So, do you aspirate the /t/? Because no matter how much I try, I can't
pronounce that /t/, I can only get a glottal stop with my tongue going to
where it would if a [t] were there. If I try to pronounce the [t], I end up
with the affricate [t] + voiceless lateral fricative.

Timeout! I just found I pronounce it two different ways! Either with
the glottal stop, or with the /t/ as a flap! How 'bout that! It's like
attle antic, but really fast.
