I’m still reeling from the news that my recording of P.G. Wodehouse’s The Intrusion of Jimmy is a Finalist for a Narrator of Distinction Award from the Professional Audiobook Narrators Association (PANA). It’s going up against major titles from Macmillan and other major publishers. I’m going up against some of the biggest names in the business, and I couldn’t be more honored. I still can’t believe it.

You can listen to The Intrusion of Jimmy in the Winner’s Circle category at the website at classictalesaudiobooks.com. Or, if you have the Audiobook Library Card, it’s in the Winner’s Circle category there, as well.

Pirate Summer has kind of dipped in to September, but I thought we could still do some September Sleuthing. Here is the breakout story from Jacques Futrelle as he introduces his greatest creation: The Thinking Machine.

“It is a sin to write this. It is a sin to think words no others think and to put them down upon a paper no others are to see. It is base and evil.” Ayn Rand, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.

One thing I wanted to mention as our Blackbeard story starts to wind down. When Blackbeard made his last stand, and the author mentions that he wouldn’t die, he’s not kidding. When Maynard examined Blackbeard’s body, he discovered that he was shot in five different places and had been stabbed or otherwise cut twenty times. Just a little gruesome detail for you.

Also, and so I guess this is the second thing, the captains of the ships in this story really existed. Stede Bonnet was a pirate known for his high code of conduct. Lieutenant Maynard was the one who swore to take down Blackbeard, and had a final duel with him. Ned Rackham is likely an embellishment of Calico Jack Rackham, who may have sailed with Blackbeard, but certainly knew him. Feel free to dive down any rabbit holes you need to double check.

Elmer Brown Mason is largely forgotten today, save for aficionados of pulp magazines. His great contribution to the genre of adventure fiction is his five-story series about Wandering Smith. Isaiah Ezekiel, “Wandering” Smith can usually be found at Pere Guerrin’s, a rough hang out in New Orleans. His job is to help anyone “who wants to go after something unusual in a strange place”.
