Stay ConnectedTHE TRUTH makes movies for your ears. They’re short stories that are sometimes dark, sometimes funny, and always intriguing. Every story is different, but they all take you to unexpected places using only sound. If you’re new, some good starting places are: Silvia’s Blood, That’s Democracy, Moon Graffiti, Tape Delay, or whatever’s most recent. Listening with headphones is encouraged!

We’ll have some brand new stories for you in September. But for this episode, we're introducing you to a podcast that I really love, the writing is very inventive, thoughtful and at times bizarre.
It’s called Higgenbaum’s Mitzvah, which tells you nothing about the show. So to help you understand what it is, we’ll listen to a story called "Being Content."
And stick around because in the second half, we’ll talk with the show’s creator Scott Pinkmountain about why he made this crazy thing.

We’ll have some brand new stories for you in September. But in the mean time, here's an episode about where these stories come from and the ideas inside them.
In the first half, Jonathan talks with writer Mary McDonnell about our story "Do-Over." If you haven't heard the story yet, this episode contains SPOILERS, so you'll want to listen to the story first.
And for the second half, Jonathan's 10-year-old daughter takes over the show.

Tom Ligon, one of the core performers of The Truth, died on June 26, 2026, at the age of 85.
In this episode, we remember Tom's remarkable career on stage, in film, and on television, and share his final performance for The Truth, Robocalls.
After the story, you'll also hear my favorite thing Tom ever recorded for us.

We're taking a break from producing new stories, so in this episode we're featuring John Dryden's BBC series There's Something I Need to Tell You. It's a smart, suspenseful thriller that follows an ordinary couple whose vacation takes a very unexpected turn.
After the first episode of the story, Jonathan talks with creator John Dryden about where the story came from, how he approaches audio drama, and the creative ideas behind his work.
This story includes very strong language.
Hear all five episodes of the series on the BBC website, or by searching for "There's Something I Need to Tell You" in your favorite podcast app.
