Really great story of four strangers who are all struggling with personal issues and whose lives intertwine through a radio voice. Very queer, very racially diverse. Not to spoil it too much, but happy ending all around. Easy read and great for if you want something that will give you a little bit of hope if you're going through something, or just want a story with characters who win in the end.

An unplanned radio broadcast links 4 entirely unrelated stories by virtue of it playing idly in the background. The broadcast seems to have little impact in most of the stories. I like the concept, and each of the stories is fun, but I was disappointed by the way it all didn't really come together. I love the art, and the different color pallets used in each story, though.
