Car Talk, Geographically Undesirable, February 23, 2013, Hörbuch, Digital, 53min

This week on Car Talk, Kate and Aaron's long-distance relationship has come to a road block. Aaron is afraid to drive, so Kate's doing all the traveling and it's become a bit of a pain in the butt – figuratively, and literally. Can Tom and Ray help her get Aaron behind the wheel, or is this relationship headed for the crusher? Elsewhere, Erin inherited her Grandpa's Impala, and among its dozen or so problems, the most amusing is that when she turns on her high-beams, the directional signals don't work; Tony's sleeping on the sofa after two unsuccessful repairs to his wife's Subaru, and Strike Three might send him and his sleeping bag to the garage; and, Steve is wondering why his trusty Ford Ranger is suddenly causing boat payments, three at a time. Also, on Stump the Chumps, did Tom and Ray help Sam quiet his Accord long enough to sell it? All this and lots more, this week on Car Talk. [Broadcast Date: February 23, 2013] Language: English.

Everything on the Line , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 418min

The year is 2043. God and Satan are dining at a cute little Italian trattoria in Purgatory, when Satan challenges God to a wager: At stake is whether Good or Evil will prevail in the world. Both antagonists will choose someone on earth to compete in a winner-take-all athletic competition. If God’s choice wins, Good will prevail forever. If Satan’s choice wins…. They select tennis as the ideal crucible in which to have this ultimate mano-a-mano sporting test of physical skills and inner strength. Throughout the novel (which takes place in Florence, Venice, Rome, New York, Florida, Ohio, Paris, Barcelona, Melbourne, and Wimbledon), Italian wunderkind Ugo Bellezza (God's choice) and American prodigy Jack Spade (Satan's) battle both opponents and their own personal demons - and become the two greatest players in the history of tennis - until, in the final chapter, they clash in a titanic battle at Wimbledon, a cataclysmic, touching, and surprising denouement in which (with everything on the line, literally and figuratively) the eternal battle between Good and Evil is ultimately decided. ungekürzt.

If the Shoe Fits , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 696min

Jana Fleischer loves her life - wonderful family, best sister in the world, awesome soon to be sister-in-law, fabulous job, and a never-ending stream of men to chew through and spit out. So what if everyone says she’s too picky and she’s never had a real relationship? When a chance meeting with Brooke Donnelly leaves Jana literally and figuratively off-balance, it doesn’t take long for her initial annoyance to turn into the first sparks of friendship. Jana always thought she was happy with her life, but the more time she spends with Brooke, the more she realizes something is missing. And maybe not just in the friendship department. But how do you make that leap when you’ve never even considered kissing a woman, and have spent your whole life avoiding romantic commitments? Being brave, taking the first step, and admitting she wants to try to make things work with Brooke is only the beginning. Whether it’s the beginning of a disaster - or everything Jana hadn’t realized she wanted - depends on if Brooke can also be brave enough.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kelsey Navarro.

Chinese Lemonade: A Minnesotan's View of Southern China , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 400min

It's 9:45 AM on Sunday morning and Starbucks is completely empty. Over 1.5 million people live in the city of Zhuhai, China, yet I sit alone at a large wooden table, sipping a latte, and writing in my journal. Culture shock hits you in ways you never expect. I guess that's why it's so...well, shocking."The coffee shops don't open until 8:00 AM? How do these people wake up in the morning? How do you say 'put away your stinky feet' in Mandarin? Wait, I ordered frog? Those are the characters for 'field chicken."Living in another country is a fascinating experience. Southern China is absolutely beautiful and Chinese food is figuratively to die for. A native of Minnesota, the transition to mega-city-China was challenging, but it was a challenge which allowed me to grow. It opened my eyes with new experiences, new sights, new sounds, and my hope is that I'm able to share some of that with you in this audiobook. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Philip Wels.

Disrupt-Her: A Manifesto for the Modern Woman , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 293min

Miki Agrawal has faced patriarchal pushback, fought girl-on-girl hate, ridden the roller coaster of building businesses as a female CEO, and even overcome an attempt to burn her for witchcraft (figuratively). In order to navigate the complicated - at times maddening - struggles of contemporary femininity, we need an unabashed manifesto for the modern woman that inspires us to move past outrage and take positive steps on the personal, professional, and societal levels. This manifesto galvanizes us to action in 13 major areas of our lives with as much firepower as possible. These are the credos we live by, the advice we give to friends, the tenets we instill in our companies and peers on a daily basis. Stories of badass female movers and shakers are shared in this audiobook, too, to give you an extra jolt of "I've got this". It's a whole-body "f--k yes" to your work, your love, your relationships, and your mission - while doing it all authentically, unapologetically, and with full integrity. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Dronish: A Walker Saga, Book 6 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 505min

With the convergence date looming closer, Abigail's in the final countdown to imprison the Seventine. It is do-or-die time, and she is determined that the Seventine will be the ones who die, figuratively speaking. Her current priorities: gather the Dronish half-Walker female and reform her melding bond with Brace. Dronish is a world more alien than any other Abigail has ventured through, which is really saying something. But it’s also a dying land. The inhabitants are running out of energy and there’s little hope for their survival. Of course, that makes it very hard to convince Sapha - the half-Walker - that she should help save the star system. If her world is doomed already, she doesn’t care much about the rest. Okay, task one is going to be tougher than Abigail anticipated, but at least reforming the bond should be easy... right? Of course, that was before she met with the lalunas. Now she knows that both items on her to-do list have jumped right into the realm of impossible. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Eva Kaminsky.
