Historia
Insomnia is a problem for nearly 30 percent of adults today, most often caused by poor sleep habits and tension. This audio program was recently shown in clinical trials to significantly help listeners fall asleep faster, improve sleep duration by an average of 42 minutes, and reduce the amount of sleeping aids used.

Love the real audio footage!
Revisado: 11-30-20
This book is phenomenal. I will probably listen to it a few times. Lots of history and lots to learn. This makes the past come alive! It help one understand the joys and also the sorrow of the struggles during various times.
Please, PLEASE do another book with the later dates. 1950 to 2000 or 2020. I would buy it.
Thank you so much! This was a pleasure!

Historia
In American on Purpose, Craig Ferguson delivers a moving and achingly funny memoir of living the American dream as he journeys from the mean streets of Glasgow, Scotland, to the comedic promised land of Hollywood. Along the way, he stumbles through several attempts to make his mark - as a punk rock musician, a construction worker, a bouncer, and, tragically, a modern dancer.

I’ve been a long time fan of Craig’s late night show. He is a fascinating intelligent person with a great story to tell. It’s funny, touching and sad sometimes. I’m glad I got this book.

Historia
In 2017, a routine network television investigation led to a story only whispered about: one of Hollywood’s most powerful producers was a predator, protected by fear, wealth, and a conspiracy of silence. As Farrow drew closer to the truth, shadowy operatives, from high-priced lawyers to elite war-hardened spies, mounted a secret campaign of intimidation, threatening his career, following his every move, and weaponizing an account of abuse in his own family.

Revisado: 11-27-19
When I first started this audible book, I thought it was going to be difficult to keep track of all the names and places. I continued on and was rewarded with a very informative book. It unfortunately confirmed a lot of my biases about current people in prominent positions. This information needs to see the light of day. This is very uplifting and it’s great to see justice finally being served!
This author is not just an attractive human being but an honest thoughtful hero for the downtrodden. I would not hesitate to buy another book by Mr. Farrow.

Music was good until it was not.
Revisado: 10-19-19
I found the music beautiful until the story drew to an end when it became annoying and interfered with the story. The story itself was fairly interesting but it was pretty much about a selfish man that did what he wanted and left the consequences to everyone else. Very devastating for all those involved. It’s too bad.

Historia
In December 2017 the famous porn star August Ames committed suicide in a park in the Conejo Valley. It happened a day after she’d been the victim of a pile-on, via Twitter, by fellow porn professionals - punishment for her tweeting something deemed homophobic. A month later, August’s husband, Kevin, connected with Jon Ronson to tell the story of how Twitter bullying killed his wife. What neither Kevin nor Ronson realized was that Ronson would soon hear rumors and secrets hinting at a very different story - something mysterious and unexpected and terrible.

Revisado: 10-07-19
I’m a woman that sees porn as boring. When I look at porn it seems so ridiculous. In my head I imagine the cameras and lights people and the general business of it.
This book was anything but boring. Jon Ronson knows how to keep you guessing as he weaves this story back and forth. It was fascinating and tragic. Unfortunately it includes a beautiful woman that was both needy and out of control who saw no alternative than to take her life.

Historia
Being one of the guys isn't all it's cracked up to be. So when journalist Chastity O'Neill returns to her hometown, she decides it's time to start working on some of those feminine wiles. Two tiny problems: one - she's five feet and 11 inches of rock-solid girl power; two - she's cursed with four alpha-male older brothers. While doing a story on local heroes, she meets a hunky doctor, and things start to look up. Now there's only one problem: Trevor Meade, her first love and the one man she's never quite gotten over....

Love the story. Love the performance. Very sweet. Poignant.
I have to say 15 words but I believe brevity can be more meaningful or useful in this case. Their rules not mine.

My favorite author!
Revisado: 07-19-17
David Sedaris is my very favorite storyteller. I now own 5 of his Audiobooks, some that I've laughed my way through several times. His sense of humor is unusual. You won't hear anything else like it.
There are some very poignant pieces. He makes me think, he makes me laugh, there is some sadness and the ick factor comes in occasionally but it's always interesting. I don't know why exactly but it's not my job to understand. I just enjoy.
I'm glad I listened all the way through the credits for the fun at the end. Brilliant!
Thank you David. I love your stuff!

Historia
More than 30 years ago, nutrition researcher T. Colin Campbell and his team at Cornell University, in partnership with teams in China and England, embarked upon the most comprehensive study ever undertaken of the relationship between diet and the risk of developing disease. What they found, when combined with findings in Campbell's laboratory, opened their eyes to the dangers of a diet high in animal protein and the unparalleled health benefits of a whole foods, plant-based diet.

If you are sick and don't know where to turn, read this book.
Revisado: 07-13-17
Who else would have written this? Thank you Campbell and Campbell!
I'm so grateful for all the doctors and scientists who put their necks on the chopping block so that we could have this information. Because of these people I expect never to be at the mercy of the medical establishment for any of the avoidable diet related diseases. I can take control of my health! Something I never would have known without this book.
Thank you.

Historia
The definitive, intimate, no-holds-barred biography of Johnny Cash. People don't just listen to Johnny Cash - they believe in him. Although part of his life has been told on film, there are many compelling layers to his story that have remained hidden - until now. Robert Hilburn tells the unvarnished truth about a musical icon whose personal life was far more troubled and his artistry much more profound than even his most devoted fans have realized.

Johnny Cash had an interesting but very conflicted life. This was a good listen. I loved the performance. I could listen to that guy all day.
