  Beyond the Cultoid , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 119min

  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.

  Fix: Break the Addictions That Are Killing Brands , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 290min

  Finally, a how-not-to guide for marketers who are tired of wasting time, energy, and money on tactics that no longer work. In a world with too many choices and too little time, companies without highly engaged, devoted, and vocal customers won't survive.Unfortunately, too many brand stewards, and subsequently their budgets, are seemingly addicted to certain marketing behaviors and woefully underinvest in some of the most impactful yet least appreciated marketing activities. All too often, vitally important consumer engagement strategies fall to other departments or disciplines, such as HR, operations, or merchandising. While other groups may be competent and well-intentioned, they usually lack the skills, resources and funding found within the marketing group that would allow their brand to become truly remarkable. This audiobook was recorded to inspire bold brand leaders to reclaim marketing's power position within the C-suite and more fully exploit the rich talent and sizable budgets at their disposal. CMOs are the rightful stewards of the two most important things a business does...improving consumer engagement and increasing sales. But that kind of stewardship requires radically redefining the day-to-day responsibilities of the marketing department, weaning itself off promotional sales tactics, and refocusing its efforts on six specific areas that best help brands attract cultlike followers. ungekürzt.

  Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right, Hörbuch, Digital, 357min

  The immutable fact of politics in America is this: liberals hate conservatives." Ann Coulter, whose examination of the Clinton impeachment was a major national best seller, now takes on an even tougher issue. At a time when Democrats and Republicans should be overwhelmingly congenial, American political debate has become increasingly hostile, overly personal, and insufferably trivial. Whether conducted in Congress or on the political talk shows, played out at dinners or cocktail parties, politics is a nasty sport. At the risk of giving away the ending: It's all liberals' fault. Cultlike in their behavior, vicious in their attacks on Republicans, and in almost complete control of mainstream national media, the left has been merciless in portraying all conservatives as dumb, racist, power hungry, homophobic, and downright scary. This despite the many Republican accomplishments of the last few decades, as well as the Bush administration's expert handling of the country's affairs in the wake of the worst attacks on American soil and of the war that followed. With incisive reasoning and meticulous research, Ann Coulter examines the events and personalities that have shaped modern political discourse. She demonstrates how the media, especially, are biased - and usually wrongheaded - and have done all in their power to obfuscate the issues and the people behind them, bending over backward to villainize and belittle the right, while rarely missing an opportunity to praise the left. Refreshingly honest and unerringly timely, Slander continues where Bernard Goldberg's number one best selling Bias left off. Listen to Ann Coulter on C-SPAN's Booknotes (8/11/02). Language: English. Narrator: Ann Coulter. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/rand/000217/bk_rand_000217_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

  Eyes Wide Open , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 674min

  A horrible family tragedy that may not be what it seems.... A past encounter with an infamous killer turns deadly today.... An ordinary man must risk his own family to find the truth. Jay Erlich's nephew has been found at the bottom of a cliff at Morrow Bay. It's all just a tragic suicide, until secrets from the past begin to rear up again. Did a notorious killer, jailed for many decades, have his hand in this? Years ago, Jay Erlich's older brother, Charlie, a wayward child of the sixties, set out for California, where he fell under the sway of a charismatic but deeply disturbed cultlike figure. Tragedy ensued and lives were destroyed, but as the decades passed, Charlie married and raised a family and lived a quiet, secluded life under the radar. Yet the demons that nearly destroyed him never completely disappeared. When Jay heads out west to help his grieving brother, he is pulled back into Charlie's past—and begins to suspect that his nephew's suicide may not have been that at all. With eyes wide open, Jay puts his own life at risk to uncover the truth, a quest that goes beyond the edge of madness and a family haunted by a secret past . . . and into the depths of evil. Drawing on two real-life experiences from his own past, Gross has crafted a richly personal, yet utterly terrifying tale of two brothers, one successful, one wayward, trying to bridge the gap of what tore them apart. ungekürzt.
