The Boxcar Children pt. 1

Tonight, we’ll read the opening to “The Boxcar Children” written by first grade school teacher Gertrude Chandler Warner and published in 1924. This episode originally aired in August of 2021, and we will continue to the end of this book over time. The Boxcar Children tells the story of four orphaned children, Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny. They create a home for themselves in an abandoned boxcar in the forest. They eventually meet their grandfather, who is a wealthy and kind man (although the children had believed him to be cruel). As she wrote the story, Warner read it aloud to her classes and rewrote it many times to make it easy to understand and enjoyable. — read by V — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

The Boxcar Children pt. 2

Tonight, we’ll read the next part to “The Boxcar Children” written by first grade school teacher Gertrude Chandler Warner and published in 1924. The Boxcar Children tells the story of four orphaned children, Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny. They create a home for themselves in an abandoned boxcar in the forest. In the first episode, we learn that the only relative for the orphans to live with would be their supposedly hard-hearted grandfather, whom they never met because of his disapproval of their parents' marriage. So instead, the children strike out on their own into the woods. We will pick back up at the end of the first episode, where Jessie sees it is about to rain, and finds an abandoned boxcar for her siblings to shelter in, just in time. — read by V — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

The Greek Interpreter pt. 1 | Sherlock Holmes

Tonight, we’ll read the first half to "The Adventure of the Greek Interpreter", written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. It is one of 12 stories in the cycle collected as “The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes”. Out of all 56 Sherlock stories, Doyle ranked "The Greek Interpreter" seventeenth in a list of his nineteen favorites. This tale is especially notable for introducing us to Sherlock Holmes’s older brother, Mycroft, whose intellect may even outshine Sherlock’s own, though he lacks his brother’s energy for detective work in the field. Mycroft instead spends his days in government offices and evenings at the Diogenes Club, a setting that itself became an iconic part of the Holmes universe. When it was first published in 1893 in The Strand Magazine, the story added an intriguing new dimension to the detective’s world, showing readers that Holmes’s brilliance was not entirely unique within his family. The case itself revolves around a kidnapped interpreter and a sinister plot, combining Doyle’s flair for atmosphere with clever twists of reasoning. — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

The Boxcar Children pt. 7

Tonight, we’ll read the next part to “The Boxcar Children” written by school teacher Gertrude Chandler Warner and published in 1924. The Boxcar Children tells the story of four orphaned children, Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny. They create a home for themselves in an abandoned boxcar in the forest. In the last episode, encouraged by the doctor, Henry spontaneously joins a community running race at a nearby town’s annual event. Little does Henry know that the race that he has won was sponsored by his own grandfather, James Henry Cordyce. His grandfather didn’t seem to realize this either, even though he was searching for his missing grandchildren. Also, sister Jessie and Violet resourcefully create printed letters for little Benny to start to learn how to read. — read by 'V' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

Tom Sawyer

Tonight, we’ll read an excerpt from “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer” written by Mark Twain in 1876. Snoozecast first read this back in January of 2022. It is a story about a boy growing up along the Mississippi River, often with his friend Huckleberry Finn. Originally a commercial failure, the book ended up being the best-selling of any of Twain's works during his lifetime, and is considered to be a masterpiece of American literature. It was also one of the first novels to be written on a typewriter. Mark Twain, whose real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, drew heavily from his own childhood experiences in Hannibal, Missouri, when crafting The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. The fictional town of St. Petersburg is modeled after Hannibal, reflecting the vibrant and sometimes dangerous life along the Mississippi River during the mid-19th century. Many of the characters in the novel were inspired by real people Twain knew in his youth, with Tom Sawyer himself being a composite of Twain and two of his childhood friends. This connection to real-life adventures and mischief gives the novel its authentic charm and timeless appeal. The book not only captures the spirit of boyhood and adventure but also subtly critiques aspects of society, such as authority, social class, and superstition. Twain weaves humor and satire into the narrative, offering readers insight into the social norms and expectations of small-town America during that era. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer has inspired numerous adaptations across film, theater, and television, and its themes of freedom, rebellion, and the joys of youth continue to resonate with audiences around the world. — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!
