![The Great Oklahoma Swindle Race, Religion, and Lies in America's Weirdest State [Audiobook]](https://i121.fastpic.org/big/2023/0225/9d/91a486fbf71f5455b7a611e4f4aa699d.jpeg)
The Great Oklahoma Swindle: Race, Religion, and Lies in America's Weirdest State (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BFC6T2W7 | 2023 | 9 hours and 40 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 279 MB
Author: Russell Cobb
Narrator: Lloyd James
Look down as you buzz across America, and Oklahoma looks like another "flyover state." A closer inspection, however, reveals one of the most tragic, fascinating, and unpredictable places in the United States. Over the span of a century, Oklahoma gave birth to movements for an African American homeland, a vibrant Socialist Party, armed rebellions of radical farmers, and an insurrection by a man called Crazy Snake. In the same era, the state saw numerous oil booms, one of which transformed the small town of Tulsa into the "oil capital of the world." Add to the chaos one of the nation's worst episodes of racial violence, a statewide takeover by the Ku Klux Klan, and the rise of a paranoid far-right agenda by a fundamentalist preacher named Billy James Hargis and you have the recipe for America's most paradoxical state.

![The American Judicial System A Very Short Introduction [Audiobook]](https://i121.fastpic.org/big/2023/0225/8d/52a895359fa6a4131fa122f3b341568d.jpeg)
The American Judicial System: A Very Short Introduction (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BC2DBNS1 | 2022 | 3 hours and 38 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 201 MB
Author: Charles L. Zelden
Narrator: Tristan Morris
At some point, everyone living in the US has some type of interaction with the American judicial system. For most, this contact is relatively minor: contesting a traffic ticket, suing or being sued in civil court, being a witness in a civil or criminal trial, or serving on a jury. Others are caught up in the criminal justice system-as defendants, as victims, as witnesses, as jurors, or as relatives of a victim or a defendant. For still others, contact comes via an important policy issue affecting their lives in the hands of judges and justices sitting in judgment in marble temples to the law. Yet whatever the level of contact, the American judicial system affects peoples' lives. What courts and judges do matters.

![Ten Birds That Changed the World [Audiobook]](https://i121.fastpic.org/big/2023/0225/ec/18c474efe430bae38824f63edbdcb8ec.jpeg)
Ten Birds That Changed the World (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BWGDR441 | 2023 | 12 hours and 2 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 284 MB
Author: Stephen Moss
Narrator: Stephen Moss
For the whole of human history, we have lived alongside birds. We have hunted and domesticated them for food; venerated them in our mythologies, religions, and rituals; exploited them for their natural resources; and been inspired by them for our music, art, and poetry. In Ten Birds That Changed the World, naturalist and author Stephen Moss tells the gripping story of this long and intimate relationship through key species from all seven of the world's continents. From Odin's faithful raven companions to Darwin's finches, and from the wild turkey of the Americas to the emperor penguin as potent symbol of the climate crisis, this is a fascinating, eye-opening, and endlessly engaging work of natural history.

Author: Travis Langley
Narrator: Elise Arsenault, Julienne Irons
Monsters of the Upside Down, beware! Travis Langley returns with a group of expert contributors to explore these and other questions to shine a light on true human nature through the Netflix series and cultural phenomenon Stranger Things. When do feelings of grief, guilt, depression, fear, and isolation tear us down, and how do we transform them into hope, inspiration, forgiveness, acceptance, and motivation to do what's right? Growing up is hard enough without metaphors for the dangers that lurk in life's shadows springing to life in the form of monsters, villains, conspiracies, and enemy soldiers. Stranger Things Psychology: Life Upside Down descends into the dark side of adolescence to find the light on the other side of the ultimate coming-of-age story.

Author: Neven Iliev
Narrator: Jeff Hays, Annie Ellicott, Dorrie Sacks, Laurie Winkel, Justin James, Will Watt, Gary Furlong, Soundbooth Theater, full cast
The world waits for no one. While Boxxy is off chasing shinies and delving dungeons abroad, Azurvale's shadows churn, fester, and ferment into a potent cocktail of trouble. Secret organizations maneuver behind the scenes, patiently advancing their nefarious Descriptions. Government agencies lay in wait, ready to pounce at the first sign of trouble. Powerful adventurers gear up and train for the next challenge, uncertain as to what form it might take. In the midst of all this, a humble scholar arrives from a distant land wholly ignorant to the mountain-sized powder keg waiting for him. Explosives primed and the fuse set, the only thing missing is a spark to set things off, and who better to serve that role than a fiery redhead making her triumphant return?

Sink: A Memoir (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0B831C47L | 2023 | 6 hours and 18 minutes | MP3@64 kbps | 174 MB
Author: Joseph Earl Thomas
Narrator: Joseph Earl Thomas
"A brilliant and brilliantly different" (Kiese Laymon), wrenching and redemptive coming-of-age memoir about the difficulty of growing up in a hazardous home and the glory of finding salvation in geek culture. Stranded within an ever-shifting family's desperate but volatile attempts to love, saddled with a mercurial mother mired in crack addiction, and demeaned daily for his perceived weakness, Joseph Earl Thomas grew up feeling he was under constant threat. Roaches fell from the ceiling, colonizing bowls of noodles and cereal boxes. Fists and palms pounded down at school and at home, leaving welts that ached long after they disappeared. An inescapable hunger gnawed at his frequently empty stomach, and requests for food were often met with indifference if not open hostility. Deemed too unlike the other boys to ever gain the acceptance he so desperately desired, he began to escape into fantasy and virtual worlds, wells of happiness in a childhood assailed on all sides.

Author: Ian Gardner
Narrator: Ian Porter
A hard-hitting history of the U.S. airborne unit who made a name for themselves in the unforgiving jungles of South Vietnam. This is the dramatic history of a band of brothers who served together in Vietnam and who against the odds lived up to the reputation of their World War II forefathers. Brigadier General Salve Matheson's idea was to create an 800-strong battalion of airborne volunteers in the same legendary "Currahee" spirit that had defined the volunteers of 1942. The man he chose to lead them was John Geraci, who would mold this young brotherhood into a highly cohesive and motivated force. In December 1967, the battalion was sent into the Central Highlands of Lam Dong Province.
