The Classic Tales Podcast

Pets can definitely brighten a dark life. Just make sure you treat them kindly. Or else. Edgar Allan Poe, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.   Welcome to this VINTAGE episode of The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening.   For the past few months, I've been working on a way to create a kind of all-you-can-eat plan for The Classic Tales. So, coming soon, there will be a way to sign up for a subscription that will give you access to the entire Classic Tales Audiobooks library. The library contains dozens of titles that have never been on the podcast. And you'll be able to stream and download everything. No coupon codes, no emails and download links. Two clicks and you're streaming. If you want to download and listen offline, you can do that, too.   Furthermore, folks with businesses, libraries, students, what have you, will be able to pay for a crazy low monthly subscription, and give complete access to all their people. This will be a great all-inclusive solution to your audiobook needs. You'll always be able to find something that you like! The cost for what I'm calling the audiobook library card will be $6.99 per month. Access to everything. For the first month, it will be an early bird price of $4.99 per month.   So, keep your ears peeled for new developments, and I'll keep you up to date. For those who already support us at the $10/month rate or more, I plan to upgrade your subscription to include the Audiobook Library Card. Good things are coming!     And now, The Black Cat, by Edgar Allan Poe   Follow this link to become a monthly supporter:       Follow this link to subscribe to our YouTube Channel:       Follow this link to subscribe to the Arsène Lupin Podcast:     Follow this link to follow us on Instagram:     Follow this link to follow us on Facebook:

A fair amount of his career was in America, but in his later years, his financial straits forced him and his wife Dorothea to return to Ireland.   The pacing and prose of today's story really called to me. The gentle stream of consciousness pacing of a man's mind when his wife has died, and his contemplations really seemed appropriate for this time of year.   And now, The Wake, by Donn Byrne   Follow this link to become a monthly supporter:       Follow this link to subscribe to our YouTube Channel:       Follow this link to subscribe to the Arsène Lupin Podcast:     Follow this link to follow us on Instagram:     Follow this link to follow us on Facebook:

Now he's a pretty famous suspense writer, but with his latest book, Going Home in the Dark, it's actually a comedy. He's told me that in the past when he's tried something like this, the publisher's would push back. They just didn't get it – that it was supposed to be funny. But Dean heard my audition and thought I'd get where he was going. He thinks I've done a "bang-up job" with it.  He describes me as someone "who knows funny – and how not to oversell it".   So, to honor this good news, we have a P.G. Wodehouse story from the short story collection The Man with Two Left Feet.   And now, The Romance of an Ugly Policeman, by P.G.
