    Borrowed Theme: A Bundle of Thoughts That Were Never Ours , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 131min
    Watch any drug commercial, and watch as the actors and actresses distract your attention toward the end of the commercial as a voice elegantly lists the horrifying side effects. This can sum up the borrowed theme - a hidden world of lies with carefully placed distractions to divide your attention. In this book, we focus not on the pretty faces you're supposed to look at. We focus on that tiny text at the bottom of the screen. We lift the hood on the car and check the engine while the salesman is trying desperately to get you fixated on the shiny paint. When you are able to spot a lie, a distraction, or an embellishment of the truth, you are on your way to freethinking. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: June Wayne, Rob Grannis, Jason Clarke.

    Car Talk, No Respect at All, January 9, 2010, Hörbuch, Digital, 53min
    This week, Car Talk kicks off with a few choice one-liners from the late Rodney Dangerfield. Then it's off to Vermont where native Burlington resident Sam is in for a load of grief (and a large boat payment) for letting his Civic run out of coolant. Meanwhile, down in Connecticut, Wendy's trips to the dog park have become a tad embarrassing, thanks to the "kick the oil can" sound coming from her Yukon after she shuts it off. Also, married dad Andy looks for help convincing his wife to let him buy a car that could kill him; a cardinal becomes overly fixated on its reflection in a Saturn side-view mirror; and is there such a thing as overly fastidious ice scraping? All this, plus a new puzzler from the Sun-Dried Tomato series, and more this week on Car Talk. [Broadcast Date: January 9, 2010] Language: English.
