Fascism: From Mussolini 2 Trump Audiobook

"Fascism From Mussolini to Trump by Emmy-nominated actor and internationally best-selling author Geoffrey Giuliano is a gripping, meticulously researched, and profoundly unsettling exploration of how the poisonous ideology of fascism has endured and evolved from the early 20th century into the modern political era. Giuliano begins with the rise of Benito Mussolini in post-World War I Italy, examining how economic instability, social unrest, and wounded national pride allowed a charismatic demagogue to seize power by exploiting fear, nationalism, and propaganda. The audiobook delves into the mechanics of Mussolini’s dictatorship—the suppression of free speech, the dismantling of democratic institutions, and the brutal tactics used to eliminate opposition, laying the groundwork for future authoritarian regimes. Giuliano draws parallels to Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich, detailing how fascist methods were refined and amplified under Nazi rule. He reveals how these regimes gained support from ordinary people, corporations, and even religious institutions, allowing hate and control to masquerade as strength and order. With a focus on the rise of Donald Trump in the United States, Giuliano draws comparisons between the tactics used by classical fascist leaders and those employed in today’s political climate—attacks on the free press, demonization of immigrants and minorities, the glorification of militarism, and the manipulation of truth through social media and partisan echo chambers.. Fascism From Mussolini to Trump is a vital and timely work that challenges listeners to confront the uncomfortable truths about power, complicity, and the fragile nature of democracy. It is a must-listen for anyone seeking to understand the historical patterns behind today’s political turmoil, and a call to remain vigilant in the face of rising authoritarianism."

With his signature voice—both commanding and intimate—Giuliano leads listeners beyond the official record and into the shadowed corners of history where facts blur and deeper meanings emerge.

Through The Looking Glass

"Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, Lewis Carroll’s sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, presents a surreal journey that continues Alice's exploration of strange and whimsical worlds. In this narrative, Alice steps through a mirror into an alternate realm, one that mirrors the world she knows but is filled with peculiar characters and strange rules. As she moves through this reversed landscape, she encounters an assortment of vivid personalities, including Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the Red Queen, and Humpty Dumpty, each contributing to the dreamlike quality of the world. The story is infused with playful logic and philosophical musings, as Alice navigates the strange realities and nonsensical situations of the Looking-Glass world. The novel's structure is influenced by a series of games, such as chess, where Alice's progress through the mirror world mirrors the moves of a chessboard. As Alice journeys across this metaphorical chessboard, she slowly advances from a humble pawn to a powerful queen, representing growth, transformation, and the attainment of wisdom. Throughout the story, Alice’s encounters force her to challenge the boundaries of logic and reason, much like in Wonderland, but in Looking-Glass, there’s a stronger focus on movement, order, and reflection. In her encounters with the characters, there is an element of mirroring — Alice's experiences often reflect the thoughts, actions, and behavior of others, revealing the world’s oddity as something familiar yet reversed. As Alice ventures onward, her own identity and understanding of her place in this strange world continue to shift and evolve, embodying themes of self-awareness, time, and the transition from childhood to a more complex form of knowledge."

1984, Chrome Yellow, Brave New World

"In 1984 by George Orwell, one of the pivotal paragraphs that captures the essence of the novel is when Winston Smith reflects on the power and control exerted by the Party. This passage illustrates the Party's ability to manipulate reality and shape individual thought: 'Who controls the past controls the future; who controls the present controls the past.' This phrase encapsulates the totalitarian regime's grip on history and truth. By constantly rewriting records and altering facts, the Party ensures that they control not just the narrative of the past, but also how people think and perceive the present and future. It is a chilling depiction of the dangers of unchecked power and the erosion of personal freedom and truth under a totalitarian state. In Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, ollows Bernard Marx and John the Savage as they grapple with a society that prioritizes comfort and control over freedom and authentic human experience. Through this dystopian lens, Huxley critiques the dangers of a technologically advanced, consumer-driven society that strips away personal freedom and individuality. Crome Yellow, first novel by Aldous Huxley, published in 1921. The book is a social satire of the British literati in the period following World War I. The book revolves around the hapless love affair of Denis Stone, a sensitive poet, and Anne Wimbush. Anne’s uncle, Henry Wimbush, hosts a party at his country estate, Crome, that brings together a humorous coterie of characters. Aldous Leonard Huxley was an English writer and philosopher. He wrote nearly 50 books—both novels and non-fiction works—as well as wide-ranging essays, narratives, and poems. Born into the prominent Huxley family, he graduated from Balliol College, Oxford, with an undergraduate degree in English literature."

Vivian Stanshall The Biography

"Vivian Stanshall is the quintessential pop hero of the 60s, 70s, and 80s who first shot to fame in 1968 in the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band. Viv was well known too for his ribald tales of the upper-class Rawlinsons and Maynards who were the bees’ knees for anyone with a warped sense of humor. Born in 1943 in Oxfordshire, his family settled in the coastal town of Leigh-on-Sea. After being a bingo-caller to painting fairground attractions (with a spell in the merchant navy), Stanshall enrolled at London’s Central School of Art and Design. It was there in 1962, that he met Roger Ruskin Spear, Rodney Slater, Larry Smith, and Neil Innes and formed the Bonzo Dog Band. They appeared in the Beatles ' Magical Mystery Tour' movie in 1967, and enjoyed an off-kilter Top 10 hit with `I’m The Urban Spaceman’ a year later, After the Bonzo’s split in early 1970 (LPs: `Gorilla’, `The Doughnut In Granny’s Greenhouse’, `Tadpoles’ and `Keynsham’), Viv explored his unique musical madness on several smashing LPs and 45s. As contractual duties led Viv back to the Bonzos to 1972’s 'Let’s Make Up And Be Friendly’ – showcasing the sophisticated, spoken-wordsmith’s introduction to Sir Henry, via `Rawlinson End’. Thinking Mike Oldfield’s titanic `Tubular Bells’ would never be the success it became, Stanshall’s MC-sonic word-play was an essential ingredient. He never got paid. Vivian tragically passed away on March 5, 1995, in a London flat fire at the age of 51. The fire was believed to have been started by a discarded cigarette, and Stanshall, living alone at the time, died from smoke inhalation. His death was a shocking loss to the world of music and the avant-garde, as Stanshall was known for his wit, surrealist humor, and innovative contributions to British rock and comedy."
