Pops and Clicks at Random Moments

Hello! I've been having a consistent issue that occurs ONLY when I'm streaming. Unfortunately my mic audio pops and stutters randomly throughout my stream. I thought it would happen when I was opening and closing new windows or doing assorted PC tasks, however it occurs at very random times and I cannot replicate it.

Here is a recent clip from my stream that highlights the issue: https://www.twitch.tv/pterafier/clip/CalmTalentedCrocodileBudBlast

You can also find these pops and stutters throughout my most recent VOD: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/675113487
The VOD truly shows how random the pops and stutters are.

I've done a VAST array of things in an attempt to fix the problem. Firstly, I switched my audio interface FROM the GoXLR TO the Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 which unfortunately presented more issues than solutions. Upon returning to the GoXLR I've found that my mic sounds excellent while I'm recording and throughout the duration of the recording, however the stutters occur, again, once I start streaming.

I can't think of anything else to do. I've adjusted all the settings I can think of adjusting, I've tried different audio bitrates, lowering stream quality, lowering stream bitrate, adjust sample rate, and so on...

Here are 2 log files that may show where the issue occurred: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Va-iZeQEoDe4NiipCnujkJgOQRDr2w6NF2Cb_dKq5NE/edit?usp=sharing

And the 2nd: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jRnQuTgOitwtZauxBKgHYD-Dn_3ZMCAQLjJV9gUdw5Q/edit?usp=sharing

To you wizards out there, if you can fix this you can save my career. I do this full time and cannot figure out how to fix it...Viewers leave left and right and I haven't been able to have a problem-free stream in a week or more.

Thank you to anyone that is still active here and willing to help!
