Author: Cassandra A. Good
Narrator: Courtney Patterson

Award-winning historian Cassandra A. Good shows how the outspoken stepgrandchildren of George Washington played an overlooked but important role in the development of American society and politics from the Revolution to the Civil War. While it's widely known in America that George and Martha Washington never had children of their own, few are aware that they raised numerous children together. In First Family, we see Washington as a father figure, as well as meet the children he helped raise and trace their complicated roles in American history. The children of Martha Washington's son by her first marriage-Eliza, Patty, Nelly and Wash Custis-were born into life in the public eye.

Author: John Vaillant
Narrator: Alan Carlson

A stunning account of a colossal wildfire and a panoramic exploration of the rapidly changing relationship between fire and humankind from the award-winning, best-selling author. In May 2016, Fort McMurray, the hub of Canada's oil industry and America's biggest foreign supplier, was overrun by wildfire. The multi-billion-dollar disaster melted vehicles, turned entire neighborhoods into firebombs, and drove 88,000 people from their homes in a single afternoon. Through the lens of this apocalyptic conflagration-the wildfire equivalent of Hurricane Katrina-John Vaillant warns that this was not a unique event, but a shocking preview of what we must prepare for in a hotter, more flammable world.

Author: Richard Conniff
Narrator: Tom Beyer

After the unprecedented events of the COVID-19 pandemic, it may be hard to imagine a time not so long ago when deadly diseases were a routine part of life. It is harder still to fathom that the best medical thinking at that time blamed these diseases on noxious miasmas, bodily humors, and divine dyspepsia. This all began to change on a day in April 1676, when a little-known Dutch merchant described bacteria for the first time. Beginning on that day in Delft and ending on the day in 1978 when the smallpox virus claimed its last known victim, Ending Epidemics explains how we came to understand and prevent many of our worst infectious diseases-and double average life expectancy.

Author: George Marshall
Narrator: John Lee

An Esquire Essential Book on Climate Change. From the founder of the Climate Outreach and Information Network, a groundbreaking take on the most urgent question of our time: Why, despite overwhelming scientific evidence, do we still ignore climate change? Most of us recognize that climate change is real yet we do nothing to stop it. What is the psychological mechanism that allows us to know something is true but act as if it is not? George Marshall's search for the answers brings him face to face with Nobel Prize-winning psychologists and Texas Tea Party activists; the world's leading climate scientists and those who denounce them; liberal environmentalists and conservative evangelicals. What he discovers is that our values, assumptions, and prejudices can take on lives of their own, gaining authority as they are shared, dividing people in their wake.

Author: Sean Kelly
Narrator: Sean Kelly

A love letter to the hard-rocking, but often snubbed, music of the era of excess: the 1980s. There may be no more joyous iteration in all of music than 1980s hard rock. It was an era where the musical and cultural ideals of rebellion and freedom of the great rock 'n' roll of the '50s, '60s, and '70s were taken to dizzying heights of neon excess. Attention to songcraft, showmanship, and musical virtuosity (especially in the realm of the electric guitar) were at an all-time high, and radio and MTV were delivering the goods en masse to the corn-fed children of America and beyond. Time hasn't always been kind to artists of that gold and platinum era, but Don't Call It Hair Metal analyzes the sonic evolution, musical diversity, and artistic intention of '80s commercial hard rock through interviews with members of such hard rock luminaries as Twisted Sister, Def Leppard, Poison, Whitesnake, Ratt, Skid Row, Quiet Riot, Guns N' Roses, Dokken, Mr. Big, and others.

Author: Peachy Keenan
Narrator: Peachy Keenan

Spot-on, often satirical, always insightful, contributing editor of The American Mind and mother of a brood Peachy Keenan argues that the only way we can save our families, ourselves, and the world-even California!-is by embracing our inner domestic extremists, and sweeping failed notions of third wave feminism and identity politics nonsense into the garbage can of history. ARE YOU A DOMESTIC EXTREMIST? You might be if you have common sense. If you think there are two sexes period-and that "gender" is a grammatical term you learned studying high school French. You might be a domestic extremist. If you think "fat acceptance" is wrong and unhealthy. You might be a domestic extremist. If you think Critical Race Theory is itself racist. You might be a domestic extremist. If you think civilization depends on men and women getting married, staying married, having kids, and raising them to be hard-working, faithful, and, well, sane. You might be a domestic extremist. If you think your family is more important than your career-then you're definitely a domestic extremist, and Peachy Keenan is here to be your spokeswoman and guide.

Author: Alex Prud'homme
Narrator: Pat Grimes

Some of the most significant moments in American history have occurred over meals, as U.S. presidents broke bread with friends or foe: Thomas Jefferson's nation-building receptions in the new capital, Washington, D.C.; Ulysses S. Grant's state dinner for the king of Hawaii; Teddy Roosevelt's groundbreaking supper with Booker T. Washington; Jimmy Carter's cakes and pies that fueled a détente between Israel and Egypt at Camp David. Here Alex Prud'homme invites listeners into the White House kitchen to reveal the sometimes curious tastes of 26 of America's most influential presidents, how their meals were prepared and by whom, and the ways their choices affected food policy around the world.
