    Fallout has a lot of scary moments, but there's room for improvement. Our patrons brainstormed scary things that aren't yet in Fallout that would fit perfectly (and scare your vault-suit off!)

  6. 423: Data: Older Games Beat Newer Games - What's going on? Host Crossover Chat Fall 2026

    Episode 423

    Show notes

    Fallout is more popular than ever and it's partly due to a major cultural shift. Valve pc gaming sales show old game beating new games in sales. Old music is more popular with Gen Z and A. Old movies and shows are streamed more than new ones. What is going on and what does that mean for podcasts like this?

    Vault 63 was hinted at with a locked vault door in Fallout 76, until the Skyline Valley update let us inside. And what we discovered reveals a lot about how Vault-Tec and other powerful groups may have operated.

    Future-Tec was behind some of Vault-Tec's most innovative technology, but it rarely gets talked about. We also cover these pre-war businesses: Fabrique Nationale, Freddy Fear's House of Scares, Fresh Soil Restaurant, Freyja's Haus, and Fumigus.

  17. 412: Fallout 3's Cultural References: 1984

    Episode 412

    Show notes

    We're starting a new series, Fallout 3's Cultural References. We're investigating how Fallout references other media (movies, games, books, etc) and if the references we find online are actually in the games.

    This week, 1984. George Orwell's extremely accurate warning about how totalitarian governments abuse and influence their people to maintain control. That sounds very "Fallout" but are the references real?
