The Man Who Knew Everything

The mutual broadcasting system presents The Mysterious Traveler, written, produced, and directed by Robert A. Arthur and David Colvin, and starring one of Radio's foremost actors, Chuck Webster, in A Man Who Knew Everything. This is The Mysterious Traveler, and if I can join me on another journey into the realm of the strange and the terrifying.

I hope you will enjoy the trip that it will really work with you and see you a little. So settle back, you good grip on your nerves and be comfortable. If you can, as we join forces with a man who had unique powers which enabled him to accomplish tremendous good or tremendous evil.

I call his story a man who knew everything. My story begins in a small, very expensive nightclub, the Crystal Club. The room is crowded with men and women in evening dress, there to see and hear the star attraction, rammed all the mystic, mind-breather extraordinary.

In a small office with the door lock, Nick Thompson, owner of the club, and his press agent, Jerry Fenton, are in conference. I don't like it, Jerry. I tell you I don't like it. The grand jury is all set to bring in indictment against me.

The heat sounded like context with City Hall and no good anymore. Well, it seems to me, Nick, about five years ago, there was another grand jury camping on your trail. But all of a sudden they lost interest, right?

Yes, that's right. I sort of heard rumors that those grand jurors got a few anonymous phone calls suggesting what might happen if Nick Thompson was indicted. They did. That's when they lost interest. But it won't work now, Jerry.
