Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables (translated variously from French as The Miserable Ones, The Wretched, The Poor Ones, The Wretched Poor, The Victims) is an epic novel by French author Victor Hugo, and is among the best-known novels of the 19th century. This classic tale follows the struggles of ex-convict Jean Valjean, during the period just after the French Revolution, as he seeks redemption from an unjust past by adopting the little servant girl, Cosette. In 1937, Orson Welles wrote, produced, and directed this great seven-part adaptation for radio station WOR. Welles plays the part of Valjean as well as narrator in this wonderful, gripping “Living Book for the Ears” audio dramatization. A “must hear”!

Here’s a great collection of episodes from the classic program, “You Are There”, which re-create pivotal events in European history. Modern reporters on the scene cover the story as it unfolds. Of course, these historic events took place long before radio came along – but the recreations are believable and as factual as possible, and very much in character. These programs are a great way to get a real taste of the significance of these historical events, and what REALLY happened in European history.

Big Jon & Sparkie
“Where Have Our Little Dogs Gone?”
Big Jon and Sparkie (the elf who wishes he as a real boy) were the creations of Cincinnati radio personality Jon Arthur, who in the 1950s had a great children’s program called “No School Today”. Jon did all the voices for his program – Big Jon, Sparkie, the Mayor, and all the supporting characters. Their ongoing adventures were serialized in short daily afternoon episodes enjoyed by kids of all ages. This week we’re bringing you a complete 10 episode story – Sparkie’s little dog Bunny, as well as every other dog in the neighborhood, are acting very strangely – and then begin to disappear! These are gentle, fun adventures that younger listeners are sure to enjoy. Each episode runs approximately 10 – 12 minutes.
