About the show

93.3 WDRK is a fictional audio drama and a love letter to the small-town overnight radio shows of yesterday. Every night, Tim settles behind the microphone to read community announcements, take calls from the people still awake, and keep the station company until morning. Most callers just need someone to talk to. Others have stories they can’t explain and some seem to know more about the station than they should. Set against the quiet back roads, dark woods, and isolated lakes of rural Arkansas, WDRK blends the familiar comfort of late-night radio with a slow-burning mystery unfolding one broadcast at a time. The roads are empty. The signal is clear. Somebody is always listening. Keep the radio on.
