Classics Clubhouse

Early listen — please don't share publicly

Thanks for giving us a listen.

The first two episodes of our debut series are below, a week before they go public. Everything you'd need to share it is here too, if it turns out to be a fit for your people.

Episode 1 is all you need. Half an hour will tell you whether this is right for your audience. The whole series is already finished — Parts 3 and 4 arrive with everyone else’s on September 29.

Around the World in 80 Days

Jules Verne, retold for ages 6–11. Four episodes, about thirty minutes each. The full series goes public Tuesday, September 29.

Part 1

The Bet

A gentleman wagers half his fortune that he can circle the globe in eighty days — and leaves that very night.

Part 2

The Elephant

The railway across India simply ends, and the most expensive elephant in history enters the story.

Arriving September 29

  • Part 3 The Rescue — a rescue at dawn, a courtroom full of shoes, and a storm at sea.
  • Part 4 The Clock — runaway trains, five heartbreaking minutes, and the most famous twist in adventure fiction.

The Family Adventure Guide

Free with the series: per-episode discussion questions, vocabulary, a route-tracing map, a hands-on time-zone experiment, and a certificate to cut out at the end. Plenty of co-ops run one episode plus discussion per meeting.
