Cubbyhole Kid , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 140min
Cubbyhole Kid tells a harrowing survival story of a young four-year-old boy as he recounts his days being raised in a strict Irish Catholic family. He expresses his gratitude and love for two incredible women who saved his life: his protective 14-year-old sister, who was also his godmother, and his beautiful, religious mother. Together, along with his other siblings, his brothers, they painfully navigated their abusive, alcoholic, ex-military father through the mid-1960s Los Angeles. While dealing with a severe childhood anxiety, suicidal depression, and physical and learning disabilities at such a young age, the boy traveled inside the cubbyhole, a small, two-by-four middle section of the family station wagon, unexpectedly experiencing his World War II veteran father’s life-threatening road rage. With the fear of death always looming, the boy witnessed his father’s all too familiar, unpredictable violence, explosive temperament, and heavy drinking during our country’s escalating involvement in the Vietnam War, the hippie cultural movement, riots in the streets, and arguably, the heyday of rock-and-roll music. The story describes the boy’s fond memories and relationship with his older sister, who bravely kept him shielded from their father’s harsh punishments and became like a second mother to him. He experienced the beauty of life outside the home during his sister’s “coming of age” teenage years, along with her friends who were part of the youth cultural shift that seemingly took place overnight. The nightly demonstration of violence and abuse coupled with his father’s unwillingness to accept the generational changes taking place with the society’s youth and his mother’s unexpected illness would seem too much and test the young boy’s faith. ungekürzt.

Eine Hochzeit, das Wiedersehen von vier Geschwistern und das Aufeinanderprallen verschiedener Welten: hier Simon, der Gutmütige, der von seiner freudlosen Frau Carine begleitet wird. Da ist Garance, die Extravagante und Schlagfertige, und ihre Schwester Lola, die keine Auseinandersetzung mit ihrer ach so korrekten Schwägerin scheuen. Doch einer fehlt: der Bruder Vincent. Während in der Kirche die Hochzeit in vollem Gange ist, stehlen sich Simon, Garange und Lola davon und besuchen Vincent.

Krankenzimmer Nr. 6, Hörbuch, Digital, 140min
Der Arzt Andrej Jefimytsch wollte eigentlich Priester werden, aber aufgrund der väterlichen Fürsorge hat es ihn in die Medizin verschlagen. Als Chefarzt eines Gefängnisses mit eigener Abteilung für Geisteskranke trägt er die Hauptverantwortung, allerdings verliert er im Laufe der Jahre das Interesse an den Kranken und der monotonen Praxis. Er lässt lieber seine Gehilfen die lästigen Untersuchungen und Operationen durchführen und konzentriert sich auf seine Leidenschaften - Lesen und Bier trinken. Im intellektuellen Höhenflug erkundet Andrej Jefimytsch die philosophischen und wissenschaftlichen Essenzen seiner Zeit und findet in einem Insassen der Irrenanstalt einen höchst interessanten Gesprächspartner, dessen Verstand seinen Theorien und Erkenntnissen folgen kann - ja diese sogar kritisch hinterfragt. Ist dieser Geisteskranke womöglich gesund oder lässt sich dessen Geisteskrankheit erklären oder sind die Gesunden die Geisteskranken? Andrej Jefimytsch ist der Wahrheit ganz nahe... deutsch.

Dragnet Vol. 3, Hörbuch, Digital, 140min
From 1949 to 1957, Dragnet pioneered new levels of realism on radio. Every crime investigated by Sergeant Joe Friday was taken from the actual case files of the Los Angeles Police Department, with only "the names changed to protect the innocent". This collection features five episodes of the classic series:Big Badge (5/4/1950)Big Pug (5/18/1950)Big Key (5/25/1950)Big Grandma (10/19/1950)Big Meet (10/26/1950)These broadcasts feature multi-layered sound effects; the actors used accurate police lingo, abbreviations, and penal codes; and the show didn't shy away from stories about heinous crimes or stories that had unhappy endings. Created and produced by Jack Webb, Dragnet was much more than "just the facts". Language: English. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/rt/radi/000542/rt_radi_000542_sample.mp3.

Little Labours , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 140min
A droll and dazzling compendium of observations, stories, lists and brief essays about babies. One August day a baby was born, or, as it seemed to Rivka Galchen, a puma moved into her apartment. Her arrival felt supernatural; she seemed to come from another world. And suddenly the world seemed ludicrously, suspiciously, adverbially sodden with meaning. But Galchen didn't want to write about the puma. She had never been interested in babies or in mothers before. Now everything seemed directly related to them, and she specifically wanted to write about other things because it might mean she was really, covertly, learning something about babies or about being near babies. The result is Little Labours, a slanted, enchanted miscellany. Galchen writes about babies in art (with wrongly shaped heads) and babies in literature (rarer than dogs or abortions, often monstrous); about the effort of taking a passport photo for a baby not yet able to hold up her head and the frightening prevalence of orange as today's chic colour for baby gifts; about Frankenstein as a sort of baby and a baby as a sort of Godzilla. In doing so she opens up an odd and tender world of wonder. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Laurel Lefkow. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/hcuk/002865/bk_hcuk_002865_sample.mp3.
