The Best of the Gilded Age is a countdown episode series of the most beloved stories to celebrate 10 years of storytelling with Jon Hagadorn.
We begin with The Village Singer by Mary Wilkins-Freeman, #30 in our top episodes list. This episode first aired on September 29th, 2024 and has had over 1,120 listens in the past year!
"A Village Singer" tells the story of Candace Whitcomb, a forty-year veteran soprano in her New England village church who is replaced by the younger Alma Way. Upset by her dismissal and realizing she was tricked into attending her own "retirement" party where she received a photograph album with the note of her replacement, Candace retaliates by singing loudly on her home organ to disrupt Sunday service.
Every episode contains a little trivia about Jon Hagadorn as well!
