296 - Emergency Alerts
Summary
Cecil announces a new emergency alert system that immediately malfunctions with contradictory updates about a missing man named Ozia Edwards. As a tornado approaches Night Vale, the alerts reveal that three identical Ozias have formed a triangle in the sand wastes. The tornado passes through this void, vanishing along with the Ozias and saving the town. The episode concludes with the alert system going offline and the town founder consuming two employees for serving the wrong ice cream flavor.
