Sam’s reference is the character from the Death Stranding Game series Death Stranding is an action game developed by Kojima Productions. It is the first game from director Hideo Kojima and Kojima Productions after their split from Konami in 2015. The game is set in the United States following a cataclysmic event which caused destructive creatures to begin roaming the Earth. Players control Sam Porter Bridges, a courier tasked with delivering supplies to isolated colonies and reconnecting them via a wireless communications network. Samuel "Sam" Porter Bridges is a legendary porter and member of Bridges who plays an integral role in expanding the Chiral Network and making the United Cities of America whole by embarking on a westward expedition. The Death Stranding phenomenon is the series of supernatural events in the world. Beginning with simultaneous explosions around the world, the Death Stranding resulted in the world of the dead and living becoming connected, with drastic consequences for human society and the ecosystem. The Death Stranding began when the Beach, the world between the afterlife and the physical world of the living, became entangled with the living world. Immediately following the Death Stranding, the soul (termed the 'Ka') of any human who died remains tethered to the body (termed the Ha.) This connection results in the soul attempting to reunite with the body, causing the body to necrotize as it is infiltrated by matter from the other side. Unless the body is completely incinerated, the reunion of soul and body becomes a Beached Thing (BT). BTs are beings from the other side who have become 'stranded' in the living world. BTs contain a core of antimatter, which reacts violently with the matter of a living person. If they are allowed to consume a living person, a voidout occurs as the victim's body and the BT's core are explosively annihilated, which has the capacity to level an entire city. The Death Stranding also introduced large quantities of chiralium into the living world - a form of matter which had previously only existed on the other side, which exhibits strange time-altering properties in its interactions with normal matter and living things especially. The increasing density of chiral matter in the atmosphere leads to perpetually overcast weather as well as Timefall Chiralium infiltrated rain that causes whatever it strikes to rapidly age.
