What? Two BaconBit episodes in one week? We must love you, listener. OR...Kent and Joel really, really wanted to talk about the new A Wrinkle in Time movie. But why? Did they feel like it was a beautiful adaptation of a beloved novel finally brought to the silver screen? Or did they find this film to be a huge mess of color, CGI and close-ups that is doomed to fail? Only Giant Space Oprah knows for sure.
Press play to tesser to the world of Baconsale!

Now that the 90th Academy Awards are over and done with, it's time for Kent and Joel to compare their answers and see who got the most right and who wins the coveted Caveman Burger. But wait! What's this? Jacob has submitted answers as well? And he had over a week and a half longer than the other two to prepare his ballot? Hmmmm, that seems a little shady…

About 77 episodes ago we discussed some of the most overrated things on the planet. Now, however, Baconsale is going the opposite direction—we're talking about underrated things. No, Kent, we don't mean guilty pleasures and no, we don't want your hipster picks, either (he has a hard time with that). Our categories today include undervalued boy band members, sitcoms, disco songs, Disney sidekicks, kids TV shows and more!
And we hope you never underestimate how much we love it when you hit that play button!

Get excited! Baconsale is ready to try and muster up some enthusiasm for the 90th Academy Awards! Even though our brains aren't working (we can't read!), we're still going to make predictions about who is going to get an Oscar for acting, directing, writing, sound mixing and the rest of the 24 categories. And with a Caveman Burger on the line, the stakes have literally never been higher.
Press play to hear us struggle with how to keep the topic of "fish love" family friendly, reveal who loves Christopher Nolan more and debate how Willem Dafoe could whistle and smile at the same time.
Plus, you can make your own predictions for the 2018 Oscars and possibly win a lunch with Baconsale.

After discovering differences between Kent and Joel's dating styles during last week's episode, Baconsale has decided to roll the dice and determine who is the better dater—or rather, who is the better Kent. Jacob has created another Choose-Your-Own-Adventure/Dungeons-&-Dragons-style story about meeting a girl and going on a first date, and he brought along Zack to keep score and help declare a winner.
Press play to hear Kent & Joel try to win, and try their best to not sing along to La La Land and Hamilton!

Wakanda forever! Or is it? Kent, Joel and Jacob are ready to review the first big movie of the year, Black Panther. But will Kent's deeply ingrained hate of Marvel bleed into his feelings for the world of T'Challa, vibranium and Martin Freeman? Will Jacob have clear feelings about his feelings for this film? And will Joel rate using letters or stars? All these questions and more will be answered on this BaconBit!
Oh, and don't worry, the first 15 minutes are spoiler free! Listen away!

Look into our eyes and you will see what these songs mean to us, because today Baconsale is talking about some of our favorite love songs. We're picking some of the most romantic (and cheesy) tunes for a series of categories, such as best duet, most overplayed and the song that defines our dating years. SPOILER ALERT: Kent is awkward and sweaty around women, whereas Joel has been kissing girls since elementary school. . .but he still acts pretty weird at dances.
Press play to enjoy this episode—and we hope you do because everything we do, the listener, we do it for you.
And go to Baconsale.com for the Spotify playlist of the love songs mentioned in this episode.

Kent and Joel have different approaches when it comes to upcoming movies. Joel is satisfied with watching one film trailer, whereas Kent likes to dig in, read articles, check out leaked set photos and possibly read the screenplay beforehand. But which way is right? Do you enjoy a movie more if you know less about it? Or would you rather get the whole story in advance?
Press play to hear the back and forth between these two styles of movie-watching preparation, and to hear Joel give Kent a daunting challenge.

When it comes to others' taste in film, Baconsale has no problem criticizing the choices some people make. But now it's time to open up, make ourselves vulnerable and divulge our favorite guilty pleasure movies. Kent, Joel and Jacob each present five flicks they're ashamed to love. . .and then proceed to mock each other relentlessly.
Press play and listen as we discuss box office bombs we adore, critical failures we find fascinating and cinematic duds we dutifully defend.

Mother! Bring me a Baconsale episode! And make it about cold cereal! Today we're tiering your favorite crispy, crunchy, fruity, chocolatey & marshmallowy breakfast cereals from Kellogg's, Post and General Mills. And while sugary cereal didn't really enter Jacob's world until he was an adult, Kent and Joel embark on a nostalgia trip and find themselves agreeing on their rankings more often than not.
