DIY or DIE - Cemetery Confessions

On this episode we are diving deep into DIY in 2026! We'll be sharing expert tips on jewelry making and sewing, we'll explore what role DIY has in the era of fast fashion, and we pontificate on the use of religious imagery in goth culture. Beyond that, we talk at length about the goth scene in Florida and Chicago, and get a master class in how to start your own goth shop. Finally, review the recently released directors cut of Gypsy 83.
