You're right! https://books.google.com/books?id=G7Z-t_tfPOkC&pg=PA105&lpg=PA105&dq=Millie's+Millions+radio&source=bl&ots=Mg2X7aNgaD&sig=eY7w5Cvg2lwSOZIJNgNC_K8Yhco&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiU2sannqLcAhULI3wKHRXPBA4Q6AEIUTAL#v=onepage&q=Millie's%20Millions%20radio&f=false And it's a novel, not a short story. https://www.amazon.com/Murder-Can-Fun-Fredric-Brown/dp/1596541164 And apparently it's a *fictional* radio show. I shall have to get a copy. Thanks! -- Dorothy J. Heydt Vallejo, California djheydt at gmail dot com
