  • Sunday Scary Rewind: Rats Galore, Loose Skin, and Choking on a Nut

    Send us Fan Mail

    Happy Sunday! Do you need a break or a good laugh today? Listen to this re-release to brighten your day!

    Kim and Jen discuss why you should check the school for opening before there is a rat infestation. They discuss team dynamics and how to deal with uncomfortable meeting situations. In Twisted Lit, Kim discusses why pinning back loose skin isn't the best option to recapture your youth, especially when the king throws you out of the window and your skin gets caught in the branches of a tree. Jen tells us how the Velveteen Rabbit changed her life, and how she wishes that her teenage son would carry his stuffed dog with him as he did when he was four. They discuss why elves should never be left alone with wine and the keys to the mini-van.

  • Twisted Book Chat-The Writing Retreat by Julia Bartz

    Send us Fan Mail

    Jen and Kim give an honest review of The Writing Retreat.

    Alex has all but given up on her dreams of becoming a published author when she receives a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: attend an exclusive, month-long writing retreat at the estate of feminist horror writer Roza Vallo. Even the knowledge that Wren, her former best friend, and current rival, is attending doesn’t dampen her excitement.

    But when the attendees arrive, Roza drops a bombshell—they must all complete an entire novel from scratch during the next month, and the author of the best one will receive a life-changing seven-figure publishing deal. Determined to win this seemingly impossible contest, Alex buckles down and tries to ignore the strange happenings at the estate, including Roza’s erratic behavior, Wren’s cruel mind games, and the alleged haunting of the mansion itself. But when one of the writers vanishes during a snowstorm, Alex realizes that something very sinister is afoot. With the clock running out, she must discover the truth—or suffer the same fate.

  • Sunday Scary Rewind: Living your Most Mediocre Life

    Send us Fan Mail

    Happy Sunday and Almost May Day! We have enough on our plates, so trying to live your best life every day is very unrealistic. Some days are just status quo, and that is OK!
    Stay Twisted and take care of yourselves!

    Jen talks about her lost luggage, and Kim explains why things are mediocre-and that's okay. Jeans Pass fury is all over Tik Tok, and Kim is co-parenting with Crumbles Cookies. They talk about if a teacher should cut a dangling robot from a student's hair, and how the hell did floor sealant make its way into milk containers at a summer camp in Alaska.

  • Gnomerific...when you Give a Gnome a Blog...

    Send us Fan Mail

    If you have ever wondered what goes on inside a gnome's mind, listen to this episode. Jen used to blog from the point of view of a gnome. She delves into the inner workings of the gnome mind and shares a perspective you probably haven't thought of. 
    Kim and Jen also ask Chat GPT to create a similar blog, and the result is both amazing and disconcerting.  They also discuss if dogs have elbows or knees, and what a Ron Desantis gnome would do. (Don't say leprechaun).

  • Literacy Issues, a Twenty Pound Rodent, and JLO Drama

    Send us Fan Mail

    Jen and Kim chat about it all. Apparently, JLO is sponsoring a new alcoholic drink. The weird thing is she doesn't drink and Ben is in recovery....so....huh? Then she hasn't apologized to Jane Fonda for slapping her back in 2005. Jane Fonda's character wore white to her son's wedding, and a slapping fight ensued. This completely makes sense.
    Hear it here first, there are 20-pound rodents wreaking havoc on the world. 
    They discuss the issue of low reading levels, scripted curriculum, and the general demise of literacy in the United States.

  • Sunday Scary Rewind: Gnome Porn

    Send us Fan Mail

    Did you know that Jen used to get paid to write blogs and Tweets from the perspective of a garden Gnome? We will release that episode soon, but we thought that this was the perfect time to re-release one of our favorite  snippets: GNOME PORN.  You probably never thought about Gnomes in this way...
    Have a great day and stay TWISTED!

  • Interview with Jake Keiser-Author of Daffodil Hill

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Jake Keiser, the author of Daffodil Hill.

    Jake's story takes us on a journey from the glitz and glamour of Tampa, Florida, to the peaceful countryside of Mississippi, where she buys a farm on a whim after struggling with anxiety, failed relationships, and a desire for inner peace.

    As she navigates the challenges of farm life, from caring for animals to fixing wells, Jake learns that the key to her happiness isn't found in external circumstances but within herself.

    Her candid conversation with us about her journey is both poignant and hilarious, and her book, Daffodil Hill, is a must-read for anyone who's ever felt stuck in life and longed for something more.

    So sit back, relax, and join us as we dive into Jake's story and discover the importance of writing our own love story with ourselves.

  • Carl Tanzler's Corpse Bride and the D.B. Cooper Hijacking

    Send us Fan Mail

    Here is a true crime snippet to make you realize that things could be worse. Carl Tanzler loved his patient so much that he kept her corpse for years. He talked to it, danced with it, and slept with it in his bed. He did get caught and had to part with his dead lover.
    Have you ever wanted to run away?  D.B. Cooper came up with a master plan to hijack a plane and ask for  $200,000 in twenty-dollar bills, and four parachutes. He jumped and hasn't been seen since.

  • Sunday Scary Rewind: Snow White, Social Media, and Creepy Princes

    Send us Fan Mail

    This is one of our older episodes. We enjoyed tearing apart Snow White and the Prince. Enjoy!

    Jen and Kim delve into teacher life on social media. They give good advice, such as turning your spirit wear inside out to get drinks after school. In Twisted Lit, they talk about the grimmer version of Snow White and ask the questions, "Why was Snow White so Stupid?", "Would the Stepmother have been nicer with a little Botox?", and "Why did the Prince like Dead Girls?".
