• FREE -- Orthodoxy -- GK Chesterton/ Simon Vance -- 6.5 hrs -- NF Christian

G.K. Chesterton was a journalist, playwright, poet, biographer, novelist, essayist, literary commentator, editor, orator, artist, and theologian. Orthodoxy is his great theological work, which amounts to an apology for the Christian faith heretofore unequalled, excepting perhaps by C.S. Lewis's Mere Christianity.

A serious attack against Christianity by well-known newspaper editor Robert Blatchford in 1903 impelled Chesterton to seize the gauntlet of refutation. His reply was immensely successful and was the early formation of his convincing credo that is so brilliantly and cogently argued in Orthodoxy, a masterwork that was published just five years later.

The Impeachment Inquiry Report, multiple narrators, is available free from Audible.

The Impeachment Inquiry Report audio recording contains two government-issued documents: the official impeachment inquiry and the official counter-report.

On December 3, 2019, The Trump-Ukraine Impeachment Inquiry Report, prepared by Adam B. Schiff, Chairman of the United States House of Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, in coordination with the Committee on Oversight and Reform and the Committee on Foreign Affairs, was released. The Report reflects the evidence gathered thus far as a part of the House of Representatives’ formal impeachment inquiry of President Donald J. Trump in response to the Ukraine scandal and alleged abuse of power. This recording is the full report, narrated with minor editorial changes for clarity.

Following The Trump-Ukraine Impeachment Inquiry Report, this recording also includes complete narration (with minor editorial edits for clarity) of The Report of Evidence in the Democrats’ Impeachment Inquiry in the House of Representatives. This Republican rebuttal was issued as an official minority report from the offices of Devin Nunes, Ranking Member, Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence; Jim Jordan, Ranking Member, Committee on Oversight and Reform; and Michael T. McCaul, Ranking Member, Committee on Foreign Affairs.

Audible has a history of recording and distributing public documents. This includes The Mueller Report, The 9/11 Commission Report, The Starr Report, and Pope Francis' encyclical letter on climate change and inequality, Encyclical Letter Laudato Si' of the Holy Father Francis: On Care for Our Common Home.

Editorial notes: Audible's version of The Impeachment Inquiry Report is free. If subsequent versions of this report are released, Audible will make every effort to provide updates. This audio product includes PDFs of both documents so our customers can read end notes, appendixes of names and abbreviations, and other materials, such as phone logs, that were not transferable to audio. We have made slight alterations to page order of these documents for clarity.

This audio book _was_ going to be a "buy" for me. _However_, a reviewer at Audible remarked that the audiobook is from an old edition (Audible: released 2005). Three new chapters have been added since the new version of the _book_ was published, in 2012(?).

This audio book is no longer a "buy" for me.

(Don't take my silence about other $4.98 audiobooks to indicate my approval--I probably won't vet them until some time later.)

As you read this, this post is in the process of being written.

_Louder Than Words (Enhanced Edition): Take Your Career from Average to Exceptional with the Hidden Power of Nonverbal Intelligence_. The _audio_, and _ebook_, and _video_--yes, video--together, of the title above are for sale by Amazon. Apparently. If so, the price is $1.99, for the whole package!

The reason that I wrote "apparently," is that there is a choice for "Kindle Edition with Audio/Video." How do you interpret that? I interpret that to say you get the Kindle ebook and _both_ the audio and video, too. One thing that I think that I can say for sure is that I don't remember ever seeing such an option before now.

Of course, it's one thing to offer all three together for a prohibitively high price, but another thing altogether to offer it affordably--this package is _$1.99_!

Excuse me, but I'm going to go to take a screenshot or two, in case the offer disappears.

Oh, first, the URL where you can get the deal is the book's webpage: https://www.amazon.com/Louder-Than-W..._bbid=13641059.

After I take the screenshots, I'll try to open the ebook, audio, and video, and see what happens.
