The narrator tells us that the lights are out, so he has to ride all the way to Fushimi to find a lantern. He also tells us about the earthquake, which he thinks is very relevant to today's situation. The narrator thanks the listeners for tuning in, but he wishes the director had used the microphone since he's wearing all the cans. He then tells us the station is calling at 6:30, followed by a style marche at 9:00. They're getting an update on the earthquake from the Nhk feed, and it looks like there's widespread damage in the area. Everyone is out of work, and the ferry service is suspended. The daycare called earlier, but the power is still out, and they won't let the kids in until the power comes back on. They don't have hot water either, so the narrator gives them a mountain of snacks.
