Not only is it Jeff's birthday in this episode, we're celebrating by inviting one of our favorite previous guests back! We have a true powerhouse of creativity and talent joining us - none other than Shane Salk, the brilliant mind behind the captivating world of Carcerem and a voice actor featured in the highly anticipated video game, Starfield! 🌌🚀
