He said, it's not anything scary. It's just that they're here.

Sounds like a pain in the ass. It sounds like a lot.

I know, like a nuisance.

Hello, welcome to guides the unknown. I'm Kristen.

And I'm her little brother William.

And we have a different kind of episode this week.

So 10 years ago today, as this episode comes out, we realized looking at the calendar,

was the day that our sister Karen died.

And so we wanted to do an episode kind of Karen themed, sort of like celebrating things that she liked.

And a lot of them can have like a guide to the unknowny sort of bent to them.

Oh, yeah.

So we thought it would be like a fun way to acknowledge and celebrate our sister.

Yes, yes.

And closer to like a celebration of life kind of vibe, I think.

Yeah.

Because obviously, this is a heavy time, a heavy day. Our sister, for context, was killed by a drunk driver 10 years ago.

And so we'd been talking about doing something to do an episode, uh, focused on,

uh, the day or on Karen. And she really loved like our dad did, loved like murder mysteries and

everything. But then you had, frankly, I think the perfect idea. And I don't think you even realized how perfect it was. Because I had been, you were soaking up the praise already. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, good for you. Oh, good for you. Fantastic. All right, I got to stop praising you. This isn't about you. It's what Karen would have wanted. For me to praise you? Yes. Okay. So I knew that Karen loved this book series. I can't remember the author right now. Sue Grafton. Sue Grafton, who did that full alphabet. Yeah. Murder mystery series. Like A is for. Alibi. Adjada. A is for Adjada.

Better title.

Definitely.

B is for a bouncy ball. I don't know. But they all had something to do with detectives and murder mysteries. And I was like, we'll do that. And then you knew more about it than me. You're like, I don't think that's going to fit. So you sent me an email. I'm telling this like you don't remember this.
