"That's always the way it is; they're so surprised when I know the answers. I can't really help it, you see: I know everything."
Now here's a fun premise: our protagonist knows everything but only knows it when he's asked about it. He helpfully answers questions sent in the mail to him and even seems willing to share his knowledge with a bank robber to plot a perfect crime. And yet, there's one fact he's ignorant of; he knows how he will die but not when it will happen. And that's bad news for you - the listener!
"The Man Who Knew Everything" was originally broadcast March 6, 1949. You can listen to the episode at Quiet, Please.org.
