Insanity or inspiration? Today’s story follows Kovrin, an overworked scholar and young professor, who takes a long break in visiting the family who raised him. But when he sees the fabled Black Monk, is it a sign of insanity? Or is it inspiration? Chekhov explores themes of the selfish genius, contrasting that with selfless sacrificing for family. I hope you like it.
And now, “The Black Monk”, Part 1 of 2, by Anton Chekhov.

After a crash landing while waiting for the rescue ship, Leonard Sale has food, water, air, everything he should need. Now, he just needs to get some sleep… Ray Bradbury, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.

I feel like Ray Bradbury almost needs no introduction. As a kid in the 80s, I was astounded at the Disney film, Something Wicked This Way Comes. It ticked all the boxes to my young mind. When I was in high school, I discovered the richness of his storytelling in Dandelion Wine. When I discovered audiobooks, I heard him read to me The Martian Chronicles. He was a great friend of Ray Harryhausen, the great pioneer of stop motion fantasy and adventure films in the 70s and 80s. My father-in-law painted something for Mr. Bradbury, who wrote him back, saying that he had placed his art above his typewriter. Ray Bradbury died in 2012.
Today’s story was originally written in 1948, in the winter edition of Planet Stories. After extensive research it appears the copyright was not renewed.
And now, “Asleep in Armageddon”, by Ray Bradbury.

Can two people really communicate wordlessly with one another? Katherine Mansfield, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.

I learned about Katherine Mansfield from the Pens and Poison Podcast. Professor Alex Moffett talked extensively with host Liza LEEza Libes about Telepathy in literature. I’ve included a link to the episode in the show notes.
Apparently, today’s story, written in 1920, is one of the first instances of communicating telepathically in fiction. Keep in mind it was written over a hundred years ago. It reads like contemporary fiction to me. Mansfield was a friend of Virginia Woolf, and you can really feel her influence, as we weave in and out of the thoughts of each character. It’s almost an experimental piece, feeling out the world of unspoken communication. I hope you like it.
And now, “Psychology”, by Katherine Mansfield.

Winner of 2 SOVAS (Voice Arts) Awards 2022, 2 w3 awards 2021, 2022, The Hear Now Platinum Award 2023, and The Independent Audiobook Award (2021). Shortlisted in TIME (2022), The Wall Street Journal (2007), and iTunes (Best Podcasts of 2007).
Audiobooks are kind of the best things ever. You’ve got a professional actor doing character voices and accents that make if feel like a full cast radio drama. And with an audiobook podcast, they curate the titles to take the guesswork out of your reading list.
It’s like you’re on a bike ride, and you can go to the places you’ve never been before and enjoy the ride effortlessly!
But sometimes, the show can fall flat, the pacing is off, the character voices bug, or the content is hit and miss.
The journey becomes a slog, and now it’s like you’re riding your bike up a hill with a flat tire. Ugh.
But with The Classic Tales Podcast, you get award-winning classic audiobooks that never fall flat. You can explore Dracula’s castle, haunt Ebeneezer Scrooge, sail with Long John Silver, or solve a mystery with Sherlock Holmes.
And these adventures never fall flat.
So avoid the slog, and subscribe to The Classic Tales Podcast.
