Should You Shield Yourself From Fallout?

Or does Amazon Prime's squelchy, sometimes funny dystopia show promise as well as gory deaths?

We are off this week but bring you a recent episode from our Club spinoff podcast Extra Extra Hot Great.

From EEHG 292: Should You Shield Yourself From Fallout?

Even big Walt Goggins fans might not enjoy a series that takes his nose and overuses midcentury needle drops — but most of the panel thinks you should stick with Fallout, the new post-nuclear-bomb dystopia from Prime based on a videogame. It’s different from Silo in good ways, and wit plus world-building plus thoughtful casting goes a long way. Your Ask EHG questions led us to contemplate a live-action Muppet Show, a Sports Night reboot, Warriors gangs, and crossover pairs of TV friends; we named our Not Quite Winners and Losers; and the calendar’s cruelest month saw US cruelly pitting characters named April against each other in a micro-Thunderdome. Radiation poisoning and Garthe Knight…just another day in the vault at Extra Extra Hot Great!
