots and the cheesy movies they watch. Joel (Hilton) is a big fan of the series, and Kent and Jacob are here to make sure Joel doesn’t get to carried away with his...

Our special guest Mark is back and he's revving to talk about The Fate of the Furious, the eighth (YES! 8th!) film in the Fast and the Furious franchise. Joel and Jacob do their best to contain Mark's excitement (because they haven't seen the film), whereas Kent just enables him. Join us as we forget all the characters' names and do our best to make sense of this stupidly entertaining movie.

And here we have Baconsale in its natural habitat: talking about movies. Not just any movies, though. They seem to be discussing documentaries. Kent, the critic of this species, has joined with Joel, the dominant comedian, to create a list of 10 non-fiction films that will help people understand that the word "documentary" does not necessarily mean that the movie will be boring or dry. In fact, th...

Believe it or not, Baconsale has officially made 100 episodes! We're celebrating this milestone by inviting three people onto the show (Jeff, Sam & Teri) who claim to listen to our podcast. And Jacob has created a semi-comprehensible pop culture quiz to pit these contestants against each other and, eventually, against Joel and Kent, a.k.a. "Team JK." Excitement! Confusion! Drama! Awkward silences!...

Do you have the time to listen to us whine about nothing and everything about 90s bands? Well, Hold My Hand because we're going to debate All the Small Things (and some Little Things) about some of your favorite alternative music artists once again in our March Madness-style tournament. In fact, it's time to end this Beautiful Disaster (*gasp* Say It Ain't So!), give our picks one Last Kiss and ma...

It's Morphin' time!. . .for Kent. Jacob and Joel didn't really watch the Power Rangers TV show. But they're ready to discuss the 2017 cash grab-- er, reboot. Kent geeks out a bit and shows his true fandom, while the other two try and comprehend what a Zord is. Is this movie a thrill ride for '90s fans? Or is it another desperate to exploit our wallets and our childhood? Press play and find out. An...

Look at these princesses, aren’t they all neat? Wouldn’t you think our collection’s complete? In fact, we’re going to rank a bunch of animated female protagonists (and deuteragonists) who aren’t in the official Disney princess line. No, we’re not just basing these rankings on their looks -- after all, we aren’t complete chauvinists -- but attractiveness is one of the criteria on our rating matrix....

Be our guest and listen to our review of the 2017 live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast. Kent tagged along on Joel's date with his wife to see the movie -- or Joel's wife ended up using Jacob's ticket, depending on your perspective -- and we are ready to give our spoiler-free and spoiler-full review of the latest Disney cash grab. Is Emma Watson the Belle of the ball? Did we shudder at the Be...

Come As You Are and listen to Baconsale's battle of 90s alternative bands. And while some of you may be saying Good Riddance to the grunge era, Kent, Joel and Jacob have been Desperately Wanting to do this for a while. We had So Much to Say, which is why this episode runs Everlong. And we don't mean to give you the Run-Around, but we don't go The Distance this episode. This is only part one Round...

It's time for Baconsale to discuss one of the most anticipated movies of this weekend -- Kong: Skull Island!
