Send us Fan MailThis episode was supposed to be a quick promo.You know… remind you about the live show, keep it tight, move on.Yeah—no. That’s not what happened.This episode of Touch of the Tism is part promo, part group therapy, and fully unfiltered. We’re gearing up for our first live show on April 4—bands, tastings, a fundraiser for Meals on Wheels—and we’re equal parts excited and slightly spiraling.Between joking about turning 26 (again), bad ankles, and how sleeping wrong in your 30s can ruin your life… we get into the real stuff.Holly opens up about losing her friend Nick and the kind of grief that doesn’t move in a straight line—the late-night thoughts, the guilt, the “what could I have done differently” spiral. Danielle talks about anxiety, doomscrolling, and how writing things out (even the stuff you never send) can pull you back from the edge. Siobhan brings it home with real talk on depression, safe spaces, and why “it’s okay to not be okay” actually matters.We also talk about what years behind the bar teach you—how to read people, how to show up for strangers, and how much emotional labor goes into just… being human.It’s chaotic, hilarious, tender, and deeply real.And honestly? This is exactly why we’re doing this live.🦆 Ducking Realitea Presents: Touch of the Tism — LIVE 📍 Fireside Lounge, Alameda 🗓 April 4 🎙 Live show at 7 PM • 🎶 Music at 9 PM With Siobhan, Holly & Danielle, plus tastings from New Alchemy Distilling, Schilling Cider, and The Chaga Co—and a special appearance by 1ZKing.Real conversations.
