Ep. 142 Fallout: Season 1

The Pink Smoke podcast

“War… war never changes…” Attention wastelanders, time to strap on the ol’ power armor and grab a rusty gauss rifle, we’re headed into (and out) of Vault 33 to explore the new streaming TV series based on the massively popular open-world RPG Fallout video game series. Host Christopher Funderburg is joined by fellow fans of the video game series, screenwriter Tom Vaughan and critic Stephanie Crawford, to discuss the 8-episode first season of the new show from executive producer Jonathan Nolan (who also directed a few episodes.) They talk about how to adapt a video game into a different kind of narrative art, how the specificity of the Fallout world translates into a new medium, the rifts within Fallout fandom, the charm of Walton Goggins and the perks of creating a bloody mess.
