Historia
Have you ever fantasized about being ridiculously wealthy? Probably. Striking it rich is among the most resilient of American fantasies, surviving war and peace, expansions and recessions, economic meltdowns and global pandemics. What is it actually like to be blessed with riches in an era of plagues, political rancor, and near-Dickensian economic differences? Does the experience differ depending on whether the money is earned or unearned, where it comes from, and whether you are male or female, white or Black? These are all questions that Jackpot sets out to explore.

A masterclass on how the left think.
Revisado: 02-10-25
Excellent narration. If you are looking to hear a rich white liberal complain about richer white liberals you found the perfect book. If you want to hold space with the promise of socialism, grab your pitchfork and dive in. If you have already swallowed the blue bill and chased with the Kool-aid this book will thrill you. It covers every talking point the rich, liberal, elites at the WEF in Davos think you should be concerned about.
BUT, if you haven’t been brainwashed by legacy media. If you’re sick of being lied to. If you aren’t a race hustler and you believe in the American dream, you’ll probably going to want to give this one a pass.

Historia
In 2005, Vanessa Woods accepted a marriage proposal from a man she barely knew and agreed to join him on a research trip to the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country reeling from a brutal decade-long war that had claimed the lives of millions. Settling in at a bonobo sanctuary in Congo's capital, Vanessa and her fiancee entered the world of a rare ape with whom we share 98.7 percent of our DNA.

Dynamic story of a couple whose life is dedicated to research. Packed full of a balanced history of the Congo. I enjoyed it completely. Written in her own words. I appreciate the author’s candid voice even when she is clearly being a brat.

Historia
In Blind Spots, Dr. Makary explores the latest research on critical topics ranging from the microbiome to childbirth to nutrition and longevity and more, revealing the biggest blind spots of modern medicine and tackling the most urgent yet unsung issues in our $4.5 trillion health care ecosystem. The path to medical mishaps can be absurd, entertaining, and jaw-dropping—but the truth is essential to our health.

Historia
For any task you might want to do, there's a right way, a wrong way, and a way so monumentally complex, excessive, and inadvisable that no one would ever try it. How To is a guide to the third kind of approach. It's full of highly impractical advice for everything from landing a plane to digging a hole.

Well written, well narrated. I wish there were more books out there like this. There’s three books particularly I can compare this story to. But that’s not nearly enough!

It was like candy to my ears. It was captivating, easy to envision. Each story is sick, twisted, and fantastic each in their own way. I’m sad I no longer can look forward to this listen while I do chores or exercise. Stephen Lang is my favorite narrator, but it was really wonderful to hear the author himself tell his own tale.

Historia
From the moment powerful men started falling to the #MeToo movement, the lamentations began: This is feminism gone too far, this is injustice, this is a witch hunt. In The Witches Are Coming, firebrand author of the New York Times best-selling memoir and now critically acclaimed Hulu TV series Shrill Lindy West turns that refrain on its head. You think this is a witch hunt? Fine. You've got one.

Let the virtue signaling begin. Lindsay West can spin just about anything into a social justice campaign. The level of hate she spits is off putting. Get your credit refunded.

Historia
Being “shook” is more than a rap lyric for Charlamagne; it’s his mission to overcome. While it may seem like he is ahead of the game and should have nothing to worry about, he is still plagued by anxieties - fear of being weak; fear of being a bad dad; fear of being a worse husband; and, ultimately, fear of failure. Shook One chronicles his journey to beat back those fears and empowers you to no longer be held back from your potential.

Historia
Could we be living in a time of which there is more prophetic writings than of any period in history? Noah Parker, like many in the United States, has been asleep at the wheel. During his complacency, the founding precepts of America have been slowly, systematically destroyed by a conspiracy that dates back hundreds of years. The signs can no longer be ignored and Noah is forced to pull his head out of the sand and see things for what they really are.

I have over 2000 titles in my library and I've only asked for my credit back on two of them; Fifty Shades of Gray and this one. Pure religious paranoid fantasy. I'll admit I was suckered by the high ratings and I regret it. Chalk full of the scripture (a lot of scripture), conspiracy theory, secret societies and the illuminati. If you are semi intelligent you'll skip this one. Not even close to realistic.
