Salari returns, and we have even more silly monsters to show you!

Thanks for your patience with this one, I ended up running into some issues with the audio that required me to go through and meticulously re-sync everything.

August 04, 2024 Talking with Salari
CW: While it's generally pretty light, this episode breaches topics like suicide, depression, and the loss of a family member. These discussions happen between the 35 and 48 minute mark, so feel free to skip that section if you need to.

In a rare change of pace, me and Salari got lost on some tangents and accidentally recorded a bonus episode! I hope you enjoy it! The full episode featuring Salari will be up on August 7, and we will have yet another new episode on August 28!

May 26, 2024 Episode 12: Discordant Floater, Nando the Magnificent, Wigmaker | feat. Tucker Wooley
Note: This episode is being released a little earlier than I was originally planning as a 'thank you' to the folks who donated to the fund to help pay for my fiancée's dental surgery. She had to have six teeth removed, and American dental costs are absolutely wild, but you all came through for us with flying colors and helped ensure that we could pay over half of the costs upfront.
Thank you!
If you'd like to help us pay for the other 42% of our bill, please consider checking out the Ko-Fi page I've set up! Thank you again, and I hope you enjoy the episode! https://ko-fi.com/rswarthout

DescriptionWe got floaters, polyculas, and wigmakers on this month's episode featuring artist and illustrator, Tucker Wooley! Be sure to check out all his work at the links below!
