    Car Talk Fact: 98 percent of misinformation in the world comes from fathers (the other 2 percent comes from us). Throughout history, when a child asks a father a question, the father feels he must give the child an answer. Even if he doesn't know what the answer is (which, as we said, is the case 98 percent of the time).We've collected our favorite calls over the years about fatherly advice and put them together in this hilarious collection. You'll be charmed, appalled, and, most of all, astounded at how often our fathers are wrong. But mostly you'll be reminded of why we love them anyway.Warning: Car Talk is not liable for repressed family memories that may arise as a result of playing this audio. Language: English.

    "They say the past always comes back to haunt us. I don't know who 'they' are, but I'd prefer a good haunting over the stuff that blindsides me every time I walk out the door." - Arianna Jackson Just when life doesn't seem like it couldn't get any more hectic, AJ receives a call that embroils her in the search for the perpetrator who ambushed a local politician-one which seemingly points to her evasive, jack-in-the-box of a biological father. Upon confronting him, it becomes apparent that he's popped back up for more than a fatherly visit-he wants something that only AJ possesses. But can she trust him if it means destroying lives in the process? When delving into his mysterious past, AJ quickly finds that there are more questions than answers, many of which would be best served remaining buried. Before it's over, she must rely on her intuition and conscience, because playing her hand could be deadly, as the cards will expose more than the secrets and lies of the players at the table. It will impact the lives of innocent people. Forever.

    A Love for Solomon is inspired by the biblical story of a farmer's daughter who captivated two kings of Israel: David and his son, Solomon. Thousands of years ago, Abishag, a farmer's daughter, left her home and family in Sulam to become a handmaiden to King David. Even while she served the wise and fatherly king, she yearned for romance and marriage. Then, when King David died, instead of remaining in the royal harem, Abishag returned to Sulam - but she soon realized it was a mistake to go home. In despair, she knew of only one safe place to flee: the king's palace. Back at the palace, she unexpectedly found favor in Solomon's eyes - he was a man she had long admired and desired. But another powerful man wanted her, too. And both men wanted the throne. When their passions rose, and with the eyes of Israel upon them, could a common country girl even hope to match wits and words of love with a learned, poetic king? ungekürzt. Language: English.

Meanwhile, his much younger tennis partner has enrolled at Cal Berkeley, enmeshed himself in pacifist politics and resumed his role as Joe's lover. When a playmate from Wheelus, a one-time fighter pilot now flying for TWA, shows up at Joe's house in Merced, the three men must navigate the joys and difficulties inherent in creating their own sort of ''welcome home.''

    The Challenge Before You Is a Bold One: To Accept the Wild, Daring Adventure of Becoming a Man We want to be self-sufficient. Find our own direction as we pursue our dreams. Know it all and never ask for help. Isn't this how most guys approach manhood? On our own, pretending we are doing better than we really are? But sooner or later the thrill of independence gets lost in the fog of isolation. It's time to take the pressure off. We were never meant to figure life out on our own. This book was born out of a series of weekly phone calls between Sam Eldredge, a young writer in his twenties, and his dad, bestselling author John Eldredge. Join the conversation as a father and son talk about pursuing beauty, dealing with money, getting married, chasing dreams, knowing something real with God, and how to find a life you can call your own. Killing Lions is more than fatherly advice. It is an invitation into a journey: either to be the son who receives fathering or the father who learns what must be spoken. Most important, these conversations speak to a searching generation: "You are not alone. Its not all up to you. You are going to find your way." ungekürzt. Language: English.
