  1. What am I listening to? It’s sure not what is listed on the schedule. This happens often. Ended 9:52 on Monday, June 28, 2021. The subject was about the House of Representatives. The next item was something like Letters From Sweden. Next was Elizabeth Barret Browning. Thanks! 🙂

  2. Hi,
    Sorry you didn’t hear what you were expecting!

    Each hour starts with something longer, then the rest of the hour is filled
    up with random shorter bits until it is full.

    The longer piece which started shortly after 9 pm was the first section of Frankenstein by Mary Shelley.
    It finished around 9:37.

    Between 9:37 and 9:52 pm on June 28 we were playing the Federalist Paper No. 58 by James Madison.
    It was followed by Sonnets from the Portuguese #25 by Browning.

  3. Oops!
    I made a mistake in my previous reply.

    You were right!

    The piece following Federalist Paper No. 58 was by Mary Wollstonecraft
    Letters Written During a Short Residence in Sweden, Norway, and Denmark“, letter #25.

  4. One last thing: Although I didn’t plan things that way,
    The selection from Mary Wollstonecraft is interesting because it relates to
    The featured selection for that hour.

    Mary Shelley, the author of Frankenstein, was the daughter of Wollstonecraft
    who died shortly after Mary Shelley was born due to complications of childbirth.
