For the location in Diamond City, see Diamond City Radio (location). |
Diamond City Radio is a radio station sourced at a small studio within Diamond City in the Commonwealth in Fallout 4.
Background[]
At some point after moving to Diamond City, Travis Miles started up his own radio station, naming it "Diamond City Radio," apparently to emulate Three Dog, the host of Galaxy News Radio from the Capital Wasteland who Travis met prior.[1]
Because of Travis' lack of proper employment, his only means of supporting the station's upkeep is through listeners' donations and sponsorships from the various merchants operating in the Diamond City market.
Characteristics[]
The station plays 42 tracks of music including pre-War and post-War tracks, with some of the post-War tracks written and performed by Magnolia from Goodneighbor (they only start to appear on DCR after first visiting the Third Rail).
Diamond City Radio can be picked up on any normal radio and on the player's Pip-Boy anywhere in the Commonwealth. If Far Harbor is installed, it can also be picked up on The Island via activating the Ruined radio tower.
The station includes songs originally heard on Galaxy News Radio in Fallout 3. It is also the first radio station in the Fallout series to play mainstream '50s rockabilly music, not just proto and western rockabilly songs which radio stations in previous games were known for.
In between songs, Travis provides news stories about factions and events in the Commonwealth (e.g. Call to Arms, The Silver Shroud, Taking Independence, Diamond City Blues, etc.). He also does advertisements for the various merchants around Diamond City.
If the side quest Confidence Man is completed, afterward Travis will change his personality, affecting a Transatlantic accent and becoming much more confident during his broadcasts. The quest is started by visiting the Dugout Inn, leaving, then returning and talking to Vadim Bobrov at the bar.
If Travis is killed, he is replaced by Sheng Kawolski as radio host. Kowalski will not share any news stories and will only advertise his own purified water business in-between songs.

News Stories[]
Nervous Travis[]
- "So... there's a bit of, uhh, news. Well, more of a, you know, a rumor really. Someone... I'm not sure who, but I guess... I mean, it probably doesn't matter who... anyway, someone saw, well... I guess they think, uhh, maybe they saw a person in a, uhh... a Vault Suit. I mean, coming out of Vault 111. It's the Vault 111 part that's weird, I guess, right? I mean, it's not like no one's ever seen a Vault Suit before, I just... Well, anyway. You get the idea, I guess. Let's, uhh.. I'll just, uhh, just go back to the music." – Triggered by start of game
- "Hey, uhh, hey everyone. Hi there. Uhh, sorry to... y'know, interrupt, but this is, uhh... well it's kind of important... There's been a, uhh, crash... at the airport... where the, uhh, the Brotherhood had set up. It sounds like, well, uhh... everything kind of... exploded. I don't, uhh... I don't really know any more than that right now, but... if I can find something else out, I'll... well, I'll mention it. Soon. If I can. So.... stay tuned, I guess? I mean, if you want to. You don't have to. It's... it's just a suggestion." – Upon completion of Airship Down, Rocket's Red Glare, or With Our Powers Combined
- "I, uhh, I'm sorry to interrupt, but... uhh... did anyone out there see that? Or hear it, or feel it, or probably all three? Some, uhh... some sort of massive explosion near downtown. And I mean, like, massive. Really huge. The, uhh... the rumor is that it might've been the Institute, but... well, I can't confirm that... I'll try and find out, and... uhh, we'll have more on this story... maybe... later. Soon, I hope." – Upon completion of The Nuclear Option with any non-Institute faction
- "Hey, uhh... have you seen the, uhh... Well there's this article in, uhh, the newspaper. Publick Occurrences. Boy, I mean... It's, well it's something. I mean, I, uhh... I'm not saying anyone is a synth, you know. I'm not saying it's, uhh, correct. And, you know, of course the mayor... I mean, I was, uhh, asked to read... I have a statement from the, uhh, mayor's office. You know, it, uhh... well I mean it just says there's, uhh, nothing to worry about. That it's... you know, safe and all. Kind of... It's crazy stuff, right? I mean... weird. Anyway, it's, uhh... well it's something to think about, I guess." – Before completion of Story of the Century
- "Hey, how... Uhh, how about a bit of good news? If you, you know, haven't already seen him, which I did so I know it's true and not just something I overheard... Uhh... I mean, umm, Nick Valentine is back in town. He was gone for a while, and some people who are totally not me, thought that... Well, they thought he might be dead. Or destroyed, or whatever. Anyway. Glad you're back, Nick... Even though we never really talk. Like, ever." – Upon completion of Unlikely Valentine
- "So, uhh... some recent activity in, uhh, here in Diamond City... that... you might want... to, uhh, know about. I've heard... I mean, it seems that, uhh, Nick Valentine is looking into some, uhh, former residents of Diamond City. There was a house in... It was in the West Stands, and there was a guy, and a kid living there... And they didn't really bother anyone, but... Well, I guess maybe there was something funny about the whole thing. And I mean weird funny and not ha-ha funny. I mean, I saw the guy, and he looked, uhh, sort of scary, but... Well I don't really know much more than that. But... uhh, I guess if you see that guy or the kid that was living with him, you should tell Nick. Or the guards. Or maybe both." – Upon completion of Getting a Clue
- "Hey, so... There's this bit of news that, uhh, might... It might interest you. If not, just hang on a minute, and I'll go back to the music. If you hadn't, uhh, heard... I mean, I guess most people know this but maybe someone didn't... That, uhh, the Greenetech building was where those mercenaries lived... Uhh... the... Gunners! Gunners, that's it. That was like their base, sort of... only now they're pretty much all dead. Those guys were tough, so... I mean, I guess whoever killed them had to be even tougher, right? And there's... well, I don't even know if this is true or not, but... There's this rumor that maybe... Maybe the Institute was involved. But that's just what I heard... I don't know if that's true or not. It's probably not, right? Yeah... anyway, back to the music, I guess." – Upon completion of Hunter/Hunted
- "So, uhh, there's this thing I heard about... I'm not even really sure what to say... There are stories about... Well, it's some big contraption that's being built out there in the Commonwealth. No one that's mentioned it, uhh... They don't know what it does, not for sure. This next part... Well, I mean it's just people talking, you know? Doesn't, uhh, doesn't make it true... Not necessarily. But it's been said... Well, it has something to do with the Institute. Trying to blow it up, or make it disappear, or something. There aren't... There aren't really any details. If... If I were you, and I saw this thing? Well, uhh, you'd better believe that... you know, I'd run the other way." – Before completion of The Molecular Level
- "Okay, so... uhh, here's some... some big news. Maybe, uhh... Maybe the biggest news since, uhh... Ever? The Institute... It's... well, it's gone! Blown up! Like, uhh, totally destroyed! You know the, uhh, the Brotherhood of Steel? And that giant... robot... thing they have? They went and smashed up the Institute with it! And, like... so the Institute... it was underground the whole time? Man... I just... Who knew, right? I heard that... People were saying that, uhh, that the Vault Dweller was involved... So if that's true, then... uhh, I think we all owe him/her. Like, a lot. And now we can all sleep better. You know, because, uhh, we're not going to be kidnapped, or replaced with robots or anything. So I'd say it's a pretty great day for the Commonwealth." – Upon completion of The Nuclear Option with the Brotherhood of Steel

Like, they got in there and... you know, blew it up. And, like... so the Institute... it was underground the whole time? Man... I just... Who knew, right? I heard that...

- "Hey, everybody... I mean, everybody who might be listening now, which... I mean, I guess I hope it's a lot of people... So there's a story that, uhh, that I heard... which I will now share with you. It's a story about a little boy named Billy. Billy, I'm told... he, uhh, he was separated from his family. I, I don't quite know how that happened, and I guess it doesn't really matter. So this kid... Billy... I guess he wound up running into, uhh, you know, the Vault Dweller. I guess, uhh... Well, I guess that didn't really work out for Billy. I understand that he, uhh, he was sold to Raiders. Now, I... I know, it's a harsh world and all... But, uhh, that seems pretty bad. I mean, even for the Commonwealth. I guess... Well, I mean I guess you just need to be careful who you make friends with out there." – Upon completion of Kid in a Fridge by selling Billy to Bullet

I don't know the details, really... but thanks to the Vault Dweller, uhh, little Billy managed to find his parents again. I know that... Well, it isn't always, uhh, great out there in the world, so I thought you might like this story. Anyway, back to the music, I guess." – Upon completion of Kid in a Fridge by bringing Billy back to his family
- "So, there's weird news... and then, uhh, there's really weird news. This, uhh, heh, this... Okay, here goes... and I swear this is what I was told. I mean what I heard... Apparently, a, uhh... A Chinese submarine... oh boy... was seen off the coast, heading out to sea. I guess, uhh... I guess we should be glad it wasn't going the other way, huh? I swear... I'm not making this up." – Upon completion of Here There Be Monsters
- "Time for some news, I guess... sure, why not. So, there's that saying that, uhh, sometimes truth is better... no, stranger than fiction. Well, you know... the, uhh, the radio plays that I air sometimes? Usually in the right order? You know, the, uhh, Silver Shroud. It sounds like, uhh, someone takes them really seriously. Like maybe too seriously.... There are, uhh, reports, I guess, about sightings of the Silver Shroud in the Commonwealth. In, uhh, in Goodneighbor. Or near there, at least. Anyway, I guess... oh, man, this is so weird... I guess this Silver Shroud is, like, cleaning up the town, or something? One of the, uhh, residents... a guy named Kent... He was supposedly rescued by the Shroud. Or at least that's what I heard. So, now there's a, uhh... There's a superhero out there, defending justice, I guess... Or at least killing people that hopefully deserve it." – Upon completion of The Silver Shroud
- "So, here's something that happened... in the Commonwealth... that I have overheard from two people... who I do not believe were drunk... There was that old, uhh, asylum. Parson's, right? And it was creepy... and everyone knew to, uhh, stay away from it. Well, I guess... I mean, this is the part that I heard, and I thought it was weird... Raiders attacked the place. I don't... uhh, I don't know why. But, okay... The weird part... So, now Parson's is, uhh, well it's abandoned. Like, totally. So, I guess... I mean, something must've happened, right? And it must've been pretty serious... But maybe we'll never know. Anyway... weird, right? News. Yep. That's, uhh... that's the news. Back to the, uhh, back to the music..." – Upon completion of The Secret of Cabot House
- "Hey, would you, uhh, like some good news?... That's great, because I've got some. Maybe you heard the, uhh, radio broadcast... the one from Rex Goodman? That guy that was, uhh, he was captured by Super Mutants? Really bad luck, if, uhh, if you ask me... Anyway, Rex has been... He was saved by the, uhh, Vault Dweller. So, he's... He's alive... yay... and I guess will probably avoid Super Mutants. Even more than, uhh, than he used to. One, uhh... One last thing that's... well, it's sort of related: One of the Super Mutants, has, uhh, I guess kind of, joined forces... with the, uhh, the Vault Dweller. Not, uhh... Well, it's not really my idea of... good company, but... whatever works for you, I guess." – Upon completion of Curtain Call
- "Hey, hi. Umm, so here's an, uhh, an update for you. About things that are happening, y'know, in the Commonwealth. Y'know that big ship... the, uhh, the old sailing ship? The, uhh, the one that's on top of a building downtown? Well, I would, uhh, avoid it if I were you. I mean, more than, uhh... than you'd avoid the rest of downtown. Which should already be, I don't know... a lot. I mean, I guess, uhh, technically it's still there. Only... well, parts of it kind of... blew up. Loudly. From what I understand... It was, uhh, scavengers. That blew it up, I mean. I guess maybe after they took stuff. From it. The ship. So.... yeah. That happened. Umm...

It sounds like, from what I, uhh, heard people saying in the bar the other night... There was a... what would you call it... Well I guess it was some sort of chems deal, like selling them or something... And it went bad. Gunshots, people dead... The whole she-bang. It's weird, but, uhh... This happened at about the same time that Henry Cooke went... uhh, went missing. Is that a coincidence?... Maybe! It's, uhh... It's unclear whether... I mean, no one knows if everyone involved died or not. Probably, though. That's usually how these things go. Just... Just another day in the Commonwealth, am I right? Right?..." – Upon completion of Diamond City Blues
- "If you, uhh... If you haven't been to Goodneighbor recently, like I certainly haven't, you might not know about the latest news there. Now, uhh, I'm not saying I know this for sure... and I certainly didn't have anything to do with it, but there has been a, uhh... A robbery. Supposedly. It sounds like someone... Again, not me... Someone managed to steal from Goodneighbor's mayor, Hancock. Like I said, I absolutely had nothing to do with this, I just... y'know, heard about it. I would not want to be on Hancock's bad side. If anyone listening... I mean, assuming anyone is listening at all... if you were involved, I would, uhh, watch my back. Like, forever." – Upon completion of The Big Dig by killing Fahrenheit

You may have heard the name "Bobbi No-Nose," which out of context sounds pretty funny... but I mean, she's a ghoul, so it's actually sort of, y'know... literal... Anyway, there was talk, so I hear, that she was up to something. A "heist" as they say. Something sort of big, I guess. Maybe. But, well... she's sort of, uhh... Disappeared. No sign of her. And nothing has gone missing, at least not that I've heard of. Which I realize isn't saying much. Did the job go wrong? Was it so successful that uhh, just, no one knows about it?There may never be answers... Which makes it kind of hard to, you know, report on it. Maybe...

That one? Well, I guess it's empty. It happened recently, but all of a sudden there's just... well, there's no one there anymore. I haven't, uhh, heard any kind of... y'know, explanation for it.

So, there's that Vault... it's, uhh, number 81... and it stays pretty much closed all the time, right? Well, the rumor that, uhh, that I heard... What's going around, I mean... heh... People are saying there was some kind of, uhh, disease outbreak. I don't, uhh... I don't really know how... serious it is, or whatever, but, uhh... You might want to think about, you know, avoiding it. The Vault, I mean. Avoiding the Vault. There's really, uhh, there's really only so much you can do to avoid diseases, right?...

Soldiers from the Brotherhood of Steel were spotted in the Commonwealth. Sounds like they were, uhh... Well, they were kind of in trouble. At the Cambridge Police Station... They were in pretty bad shape for a while. But then... The, uhh, the Vault Dweller showed up and gave them a hand. Or a gun, or something. The Vault Dweller helped them, I mean.

That makes sense, right? I mean, they, uhh, they like technology... and stuff... so that seems like a place they'd go. I guess they were seen coming out of it all right, so maybe...

Is it a blimp, or a dirigible? What's the difference?... Anyway, the airship that's arrived. They haven't, you know, made any sort of announcements... But, uhh, I think they're probably going to stay. For a while, at least. In the meantime, everyone should, you know... Just try not to, uhh... Don't worry. I'm sure everything will be fine.

I will try, uhh, as best I can, to keep this from happening." – Upon Institute message broadcasting after the quest Powering Up

There's talk, though, that the Institute has, uhh, killed off the Railroad. The leaders of the Railroad, I mean. That's, uhh... I mean, that's kind of scary if you ask me. I don't know if... uhh, should other people be worried? That they might be next? I'm just... I'll just play some more music, and pretend we're not in danger." – Upon completion of End of the Line

The, uhh, Boston Airport is... well, the Brotherhood airship seems to have, uhh, crashed... right into it... So now, I guess... the Institute is kind of, well, I guess they're sort of in charge, since, uhh... there's no one who can really stop them. We'll just hope that, uhh...

It had been full of fish, or monsters... or monster fish, maybe? I don't know; I didn't really... hear... that part.

A, uhh, a group that actually helps... helps synths who want to escape the Institute... Well, uhh... maybe it's not just a rumor. I mean, it is as far as I know, but, uhh... I mean they may actually be out there. It sounds kind of crazy, if you ask me... and if it were real, it'd be super dangerous, I bet. I think it's way safer to just, uhh, sit here and play... play music." – Upon completion of Road to Freedom

There's talk of fighting... uhh, going on downtown... and it sounds like maybe it's between the, uhh, Institute and the Railroad. I don't know... who started it... or how it turned out, really... just the idea that, uhh, that those two groups are fighting, well... I thought that was kind of news. Maybe...

Very serious implications, wouldn't you agree? The mayor's office has, of course, issued a statement denying the validity of the article, saying all is well in Diamond City. The mayor himself insists that the fears raised in the article are unfounded. Good to know, I guess. But between you and me, listeners? I'm going to keep my eyes open, just to be on the safe side.

Diamond City's own Nick Valentine is reportedly investigating the circumstances surrounding former residents of the West Stands. The man in question, residing with a boy he claimed to be his son, hasn't been seen in weeks. Now it seems the whole story may have been fabricated. It's unclear at this time if the boy was being held against his will... Authorities have so far refused to comment on the details.

The Greenetech building, long known as a haven for Gunner mercenaries, was recently assaulted by an unknown group. From what I understand, there aren't any Gunners left to tell the tale. If that's true, it's a little unsettling. Those guys meant business. There are rumors circulating that the Institute was somehow involved. Now, I know they come up every time something bad or unexplained happens... But in this case, even I have to admit it's hard to not suspect they were involved. Don't jump to conclusions, but keep your wits about you, folks. And don't worry. At this time there's no reason to suspect our fair city is in danger.

That's right folks, the Commonwealth now has it's very own superhero in the form of the Silver Shroud. Or, at least, someone dressing up like him. Crime in Goodneighbor has a new enemy, it seems. Why would someone don that costume? Your guess is as good as mine. Probably better, in fact. Goodneighbor resident Kent Connelly swears that he was actually rescued by this Tommy-Gun toting hero!

At this point it's unclear who came out of that fight victorious, or what started in the first place.

Haven't been able to confirm it, but that's the story we're getting. The Institute took out a bunch of Raiders. If it's true, it may mean the Institute has come out of hiding.

The Brotherhood of Steel also engaged in the firefight, from what we're told. While unconfirmed at this time, the possibility of escaped synths may have been the trigger for this shootout.

There are some reports of survivors, but it seems to have been a very bloody fight. While they have not officially taken credit, all evidence points to the Institute being responsible for this event.

Now that they've set up shop, I'm told the Minutemen will be in a better position to help whoever in the Commonwealth might need them. That's good to hear, don't you think?" – Upon completion of Taking Independence
- "The latest news from the Commonwealth: the Minutemen mean business, and the Brotherhood of Steel have learned the hard way. That's right folks, the Brotherhood has been thoroughly trounced by the self-proclaimed defenders of the Commonwealth. It's unclear exactly what sparked the conflict, but a coordinated artillery strike apparently brought down the Brotherhood's airship. I think that puts to bed any doubts that the Minutemen are a force to be reckoned with, don't you? Anyone thinking of standing up to them might want to reconsider after this. I know I would..." – Upon completion of With Our Powers Combined
- "I'm sure many of you have heard tales of the Railroad, a group working to free synths who are trying to escape the Institute. While it's impossible to say for sure, they may actually be out there. If so, makes sense that they're keeping a low profile. It's a dangerous idea, and is met by some very mixed reactions around the Commonwealth. I guess if you are out there, good luck not getting caught." – Upon completion of Road to Freedom
- "Sounds of fighting in Boston could be an indication that two shadowy organizations are clashing... While difficult to confirm, there are reports of clashes between Institute and Railroad forces. Who or what instigated the fighting is unknown at this time. If these two groups are openly fighting now, let's hope everyone else can manage to stay out of their way. I don't know about you, but I'm not sure I'd want to pick sides on this one." – Upon completion of Tradecraft
- "Some unexpected news from the Cambridge area for you... We're hearing that the Railroad has assaulted the Brotherhood's position at the Police Station there. It's unclear exactly why the Railroad would make overt moves against the Brotherhood, despite growing tensions between the two groups. It's not unreasonable to suspect that the conflict between the two will escalate as a result of this attack. If it does, folks, you'll hear about it here on Diamond City Radio." – Upon completion of Precipice of War
- "I've got some tremendously unexpected news for you, folks. I can, at this time, confirm that the Brotherhood airship stationed at Boston Airport has crashed, and that Brotherhood forces have been almost completely wiped out. There are indications that this was not an accident, but rather a planned, secret attack by the Railroad. If true, it represents a huge shift in power for the Commonwealth. While we're not expecting the Railroad to directly take credit, I personally believe it's safe to say they were behind this incident. The Railroad is definitely out there, folks, and they are clearly unhappy. I recommend not getting on their bad side." – Upon completion of Rockets' Red Glare

Sponsors[]
Sponsors that support Travis and DCR include:
Bugs[]
- For unknown reasons the radio station will bug and stay silent (other stations will work just fine) even if you are in range of the transmission. To solve this, sleep or wait for a period of 24 hours and it'll go back to normal.[verified]
- The radio station will bug and play two songs simultaneously.[verified]
- The radio station sometimes may interrupt a song and start another one.[verified]
- [verification overdue] Travis may occasionally misattribute the Roy Brown song "Mighty, Mighty Man" to Tex Beneke. This can happen both before and after Confidence Man is completed.
- After completing Confidence Man, Travis may only read the sponsor note from Commonwealth Weaponry. News and music are unaffected.[verified]
- The Big Dig and robbing John Hancock, and before completing Confidence Man, Travis will read a line regarding Hancock's reputation in his confident voice, instead of his awkward voice, reading "While I do not personally know Mr. Hancock, his reputation suggests he is not the kind of person... err, ghoul... you'd want to cross. " instead of "If you, y'know are at all familiar with Hancock or have heard the stories I have heard, you might have been surprised at this, uhh, turn of events."[verified] After completing

I also have it on good authority that the Vault Dweller was on scene. You know, an old friend once told me you gotta always "fight the good fight." Looks like someone we know... did just that. We all owe him/her our thanks. Hell, I think it's fair to say we owe him/her our lives."
