Fallout isn’t just a game — it’s a lifestyle. And this week on Vault Broadcast, we’re joined by the incredible Courier Claire: artist, cosplayer, content creator, and founder of the Great Midwest Commonwealth — a thriving cosplay and LARP group bringing Fallout fans together across the American Midwest.

Claire talks about her 15-year love for Fallout, the thrift-based sustainability of wasteland costuming, how 3D printing is changing access to cosplay, and why Benny from New Vegas holds a special place in her wardrobe (even in 100-degree Orlando heat).

We also dive into the growth of her cosplay troop — from zero to over 100 members in under a year — and her plans to expand into LARP events, in-con booths, and long-term community collaborations. Whether you’re a fellow Vault Dweller, aspiring costumer, or someone who’s ever dreamed of rolling around in the Nevada desert for “real weathering,” this episode is a must-listen.
