Picard is reading Dickens’ Christmas Carol a chapter at a time on the social network. And although I despise Dickens and everything he’s ever written, SirPatStew makes the story come to life.

I think I still have the audio recordings of his one-man show of Carol, released sometime during TNG's initial run.  It was a marvel then, I'm sure he's at least as good now.

I don't know if it's still available, or if he finished it, but at one point Sir Patrick was reading a Shakespeare sonnet a day on Instagram.

He’s spoken the words so many times he opens the book to the chapter he’s reading, then just looks away and flawlessly recites it from memory.

They were a highlight of lockdown media. I’d gladly buy an audiobook release of those recordings.
