V (she/her) is a sociologist who studies The Torment Nexus - basically, factors that lead to conflict online and offline. There’s not really a word for the general field she’s in yet, but it spans a lot of different subjects such as: epistemology, eschatology, technology, conflict/war/terror studies, religious studies, privacy/cybersecurity and internet studies.

Damian (he/him) has roots in activism and organizing in California and at his workplace. For work he has been everything from a lab monkey to a professional hiker to a local journalist.

If his voice is familiar congrats on being part of either a niche RP podcast fandom or a lefty furry political podcast fandom.
