Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 227
Hot dogs. Poor people created them. Rich people found a way to charge fifteen dollars for them. They’re high culture, they’re low culture, they’re sports food, they’re kids' food, they’re hangover food, and they’re deeply American, despite having no basis whatsoever in America's Indigenous traditions. You can love them, you can hate them, but you can’t avoid the great American hot dog. Raw Dog is part investigation into the cultural and culinary significance of hot dogs and part travelogue documenting a cross-country road trip researching them as they’re served today.

The Only Thing Missing Is the Airhorn
Revisado: 01-16-25
A surprisingly heartfelt, horny (yes, horny) and frank (pun intended - I’m not a coward) journey to delve into icon that is the hot dog and everything adjacent to them (including really sus pickle families). If you’re a fan of Jamie, you’ll love it and know exactly where the airhorn would be if this were any of her podcasts. The only thing that would make this audiobook better is an airhorn edition.

The futuristic slum in eastern New Orleans is a violent place where any vice can be satisfied - for a price. As long as the taxes are paid and tourists continue to flock to the city, businesses are allowed to operate as they see fit. But a string of violent murders threatens to upset the delicate balance between pleasure and safety.

Poirot He Ain't - But Not A Bad Effort
Revisado: 02-13-17
I had mixed feelings on this.
The author has created a fairly detailed world and defines the tech of it well. But the characters fall a little flat sometimes. For a detective, Zach Forrest is not observant on a crucial social level that I'd think most detectives would need. Other characters also seem in place to mostly encourage the character and assert most of his views with a couple exceptions. A love interest portrayed also fits into an stereotypical role to the point of being almost off-putting.
The performance was also a mixed bag. I love what was done with android and phone portrayals and the effects were seamless and convincing. Less convincing was narration through pain or drunkenness. Whenever Zachary takes a hit (which is often) the narrator portrays the pain. This is okay in the dialog portions but is distracting when the narrator is describing action.

God Is Disappointed in You is for people who would like to read the Bible...if it would just cut to the chase. Stripped of its arcane language and interminable passages, every book of the Bible is condensed down to its core message, in no more than a few pages each. Written by Mark Russell with cartoons by New Yorker cartoonist Shannon Wheeler, God Is Disappointed in You is a frequently hilarious, often shocking, but always accurate retelling of the Bible, including the parts selectively left out by Sunday School teachers.

Not A Religious Man
Revisado: 06-06-15
I am not, in any way, a religious man. The Bible has been a mystery to me for most of my life, and in the past year I've tried and tried to really get at it. So much contradiction, so much violence, so much esoteric detail. There's whole chapters of genealogy and rules on how to eat and build thing and when it's okay to sell your daughters.
This book doesn't solve the contradictions - but it sure gets to the heart of things.
This is something else. Religious or no, this is a fine crash course for the Bible.
