    In the lower west side of New York City, a search for lost love yields unexpected results. O. Henry, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.

    With the audiobook library card, you can always find something that will meet you where you are. And you can start, stop, try again, as much as you want. In a Wodehouse mood? Dozens of hours. Need to scratch a historical itch? How about Plutarch's Lives of famous Greeks and Romans, or The Count of Monte Cristo? These are the same recordings that have hundreds of five star ratings on Audible.com, Spotify and elsewhere.

    Also, you don't need to place orders. Buttons to download each title are found in the product description. It's super easy to bop around and see what you like. Now, you can share it with friends, family, or clients. Whatever works.

  • Ep. 1132, The Squaw, by Bram Stoker VINTAGE
    Apr 21 2026

    When a vengeful cat casts a spell, it's best to tread lightly. Bram Stoker, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.

    Welcome to this VINTAGE episode of The Classic Tales Podcast, where an audiobook format gives you an immersive experience in classic literature. You can get friendlier with the classics you know, and discover new favorites. I'm your host BJ Harrison. I'm glad you could join us.

    I sent out a newsletter this week with links to our new products, a note on other stuff we've got coming down the pike, and a link to a hidden gem in the library. If you missed it, check your inboxes. I try to keep it short, sweet, and convenient.

    For years, I listened to David Copperfield, by Charles Dickens every year. There was just something nourishing when I revisited that story. There still is. The characters, the themes, the masterful language, it was a literary feast – and I always picked up something new. I don't know how you are, but sometimes I'm not at a place where I can handle a book. It just doesn't work for some reason. Then, a year or two later maybe, the same book absolutely hits the spot.

    With the audiobook library card, you can always find something that will meet you where you are. And you can start, stop, try again, as much as you want. In a Wodehouse mood? Dozens of hours. Need to scratch a historical itch? How about Plutarch's Lives of famous Greeks and Romans, or The Count of Monte Cristo? Coming up on 19 years of personally narrated audiobooks.

    Also, you don't need to place orders. Buttons to download each title are found in the product description. It's super easy to bop around and see what you like. Now, you can share it with friends, family, or clients. Whatever works.
