I have considered the what's next question, and started to worry I'm going to do all the same things. I really hope we have a chance to rectify all our mistakes🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼. I promised my sister I'll be better to her next time. I'd be better to everyone I have ever known👍🏼

Awww, I'm so pleased you love hppodcraft, and I hope you loved Chad's audio drama of the Clark Ashton Smith story.

Let’s hope that the King is taking note of Starmer’s deep unpopularity with his people. He’s shut down the last few unpopular PMs, long may he reign.

Here I am dragging my feet again at comment 100. Oh my pinball brain! It kept playing, "The darkness must flow down the river of light dreaming. Flow Morpheus slow, let the Sun and light come streaming into my li i i ife. Into my li i i i i ife! There's a light, over at the Frankenstein place..." All the while seeing Boris Karloff in "The Old Dark House". Once that silver ball of an idea starts rolling, it just keeps bouncing around! Thankfully your narration captured it and held my attention and I really enjoyed the story for itself. I find myself looking forward your talks at the end even more than the story some times. I too am a William Brown fan. I found my Dad's old copies at my Granny's house when I was a kid. Thanks for the giggles and insights Tony. 💯

Loved this tale!!!! Thanks, Tony!!

65 years ago I adored Jennings and Just William. The books all went over the years and then, ten years ago I re-bought a lot. I was sadly disappointed by Jennings which turned out relatively shallow and frankly a bit dull. William, on the other hand, seemed even better than I'd remembered. Subtler and cleverer with variation and wit a-plenty. Apart from reminding me how much I enjoyed and enjoy William's company it highlighted what I had never really thought about when I was 7 or 8, what a superb writer Richmal Crompton was. Thanks for this.

1:26:00 (don’t mind me, just bookmarking) (beep boop)

I always love your 'after show chat', this one was particularly funny. Thanks for being the perfect narrator. You are so enjoyable to listen to. You really are way ahead of most. Don't stop using your own lovely voice.

Please do a similar course for Hill House; this was so well written and researched that I am excited to see your analysis applied to Jackson’s masterpiece. Also, your graphics are so well done, even the thumbnails are impressive. I’m very glad I found your channel, I think it’s the best of all the story narration channels I’ve heard! Thank you!

Thank you very much Tony!! Listening to you is keeping me sane, while I'm stuck in bed unwell again!! Mr D is listening along with me and thoroughly enjoying your story-telling with me, he says "Thank you very much!" also!! Peace out bro!!🕊️ Andréa and Critters. ...XxX...

Aw aw all is soo super, your voice, the creepy figure walking, his nails, but then at the end of the stare finished walking he looks like it has a skirt in the shadow lol 😅😂

I'm excited to hear this one; Rosalind is one of my favorites. It was also one of the first stories I listened to on your channel, Tony, and I have been hooked ever since.

Best narrator I've heard on KZbin. Thank you.❤

The descriptive passage at 1:22, perfection. Monica…geez. After I found out the author was a woman, I like to think she was poking fun. I hate a helpless woman. What a great story. I like the end music. This is your podcast, Tony, do what you want. People can pop a gummy. Take a Valium. Toss one back. Whatever keeps them unconscious during a tad of music.

Grandmother, what big teeth you have... ❤

Thank you so much. Heading to listen to your version of They by Rudyard Kipling.😊

"Pixie-infested tin mines" 😂

Ooohh... irresistible shorts 😂❤

I'm a bit addicted to your channel, not only for your excellent reading but your knowledge of what seems to be everything. Do you know of the philosophy of "We are all one"? Literally. Not just we are all light, as we all certainly are, but that we are very powerful beings. We do come back to our next life through choice. We are told what our life will be and then make a choice, do we go into this new life or do we decline? Even if the life is a second long, or a very long life. But everything is all set up. However we do not remember our past lives nor what this new one will be. We do have some choice in this new life. We are also very connected to those in our lives as it goes on, from one to the next. However, we can learn how to change our relationship with each one of the people who enter it. We come to realize that not everyone is the good the and the ugly. That we too in previous lives were living our lives as the good, the bad and the ugly. But always remember we can stop the revolving doors and get rid of those people and how we interacted with them. These are called "soul contracts." Until you learn how you can clear your lives, break the contracts, the current and those going forward, we will repeat them. There are people who can help you do this. It is not some long drawn out event, some are 1/2 an hour long, others a couple of hours. But what's important, is to know that you can feel more joy, and feel less weighed down. This is not a sales pitch, but another idea/philosophy ( which I do very seriously belive in and practice) tossed into the ring. Any response? From a new and grateful fan!

I loved William too!! Never knew she wrote ghost stories! Thank you!

THANK YOU for tackling this one.. I do think the "deep" is, as you say, the subconscious. Memory and/or the deep past that can swallow a person,. Metaphorically drown life out of a person. A bit hard to get a firm hold on tis tale. I've never been aware of the edits you apparently are making on your commentaries. They were/are very invisible to me. Frankly, though, jumps in tone etc that can occur with edits never bothered me (Same the quality of the microphone, and such that people seem to be so very fussy about). You mention that you are doing work on commission. I guess I've never tracked what you do besides these stunningly good narrations. Thanks again for this work. I tell others they MUST hear your work. I sure would love to support your work/kickstarter etc, but I am not in any position to do that.. Your storytelling means a whole lot to me because I'm no longer able to read much at all due to accelerating loss of vision (injections have slowed but not prevented). This is why contributing would be hard as I can no longer work, other than in the most forgiving of circumstnces. Even making comments back---which I love to do----is increasingly difficult since requires a lot of fixes with a magnifier. So you can at least appreciate how much having stories to listen to (and books) is terribly good thing from my perspective.

Great job on this Tony!

You elevate the material - thanks for the great work!

I remember early 90s seeing a movie trailer with that creature in it the guy had a torch or some kind of light and seen this thing looking at him . Then the next clip played in this trailer. Still to this day i cannot find what this movie was i was under the age of 10 at the time. This has stuck with me not knowing what this movie was even called for years.

Excellent as always.

I can tell this story is gonna be good based on the spooky house in the thumbnail

Neil Sedaka? Damn, I'm old. 😂😂😂

If you're taking a poll, know this - I don't turn on the TV or the radio in order to take a nap... So, in the same way, I don't click on a Tony Walker Production in order to go to sleep... I listen to the story, and then I take delight in hearing your analysis and opinions (and your remembrance of things past, too) and you always hold my attention. (Job well done by you, as always)...

Can I say a big Ty Tony for these podcasts throughout my hospital stay

WELL! I had always assumed Richmal Crompton was a man! (Probably because the unusual name is so similar to Richard). I came across the Just William books as a kid - and then a little later the tv series with Bonnie Langford - but didn't really get on with either - Voilet Elizabeth Bott and her "I'll scweam and scweam and scweam until I'm thick" was just far too annoying. Also today days old when I found out nee is pronounced nay! You live and learn! This is what happens when you come across words in books but not 'in real life' as it were...

Chauffeur probably went in thru the window, because he’s outside and garage based, plus, he wanted to make it appear plausible that it was a breaking and entering by a stranger and not an inside job.

I too have been falling asleep listening to your work and all I have to say is that I am sorry. Your brilliant performance surely is worthy of so much more. And thus, my sleep was ruined but my heart is full and my mind is racing. Today, the genius of the writing has definitely met its match in your performance. BRAVO! PLEASE sir, won’t you do a reading of The Rime of the Ancient Mariner?

I see Umberto Eco in top left corner 👍

Gosh. I only knew about the William Brown stories. Many a happy childhood hour spent reading those.

I enjoyed your reading of this one---had not heard of or read it before. Thank you so much.

❤

It's not the lack of end music, but the abrupt cut off. It would be nice if the podcast would run for five seconds after you stop talking so that there's time to stop the next video from starting. Thank you for the consideration, Tony. Happy new year and I hope all is well.

53:23 😳 get axe?

Thank you Tony! Loved this

Good to have a scary creepy rating 1-10 for us sensitive people

Stunning narration. More chilling than Dracula in many ways!

Loved the story, and the discussion of it. I'm also in favour of 'end music' !

Also, The Legend of Hell House is a pretty good film i recommend 👍👍👍

This was a very eerie story with a different twist! Thank you Mr Walker!

What a great story ! Would love more of Lewis Darley's work, Tony.

What a beautifully written tale of a malicious fey wood!

Broken down cars were much more common then. I remember, even in the 1970's, we played a game where we counted how many broken cars were along the side of the motorway. Sometimes, we were one of them! Ps- I still love William and loathe and despise Violet Elizabeth Bott. Lol
