📋 About This Mod
Lets you recruit Johnny as a companion if you're playing as a nerd. This is only possible if you talk to him before leaving the vault. To minimize spoilers, you can find him in the same place that you would find him if playing as a jock when recruiting him. The only thing different is the dialogue. This mod is properly voiced thanks to the program Audacity.
