[TRANSCRIPT]
[click, static] [beeps]
Alright, goddammit, my curiosity got the best of me. I translated your fucking message.
[click, static]
Sorry, I don’t mean to be—
[click, static]
If I’m right, you said: “Sorry. Can’t speak. No voice.”
[click, static]
Which...well, aren’t I the asshole? I didn’t—I didn’t know. Obviously. How could I have?
I’m not sure—I don’t know exactly what you mean by that. If you just don’t have anything—a mic or any PTT device—to speak into or if there’s something...if you can’t speak, physically. I don’t want to assume. It’s none of my business really and I didn’t mean to make you feel—
[click, static]
If I had known, I wouldn’t’ve acted that way, I don’t think. I wouldn’t be cruel about something you can’t control. God, I hope I wouldn’t be.
So...you don’t have to tell me more. Not about that. But I would like to know more, if I could. About—
[click, static]
God, about anything. Anything you could tell me about you or the way you’ve spent the last six years or the view outside your window... whatever.
[click, static]
And I guess...I can keep talking too. I’m still— [click, static]
Look, I’m not thrilled with this situation. But it’s not like we’re talking on a private channel—even if I wasn’t talking to you, I’d be talking. Clearly I can’t stop.
That’s all to say—if you have questions. Well. Maybe I can answer them. Not that I feel like I have any answers.
[click, static]
Alright, well, yeah. I’m sorry. For the other week. But, uh, thanks for being honest with me, I guess. Or, I assume you’re being honest, I guess a lot of this is a leap of faith. But what else is there these days?

BREAKER WHISKEY is an ongoing, daily microfiction podcast exploring one woman’s journey to find additional survivors in an America made empty by an unknown event in the late 1960s. In 1968, two women find themselves in rural Pennsylvania during what turns out to be some kind of apocalyptic event. By the time they discover that everyone else is gone, it’s too late to figure out what happened. Despite not liking each other at all, the women work together to survive, until six years later one of them sets out on her own, driving around the country to find other survivors. This is her, calling out to anyone who might listen. BREAKER WHISKEY is made by Lauren Shippen and recorded on a 1976 Midland CB Radio. It releases daily, Monday through Friday. If you would like the entire week's episodes as one single download, released on Monday, you can support the show at patreon.com/breakerwhiskey or by becoming an Atypical Plus supporter at atypicalartists.co/support.
