In this episode of The Owedometer, Elwood sits down with visual effects artist and author Craig Kuehne to explore the theme of honesty through The Good Place episode “The Eternal Shriek.” From Chidi’s white lie about a friend’s cowboy boots to Eleanor’s choice to tell the truth, they dig into what it really means to be honest and when it might be okay to bend the truth a little. Craig also shares the inspiration behind his children’s book Did Elliot’s Cat Really Do That? and why honesty holds such a special place in his life.
