Dawn Watch

Season close. The skip opens at dawn and the whole coast hears it at once, including people who were asleep and report it anyway.

About this episode

Recorded live to wire in Studio A on the night of 2026-05-28. One take. The log records the weather, the kettle, and any dead air kept deliberately; all three columns are full.
