Negative Thots

By: Radio 22
  • Summary

  • A silly podcast about women and their silly brains. Respectfully dedicating ‘that time of the month’ to men (for once).

    *Consider this a broad Trigger Warning*

    *Each week our thotful hosts Carley Eiden and Samara Suomi talk ‘mental illness shop’ with women (identifying and otherwise) of all backgrounds. Once a month we open the space for men’s mental health talk in our justifiably titled ‘That time of the Month’ segment. Negative Thots intent as a podcast is to encourage people to open up about their day-to-day life living with mental illness. With that openness comes

    a likelihood of somewhat difficult-to-digest discussions. Our goal is to create a safer, lighter, and sillier space to have conversations we don't normally have with our peers.

    With the topic in general comes heavy material. There will be deep discussions, jokes, stories, and theories that may be a little ~triggering~ to others. Some topics

    of discussion can be hard to hear, but we believe it's important to listen to the messages each guest brings with them. Listen with an open mind and heart as we explore the range of thots inside us all.

  • Taylor Dugger & Nina Davis: "Find community... and journal about it!"
    Oct 16 2024

    We're baaack! And it's 'That Time of the Month' (sorry were a little late).

    We are back in the Media22 studio! We brought Taylor Dugger and the occasional ho-host of Negative Thots, Nina Davis, all the way from Colorado. It's Negative Thots first threeway (interview)!


    Taylor Dugger is a comedian and producer of Bad Comedy; he is also a veteran who has been diagnosed with PTSD and chronic Depression.

    Nina Davis is a comedian and producer of Manitou Comedy & Festival; she's had many other titles along the way from death doula to cheese monger. She is on the ASD spectrum, and has spoken to NT before about her outdated ODD diagnosis and PDA, (again not the holding hands or kissing in public kind).


    They're back in WI traveling with our host Samara Suomi doing shows all over the midwest, to test our host's new hip. As well as to come into the old studio stomping grounds to revamp and resurrect Negative Thots! Let's get these thots back in your head!


    This week's revival episode revives old thots and new alike. We all sit down and talk what it's like leaving the military with a fun new brain chemistry, the search for community through comedy, how to change places that don't want to change, the sacrifices of sanity it takes to stay where you feel unwelcomed, the Colorado and Wisconsin pipeline, periods and so much more on this renewed episode of Negative Thots!


    Huge thanks to Corey Whitmore of Media22 and Radio22 studios for letting us in again while we were in town. The timing was perfect (I mean it is 'That Time of the Month'), and the studio looks amazing. Madison is blessed to have you.

  • Negative Thots Update!
    Feb 3 2024

    Did your head feel empty without your weekly Negative Thots?? We know our host Samara's head has been alternating between empty and full this whole time away! 

    She's never stopped thinking of you, but she was busy moving across the country. But she and your favorite thots are back! And a little different! 


    Samara is here to update you on the status of Negative Thots; the status is, they're still around! Operations have changed and Samara discusses the difficulties of navigating technology, leaving a professional studio for a corner bedroom desk, what's in store for the future thots, where in the world our co-host is, and many other side tangents in this quick but thotful update on everything Negative Thots!

  • Recurring Thots Pt. 1: Kessa Albright!
    Sep 1 2023

    We are back (even though we never really leave) to fill your heads with our Negative Thots! 

    This time, we introduce a new segment with a familiar face; Recurring Thots! 

    Where we re-interview a former guest to catch up with how their thots have been. 

    Our first Recurring Thot is Kessa Albright!

    This time around, Kessa and our host settle in with familiar conversations about (once new) jobs in the service industry, working with your anxiety, depression, and every other thot in your head, finding good environments for your growth, community, and how to care for it, putting the self in care mode, and many more life updates from your favorite person(s) around town(s), right here on Negative Thots! 

    Big thanks to Kessa for coming back and sharing more of their infinite wisdom. To become part of their community, follow them on Instagram @molotovcraftcocktail
