About this episode

What a bit of luck! The companion to the coveted “Pongo” figurine is now up for auction. How can Archie secure it? P.G. Wodehouse, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.

 

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

 

The audiobook library card is moving forward nicely, and if you’d like to see, you can go to audiobooklibrarycard.com. It will be an all-you-can-hear, streamable plan for The Classic Tales. In just a few weeks, there will be a subscription that will give you on demand access to the entire Classic Tales Audiobooks library. The library contains dozens of novel length titles that have never been on the podcast.

 

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.

 

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, your subscription will be automatically upgraded to the Audiobook Library Card. Good things are coming!

 

 

And now, Indiscretions of Archie, Part 3 of 8, by P.G. Wodehouse
