Dario plays goldrush/badwater; reveals favorite snack

[ardysqrrl]

This is heavily edited, I tried to leave in everything of dario interest

a lot of people ask him questions over voice which means I'm adding my vague recollections as to what the questions are

I hope you guys don't expect anything revealing it was mostly supersandvich asking if he liked ponies
