Talent Pool

 is a quest in Fallout: New Vegas.

Quick walkthrough
The main performer at The Aces in The Tops casino needs more performers to get a bigger audience. For each one you bring back, you get 3% of the cut (or 5% with a barter check) and fame within New Vegas Strip. There are four performers in all. One is a human comedian on New Vegas Strip, one is a ghoul comedian in the Atomic Wrangler Casino, one is the musician, The Lonesome Drifter, east of El Dorado Dry Lake, and one is a runaway singer from New Reno in the Novac motel. Each time you meet one, you must return to The Tops and speak with the main performer at The Aces in order to get another business card to give to the next person. Once all four are hired, the quest ends.

You do not need to revisit The Tops to get business cards after each person, there are 4 in your inventory when you get the mission.

The Lonesome Drifter - Before you recruit him be aware he has a unique Magnum, the Mysterious Magnum. You need a barter skill of 50 to get it. If you kill him to get the weapon you fail the mission.
