Hardcore Self Help: F**k Depression , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 244min
Hardcore Self Help: F**k Depression is the follow-up to the best-selling F**K Anxiety. In this book I take the information, tips, and insights that I have gained as a psychologist and translate them into language that doesn't suck. This is the self-help book for people who don't usually like self-help books. In Hardcore Self Help: F**K Depression, I talk to you like a friend. That means I speak directly to you, without psychobabble. Instead I tell you why your brain is such a troll. I explain why you have literally no energy or motivation. I tell you why people are so terrible at offering help. Best of all, I tell you how to take realistic steps toward solving these and many other issues caused by depression. ungekürzt.

The Same Lie Twice , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 195min
A copywriter’s wife has vanished, and only John Easy is slick enough to save her. Jim Benning makes $25,000 a year writing drivel for the admen at the Arbogast & Joseph Agency, and his wife thinks he’s worth a whole lot less. Joanna is a model: nervous, beautiful, and prone to meltdowns. In a last-ditch attempt to save their marriage, she agrees to a few sessions with a psychiatrist in San Ignacio - a quack whose psychobabble is more sinister than it appears. But when Joanna disappears, Jim’s only hope is John Easy, the hippest P.I. in Hollywood. Jim gives John a matchbook found in his wife’s purse for a club called Maybe - a swinger’s hideout where morality is not in style - and John plunges into the seedy side of sunny San Ignacio, where the copywriter’s wife led an entirely different sort of existence. To save Joanna from her shadow self, John Easy will have to swing harder than ever before. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ray Chase.

Waking Up Tomorrow: Recovery from Anxiety and Depression , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 200min
Waking Up Tomorrow chronicles my struggles against anxiety disorder and depression. It's a no-holds-barred account of how I have coped with anxiety-related issues over the years and the methods I adopt to continue to move forward, day after day. I share my analysis on what I perceive to help listeners progress more positively with their lives and what I also found does not help and can be counterproductive.I let the listener into my journey, hopefully drawing parallels with their own, offering logical solutions in a world of psychobabble and overload when trying to find some peace from this often crippling disorder.I would describe this audiobook as easy-to-listenand understand moving away from the often wordy narrative of the more traditional self-help books that are penned by psychologists and the like. My ultimate aim for this work is for the listener to understand that there is a very simple solution hiding in a very complex issue, and it’s the peruser's job to - with my help - uncover this, own it, and make it their own. ungekürzt.

Life from the Top of the Mind , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 327min
Everyone has heard the statistics...75 percent of people today describe their lives as “very stressful” and with the pace of change and globalization, almost everyone predicts it’s just going to get worse. Plus, even though everyone is experiencing more stress than ever, they are also sick of typical “stress management” and people giving them simplistic answers to life's complex problems.In his fourth book, psychologist Dr. Bill Crawford addresses this problem by first explaining why this level of stress and frustration is so prevalent, and then why so much of the advice about how to deal with these problems will never work. Then, using a conversational style that is free of psychobabble, this groundbreaking new book gives its listeners a concrete, comprehensive system for shifting to the upper 80 percent of their brain (the “top of the mind”) and accessing the clarity, confidence, and creativity necessary for success in today’s world. Bottom line: If you want to become more influential in your life and the lives of others, this book is for you!" ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bill Crawford, PhD.

Everything You Pretend to Know and Are Afraid Someone Will Ask, Hörbuch, Digital, 226min

Perfect as a reference tool, for casual listening, or simply for sharing impressive, newfound knowledge with family and friends, this audio handbook will endow you with genuine cultural literacy in just a few hours of fun-filled listening.

Killing for Sport: Inside the Minds of Serial Killers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 251min
Killing for Sport is the most valuable insight into the minds of serial killers you'll ever listen to. While other profilers tend to conceal the clear facts behind complex technical language and psychobabble, Pat Brown actually tells it like it is. Killing for Sport will intrigue you with its honest portrayal of the predator-next-door: how he hunts for his victims, why he likes to torture them, where he tends to stash their bodies, and more. The more our society is informed about these predators and what really goes on in their minds, the more equipped we will be to protect ourselves from them. With the same dark wit that gets people who work with the criminally insane through their workday, Brown speaks frankly about the monsters among us who kill for sport. Pat Brown became an Investigative Criminal Profiler after her local police proved ineffective in investigating a murder suspect to which she unknowingly rented a room. As CEO of The Sexual Homicide Exchange (SHE), Brown has dedicated her time to helping the victims of serial killers and their families. She lives in Maryland and Minnesota. ungekürzt.

The Broom of the System: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 990min
The "dazzling, exhilarating" (San Francisco Chronicle) debut novel from the best-selling author of Infinite Jest, available for the first time as an audiobook. At the center of The Broom of the System is the betwitching (and also bewildered) heroine, Lenore Stonecipher Beadsman. The year is 1990 and the place is a slightly altered Cleveland, Ohio, which sits on the edge of a suburban wasteland-the Great Ohio Desert. Lenore works as a switchboard attendant at a publishing firm, and in addition to her mind-numbing job, she has a few other problems. Her great-grandmother, a one-time student of Wittgenstein, has disappeared with twenty-five other inmates of the Shaker Heights Nursing Home. Her beau (and boss), editor-in-chief Rick Vigorous, is insanely jealous. And her cockatiel, Vlad the Impaler, has suddenly started spouting a mixture of psychobabble, Auden, and the King James Bible, which may propel him to stardom on a Christian fundamentalist television program. Fiercely intelligent and entertaining, this debut novel from one of the most innovative writers of our generation explores the paradoxes of language, storytelling, and reality. ungekürzt.

Rumble , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 548min
Can an atheist be saved? The New York Times best-selling author of Crank and Tricks explores the highly charged landscapes of faith and forgiveness with brilliant sensitivity and emotional resonance. "There is no God, no benevolent ruler of the earth, no omnipotent grand poobah of countless universes. Because if there was... my little brother would still be fishing or playing basketball instead of fertilizing cemetery vegetation." Matthew Turner doesn't have faith in anything. Not in family - his is a shambles after his younger brother was bullied into suicide. Not in so-called friends who turn their backs when things get tough. Not in some all-powerful creator who lets too much bad stuff happen. And certainly not in some "It Gets Better" psychobabble. No matter what his girlfriend Hayden says about faith and forgiveness, there's no way Matt's letting go of blame. He's decided to "live large and go out with a huge bang," and whatever happens happens. But when a horrific event plunges Matt into a dark, silent place, he hears a rumble... a rumble that wakes him up, calling everything he's ever disbelieved into question. ungekürzt.
