The Overnight Radio Hour

This is the last episode of the Overnight Radio Hour. Rae speaks. Not about a caller's story :: about herself. About wanting to be someone else. About the moment she realized she couldn't be. About what it means to be the only version of yourself there is. Then the line opens. Someone is calling. They know their name.

What is The Overnight Radio Hour ?

00:54
For my entire life, I have wanted for something else. I have wanted to be someone else.

01:11
I have hated every part of myself that was mine. My hair, my eyes, the way that I walk. the pitch of my voice, the every part of me I was taught to hate.

01:41
I believed that one day I would be able to change it. One day maybe some miracle would come along and

01:56
In an instant I would. I would. Change those things. That they would be changed for me.

02:10
But. But when that day came.

02:17
I knew. That I couldn't.

02:22
That that. Wasn't. what I am, who I am, or even something that I could have become in my wildest aspirations.

02:43
I am the only person that can be. I am. I hope

02:56
That in time, things will change and people will understand that there isn't something, there isn't someone else.

03:10
It is only us. There is no yearning, there is no wanting, there is no lusting for something besides us because we are all that is.

03:35
We are all that is. I am all that is. Oh, it looks like we have a caller on the line.

03:58
Caller, you're on the air.

04:01
What's your name and...

04:03
Why are you calling into the overnight radio hour? Ray?
