Are the lost tapes in the Fog and are nonteachable perks once teachable?
I really like reading the flavor text for perks and items and what not (my favorite is "You call these tools? ...Really?") and for some items they bring up unique character items. Like Donna's Sketchbook (The fog is alluring. I love it and hate it at the same time) or The Lost Tapes. And honestly every time I read them, I think, "Are the lost tapes actually from the Fog?" All the quotes are very vague. "Buckle up, fuckos! Let's roll" on hope from Nicki I believe and "Take it from an old timer, live slow and die old. The best way to beat him is to know how he thinks." from Murf, I wanna say on Dark Sense. So are these lost tapes able to be found in the Fog? How would survivors play them without any device? How would they have been recorded? On the subject of these tapes, they are flavor text for nonteachable perks, which are available on every single character. So that made me think, were they at one point teachable before Murf, Donna, Nicki, (assuming Nicki and Murf were ever in the Fog to begin with) and whoever else lost hope and fell into the void? Because once you unlock a teachable, essentially the other survivors tell each other how to do AKA teachable perks. They then become available on the bloodwebs of every survivor. Like Hope, Dark Sense, Deja Vu, Spine Chill, and on and on.
Also how do killer teachables work because devs have said that killers do not interact with each other outside the trials (including Legion i guess)

To me, these were old teachables of survivors that either escaped the realm of the entity (such as Vigo) or were consumed by the entity after losing hope. So basically what you said we can assume is right.
As for killers not interacting outside of trials is actually incorrect. Many believe that The Legion chill in Ormond after trials, and its confirmed that The Wraith and The Nurse do see each other outside of trials and are good friends.

Honestly that last part was kind of hearsay from reddit

I've heard it often here on the forums too, I believe certain cosmetics say so, I'll have to read up on it more.

I don't believe the tapes can be found. The game has been out for 4 years and no tapes have been found. But I wish that we could look more into these older perks and items with their quotes and maybe discover more about the past of the realm of the entity. Maybe one day in the tomes they'll designate one for the old perks and items

I think it came from one of the devs streams where one of the devs said that they liked the idea of Wraith and Nurse being a thing but it could have possibly been just a hype up the Valentine skin they were getting rather than an actual lore hint as this was the stream before they got released.
As for the Legion hanging out with each other this has been outright confirmed on multiple different streams including their creation one

Tbh i think benedict found the tapes i mean no dev said something about the tapes like nikki donna etc
Maybe they'll add a challenge where we have to find the tapes and then play them at the campfire? i dunno actually

Oh that would be cool!
Find a lost record that char gets the perk or levels up that perk. If the perk is maxed get blood points or shards for it.
I can't recall if there is flavour text for the killer perks from other killers that have been rendered to the void.
