You Should Check Out

Happy New Year! In our first episode of 2023, we are back with brand new topics. Kat brings us to 1976 to the very intense, very drama-filled making of a legendary album; Rumours by Fleetwood Mac. She speaks about the betrayal, the relationships, the rampant drug use, while Jason dips his toe into the world of duelling. Like when a man offended you so you challenged him to s gun duel at sunrise? Y’know, the good ole days. We hope you enjoy our tangents and the very specific topics we’ve presented.

In our last episode of the year, we decided to try our hand at the Friendscast again. This time, we’re a little less drunk and a lot more focused. We explore an array of topics; some big, some small, some disturbing, and some cute. 2022 has been quite the year. It was beautiful and it was stressful but we’re still glad it happened. Thanks for sticking around. We love you and we appreciate you. Here’s to more wild things to check out in 2023! Happy listening! Follow us! @yscopodcast @itskatherineram @bruddahoule

This week, we bring you a classic episode of YSCO: Jason asks Kat if she’d like to rent a person or if she would like to be rented out. Kat tells Jason about the first ever camgirl, Jennifer Ringley AKA Jennicam. Jason introduces Kat to debucari, the rent-a-fat-person business in Japan along with the other kinds of people you could rent, while Kat goes into the Jennicam’s origin story and how what she did lead to the start of camgirls. We talk a little bit human connection and how much we crave it, and we get a lot of math wrong. All in all, this was a very fun episode to make and we hope you enjoy.

This week, we talk about some vastly different topics. Kat does a deep dive on Matthias Buchinger, a Jack of all Trades from the 18th century. He was a performer, an artist, a musician, an inventor, and a womanizer. He also had no arms and no legs. Jason goes back to his pervy roots by discussing Mpreg. The kink of seeing pregnant men.

How many times can we say that “we’re back”? Yes, we know, we fell off. Blame life! Blame capitalism! Blame literally anything else except for us. But guess what, we ARE back with the weird content you’ve been waiting for.
