41:34The Martians are on the march and London is just waking to the news. It's all manner of confusion; police knocking on doors warning everyone to leave, carts and wagons loaded with our lives. But where are we supposed to go? A city this size... all moving at once. What's to become of this? What' to become of us? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/public-domain-playhouse/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/public-domain-playhouse/support…

32:43Scorched from my surfing expedition, riding the boiling hot waves of destroyed Martian, I crawl away with just my pants. How am I going to explain this to the wife, wherever she is? And now I wake to this mumbling man of God questioning everything. Very unlike a Curate. Where do we go from here?

45:10I've decided to throw caution to the wind and reach my wife. Myself and the artilleryman have packed some snacks to sustain us. Time to venture forward! Good lord! Are we the only ones left alive?? Hopefully there is a smashing good fight scene as our brave British military gets their shot at these Martian brutes! And how does the sound man get so close? It's like a death beam right in your own living room for those listening at home. Also, we discuss Orson Welles and his presentation of War of the Worlds. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/public-domain-playhouse/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/public-domain-playhouse/support…

37:10Since I crashed my cart and killed the horse, I don't know how I'll get home with those... giant, Martian heat ray tripods stalking the countryside. I know... I'll just crawl to the house. And when I get there, I'll just stare furtively out the window. I just hope company doesn't stop by.

26:08It starts as a slow news day. Chatting with the neighbor over the fence, a jaunty breakfast with tea and crumpets. Nothing really to report. Besides, the military has got the Martians surrounded. Perhaps I can chat with them and get some news. But, just as I figured, they know less than me. Ah, well. Time to stroll back for dinner. I hear it's supposed to be a good night for artillery fire... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/public-domain-playhouse/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/public-domain-playhouse/support…

Everyone's here! Everyone, that is except for the handful of people who were incinerated last night.

19:04Wow- that Martian heat ray really set the place on fire, including most of the people standing near. I ran for cover but had to stop and collect my thoughts. Eh... what's that? More folk are showing up? Everyone, it seems, but the military. I recall that annihilation, that sweeping circle of death.

24:04So, the cylinder shot from Mars opened and out came something dripping saliva and waving oozing tentacles about. Everyone ran, screaming, for cover, but no one seems to be able to come to grips with their their fear versus curiosity. Maybe folks just misunderstood the poor thing in the pit and should go back for another look. I mean, just bvecause this chapter is titled, "The Heat Ray" doesn't mean it's something bad. Maybe Martians use a heat ray to keep snacks fresh, or to dry their drippy fangs. I guess you'll have to listen to find out! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/public-domain-playhouse/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/public-domain-playhouse/support…

18:54Huh. Go figure. A few months ago, we saw some flashes of light on the surface of Mars. Now a meteorite lands right here, in Horsell Commons! Weird that it's a cylinder though. Told those lads to stop throwing stones at it too, not sure what to make of the bloody thing. Pretty boring really. Not much more to see than if it were a downed tree or overturned cart... Now... why the newsboys cried "Extra! Extra! Message from Mars!" is another mystery. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/public-domain-playhouse/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/public-domain-playhouse/support…

23:21War is coming. We know this because it's in the chapter title. Also, "War" is in the book's title too, so there are a lot of hints that war is a big part of this story. This chapter, the unnamed narrator tells us about Mars as though we already know it. "Mars is running out of resources as everyone knows..." In this chapter, the narrator is lucky enough to see Mars from an observatory with his old pal Ogilvey. This is a good place to start, as they just happen to be witnesses to bright flashes of light on the planet, one a day for 10 days. I'm sure it's nothing... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/public-domain-playhouse/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/public-domain-playhouse/support…

47:21The Call of the Wild- Summary and Wrap Up Jack London writes a classic story that remains in our lexicon of euphemisms today, although it was written in 1906. Set during the Klondike gold rush of the 1890s, the story follows Buck, a huge half Saint Bernard, half Scottish shepherd dog who, in Chapter One, starts his story in sunny California. So, how does "The Call" capture Buck in the wilds of the Canada? Listen to find out! Public Domain Playhouse brings you great works of literary history from the bosom of antiquity. We provide an entertaining and informative cross between an e-book experience and a fully theatrical production.
