Blood and Thunder: Nathan Heller, Book 7 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 544min
Presidential candidate - and force of nature - Huey Long, the “Kingfish,” is in fear for his life. After Nathan Heller delivers the former Louisiana governor a bulletproof vest, the Kingfish hires the Chicago private eye to investigate death threats from political rivals. Soon Heller runs head-on into an IRS investigation seeking millions skimmed from state workers for Huey’s “de-duct box”... and into the arms of the ex-governor’s lovely ex-mistress. When the charismatic politician is shot down by a seemingly crazed doctor, Heller gets a new employer - the insurance agency fighting a double-indemnity claim from Long’s widow. Was the Kingfish truly the victim of assassination, or accidentally killed by his own bodyguards? A classic P.I. thriller built on historical fact, Max Allan Collins’ Blood and Thunder showcases Huey Long in all his gaudy glory, while delving deep into the heart of the deadliest swamps of Louisiana’s mob-infested politics. ungekürzt.

The Amos 'n' Andy Show, Collection 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 325min
Freeman Gosden and Charles Correll made their radio debut January 12, 1926, as the comedic, blackface characters Sam 'n' Henry. On March 19, 1928 they introduced Amos 'n' Andy, which went on to become one of the most popular and longest running programs in radio history. During the height of its popularity, almost the entire country listened to the 15-minute, Monday through Friday adventures of Amos 'n' Andy. Department stores open in the evening piped in the broadcasts so shoppers wouldn't miss an episode; movie theaters scheduled their features to end just prior to the start of Amos 'n' Andy so they too could pipe it in. The characters were members of The Mystic Knights of the Sea Lodge, of which George Stevens was "The Kingfish". Amos and Andy ran the Fresh-Air Taxi Company, with the more stable, married Amos doing most of the work while Andy chased girls. One of the best-remembered sequences was the time Andy almost married Madame Queen. In 1943, after 4,091 quarter-hour episodes, it switched to a half-hour weekly comedy. While the five-a-week show often had a quiet, easygoing feeling, the new version was a brassy Hollywood-style production, complete with studio audience, full cast of supporting actors and full orchestra. Many of the half-hour programs were written by Joe Connelly and Bob Mosher, later the writing team for Leave It to Beaver and The Munsters. In the new version, Amos became a minor character to the more dominant Andy and Kingfish duo. 2/2/45 Breach of Promise 2/9/45 Phony Soldier 2/16/45 Insulting Valentine 2/23/45 Jealous of Floyd Wilson 3/2/45 Income Tax Pt. 1 3/9/45 Income Tax Pt. 2 3/16/45 Lecture Bureau 3/23/45 Prentice Clothing Company 3/30/45 French Hat Designers at Easter 4/6/45 Andy Moves in with the Kingfish 4/20/45 Dead Body in the Trunk 4/27/45 Married or Not Married? ungekürzt.

Touchdown for Love , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 149min
Lindsay Rice is a school teacher who moved to Miami for the beach and sun. But a teacher's salary doesn't cover the cost of living. She takes a job at the Kingfish Club, the professional baseball team's exclusive club for fans with lots of money. Good tips and good times, she enjoys working there. Always conscientious, she is aware that the waitresses are not allowed to date the customers. When Samwell Graffton, a man she assumes is a financial advisor of some sort, asks her out, she repeatedly tells him no. Samwell doesn't give up easily, though. There's something about Lindsay that calls to him. Part of that siren call is the fact that she has no idea he's the starting quarterback for the Miami Sharks. She's no groupie, only after his money, and he admires the fact that she works two jobs to make ends meet. Will they find true love? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ayelet Sror.

Vesco from Wall Street to Castro's Cuba: The Rise, Fall, and Exile of the King of White Collar Crime , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 746min
Today's high-flying, high-rolling conglomarateurs and corporate raiders are a tame lot compared to their immediate predecessors. The most notorious of these is Robert Vesco, the Kingfish himself, who in 1973 fled the United States accused of looting $250 million from Investors Overseas Services. Now, in this riveting account, noted author Arthur Herzog tells the astounding story of this high school dropout from Detroit, who parlayed cunning, ambition, a brilliant mind, and above all, other people's gullibility and money into a vast financial empire. Vesco's was a different kind of white collar crime. Indeed, there are many today who think he is not a criminal at all, just a victim of the SEC ("See Everything Crooked"). Working narrowly within the system, Vesco joined together smaller companies to form ever larger ones; then, driving up the price of stocks, he attracted investors by the thousands worldwide. When, at last, the dream fell apart, he got out before being thrown in jail. What followed was a desperate escape and an equally desperate chase by the FBI, CIA, and SEC to the Bahamas, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and finally Havana, Cuba, where Vesco now lives under the protection of Fidel Castro. ungekürzt.
