    Matthew: Our Loving King: The Passion Translation , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 185min
    Four hundred years of silence. Where was the promised Messiah? The Jewish people were waiting for word of the prophets to come true, for they prophesied that he would come. Then the angel Gabriel announced his birth. Wise men sought him. Herod wanted to kill him. John the Baptist presented him to Israel. God anointed him. Satan cruelly tempted him. Then the King came into the Jewish meeting house and announced: "I am here! I have come to set you free and to wash away sins, and liberate those who love and follow me." It is believed that Matthew was the first apostle to write a gospel, possibly as early as 50 AD. He was a wealthy tax collector who profited greatly from his duty of representing Rome. And then one day, the Man from Galilee stood in front of him and said, "Come follow me." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Brian Simmons.

Cannon's popular RealClearPolitics' "Morning Note", On This Date is focused on fascinating - and sometimes unknown - stories behind specific dates in US history: what inspired Abraham Lincoln to grow his famous beard, what Dwight Eisenhower really thought about playing football against the great Jim Thorpe, the legal grounds for the first American divorce, who wrote "Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer" - and who profited from it. Colorful yet authoritative, On This Date debunks some popular myths and celebrates America's forgotten heroes.

    A Narco History: How the United States and Mexico Jointly Created the “Mexican Drug War” , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 460min
    The term Mexican Drug War misleads. It implies that the ongoing bloodbath, which has now killed well over 100,000 people, is an internal Mexican affair. But this diverts attention from the US role in creating and sustaining the carnage. It's not just that Americans buy drugs from and sell weapons to Mexico's murderous cartels. It's that ever since the US prohibited the use and sale of drugs in the early 1900s, it has pressured Mexico into acting as its border enforcer - with increasingly deadly consequences. Mexico was not a helpless victim. Powerful forces within the country profited hugely from supplying Americans with what their government forbade them. But the policies that spawned the drug war have proved disastrous for both countries. Written by two award-winning authors, one American and the other Mexican, A Narco History reviews the interlocking 20th-century histories that produced this 21st-century calamity and proposes how to end it. ungekürzt.

    Wintercity Crossing , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 273min
    When a man awakens from cryogenic sleep on a desert planet, stricken with amnesia and low on supplies, his race to remember becomes as urgent as his struggle to survive. Abandoning his escape pod in search of the ship that brought him here, he encounters androids wandering the sands and is puzzled to find that they too have no memories. But each encounter reveals a fragment of his life in Wintercity, the cold metropolis where he designed mind-altering drugs for Muramato Laboratories, a pharmaceutical company run by his former friend Raymond Barnes. Resentful of how Ray has profited from his research, the man seeks revenge, even as he's pulled into a police investigation of a citywide drug epidemic. When the investigation implicates a young woman he has fallen for, his attempts to protect her unravel a conspiracy involving black markets, prostitution rings, even android theft. Each thread is a clue, not only to Muramato Laboratories' shady dealings, but to the man's desert amnesia. He must make sense of it all, even though the truth might destroy him. ungekürzt.

    House Rivals: A Joe DeMarco Thriller: The DeMarco Series, Book 10 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 476min
    From best-selling author Mike Lawson comes the latest installment in the award-winning Joe DeMarco series. As a fixer for influential congressman John Mahoney in Washington, DC, Joe DeMarco has found himself in plenty of unexpected and dangerous situations. In House Rivals, DeMarco is taken further out of his element than ever before, sent to North Dakota to protect a passionate but naïve 22-year-old blogger who has put herself in harm's way. The young woman is Sarah Johnson, whose grandfather saved Mahoney's life in Vietnam. For the past two years, Sarah has been on a relentless crusade against a billionaire oil tycoon who has profited handsomely from the natural gas boom in the Dakotas and who she believes has been bribing small-time politicians and judges to keep things in his favor. Though she has no hard evidence against the man, Sarah has been assaulted and received death threats for her meddling. DeMarco, given his years of experience bending the rules in DC, suspects that a middleman like himself is pulling strings for the tycoon. But as DeMarco tries to identify his adversaries, the situation turns unexpectedly violent, and DeMarco finds himself in a battle of wits against two ruthless problem solvers who will stop at nothing to win. ungekürzt.

    This digest depicts the rise of Bitcoin as it secures its position as the number one digital currency and as the new "digital" gold standard for the millennial age. Whilst still a young currency, it has been adopted by millions of users around the globe.

This digest captures its rise from when the first pioneer of the currency, Satoshi Nakamoto gave birth to it. It has piqued the interest of seasoned investors such as the Winklevoss brothers to the Argentinian billionaire, Wences Casares, who recognize its potential to change the world. Many have profited massively from the currency, however it has been the downfall for many others, especially those who have used it to trade in the black market. The digest finishes with an optimistic account of Blockchain, the infrastructure that underpins Bitcoin, detailing the potential it has to disrupt corrupt governments and organizations for the better. A fascinating audiobook that leaves you excited about the future. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David L. White.

    None of the Above: The Untold Story of the Atlanta Public Schools Cheating Scandal, Corporate Greed, and the Criminalization of Educators , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 653min
    An insider’s account of the infamous Atlanta Public Schools cheating scandal that scapegoated black employees for problems caused by an education reform movement that is increasingly a proxy for corporate greed.In March of 2013, 35 black educators in Atlanta Public Schools were charged with racketeering and conspiracy - the same charges used to bring down the American mafia - for allegedly changing students’ answers on standardized tests. The youngest of the accused, Shani Robinson had taught for only three years and was a new mother when she was wrongfully convicted and faced up to 20 years in prison.In None of the Above, Robinson and journalist Anna Simonton explore how racist policies and practices cheated generations of black children out of opportunities long before some teachers tampered with tests. Examining the corporate education-reform movement, hyper-policing in black communities, cycles of displacement and gentrification, and widening racial and economic disparities in Atlanta, they reveal how the financially powerful have profited from privatization and the dismantling of public education. Against this backdrop, they cast the story of the cheating scandal in a new light, illuminating a deeply flawed investigation and a circus-like trial spun into a media sensation that defied justice. ungekürzt.
