Classic lit with a modern tone, every other week.

From the creators of Myths and Legends, comes an altogether same-but-different podcast set in the world of classic lit. These are the stories of Dracula, The Time Machine, The Three Musketeers. They're stories written by Jane Austen, Shakespeare, and H.P. Lovecraft, but with a casual, modern tone. Listen as Jason and Carissa Weiser breathe new life into the classics and tell the stories of some of the greatest books ever written.

Can’t get enough of Fiction

Brought to you by the same power-duo from Myths and Legends, they apply the same treatment to works of fiction, which leads to a charming synopsis of the stories. I know Myths and Legends is more popular, but I might actually love Fictional more! Keep up the good work Jason and Charissa!

Can’t get enough!!

I started listening to Myths and Legends about a year ago and have listened to all of them before starting on this one, and I feel silly for having waited so long. Jason and Carissa are a tour de force of storytelling, the editing and the adapting on this podcast makes is distinct from M&L but with a familiar pace. It’s a great way to get your lit fix or revisit classics with their fun style. Thanks for all you do!
