The character of the Cisco Kid was originally created in this short story by O. Henry, but he went through a huge transformation before he became the character widely known today. 

The Cisco Kid is not a beloved character in his first appearance in today’s story, first published in 1907. Nope, he’s a vicious killer. However, by the time of his third feature film, The Old Arizona in 1927, Cisco was revamped as a witty Mexican hero, winning the Oscar for Best Actor for Warner Brothers – the second ever given!

Nearly thirty films were produced with the character, along with 156 television episodes produced between 1950 and 1956. 

But in today’s story by O. Henry, Cisco is a duplicitous scoundrel. The kind that can’t be killed.

And now, The Caballero’s Way, by O. Henry.

A Christmas Carol was the first Christmas story I tackled when I started the podcast back in 2007. I think most every actor would love to be involved in a production of A Christmas Carol, and I was no different. 

11 years later, in 2018, when I saw how much I had grown as a narrator, and also how much my studio had improved, I decided to record this one again. This recording is the 2018 version, available in the anthology, The Christmas Stories of Charles Dickens. A link is available in the show notes. 

And now, A Christmas Carol, Part 1 of 3, by Charles Dickens.

Safe and sound aboard a canoe on the lake, Jimmy can straiten things out with Molly. But how can he possibly win over her bulldog of a father? P.G. Wodehouse, today on The Classic Tales Podcast. 

Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening. 

The Vintage Episodes are coming back. Did we raise all that we needed to? No. But I don’t like going backwards. I think I went too big too soon. So, we’re going to do one vintage episode on Tuesdays, and one episode of new content on Fridays. The next one will be part one of A Christmas Carol, by Charles Dickens. This way you get some Christmas stories, along with the ongoing Wodehouse tale.
