Thanks!
To those with podcast recs, you've saved everyone from the Bored Song. Also to those who sent me series and links to free audiobooks, rrc in particular has gone above and beyond.
I never really listened to audiobooks before as they don't get the words to my brain fast enough, compared with reading, but I've really enjoyed listening to A Christmas Carol. Even though Scrooge doesn't sound exactly like I would imagine. (I also had a few revelations as to how certain obscure words were pronounced, what I think of as "Stephen Fry moments".)
It'll surprise no one that I'm one of those who have to read before they go to sleep, so it's good to have a host of voices ready to read to me. The trick is not to fall asleep while they're whispering in my ears, lest I suddenly wake to find myself sacrificing popcorn to the Devil.
