What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I’ve been a Fallout fan for as long as I can remember—it’s honestly the game that made me fall in love with gaming in the first place. Funny enough though, I originally found Dave (R0b0ts) through the Starfield Lorecast. I genuinely miss having him host that show, and it actually inspired me to jump back into Starfield recently. That said, the Fallout Lorecast has become one of my favorite podcasts to listen to every day. Dave has one of the most calming voices I’ve ever heard in a podcast. I work long hours, and I can listen to episode after episode without ever feeling bored, annoyed, or wanting to switch to something else. He has a way of keeping you completely at ease while pulling you deeper into the Fallout universe. His knowledge of Fallout lore is incredible, and he explains everything in a way that’s easy to follow while still being incredibly detailed. Whether you’re brand new to the series or you’ve been wandering the Wasteland for years, there’s always something new to learn. If you’re even remotely interested in Fallout, do yourself a favor and give this podcast a listen. Dave has built something special here, and it deserves every bit of the five stars.

Been a fallout fan forever and found this podcast I even joined the Patreon and forgot to leave a review. This podcast is great for long time fans of the series and brand new ones. My girlfriend had zero experience with fallout before me and started the show with me. She dived into this podcast and has had a blast with it too.

The vegan dude · Jul 2026

As a long time fallout fan and was overjoyed to find that someone makes a forecast for it! R0b0ts does an amazing job of keeping the lore interesting and fun. I find myself agreeing and debating things while I listen at work. I found the podcast about 2 weeks ago and have listened up to episode 223 so far and plan to get through the rest. Keep fighting the good fight!

Thellbind · Mar 2026

R0B0TS with zeroes is living my dream of talking about Fallout and the fantastic lore surrounding that fascinating franchise, and doing a better job of it than anyone else I’ve ever heard. I’m still working my way through the episodes but I can vouch for the first 250 and they are excellent; well worth a listen if you’re into the games or even just curious about the series after watching the show. I’ve been a certified Fallout nerd since the second game and this is the first podcast I’ve found in the decades since that scratches that itch.
