WMAD
Written by Ed Shakespeare

Dave Dunlap is there to begin his first day as the host of Madhouse (WMAD), the call-in talk show on the tiny FM station. This is his last chance in radio; his career peaked years ago and has been declining because of alcoholism and PTSD, the result of service in Vietnam so long ago. On his first night at work, it becomes apparent that one of the show�s regular callers, is planning to kill herself. Dave makes a decision that involving the police will push her to suicide, so he attempts to save her life by organizing his very colorful call-in listeners over the radio. |
