For this episode, I have one of my good friends Rob (ElMexNico) joining as a guest. He created the Birb's Nest name, so it's only right for him to be on this podcast. Anyways, we talk about DND, games, and our opinions on Love Live and its future.Thanks to Denis Pavlov for the background music! All music credits go to him.Birb's Nest page: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/birbs-nestNoah/Fallen:Twitter: https://twitter.com/hexagoncubeArchive Of Our Own: https://archiveofourown.org/users/hexagoncubeYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@hexagoncubeMedium: https://hexagoncube.medium.com/DarthA:Twitter: https://twitter.com/ElMexNicoTimestamps:coming soon when I update it#birbsnest #podcast
