Show notes

Yes, and, Junie?

One week into their new partnership, the scammy scheme team of Watts and Junie are still working out kinks and discovering new quirks. With DAHL-related danger looming large on the horizon, the proactive pair is busily serving up justice, pocketing duckets, and figuring out the rhythms of their swindles.

So let Dead ECHOs regale you with air ducts, code names, pumps, dumps, dummies, fantasy cruises, counterfeit firearms, AND other shellfish as the confounding Postmaster makes his debut and the dexterous art of improv shames us all.

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 through undeliverable ECHO Logs, and selling the secrets inside to the highest bidder. When Junie, a curious stranger with big ideas and a secretive past, 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 lead by power hungry rogue executive, Vivian Proctor.
