Before the ground shifts, before the water turns black, before a settlement falls into silence, he is there.

In this first episode of Beyond the Ruins: Encounters with the Unknown, Rowan Blackwood tries to unravel the unsettling legend of the Pale Watcher, a figure who appears in the final days before catastrophe.

With firsthand accounts and unexplained patterns, this episode explores the possibility that some horrors don’t hunt, they observe.

The Wasteland Broadcasting Network kicks off the very first episode of Wasteland Survivor’s Hotline with a special guest: Jace Holloway, invited to lend his unique perspective on the questions plaguing survivors across the wasteland.

Together, he and our narrator tackle burning questions about drinking glowing liquids, projecting fake wasteland bravado, eating mysterious “food,” encountering suspicious winks, and dealing with the surprisingly common problem of becoming a raider leader by accident.

In this broadcast from the Wasteland Broadcasting Network, our narrator breaks down the myths, misunderstandings, and magnificently avoidable mistakes that helped shape the wasteland as we know it. From the “usefulness” of fire to humanity’s long, proud history of doing the wrong thing at the wrong time, this episode sets the tone for a series dedicated to calling out the nonsense that got us here and the nonsense that keeps us here.

The eclipse is unhinged, the stars are bickering, and Vega Nightshade is here to explain why every zodiac sign is one bad decision away from disaster.

From cosmic mood swings to explosive mishaps, this week’s broadcast charts the chaos unfolding across the wasteland sky.

Before the sky turned red, Jace Holloway wanted to be a writer. Now he’s a survivor with a pen, a microphone, and a lifetime of material he never asked for.

Each episode, Jace recounts the strange, dangerous, and painfully stupid moments that define life in the Great Aftermath, from cult mishaps to mutant wildlife to the eternal curse of HOA committees that somehow survived the end of the world.

Welcome to the wasteland. Try not to die. And if you do happen to die, try not to die stupid.

After fifteen years of dead air, the Wasteland Broadcasting Network finally breaks through the static of the post-apocalyptic wasteland to bring news, entertainment, and more!

Join our beleaguered host as they attempt to introduce the network, only to face interruptions by her fellow survivors and an odd unauthorized commercial break.

WBN is here, and we’ll keep broadcasting until there’s no one left to listen.
