Rerun: Doctor Apocalypso Has a Beef

January 15, 2023

Hey there, rockers, it's Doctor Apocalypso! 

Strap on your skull boots and crank up the volume 'cause today, we're going to re-listen to part one of a story that's really important to me. Maybe you remember when a new restaurant called Big Bot Burgers opened up in the Wasteland, and how they wouldn't let any Wastelanders eat there! Other people could order all the tasty burgers they wanted, but when Wasties like me came in, the restaurant called us terrible names and kicked us out. 

So we held a peaceful protest to let everyone know about the discrimination going on at the restaurant, and you know what? Our protest worked! Big Bot was forced to leave the Wasteland! 

Well, it sort of worked. 

It turned out that Big Bot just moved to other locations. And the thing about injustice is, you can't only care about it when it affects your own Neighborhood. You have to fight discrimination wherever it's happening. So Scotty and I called all our friends and we . . . oops! Oh man, I’m sorry! I'm getting way ahead of myself. We'll tell you that part of the story next week!

For now, it's time to rock and resist. Ready? 

WE WANT JUSTICE! WE WANT RESPECT! BIG BOT BURGERS, GET CORRECT!

See you at the protest!
