Fabulous choices!
These many podcasts by Jon Hagadorn are all wonderful and read so well! I love all the different genres he delves into. He finds stories I've never heard of by famous writers and great stories by writers I am not familiar with. You Can't get better than Jon Hagadorns multiple podcasts! He must work around the clock to keep us all in fabulous entertainment. Thank You!!

You have in your own way saved me from loneliness and boredom and mental malaise. I love all the 1001 podcasts and wonder at you for getting it all put out there. Thank you with love from Patty Peebles, Bluefield Wv USA

Great storytelling!
I have been enjoying several of the 1001 podcasts for the last few years. This is my current favorite. I have enjoyed a few of the stories so much that I purchased the books for our family. Thank you John Hagadorn for sharing your gift of storytelling. I feel like I have a kind and interesting grandpa reading to me. It’s relaxing and entertaining.

Great Stories and Reading Voice but…
Please stop using the sound effects and background music. At times I could barely hear the audio of the story. At other points the sound effects made no sense, like jungle noises when the story said the jungle was quiet, or gunshots occurring several sentences after they were mentioned. I’d much prefer just a plain read of each story without all the added effects.

The Tenor
Jon - loved, loved, loved your rendition of The Tenor! Your creation of the tenor’s voice and accent was so entertaining, and the end was so appropriate given the personalities of all involved!!

Continually Thankful for this Podcast!
My week doesn’t feel complete without listening to at least one episode of 1001 Classic Short Stories and Tales. Jon, you continue to do a fantastic job. I am grateful for the dedication, time, effort, and resources you’ve committed to this wonderful podcast. Thank you for sharing your passions with your listeners! I love the bloopers you put at the end sometimes, they’re so endearing! You’re the best. I look forward to someday sharing this podcast with my future children and using it for them as both education and entertainment. I love that you make literature exciting! Always recommending this podcast to my friends and family. Keep up the great work, Jon, and don’t listen to the haters! I loved your message addressing the negative commenters, and was cheering for you as I listened! Hope you have a wonderful fall season, and I’m looking forward to maybe some spooky theme stories like you’ve done in the past!

“A Sisterly Scheme”
That is now probably my favorite story. It was well done. It made me smile and it made me chuckle a number of times.

Another old time favorite memory
Another great memory of grandma reading to me as a child Wasn't one of her favorite but grandpa loved them so much he had a collection of Quatermaine books He would often sit in his chair and listen as she read His eyes were getting worse as he aged Blame it on his wounds to his head from his time in France WW1 What great memories hearing you read them

I absolutely love your podcast. I look forward to every new episode and sometimes replay them again. Your voice is the other big part for me. It’s just….comforting and familiar. Thank you for the time away you give me when I get lost in your stories. Please keep it up. ♥️

Such a pleasure!
What a pleasure to listen to your stories! You choose stories with such beautiful writing, and your voicing brings out the best in these wonderful tales. It’s clear you have great respect for the authors, and do your very best to make their work every bit as compelling as it is in print. I especially like the stories set in France, and you do a nice job with French words and terms. With all the pressures of daily life, it’s great to lose myself in one of your stories and blot out the whole outside world while I wait to find out what happens! Five stars, for sure.

Baseball stories of old
The stories by Zane Gray are truly inspiring and amazing Brings back great memories of childhood And hopefully it will be heard again by some child who will be inspired to tryout for a local school or community team To bad baseball isn't as popular as it was It helps teach children math and other skills More than one mathematical or physics scientist was inspired to learn baseball statistics And to read the local sports news to keep up with their college and major leagues teams

Merlin’s Betrayal - Wonderful!
Jon - I just finished listening to the first installment of the Betrayal of Merlin - great topic and expertly read! I felt like I was back in my early grade school days with my favorite teacher reading a fascinating book to the class! Looking forward to the next installment as promised!

Edifying and thoughtfully selected!
As a busy mom who doesn’t have as much time to read as I would like, this podcast is a God-send! I often listen with my young children (4, 6, 8) who also enjoy!
