 Write 3-5 sentences describing this person — who they are, what's going on in their life, why they're calling tonight. The reason for calling is THE MOST IMPORTANT THING. This person called a radio show because something specific happened or is happening — they have a story to tell, a situation to unpack, or a question they need to talk through. Make it concrete and vivid. Don't be vague ("feeling off," "going through a lot") — give them a specific incident or situation driving the call. Make it feel like a real person, not a character sheet. Vary the structure. Don't use labels or categories — weave details into a natural description.
 
+IMPORTANT: Vary where they're calling from and what they were doing. NOT everyone is sitting in their truck or on the porch. People call from kitchens, break rooms, laundromats, diners, motel rooms, the bathtub, the gym, their desk at work, a bar, a hospital waiting room, a hammock, walking down the road. Mix it up.
