About Stories From The Public Domain

Bringing public domain books to the audiobook world. This is a podcast consisting of practice audiobook projects which I am undertaking as part of a course of study for audiobook narration. These are early efforts, not up my ideal, nor to the standards that I would expect anyone to purchase. Although I am a "work in progress" as a narrator goes, I decided that by doing public domain books as part of my training and publishing them here, others might benefit from (and maybe even enjoy) these recordings, as many (perhaps most) public domain books have never been made available in audiobook form.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
