The internet has transformed the ways we think and act, and by consequence, our politics. The most impactful recent political movements on the far left and right started with massive online collectives of teenagers. Strangely, both movements began on the same website: an anime imageboard called 4chan.org. It Came from Something Awful is the fascinating and bizarre story of 4chan and its profound effect on youth counterculture.

a good exploration of the background and social impact of the chans and Tumblr.
a little uneven in the portrayal of alt right vs the black bloc enthusiasts where criticism of both could lead to a more honest narrative in my opinion.
the same could be said for "gamergate" as far as a balanced examination of both sides.

Most priests hear confessions. This one is making his. Rob Halford, front man of global iconic metal band Judas Priest, is a true "Metal God." Raised in Britain's hard-working, heavy industrial heartland, he and his music were forged in the Black Country. Confess, his full autobiography, is an unforgettable rock 'n' roll story—a journey from a Walsall council estate to musical fame via alcoholism, addiction, police cells, ill-fated sexual trysts, and bleak personal tragedy, through to rehab, coming out, redemption...and finding love.

Rob puts it all out there in his own voice with a good sense of humor. More Rob's story than Priest's for sure.

New York Times best seller and Whitebread Book of the Year, Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney's new translation of Beowulf comes to life in this gripping audio. Heaney's performance reminds us that Beowulf, written near the turn of another millennium, was intended to be heard not read.

My Personal Favorite
Revisado: 11-19-07
Words fail. I love the story, this particular translation and Mr Heaney's narration. It's short but epic. You feel as if you're sitting around the campfire hearing tales from the bard. I listen to this every few months and it's never stale.
