  • Friday Favorites: Pride and Prejudice - Meet the Gardiners
    It's Christmas at Longbourn, and that means the arrival of the Bennet girls' favorite uncle and aunt: Mr. and Mrs. Gardiner. They're always a warm and wise addition to the family, and now is no different. Mrs. Gardiner's offers to let Jane return with them to London, to help ease the pain of the Bingleys quitting Netherfield (seemingly for good), and her advice for Elizabeth on how to handle Mr. Wickham is as sound as ever. Her comforting presence is a balm to them all, so let it be a balm to you too, as this week's Friday Favorites helps soothe you into a night of peaceful slumber.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

  • Persuasion, Chapter 10
    The Musgrove sisters and Captain Wentworth are getting closer, but Anne isn't convinced anyone is in love yet, on either side. When all of them - the Musgrove sisters, Captain Wentworth, Mary and Charles, and Anne - embark on a long walk together, it's the perfect opportunity for Anne to observe how they interact. Soon, they're at Winthrop, and Charles Hayter is back in the mix with Henrietta, leaving Captain Wentworth and Louisa together, and Anne the only uncoupled member of the group. But uncoupled doesn't mean unnoticed, and when the Crofts offer to take one of the party home in their gig, it's the tired Anne who is helped by Captain Wentworth into the carriage. As she rests, Anne is left to contemplate the pleasure and pain her former lover's warm and amiable heart. Let her restful thoughts be your companion this evening, as this week's story helps you drift gently into a night of soft and restful sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

    Mr. Collins came to Longbourn set on finding a wife, and he's not going to let the small matter of Elizabeth's refusal stop him from achieving his goal. Fortunately for him, Elizabeth's friend Charlotte Lucas has been an eager companion, and when the opportunity arises for her to become more than a friend, she seizes it.

  • Persuasion, Chapter 9
    Captain Wentworth soon becomes a fixture at Uppercross, and a favorite with Henrietta and Louisa Musgrove. It's delightful for everyone, except Anne, who would rather not be asked to referee conversations between Charles and Mary about which Musgrove sister Captain Wentworth likes best. But unbeknownst to Captain Wentworth, there's a rival for Henrietta's affection - her cousin Charles Hayter, a curate, who has just returned from two weeks away to find Henrietta utterly besotted. And amidst it all, Captain Wentworth can't help himself from showing kindness to Anne, like helping her handle her troublesome young nephew. Entanglements are forming, and Anne is left to observe it all from the outside. Join her as an observer with this week's story, as it helps you fall into another night peaceful slumber.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!
