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...

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!

Thank you for your patience on this one! It was a lot of fun talking to Phil, and creating monsters that will eat your bones, make your spine tingle, and give you insight into the future you never knew you needed. Also, one of them is incredibly gross.
