Autumn Leaves and Kooky Things

 Dear Fiends,


Logging in today, I realized that I never posted our Halloween Surprise, the Paul Lynde Halloween Special in two parts. Which is a bummer to me, because while I know that you probably already knew anyway if you're a subscriber, it just means I really fell behind on keeping up with this podcast. But, onward and upward!

This week we get back to covering the original series again. I was surprised at how happy it made me to do so. There are episodes that I wonder if we'll have enough to talk about when it comes to the TV show, but then we end up doing just fine. If this overall project has taught me anything, it's to trust the process and enjoy building skills every step of the way. 

JohnPaul and I have talked about our future plans with what we're going to do with membership tiers to make them worth your while (I haven't forgotten you and am working on things now), as well as some community building things. I am excited to get back to work on these things after a 3 week hiatus due to taking care of personal life things. I have big hopes and even bigger ideas, but I've realized that slow and steady truly does win the race. The things we envision for this channel are coming, but they will happen in a timeline that works for us. I do everything with intentionality, and intentionality takes time. But it's worth it. I hope you think so too and see it in the quality and passion of what we create. 

As always, thanks for sticking with us. JohnPaul and I both love hearing from you, so please don't be shy. Here, email, Bluesky, YT comments, however you want to talk to us, we'll listen. I always say that we'd be doing this regardless if we had listeners, and we would, but knowing people enjoy what we're doing inspires us even more to be at our best and create something that has meaning.

I hope the fall season brings you more peace, more intentionality, and more slowness to your life. There's so much that we aren't seeing and hearing when we go too fast. 

All my love to you, you marvelous fiends. Take care and until next time.

Wake the Dead. In honor of Chris Liu.

 Dear Fiends, This entry isn't for the faint of heart. It's going to be sad, a little bit frightening, and maybe anxiety inducing for some. There is also the content warning of death of a loved one. So please proceed thoughtfully. I am trying to process the heartbreaking news of a friend's passing. I know this is only the beginning of that process. It still feels unreal. I worry about that too. Chris was a friend that I met online, and it just makes it even more complicated in the grief of loss. I don't have the privilege of his physical presence to miss, so the weight of his loss is solely in my heart and mind. He will always exist to me as a spirit that I loved and felt love from. And it got me thinking about how life exists through spirit in the Addams Family. This brought me some brief comfort. Let me explain. In the Addams universe, those we love, never truly leave us. In the kookiest ways, sometimes they end up as a leg sticking out of a shark in the living room, ...

Going Color! 🤯

 Dear Fiends, We're going electric and full color!  Eventually. Here's the deal. JohnPaul and I have been recording with video for awhile to get comfortable on camera, and last week we recorded with the intention to post video for the first time. The session went really well, but unfortunately it may be next week or after until I get a full handle of editing video successfully. I know I could just throw what we have on YouTube and call it a day, but that's not how I work. I care about what I create and want it to be my best try for that time. So I hope you continue to stick around, and be patient until our big reveal in the next couple weeks. The reveal is that we aren't special, LOL, but at least you can see my wild hand gesturing like JohnPaul mentions.  The new podcast episode will still be up late tonight or tomorrow during the day. It took me awhile to figure out that I just wasn't going to be ready with video editing by today. I hope you all have the most gloo...

  Hello my dearest fiends. I wanted to sit by the hearth with you and have a nice heart to heart. (rips out my heart TEMPLE OF DOOM style) Here you go. Now you! I'm kidding! Though I do love some good theatrics. Theatrics is part of why I love the original Addams Family TV series so much. There is so much passion and vibrancy radiating through that family. Whether it's Gomez throwing himself head first (literally with the Zen Yogi) into his interests, or Wednesday punching a misogynist, rotten, little boy, this family follows through with zest on what they love and believe in. And what they love and believe in is something this world needs a lot more of right now.  The Addams family are the best of us. Not because they are kooky, and macabre, that's just a plus! They are the best of us because they meet everyone with an open mind, and heart full of love. They think the things that makes us unique and different are beautiful and a chance to learn from one another. They face ...
