One radio station. One last night. Calls from every year.

Saturday night, October 27, 1962. The whole country is waiting to hear whether the Cuban Missile Crisis ends in war, and WVFQ, a 250-watt station on Main Street in Cedar Ridge, Ohio, is on the air for the very last time. Walt Hollis has been the overnight man for twenty-two years. Tonight he keeps the request line open until sign-off, and the calls start coming in from other years. Six episodes, one for each hour from midnight to dawn.
