What happens when two people who grew up in a very strange corner of Los Angeles look back and realize just how bizarre their upbringings really were?

They start a podcast, of course.

I'm Ashley Johnson.

And I'm Talas and Jaffe.

Before we became the internet people we are today, we spent our childhoods as working actors, appearing in shows like growing pains and films like Mr. Mom.

In our podcast, Weird Kids, we're diving deep into our unique upbringings, our friendship

with each other, and all the delightfully odd interests we still carry with us today.

In each episode, we get to share stories of our youth, the things that bring us joy, the

problems that we face,

and occasionally the friends we've collected along the way.

If you're a misfit, an outcast, or just a weirdo who loves all things nostalgic and

unconventional, come take a seat at our table.

Each week, we'll be releasing previously members-only episodes on YouTube and all major podcast

platforms, with new episodes dropping exclusively and ad-free on beacon.

Hello, halflings.

We're back for another exciting episode of City of Black Rose.

This is part two of episode three.

It's me, Jeremy.

Hello, pronouncing him. Hi, I'm Jess William Cartwright, pronouncing him, and I'm very, very excited. See the Black Rose? Easily, one of the best worlds you've ever created, Jeremy, and I don't mind saying that. I'm just saying it right now. Thank you. Thank you very much. We're basically nearly done filming season two and it slaps. So good. Yeah. So, so good. It's, yeah. I've sent it to people. I've sent, I've sent clips of it to people and consistently people are like, wow, wow. Dang. Yeah. This is sick. Yeah, I don't think people are ready. I really don't think people are ready for what we have in store. I think people are genuinely not. We just recorded a bit which shook me to my call. Yeah. Me, the player, I was pretty shook up by this, let alone my character. Yeah. So yeah. I have after the... I don't know if you were there for the talkback for this when we recorded this, Jasper,

but the rest of the cast, actually, after recording that, has now, it's now looking like I will have to be, I will be forced to drop the neighborhood. We're dropping neighborhood. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. We're dropping neighborhood. It's exclusively the now.

The and GM.
