The Spectre Spiders , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 24min
William James Wintle (1861-1920) was a Welsh writer who distinguished himself as a versatile writer before becoming an Oblate for the Abbey of Caldey Island in Pembrokeshire, Wales.

He consults an eye doctor, who finds nothing wrong with his vision and prescribes rest and relaxation.

Seasons of Faith: Religious and Spiritual Poetry , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 81min
Poetry, on the other hand, offers us deep riches of meaning with a remarkable economy of words. This was an art of wisdom often chosen by the mystics of the West and popularized by the hymnodists. In this sense, poetry - and particularly Christian poetry - continues to offer a counterpoint to the dry, wordy explanation that often stupefies the human spirit more than it edifies. From these lines, poet and author Peter Menkin, Obl Cam OSB, takes listeners on a contemplative and inspiring journey and adventure through his collection of meaningful poems, Seasons of Faith: Religious and Spiritual Poetry. In this collection of contemplative poems, listeners will uncover a very old challenge to people in the 21st century - a challenge not unlike that penned by some favorite Anglican poets across the ages. Through these moving and distinctive original poems, some from contemporary work that also depict the poet's colorful character, they will find a blend of humor, personality, poignancy, spiritual reflection, and popular culture. Seasons of Faith: Religious and Spiritual Poetry captures listeners' senses and give them a reflective experience - allowing them to boost their spirit and inspire them to live a meaningful life. Spiritually inspiring, filled with insights, and life altering, Seasons of Faith: Religious and Spiritual Poetry is engaging poetry that everyone will surely enjoy. Peter Menkin, Obl Cam OSB has been writing poetry on a regular basis since 1999. His work is primarily religious and spiritual and originally sprung from the inspiration brought to him by contemplative prayer and regular Church worship. He was received as an Oblate of Immaculate Heart Hermitage, (New Camaldoli), Big Sur in 1995, and also studied theology when attending The School for Deacons, now located in Berkeley, California. He is a Benedictine. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: William Bailey III. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/008780/bk_acx0_008780_sample.mp3.

Hollow Earth: A History of Strange Tales, Bizarre Beliefs, and Conspiracy Theories about the Earth's Core , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 79min
The world is filled with mysteries, and even in the modern age, much of the planet remains unexplored. The depths of the oceans and the intricate and extensive cave systems that honeycomb some parts of the Earth are still largely unknown. Thus, it should come as no surprise that when it comes to this terra incognita, people have projected all sorts of ideas. Tales of sunken cities or lost civilizations are just some of the fanciful theories, and those could even be considered tame in comparison to the idea that Earth is hollow and there's a whole other world, complete with alien beings, inside it. Despite this notion being rejected by the scientific community for at least 300 years, and despite the fact that geology, volcanology, oceanography, and physics have all proven that the planet does not have any substantial empty space inside of it, the idea of a hollow Earth continues to intrigue people and gain eager and sincere adherents. Why does this debunked notion seem to be gaining more followers? While most people accept that the Earth is an oblate spheroid and not flat, and that it is made up of rock and liquid magma and is not hollow, it's both interesting and of value to analyze radical ideas and examine how they endure and develop. Taken at face value, these ideas are patently ridiculous, but they provoke strong emotions in sincere people who have thought about their beliefs. These people feel they are privy to a hidden truth and that the rest of the world is wrong and ignorant. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jim D. Johnston.
