10.They said to "sign up."
That, "you won't regret it" and that they "won't put anybody on the list. You have to do it yourself."
I said, "That seems like a pretty poor way to publicize."
They replied, "We're for the People Man!" and hung up.

8. If you ask me, this whole podcast and essay thing is just a strange way to psychoanalize their life. It would be a lot easier if they just went to counseling.

7. They've given me strict instructions to post the sign-up link to all their social media accounts. They say it will help. I asked, "WHO will it help?" And they only sighed.

6. Meanwhile, they're somewhere-keeping the location secret, even from me, their loyal and beleaguered publicist-penning missives called Totally Funked: Stories from the Bleeding Edge of Life and recording podcasts that they're calling Raw and Real.

4. I tried to put Jessica and Matt in touch with the closest U.S. consulate so they can replace their incinerated passports but they just told me, "Later, Jan, later." And when I said, "Later, like, when?" they told me they'd wait until after the 2020 elections are over.

3.Everyone escaped with only minor burns but they still can't find the drummer after they watched him run, by the light of the exploding bus, into the jungle yelling revolutionary slogans and wearing nothing but a red beret.

2. The last I heard, they were still stranded in South America. Apparently, the lead singer and bassist got toasted on brazil nut liquor and decided to light the stage pyrotechnics stored in the back of the bus on fire while the group was traveling between gigs.

Thread! 1. This is Jan, Matt and Jessica's publicist. @powers_squared
I've been warning them for some time that their extended tour with AngrySquirrelz was only going to end in tears, cost them fans, assuming they have any, and end up with a raging empanada habit.
