    Arguably
    A Sunday Times Bestseller Christopher Hitchens (1949-2011) was a matchless writer, debater and humanist. Throughout his life he shone the light of reason and truth into the eyes of charlatans and hucksters, exposing falsehood and decrying hypocrisy wherever he found it. With his passing, the world lost a great soul, the written word one of its finest advocates and those who stand for freedom everywhere have lost one of their clearest voices. Arguably collects Hitchens' writing on politics, literature and religion when he was at the zenith of his career; it is the indispensible companion to the finest English essayist since Orwell.

    Tales of the Radio Traveler , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 332min
    Russell Johnson explores the wavelengths of the world as he blends radio lore, science, and wry, sometimes irreverent humor in his adventures in 18 countries. As a child growing up in Midwestern America, radio was his window on the world and the universe. Hearing the faint radio beeps of Sputnik passing overhead, a ham radio operator in Borneo, the million watt voices of preachers and hucksters, and Wolfman Jack howling at America from across the Mexican border demonstrated that there was a world far beyond his neighborhood - even the grip of gravity - a world he wanted to see for himself.After a career in radio and TV, he traveled to some 60 countries gathering stories, sounds, and pictures, many of which became radio features, videos.The audio version of Tales of the Radio Traveler goes beyond the book, with actual sounds, music, interviews, and excerpts from radio features. Hear voices and hucksters from old time radio. Ride an elephant into the jungles of Nepal in search of a chicken. Experience a coup d'etat in the islands of Fiji as islanders sing Christmas carols. Attend a royal wedding in Bali. Listen to Arthur C. Clarke talk about his adopted Sri Lanka and speculate about virtual reality. Hear two old guys speaking in Boontling, an almost-lost America folk language. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Russell Johnson.

    Buying Foreclosed Properties: Secrets to Success & Pitfalls of R.E.O.S , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 147min
    E.H. Sinclair does the unexpected in this book: he points out the pitfalls to avoid in R.E.O.

Sinclair shows how to work smart instead of working hard: the chapters include invaluable tips on how to beat the odds against succeeding in purchasing bank owned foreclosures.

In the meantime, the attendee is made to believe how much anticipated profit has been made, strictly supported by the puffed-up estimate of a quick sale at the expected high sales price. Past attendees or actors then appear in a commercial talking about how easy it was and how much they made on their first deal.

    Fantasyland , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1175min
    Random House presents the audiobook edition of Fantasyland, written and read by Kurt Anderson. You’re entitled to your own opinion but not your own facts. Fantasy is the USA’s primary product. From the Pilgrim fathers onward, America has been a place where renegades and freaks came in search of freedom to create their own realities with little objectively regulated truth standing in their way. The freedom to invent and believe whatever the hell you like is, in some ways, an unwritten constitutional right. But this do-your-own-thing freedom also is the driving credo of America's current transformation, where the difference between opinion and fact is rapidly crumbling.  So how did is a journey that connects the dots between crazed franchises of true believers - a rich freak show tapestry from Mormons to Flat Earthers and satanic panic, new age quacks to anti-vaxxers, conspiracy theorists of every stripe, creationists to climate change deniers, UFO-obsessives to gun-toting libertarians, showmen hucksters from P T Barnum to Trump himself, all topped off with a dangerous dose of anti-government paranoia and pseudoscience. Along the way, on and make-believe, from Salem to Scientology. Fantasyland is a journey that connects the dots between crazed franchises of true believers - a rich freak show tapestry from Mormons to Flat Earthers and satanic panic, new age quacks to anti-vaxxers, conspiracy theorists of every stripe, creationists to climate change deniers, UFO obsessives to gun-toting libertarians, showmen hucksters from PT Barnum to Trump himself, all topped off with a dangerous dose of antigovernment paranoia and pseudoscience. Along the way, New York Times best-selling author Kurt Andersen has created a unique and raucous history of America and a new paradigm for understanding our postfactual world. ungekürzt.

    The Complete Western Stories of Elmore Leonard , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 408min
    Trust was rare and precious in the wide-open towns that sprung up like weeds on America's frontier - with hustlers and hucksters arriving in droves by horse, coach, wagon, and rail, and gunmen working both sides of the law, all too eager to end a man's life with a well-placed bullet. The New York Times best-selling grand master of suspense deftly displays the other side of his genius, with seven classic Western tales of destiny and fatal decision...and trust as essential to survival as it is hard-earned. ungekürzt.
