Hey,

Hey everybody, it's your radioactive wizard, Holda McNeely.

Wait, did I say that last time? Who gives a shit? Jake?

And it is I, your mutated bruiser, Jake Young. This is the first conversation I've had all day.

Wow. I just kind of woke up and went to work and now I'm using my mouth. That's amazing. I've been sitting mostly in silence for the past two days because we got back from a big special event where I screamed talked for pretty much the whole weekend. And now I'm here. And I'm so happy to be here because I've been really looking forward to this episode because this is like the fallout I know. You know what I this is the fallout that that i can't became accustomed

to and even i was super late to the party to be quite honest with you and that's why we have our special

guest marcus parks in the building what's happening buddy hello oh man i'm so excited talking about

fallout bro all i ever want to do is talk about fallout so so the way we're structuring this episode, this is the gush, what we refer to as the gush, by the way. We always talk about it in that sense. Because you always have to spend some time talking about the history, talking about the, give me the facts, give me what happened. But there's also the importance of the gush. And I think we have a lot to gush about here. Jake, what was your personal experience in a broad sense with the Fallout series from Fallout 3 forward? Well, first of all, I'd like, Marcus, you are here, of course, from episode one of Wizard and the Bruiser. And I bet you're feeling a little bit of just seething rage right now because the gush is a way better name for this podcast. Oh my God! We've been asleep at the wheel for like a year and a half already. It sounds weirdly sexual though, so I feel like a wizard in the bruiser. The wizard and the bruiser is also weirdly sex. It's all weirdly. We're weirdly sexual being.

Yeah, you remember the original title that y'all were kicking around,

Mother's Basement?

No, Mommy's Basement.

Mommy's basement.

Then it turns out there's a YouTube channel.

I'm pretty sure I was like, no.

It has to be Mommy's basement or creepy hands uncle.

I don't care one of the other.

So, I mean, the Fallout Universe is just this amazing, almost perfect teen boy franchise.

Because it combines like the fucking devastation of war and fucked up.

You find a fucked up skeleton and then you

look on the desk and there's a note that was like I don't want to be a fucked up skeleton

I hope war don't kill me and then there's all this like fucking pop culture stuff where

there's aliens and ray guns and sci-fi and power armor and all this cool shit so like it can
