The Man Who Built a Tower at Joshua Tree

from Mojave Static — Fexingo Horror · host Fexingo

Just north of the Joshua Tree entrance, off a dirt road called Cahuenga Wash, there's a tower. Not a fire lookout, not a cell tower—a thing made of salvaged wood, TV antennas, and copper wire, built by a retired physicist named Dr. Arthur Kennish. I met him one November evening in 2019, when my own car broke down and I walked a mile toward the only light on the horizon. He offered me water and a place to wait for the tow truck. But he also offered me a story—about the signal he's been chasing for three years, a signal that doesn't come from the sky but from the ground. He told me it sounds like a heartbeat and a radio station playing backwards at the same time. And then he played it for me. This episode is about what I heard that night, and what I saw in the desert when he turned off his lamps and let the darkness settle in. It's about the sound that keeps certain people out here, listening, long after the rest of the world has moved on. #MojaveStatic #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #JoshuaTree #CahuengaWash #DrArthurKennish #TheTower #DesertSignal #GroundRadio #NovemberNight #LunaNarrates #SoloNarration #AtmosphericHorror #AnthologyHorror #RetiredPhysicist #AMRadio #DesertEncounter #UnsettlingSignal Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
