Nerd's of the Spruce - Spruce Cast

My Second Interview with Amanda/Pixieflydust And it was extremely motivational for me to get off my ass and start my workouts again, hopfully its the same for you!A couple of months ago Amanda posted links to her GoFundMe Campaign to help raise funds for her skin graph, she revealed her weight loss journey as well as her excess skin, Losing weight is something I definitely Want/Need to do, but having the excess skin left over is definitely something holding me back, but having Amanda talk through it, and discuss how she would rather have this inconvenience than the weight and all of the health issues that comes with the fat is definitely easing my anxiety.Check Out Her InstagramCheck Out Her GoFundMe Check Her Out!

I have my second interview with the Dank Meme King Rae AKA CrownClownCosplay and we discuss the controversy over the Tokyo Comic Con Controversy when the banned Male to Female Crossplay, and so I figured Rae who is a member of the LGBT community, has done Crossplay and Gender Bend cosplays and what his thoughts on this was. It was great talking to my sassy friend again, wish it was longer than half an hour but we'll do something longer on our next episode Check out His Instagram Check Him Out

"Don't Be Ashamed of it, If you're going to do it, than do it! and do it with Pride!"Very wise words from Kikki as we discuss her life as a sex worker, and how it effects her relationships in life and what kind of experiences shes had during her time with Myfreecams and being a camgirl/Amateur Porn Star.Shes a really cool charming Punk rocker and you hear her confidence as she speaks so openly about what she does, I wish to be secured with myself one day as she is, but it was very interesting for me to talk shop with someone apart of the porn industry and to see her experiences through it all, I'm definitely excited to have her on the show again in the future and can't wait to see where she goes from here!Check Out Her Instagram!

Opinionated or Open minded Interhead7 is definitely confident about his words and well spoken.
