1001 Stories For The Road Indeed!
I love this channel. John Hagadorn is very easy to listen to. He and I have traveled together a lot and he’s kept me entertained and engaged the entire time. I love the Tarzan stories and the Agatha Christie stories especially.

Love Anything 1001!
I read “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court” and liked it but I loved having John read it. I felt like I was there. Thanks for all the literary magic you bring to life through your podcasts! -Therese M in St Paul, MN

I can’t wait
Jon,
I’ve been listening for a few years now. I’ve shared your 1001 series with many friends. I absolutely love to hear all of the stories you share. I listen to all of the 1001 series. My favorite is Sherlock Holmes and ACD’s but alternate days that I listen to stories for the road and classic short stories and tales. Can’t get enough. I hope to hear you for many years to come. Thank you so much.

1001 Stories for the Road
I love listening to Jon read Agatha Christie as I try not to fall asleep so I don’t miss any of the much-loved stories of yesteryear.
I’m new these podcasts and tickled by their stress-free existence. Makes life a bit easier.
Thank you, Jon for the time, energy and work you put into making your podcast a success.

Please stop!!!
Jon, I’ve been listening for a very long time, so you understand that I am a fan. It hurts, but it needs to be said….
STOP TRYING TO DO A FRENCH ACCENT
You sound like a Russian who, in turn, is trying to do a French accent and is failing badly.
Since we’re providing constructive feedback, then it should also be said…. you NEED an editor. You frequently mispronounce common English words and you don’t employ the intention of the punctuation. This is especially apparent in the use (or misuse) of periods and commas.
Since you are in the “Big Time” now start raising the level of production values. This is where you will need to focus in order to compete with the professional studios that have entered the podcast industry.
I know it stings to hear criticism. I can only say it is offered to help improve your situation.
There’s a dozen little things that were acceptable when you first started out (yes, I’ve been listening that long) that are now important discriminators to compete successfully at this higher level. A good editor with radio/podcast experience can help you with almost all of them.
Know this too…. The day is coming when you will also have to choose whether you will continue reading versus managing the business versus managing the product (production). Each requires a different set of skills.
Good luck. I’m rooting for you.

Still a Big Fan 1001 stories and Jon
I’m a still big fan of all the 1001 series especially 1001 Stories for the Road and it’s multi episode stories. I enjoy being introduced to new stories (like The Mystery of the Blue Train) that I might not have read on my own. Keep up the entertaining pod casts. Thanks Jon - you’re the best!

Best Podcast
I love all the 1001 podcasts. I stopped listening to music and only listen to the stories from John. He is the best story teller. My kids are liking them too. My day isn’t complete without listening. They provide me comfort. Thank you so much for all the 1001 collections keep it up.
Many Thanks and Stay Safe

Wonderful story telling
I love Jon’s selection of tales and of course his fantastic voice. I found him searching for Agatha Christie stories years ago and have stayed for countless epic tales and mysteries. Love his whole 1001 network. Great work, keep it up. Makes chores so much more fun when I can look forward to listening while doing them! Thank you for what you do Jon.

1001 Stories for the road
Hi Jon.
I have enjoyed listening to your different 1001 podcast. I’ve been listening to the 1001 stories for the road, in particular, “Jewels from Opal”. The last chapters that you posted was 18-19. I was just wondering when you’re going to finish up the book, the “Jewels of Opar”? Keep up the good work.

Great Podcast
Jon does a great job reading these adventure stories as well as picking the stories I’d say. This has become my favorite thing to listen to while walking, driving, and just relaxing. Keep up the great work Jon! I am currently enjoying The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. Job well done

Jewels of Opar
I look forward each week to the new chapters of this fun Tarzan adventure. Since the day I found all of these 1001 podcast, I haven’t turned on the TV. Thank you John for bring so many wonderful authors off dusty shelves and into the light to brighten the lives of so many. When I have a little extra money, (if politicians perhaps become servants of the people rather than their own pocketbook) I promise to share and send some your way.
