Spoiler factory: "Fallout" - bloody snip-snap in episodes three and four!
by Luca Fontana
The spoiler factory is a lively place: Luca Fontana, Domagoj Belancic and Philipp Rüegg discuss, analyse and dissect the first two episodes of "Fallout", the new hit series on Amazon Prime Video.
The podcast universe is currently experiencing a shake-up in power: the spoiler factory is here, the new Digitec spoilercast. It's for everyone who doesn't just watch or play films, series and games, but lives them. Because here at the Spoiler Factory, we don't just discuss what we've watched and played; we analyse, scrutinise and critically examine the goods produced - including spoilers.
To kick things off, the team will be analysing "Fallout", the adaptation of the highly successful game series from developers Interplay Entertainment and Bethesda. Unbelievable, but true: Luca has never played a single second of it. That's why he brought the two "Fallout" aficionados and game experts Domi and Phil onto the spoiler conveyor belt to take Amazon's new hit series apart.
Because it all takes time, we're only starting with the first two "Fallout" episodes today: "The End" and "The Target". We'll be discussing the next two episodes next Friday. The same game again next week. So that by the end you have thoroughly analysed all eight episodes.
Do you have any suggestions or feedback for the new podcast? Or wishes for which film, series or game we should cover next? Then write it in the comments.

Luca is living proof that our parents lied: There are no square eyes from watching too much TV. Rumour has it that he was already watching "Star Wars" films and reading Marvel comics in his mother's womb. Today, after many years of field research, he knows his way around the Disney universe better than Al Capone in 1930s Chicago. He uses the same password for his 14 streaming subscriptions because otherwise he would forget them. The only people who are allowed to interfere with his "work" are his two cats.
If anyone games more than Phil, it would be Domi. If his dog didn't regularly drag him out into the sunlight, he would have long since collected all the platinum trophies on the Playstation. His heart also burns for another well-known Japanese company, Nintendo. This is proven by the various retro consoles that adorn his office, as well as his encyclopaedic knowledge of all Pokémon - even those that have yet to be invented.
Phil uses the Game Pass so extensively that Microsoft is considering abolishing it. No game is safe from the insatiable gaming aficionado. The fewer pixels a game has, the greater the likelihood that Phil has already played it. In the A Tech Affair-Podcast, Phil sets himself the task of channelling the torrent of talk into meaningful channels every week. A truly epic quest. In doing so, he proves himself to be a master of stylish and elegant transitions.
I'm an outdoorsy guy and enjoy sports that push me to the limit – now that’s what I call comfort zone! But I'm also about curling up in an armchair with books about ugly intrigue and sinister kingkillers. Being an avid cinema-goer, I’ve been known to rave about film scores for hours on end. I’ve always wanted to say: «I am Groot.»
