CHAD: A Fallout 76 Story

Introduction:

I’m Kenneth Vigue, creator, writer and showrunner of CHAD: A Fallout 76 Story, an original storytelling podcast set in the world of Fallout 76 currently at 1 MILLION+ listens! I also am founder and organizer for the Fallout For Hope charity initiative and sometimes do Fallout community stuff unofficially and sometimes officially with Bethesda games.

I do stream, but infrequently and mostly only for charity a few times a year. We do have a Discord and Patreon to support the costs of producing shows and podcasts (from artwork to music), so support is appreciated:  https://www.patreon.com/fallout76chadpodcast
