    The Joy of Hate: How to Triumph over Whiners in the Age of Phony Outrage , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 430min
    From the irreverent star of Fox News’s Red Eye and The Five, hilarious observations on the manufactured outrage of an oversensitive, wussified culture. Greg Gutfeld hates artificial tolerance. At the root of every single major political conflict is the annoying coddling Americans must endure of these harebrained liberal hypocrisies. In fact, most of the time liberals use the mantle of tolerance as a guise for their pathetic intolerance. And what we really need is smart intolerance, or as Gutfeld reminds us, what we used to call common sense. The Joy of Hate tackles this conundrum head on- - replacing the idiocy of open-mindness with a shrewd judgmentalism that rejects stupid ideas, notions, and people. With countless examples grabbed from the headlines, Gutfeld provides readers with the enormous tally of what pisses us all off. For example:The double standard: You can make fun of Christians, but God forbid Muslims. It's okay to call a woman any name imaginable, as long as she's a Republican. And no problem if you're a bigot, as long as you're politically correct about it.The demonizing of the Tea Party and romanticizing of the Occupy Wall Streeters.The media who are always offended (see MSNBC lineup)How critics of Obamacare or illegal immigration are somehow immediately labeled racists.The endless debate over the Ground Zero Mosque (which Gutfeld planned to open a Muslim gay bar next to).As well as pretentious music criticism, slow-moving ceiling fans, and snotty restaurant hostesses.Funny and sarcastic to the point of being mean (but in a nice way), The Joy of Hate points out the true jerks in this society and tells them all off. ungekürzt.

    Mission to Paris (eBook, ePUB)
    The author of TV Book Club's SPIES OF THE BALKANS returns with a hugely evocative thriller set in wartime Paris.Frederic Stahl, born of Viennese intelligentsia, ran away to sea at the age of seventeen. Embarking in America, his matinee idol looks and Old-World charm took him to Hollywood, and a life of movies and women. But by autumn 1939, the unease in Europe has spread even to Stahl's glamorous enclave. War has been declared, and though bullets and bombs are yet to fly, his decision to shoot a film in Paris seems ill-advised. The Parisians know this is their last spring and a time to be passionate. Soon after his arrival, Stahl is drawn into a clandestine world of foreign correspondents, exiled Spanish republicans and, of course, spies of every sort. For as a celebrity from neutral America - who can travel across the continent freely - Stahl could be very useful indeed ... Returning to the Brasserie Heiniger, and some of the colourful cast from THE WORLD AT NIGHT, this is a headily atmospheric portrait of a continent in the grip of The Phony War.

    Climategate: A Veteran Meteorologist Exposes the Global Warming Scam , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 549min
    Those now notorious intercepted emails documenting leading scientists conspiring to squelch global-warming skeptics and falsifying data proved exactly what Brian Sussman has been saying for years. Climategate is intended for anyone who has ever expressed skepticism about the clamorous environmentalist claims that the Earth is in peril because of mankind's appetite for carbon-based fuels. By tracing the origins of the current climate scare, Sussman guides the listener from the diabolical minds of Marx and Engels in the 1800s to the global governance machinations of the United Nations today. Climategate is a call to action, warning Americans that their future is being undermined by a phony pseudoscience aimed at altering and dominating every aspect of life in the United States and the world. ungekürzt.

    Sleeping Big in Smallville: A Telluride Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 592min
    In the 1970s, Telluride, Colorado is an extreme place, populated by extreme people made crazier by each other, the last bastion of the old West where living is fun, sex is easy, and death is nigh. A remote village with a backdrop of snowy peaks is the stage. It's inhabited by escapees from reality, the remoteness making for easy sex, cheap politicians, hippies, coke dealers, and a sprinkling of criminals hiding out in the mountains where the law is "flexible". The Bubba Ram, a phony guru, barely survives lost gambles, wasted love, and life and death clashes with civilization by rebels who pursue money and sex, and watch the town metamorphose into a free-thinking haven for the super-rich. ungekürzt.

    The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming (and Environmentalism) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 691min
    The big media have spoken on the question of global warming, and the debate is officially over. "Be afraid, be very afraid", warns Time magazine. But have Al Gore and his environmentalist allies really proven their case? Not even close, says Christopher C. Horner. In The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming (and Environmentalism), he exposes the shoddy science, plain dishonesty, and hidden political agenda behind the biggest phony environmental scare since, well, since green predictions of catastrophic global cooling in the 1970s. The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming (and Environmentalism) provides a provocative, entertaining, and well documented exposé of some of the most shamelessly politicized pseudoscience we are likely to see in our relatively cool lifetimes. ungekürzt.

    To Catch a Thief , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 466min
    To Catch a Thief is David Dodge's most famous novel, and rightly so. Alfred Hitchcock firmly cinched its place in the annals of crime fiction by adapting it into an Academy Award winning film starring Cary Grant and Grace Kelly. The story centers on John Robie, American expatriate and skilled gymnast, who once-upon-a-time was Le Chat, the famous and elusive cat burglar who worked the South of France. The legend of Le Chat grew with each crime. Following the war, Robie retires to a quiet life in France and vows to leave his past behind. His retirement is shattered when a copy-cat burglar commits a string of robberies that puts the police on Le Chat's trail again. Robie must catch the phony Le Chat before the police catch him. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jeff Loeb. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/015100/bk_adbl_015100_sample.mp3.
