Story
Legendary sprinter Michael Johnson embarks upon a personal journey through the history of protest in sport. Drawing on conversations with fellow athletes, commentators and educators, he discovers the remarkable stories of those who’ve taken stands, and assesses the impact of their efforts in driving societal change. Michael also reflects on his own actions of defiance, how the modern day differs from the peak years of his career and contemplates whether he himself would take the knee were he still competing.

Story
Zum einen galt Angela Merkel als Bewahrerin von Freiheit, Demokratie und Menschenrechten. Zum anderen als visionslose Machtpolitikerin. 16 Jahre lang lenkte sie die Geschicke Deutschlands - und Europas. Ausgerechnet eine Frau, die vom Leben in einer sozialistischen Parteidiktatur geprägt war, sollte die westliche Welt durch schwere Krisen führen: ob Flüchtlings- oder Finanzkrise, Trumps Präsidentschaft oder zuletzt die Corona-Pandemie.

Die Audio-Dokumentation mit bislang ungehörten O-Tönen der jungen Christiane F. (15): "Auf der einen Seite wusste ich, dass irgendwann einmal ein Wendepunkt in meinem Leben kommen wird. Das heißt aber auch, dass ich eben vielleicht noch ein paar Mal auf die Schnauze fliegen muss bevor es soweit kommt." West-Berlin in den 70ern: In dem Gemisch aus Abschottung, Kunst, Kultur, Politik und Drogen entstehen Parallelgesellschaften mit einmaligen Möglichkeiten, aber auch neuen Gefahren.

Story
Rudyard Kipling era un joven reportero cuando encontró la perdición en el barrio erótico del Lahore colonial; el marinero Joseph Conrad descubrió en Borneo un mundo hecho para «los hombres sin entrañas»; y George Orwell se inspiró en el enclave de Khata, donde trabajó como policía imperial, para escribir sus Días de Birmania. David Jiménez sigue los pasos de nueve escritores legendarios por Oriente, recorre los escenarios de sus libros y nos desvela qué permanece —y qué se ha desvanecido— en los destinos que marcaron sus vidas y su obra.

Story
For many of us, it’s playing softball with friends, under the lights, a cooler of beer in the dugout. In the late 1980s, author Rich Cohen, then a senior in high school, assembled a team of ne’er-do-wells - gear heads, burnouts, goof balls, and the possibly gifted - to compete in what Cohen considered the best 12-Inch softball league in the Lower 48. Think Field of Dreams, but, instead of a cornfield in Iowa, these games were played behind a grade school in Glencoe, Illinois, on Chicago’s North Shore.

Writer Lyz Lenz lives in Iowa, but she was raised in a small town in Texas, and her Audible Original Cottonwood Creek explores her funny and emotional memories of her life as a homeschooled evangelical girl in a large family of eight children. Growing up, Lenz and her family fervently believed that the rapture was coming, maybe any day now, and she and her siblings spent their days - which for all they knew could have been their last on earth - exploring the woods near their home, conjuring playtime fantasies, and testing the limits of their imaginations.
