from Deserted · host Matt Wade

The former Customs Officer of Desert Island Geek joins us. Creative, illustrative, writing, leather-working geek who lives, works, and surfs on the blustery Atlantic coast of north Cornwall. Once an enthusiastic, early-adopting podcaster, he now focuses his creative energies towards a series of novels and short stories set in Edwardian London, in addition to a few that will have you leaving the lights on at night, and questioning the near future. He never has enough hours in the day and hopes there’s some decent surf on the island!

The World Had Moved On EP Paul Birken An assortment of electronic excursions for deserted dancefloors and abandoned alleys.Full WAV for DJs available at https://paulbirken.bandcamp.com/album/the-world-had-moved-on-ep The Swiss Family Robinson (Full Audiobook) Johann David Wyss The Swiss Family Robinson follows the adventures of the Robinson family, who are shipwrecked on a deserted island. The father, William, leads his wife, Elizabeth, and their four sons—Franz, Ernst, Jack, and little Franz—through challenges as they adapt to their new environment. They learn to build a home, cultivate crops, and hunt for food, fostering teamwork and ingenuity. The family encounters various wildlife, creating both threats and opportunities for survival. As they thrive on the island, they discover the importance of family bonds, resourcefulness, and resilience. Eventually, they are faced with the decision of whether to return to civilization or remain on the island, reflecting on their newfound way of life. Summary by Dream Audiobooks Corner House by Fred M. White Loyal Books A deserted house with a troubled past. A mysterious countess who captivates everyone with her wealth and beauty -- well, almost everyone. An equally mysterious derelict who holds a secret to the countess's past. A fresh crime that threatens to ruin a promising young doctor. A plucky young governess determined to save him. Who will prevail? Life of John Churchill, Duke of Marlborough by Louise Creighton Loyal Books John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough , was the oldest surviving son of Sir Winston Churchill, an impoverished country gentleman. After the restoration of Charles II, John's sister, Arabella, became the mistress of the King's brother, James, Duke of York. The family fortunes were made and Churchill's military career launched. In the winter of 1677-78, Churchill married Sarah Jennings, the intimate friend of the future Queen Anne. Ruthlessly changing sides during the Glorious Revolution, he deserted his patron James and joined the army of William of Orange. Marlborough's brilliant generalship in the War of the Spanish Succession destroyed the myth of French military invincibility and won him the adoration of the British people. But Marlborough fell from power when his wife's relationship with Queen Anne ended rancorously and when the peace-loving Tories ousted his wartime supporters, the Whigs. - Summary by Pamela Nagami, M.D.
