Short Stories read by Famous Actors
As the description states, Selected Shorts is the podcast of the radio program recorded live at Peter Norton Symphony Space in NYC and on tour.

It is, of course, different than a play based on a book. The genres selected run the gamut, although dramatic literature is most often selected. The show contains between 1 and 4 stories, with 2 most common. This is a very good amount for the hour. This podcast is highly recommended for anyone who enjoys audiobooks or listening to stories.
