Title: River Songs: Moments of Wild Wonder in Fly Fishing Author: Steve Duda Narrator: Steve Duda Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 26 minutes Release date: November 12, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: River Songs is rich with bracing, authentic, generous stories—writing that revels in language and spirit. Avoiding most of fly fishing's clichés—the romantic elegies, the Moby-Dick-like conquests, the play-by-play detailing a 'victory' over a fish—Steve Duda instead offers pieces that breathe lived experience, reveal vulnerabilities, and convey a broad perspective of what it means to have 'a long run with a tight crew.' Duda is interested in what has been learned out there on the river: what is it about this 'ridiculous activity' that connects us to this planet, makes us human, gives us hope? River Songs focuses on the in-between moments and the unexpected revelations—awe, fear, frustration, doubt, joy—that are as much a part of fishing as tying knots and chucking flies. Listeners ride along with Duda in battered pickup trucks, fish 'between jobs,' look longingly at unfished famous rivers while touring with a country-punk band, and wonder how a fishing trip led to getting a tooth pulled while being surrounded by trash-talking friends. They will find beauty, discovery, heartbreak, good dogs, and the wonder of nature within the expanse of Northwest landscapes and beyond.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/803922Tue, 12 Nov 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/803922 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Everything Happens for a Reason: My Life in Rugby Author: Danny Care Narrator: Danny Care Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 6 minutes Release date: November 7, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. An honest, end-of-career autobiography from widely adored Harlequins and England rugby star Danny Care They say everything happens for a reason, and I think my life is proof of that. There have been a series of moments, some of them tough setbacks, that have proved over time to be pivotal to the person – and player – I am today. There was the time when my dreams of a football career came to an abrupt end but opened the door for rugby in my life; the ill-judged sledging outing that may have cost me the opportunity to go on a Lions tour; the times when my name made the headlines for the wrong reasons; the choice I made to miss an England tour, which led to meeting the love of my life on a party island halfway across the world; and the devastating moment when Eddie Jones dropped me from the England squad and I thought my international career was over. I sometimes wondered if it was meant to be but I kept on smiling and I worked hard as I kept my focus on playing the game that I love, that I owe everything to. And now, a little older and a little wiser – and with over 100 England caps, three Six Nations championships and two Premiership titles to my name, I want to tell you my story. The highs and lows, the good and the bad and everything in between. © Danny Care 2024 (P) Penguin Audio 2024]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/774141Thu, 07 Nov 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/774141 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: On The Edge: The Autobiography Author: Martin Keown Narrator: Martin Keown Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 14 minutes Release date: October 31, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin Over three revolutionary decades, Martin Keown played football at the highest level. He witnessed the birth of the Premier League, the arrival of the millionaire player and was a key player in one of the best sides of all time – Wenger’s Arsenal. So why has he always felt like a man battling on the edge? In this autobiography, Keown recounts how a son of working-class Irish parents, raised in a hostile England during the unrest of the 1970s, rose to be an automatic and enduring pick for club and country; the outsider who stayed the distance while so many insiders fell away. Over his career, Keown played alongside some of the world’s finest footballers – including Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp, Tony Adams, David Beckham – and under inspirational managers – Arsène Wenger, Kevin Keegan, Sven-Göram Eriksson, Howard Kendall. He was the backbone for many years of the invincible Arsenal team that went on to win the 2003/4 Premier League title without losing a match. Known as “The Rash” by friend and foe alike for the intensity of his man-marking, Keown always played as if he had more to prove. But his teammates knew he was fast, skilful, tough and loyal, a leader on and off the pitch. Fearless too, as you’ll discover – he doesn’t pull any punches here. On The Edge is the story of one of Arsenal’s all-time greats – a man whose commitment put him at the centre of the pitch, a place he dominated like almost no other footballer of his generation. © Martin Keown 2024 (P) Penguin Audio 2024]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/796083Thu, 31 Oct 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/796083 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: When I Passed the Statue of Liberty I Became Black Author: Harry Edward Narrator: Amir Abdullah Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 57 minutes Release date: October 29, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: The lost memoir of Britain's first Black Olympic medal winner—and the America he discovered After winning Olympic medals for Britain in 1920, Harry Edward (1898–1973) decided to try his luck in America. The country he found was full of thrilling opportunity and pervasive racism. Immensely capable and energetic, Harry rubbed shoulders with kings and presidents, was influential in the revival of Black theatre during the Harlem Renaissance, and became a passionate humanitarian and advocate for child welfare. He was present at some of the twentieth century's most significant moments, worked alongside W. E. B. Du Bois and Orson Welles, and witnessed two world wars and the civil rights movement. Yet he was frustrated at almost every turn. Toward the end of his life he set down his story, crafting this memoir of athletics and activism, race and racism on both sides of the Atlantic.

Title: When I Passed the Statue of Liberty I Became Black Author: Harry Edward Narrator: Amir Abdullah Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 57 minutes Release date: October 29, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: The lost memoir of Britain's first Black Olympic medal winner—and the America he discovered After winning Olympic medals for Britain in 1920, Harry Edward (1898–1973) decided to try his luck in America. The country he found was full of thrilling opportunity and pervasive racism. Immensely capable and energetic, Harry rubbed shoulders with kings and presidents, was influential in the revival of Black theatre during the Harlem Renaissance, and became a passionate humanitarian and advocate for child welfare. He was present at some of the twentieth century's most significant moments, worked alongside W. E. B. Du Bois and Orson Welles, and witnessed two world wars and the civil rights movement. Yet he was frustrated at almost every turn. Toward the end of his life he set down his story, crafting this memoir of athletics and activism, race and racism on both sides of the Atlantic. His manuscript went unpublished until now. This is the deeply engaging tale of Edward's life—and a moving testament to his drive to form a better world.]]>1805cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/last-boy-of-66-my-story-of-england-s-world-cup-winning-team-by-geoff-hurst--65127875https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/759632 to listen full audiobooks.

FOUR FOR ENGLAND. THREE FOR HURST. 'Images of us celebrating have taken their place in the nation’s photo album. Trophy aloft, smiling into our future. Banksy, George, Jack, Mooro, Ray, Nobby, Bally, Bobby, Martin, Roger. My ten teammates. My old friends. They’ve now all gone. Heroes from an era that is slipping into sepia.' But it isn't all over. Not yet. One of them is still here, and before he goes, Geoff wanted to get down his final thoughts about 1966. He talks about Alf Ramsay - his vision, his drive, his loyalty. Also his shyness, even awkwardness. About his teammates, about Jimmy Greaves - hard workers, cool heads, dedicated pros. Geoff tells their collective story, digging below the surface, reflecting on their victory, its impact on their lives. It was a bittersweet onward journey for the Boys of '66. Their legacy was squandered and their team uncelebrated. But the eleven of them shared something that no other Englishman has ever experienced.

Endurance, Determination and Grit: The first ever man to run the length of Africa shares his inspirational story 10,000 miles. 16 countries. 352 days. Hardest Geezer, Russ Cook, is the first person to ever run the entire length of Africa. From his starting point in Cape Agulhas, South Africa, through sandstorms in the Sahara Desert, rainforests, mountain ranges and long empty roads stretched out for miles in front of him, Russ ran the equivalent of 386 marathons before finally crossing the finish line in Tunisia 50 weeks later. Attempted kidnaps, being held at gunpoint in an armed robbery and the whole challenge left hanging in the balance when he was denied the right to cross Algeria, Russ never once contemplated giving up. When he crossed the finish line in Ras Angela, he did so with the eyes of the world on him. Africa may have been his most physical challenge yet but it certainly wasn’t his first. For years, Russ hid from the realities of life by drinking too much and losing himself in the world of online gambling and it wasn’t until he discovered running and sought out endurance challenges that life took a different turn. He soon learned that you don’t get to avoid the struggle, but you do get to choose it.

As she stood there, something primal came over her—the desire to fight.

Title: Home and Away Author: Mats Sundin Narrator: Alan Carlson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 36 minutes Release date: October 22, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: In one of the last great remaining untold stories in all of sports, the Hall of Fame Toronto Maple Leafs captain Mats Sundin shares for the first time an unfiltered look at playing hockey in Sweden and across North America as part of the sport’s most fabled franchises. Growing up in Sollentuna, Sweden, on the outskirts of Stockholm, Mats Sundin skated on the lake downhill from his house, a house his father had built with his own hands, on land his mother insisted on buying for their future. In the darkness of the Scandinavian winter Sundin would chase after his older brother on that lake for countless hours. Summers spent in nature with his grandparents instilled a lifelong love for the outdoors. Playing hockey in their driveway, the three Sundin brothers imagined scenes of suiting up for Sweden’s national team and scoring a game winning goal against their favoured rival, the Soviet Union. It wasn’t until his late teens that he caught the eyes of scouts and coaches from the other side of the Atlantic. At the 1989 NHL draft, eighteen-year-old Sundin was as surprised as anyone when he was selected first overall by the Quebec Nordiques. After a few years as a Nordique, Sundin was traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for the highly popular Leaf captain, Wendel Clark. In his early years in Toronto, he felt both at home and from away, working extra hard to gain acceptance in the world’s toughest hockey market. Even once he was named captain, Sundin didn’t deviate from his quiet nature but instead lead by example, never asking anyone to work harder than he did. Over thirteen seasons with the team, he would learn just how fiery the cauldron of Leafs Nation could be. In Home and Away, Mats Sundin writes openly for the first time about what it was like for him to uproot his life in Sweden to embark on a long hockey career an ocean away. Home and Away is an elegiac, heartfelt, and honest story of a man who followed his passions, cherished his family, faced heavy scrutiny, and ultimately earned his way into both the hearts of fans and the hockey record books. His journey transcends the rink and shows what it means to be a quiet and unpretentious Swedish kid who went on to become one of the most accomplished players in the history of the game.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/773670Tue, 22 Oct 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/773670 to listen full audiobooks.

Life is a beautiful game – but how should you play it? For Sven-Göran Eriksson, one of the world’s most revered and respected football managers, the game has come to an end. He leaves us with his parting reflections, looking back on what he has achieved, experienced and learned over a lifetime in service to the beautiful game. It is a journey that has taken him from a small club in his native Sweden, across every continent, to competing on the world’s stage. Before his death, he was able to impart the lessons he’s learned along the way – about life, leadership and love – and to speak candidly about his extraordinary successes, as well as overcoming his failures. On the field, he led some of the finest sportsmen on earth to great victories and heartbreaking defeats, and in the process left his indelible mark on the game. This is a story of lives touched and connections made in the dogged pursuit of excellence. But for Sven the true journey he wanted to share is the one he made on the inside – the man that he became. Because A Beautiful Game is far more than the tale of a successful football manager. It is the story of the biggest game of all – what makes a good life. A story that endures, long after the final whistle. © Bengt Berg and Sven-Goran Eriksson 2024 (P) Penguin Audio 2024]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/799330Thu, 17 Oct 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/799330 to listen full audiobooks.

It’s now the norm for NBA and collegiate teams to have international players dotting their rosters. The Olympics are no longer a gimme for Team USA. Both via fans streaming from all over the globe and leagues starting in countries throughout the world, the international presence of the game of basketball is a force to be reckoned with. That all started with Hakeem “the Dream” Olajuwon. He was the first international player to win the MVP, which is hard to believe now considering the last time an American‑born player won it was in 2018. Award-winning hoops journalist Mirin Fader explores this phenomenal shift through the lens of what Olajuwon accomplished throughout the 1980s and ‘90s. Dream ignites nostalgia for Phi Slama Jama and “the Dream Shake,” while also exploring the profound influence of Olajuwon’s commitment to Islam on his approach to life and basketball, and how his devotion to his faith inspired generations of Muslim people around the world. Olajuwon’s ongoing work with NBA Africa, his status as an international ambassador for the game, and his consultations with today’s brightest stars, from LeBron James to Giannis Antetokounmpo, brings the story right up to the present moment, and beyond.

No one who knows the game is unfamiliar with the story of the NHL’s  first Muslim Stanley Cup winner, Nazem Kadri, nor does anyone doubt his warmth and openness in front of a microphone, or his eagerness to challenge the next generation of Muslim athletes. He is a league All-Star, a highlight-reel player, and someone who has been called upon to be the face of his community from the moment he put on skates. Nazem Kadri was a top-ten draft pick of the Toronto Maple Leafs, chosen not only for his elite skills but because he would reflect Toronto’s immense diversity and huge Muslim population. And he was soon a fan favourite, not only with a new generation of diverse fans, but with traditionalists too, who admired his willingness to play the game with old-school toughness.  In the end, he was traded to Colorado as management sought to shake up the team. But it was the Avalanche, not the Leafs, who benefitted most, and Toronto fans missed him. When Colorado won the Stanley Cup in 2022, Kadri (by then a fan favourite in Denver) was a clutch player in high-pressure games. Today he is a veteran leader with the Calgary Flames, and still making the highlight reels.  But the core of Kadri's story is what happened off the ice—both shocking and heartwarming. Kadri faced brutal anti-Muslim harassment during Colorado's Cup run from Blues fans and received incredible support from Denver fans. When a controversy arose about an uncalled penalty on the championship-winning goal, this founding member of the league’s Hockey Diversity Alliance used the opportunity to make humorous t-shirts, which raised over $250,000 for the Kadri Foundation. And when he had his traditional day with the Stanley Cup, he took it to the mosque in his hometown of London, Ontario, along with the message that the highest success, not just in hockey but in life, is a destiny any of us can choose.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/775542Tue, 15 Oct 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/775542 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Playing Ball: Life Lessons from My Journey to the Super Bowl and Beyond Author: Vernon Davis Narrator: Vernon Davis Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 59 minutes Release date: October 15, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: NFL football star Vernon Davis delves into his astonishing career, from winning Super Bowl 50 in 2016 with the Denver Broncos to reinventing himself as an actor and producer, and recalls the hard-won lessons—including that infamous press conference—that paved his path to success.INCLUDES AN INTRODUCTION FROM COACH MIKE SINGLETARYIn October 2008, after a San Francisco loss to Seattle, Vernon Davis was put on blast by Coach Mike Singletary in a fiery speech criticizing his “me-myself-and-I attitude.” It proved to be the turning point in Davis’s career, and the inspiration for him to change his mind set and his game plan, as well as his perspective on life and family.At the time, Davis was a young, talented player drafted by the San Francisco 49ers in 2006 at number six, one of the highest drafted tight ends in NFL history. He played ten years for the 49ers, including a 2013 Super Bowl loss to the Baltimore Ravens in a 34–31 heartbreaker, where Davis recorded six catches for 104 yards. He later won a Super Bowl in 2016 with Peyton Manning and the Broncos, after nailing a crucial downfield block that sprung teammate C. L. Anderson for a key 34-yard run that helped the Broncos defeat the Carolina Panthers 24–10 for the ring.Davis retired in 2019 after four final years of playing for his hometown team in Washington, DC. He’s now deeply involved in his new passion for acting and producing. Here, he rewinds his real-life tape to reflect on his youthful beginnings, his career, and competitive spirit—and the insights on teamwork, leadership, and responsibility that came in the aftermath of Coach Singletary’s press conference that prompted Davis to transform his football career and his life for the better.Weaving personal reflections with frank, real-world advice, Playing Ball is an eye-opening story of what winning—on the field and off—is all about.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/760706Tue, 15 Oct 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/760706 to listen full audiobooks.

No Irish rugby player has ever achieved more, or been a source of more inspiration to teammates and fans alike, than Johnny Sexton. All of this would have seemed highly unlikely as late as May 2009, when – aged 24 – he was nowhere near first choice at Leinster, and still uncapped by Ireland. In his hotly anticipated autobiography, Johnny will tell the story of his life, and explore the sources of his unmatched will to win. The Sexton era – marked by four European Cups, four Six Nations championships (and two Grand Slams), unprecedented victories in the Southern Hemisphere, two stints for Ireland at number 1 in the world, and the World Player of the Year award – was above all the time when Leinster and Ireland went from being underachievers to being overachievers. Always outspoken on and off the field, Sexton will offer an honest look at his childhood, his sometimes unpromising-seeming early experiences in club and professional rugby, his relationships with key teammates and coaches (including Brian O'Driscoll, Paul O'Connell, Joe Schmidt and Andy Farrell), and his ideas about the game.

Title: MACCA: My story so far Author: Mackenzie Arnold Narrator: Tessa De Josselin Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 28 minutes Release date: October 8, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Matildas fever swept across the country during the 2023 World Cup campaign, filling stadiums beyond capacity, uniting communities and inspiring the next generation of world-class athletes. In one of the iconic 'where-were-you-when' moments in Australian sports history, the Matildas faced down the French in an epic penalty shootout that would propel them through to the semifinals for the first time ever. Standing on the collective brilliance of her teammates, it was Macca's courage, leadership, steel-eyed focus and heroics in front of goal that won the hearts of a nation. We'll never forget the outstretched arms, the roar of victory, green and gold flooding the pitch. But heroes don't just fall from the sky. Storybook endings often belie a lifetime's work, and the making of Mackenzie Arnold began well before that electric night in August. Macca's story is one of dizzying heights and hard-won lessons. Whether it's facing down her doubts and fears to find the courage to be her truest self on and off the pitch; using her temporary setbacks to inspire others; or shouldering the hopes of a nation to deliver moments that transcend sport, Mackenzie Arnold has packed a lot into her life so far. Honest, funny, brave and inspired, Macca shares her story here for the first time: the family and first-believers who supported and challenged her from the beginning; the coaches and mentors who pushed her beyond her comfort zone and provided the blueprint of a champion; the rivals and teammates who transformed the Matildas into a global force to be reckoned with. And for her next act? Heroics and storybook endings are best left unscripted, but if Mackenzie Arnold has taught us one thing it's this: Don't blink.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/767054Tue, 08 Oct 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/767054 to listen full audiobooks.

Storybook endings often belie a lifetime's work, and the making of Mackenzie Arnold began well before that electric night in August. Macca's story is one of dizzying heights and hard-won lessons. Whether it's facing down her doubts and fears to find the courage to be her truest self on and off the pitch; using her temporary setbacks to inspire others; or shouldering the hopes of a nation to deliver moments that transcend sport, Mackenzie Arnold has packed a lot into her life so far. Honest, funny, brave and inspired, Macca shares her story here for the first time: the family and first-believers who supported and challenged her from the beginning; the coaches and mentors who pushed her beyond her comfort zone and provided the blueprint of a champion; the rivals and teammates who transformed the Matildas into a global force to be reckoned with. And for her next act? Heroics and storybook endings are best left unscripted, but if Mackenzie Arnold has taught us one thing it's this: Don't blink.]]>185cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/ali-a-life-shortlisted-for-the-william-hill-sports-book-of-the-year-2017-by-jonathan-eig--65127804https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/809535 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Ali: A Life: Shortlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year 2017 Author: Jonathan Eig Narrator: Kevin R. Free Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 22 hours 52 minutes Release date: October 3, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: BRITISH SPORTS BOOK AWARDS SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR. SHORTLISTED FOR THE WILLIAM HILL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR PRIZE 2017. SHORTLISTED FOR THE JAMES TAIT BLACK BIOGRAPHY OF THE YEAR. WINNER OF THE PEN/ESPN AWARD FOR LITERARY SPORTS WRITING. THE TIMES SPORTS BOOK AWARDS BIOGRAPHY OF THE YEAR. The most comprehensive and definitive biography of Muhammad Ali that has ever been published, based on more than 500 interviews with those who knew him best, with many dramatic new discoveries about his life and career.  When the frail, trembling figure of Muhammad Ali lit the Olympic flame in Atlanta in 1996, a TV audience of up to 3 billion people was once again gripped by the story of the world's most famous sporting icon. The man who had once been reviled for his refusal to fight for his country and for his fast-talking denunciation of his opponents was now almost universally adored, the true cost of his astonishing boxing career clear to see. In Jonathan Eig's ground-breaking biography, backed up with much detailed new research specially commissioned for this book, we get a stunning portrait of one of the most significant personalities of the second half of the twentieth century. We are not only taken inside the ring for some of the most famous bouts in boxing history, we also learn about his personal life, his finances, his faith and the moments when the first signs of his physical decline began to show. Ali was a symbol of freedom and courage, a hero to many, but this is also a very personal story of a warrior who vanquished every opponent but was finally brought down by his own stubborn refusal to quit. An epic tale of a fighter who became the world's most famous pacifist, Ali: A Life does full justice to an extraordinary man. ‘Ali: A Life is the business – 640 pages of patient scholarship and intelligent reassessment written in crackly prose’ Giles Smith, The Times   ‘[A] richly researched, sympathetic yet unsparing portrait ...

Title: Iron Mike: My Life Behind the Bench Author: Scott Morrison, Mike Keenan Narrator: Wayne Ward Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 3 minutes Release date: October 1, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: AN INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER The must-read memoir of one of the NHL's most controversial and successful coaches—winner of the 1994 Stanley Cup with the New York Rangers. In the fraternity of NHL coaches, some stand out for their winning records, some for their big personalities and some for their unprecedented methods. Mike Keenan stands out on all these counts, and more.     Breaking into the NHL as head coach of the Philadelphia Flyers in 1984, Keenan got instant results, leading them to the Stanley Cup final in his first year. In 1987, he coached Team Canada to victory in the Canada Cup using his intuitive bench management, putting superstars Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux together on a line at key times to great, winning results.     Keenan’s teams succeeded at every level. With championships in university athletics, the OHL and AHL, it seemed only a matter of time before his resumé would include the ultimate prize. One of the NHL’s most valuable franchises, the New York Rangers, hadn’t won a Cup in fifty-four years—the league’s longest championship drought at the time. But with five-time Stanley Cup champion Mark Messier as captain of the star-studded Rangers lineup, there was only one thing missing for a championship run on Broadway: a coach who could focus all the talent and desire on victory. After a season of much controversy, in 1994 the Stanley Cup finally returned to Madison Square Garden, considered by many to be one of the greatest Cup wins by a US-based NHL team.     In the hands of veteran sports journalist and bestselling author Scott Morrison, Iron Mike takes readers behind the scenes of one of the most explosive runs to the Cup in NHL history, one that Keenan shares at long last. There is only one Iron Mike in hockey, and love him or hate him, his memoir is an essential read for any fan of the game.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/773252Tue, 01 Oct 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/773252 to listen full audiobooks.

After fifteen years at the very pinnacle of test rugby, leading the most successful squad in Welsh history, Dan Biggar tells his story. ‘When I reflect on it all, I can say without any doubt that I gave it everything.’ Dan Biggar has never fitted the mould. Throughout his long and decorated career, he has had to confront the critics, to silence the cynics. His playing style has been described as brash, aggressive and forthright, and it has earned him a reputation he has never been able to shake. But to anyone who knows him off the pitch, he is one of the most grounded ambassadors the game could ask for. Honest and self-critical, Dan offers a rare insight into his personal and professional life. He talks candidly of his place within rugby, from the Premiership through to the Lions, and of the power dynamics within Wales’ most successful squad ever. He also opens the changing room doors and explores his relationships with past team mates, coaches and managers, from Warren Gatland and Shaun Edwards to Alun Wyn Jones and Wayne Pivac. The Biggar Picture is the story of a man who has taken in the joy, the graft and despair to become one of the sport’s most compelling figures – and Wales’ most capped fly-half.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/718307Thu, 26 Sep 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/718307 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Beautiful Dream: A Memoir Author: Atiba Hutchinson Narrator: Odario Williams Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 50 minutes Release date: September 24, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: NATIONAL BESTSELLER “A captivating read from one of our country’s greatest athletes.” ―Christine Sinclair, former captain of the Canadian Women's National Soccer Team and National Bestselling Author of Playing the Long Game Out of the Toronto suburb of Brampton comes an irresistible story of trials, perseverance, the limelight of international soccer, and—above all—heart. Despite debuting on Canada’s senior national soccer team 20 years ago, scarce is known of Atiba Hutchinson. We’ve watched him win Canadian Men’s Player of the Year six times; celebrated his club team championships; and mourned his injuries. We’ve lamented the state of Canadian soccer and cursed the lost potential—and years. Yet, we know little about Atiba’s personal life, or how he rose from suburban Brampton to becoming Canada’s most-capped national men’s team player, often described as the country’s greatest athlete you haven’t heard about. For the first time, Atiba is ready to share the extraordinary story of his ascent to the heights of professional soccer, nationally and internationally, and what he believes makes a true champion. The Beautiful Dream is an intimate account of Atiba’s awe-inspiring career, from his humble beginnings to playing across Europe; the crushing disappointment of failing national team competitions in the 2010s that nearly led to his resignation from the national program; all the way to his triumphant arrival in Qatar to face off against 31 other nations at the world’s most pre-eminent soccer competition. He has strived to better not only his own game but the landscape of Canadian soccer for over two decades, culminating in Canada’s first trip to the FIFA World Cup since 1986. Yet, as the reflective midfielder shows, this isn’t just his story: The Beautiful Dream is the story of countless Canadians, who strive and scrape for a seemingly unreachable dream—until their fingertips finally graze the surface. It’s a lesson about the unyielding belief required when taking the long road to success. Atiba's journey mirrors the progression of Canadian soccer, and the story of Canada itself: goals that may begin as outsized but as we work towards them, our world changes with us.  Atiba’s journey of hope, belief, and resilience connects the country’s modest soccer past to a bold, exciting future in the game. It’s a story that transcends the pitch, exploring what it means to be a kid who dares to dream of achieving the impossible, and the man who perseveres to get there.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/731823Tue, 24 Sep 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/731823 to listen full audiobooks.

Only one man from that group, Walter French, can lay claim to having played for a World Series winner and an NFL Championship team. In 1925, he starred for the Pottsville (PA) Maroons in their win over the Chicago Cardinals, in what was believed to be the NFL championship game, only to see the title stripped by a league office decision, a controversial move still being argued about today. Then in 1929, he was on the Philadelphia Athletics when they beat the Chicago Cubs in five games to win the World Series. French played with and against the biggest stars of the 1920s, including Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Walter Johnson, Ty Cobb, and twenty-seven other ballplayers who would eventually wind up in the Baseball Hall of Fame. In football, he went up against the likes of Notre Dame's George Gipp, the 'Four Horsemen,' Curly Lambeau, Geoge Halas, Ira 'Buck' Rogers, and many more. The top sports writers of his day, from Grantland Rice to Ed Sullivan, made regular mention of him in their columns.

''Finally Muhammad Ali has a biography as big, complex, and memorable as the man himself.'' —T.J. Stiles, author of Custer's Trials and The First Tycoon  Muhammad Ali was born Cassius Clay in racially segregated Louisville, Kentucky, the son of a sign painter and a housekeeper.

In The Players' Coach, the oldest active NFL coach chronicles the most exceptional players-first career in the history of professional football, talks football with his elite protégés and his underdog mentorees alike, and lays out the principles that helped him define the modern gridiron. In an era of 'systems' and 'analytics,' Moore maintains a refreshing focus on the 'Jimmys and Joes'—constantly refining and augmenting players' individual talents and ability to read defenses, and building play-calling around the unique skills of his players. This book digs deep into Moore's one-on-one sessions with all-time NFL greats, untested rookies, and grizzled veterans seeking football knowledge and play-making prowess. With Moore's coaching tips, leadership philosophy, and life lessons woven throughout, The Players' Coach is a player-development masterclass. It is also an inspirational life story, from humble beginnings to becoming the quarterback for the University of Iowa, a college coaching career, and then to assistant-coach and offensive-coordinator roles in six different decades. This book is destined to be a football classic, a coaching Bible, and a must-listen on leadership.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/794500Tue, 03 Sep 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/794500 to listen full audiobooks.

O'Connor answers every question, deftly and deeply, that we've had about the most controversial person in America's biggest game.'' —Peter King Four-time New York Times bestselling sport biographer Ian O’Connor pulls back the curtain on four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers, delivering the definitive portrait of the legendary yet mysterious quarterback who has astonished, befuddled, yet always captivated fans of America’s #1 sport. Aaron Rodgers is among the two or three most talented players to ever hold the most important job in American team sports – quarterback. He also stands as the most mysterious and polarizing figure in the modern-day national pastime that is professional football. From his controversial Covid stance to his methods of spiritual awakening to his estrangement from his family to his high-profile romances to his devastating Achilles injury a mere four plays into his New York Jets career, Rodgers has long dominated the NFL’s news cycle. At thirty-nine, in search of a challenge that would rejuvenate him, Rodgers divorced the iconic Green Bay Packers of Vince Lombardi fame for the Jets, who have not appeared in a Super Bowl since Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon. The trade made Rodgers the biggest story in the biggest league in the biggest market. By far. That story only got bigger when Rodgers shockingly went down on the night of 9/11, in front of a packed house that roared for him when he took the field carrying an American flag, and in front of the biggest Monday Night Football audience in ESPN history, peaking at more than 25 million viewers across all platforms. Rodgers then shocked the world by pulling off the fastest recorded comeback from an Achilles tear, returning to practice eleven weeks after surgery. Remarkably enough, he would have played again in the 2023 season, at age 40, had the Jets remained in playoff contention. Ian O’Connor uses hundreds of original interviews to pull back the curtain and answer the most penetrating questions about the league’s most enigmatic player. Just like he did in his defining bios of Bill Belichick, Mike Krzyzewski, Derek Jeter, Jack Nicklaus, and Arnold Palmer, O’Connor reveals all sides of an all-time great and delivers a portrait of a complex man that will forever shape the way he is viewed.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/728568Tue, 20 Aug 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/728568 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: A Baseball Gaijin: Chasing a Dream to Japan and Back Author: Aaron Fischman Narrator: Brian Nishii Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 18 minutes Release date: August 13, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Like many American boys, Tony Barnette yearned to one day make it to “The Show,” playing baseball professionally. The Arizona State pitcher was drafted in 2006 by the in-state Diamondbacks. Gradually ascending the minor-league ladder, it looked like this was the beginning of a blessed life, where he could play the game he loved on the grandest of stages in front of family and friends. But things don’t always work out the way we want. On the verge of achieving his lifelong dream after notching a league-high 14 wins in Triple A, Tony looked ahead to 2010 with optimism. That’s when Japan came calling, offering a significant salary hike in exchange for forgoing a likely forthcoming big-league debut. The Diamondbacks agreed to release Tony so he could play for Tokyo’s Yakult Swallows, the renowned Yomiuri Giants’ intra-city rivals. At the time, the only thing he had in common with the country was a love for baseball. He did not know the language and was unfamiliar with Nippon Professional Baseball and essentially everything else. On his own in a strange land, the burning desire to one day make the major leagues never subsided. He knew the odds were against him, as less than one quarter of gaijin (Japanese for “foreigner”) ballplayers who go to Japan appear in the majors at any point thereafter. First-year struggles led to multiple demotions and his end-of-year release. But when you’re chasing a dream, you expect to encounter several obstacles. Tony refused to be deterred. Over six seasons in Japan, the starter became a reliever and then a closer. After a strong 2015 season, in which he guided his long-suffering Swallows to the Japan Series, he finally got the call he had been waiting for.

Title: A Baseball Gaijin: Chasing a Dream to Japan and Back Author: Aaron Fischman Narrator: Brian Nishii Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 18 minutes Release date: August 13, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Like many American boys, Tony Barnette yearned to one day make it to “The Show,” playing baseball professionally. The Arizona State pitcher was drafted in 2006 by the in-state Diamondbacks. Gradually ascending the minor-league ladder, it looked like this was the beginning of a blessed life, where he could play the game he loved on the grandest of stages in front of family and friends. But things don’t always work out the way we want. On the verge of achieving his lifelong dream after notching a league-high 14 wins in Triple A, Tony looked ahead to 2010 with optimism. That’s when Japan came calling, offering a significant salary hike in exchange for forgoing a likely forthcoming big-league debut. The Diamondbacks agreed to release Tony so he could play for Tokyo’s Yakult Swallows, the renowned Yomiuri Giants’ intra-city rivals. At the time, the only thing he had in common with the country was a love for baseball. He did not know the language and was unfamiliar with Nippon Professional Baseball and essentially everything else. On his own in a strange land, the burning desire to one day make the major leagues never subsided. He knew the odds were against him, as less than one quarter of gaijin (Japanese for “foreigner”) ballplayers who go to Japan appear in the majors at any point thereafter. First-year struggles led to multiple demotions and his end-of-year release. But when you’re chasing a dream, you expect to encounter several obstacles. Tony refused to be deterred. Over six seasons in Japan, the starter became a reliever and then a closer. After a strong 2015 season, in which he guided his long-suffering Swallows to the Japan Series, he finally got the call he had been waiting for. Signing with the Texas Rangers in December, Tony would make his first major-league appearance on April 5, 2016, at age thirty-two. He’d go on to pitch four seasons with the Rangers and Chicago Cubs, fulfilling a lifelong dream. Through extensive research and reporting, Aaron Fischman worked directly with Tony to tell his story of perseverance, determination, and never giving up on your dream.]]>305cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/in-the-arena-by-beau-robinson--65127812https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/798558 to listen full audiobooks.

Who gets to tell the story of skateboarding? Drop In is the first book to recognize and historicize the female, queer, bi, and nonbinary humans who blazed the path that led to today’s more equitable skate culture. It wasn’t easy getting here. Like the rest of the world, skateboarding has long been patriarchal. In the 70s, it personified the punk rock, lock-up-your-daughters, middle-finger-to-the-man ethos. In the 80s, it was Miami Vice soundtracks and parachute pants, neon graphics and fingerless gloves. In the 90s it was New York City—graffiti, hip-hop, and skating in the street. Rarely did you see a woman’s name in a skate video—either on a deck or behind the lens. The four skateboarders at the heart of Drop In defied expectations of gender, talent, physical ability, and mental capacity to fight the status quo: Alana as the first openly nonbinary athlete in Olympic history; Vanessa as a record breaking runaway; Marbie as an accidental boundary-breaking trans icon; and Victoria as the skate rookie turned social media sensation. Drop In spotlights their paths from rebellious outsiders to recognized pioneers on the historic stage of the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, where skateboarding made its debut.

Georgia Cloepfil played professional soccer for six years, on six teams, in six countries. In those years, the sport became more than a game—it was an immersive yet transient way of life. In South Korea, she lived and practiced in an isolated island compound next to an airport. In Australia, she coached youth teams on the side to pay her rent. In Lithuania, she played in the European Champions League, to empty stadiums and little fanfare. She lived out of a single suitcase, chasing better opportunities and the euphoria of playing well.   The Striker and the Clock is a beautiful examination of the joy and pain of serious athletics. It’s also an eye-opening look at the still-developing world of professional women’s soccer. Written in ninety short passages—reflecting the ninety inexorably passing minutes of a soccer match—the book is a love letter to a maddening sport and a reflection on the way it has shaped a life. In vivid prose, it portrays the athlete as an artist, debating how much of herself to devote to her craft.  This finely wrought, singular book celebrates the complex appeal of sports and the fulfillment found in fleeting moments of glory.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/721875Tue, 16 Jul 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/721875 to listen full audiobooks.

To most NFL fans, Dick LeBeau is known as a football lifer, Pro Football Hall of Fame member, and mastermind behind the revolutionary zone blitz defense.

Title: King of the World: Muhammad Ali and the Rise of an American Hero Author: David Remnick Narrator: William Andrew Quinn Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 47 minutes Release date: July 2, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: The bestselling biography of Muhammad Ali—with an Introduction by Salman Rushdie On the night in 1964 that Muhammad Ali (then known as Cassius Clay) stepped into the ring with Sonny Liston, he was widely regarded as an irritating freak who danced and talked way too much. Six rounds later Ali was not only the new world heavyweight boxing champion: He was 'a new kind of black man' who would shortly transform America's racial politics, its popular culture, and its notions of heroism. No one has captured Ali—and the era that he exhilarated and sometimes infuriated—with greater vibrancy, drama, and astuteness than David Remnick, the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Lenin's Tomb (and editor of the New Yorker). In charting Ali's rise from the gyms of Louisville, Kentucky, to his epochal fights against Liston and Floyd Patterson, Remnick creates a canvas of unparalleled richness. He gives us empathetic portraits of wisecracking sportswriters and bone-breaking mobsters; of the baleful Liston and the haunted Patterson; of an audacious Norman Mailer and an enigmatic Malcolm X. Most of all, King of the World does justice to the speed, grace, courage, humor, and ebullience of one of the greatest athletes and irresistibly dynamic personalities of our time.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/771365Tue, 02 Jul 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/771365 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Make It Count: My Fight to Become the First Transgender Olympic Runner Author: Cecé Telfer Narrator: Cecé Telfer Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 20 minutes Release date: June 18, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: By turns harrowing and hopeful, MAKE IT COUNT is the inspiring story of the first openly transgender woman to win a NCAA title, following her traditional upbringing in Jamaica, her fight to become a US citizen, and her efforts to achieve her Olympic dreams. CeCé Telfer is a warrior. The first openly transgender woman to win an NCAA championship, she has contended with transphobia on and off the track since childhood. Now, she stands at the crossroads of a national and international conversation about equity in sports, forced to advocate for her personhood and rights at every turn. After spending years training for the 2024 Olympics, Telfer has been sidelined and silenced more times than she can count. But she's never been good at taking no for an answer. MAKE IT COUNT is Telfer's raw and inspiring story. From coming of age in Jamaica, where she grew up hearing a constant barrage of slurs, to beginning her new life in Toronto and then New Hampshire, where she realized what running could offer her, to living in the backseat of her car while searching for a coach, to Mexico, where she trained for the US Trials, this book follows the arc of Telfer's Olympic dream. This is the story of running on what feels like the edge of a knife, of what it means to compete when you're not just an athlete but treated like a walking controversy. But it's also the story of resilience and athleticism, of a runner who found a clarity in her sport that otherwise eluded her—a sense of being simply alive on this earth, a human moving through space.

When he set out to play each of Golf Digest’s America’s100 greatest golf courses in one year, Jimmie James knew he was attempting the impossible. But then again, he’d spent his entire life defying the odds. James was born invisible. His birth certificate, long since filed away in some clerk’s office in East Texas, recorded facts about him that were deemed most relevant in the late 1950s: “colored” and “illegitimate.” His great-great-grandmother was enslaved, and his early life was confided by the privation and segregation of the late Jim Crow-era South. Four decades later—having put himself through an HBCU and determinedly risen through the executive ranks at ExxonMobil—he embarked on his journey to play the 100 greatest golf courses in the United States. In a single year. From the first tee at Augusta National, the distance between the world he grew up in and the world of extreme privilege to which he’d now managed to gain access was impossible to ignore. Playing from the Rough is a “delightful” (Kirkus Reviews), “beautiful story” (Andrew Campion, former COO of Nike) about race, class, family, and the power of perseverance, as James braids his love of golf with reflections on the path that took him from childhood poverty to the most exclusive and opulent golf courses in America.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/723017Tue, 11 Jun 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/723017 to listen full audiobooks.

Born in a remote Mexican town, the left-hander had moved to the US less than two years before. He became an instant icon and there hasn't been a player since who created as many Dodgers fans. After the Dodgers' move to Los Angeles in the 1950s, relations were badly strained between the organization and the Latin world. Mexican Americans had been evicted from their homes in Chavez Ravine, LA—some forcibly—for well below market value so the city could sell the land for a new stadium. For a generation of working-class Mexican Americans, the Dodgers became a source of great anguish. However, that bitterness toward the Dodgers vanished during the 1981 season when Valenzuela attracted the fan base the Dodgers had tried in vain to reach for years. El Toro, as he was called, captured the imagination of the baseball world. A hero in Mexico, a legend in LA, and a phenomenon throughout the US, Valenzuela did more to change that tense political environment than anyone in the history of baseball. A new fan base flooded Dodger Stadium and ballparks around the US whenever Valenzuela pitched in a phenomenon that quickly became known as Fernandomania, which continued throughout a Dodger career that included six straight All-Star game appearances.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/771441Tue, 11 Jun 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/771441 to listen full audiobooks.

Sue Barker first walked through those famous SW19 gates aged 13 in 1969, to play in the National Schools event. She knelt down and picked some blades of grass, wrapped them up in a tissue and took them home. Her own bit of Wimbledon. What Sue didn't know then, was that every year for the next half century, she would be back in some capacity. As a junior, aged 15, as a semi-finalist and Grand-Slam winner ranked No 3 in the world, and as a broadcaster leading the BBC coverage for thirty years. And now she returns as a storyteller. Wimbledon has a magic that draws people in, players and fans. It respects tradition, but embraces the future and stays relevant. Sue goes in search of what sets this place apart. She talks to the greats of tennis, her former mentors, contemporaries on the circuit, friends and colleagues, and they tell their stories of their own triumphs and disasters, reveal how Wimbledon changed their lives, and what it has meant to them. Sue's personal history of Wimbledon is as tightly packed with stories as the courts are with blades of grass. From the most memorable matches to the fashions and trends, the famous rivalries, the upsets and the 'You Cannot Be Serious' unforgettable moments, this is a Centre Court seat on all the riveting drama that has defined British sporting summers for all of our lifetimes.

Title: The Racket: On Tour with Tennis’s Golden Generation – and the other 99% Author: Conor Niland Narrator: Conor Niland Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 53 minutes Release date: June 6, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. When Conor Niland was 16, he got the chance to hit with Serena Williams at Nick Bollettieri's famed tennis academy. Conor, the Irish junior number one, was feeling a bit homesick. Serena, also 16, already owned her own house beside the academy. Conor Niland knows what it's like when Roger Federer walks into the dressing room ('Ciao, bonjour, hello!'), and he has had the exquisitely terrible experience of facing Novak Djokovic in the world's biggest tennis stadium - while suffering from food poisoning. But he never reached the very top. The Racket is the story of pro tennis's 99%: the players who roam the globe in hope of climbing the rankings and squeaking into the Grand Slam tournaments. It brings us into a world where a few dozen super-rich players - travelling with coaches and physios - share a stage with lonely touring pros whose earnings barely cover their expenses. Painting a vivid picture of the social dynamics on tour, the economics of the game, and the shadows cast by gambling and doping, The Racket is a witty and revealing underdog's memoir and a unique look inside a fascinating hidden world. ©2024 Conor Niland (P)2024 Penguin Audio]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/736989Thu, 06 Jun 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/736989 to listen full audiobooks.

He is a three-time Cy Young award winner, the first pitcher to win National League MVP since Bob Gibson, and a surefire, first-ballot Hall of Famer. Many of his peers consider him the greatest pitcher to ever climb atop a big-league mound.  In an age when baseball became more impersonal, a sport altered by adherence to algorithms and actuarial tables, Kershaw personified the game’s lingering humanity, with his joy and suffering on display each October as he chased a championship. He pitched through pain, placing his future at risk on the game’s grandest stages. He endeared himself to teammates and foes alike with his refusal to make excuses, with his willingness to shoulder the blame when he failed. And he only further impressed them when he returned, year after year, even as his body broke down from the strain of his profession. The journey captivated fans in Los Angeles and beyond, so much so that when the Dodgers finally won a title in 2020, the baseball world exulted in his triumph.  The Last of His Kind traces Kershaw’s path from a boyhood fractured by divorce to his development as one of the most-heralded pitching prospects in Texas history to his emergence in Los Angeles as the spiritual heir to Sandy Koufax. But the book also charts Kershaw’s place in baseball’s changing landscape, as his own stubbornness butted against the game’s evolution. The story of baseball in the 21st century can be told through Kershaw’s career, from his apprenticeship with icons like Joe Torre and Greg Maddux, to his wary relationship with the implementation of analytics, to his victimhood in the 2017 sign-stealing scandal at the hands of the Houston Astros. The game has changed so much during Kershaw’s illustrious career.

An intimate, honest recollection of Griner’s time held captive in Russia. Coming Home reads as a deeply personal, publicly powerful documentation of what happened—what is still happening—to her body and mind.” —Slate On February 17, 2022, Brittney Griner arrived in Moscow ready to spend the WNBA offseason playing for the Russian women’s basketball team where she had been the centerpiece of previous championship seasons. Instead, a security checkpoint became her gateway to hell when she was arrested for mistakenly carrying under one gram of medically prescribed hash oil. Brittney’s world was violently upended in a crisis she has never spoken in detail about publicly—until now. In Coming Home, Brittney finally shares the harrowing details of her sudden arrest days before Russia invaded Ukraine; her bewilderment and isolation while navigating a foreign legal system amid her trial and sentencing; her emotional and physical anguish as the first American woman ever to endure a Russian penal colony while the #WeAreBG movement rallied for her release; the chilling prisoner swap with Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout; and her remarkable rise from hostage to global spokesperson on behalf of America’s forgotten. In haunting and vivid detail, Brittney takes readers inside the horrors of a geopolitical nightmare spanning ten months.   And yet Coming Home is more than Brittney’s journey from captivity to freedom. In an account as gripping as it is poignant, she shares how her deep love for Cherelle, her college sweetheart and wife of six years, anchored her during their greatest storm; how her family’s support pulled her back from the brink; and how hundreds of letters from friends and neighbors lent her resolve to keep fighting. Coming Home is both a story of survival and a testament to love—the bonds that brought Brittney home to her family, and at last, to herself.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/753503Tue, 07 May 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/753503 to listen full audiobooks.

The rulebook on domestic domination was rewritten as the club became the most successful in British football history. For the first time, one of Ferguson's closest aides lifts the lid on the inner workings at Carrington, as René Meulensteen, one of the game's greatest minds, shares all the stories and secrets that contributed and illuminated the most glittering managerial era in football history. Meulensteen's story begins in a provincial region of Holland; a student of the game, René explains how he fought through red tape and bureaucracy to establish himself as a coach with principles he firmly believed in, and how those visionary methods saw him land a remarkable position at the world's biggest club, overseeing the technical development of their most precious department - the youth system. Meulensteen talks about working with stars like Wayne Rooney, Rio Ferdinand and Ryan Giggs, before he was called to work with the first team on a more permanent basis. There, he enjoyed notable contributions, transforming Cristiano Ronaldo into a goal monster and featuring heavily in the move that brought Robin van Persie to Old Trafford. From being Ferguson's right-hand man to going out on his own, Meulensteen explains his philosophy in an inspiring and accessible way. Moreover, this autobiography is a compelling and addictive love-letter to the fabric of everything Manchester United stands for. The exploration and explanation of United's style of play will thrill supporters and stun analysts, as one of the sport's greatest minds finally shares his fascinating journey in football.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/765809Fri, 03 May 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/765809 to listen full audiobooks.

Doctors gave him three years to live. He was thirty-three years old. As Steve says, he is now ten years past his expiration date. His memoir is the chronicle of a remarkable life, one filled with optimism and joy, despite the trauma and pain and despair he has experienced. Writing using eye-tracking technology, Gleason covers his pre-ALS life through the highs and lows of his NFL career with the New Orleans Saints, where he made one of the most memorable plays in Saints history, leading to a victory in the first post-Katrina home game, uplifting the city, making him a hero, and reflected in a nine-foot bronze statue outside the Superdome. Then came his heartbreaking diagnosis. Gleason lost all muscle function, he now uses Stephen Hawking-like technology to communicate, and breathes with the help of a ventilator. This book captures Gleason and his wife Michel’s unmatched resilience as they reinvent their lives, refuse to succumb to despair, and face his disease realistically and existentially.

What started as a research trip turned into an intimately physical and psychological encounter with self and nationhood.Heidi was 35 at the time and didn’t love much about herself except her ability to endure grueling physical undertakings. She viewed her journey as an opportunity to fix her failures and insufficiencies. There were also some research questions she wanted to explore: Why do people live in small towns and what do they like about it? Did a bicyclist like herself bring economic benefit to the small towns she visited? What could communities do to support or invite cyclists to stay in their towns? What could cyclists do to support the communities?Along the way, she was surprised by the kindness of strangers and the emotional pinch of traveling through Wyoming where she grew up. Her journey led her through the Plains and into the Ozarks where the heat climbed to agonizing temperatures and every pedal stroke in the heat felt one closer to death. By the time she completed the trip, Heidi discovered a newfound compassion for herself and a growing love for her country. Strangers opened their hearts to her and in turn, she opened her heart to herself.And her questions began to change and mirror things many Americans are asking themselves today: How can I be okay in my own skin? What does it mean to be enough? How do I satisfy my desire to travel without harming the planet? What does it mean to love America?For many young people, it is a rite of passage to light out on an adventure to see the world and expose themselves to new experiences, but we don’t often talk about how Americans seeing America can open us to the diversity, awe, and wonder available right here in our nation. Heidi Across America offers a journey to self-love, empathy, consideration for others, and respect for the spirit of place as pathways to find connection and home.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/745470Tue, 30 Apr 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/745470 to listen full audiobooks.

To limit travel time while he trained for the Olympics an hour and a half away from home, he lived out of a crusty, old construction van, parked anywhere he could find a spot. And in 2022, after seventeen years of failure—all the crashes, injuries, and personal setbacks—he won Olympic gold at forty years old, becoming the oldest Olympic snowboard medalist in history. In this candid and affable memoir, Baumgartner details his journey from a one-stoplight town to the podium in Beijing. Tales of crisscrossing the globe on the racing circuit and competing in four Olympic Games sit comfortably alongside Baumgartner’s reflections as a single parent and his affectionate portrayal of Iron River, Michigan, the community that raised him. More than just a sports story, Gold from Iron is a tale of massive dreams, constant sacrifice, and the lessons that can be learned racing down an ice-covered course on a carbon fiber board.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/737566Tue, 02 Apr 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/737566 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: All in Stride: A Journey in Running, Courage, and the Search for the American Dream Author: Johanna Garton Narrator: Adenrele Ojo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 12 minutes Release date: April 2, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Professional distance runners Elvin Kibet and Shadrack Kipchirchir grew up in rural Kenyan villages. Though their lives began in poverty, both were driven to reach their full potential, to gain an education, and make a difference. And they would find their way to do just that through the high-pressure world of distance running. In All in Stride, Johanna Garton tells the gripping and inspiring stories of Elvin and Shadrack. Beginning with their upbringing in Kenya, Garton follows the runners through their journeys to the United States, their running for Division One universities, their blossoming romance as college students, and ultimately their service as U.S. soldiers and professional runners. Woven through the narrative is the story of Samantha Schultz, who also competed for the U.S. Army. Like Elvin and Shadrack, she struggled with several obstacles throughout her journey, including poor coaching, over training, and disordered eating, a condition that plagues so many young female athletes. More than just a running story, All in Stride takes listeners behind the scenes to explore the difficulties Elvin and Shadrack faced, including adjusting to an entirely new culture in the U.S., bigotry and intolerance, the stresses and joys of global competitions, the thrill of being a part of the race to break the two-hour marathon, joining the U.S. Army's World Class Athlete Program, and discovering the ever-changing landscape of what it means to be an American.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/755323Tue, 02 Apr 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/755323 to listen full audiobooks.

With Charlie Hustle, Pete Rose finally gets the book he deserves, and baseball fans get the book we’ve been craving, a hard-hitting, beautifully-written tale that will stand for years to come as the definitive account of one of the most fascinating figures in American sports history.”—Jonathan Eig, New York Times bestselling author of King: A Life Pete Rose is a legend. A baseball god. He compiled more hits than anyone in the history of baseball, a record he set decades ago that still stands today. He was a working-class white guy from Cincinnati who made it; less talented than tough, and rough around the edges. He was everything that America wanted and needed him to be, the American dream personified, until he wasn’t. In the 1980s, Pete Rose came to be at the center of one of the biggest scandals in baseball history. He kept secrets, ran with bookies, took on massive gambling debts, and he was magnificently, publicly cast out for betting on baseball and lying about it. The revelations that followed ruined him, changed life in Cincinnati, and forever altered the game. Charlie Hustle tells the full story of one of America’s most epic tragedies—the rise and fall of Pete Rose. Drawing on firsthand interviews with Rose himself and with his associates, as well as on investigators' reports, FBI and court records, archives, a mountain of press coverage, Keith O’Brien chronicles how Rose fell so far from being America’s “great white hope.” It is Pete Rose as we've never seen him before.

When twenty-one-year-old Tiger Woods stunned the world by winning The Masters by a mind-blowing twelve strokes, the first thing he did was embrace the three most important people in his life: his father, his mother, and Hughes Norton. At the peak of his career, agent Norton earned a million-dollar salary, flew to all corners of the world in first class, and enjoyed a lifestyle nearly as lavish as his A-list clients. That dizzying success, however, came at a high price. The seventy-hour work weeks, constant travel, and intense pressure—both from his players and their corporate partners—took Norton away from his family and ultimately led to divorce. At the same time, to protect his players and his career, he found himself making ethical and moral choices he would later regret. Soon, he realized he had made as many enemies as friends. Now, in Rainmaker, Norton offers “the most amazing ‘behind the curtain’ view ever written about the world of sports management” (Jim Nantz, CBS Sports). With exclusive insights, he discusses what it was like being Tiger’s first agent, his time representing the narcissistic Greg Norman, and shining a bright light on his sudden—and controversial—ouster as the head of IMG’s Golf Division—a juggernaut he helped build. This is an engaging and unforgettable memoir that explores golf as never before.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/723027Tue, 26 Mar 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/723027 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Real Hoosiers: Crispus Attucks High School, Oscar Robertson, and the Hidden History of Hoops Author: Jack Mccallum Narrator: Cary Hite Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 12 minutes Release date: March 5, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: The true story behind Crispus Attucks High School and the all-Black basketball team loosely depicted as the championship opponent in the beloved classic sports movie Hoosiers.   For far too long the mythology of Indiana basketball has been dominated by Hoosiers. Framed as the ultimate underdog, feel-good story, there has also long been a cultural debate surrounding the film. The Real Hoosiers sets out to illuminate the narrative that the film omits, the story of the unheralded Crispus Attucks Tigers, playing the game at the highest level in the 1950s in a racially divided Indiana. After a crushing loss to Milan High School in the 1954 semifinal, which was the game that the final scenes in Hoosiers are based on, Attucks went on to win back-to-back Indiana state championships. That team was led by a young Oscar Robertson and coached by Ray Crowe, who fully recognized the seemingly insurmountable challenges of playing basketball in a state that was a bastion for not only the game but also the Ku Klux Klan. Veteran sportswriter and the bestselling author of Dream Team, Jack McCallum, pulls back the curtain on that history, which is rich, far beyond the basketball court.

Title: The Real Hoosiers: Crispus Attucks High School, Oscar Robertson, and the Hidden History of Hoops Author: Jack Mccallum Narrator: Cary Hite Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 12 minutes Release date: March 5, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: The true story behind Crispus Attucks High School and the all-Black basketball team loosely depicted as the championship opponent in the beloved classic sports movie Hoosiers.   For far too long the mythology of Indiana basketball has been dominated by Hoosiers. Framed as the ultimate underdog, feel-good story, there has also long been a cultural debate surrounding the film. The Real Hoosiers sets out to illuminate the narrative that the film omits, the story of the unheralded Crispus Attucks Tigers, playing the game at the highest level in the 1950s in a racially divided Indiana. After a crushing loss to Milan High School in the 1954 semifinal, which was the game that the final scenes in Hoosiers are based on, Attucks went on to win back-to-back Indiana state championships. That team was led by a young Oscar Robertson and coached by Ray Crowe, who fully recognized the seemingly insurmountable challenges of playing basketball in a state that was a bastion for not only the game but also the Ku Klux Klan. Veteran sportswriter and the bestselling author of Dream Team, Jack McCallum, pulls back the curtain on that history, which is rich, far beyond the basketball court. The Real Hoosiers replaces a lacuna in the history of Indiana while dissecting the myths and lore of Hoosier hoops; placing the game in the context of migration, segregation, and integration; and enhancing our understanding of this country’s struggle for civil rights.]]>185cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/kingdom-on-fire-kareem-wooden-walton-and-the-turbulent-days-of-the-ucla-basketball-dynasty-by-scott-howard-cooper--65127923https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/717414 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Kingdom on Fire: Kareem, Wooden, Walton, and the Turbulent Days of the UCLA Basketball Dynasty Author: Scott Howard-Cooper Narrator: Feodor Chin Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 43 minutes Release date: March 5, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: In the tradition of Blood in the Garden and Three-Ring Circus comes a bold history of the iconic UCLA Bruins championship teams led by legendary coach John Wooden, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Bill Walton—set against the turmoil of American culture in the 1960s and ’70s. Few basketball dynasties have reigned supreme like the UCLA Bruins did over college basketball from 1965–1975 (seven consecutive titles, three perfect records, an eighty-eight-game winning streak that remains unmatched). At the center of this legendary franchise were the now-iconic players Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Bill Walton, naturally reserved personalities who became outspoken giants when it came to race and the Vietnam War. These generational talents were led by John Wooden, a conservative counterweight to his star players whose leadership skills would transcend the game after his retirement. But before the three of them became history, they would have to make it—together. Los Angeles native and longtime sportswriter for the Los Angeles Times, Scott Howard-Cooper draws on more than a hundred interviews and extensive access to many of the principal figures, including Wooden’s family, to deliver a rich narrative that reveals the turmoil at the heart of this storied college basketball program. Making the eye-opening connections between UCLA and the Nixon administration, Ronald Reagan, Muhammad Ali, and others, Kingdom on Fire puts the UCLA basketball team’s political involvement and influence in full relief for the first time. “Perceptive and exciting, this is a slam dunk for college hoops fans” (Publishers Weekly).]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/717414Tue, 05 Mar 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/717414 to listen full audiobooks.

Gedanken in der Nachspielzeit: Nach Beendigung seiner aktiven Laufbahn legt der Profifußballer Nils Petersen seine faszinierende Lebensgeschichte vor. Darin lesen wir, wie dieser talentierte Stürmer aus dem beschaulichen Wernigerode den steinigen Weg in den Profifußball gemeistert hat und als bester Joker der Bundesliga-Geschichte die Schuhe an den berühmten Nagel hängt. Das Hörbuch beschreibt auf beeindruckende Weise Nils Petersens Laufbahn von seinen Anfängen über die Stationen FC Carl Zeiss Jena, FC Energie Cottbus, FC Bayern München, SV Werder Bremen bis hin zu seinen Jahren beim SC Freiburg. Seine Karriere ist ein inspirierendes Beispiel für Leidenschaft, harte Arbeit, Geduld und Durchhaltevermögen. In seinem 'Bank-Geheimnis' gewährt uns Petersen einen spannenden Einblick in die nicht immer glamouröse Welt eines Profifußballers: Er erzählt auf intelligente, charmant-witzige, aber auch manchmal ernste Art nicht nur von seinem sportlichen Werdegang und seinen Erfolgen, sondern schildert darüber hinaus den Prozess seiner persönlichen Reifung zum Profi, sein privates Umfeld, offenbart die Werte, die ihn leiten, und wie er damit umgeht, für viele ein Vorbild zu sein. Sein Buch vermittelt einen seltenen und wunderbar selbstironischen Blick hinter die Kulissen der Bundesliga. Das Hörbuch beweist erneut, was seine Fans schon wissen: Seine authentische Art und seine Bodenständigkeit machen ihn zusammen mit seinem sozialen Engagement in vielen Bereichen zu einem Sympathieträger weit über die Grenzen des Fußballs hinaus. 'Bank-Geheimnis' ist das bewegende Selbstporträt eines bemerkenswerten Sportlers und Menschen, ein 'Dankeschön' an alle, die ihn begleitet haben, und ein absolutes Must-Have für alle Fußballfans. Besonders für jene, die ihm auf seinen Stationen in Ost und West begegnet sind, zumal in Freiburg, wo er als 'Fußballgott' Kultstatus erlangte.

On January 20, 2003, a thunderous crack rang out and a 100-foot-wide tide of snow barreled down the Northern Selkirk Mountains in British Columbia, Canada. More than a dozen skiers and snowboarders were thrust down the mountain, buried beneath several tons of rock-hard snow and ice in the Durrand Glacier Avalanche. A heroic search and rescue ensued. Among those buried was Craig Kelly—“the Michael Jordan of snowboarding”—a man who had propelled the sport into the mainstream before walking away from competitions, to rekindle his passion in the untamed alpine wilds of North America The Darkest White is the story of Craig Kelly’s life, a heartbreaking but extraordinary and inspiring odyssey of a latchkey kid whose athletic prowess and innovations would revolutionize winter sports, take him around the globe, and push him into ever more extreme environments that would ultimately take his life. It is also a definitive, immersive account of snowboarding and the cultural movement that exploded around it, growing the sport from minor Gen X cult hobby to Olympic centerpiece and a billion-dollar business full of feuds and rivalries. Finally, The Darkest White is a mesmerizing, cautionary portrait of the mountains, of the allure and the glory they offer, and of the avalanches they unleash with unforgiving fury. “Eric Blehm took on this biography as I imagine Craig Kelly took on the halfpipe. He studied it, chose his line, and pulled everything off—even tough parts—with grace and style. It’s not just a terrific story of an amazing life, not just the origin story of an entire sport, but a riveting disaster narrative that builds tension masterfully. The Darkest White grabbed me and didn’t let go.''—Jack Carr, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Terminal List series]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/682950Tue, 27 Feb 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/682950 to listen full audiobooks.

He is considered by many the greatest basketball player ever produced by the hoops-crazy state of Kentucky. In two years at the University of Kentucky, he scored over 1,000 points, led the Wildcats to a Sweet Sixteen appearance and was nicknamed “King Rex.” The first player ever drafted by the Charlotte Hornets, he spent twelve seasons in the NBA, dazzling in dunk contests and sinking one of the most memorable buzzer-beaters in league history. But by the end of his career, Rex Chapman was harboring a destructive secret. Years before America’s opioid crisis would become national news, Chapman developed a dependency on Vicodin and Oxycontin, ultimately ingesting fifty painkillers a day. In addition, he developed a severe gambling addiction, once nearly losing $400,000 at a Las Vegas blackjack table. All this would cost him his family as well as most of the $40 million fortune he’d made in basketball, leaving him to live in his car and shoplift to support his addictions. Only when he was arrested—and his mugshot made national news—did he finally commit to getting clean.

Title: Calvin Peete: Golf's Forgotten Star Author: Gordon Hobson Narrator: Jaime Lincoln Smith Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 29 minutes Release date: February 14, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: His story is unprecedented in the world of golf. Born to a family of migrant laborers, Calvin Peete dropped out of school in the eighth grade, went to work picking crops, first swung a golf club at the age of twenty-three—and rose to the top of the PGA. In Calvin Peete: Golf's Forgotten Star, Gordon Hobson tells for the first time Peete's incredible story. Hobson recounts how, when Peete joined the lily-white PGA tour in 1976, he stood out from the competition in more ways than one. Peete wasn't raised in country clubs and didn't learn the game at prestigious golf universities. He had a permanently bent left elbow and practiced endless hours in a public park to develop one of the most accurate swings in the history of golf. He endured years of futility and despair, but, eventually, he emerged as the best player on the Tour from 1982–86. Calvin Peete's story is inspiring, but it also reveals the struggles many Black golfers endured even after the Caucasian-only clause was removed from the PGA's bylaws. He may have won twelve championships, played on the US Ryder Cup team twice, and won the prestigious Vardon Award, but the road to success wasn't easy. Calvin Peete: Golf's Forgotten Star shows how, even without the advantages some people are born into, one can find success through hard work, determination, and fortitude.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/714182Wed, 14 Feb 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/714182 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: My Fighting Family: Borders and Bloodlines and the Battles That Made Us Author: Morgan Campbell Narrator: Morgan Campbell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 44 minutes Release date: January 23, 2024 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: The debut memoir from award-winning journalist Morgan Campbell: an incredible history of a family’s battles across generations, a hilarious and emotional coming-of-age story, and a powerful reckoning with what it means to be Black in Canada—particularly when you have strong American roots. Morgan Campbell comes from “a fighting family,” a connection and clash that reaches back to the south side of Chicago in the 1930s. His father’s and mother’s families were both part of the Great Migration from the U.S. rural south to the industrial north, but a history of perceived slights and social-class differences solidified a great feud that only intensified over the course of the century after the families came together in marriage and split up across the border. Morgan’s maternal grandfather, Claude Jones—a legendary grudge-holder, as well was an accomplished musician, peer of Oscar Peterson, and fixture of the Chicago jazz scene—was recruited to play some shows in Toronto, fell in love with the city, and eventually settled in Canada in the mid-1960s, paving the way for Morgan’s parents to join him amid the tumult of the Vietnam War and the Civil Rights movement. Morgan’s paternal grandmother, Granny Mary, however, remained stateside, a distance her schemes and resentments would only grow to fill.  That fighting spirit wasn’t limited to the family’s own squabbles, though—it animated the way every generation moved through the world. From battling back as a group against white supremacist newcomers who violently resisted Black neighbours, to Morgan’s pre-teen mother burnishing her own legend by cold-cocking some racist loudmouth bullies, the lesson was clear: sometimes words weren’t enough. In Canada, the Campbells started a family of their own, but the tensions between in-laws never ceased, even as divorce and disease threatened the very foundations of the life they’d built. Bearing witness to all of this was young Morgan, an aspiring writer, budding star athlete, and slow-jam scholar, whose deep American roots landed him an outsider status that led to its own schoolyard scraps and exposed the profound gap between Canada’s utopian multicultural reputation and the very different reality.  Having grown up bouncing between these disparate identities and nationalities, real or imagined—Black and Canadian, Canadian and American, Campbell and Jones—My Fighting Family is a witty, wise, rich, and soulful illumination of the journey to find clarity in all that conflict.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/680038Tue, 23 Jan 2024 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/680038 to listen full audiobooks.

Black jockeys like Murphy were at the top of the most popular sport in America at the end of the nineteenth century. They were internationally famous, the first African American superstar athletes—and with wins in three Kentucky Derbies and countless other prestigious races, Murphy was the greatest of them all.

Title: Charles Leclerc: A Biography Author: Adam Hay-Nicholls Narrator: Luis Soto Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 34 minutes Release date: December 14, 2023 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: From acclaimed journalist Adam Hay-Nicholls, the very first biography of rising star Charles Leclerc. Few of the drivers on the F1 grid have the racing pedigree of Charles Leclerc. Widely regarded as one of the sport's hottest prospects, he was crowned F3 and then F2 champion in back-to-back seasons before he made his F1 debut with Sauber in 2018. Now firmly established as Ferrari's great hope, following in the footsteps of legends Alberto Ascari, Niki Lauda and Michael Schumacher, Leclerc has his eyes set on becoming world champion. Born in Monaco to a family of comparatively modest means, Leclerc remembers playing with toy cars on a friend's balcony as the best drivers in the world whizzed around the Monte Carlo circuit on the streets below. This early experience inspired him to get behind the wheel, encouraged by his father Hervé, and so began his meteoric rise in the sport. Along the way, he lost his father, his godfather and his best friend - all racing drivers - and this gave Leclerc the inner steel to become a winner. Writer Adam Hay-Nicholls, who has spent much of his career in the Formula One paddock, provides the inside track on this rising star, recounting how he has taken the racing world by storm. And as Leclerc's Ferrari is beginning to fire on all cylinders, will he beat his old rival and adversary Max Verstappen to the world title?]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/675722Thu, 14 Dec 2023 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/675722 to listen full audiobooks.

La nutrición conductual es un campo de la ciencia que estudia la relación entre la alimentación y el comportamiento.

Sueño y nutrición Existe mucha evidencia científica que demuestra que el sueño y la nutrición están estrechamente relacionados. Cuando dormimos poco tendemos a comer más, especialmente alimentos ricos en azúcar, grasas y carbohidratos. Esto se debe a que la falta de sueño altera los niveles de hormonas que regulan el apetito, como la leptina y la grelina. La leptina es una hormona que suprime el apetito, mientras que la grelina es una hormona que estimula el apetito. Cuando dormimos poco, los niveles de leptina disminuyen y los de grelina aumentan, lo que hace que comamos más.

Se están desarrollando nuevas tecnologías todo el tiempo que tienen el potencial de cambiar la forma en que comemos, desde la forma en que cultivamos los alimentos hasta la forma en que los preparamos y consumimos. Una de las áreas de innovación más prometedoras es la agricultura vertical. La agricultura vertical es un tipo de agricultura que cultiva alimentos en interiores utilizando luz artificial y agua reciclada. Esto permite que los alimentos se cultiven en cualquier lugar, independientemente del clima o el suelo. La agricultura vertical también es mucho más eficiente en términos de recursos que la agricultura tradicional, lo que puede ayudar a reducir el impacto ambiental de la producción de alimentos. Otra área de innovación es la impresión 3D de alimentos. La impresión 3D de alimentos permite personalizar los alimentos según las necesidades y preferencias individuales. Esto puede ayudar a mejorar la salud y el bienestar de las personas, así como a reducir el desperdicio de alimentos. La tecnología también se está utilizando para desarrollar nuevos alimentos que sean más nutritivos y sepan mejor. Por ejemplo, la biotecnología se está utilizando para desarrollar alimentos enriquecidos con vitaminas y minerales, o que tienen propiedades antioxidantes o antiinflamatorias. Además de cambiar la forma en que cultivamos y consumimos alimentos, la tecnología también está cambiando la forma en que interactuamos con los alimentos. Por ejemplo, las aplicaciones de acondicionamiento físico y nutrición pueden ayudarnos a monitorear nuestra ingesta de alimentos y nutrientes, y los asistentes virtuales pueden ayudarnos a cocinar y preparar comidas. En el futuro, es probable que la tecnología tenga un impacto aún mayor en nuestra relación con los alimentos. Las nuevas tecnologías nos permitirán tener acceso a alimentos más saludables, sabrosos y personalizados. Esto puede conducir a una población más sana y feliz. Los beneficios de la tecnología para la nutrición Hay muchos beneficios potenciales de la tecnología para la nutrición. Por ejemplo, la tecnología se puede utilizar para: Mejorar la eficiencia de la producción de alimentos Reducir el desperdicio de alimentos Personaliza la comida según las necesidades y preferencias individuales. Desarrollar nuevos alimentos que sean más nutritivos y sabrosos. Hacer que los alimentos sean más accesibles y asequibles Educar a las personas sobre la importancia de una alimentación saludable.

Las nuevas tecnologías nos permitirán tener acceso a alimentos más saludables, sabrosos y personalizados. Esto puede conducir a una población más sana y feliz. Estas son algunas de las tendencias que podemos esperar ver en el futuro de la nutrición: Mayor popularidad de los alimentos cultivados local y orgánicamente Crecimiento del mercado de alimentos funcionales, que son alimentos enriquecidos con nutrientes.

Title: Watford Forever: How Graham Taylor and Elton John Saved a Football Club, a Town and Each Other Author: Elton John, John Preston Narrator: Alex Jennings Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 13 minutes Release date: November 16, 2023 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. An unforgettable British underdog story from one of our greatest narrative nonfiction writers, John Preston, and the international musical icon and bestselling author, Sir Elton John. Britain in the 1970s was beset by unrest and unemployment, as inflation soared, fuel was scarce, and hooliganism was on the rise. And for Watford FC, the outlook was even gloomier. Rundown and rat-infested, Watford were an ailing side with holes in their kit and barely enough fans to fill a stand. Of the 92 clubs in the Football League, spread across four divisions, Watford were in 92nd place. Meanwhile, Elton John was the most successful rockstar in the world. With six-inch platforms, spangled jumpsuits, and peroxide hair, he was glamorous, gay, and seemingly a world away from the council house in Pinner where he had supported Watford FC as a child. Many assumed he would move to America. Instead, he bought the football club. Watford Forever is the remarkable story of Elton John's ownership of Watford FC and its transformational journey to the top of the First Division under iconic manager Graham Taylor. Perhaps most remarkably, four of the same players who had been written off as has-beens went with them all the way from the bottom to the top. Inspiring and infectiously funny, this is a tribute to football's unlikeliest friendship as Elton John and Taylor, a straight-talking former fullback with a love of Vera Lynn, beat the odds and their personal demons to save a club and a community. Immersed in the grime and glamour of '70s Britain, Watford Forever is one of sport's great underdog stories and a love letter to the beautiful game. ©2023 Elton John & John Preston (P)2023 Penguin Audio]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/707270Thu, 16 Nov 2023 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/707270 to listen full audiobooks.

Of the 92 clubs in the Football League, spread across four divisions, Watford were in 92nd place. Meanwhile, Elton John was the most successful rockstar in the world. With six-inch platforms, spangled jumpsuits, and peroxide hair, he was glamorous, gay, and seemingly a world away from the council house in Pinner where he had supported Watford FC as a child. Many assumed he would move to America. Instead, he bought the football club. Watford Forever is the remarkable story of Elton John's ownership of Watford FC and its transformational journey to the top of the First Division under iconic manager Graham Taylor. Perhaps most remarkably, four of the same players who had been written off as has-beens went with them all the way from the bottom to the top. Inspiring and infectiously funny, this is a tribute to football's unlikeliest friendship as Elton John and Taylor, a straight-talking former fullback with a love of Vera Lynn, beat the odds and their personal demons to save a club and a community. Immersed in the grime and glamour of '70s Britain, Watford Forever is one of sport's great underdog stories and a love letter to the beautiful game. ©2023 Elton John & John Preston (P)2023 Penguin Audio]]>305cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/i-am-weak-i-am-strong-building-a-resilient-faith-for-a-resilient-life-by-jay-hewitt--65127943https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/676009 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Haaland: The incredible story behind the world’s greatest striker Author: Lars Sivertsen Narrator: Lars Sivertsen Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 27 minutes Release date: November 2, 2023 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. The man who can't stop scoring goals for fun Norwegian striker Erling Haaland is only in his first season at Manchester City and yet he has taken the Premier League - and world football stage - by storm. At the halfway point in the season, in just 20 games, the distinctive star has scored 25 goals, beating last year's PL golden boot winners Son Heung-Min and Mo Salah. He is well on his way to beating the record of 34 goals in a single season - a record no one has beaten in 27 years. Known for his speed, strength and goal scoring, Haaland is a fascinating character who doesn't fit the mould of a modern-day professional footballer. Lars Sivertsen's biography will follow Haaland from his early life in Norway as the son of former City player Alife, and his incredible track-record as a scoring sensation, becoming his hometown club's top scorer at only 18 and shortly after becoming regarded as one of Europe's best strikers. Sivertsen provides an insight into where Haaland has come from and gets to the heart of what makes him tick. ©2023 Lars Sivertsen (P)2023 Penguin Audio]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/665613Thu, 02 Nov 2023 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/665613 to listen full audiobooks.

Gurock Narrator: Joe Barrett Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 59 minutes Release date: October 31, 2023 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: For close to half a century after World War II, Marty Glickman was the voice of New York sports. His distinctive style of broadcasting, on television and especially on the radio, garnered for him legions of fans who would not miss his play-by-play accounts. His vocabulary and method of broadcasting left an indelible mark on the industry, and many of today's most famous sportscasters were Glickman disciples. In Marty Glickman, Jeffrey S. Gurock showcases the life of this important contributor to American popular culture. In addition to the stories of how he became a master of American sports airwaves, Marty Glickman has also been remembered as a Jewish athlete who, a decade before he sat in front of a microphone, was cynically barred from running in a signature track event in the 1936 Olympics by anti-Semitic American Olympic officials. This lively biography details this traumatic event and explores not only how he coped for decades with that painful rejection but also examines how he dealt with other anti-Semitic and cultural obstacles that threatened to stymie his career.

From the lush fields of his boyhood in Jamaica, to the basketball courts of Oakville, where he came of age in one of Canada’s most thriving cultural mosaics, to his sprint toward double Olympic gold for Canada in Atlanta in 1996, Donovan Bailey got a long way on natural talent. But he also learned that in the bureaucratic world of Canadian sports, an athlete who didn't come up in the system needed to take charge of his fate if he was going to become the world’s best. As he ascended from outsider to dominant athlete, others didn’t always understand the rigour at work behind Bailey’s confident demeanour. He’d learned from watching Muhammad Ali that a champion needed to act like a champion. But media grew fixated on the sprinter’s immodesty, the likes of which they never saw from Canadian athletes, especially track athletes in the wake of the Ben Johnson doping scandal at Seoul in 1988. Bailey was having none of it, and when he called out Canada's subtle racism and contradicted the prevailing idea most Canadians had of their country, he left in his wake a media uproar and cracked wide open the nation’s moral complacency.      In addition to his unforgettable 100-metre and 4x100 relay gold-medal sprints in Atlanta, Bailey's track career was a litany of records and rare accomplishments, including his audacious 1997 race in Toronto's SkyDome against American 200-metre Olympic champion Michael Johnson to determine who was really the world’s fastest man. There was no disputing the result.      Bailey had been coached in success before he was seriously coached in athletics. Following the lead of his father, a machinist-turned-real estate investor, Bailey became a millionaire by the age of 21, an experience he continues to draw on as an entrepreneur and philanthropist.

The incredible story of [Man United] laid bare in new book' - Daily Mail 'A gripping tale, full of insight. Blackhurst is an enormously talented writer' – City A.M. From Chris Blackhurst, the former Editor of the Independent, comes The World's Biggest Cash Machine, a gripping and tightly reported account of how the Glazers, owners of Manchester United, became the most maligned figures in the Premier League, and how they changed the beautiful game forever. Manchester United’s supporters span the globe and cross generations. But, with few exceptions, they are united in their anger with the American family who bought their club in 2005, plunging it into record levels of debt.

One of only three fighters from the British Isles to be named the Ring magazine Fighter of the Year, he has headlined sellout world championship bouts on both sides of the Atlantic, winning multiple world titles in the process. His dedicated army of fans have traversed the globe to be ringside throughout it all.

In this captivating autobiography, Frampton reveals the most personal aspects of being a fighter: the fears and doubts, the exhilaration and devastation, the friendships and animosities. He also recounts for the first time his high-profile, acrimonious split with Barry McGuigan in devastating and revealing detail. Frampton speaks openly and passionately, not only about boxing, but about his country, how far it has come and the problems it faces.

Longlisted for the Indie Book Awards 2024 Nedd Brockmann isn’t afraid to dream big. Fresh after running fifty marathons in fifty days, the twenty-three-year-old had an idea: a 4000-kilometre run across Australia, averaging 100 kilometres per day with the aim of completing it in the fastest known time of 43 days. He wasn’t chasing fame or public recognition. He just wanted to test his limits and raise a million dollars for homelessness in the process. Most said he was crazy, others claimed it couldn’t be done. But those who know Nedd knew never to doubt him. They understood that this is someone who will do whatever it takes to finish what he started, and that when he commits his mind to something, he always gets it done. Understanding the mindset of someone predisposed to such feats of voluntary suffering has been nearly impossible – until now. With his trademark humour and unfiltered style, Nedd recalls the lessons learned on sporting fields that cultivated discipline, the setbacks that tested his resolve, and the relationships that proved most important of all: those who instilled the importance of hard work, of never giving up, and to always give back generously.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/694771Tue, 03 Oct 2023 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/694771 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Troublemaker: A Memoir of Sexism, Retaliation, and the Fight They Didn't See Coming Author: Lisa Cornwell Narrator: Lisa Cornwell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 16 minutes Release date: September 19, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Lisa Cornwell never shied away from standing up to bullies. When she was a freshman in college, she saw a man hit a woman in the face with a closed fist while a paralyzed crowd stood by and watched. Seconds later, she took matters into her own hands—with a 3-iron from her golf bag. This impulse crystallized years later when Cornwell publicly spoke out against the misogynistic culture she and others experienced at the hands of their employer, Golf Channel/NBCUniversal. Throughout her time at the network, she challenged the toxic environment and was quickly branded a 'troublemaker'—a label that often accompanies women who refuse to play by an antiquated set of rules. In this authentic and unreserved memoir, which includes a powerful foreword from Hillary Rodham Clinton, Cornwell takes listeners inside the boys' club of sports media and reveals the way powerful corporations cover up wrongdoings. For her, what began with retaliation exploded into a public smear campaign and, ultimately, her dismissal. She also shares the unlikely yet formative touchstones of her life: a close friendship with Tiger Woods when both were nationally ranked junior golfers; her cousin, Bill Clinton, being elected President of the United States; and the private demons she battled as a young adult that almost cost her everything.

He’s been called reckless. All his life, he’s done things differently. Now, with his trademark candour, Rassie talks openly about his adventures and misadventures at the pinnacle of world rugby, both as player and coach. From his role in Nick Mallett's record-breaking Springbok team of the late 1990s, to the devastating injuries that cut short his playing career, to his revolutionary coaching career, Rassie is an essential window into one of the most successful figures of modern rugby. When his teammates relaxed, Rassie preferred to watch hours of video and devise winning strategies. His coaching methods were initially laughed off – before being eagerly adopted when their success proved undeniable.

He’s been called reckless. All his life, he’s done things differently. Now, with his trademark candour, Rassie talks openly about his adventures and misadventures at the pinnacle of world rugby, both as player and coach. From his role in Nick Mallett's record-breaking Springbok team of the late 1990s, to the devastating injuries that cut short his playing career, to his revolutionary coaching career, Rassie is an essential window into one of the most successful figures of modern rugby. When his teammates relaxed, Rassie preferred to watch hours of video and devise winning strategies. His coaching methods were initially laughed off – before being eagerly adopted when their success proved undeniable. He fought the rugby establishment at the Stormers, and later earned the grudging respect of Irish fans at Munster. Most crucially, Rassie talks about his greatest contribution to South African rugby: appointing its first black captain, Siya Kolisi, without much fanfare or controversy.

She was a glamorous worldwide celebrity, having that year won singles, women's doubles, and mixed doubles tennis titles at both Wimbledon and the US Open, then an unprecedented feat. Yet today one of America's greatest female athletes and most charismatic characters is largely forgotten. Queen of the Court places her back on center stage. Given a tennis racket at thirteen, she took to the sport immediately, rising to the top with a powerful, aggressive serve-and-volley style unseen in women's tennis. A champion at the height of her fame in the late 1930s, she also designed a clothing line and sang as a performer. World War II derailed her amateur tennis career, but her life off the court was even more eventful. Perhaps her greatest legacy lies in her successful efforts to persuade the all-white US Lawn Tennis Association to change its policy and allow African American star Althea Gibson to compete for the US championship in 1950, thereby breaking tennis's color barrier. In two memoirs, Marble showed herself to be an at-times unreliable narrator of her own life, which Madeleine Blais navigates skillfully, especially Marble's claims of having been a spy during World War II.

Title: Gibby: Tales of a Baseball Lifer Author: Greg Oliver, John Gibbons Narrator: John Gibbons Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 20 minutes Release date: August 8, 2023 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Over eleven years and two separate managerial stints with the Toronto Blue Jays, John Gibbons endeared himself to fans with his folksy manner and his frequent battles with umpires: 'Here comes Gibby!' Winning helped too. Under Gibbons's management, the Jays made the American League Championship Series in 2015, ending a twenty-two-year playoff drought; then they did it again in 2016. Along the way the team defied odds, won over a nation, and with one flip of a bat produced one of the most iconic moments in MLB history. Now, in his memoir, Gibby shares the story: an on-field career that didn't pan out, but a managing career that did . . . eventually. Raised in a military family, he played his first competitive baseball in Newfoundland and Labrador, and, with the family now in San Antonio, Texas, Gibby, a catcher, developed into a first-round draft pick of the New York Mets. While Gibbons only played eighteen major league games, he did earn a World Series ring as the 1986 Mets bullpen catcher and knew all the characters from that team, including Doc Gooden, Darryl Strawberry, Lenny Dykstra, and Gary Carter. In 1990, Gibby began his journey as a coach and manager. An old teammate, J. P.

Title: Gibby: Tales of a Baseball Lifer Author: Greg Oliver, John Gibbons Narrator: John Gibbons Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 20 minutes Release date: August 8, 2023 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Over eleven years and two separate managerial stints with the Toronto Blue Jays, John Gibbons endeared himself to fans with his folksy manner and his frequent battles with umpires: 'Here comes Gibby!' Winning helped too. Under Gibbons's management, the Jays made the American League Championship Series in 2015, ending a twenty-two-year playoff drought; then they did it again in 2016. Along the way the team defied odds, won over a nation, and with one flip of a bat produced one of the most iconic moments in MLB history. Now, in his memoir, Gibby shares the story: an on-field career that didn't pan out, but a managing career that did . . . eventually. Raised in a military family, he played his first competitive baseball in Newfoundland and Labrador, and, with the family now in San Antonio, Texas, Gibby, a catcher, developed into a first-round draft pick of the New York Mets. While Gibbons only played eighteen major league games, he did earn a World Series ring as the 1986 Mets bullpen catcher and knew all the characters from that team, including Doc Gooden, Darryl Strawberry, Lenny Dykstra, and Gary Carter. In 1990, Gibby began his journey as a coach and manager. An old teammate, J. P. Ricciardi, hired him to work with the Jays, and he moved his way up the ranks and into the hearts of baseball fans.]]>1805cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/lando-norris-a-biography-by-ben-hunt--65127965https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/682551 to listen full audiobooks.

After signing as a junior driver for McLaren in 2017, he has since asserted himself as the team's brightest talent and an aspiring world champion.

Title: Against the Water: A surfing champion's inspirational journey to Olympic glory Author: Owen Wright Narrator: Barton Welch Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 20 minutes Release date: August 1, 2023 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: The gut-wrenching story of how one of Australia’s finest surfers overcame a brain injury and despair to win an Olympic medal. On the morning of 10 December 2015, Owen Wright entered the water at Pipeline, Hawaii, determined to become a world champion. But after being pounded by a set of monstrous waves, he ended up fighting for life and facing extensive brain trauma. In this inspirational memoir, Wright chronicles the events leading up to that fateful day, as well as the months and years that followed as he battled to regain basic functioning, and eventually the capacity to compete again at the apex of surfing. Against the Water carries the reader back to Wright’s boyhood in the tiny town of Culburra, where his father, determined to raise champions, turned family life into a kind of boot camp. While eccentric, his father’s methods bore fruit: the Wrights of Culburra would become Australian surfing royalty. Owen’s story lays bare the complex relationship with his father – the adoration, the fight for independence, the fallings out, and the reconciliations. Told in a spare, intimate style, Against the Water is the moving account of an athlete who refused to accept that his best days were behind him and raises fundamental questions around family and competition. What, ultimately, is our duty to our children? At what point does bravery become folly? And how much should we sacrifice for the sake of another? ‘Owen was a childhood phenom who grew into the ultimate family man. In between this transition, he took on the world, charged crazy waves, suffered a huge brain injury, and finished off with the all-time sporting comeback!’ Mick Fanning, three-time world champion surfer   ‘Whatever it is that Owen is getting himself into, he seems to do it with little to no fear and a massive smile on his face. He’s an inspirational guy, to put it lightly. Owen is one special human!’ Liam Hemsworth, actor   ‘Owen Wright has to be the most inspiring person I’ve ever met. His story is one of a childhood prodigy, to facing a near-death experience, to Australian hero . . . This book will inspire and motivate anyone who has had to face adversity whilst following their dreams.’ Kita Alexander, singer-songwriter   ‘[A] true fighter’s spirit!' Luke Rockhold, UFC middleweight champion, two-time jiu-jitsu world champion, three-time strikeforce middleweight champion]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/673813Tue, 01 Aug 2023 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/673813 to listen full audiobooks.

F. Howes, read by the Stoltman Brothers with exclusive audio content When Loch Morlich freezes over, we cut a hole in the ice and jump in… Tom “The Albatross” and Luke “the Highland Oak” Stoltman are the world's strongest brothers. Between them, they've won everything there is to win in the mighty world of Strongman. Tom can deadlift a 430kg bar to hip height, equivalent to about seven washing machines. Luke isn't far behind. Yet for the Stoltmans, being strong is about more than pure muscle. It's about overcoming adversity. And it's about honouring their biggest fan: their mother, who died in 2016 leaving the family devastated. But they've also transcended the sport, not least through launching the hugely successful online Stoltman Strength Academy. Through it all, they've stayed true to their roots in the Highlands of Scotland, giving back to their community, their family, and each other. But it wasn't always like this.

How did two lads from Invergordon conquer the world? Simple. They started lifting. In their astonishing autobiography, Tom and Luke Stoltman are going to show you how to lift. How to lift the lid on life with autism. How to lift yourself out of the darkness of bereavement. How to lift the trophy at the World's Strongest Man.

But behind the scenes Martin was in a losing battle, unable to express her true sexual identity and struggling to survive sexual and domestic abuse at the hands of her husband. In Fighting for Survival: My Journey through Boxing Fame, Abuse, Murder, and Resurrection, Christy Martin recounts her harrowing yet inspiring story.

Bienvenidos al espectáculo de la NFL 100 yardas es la medida oficial de un campo de fútbol americano. Un rectángulo de césped dividido en secciones que señalan el camino a la gloria. En 100 yardas caben pasión y emoción, victoria y derrota, épica y tragedia... y 100 historias imprescindibles como las que reúne este libro. La pachanga que descubrió a los Patriots quién era Tom Brady; la rodilla en tierra de Kaepernick, icono político ya universal; el mejor catch de la historia; la eclosión de Patrick Mahomes o personalidades como Whitney Houston, Mohamed Ali y John F. Kennedy se entremezclan en estas páginas con los rocambolescos viajes de Los Cuatro Jinetes a cada Super Bowl. Sin olvidar historias de bandas callejeras, misiones de navy seals, descensos a los infiernos... Un magnífico retrato de Estados Unidos a través de su deporte estrella. Javi Gómez (Madrid, 1978). Periodista y publicista, es un todoterreno de la comunicación que lo mismo habla de deporte que de política, y con experiencia en Francia, España e Italia. Cambió el periodismo por la publicidad y es el chico rebelde de 100yardas. Implacable en sus juicios, pone los motes, gana las apuestas y es el mayor enemigo de los quarterbacks de sistema. Luis Jones (Barcelona, 1967). Leyenda del fútbol americano patrio y cinco veces MVP de la liga con los Boxers de Barcelona, ahora es especialista en comunicación corporativa y, sobre todo, la sonrisa de 100yardas. Caballeroso, cercano y siempre buscando una excusa para comerse un postre, Jones es quien mejor conoce las aficiones de los equipos NFL en España... y las «sensaciones de campo». José Antonio Ponseti (Barcelona, 1965). El hombre que trajo la NFL a España. Ni más ni menos. Periodista deportivo de amplia trayectoria, se enamoró de este deporte en Estados Unidos, donde años después, se convirtió en una estrella de la radio. Voz del fútbol en España, nada le gusta más que un partido de sus Miami Dolphins. Bueno, sí, cualquier lío de 100 yardas. Lleva más de treinta Super Bowls. Iker Sagasti (San Sebastián, 1981). Lo sabe todo. Y de todos. Periodista de radio, versátil y siempre con una sonrisa, es el chico de los datos y el análisis profundo.

But Malcolm X, the most famous minister in the Nation of Islam, saw the potential in Clay, not just for boxing greatness, but as a means of spreading the Nation’s message. The two became fast friends, keeping their interactions secret from the press for fear of jeopardizing Clay’s career. Clay began living a double life—a patriotic “good negro” in public, and a radical reformer behind the scenes. Soon, however, their friendship would sour, with disastrous and far-reaching consequences. Based on previously untapped sources, from Malcolm’s personal papers to FBI records, Blood Brothers is the first book to offer an in-depth portrait of this complex bond. An extraordinary narrative of love and deep affection, as well as deceit, betrayal, and violence, this story is a window into the public and private lives of two of our greatest national icons, and the tumultuous period in American history that they helped to shape.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/669578Tue, 14 Mar 2023 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/669578 to listen full audiobooks.

O jornalista Martí Perarnau, no entanto, obteve do próprio Guardiola permissão para entrar nos vestiários do Bayern de Munique, seguir de perto todos os seus passos e relatar os detalhes de uma temporada inteira do catalão no comando do clube bávaro. E tirou o máximo proveito da ocasião. Seu exaustivo trabalho de campo delineou os traços de um personagem tão genial quanto atormentado, apaixonado pelo futebol mas, ao mesmo tempo, incapaz de desfrutar totalmente das vitórias por culpa de sua obsessiva busca pela perfeição. O autor mergulhou fundo também nas ideias e conceitos de jogo fundamentais para o técnico, desfazendo ao longo da obra uma série de clichês que rodeiam a figura de Pep. Enfim, valendo-se do acesso sem precedentes aos meandros de um dos maiores clubes do mundo, e atento a tudo o que acontecia diante de seus olhos, Perarnau indagou, refletiu e contextualizou para escrever, com conhecimento de causa, sobre o técnico de futebol mais bem-sucedido dos últimos anos.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/694514Wed, 26 Oct 2022 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/694514 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Portuguese] - Mourinho Rockstar (resumo) Author: Luís Aguilar, Raul Oliveira Moreira Narrator: Everton Ferreira Format: Abridged Audiobook Length: 0 hours 27 minutes Release date: September 26, 2022 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Este minilivro é um resumo produzido a partir da obra original. 'A atitude desafiante, as declarações polêmicas, a inteligência impertinente, e, sobretudo, a atitude provocadora que demonstra no banco e nas coletivas de imprensa foram alguns dos motivos pelos quais Mourinho acabou protagonizando a nossa última capa do ano.' Editorial da Revista Rolling Stone, versão espanhola, em dezembro de 2011. O novo lançamento da editora Grande Área, Mourinho Rockstar, é uma coleção de grandes momentos da vida do técnico, que não deixa também de lançar luzes sobre seus maiores fracassos. Constrói-se apoiado em polêmicas, desavenças, grandes conquistas e episódios inesquecíveis para combinar os altos e baixos no temperamento do português com a sina de vitórias que parece sempre acompanhá-lo. Afinal, Mourinho pode ser o rebelde estampado na capa da revista Rolling Stone, um espírito rock'n'roll que invadiu o mundo do futebol, mas é também, e inegavelmente, um anti-herói muito bem-sucedido. Entre os personagens retratados no livro, encontram-se os grandes protagonistas do futebol mundial: Guardiola, Ibrahimovic, sir Alex Ferguson, Balotelli, Arrigo Sacchi, Cristiano Ronaldo. Muitos deles dividiram o vestiário com o técnico português e todos têm uma história para contar. As diversas faces desse personagem complexo convivem nas páginas da obra, e tentar harmonizá-las enquanto passava a limpo a carreira do Special One foi o desafio que o autor, o também português Luís Aguilar, enfrentou com categoria.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/694517Mon, 26 Sep 2022 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/694517 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Portuguese] - Klopp (resumo) Author: Raphael Honigstein, Raul Oliveira Moreira Narrator: Everton Ferreira Format: Abridged Audiobook Length: 0 hours 21 minutes Release date: September 26, 2022 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Este minilivro é um resumo produzido a partir da obra original. Jürgen Klopp é um treinador com o dom de transformar tanto os jogadores sob seu comando quanto os clubes que o empregam. Foi o que fez no Mainz 05 e, sobretudo, no Borussia Dortmund – um time que há tempos frequentava apenas o meio da tabela e, depois de se entregar à Kloppmania, tornou-se bicampeão nacional e uma das equipes mais aclamadas de toda a Europa por seu estilo de jogo. Klopp é autêntico, simpático e divertido, atributos que encantam quem está à sua volta. Incrivelmente obstinado e devotado ao trabalho, o seu temperamento efervescente parece deixá-lo o tempo todo na iminência de uma explosão. Por todos esses fatores, a sua chegada ao Liverpool FC gerou muita expectativa e, mesmo quando os resultados trouxeram frustração, o seu entusiasmo à beira do gramado e o futebol elétrico de seu time conquistaram a torcida, que pôde testemunhar o triunfante retorno do clube a uma final de Champions League. A fim de compor o melhor retrato deste impressionante personagem, o livro recupera a sua história desde os seus primeiros anos de vida, leva o leitor ao início de sua carreira como 'jogador de quinta divisão com cérebro de primeira' e relata a sua ascensão acidental ao posto de treinador, com as suas passagens de grande sucesso por Mainz 05 e Borussia Dortmund pavimentando o seu caminho até Anfield, a casa do Liverpool.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/694516Mon, 26 Sep 2022 10:32:40 +0000Elisabeth SchuppePlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/694516 to listen full audiobooks.
