Free Download I Love Everybody (and Other Atrocious Lies): True Tales of a Loudmouth Girl by Laurie Notaro, Hillary Huber, Tantor Audio
MP3@64 Kbps | Duration: 7:52 h | 2011 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0054ISUB4 | English | 216 Mb
Laurie Notaro is married, mortgaged, and now - miraculously - employed in the corporate world, discovering that bosses come in all shapes, sizes, and degrees of mental stability. After maxing out her last good credit card at Banana Republic, she's dressed for success and ready to face the jungle: surviving feral, six-foot-plus Gretchen ("The Three Thousand Faces of Eve") before battling the overbearing, overstuffed (in way-too-small pants) new mom Suzi, who ruthlessly cancels Laurie's newspaper column and learns that payback can be a bitch.
Laurie also explores the backstabbing world of preschoolers at a Halloween party, the X-rated madness of a family trip to Disneyland, and the pressure from her QVC-addicted mother and the rest of the world to reproduce. But while losing more friends to babies than to booze, she realizes there's a plus side: for at least a couple of months, she gets to be the thinner friend.
I Love Everybody (and Other Atrocious Lies) is Notaro at her deliciously quirky best. Can a woman prone to what her loved ones might term "meltdowns" (she considers them "Opportunities to Enlighten") put a smile on her face and love everybody? Take a guess.

How Hitler's spy chief sabotaged the German war effort.
Wilhelm Canaris was appointed by Hitler to head the Abwehr (the German secret service) 18 months after the Nazis came to power. But Canaris turned against the Fuhrer and the Nazi regime, believing that Hitler would start a war Germany could not win. In 1938 he was involved in an attempted coup, undermined by British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain. In 1940 he sabotaged the German plan to invade England and fed General Franco vital information that helped him keep Spain out of the war.

Free Download Young and Restless: The Girls Who Sparked America's Revolutions (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BJ1BJTJ7 | 2023 | 9 hours and 34 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 276 MB
Author: Mattie Kahn
Narrator: Eunice Wong
The untold story of the people who have helped spark America's most transformative social movements throughout history: teenage girls. Nine months before Rosa Parks kicked off the bus boycotts, Claudette Colvin was arrested for refusing to give up her seat on a segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama. She was fifteen. In 1912, women's rights activists organized a massive march in support of women's suffrage. Leading them up Fifth Avenue in Manhattan was not one of the mothers of the movement, but a teenage Chinese immigrant named Mabel Ping-Hua Lee. Half a century before the better-known movements for workers' rights began, over 1,500 girls-some as young as ten-walked out of factories in Lowell, Massachusetts, demanding safer working conditions and higher wages in one of the nation's first-ever labor strikes.

Author: Maurice Isserman
Narrator: Brett Barry
The world had not fully recovered from the horror of World War I or the anguish of its catastrophic aftermath, the Great Depression, before an even greater war commenced. The Third Reich of Adolf Hitler threatened to dominate all of Europe, and as the physicist Albert Einstein rushed to bring to the attention of President Franklin Roosevelt, the limitless destructive power of the atom was well within the reach of Nazi Germany. This revised edition of World War II presents the complete story of America's war in Europe and the Pacific, from Pearl Harbor to the Normandy invasion to the Japanese surrender aboard the USS Missouri.

Author: Ben Ansell
Narrator: Ben Ansell
A rising star on why the political system fails to deliver things we all want-democracy, equality, solidarity, security and prosperity-and what can be done to create a just, equitable, prosperous and environmentally sane society. The dawn of the twenty-first century had the promise of a golden age. The economy was stable and growing, social peace seemed possible, and technology appeared benign. The past years have awakened us from this complacency. We have long known what needs to be done to save the world from climate disaster. Why do we continue on the path of self-destruction? The immense wealth of the United States should make poverty a historical curiosity. Why is income inequality growing and the scourge of poverty increasing? The vast majority of people around the world want to live in a society with democratic values. Why is democracy receding? Why is it so hard to get-and keep-the world we want?

Free Download Who Killed Truth?: A History of Evidence (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0C6BY479C | 2023 | 13 hours and 35 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 389 MB
Author: Jill Lepore
Narrator: Jill Lepore
Many historians and cultural observers argue we live in a post-truth world-but if truth is dead, who killed it? And how did it die? Join celebrated historian Jill Lepore as she cracks the case by examining key moments in the history of truth, doubt, and evidence across the last century. In Who Killed Truth? acclaimed Harvard historian and New Yorker staff writer Jill Lepore traces the origins of our current post-truth crisis. In a series of spellbinding stories, Lepore investigates murders, hoaxes, lies and delusions to reckon with the instability of truth and fiction in the twenty-first century. Listeners will follow Lepore through a fascinating, erudite, and antic journey through the thorny problem of how we know what we know, and why it seems sometimes as if we don't know anything at all anymore. Revisiting key moments in U.S. history-from the Scopes Monkey Trial in 1925 to the 1977 National Women's Convention to the first election predicted by computer, and more-Lepore uncovers the secrets of the past the way a detective might, hot on the trail of the killer of truth.
