Sarah Wynn-Williams, a young diplomat from New Zealand, pitched for her dream job. She saw Facebook’s potential and knew it could change the world for the better. But, when she got there and rose to its top ranks, things turned out a little different. From wild schemes cooked up on private jets to risking prison abroad, Careless People exposes both the personal and political fallout when boundless power and a rotten culture take hold.

We all have things in our life that we should know by now, but don’t. Absences in our knowledge and skillset that are frankly shameful in an adult. Things that would be too embarrassing to ask anyone to explain – except our very best friend. Listen in as Mel and Sue tackle their ignorance head on, asking each other to explain something that they still don’t know - but absolutely, as adults, should - from how to parallel park to fully understanding bread (why has it got all those holes in it? What, honestly, is yeast?).

It was supposed to be the trip of a lifetime… In reality it was a business trip, prettied up as a romantic mini break, but the man behind the wheel was meant to be Candice Hart’s boss and (married but separated, I swear!) lover. Not Danny the new guy! Not only is Candice faced with a new driver, but the office’s far too handsome hipster expects her to share the cramped space inside his “fully” restored VW Beetle, aka The Love Bug, and put up with his constant opinions about her life…

When Dylan Mulvaney came out as a woman online, she was a viral sensation almost overnight, emerging as a trailblazing voice on social media. Dylan's personal coming-out story blossomed into a platform for advocacy and empowerment for trans people all over the world. In Paper Doll: Notes from a Late Bloomer, Dylan pulls back the curtain of her "It Girl" lifestyle with a witty and intimate reflection of her life pre- and post-transition.

Dan has accidentally "Noclipped" into the Backrooms—a bizarro, extra-dimensional Alice-in-Wonderland world, overrun with horrific nightmare creatures known as the Dwellers. No one ever gets out. Hell, forget about leaving, if Dan wants to survive the week, he's going to need to harness the strange game-like magic of the Backrooms, make some very sketchy allies, and carve out a little safe haven to call his own.

Retired schoolteachers Pat, Liz and Thelma don’t know what to think. The death of Neville Hilton is not a crime. Just your standard, if tragic, heart attack. At least that’s what the autopsy shows. But his ex-wife isn’t convinced. She’s sure his current wife was involved – maybe she wasn’t at some horse event, as she told police. And so the three friends step away from the Melmbury slice to investigate.

Father–son relationships are rarely easy and certainly not when the son’s first love is Shakespeare and the father is the kingpin of a drug empire. Esteban Velasquez, however, manages to forge a frosty détente with his father—he studies literature abroad while his father grooms his older brother as the heir.

Forbidden from pursuing her calling, Shadow Holmes, the great-granddaughter of Mycroft Holmes, Sherlock’s older—and smarter—brother, works for her father selling real estate in Miami. To compound matters, Shadow has no idea her father is the director of The Bee, a clandestine British spy agency, until she and her parents are poisoned by the bewitching—and decidedly evil— Professor Jane Moriarty.

Thomas Mann's vivid, dramatic, and thought-provoking The Magic Mountain is firmly established as one of the classic epic novels of the twentieth century. Part surreal comedy, part grim tragedy, Mann's story depicts a decaying European society on the eve of the First World War.

Paul Delamare has been roped into accompanying his old friend on a luxury cruise aboard the magnificent superyacht Mal de Mer. It’s all plain sailing until his friend’s priceless necklace is stolen, and everyone falls under suspicion. As Paul races to catch the thief, the ship begins to drift off-course, veering into the storm-lashed mid-Atlantic. Then one of the passengers is found dead in mysterious circumstances, in a pool of coffee and surrounded by cake crumbs. It’s all hands on deck to catch the killer, but Paul soon discovers guests and crew are harbouring deadly secrets.

Jane and Dan have been married for nineteen years, but Jane isn't sure they're going to make it to twenty. She's pretty sure Dan is cheating on her. When the couple goes to the renowned upscale restaurant La Fin du Monde to celebrate their anniversary, Jane thinks it's as good a place as any to tell Dan she wants a divorce. But before they even get to the second course, an underground climate activist group bursts into the dining room.

This is a podcast for people somewhere in between believer and skeptic. Whether it’s aliens, bigfoot, or just creepy Dan down the hall, we’ll talk about it. Feedback, reviews, subs, and all are super appreciated, but we want to talk to you as well, so connect with us on Twitter and Facebook: @SkepSkepPod on both!

Come along on another hilarious and terrifying tale by comedy-horror writer, P. D. Williams. Amelia is a quiet, intelligent loner, longing for purpose and love. Oh, and by the way, she’s also a savage serial killer. Follow Johnny, the criminal and manipulating courter addicted to over-the-counter meds, and Timothy, the naïve Mormon missionary, as they find themselves caught up in Amelia’s kooky web of violence. Prepare to laugh at the zaniness, and gasp at the horror that unfolds in the dark, frightening room that lurks beneath her feet.

What do democracy and doughnuts have in common? Nothing in the middle. Owls, Doughnuts, and Democracy is the satirical adventures of an outspoken millennial woman with a colourful past named Bea, who, with a motley coalition spanning the political spectrum, puts the middle back into democracy. Bea gets it all going when she’s volunteered to help at a senior’s home. She teaches octogenarian Harold, the resident curmudgeon and ex-MP troll, to use the internet, leading to an app for people to vote individually on bills before parliament.

Bagi Rebecca Bloomwood, hidup ini sungguh mudah. Ia muncul setiap pagi di TV, manajer banknya sangat baik hati, dan soal belanja, motonya adalah Hanya Beli Apa Yang Kau Perlu—dan ia sungguh-sungguh mematuhinya! (Yah, kira-kira begitulah). Hidupnya lebih sempurna ketika kekasihnya, Luke Brandon yang terkenal, menawarinya kesempatan untuk bekerja di New York. Astaga, New York! Di sana kan ada banyak tempat belanja hebat seperti Saks atau Bloomingdale's. Atau Barney's. Dan obral-obral sampel misterius tempat kita bisa mendapatkan gaun Prada seharga seratus dolar!

Hidup Becky Bloomwood sungguh mulus: dia punya pekerjaan yang menyenangkan, tinggal di apartemen Manhattan bersama pacarnya, Luke, dan mereka membuka rekening gabungan (walaupun belum sepakat apakah rok Miu Miu termasuk pos pengeluaran rumah tangga). Kemudian Luke melamarnya! Sesudah itu hidup Becky jadi rumit lagi. Ibunya ingin mereka menikah di Inggris, ingin Becky mengenakan gaun pengantinnya dulu. Ibu Luke ingin mereka menikah di Plaza Hotel New York, dengan pesta mewah, kue pengantin spektakuler, dan kada-kado luar biasa…

В этой книге нет ни одной скучной истории. Наш герой, простой парень по имени Алексей Гагач, проделывает на этих страницах путь от младенчества до средних лет, успевает за это время стать мастером на все руки, переехать в Петербург, сделать первые шаги в литературе и чуть не вызвать апокалипсис. При этом буквально на каждом шагу с ним случается что-то уморительно смешное, а иной раз и трагикомическое. Но он всякий раз умудряется выйти сухим из воды и помочь своим ближним, так что про "стать никем" — это он явно скромничает.
