Born in the tough town of East Baltimore to parents who were inveterate gamblers, billionaire philanthropist Bob Parsons’ early years were marked by hardship and financial struggle. While he vowed his own children would never lack for anything, never did he imagine the wealth he would one day amass as the founder of Parsons Technology, GoDaddy, PXG Golf, and YAM Worldwide.

This book is not here for a long time, but it is a good time.

One of those books that I wished was longer.
I worked for Bob during the Godaddy days. I’ve heard many corporate leaders rally the troops for want of a better phrase Bob is the only one that I’ve actually seen have an effect on others and me particularly. When the company owner gives up his office so others could work and he sits on a substandard bit of furniture next to a laser printer that sends a message. It was great hearing the early story. I didn’t appreciate how technical Bob was and the past lead from him growing parsons technology to the point of his sold and then creating Godaddy a couple years later which led to one of the better jobs I’ve ever had.
Just on the basis of a successful businessman, Bob, knocks it out the park. He probably bought the park and then stuck a golf course and motorcycle dealership on top of it.
It’s laugh out loud funny probably contains more references to genitalia and grenades than most any other business book. I’ve read and it’s not the worst for it. Narrated by the author who did a better job than my reconstruction of his voice in my head since I already bought the book. No this is a very interesting life from humble beginnings to being in a position to make real changes for those that are suffering and usually focused on what many would consider to be unpopular or sexy causes. It’s also incredibly human with regards to his struggle with PTSD and his advocacy for effective treatment for those in a similar position.

Building trust without tricks.
Revisado: 03-06-23
I doubt you could find a more human, accomplished, and interesting group than the first 50 episodes of the Forged by Trust Podcast. The origin stories are fascinating, the host's curiosity infectious, and it's one of those rare shows that makes me want to be a better person.
(working on it, lessons I picked up from this week's guest are the reason I have my current job)
While any of the shows are great to listen to I'm going to recommend starting out on this one for quite a while.

In Thunderstruck, Erik Larson tells the interwoven stories of two men: Hawley Crippen, a very unlikely murderer, and Guglielmo Marconi, the obsessive creator of a seemingly supernatural means of communication. Their lives intersect during one of the greatest criminal chases of all time.

Three dots out of five.
Revisado: 03-28-18
Book has missed words ,noticeable changes in voice and a delivery that’s borderline acceptable . Story is light on science of radio and while it goes more into the forensic science , there’s not that much , with more gory detail that seemed out of place re the lack in other areas . It’s ok but a pretty weak title given the two subjects he’s trying to bring home

Hank was a dying breed on the space station Belvaille. The criminal gangs that had once made their homes there were forced out by the corporations that had taken over since the facility became an Independent Protectorate. Instead of the gentlemanly gang wars that had once dominated the scene, and made Hank's services prized as a negotiator, the city was now plagued by the clash of corporate armies using heavy weapons. Even tanks roamed the streets regularly.

Hank's getting thicker and maybe wearing thin?

The first book was good enough to get me here, but this one is pushing the guilty pleasure feeling into guilty I'm not listening to something with a few more Ideas and a larger vocabulary.
