Story
Guy Montag is a fireman. In his world, where television rules and literature is on the brink of extinction, firemen start fires rather than put them out. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television "family."

Story
Dieses Buch ist ein Warnruf an alle Europäer! Kurt Tucholsky schrieb 1931: "Das Volk versteht das meiste falsch; aber es fühlt das meiste richtig." Immer mehr Menschen fühlen, dass die Zukunft Deutschlands und Europas in Gefahr ist, verstehen jedoch noch nicht die Ursachen. Deshalb muss das ganze Ausmaß von Täuschung und Fremdbestimmung offengelegt werden. Nur so können wir erkennen, was uns heute bedroht, warum gegen den Mehrheitswillen offenkundig regiert wird und was wir dagegen tun können.

I found the content highly interesting, albeit repetitive, but the narration especially when trying to pronounce German names (often incorrectly) very irritating.

Have you ever wondered why some people seem to get rich easily while others are destined for lives of financial struggle?

In his groundbreaking Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, T. Harv Eker states, "Give me five minutes, and I can predict your financial future for the rest of your life!"

Story
In the past half-century, women have revolutionised the way they work and live. But men’s lives have changed remarkably little. Why? Is it because men don’t want to change? Or is it because, every day in various ways, they are told they shouldn’t? In Men at Work, Annabel Crabb deploys political observation, workplace research and her characteristic humour and intelligence to argue that gender equity cannot be achieved until men are as free to leave the workplace (when their lives demand it) as women are to enter it.

Story
The key to living a happier, healthier life is inside us. Our gut is almost as important to us as our brain or our heart, yet we know very little about how it works. In Gut, Giulia Enders shows that rather than the utilitarian and - let's be honest - somewhat embarrassing body part we imagine it to be, it is one of the most complex, important, and even miraculous parts of our anatomy.

Story
For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

Story
How can we change our behaviours? The first step is understanding our habits. For better or worse, habits are the invisible building blocks of daily life. Research suggests that about 40% of what we do is repeated almost daily and yet most of the time we aren’t really aware of what’s happening. In this series, neuroscientist Ash Ranpura and comedian Alice Fraser deep dive into the science of behaviour change. They want to find out how we can make good habits and how we can break bad ones.

I found the sessions way too short and would have preferred one continuous recording instead of 6 short segments. Very lighthearted, but not much substance..
