VHS Lives!: A Schlockumentary, Hörbuch, Digital, 141min

The VHS era was like none other in the history of cinema. This new format rose quickly in the early 70s when there was a blockbuster on every street corner, only to die off with the advent of the DVD in the early 2000s. But VHS is rising from the ashes like a phoenix, being relived and retooled by the most dedicated and rabid fanbase of its kind. VHS Lives! goes deep into the psyche of VHS collectors, showing just why VHS is coming back into the public eye and why VHS is the hottest cult collector craze since the full beard and the boom in vinyl record sales. You may think you're hip, but unless you own cult horror big-box video nasties, with the faint whiff of mold and the smell of old video stores, you are very wrong! Directed and produced by Tony Newton, producer of 60 Seconds to Die. Language: English. Narrator: Phil Anselmo, Lloyd Kaufman, James Balsamo.

The Biology of Desire: Why Addiction Is Not a Disease , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 460min

Through the vivid, true stories of five people who journeyed into and out of addiction, a renowned neuroscientist explains why the "disease model" of addiction is wrong and illuminates the path to recovery. The psychiatric establishment and rehab industry in the Western world have branded addiction a brain disease based on evidence that brains change with drug use. But in The Biology of Desire, cognitive neuroscientist and former addict Marc Lewis makes a convincing case that addiction is not a disease and shows why the disease model has become an obstacle to healing. Lewis reveals addiction as an unintended consequence of the brain doing what it's supposed to do - seek pleasure and relief - in a world that's not cooperating. Brains are designed to restructure themselves with normal learning and development, but this process is accelerated in addiction when highly attractive rewards are pursued repeatedly. Lewis shows why treatment based on the disease model so often fails and how treatment can be retooled to achieve lasting recovery, given the realities of brain plasticity. Combining intimate human stories with clearly rendered scientific explanation, The Biology of Desire is enlightening and optimistic listening for anyone who has wrestled with addiction either personally or professionally. ungekürzt.

An End to al-Qaeda: Destroying Bin Laden's Jihad and Restoring America's Honor , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 698min

Al Qaeda’s 9/11 attack was just a small part of its long-term plan. Osama Bin Laden knew the assault would provoke the U.S. to invade Afghanistan and re-stoke his jihad. Bin Laden has built a large following by perverting the teachings of Islam to justify the mass murder of innocent people. By fighting him with bullets and bombs, we have bolstered Bin Laden’s recruiting efforts abroad, undermined civil liberties and economic security at home, and tarnished America’s reputation internationally.Malcolm Nance has retooled the “War on Terror” to show how we can eliminate Al Qaeda in less than 24 months without a single violent military action, while recreating America’s reputation as a force for good around the world. Nance’s plan includes:Dominating the information battle space by exposing Al Qaeda to the rest of the international Moslem community as the global death cult that they areWaging a war against the fear Al Qaeda has stokedDrastically reducing the number of heavy military operations that use bombs to wipe out the enemy (and cause the death of civilians in the process)Relying more heavily on counterintelligence to root out the terrorist group An End to Al Qaeda is both fierce critique of America’s political, military, and intelligence communities and a revolutionary blueprint for destroying Al Qaeda. ungekürzt.

The Body Builders: Inside the Science of the Engineered Human , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 775min

For millennia humans have tried - and often failed - to master nature and transcend our limits. But this has started to change. The new scientific frontier is the human body: the greatest engineers of our generation have turned their sights inward, and their work is beginning to revolutionize mankind. In The Body Builders, Adam Piore takes us on a fascinating journey into the field of bioengineering - which can be used to reverse engineer, rebuild, and augment human beings - and paints a vivid portrait of the people at its center. Chronicling the ways new technology has retooled our physical expectations and mental processes, Piore visits people who have regrown parts of their fingers and legs in the wake of terrible traumas, tries on a muscle suit that allows him to lift 90 pounds with his fingertips, dips into the race to create "Viagra for the brain", and shadows the doctors trying to give mute patients the ability to communicate telepathically. As science continues to lay bare the mysteries of human performance, it is helping us to see - and exist - above our expectations. The Body Builders will take listeners beyond the headlines and the hype to introduce them to the inner workings and the outer reaches of our bodies and minds and explore how new developments are changing, and will forever change, what is possible for humankind. ungekürzt.
