// TV: Watch our concert film, Mortified Nation, and our 6-part mini series, The Mortified Guide, now on Tubi and other platforms.
// BOOKS: We've also got a guided journal, My Mortified Life, that prompts you to compare your life to your childhood self. We've also got 2 Mortified anthologies.
// GAME: Check out our confessional card game, I Can't Believe I Did That.
// KIDS SHOWS: We also made an awesome podcast for kids 9-13 called Ooh You're in Trouble. It's kind of like we made Mortified Jr. Each episode features a true story about a moment when someone broke a rule growing up, and what happened when they did. It's an educational and comedic series that delivers exciting stories while helping kid's define their sense of ethics.
