Author: Jonathan Ancer
Narrator: Rebecca Davis
An outrageous miscellany of serious and light-hearted lies, myths, untruths, fibs and fabrications that tells the tall tale of South Africa. The fibs come thick and fast, like a burst sewerage pipe: Why everything we've learnt about Shaka Zulu, 'Africa's Napoleon', is a pack of lies. Back in the darkest of ages (the 1970s!), citizens were told that there were satanic messages if you played some of The Beatles songs backwards. National icon Hansie Cronje was a paragon of virtue, and integrity ... until he wasn't. President Nelson Mandela told us that we, as a nation, were 'special'. Turns out we aren't. Whether a fabulous fib, an artful con, a doctor's spin, or simply a bald-faced lie, there's something for everyone.

Author: Mike Croissant
Narrator: J. Rodney Turner
In April 1945, Linz was one of Nazi Germany's most vital assets. It was a crucial transportation hub and communications center, with railyards brimming with war materiel destined for the front lines. Linz was also the town Hitler claimed as home and had long intended to remake as the cultural capital of Europe, filling its planned Fuehrermuseum with world-famous art stolen from his conquered territories. Inevitably, Linz was also one of the most heavily defended targets remaining in Europe. The airmen of the Fifteenth Air Force were a mix of seasoned veterans and newcomers. As their mission was unveiled in the predawn hours of April 25th, audible groans and muffled expletives passed many lips. The reality of that mission would prove more brutal than any imagined. Drawing on interviews with dozens of America's last surviving World War II veterans, as well as previously unpublished sources, Mike Croissant compellingly relates one of the war's last truly untold stories-a gripping chronicle of warfare, the death of Nazi Germany, and the beginning of the Cold War. It is also a timeless tale of courage and terror, loss and redemption, humanity and savagery.

Beyond Quick Fixes Addressing the Complexity & Uncertainties of Contemporary Society [Audiobook]

Free Download William B. Rouse, Tom Parks (Narrator), "Beyond Quick Fixes: Addressing the Complexity & Uncertainties of Contemporary Society"
English | ASIN: B0CXQGZPFR | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~07:47:00 | 221 MB
We seem to be stuck, staring at insurmountable challenges. The pandemic is the opening act for climate change, and we need to get much better at anticipating and preparing for these types of challenges. Simply rebuilding bridges once they fall, or houses once they are swept away, is both expensive and risks human lives. Anticipation and preparation costs more now, but is much less costly over time.
We have managed-or at least reacted to-the Aids epidemic (1981-2013), Internet bubble bursting (2001), the real estate bubble bursting (2007), the opioid epidemic (2017), forest fires on the West Coast (2018), and the coronavirus pandemic (2020). Very recently, we have experienced the fall of Afghanistan (2021), the latest earthquake and hurricane in Haiti (2021), and the attack on Ukraine (2022).
Beyond Quick Fixes steps back from business as usual to rethink how we can approach the complex challenges of contemporary society. Rouse retreats, initially, into the principals of design thinking rather than policy making; he rigorously reconsiders our typical modes of operation and explores alternative ways of thinking about complex problems and potential solutions. The result is an integrated approach to addressing complexity to assist leaders and advisors responsible for addressing these challenges.

Free Download Behind the Shock Machine: The Untold Story of the Notorious Milgram Psychology Experiments (Audiobook)
English | June 13, 2018 | ASIN: B07D2HPKS9 | M4B@64 kbps | 13h 20m | 368 MB
Author: Gina Perry | Narrator: Jennifer Vuletic
When social psychologist Stanley Milgram invited volunteers to take part in an experiment at Yale in the summer of 1961, none of the participants could have foreseen the worldwide sensation that the published results would cause.
Milgram reported that fully 65 percent of the volunteers had repeatedly administered electric shocks of increasing strength to a man they believed to be in severe pain, even suffering a life-threatening heart condition, simply because an authority figure had told them to do so. Such behaviour was linked to atrocities committed by ordinary people under the Nazi regime and immediately gripped the public imagination.

Free Download Before the Movement: The Hidden History of Black Civil Rights (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CW73RGB2 | 2024 | 12 hours and 29 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 348 MB
Author: Dylan C. Penningroth
Narrator: Terrence Kidd
The familiar story of civil rights goes like this: once, America's legal system shut Black people out and refused to recognize their rights, their basic human dignity, or even their very lives. When lynch mobs gathered, police often closed their eyes, if they didn't join in. For Black people, law was a hostile, fearsome power to be avoided whenever possible. Then, starting in the 1940s, a few brave lawyers ventured south, bent on changing the law. Soon, ordinary African Americans, awakened by Supreme Court victories and galvanized by racial justice activists, launched the civil rights movement. In Before the Movement, Dylan C. Penningroth brilliantly revises the conventional story.

English | ASIN: B0CLHHK5MK | 2024 | 9 hours and 12 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 252 MB
Author: Jonathan Vigliotti
Narrator: Jonathan Vigliotti
In the vein of This Changes Everything and Saving Us, a character-driven and shocking up-close look at the way climate change is affecting America, right now, and a call to action to protect the people and places we stand to lose if nothing is done to preserve our planet. Discussion of the climate crisis has always suffered from a problem of abstraction. Data points and warnings of an overheated future struggle to break through the noise of everyday life. Deniers often portray climate solutions as inconvenient, expensive, and unnecessary. And many politicians, cloistered by status and focused always on their next election, do not yet see climate as a winning issue in the short run, so they don't take any action at all. But climate change, and its devastating consequences, has kept apace whether we want to pay attention or not.

English | ASIN: B0CY6BY8JQ | 2024 | 5 hours and 10 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 244 MB
Author: Greg Sarris
Narrator: Lyle Blaker
A gently powerful memoir about deepening your relationship with your homeland. For the first time in more than twenty-five years, Greg Sarris-whose novels are esteemed alongside those of Louise Erdrich and Stephen Graham Jones-presents a book about his own life. In Becoming Story he asks: What does it mean to be truly connected to the place you call home-to walk where innumerable generations of your ancestors have walked? And what does it mean when you dedicate your life to making that connection even deeper? Moving between his childhood and the present day, Sarris creates a kaleidoscopic narrative about the forces that shaped his early years and his eventual work as a tribal leader. He considers the deep past, historical traumas, and possible futures of his homeland. His acclaimed storytelling skills are in top form here, and he charts his journey in prose that is humorous, searching, and profound. Described as "jewel-like" by the San Francisco Chronicle, Becoming Story is also a gently powerful guide in the art of belonging to the place where you live.

Become Who You Are A New Theory of Self–Esteem, Human Greatness, and the Opposite of Depression [Audiobook]

Free Download Ryan A Bush (Author, Narrator), "Become Who You Are: A New Theory of Self-Esteem, Human Greatness, and the Opposite of Depression"
English | ASIN: B0CY6Q9ZL1 | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~05:59:00 | 165 MB
After spending over a decade researching the psychology and philosophy of well-being, and even writing his first book on the topic, it took a struggle with his own mental health for Ryan A Bush to integrate the data he had studied to form a groundbreaking new psychological theory. Become Who You Are argues that the peak form of human happiness is determined, not by pleasure or pain, loss or gain, but by the admirability we observe in our own behaviors.
"From post-traumatic growth to postpartum depression, the many counterintuitive stories of happiness actually all tell the same tale. Our overall well-being does not correspond to the surface-level events to which we tend to attribute it. But it corresponds perfectly to something else-something going on beneath the surface of our external outcomes."
This philosophy-infused self-development guide takes listeners on a kaleidoscopic journey through Stoic philosophy and neuropsychology-Nietzschean virtue ethics and evolutionary psychology-spiritual wisdom and psychotherapy. It offers a moving account of Ryan's own descent into depression, his climb back to flourishing, and the ambitious new framework this journey led him to that we can use to decode and direct our lives.
