*spooky electronic music*

Good evening from the edge of the Mojave.

I'm Don Beverage and you're listening to Sea to Shining Sea.

Yesterday morning, during my timeslot, there was a...

... media signal outage in the Knox Exclusion Zone.

I was ready to do a live interview with a lady called Patricia...

... who lives in the Zone, and managed to procure a powerful radio.

Unfortunately, I can no longer get a hold of Patricia.

But let's look at something apart from the virus for once.

Fred in Arkansas. Tell us your story.

Hi Don. Big fan. Yep, my story begins about a year ago.

A giant hole appeared in my back yard.

Thought it was just a normal sinkhole.

But it turns out it's bottomless, far as I can tell.

How did you come to this conclusion?

Well, I threw lots of trash in, and never heard it hit the bottom.

Then me and my friend fed in spool after spool of fishling line.

We never hit the bottom.

That's unusual.

Sure is. Government geologists came around then.

Sealed the place off.

Gave me money to move to New Zealand.

That's quite a story. Stay with us Fred. We'll take a break.
