Wodehouse","description":"Where do the robbers, lovers, frauds, and secretaries all wind up? P.G. Wodehouse, today on The Classic Tales Podcast. Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening. Many, many thanks to all of our listeners and supporting members who help to keep us going. At this time of quarantine and adjustment, their help is particularly helpful. I hope everyone is keeping safe and well in this crazy time. I also hope you\u2019re taking advantage of the titles available for free during the pandemic. Please visit classictalesaudiobooks.com and go to the home from school \u2013 free category to download a selection of titles for all ages, including adventure, mysteries, classic romance, and fantasy. I\u2019ll likely be adjusting the name of the category soon to Pandemic Titles, since the pandemic is still going strong, but we are winding down the school year. With that being said, feel free to pick up the free audiobooks even if you are not in school, have no kids, or just need something to help you get through the day. If listening to a solid story can help you out, please be our guest. Thanks again to our financial contributors. It is the monthly and bulk subscriptions that are largely keeping us afloat right now, as we are giving a lot of stuff away. Thank you for helping us to stay strong, and hopefully help to lighten the load of those who are hit particularly hard right now. Every donation helps. You can find the free audiobooks here: https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/wfrphaw I\u2019m so excited that The Hunchback of Notre Dame has been named as a finalist for the Independent Audiobook Awards. These awards are about the highest achievement for an Indie audiobook publisher like myself. I\u2019m very thrilled to be a finalist. We\u2019d like to thank Spotify for being a partnering sponsor. As I mentioned last week, The Meditations of Marcus Aurelius is on hold right now. It was a great adventure, but we\u2019re moving on, and we\u2019ll now be featuring a classic poem in the special features in the Classic Tales App. We\u2019re starting with ballads, which are basically anonymous storytelling songs. So again, I need to correct myself for saying that last week\u2019s poem was written by Sir Patrick Spens. Nope. Wrong. Sir Patrick Spens is the name of this week\u2019s poem, about a ship that wrecks at sea. Both last week\u2019s and this week\u2019s poems are anonymous.
