After a riveting game of Paper, Rock, Scissors, Kent gears up to review the new Charlie’s Angels movie. This is, after all, the “rebooquel” everyone has been asking for. Right? RIGHT? And then we take a hard left into the dramatic historical film, Ford v Ferrari: Dawn of Justice. Kent may now be a car guy after watching this film, and he also talks about Matt Damon’s performance and Christian Bale’s weight.
Press play to hear another set of reviews from Kent, since he doesn’t take Jacob or Joel to screenings anymore.

It’s time for another Decade Dance, where Baconsale looks back at movies from the past 10 years and discusses the best of the best. This time around, we’re talking about comedies released between 2010 and 2019. It’s not easy to explain why a comedy is comical, but we’re sure going to try! Joel has a love-hate relationship with his list and it stressed him out to select his favorite funny films, but Kent is happy to cheer on the darkness and violence in his humorous hipster picks.

No, you’re not seeing double, Kent saw two sequels to popular 80s thrillers, and he’s ready to review both of them. Joel and Jacob didn’t attend these screenings, so they’re going to have to take Kent’s word on it as he talks about which Terminator sequels Dark Fate ignores, and if Doctor Sleep will make any sense if you haven’t seen The Shining. There are also no spoilers for either movie on air, but Kent is more than willing to spoil them off the air.
Come press play with us. And press play if you want to live.

Just for the taste of it, Baconsale has decided to rank and tier some of your favorite soft drinks! However, since there are so many sodas available today, we had to draw the line somewhere. Therefore, in this episode Kent Joel and Jacob are only going to be discussing Coke products (Coca-Cola, Fanta, Sprite), Shasta and a few independent brands. We also briefly recap the history of soda pop—starting way back in the 1800s, when it was considered to be a drug, until we arrive in modern times, when it’s still kind of considered to be a drug.
Obey your thirst. Press play.

This isn’t a trick, you’re getting treated to a special Halloween BaconBit! We did our Scary Date Night with Baconsale (lightning sound effect), and we’re going to talk about how it went. We are joined on this episode by Kelsey Watts, the winner of our October giveaway along with her friend, Rachel Carlson. Kelsey & Rachel joined us for dinner, where Joel stole all the rice, and then we all went to Nightmare on 13th Haunted House, where we almost froze to death and clowns smelled Kelsey’s breath.

The Halloween season and the year are winding to a close, so Baconsale is counting down the best horror films of the past decade. Kent and Joel have each picked their top ten scary movies that were released between 2010 and 2019, and they’re ready and willing to share them with you, the listener. Kent’s expresses his love for dark and disturbing slow-burn movies, whereas Joel lets you know which of his flicks need to be edited. We’re sad to see the month end, but we hope this episode will help you find some fun frights before October is over.
Take a breath. Count to ten. Press play. It’s time for Baconsale.

It must be the season of the witch, because Baconsale is discussing historical hags, creepy covens and spooky spell casters. This episode is all about traditional folklore, varieties of witches from around the world, and how the perception of witches has changed over the years. Kent and Joel are also here to help you and Jacob (who loves witches!) learn how to identify a person that is using witchcraft and how to protect yourself from their dark magic. Plus, as is tradition, we’ve created a lengthy list of witchy movies and will let you know if they are Baconsale-approved or not.
Press play or else I'll get you, my pretty, and your little dog too!

Few things get us into the Halloween spirit faster than eerie music, which is why on this episode of Baconsale, we’re talking spooky soundtracks! Kent and Joel have selected spine-chilling tunes for 13 horrific categories such as Theme You Never Wanted to Hear as a Kid, Creepiest Classical Piece, Worst Song to Play on a Date, Hipster Horror Pick and Most Annoying. Along the way, Kent tries to summon a demonic presence while Joel subliminally shares a recipe for German pancakes.

Kent and Joel made a book! A real-life book that people can actually purchase and read at home! It’s a children’s picture book called “Goodnight, Sleepy Zombie.” Joel came up with the idea to entertain his kids and Kent used his drawing skills to help bring it to life. . .eventually. Listen to hear how the process worked and why it took Joel over a decade to get his idea published (SPOILER ALERT: procrastination). Also, enjoy a live reading by the author, even though there are less than 50 words in the entire thing and the jokes are mostly visual.
And, after you press play and listen to this BaconBit, you can find the book on Amazon by searching for “Goodnight, Sleepy Zombie” or by clicking the link on Baconsale.com.

Let the Halloween season officially begin! Not a fan of scary movies? Well, then this episode of Baconsale is specifically for you! We’ve created a list of 13 horror films to help you ease into the genre, and hopefully give you a pleasant, yet spooky experience that will make you want to watch more. Joel chooses a bunch of softball horror-comedies to coddle our listener, whereas Kent feels like our listener is an adult who can take a little traumatizing terror in stride.
Blah, blah, blah, don’t be frightened and press play, blah, blah, blah.
