Join us for a very special episode as Austin and Phil sit down for a conversation with "hobby magpie" Amy Frost (aka  @Daniora ).  Amy tells the guys of her theatrical roots and how that has led her to where she is now as an artist, painter, podcaster, and voice actor.  Mostly, they talk about her work as a performer and producer on the audio drama podcast Achewillow and how her love of games plays into her creative life.  

It's a really fun conversation and we can't thank Amy enough for sharing her time and talents with us.
