Show Notes

For this trip to the Listener Library, we’re listening to Hume Cronyn in “Too Many Smiths” from Suspense! Our thanks to our Mysterious Listener Kimberly for recommending this tale of a man who believes he can make a fortune from a slogan writing contest for toothpaste. But complications soon demand that he go further than he intended to see the plan through to the end. What sort of person could write a prize-winning slogan for toothpaste? Can liars tell when they are being lied to? Why is there so much talk about poop in the post-show discussion? Listen for yourself and find out!
