Reed (middle) and Snyder (right) being interviewed about S-Town in May 2018 Reed generally refers to the podcast by the non-euphemized name in the episodes themselves. Though the podcast was promoted under the name S-Town, Reed reveals in the first episode that this is a euphemism for "Shit-Town", McLemore's derogatory term for Woodstock. In the narrative of the podcast, this occurs at the end of the second episode, and subsequent episodes deal with the fallout from McLemore's death while exploring more of McLemore's life and character. McLemore killed himself by drinking potassium cyanide on June 22, 2015, while the podcast was still in production. He recorded conversations with McLemore and other people in Woodstock, which are played on the podcast. He investigated the crime and eventually found that no such murder took place, though he struck up a friendship with McLemore, a "depressed but colorful" character. After a year of exchanging emails and several months of conversation with McLemore, producer Brian Reed traveled to Woodstock to investigate.

McLemore sent an email to the staff of the show This American Life asking them to investigate an alleged murder in his hometown of Woodstock, Alabama, a place he claimed to despise.
