Welcome to the Fallout lorecast, the podcast that explores the boundaries of our knowledge about the world of Fallout.

So this probably isn't your first of the pre-war business episodes that I've done, and if it is, welcome. I'm glad to have you, but you've probably seen a trend with these episodes.

Well, first of all, I'm going through them alphabetically.

So I'm not exploring a map.

I'm just going through every one of them starting with A and we're now in the Fs.

But what that means is that I'm often surprised when doing research for these episodes about what we're going to get.

Sometimes we get one of these businesses that is super important, it has tons of lore,

and it's this meaty find, and it takes up a majority of one of these episodes.

But other times, we get lots of little mentions, little tiny bits of information

with like a logo here or just one sample of their product in one place somewhere or a sign on

a building with very little of anything else. And those are interesting too, but in their own ways.

And in this episode, we have a number of these,

well, lesser known businesses. Let's call them that. They may have been substantial companies

if we get more information about them in the future. But for right now, we only have some minor

references. And so I'm going to dig into these as best I can. And most of these you probably will not have paid much attention to at all while playing the games.

So if you do recognize some of these, and some of them are more recognizable than others, but if there are, if you recognize all of these, then you have absolutely paid a lot of attention to every little thing that you find in the games so far.

So congratulations to you.

But here, let's fill up our glasses and cheers to Fall Mouth Watt. to every little thing that you find in the games so far. So congratulations to you.

But here, let's fill up our glasses and cheers to Falmouth Winery to get us started.

You gaze upon one of America's greatest vines, preserved through the miracles of science.

You know how when you start a job, there are the things you expect to do in that job, and then there are other things that you end up doing more than you expected? Well, reading words, obviously, is

something I have to do as a podcaster, but I don't think I realized how often I have to read
