Thank you for remembering and sharing. As a 20 year old airman, I was on the receiving end of the marines being identified at Rhine Main AB. I’m glad I was able to help get those marines back to their families; I would have expected them to do the same for me. This tragic event was a pivotal moment for me. I served for 36 years and remember this like it was yesterday. Every October 23rd I remember that I’m still here and they should be. So I live as they should have and remember every year. There is a lesson in this book for everyone.

Historia
In You Can’t Joke About That, Kat Timpf shows why much of the way we talk about sensitive subjects is wrong. We’ve created all the wrong rules. We push ourselves into unnecessary conflicts when we should feel like we’re all in this together. When someone says “you can’t joke about that,” what they really mean is “this is a subject that makes people sad or angry.”

Historia
After her acclaimed memoir, Mostly Sunny, Janice Dean figured she was done trying to survive or bring down awful men. Then she found herself taking on Governor Andrew Cuomo on social media and then at rallies. What at first seemed like a futile fight ended with Cuomo’s historic resignation. But it caused Janice to wonder: What fuels someone’s resolve to go up against a powerful opponent? And how can ordinary people make the world a better place?

Historia
When veteran war reporter Benjamin Hall woke up in Kyiv on the morning of March 14, 2022, he had no idea that, within hours, Russian bombs would nearly end his life. As a journalist for Fox News, Hall had worked in dangerous war zones like Syria and Afghanistan, but with three young daughters at home, life on the edge was supposed to be a thing of the past. Yet when Russia viciously attacked Ukraine in February 2022, Hall quickly volunteered to go. A few weeks later, while on assignment, Hall and his crew were blown up in a Russian strike.

Historia
As a highly respected pollster for corporate and Republican clients and a frequent television talk show guest, Kellyanne Conway had already established herself as one of the brightest lights on the national political scene when Donald Trump asked her to run his presidential campaign. She agreed, delivering him to the White House, becoming the first woman in American history to manage a winning presidential campaign. Who she is, how she did it, and who tried to stop her is a fascinating story of personal triumph and political intrigue that has never been told…until now.

Historia
Thirty years ago, Tucker Carlson got his first job out of college fact-checking for a quarterly magazine, and he went on to write for many other publications before becoming the primetime Fox News host he is today. In The Long Slide, Tucker delivers a few of his favorite pieces - annotated with new commentary and insight - to memorialize the tolerance and diversity of thought that the media used to celebrate instead of punish.

Historia
In the summer of 1937, Amelia Earhart is the most famous woman in the world - a record-breaking pilot, a best-selling author, and a modern woman shattering the glass ceiling in the early days of aviation. And then she vanishes. In Tampa, Florida, 15-year-old Lizzie Friedlander spends her afternoons glued to her father’s radio, tapping into the enormity of a world she longs to travel. Lizzie can hardly believe her ears when she picks up a radio signal from a faraway source that sets her heart racing: “Amelia Earhart calling SOS!”

Angry people should not write books
Revisado: 02-13-20
Good story line, very clever, I enjoyed that part.
The incessant cursing and dropping of the F-bomb by the Coast Guard Chief to the girl and the father both detracted from and diminished the believability of the story. The negative Jew comment was also unnecessary by the Coast Guard Chief.
It always intrigues me how people who have never served depict military members to include Coast Guard. Please correct me if I’m wrong on the service part of the writer.
The background noise was very distracting it sounded like the noise between a vacuum cleaner and a leaf blower. There are stock propeller noise out there that would been have been more appropriate for this application.

Historia
Justice Anthony Kennedy slipped out of the Supreme Court building on June 27, 2018, and traveled incognito to the White House to inform President Donald Trump that he was retiring, setting in motion a political process that his successor, Brett Kavanaugh, would denounce three months later as a "national disgrace" and a "circus". Justice on Trial, the definitive insider's account of Kavanaugh's appointment to the Supreme Court, is based on extraordinary access to more than 100 key figures - including the president, justices, and senators - in that ferocious political drama.

Thank you both for narrating your book. It’s an extra bonus when the author/s narrate, it’s like you are there with them as the facts unfold.
Great work walking me through all the details. It’s is books like these that make me a more critical thinker. Nice work!

Great Listen Fun and Fast Paced
Revisado: 08-01-19
Really enjoyed listening to this fun and fast paced book. I felt like I was watching the story unfold before me. I learned a lot about the culture and about all the facets and moving parts of where tradition meets modern. The real struggle of pleasing family and being true to yourself. Everyone can learn and get a take-away from this well written story.
