The BBC has made available the only surviving audio recording of the radio talks that C.S. Lewis later adapted to become Mere Christianity. It is of material that contributed to the third section of the book: "Beyond Personality." Listen here: "The New Men." (Realmedia, about 14 min.) The original broadcast was on March 21, 1944.
At the same BBC site is a much shorter reading by Lewis of an introduction to The Great Divorce. It was broadcast on May 9, 1948, and can be listened to here: "The Great Divorce" (Realmedia, about 2 min.).
Thanks to the New York C.S. Lewis Society for the reference.
