| 0:00.0 | And the Yeah, Welcome back everyone to 1001 classic short stories and tales. |
| 0:33.8 | Today's story, The Sun Lenders by Jack London. |
| 0:38.1 | We always appreciate reviews, |
| 0:39.5 | and we will be covering recent reviews |
| 0:41.6 | at the end of this episode, So stay with us. The Sun Lenders by Jack London. |
| 0:50.0 | Mandel is an obscure village on the rim of the polar sea. |
| 0:54.0 | It is not large, and the people are peaceable, more peaceable even than those of the adjacent tribes. |
| 1:00.0 | There are few men in Mandel and many women wherefore a wholesome and necessary |
