Not in My Church, by Kyri Demby
Narrated by Benjamin Koenig
USA
UK
France
Germany
Synopsis: I guess when Psalm 150 in the Bible said, "Let everything that has breath, praise the Lord", it really meant everything! Frogs, birds, bees, chickens, ducks, and everything in between!
Not in My Church is a fun tale about a small church that saw this very scripture come to life, literally! Ribbit! Ribbit! Bzz, bzz. Quack quack! Hmm, hmm! Bac bac bac bahkee! Bac bac bac bahkee!
That church went from being a very quiet church where the people just come and sit to a church where they were jumping, running, shouting, and waving their hands! I laugh every time I think of their unlikely teachers!

The Journey to Become A Better You, by Alpha Timbo
Narrated by Benjamin Koenig
USA
UK
France
Germany
In this increasingly cynical world, one's desire to be the best version of themselves has become synonymous with greed, lust for fame, attention, and power. This misconception, whether adopted consciously or unconsciously, has trapped countless generations of people in mediocrity, poverty, and unfulfilled lives, keeping entire families and communities from ever thriving, cultivating their inherent potential, or impacting themselves and the world for the better.
This book breaks down the journey to becoming the best version of ourselves into its constituent parts. "The Journey To Become A Better You" teaches us to take advantage of our potential for change. It will help us move beyond the subconscious lies we've always thought were true—all our lives. We have always believed the limits were accurate and must step out of a mediocre mindset. As a human race, we are supposed to excel in our lives. The obstacles and challenges we face in our lives are there to prune and propel us forward if we respond to them accurately.
Without the heavy rain storm, a seed (you) will never grow beyond its protective shell buried underneath the dirt. To become something genuinely remarkable—adding beauty, shelter, or sustenance to the world surrounding it. As we strive to consistently evolve the best version of ourselves, we will break out of the shell that held us back. Finally, growing into what we were always to become-CHAMPIONS!

"The near future is progressively free from discrimination based on race, class, and sexual orientation. But in a world populated by the gifted, fifteen-year-old Alejandro Aragon (Alé) is part of the only remaining minority—he’s a Deficient. Powerless. The one that accelerated genetics left behind.
Alé knows that he’ll need a miracle to graduate and pursue his dream of a legal career in the capital. His only ally is his best friend Yalamba, an outspoken and exceptionally gifted artist renowned for her unique ability to draw things into existence. But when she’s kidnapped in a hate crime against her ability, it appears that Alé has every motive and no believable alibi.
To prove his innocence and track down the real culprit, Alé teams up with the other outcasts in school, who each have their own reasons for getting involved. But the deeper they dig, the more they fear Yalamba’s kidnapping is linked to a string of unsolved murders against the exceptionally gifted.
With time running out, Alé must discover who he really is if he and his new friends plan to track down the culprit, clear his name, and rescue Yalamba—all before she herself is drawn out of existence."

"My student, Dionte was so angry with me. He did not want to stay in my class. I was standing in front of the door preventing him from leaving, so he literally tried climbing out of the window. As he opened the window and pushed, the screen fell out. Dionte simply turned around and sat on the window seal and said, “I’ve gone too far. I’m sorry Mr. Demby". As the other students sat and watched in amazement, ready for me to start fussing, I just smiled. Because Dionte had shown me that my methods were working! He had come from being a desk throwing angry student to the young man I expected him to be. I was super excited. The self-corrected student is a student who is so aware of themselves and their surrounding that they can clearly foresee difficulties. Manage their thoughts and behaviors in any situation. They are Self-Aware. They are Socially aware. They are Self-Managed. They make right decisions. They even can tell when they have gone too far and can take the necessary steps to correct it. Teachers can spend less time with behavior and more time teaching if they had Self-Corrected Students.
Liar Alleged, A Tell All: Celebrities, Sex, and All the Rest, by David Vass

"In the 50s, gays took on stereotypical roles David Vass did not embrace. “I wasn’t a top, bottom, butch or fem - I scared the shit out of all the homos I met!” Entertaining, humorous, and shocking, he reveals secrets of the record labels (how he became a mafia money runner), juicy, never-before-told anecdotes about legendary celebrities - Oscar, Emmy, Grammy, Golden Globe and Tony award winners that he technical directed. Over 100 World Class difficult personalities were kept in line by Vass. Many shared their secrets with him.
“At seven, I stopped talking for two years because of a speech impediment and started writing. Diaries were the first of my addictions. I wrote down everything that happened to me for seven decades. These outrageous experiences are the bones of my book; I hope none of the mobsters I knew will leave a horse’s head in my bed!”
David’s story is still relevant, given today’s political backpedaling of our civil liberties. His life is raunchy, hilarious, twisted, and brutally honest. A laugh-out-loud page-turner: gay little boy of the 50s, stumbles into the dangerous world of strip clubs in the 60s where he learned his talent as a technical director. Working the hottest clubs and iconic theatres, record labels lined up to contract him for his ‘celebrity-whisperer’ talents and his connections to the mob in the 70s.
The fun he had in prison; “best sex of my life”, thrills with pills, robbing his mother in drag thinking she wouldn’t recognize him. She did. His salacious adventures in a pre-AIDs world. A homo-hobo, Vass’s mash-up is brutally honest and a cautionary tale laced with inspiration.
