New Weird Kids Episodes Coming May 5th!
Written by Dekan Wheeler on April 16, 2026
Welcome Back to Weirdsville!
Ashley Johnson and Taliesin Jaffe are taking you back to Hollyweird! New episodes of Weird Kids are coming exclusively to Beacon.tv on Tuesday, May 5th.
In this new batch of episodes, we’re bringing brand new topics, fresh new set updates, and even some new guests (some expected, some not, and some that are well… puppet-shaped). Plus, there will be plenty of new corners of Weirdsville to explore, from wacky new characters, quirky new places, and a growing mystery surrounding Weirdsville’s favorite musician Dave Heatwave.
It’s the same lovable weirdos and orange couch; just some added nostalgic chaos!
THE WEIRDEST ZINE YOU’VE EVER SEEN
Just can’t wait for the 5th? Get your very own Weird Kids Zine to help pass the time!
From word searches and short-stories, to comics and cut-outs, The Complete and Official Guide to Being Weird is our gift to you. Make sure to take a close and conspiratorial look at everything, as we might have some hidden spoilers for our upcoming episodes…
WEIRD FACT: If you don’t know what a “zine” is, these self-published pamphlets shorten the word “magaZINE” and harken back to the early days of queer, punk, feminist, and sci-fi/fantasy communities as a way to stay connected before the internet.
Print as many Weird Kids Zines as you want for you and your found family of other Weird Kids.
Where to Watch & Listen
These 24 new episodes of Weird Kids will only be available through Beacon.tv!

To all the misfits, outcasts, and weirdos out there, thanks for coming along on this weird ride with us and we can’t wait to continue celebrating all things unconventional, nostalgic, and wonderfully weird.
