The adventures of serial impostor Stanley Clifford Weyman
Over the span of half a century, Brooklyn impostor Stanley Clifford Weyman impersonated everyone from a Navy admiral to a sanitation expert.

In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast, we'll review Weyman's surprisingly successful career and describe some of his more audacious undertakings.
We'll also puzzle over why the police would arrest an unremarkable bus passenger.
