Who am I?
I am passionate about being a father, podcasting, video games, and reading. I have been playing TTRPGS for 15 years and creating content for 7 years. I am Bi, married, and a father of two. I wouldn’t say I am expert I just love TTRPGs and have listened to actual plays for 14 years. I am on a couple actual play shows myself.
