Libro.fm

Lewis narrates this new version of his revelatory work, covering the details that led to the great economic collapse of 2008. In the world of high finance, a new kind of structured investment takes shape: a derivative market based on the failures of average Americans. If the details are still unclear to listeners after finishing, that's the point. These products were deliberately designed to hide in plain sight, filtering untold sums to investors. Lewis' steady and confident narration is punctuated with news clips reporting updates on the growth of these mysterious yet seductive billion-dollar deals that led to the devastating collapse, the effects of which still reverberate two decades later.

An essential, if complex, listening experience that will enrage listeners once again.

    WHEN THE LEGENDS DIE

    by Hal rland ; read by Norman Dietz ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A

    In this fascinating coming-of-age portrait, Thomas Black Bull's journey from the child, Bear's Brother, to the fearsome rodeo rider, Killer Tom Black, is painted with compassion and insight. Forced to learn the White Man's ways, Tom reaches adulthood consumed by rage. Read with great vigor by Norman Dietz, the recording bursts with the energy of rodeo circuit and transports the listener to the southwest. The accurate portrayal of Tom's Ute ancestry and way of life, the sorrow and frustration of losing his heritage, and his angry retaliation at the world make this an excellent listening choice for adults and teenagers. It would also be a wonderful addition to high school units on the Native American experience.

      RUBBER LEGS AND WHITE TAIL-HAIRS

      by Patrick F. McManus ; read by George S. Irving ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A

      George S. Irving adopts Patrick McManus's characters with gusto. Sit back and listen to yarn after yarn. Irving relishes each story, whether it's fishing stories, such as "Claw of the Sea-Puss" or "To Filet or Not to Filet," or the escapades with McManus's wary but vulnerable neighbors. Irving has the jocular chuckle down pat, and the low comedy satire comes off without a hitch. Listeners can imagine Irving tipping back a chair at the country store swapping lies with cronies and entertaining any comers with these hilarious tales. His repertoire of more than eight collections of McManus stories encourages this kind of ownership!
