  There may be an occasional flaw in the auto expert advice of brothers Tom and Ray Maggliozzi, but the complaint box remains empty, with no factory recall in sight. The next entry in the ever popular Car Talk Classics series features four all time favorite Car Talk episodes, hand-picked by host Click and Clack, the Tappet Brothers, and presented here together for the first time. Car Talk continues to be one of public radio's most popular and laugh-inducing programs, with a weekly audience of four million listeners. 
   
   
   
  Car Talk, winner of a Peabody Award, is broadcast each week to NPR stations nationwide. The world's wackiest call-in show, it mixes automotive advice with wisecracks, roadside philosophy, and guffaws. No problem is too ridiculous, no solution to absurd, and before you know it, "you've wasted another perfectly good hour listening to Car Talk." Or, in this case, four.

  Writing Wrongly - The ongoing...

  "When the whole world's against you, at least it's something to lean on." 
  When the worst writer in history self-publishes his books, the world of literature is decimated overnight. Illiteracy becomes something to aspire to and book burnings become rife. The publishing industry is left hemorrhaging credibility and teeters on the brink of collapse. Its recovery is not a matter of removing said books, or even destroying them: the same must be done to the mind responsible. 
  Thomas may be the worst writer to have ever lived, but if he’s not careful, he won’t be doing much of that, either. 
  This Sortabiography is the story of one writer against the entire publishing industry. There’s lots of swearing and temper tantrums, as well as a brand new psychiatric illness. There’s also an excellent café scene, which, although short, is worth mentioning. 
   “Dreadful. The title says it all. Except about it being dreadful. ” - Carmen Schneider. Acquisitions Editor, PBA. 
  “The publishing industry is in upheaval, it’s true. But this just rubs balsamic vinegar into its wounds and garnishes it with slices of turd.” – Robert Tasher. MD, Banquet Press. 
  “It’s ebooks like this that should have the internet banned.” - Malcolm Shrot-Faith, Literary Agent.

  "The Modules Operandi of Jezebel" is a gripping exploration of manipulation, power, and ambition, woven through the story of a complex and enigmatic protagonist. Jezebel, both alluring and dangerous, operates in a world where control and deception are her greatest tools. This book is classic, delving into the strategies and psychological tactics Jezebel employs to navigate her way through a web of intricate relationships, shifting alliances, and moral ambiguity among brethren, and the world at large. With each chapter, readers are pulled deeper into the acts of Jezebel, revealing her calculated moves and the lengths she’s willing to go to achieve her goals. This narrative not only examines the dark allure of power but also points the genealogy of Jezebel and raises thought-provoking questions about identity, influence, and the consequences of dangerous ambition.

  FUBAR - America's Right-Wing...

  The United States has survived clueless presidential administrations before. But no matter how enormous the crisis -- the Great Depression, Vietnam, Watergate, Monica Lewinsky's thong -- America's always come out looking like, well, America. 
  This time, however, something's different. Things aren't just screwed up; they're f&#!d up beyond all recognition. Welcome to F.U.B.A.R., a hilariously scathing satirical rundown of the Radical Right's takeover of America, by the creators of Air America's Majority Report. 
  If you're a liberal who's somehow not panicked over the state of our union, or if you're a Republican who's just having voter's remorse, or if you think what's happening to the country is just politics as usual, F.U.B.A.R. will open your eyes to our current national nightmare. With completely unfair and unbalanced analysis, authors Sam Seder and Stephen Sherrill take readers on a whirlwind tour of what's left of the United States, exposing the truth about the Right's blueprint for total domination -- over your money, your mind, your sex life, and even your place in the afterlife (yes, they have a plan for that, too). 
  Finally, Seder and Sherrill offer a helpful and hopeful vision for a future that remarkably doesn't look like a cross between the Matrix and Mayberry. F.U.B.A.R. is the wake-up call America has been waiting to receive -- and it will probably be wiretapped.

  Every line on a map tells a story — of power, of possibility, of people divided and connected in equal measure. 
  In Crossing Latitude, acclaimed travel writer Reece Davis traces the invisible boundaries that carve the planet, journeying along parallels and meridians from the equator to the Arctic Circle. Through deserts, oceans, and city streets, he meets those who live where these unseen lines dictate climate, culture, and fate. 
  From fishermen on the Tropic of Capricorn to scientists at 60° North, Davis uncovers how geography shapes humanity’s rhythm — and how the act of crossing a line, literal or metaphorical, reveals who we truly are. 
  Thought-provoking, vivid, and deeply human, Crossing Latitude invites readers to see the world not as a series of borders, but as a living, breathing web of connection.
