What is even more terrifying than a vicious electrical storm on a treacherous mountain road? Siberian bears. Jules Verne, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.

Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening.

I don't know how you are, but when I'm finishing up a book, I'm always wondering what to listen to next. Will the automated suggestions do it for me? Does the algorithm really understand what I like?

With the Audiobook Library Card, you gain access to everything I've personally curated from the public domain and recorded over the past 18 years. Every title was purposely chosen because it was calling to me for some reason. I needed to record it. I got a recent comment on YouTube, saying that they could tell that I love every story I record, and it shows. Well, I do. I'm passionate about the classics. And I'm glad it shows.

Subscribe for the Audiobook Library Card for 9.99 a month, and get access to it all. There's no better way to get friendly with the classics.

Go to audiobooklibrarycard.com or follow the link in the show notes, and discover the wonders of the classics.

In tiny community of Mariposa, an excursion on the Mariposa Belle steamboat is the hottest ticket in town. What could go wrong? Stephen Leacock, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.

Welcome to this VINTAGE episode of The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening.

Let's talk about ads. Now, most podcasts offer a subscription where you can pay $10 or so a month, and you get to listen to their show with no ads, and get a few bonus episodes. Here's the thing – this largely goes to benefit the podcast platforms. The actual creators don't get much.

So, I created a better plan. For $9.99 per month, you get unlimited downloadable and streamable access to the entire Classic Tales Library. I've been building this for 18 years. This gives you access to longer books that wouldn't work in the podcast format. Books like Nicholas Nickleby, Moby Dick, or The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Only about a quarter of the books in the library were released through the podcast. So you can instantly download and listen to whatever you want, all the time. This is the Audiobook Library Card.

Go to audiobooklibrarycard.com or follow the link in the show notes, and download and listen all you want.

Can Michael and his traveling companion cross the Ural Mountains with a storm on the horizon? Jules Verne, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.

Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening.

One of the things that I love about The Classic Tales is the way folks who normally don't listen to the classics get hooked. I don't know how many times I've heard stories of people who normally wouldn't read Jane Austen, but now love Pride and Prejudice. Or after a few episodes of Poirot, want to read more of Agatha Christie's books. Or Charles Dickens, or Sherlock Holmes, the list goes on and on.

If you've got a friend who might be like this, here's what you do – scroll back through our feed and find one of your favorite episodes. Maybe it's a Jeeves and Wooster episode, or a Lupin mystery, something where afterwards, you were like, man, that was a good story. There's a ton of them! Share that episode with a friend. Now you've got something to talk about next time you see them.

And if you're wanting to try it out yourself, subscribe to the Audiobook Library Card, and gain access to everything. All the novels, short stories and novellas over the last 18 years – I mean, try listening to The Scarlet Pimpernel and not be hungry for more fun. For 9.99 a month, you get access to it all. It's the best audiobook deal on the internet.
