This week on Dead ECHOs, it’s time to connect the mother-flippin’ dots. It’s a big excavation, digging deeper into just what the heck’s going on around here, with the DAHL and the Vivian Proctor and the cyborgs and the whatnot. So adorn your favorite conspiracy chapeau, be it made of tin foil or other mind-shielding material and prepare your very own BIG BOARD.
Wait. Is someone at the door?
Borderlands: Dead ECHOs is Gearbox’s first scripted narrative podcast, a darkly comedic drama set in the chaotic Borderlands universe. It follows Watts, a disenchanted DAHL ECHO Operator, who supplements his meager pay by sifting lucrative secrets from undeliverable ECHO logs and selling them to the highest bidder. When Junie, a curious stranger with big ideas, gets him out of a jam, the two strike up an unlikely partnership. As Junie injects a daring Robin Hood twist into Watts’ amateur criminal enterprise, their ECHO-brokering operation draws attention from ruthless mercenaries, violent outlaws, and DAHL’s deadly corporate hit squad led by power-hungry rogue executive, Vivian Proctor.
Listen to Borderlands: Dead ECHOs via YouTube, Spotify, Amazon, Apple, iHeart Radio, and Pandora, with new episodes of this limited series debuting weekly!
As you take photos and drop them in Steam, we’ll round up a few of our favorites for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy the beauty of chaos - er, I mean, Kairos!
