BORDERLANDS DeadECHOs Episode 1
7/20/202640 min
Don’t try to be funny, Watts.
In the crazy, cruel badlands of Pandora, two loners will forge a connection based on easy money, tenuous trust, and a love for sticking it to assholes. But what happens when their silly scams start to uncover a full-tilt corporate coup involving cyborg assassins? Dead ECHOs dives headlong into the lethal lunacy of the Borderlands!
Borderlands: Dead ECHOs is Gearbox’s first scripted narrative podcast — a darkly comedic drama set in the chaotic Borderlands universe.

Borderlands Dead Echoes Episode 1 Greetings, illustrious listeners.
Sir Hammerlock0:30
I am Sir Hammerlock. You may have heard of me, though you may not have, which is perfectly reasonable. Yes, well, would you like to hear a story? Where have I got a cracking tale to tell? It starts out on Pandora, an infamous planet full of larger-than-life monsters, legendary lutes, and, of course, vault hunters. But not everyone in the Borderlands is destined for glorious heroics. Alas, most of us must simply do our best with what we've been given, righting the smaller wrongs that slip through the cracks. And if we're lucky, we might make a friend or two along the way.
Speaker 41:09
Alistair, do you even have your waistcoat on? We have tickets to the opera.
Sir Hammerlock1:15
Coming, Winnie. As I was saying, we may not all be glorious, but if we look out for each other, we can still be heroes.
Speaker 41:25
Alistair!

I am coming!
