Pickleball and Roadkill: Goth Talk with April Childers

This week, Been Trying to Meet You goes straight to the heart of Strawberry Plains, Tennessee, with artist April Childers. We dive into deep topics like roadkill art, haunted houses, and the definitive ranking of horror movies—because why not? Sure, it sounds like we’re auditioning to replace a true crime podcast, but we promise there’s more here than goth vibes (though we’re not mad about it). Oh, and we’re totally sponsored by pickleball. (JK, we’ve never even played—unlike certain other podcasts that claim to be relatable but are probably too busy being sponsored by overpriced mattresses or meal kits.) This episode is packed with laughs, weirdly specific tangents, and the kind of energy that only small-town Tennessee and a podcast with no rules can deliver. Tune in, because Spotify isn’t gonna give us a multimillion-dollar deal for this, but you will have fun. #BeenTryingToMeetYou, #AprilChilders, #GothTalk, #RoadkillArt, #HauntedHouses, #HorrorMovies, #PickleballNotReally, #TennesseeVibes, #PodcastComedy, #BTtMY
