Audiobook narration quote of the day: "Television was dismissed as a threat to democracy, as critics worried that entertainment-focused programming would create a politically ignorant society." The critics were right. It certainly has. #audiobooks #narration #narrators

Justice Roberts lets Bsllroom construction continue. So tell me again why lawsuits, laws, lower court rulings, the Constituion, or really anything matters anymore? “We’ve finally stopped him this time!” Said Charlie Brown as he ran full-speed, ready to finally kick that football.

I’m so old, when I see the word Lotus, if it’s not the flower, it’s the car. Didn’t know they made a 123.

Sometimes you're on a long 0-fer. Athletes just stay confident and 'trust the process'. But when they go on a long hitless streak, they still get paid. I need some hits, and soon.

In August 2011 I recorded first paid professional audiobook. It was Audible's #1 Zombie book of the year. Fifteen years later, I'm recording a book for @tantoraudio.bsky.social in the home studio. Thanks to all the publishers and authors! From outdoor Shakespeare to indoor #Audiobooks Full spectrum

Soooo…. The Ballroom is blocked by the Appeals Court, but they actually have never stopped construction. It’s well under way. So what? Do they tear it down? Let’s say it goes to Scotus and he loses. Then what? Is it finally over and they destroy it? Abandon it 1/2 built? Our system is broken

It's 4th of July weekend and sharks have been spotted near the beaches of NY and NJ. You can stay home and watch Jaws OR you can sit by the pool and listen to the audiobook "Silent Came The Monster", a novel based on the real shark attacks along the NJ shore in 1916! www.audible.com/pd/Silent-Ca...

Well, if Southern Conservative Christians are right, based on their explanations of past disasters, it’s God’s Wrath against their evil ways. God hates the South.

Call me arrogant, but I’m listening to an #audiobook that I auditioned for but didn’t get. I still think I would have been better. Maybe it was sound of the voice more than performance that interested them. Or they prefer that performance style… it’s not what I do.

This Shitshow is currently doing a 4 year residency. After year one, audiences agree - it’s a complete Shit Show. Audiences can expect more of the same, with no changes to the overall programming till the current run ends. Hopes that it will close early show no signs of materializing soon.

I'm entirely serious about this: until you internalize the view that urban America is Real America, you won't see the urgency of structural reform of an American government whose fundamental structures so disadvantage its population centers—the great engines of its prosperity, progress, & culture.

In college (1982) I let a couple guys on my dorm hall borrow my volleyball. I never saw it again. No replacement. No apology. Just gone. Lost or stolen. I suspect stolen and kept. I’m still owed a volleyball.

Ro Khanna: "They're making comedy illegal. Brendan Carr pressured ABC to cancel Jimmy Kimmel, and Disney cancels Jimmy Kimmel. This canceling from an administration that lectured us about cancel culture. That's why today I'm introducing a motion to subpoena Brendan Carr."
