Vault Broadcast is back with another incredible guest — Austin “Nort” Norton: author, podcaster, GM, and creative mind behind the Fallout TTRPG podcast Grim Encounters.

We dive into Nort’s journey from YouTube horror to post-apocalyptic storytelling, how he built a Fallout campaign in the ruins of Chicago, and why giving players narrative freedom is both beautiful and challenging.

From vehicle chases to heavy themes like slavery, Nort handles it all with care, humor, and a deep love of the Fallout universe.

We talk about:

• The power of session zero and collaborative boundaries
• Why found family stories hit different in the Wasteland
• The evolving culture of TTRPGs and community-led safety

This one’s honest, nerdy, and deeply thoughtful — a must-listen for any GM, writer, or Wasteland wanderer.
