    A look at the cultlike characteristics of major institutions and beliefs of mainstream society. The famous 20th-century philosopher and "anti-guru" guru Krishnamurti said, "It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society." Some years later, psychedelics researcher Terrence McKenna said, "Culture is not your friend." What do you think this means? Could it be that most of what you are taught is not for your benefit but to condition you and make you satisfied with the status quo? If these quotes resonate with you, you may be the perfect listener for Beyond the Cultoid. Both of those quotes are in the book, but quotes from famous people are only a very small portion of what's in here. The book is essentially a breakdown of how society is like a cult in so many different ways -nationalism, religion, pop culture, scientific materialism, and even most alternatives. Then I explore some of the ways we can possibly create a "postcultoid" society - as an individual, through political and economic alternatives and through updated versions of spiritual traditions such as Taoism, hermeticism, and the "middle path" that is recognized by so many philosophers and spiritual teachers. ungekürzt.

    Running off to join the French Foreign Legion used to be every boy's dream of action and adventure. But for Lieutenant Bill Reilly - half Irish, half American, and like Peter O'Toole in Lawrence of Arabia, a Westerner at war in the desert - the dream has turned into a nightmare. And it all begins with the gruesome delivery of a severed hand… The dead, gnarled fingers hold a message from the Berber chief Abd el-Ulad. He challenges the courage of the Legion soldiers and says he holds an American woman captive - who, if Reilly doesn't come to her rescue, is next up for dismemberment. Reilly abandons his post guarding the trains and goes after her.But it’s all a trick. In his absence, the railroad falls victim to a terrorist attack. But who set the trap and engineered the sabotage? Reilly is caught in a triangle of treachery as the French, Spanish and native Berbers vie for control. His fate—as well as that of the American woman—rests on his ability to escape a spider’s web of double- and triple-crosses and uncover the truth in a desert of deception.The bugles blow, the rifles crack, and the sandstorms swirl as the audio version of Hostage to Death carries you off to an exotic land of surprising romance and sudden terror.* An International Book Awards Finalists ungekürzt.

    An adventure book that follows a self-centered, entitled boy as he crash-lands on an island and slowly learns the importance of selflessness and altruism. Riley Pickering knows he'll be the next Sidney Crosby, so it is expected everyone should cater to him, take care of his needs, and worship the ground he walks on. In addition, he has no patience for school, science, Mme. Capretta, the French language, or following rules. However, when a science project goes horribly wrong, Riley finds himself in the middle of the Pacific, stranded on an island scrambling to find ways to survive. When he meets two teenagers who are in a similar predicament, he begins to question whether he accidentally landed on the island, or whether he was intentionally sent there. ungekürzt.

    The Hairy Ape (1922) is an expressionist play by Eugene O'Neill. The protagonist, Yank, yearns for a sense of belonging in a world he perceives as being controlled by the rich. Initially, Yank enjoys his job stoking the engines of an ocean liner. Then the wealthy daughter of a steel magnate refers to him as a "filthy beast", and Yank starts experiencing an identity crisis. He leaves the ship, and while walking around Manhattan, comes to the conclusion that he does not belong anywhere; not with the rich on Fifth Avenue nor with the labor unions on the waterfront. This alienation completes the destruction of his psyche. On a visit to the zoo, he imagines himself to be a gorilla, opens the real animal’s cage and attempts to greet it. The hairy ape attacks Yank and throws him in the cage, where he dies. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Andrea Giordani.

    On a chilly November New York City morning in 1953, a scientist working for the CIA on psychotropic mind-control experiments walked off the 10th-floor balcony of the Statler Hotel. He had become increasingly disenchanted with the bizarre and incredibly dangerous work he had been doing in service to national security. Despite the patriotic rationale, the scientist felt his life’s work was immoral and most certainly illegal. He wanted out - unfortunately, he knew too much, and knowing too much is a very precarious position to be in if you work for a clandestine operation run by America’s very own version of Josef Mengele, the Angel of Death. The scientist insisted on getting out, and out he got, through the window and off the balcony of the Statler Hotel on that brisk fall morning in Manhattan. Was suicide his solution for terminating his deal with the devil, or did the devil do him in? It’s impossible to say. The evidence although in plain sight is murky and blurred by time and the self-preservation of those responsible. I know what you’re thinking: not in my America, not in my beloved United States, not in the home of the brave and the land of the free. Unfortunately, it did happen; it’s the kind of thing that happens when governments feel an existential threat. America has a fundamental flaw, an Achilles heel of perspective and attitude; it fails to understand history and its place in it. In the words of philosopher, George Santayana, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” If you believe it can’t happen here, I urge you to take a look at the Wall Street Putsch of 1933, and the name of one of the participants. You might find it informative. It could happen again. America is under siege by a series of existential threats. It’s not some crackpot conspiracy theory; it’s history. The question I have is: Which is more dangerous, the external threat or the internal threat?For those who cling to Senator ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kent F. Sheridan.
