‘Fallout’ S2, E2 Reactions

Ben and Daniel Chin patrol the Mojave and discuss the literally mind-blowing second episode of the second season of Fallout, &#8220;The Golden Rule.&#8221; After sharing their overall review, they assess each of the episode’s four main settings and story lines, point out the parallels between characters, and wrestle with this season’s accelerated world-building. They also consider whether becoming a ghoul is good, the Golden Rule vs. the Ghoul-den Rule, the likelihood of surviving a nuclear explosion by hiding in a fridge, aliens in Fallout lore, and more.
