Anyone travelling through Sweetwater County, Wyoming will hear KRMA blasting from their car speakers. And DJ Jimmy Siren always has a great song to play and great information to give. He warns travellers of downed trees, icy roads, bridges out, anything hazardous of which weary drivers need to be aware.

But most don't know of the tragedy of KRMA. A tornado ripped through the station in 1952 and destroyed the original building. It also killed the lone employee at the station that night, a disc jockey named James Smith.

James Smith went by another name on the air: Jimmy Siren.

    I don't know if this works or not. You'll have to be the judge.

    It works very well, Christopher. The ending took me quite by surprise, excellent twist, and whilst the narrative style was more serious than I’ve come to expect from you, and almost documentary in nature, I knew a twist or a laugh would be coming. Turned out it was a twist!
