This week we welcome the incredible KT Carlisle, author of the YA paranormal thriller I Know What I Saw. KT takes us through Bigfoot country, emotional survival, found family, horror folklore, and how growing up in rural Vermont shaped her storytelling. We also get deep, chaotic, and occasionally unhinged (Bigfoot erotica, anyone?).

In this episode:
• Farewell to Sink Pickle
• Dina’s cult paintball eye-trauma incident
• Bigfoot stories & cryptid folklore
• Why KT moved 30+ times
• Tornado survival & the anxiety of sirens
• YA writing, trauma representation, & emotional honesty
• The powerful reason KT donates all book royalties
• Bigfoot Erotica dramatic reading in a Minnesota accent
• Storytime: small-town horror, and Costco cart drama

About KT Carlisle
KT is the author of I Know What I Saw, a YA paranormal murder mystery rooted in Bigfoot folklore and 90s vibes. Her next novel, Intuition, dropped Halloween 2025. She co-hosts Our Relationship With Writing podcast and donates all book proceeds to the National Domestic Violence Hotline.

We’re BACK, weirdos! After a short hiatus, the Don’t Make It Weird crew returns with indie comic creators Stephen and Anthony, the brains (and butts) behind the hilarious and heartfelt series We Have Issues.

This week’s episode is stacked with storytelling chaos, off-the-rails games, and more conspiracy than a TikTok rabbit hole. Featuring:

🧼 Danq’s Shower Thoughts – Prepare for unsolicited wisdom, personal revelations, and a deeply uncomfortable energy.
🧠 Dina’s TikTok Conspiracy Corner – Birds, billionaires, and bonkers theories that just might be true.
🎭 DMIW ChatGPT Theater – AI-generated scenes performed live… with the dramatic flair of caffeinated weirdos. This week, it's the Breakup that Destroyed the World.
🖊️ Interview with Stephen & Anthony – We dive into the origin and evolution of We Have Issues, the power of creative friendship, and what it’s like making comics with kids around.
🫣 Cringey Copulation – One of the most awkward “romantic” scenes ever read aloud. You're welcome and we’re sorry (not sorry).

Dina made a grave mistake—she deleted TikTok when the ban lasted a whole 12 hours, and now she can't get it back. Meanwhile, Sean and Daniel get sucked into the Blake Lively vs. Justin Baldoni legal drama, Dina discovers her fear of clowns may not be entirely what she thought, and Daniel once again fails at names—this time, butchering Dina’s book title beyond recognition.

But that’s just the beginning. We also debate whether Lego people are zombie necromancers, break down Ryan Reynolds' alleged script rewrites, and, most importantly, launch a telethon for Dina’s Neopets doubloon fund. Because, priorities.

⚠ Trigger Warning: Our main discussion segment in this episode covers the horrendous allegations against Neil Gaiman, including sensitive topics related to abuse. Please listen with care.

Segments include:
🚿 Shower Thoughts – Would you live in a Lego corpse house?
🎩 TikTok Conspiracy Corner – The real reason Dina lost TikTok forever!
🔥 Hollywood Drama – Blake Lively, Justin Baldoni, and Ryan Reynolds' alleged sabotage
📚 Accountabili-buddies! – Dina is thriving, Daniel is writing, and Sean... opened Adobe Premiere
💻 Dina Learns the Internet – We show Dina the classic animated short Charlie the Unicorn Goes to Candy Mountain
🛑 Main Discussion – Separating the Artist from the Art: Breaking down the Neil Gaiman allegations (TW: abuse discussions)
🦋 Storytime with Dinasaurus – That time moths (moss?!) almost killed Dina’s mom
🎷 Cringey Copulation – Dina reads a spicy exerpt from CONNECT by Julian Gough
