  • Summary

  • The sign above his hospital bed called him Sixty-Six Garage. For more than 15 years, he would lay there unidentified and unconscious. Or so, everyone believed. From L.A. Times Studios and the team that brought you “Dirty John” and “Man in the Window,” comes “Room 20,” a story about the search for a man’s identity and the truth about his accident. Investigative reporter Joanne Faryon’s two-year journey is filled with twists and turns. Now, she'll finally reveal who Garage really is. But one important question remained for her upon this discovery: has Garage been conscious this entire time? This series was produced by L.A. Times Studios with support from Neon Hum Media.

important content, tight presentation, compelling

The story, a true one, is compelling without being manipulative, thorough without unduly stretching out or repeating content, informational without being didactic, and satisfying without leaving this listener feeling complacent about the important subjects this series covers. Brava and thanks to producer / reporter / narrator Joanne Faryon.
