The Classic Tales Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

As an avid reader and multitasker, this podcast has become my go to. Narration is stellar. The stories are great and are ones that I don’t often come across. The PG Woodhouse series are my absolute favorite. I have listened to them multiple times when I need a few good laughs. They are the original screwball comedies! So much fun!

This podcast has introduced me to so many short stories and novellas that I had never heard of and should have! Today I listened to The Machine Stops by E.M. Forester. I’m blown away. Forester’s astute knowledge of human nature has predicted humanity’s march towards machination and AI take over. It was a great listen, as this podcast always is, but this one really hit home. Thank for bringing this to my attention!

I have been listening to BJ for more than eight years. He has kept me company on my two hour daily commute. The ability for him to modulate his voice, taking on each character in an different voice brings the stories to life. If you have not listened to him, give it a try you will become hooked as I have.

This is one of the best IMO- he does really well at reading and being all the different characters. I love the variety- from chapter books to short stand alone stories. Good classic literature for sure. He’s one of the podcasts I listen to as I go about it my tasks around the house - such a joy 🤩
