In this hilarious collection, you'll find essays like “Thoughts About My First Agent’s Girlfriend’s Vagina”, wherein Olivia skewers what it’s like to live in Hollywood. In “Sex: What You Can Do to Help Yourself Have More of It”, she frankly gets down to the business of getting it on, including advice on how to appropriately wrap it and bag it.
In “What to Do When the Robots Invade (Yes, When!)” Olivia offers valuable information on...what to do when the robots invade!

Fun, surprisingly personal and totally worth it!
Rarely do I start listening from the beginning book and have to listen all the way through in one sitting. - I enjoyed this so much that is what I did. Love when authors do their own reading as well.

On December 3, 1999, the call crackled in to the men of the Worchester, Massachusetts Fire Department: a three-alarm warehouse blaze in a six-story windowless colossus of brick and mortar. What happened next - and how their lives and community were changed forever - offers an unprecedented look at these heroic men whose job it is to rush into burning buildings when everyone else just wants out.

The Science of Superheroes takes a lighthearted but clear-headed look at the real science that underlies some of the greatest superhero comic books of all time, including Spider-Man, Batman, Fantastic Four, and many more. Each chapter presents the story of the origin of one or more superheroes and asks intriguing questions that lead to fascinating discussions about the limits of science, the laws of nature, and the future of technology.

Would you listen to The Science of Superheroes again? Why?
I think I will!
Any additional comments?
This is just a fun book. I even enjoyed the Donald Duck part. I have been looking for Heroes in modern books and sadly have found few. This book allowed me to spend some quality time with some true heroes. Thanks Audible!

At the heart of these stories, as with all the best of Lovecraft’s work, is the belief that the Earth was once inhabited by powerful and evil gods, just waiting for the chance to recolonise their planet. Cthulhu is one such god, lurking deep beneath the sea until called into being by cult followers who – like all humans – know not what they do.

With his characteristic eyebrow-raising behavior, Richard P. Feynman once provoked the wife of a Princeton dean to remark, "Surely you're joking, Mr. Feynman!" But the many scientific and personal achievements of this Nobel Prize-winning physicist are no laughing matter. Here, woven with his scintillating views on modern science, Feynman relates the defining moments of his accomplished life.

Ever wonder what Aristotle might say about the life Sheldon Cooper leads? Why Thomas Hobbes would applaud the roommate agreement? Who Immanuel Kant would treat with "haughty derision" for weaving "un-unravelable webs"? And - most importantly - whether Wil Wheaton is truly evil? Of course you have. Bazinga!
This book mines the deep thinking of some of history's most potent philosophical minds to explore your most pressing questions about The Big Bang Theory and its nerdy genius characters.

In praise of fuzzy logic!
Revisado: 10-20-12
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
The book was flawed or at least missed an opportunity to show the sheer fun of the scientific endeavor. The only way to make this book better would be to remove the chapters that praised magical thinking and introduce chapters that showed the power and beauty of science.
Would you ever listen to anything by Dean Kowalski (Editor) and William Irwin (Editor) again?
I would be hesitant to read anything by these editors again.
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
The performance was compitent and included good change of voice.
Any additional comments?
This book could have been great if it had more than two lines that showed how important science is. I did not feel good about science when listening to this. I reject one authors claim that science and religion are equally valid. The value of any hypothesis should be made on the basis of consequence and predictive power. Religion does not make any testable predictions and constantly draws flawed conclusions. Scientists believe because of the facts and the religious often believe despite them.-These are not equally valid positions!

On the surface, Iron Man appears to be a straightforward superhero, another rich guy fighting crime with fancy gadgets. But beneath the shiny armor and flashy technology lies Tony Stark, brilliant inventor and eccentric playboy, struggling to balance his desires, addictions, and relationships with his duties as the Armored Avenger. Iron Man and Philosophy explores the many philosophical issues that emerge from the essential conflicts found in the decades of Iron Man stories in comics and movies.
