That narration was brilliant, perfect pacing and a strong rich voice. Great work mate.

Great reading - great tone in your voice. Reminds me of Jeffrey Wright. One of my favs!

I have listened to many short story readings on You Tube…and yours here, was exceptional - you are in a league of your own. There is just no comparison - your clarity, voice, pacing, tone….what an experience! Thank you for sharing your talent and easily apparent expertise.

Thank you, such an amazing compliment. I appreciate it so much!

It’s pretty wonderful to hear a real human voice reading a story on UA-cam, especially with more and more inhuman machine voices on here. And yours is not only real but excellent in tone - I’m very happy to have discovered your channel. (Note: I’m here b/c Matt Taiibi and Walter Kirn, who discuss a short story on their podcast “America This Week”, are using “The Bet” this week.)
I’ll put the link to your reading in the comments on their video.
