About this listen

Did you ever wonder why the name "Jeeves" has always been inseparable from the concept of "a very good butler"? It's because of these short stories (plus more short stories, plus several novels) by English novelist P.G. Wodehouse.

Hapless gadfly Bertie Wooster relies on his man Jeeves for just about everything, from clothing advice to getting his various dim-bulb friends out of money-related scrapes. And if they fight sometimes, that's OK, because Bertie always eventually realizes that Jeeves was right to be upset about whatever they were fighting about.
