The video game Fallout is set in the aftermath of global nuclear annihilation, where a few people struggle to survive in Appalachia. From this virtual wasteland came a stunning real-world creation. Kenneth Vigue thought up a group of characters, found actors to portray them and produced the podcast “Chad: A Fallout 76 Story.” For its hundreds of thousands of listeners, the podcast brings solace and laughter, community, and a call to action on behalf of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

Credits: Hosted and produced by Geoffrey Redick. Edited by Grace Korzekwa Evans. Special thanks to Amanda Hill. Louis Graham is the executive editor of St. Jude Inspire.
