Episode 566: Bugging Out (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Imagine this: you’re sitting comfortably on your couch, snug as a bug in a rug, when you start to feel a slight tickle on your arm. You lift the blanket to find a creepy-crawly pest resting on you. How would you react? That’s the question we’re asking on this episode of Baconsale. Joel, Kent, and Zack have created a list of 24 bugs (including ants, spiders, moths, flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches, grasshoppers, bees, and ladybugs) and we’re going to tier them according to how much they would cause
Episode 565: The Baddest Non-Disney Villain (Tournament Finals) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We’re back (A Dinosaur's Story) to finish what we started and finally determine… who some of these animated characters are. After all, these should now be the better-known villains of the non-Disney bunch, right? And then, after we can clearly picture these individual antagonists, we’ll do our best to argue who would win in a fight to the death. This will, of course, lead to a number of random side conversations, including a whole discussion about healthcare plans and a couple conspiracy theorie
Episode 564: Tournament of Non-Disney Villains (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Why should Disney villains have all the fun? On this episode of Baconsale, we’re turning the spotlight on evil, animated antagonists from other film studios such as DreamWorks (Lord Farquaad, Tai Lung), Illumination (Vector, Bowser), Fox (Soto, Hexxus), and even some Don Bluth productions (Rasputin, Sharptooth). You may not remember some of these characters, but that’s okay because we didn’t either. However, we’ll remind you of which movie they’re from, what they look like, and what their crimes
Episode 563: Breaking Bad Boys (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On this episode of Baconsale, we are the danger, because we’re entering the Gilliverse (Vince Gilligan’s Island?) and discussing Breaking Bad, El Camino, and Better Call Saul. We’ll begin by Gliding Over All with a spoiler-free history of each show. We’ll then use our Gray Matter to analyze characters such as Saul Goodman, Jesse Pinkman, Kim Wexler, Mike Ehrmantraut, Gus Fring, and the Cancer Man himself: Walter White/Heisenberg. Once we’re given the Green Light, we’ll take the Gloves Off and go
Episode 562: End of 2026 Movie Preview (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s Sunrise on the Reaping of fall movies for Baconsale. Joel, Kent, and Zack have searched the Wildwood of the web and Hope to help you know which films are going Open World before the end of the year. We’ve used some Practical Magic 2 choose five films we want to avoid, and five (Minus Zero) that belong in Primetime. We’ll do our best to not act like an Ebenezer or make it sound like Doomsday in the theaters, but The Social Reckoning may happen and we may be taken over by some sort of Residen
