Most of the world remembers Crazy Horse as a peerless warrior who brought the U.S. Army to its knees at the Battle of Little Bighorn. But to his fellow Lakota Indians, he was a dutiful son and humble fighting man who, with valor, spirit, respect, and unparalleled leadership, fought for his people's land, livelihood, and honor. In this fascinating biography, Joseph Marshall, himself a Lakota Indian, creates a vibrant portrait of the man, his times, and his legacy.

It was to be the war to end all wars, and it began at 11:15 on the morning of June 28, 1914, in an outpost of the Austro-Hungarian Empire called Sarajevo. It would officially end nearly five years later. Unofficially, however, it has never ended: Many of the horrors we live with today are rooted in the First World War. The Great War left millions of civilians and soldiers maimed or dead. It also saw the creation of new technologies of destruction: tanks, planes, and submarines; machine guns and field artillery; poison gas and chemical warfare.

For the past few hundred years, most of what we’ve been taught about the native cultures of North America came from reports authored by the conquerors and colonizers who destroyed them. Now - with the technological advances of modern archaeology and a new perspective on world history - we are finally able to piece together their compelling true stories. In Ancient Civilizations of North America, Professor Edwin Barnhart, Director of the Maya Exploration Center, will open your eyes to a fascinating world you never knew existed - even though you’ve been living right next to it, or even on top of it.

Description
If one George Carlin audio is funny, then two are funnier and three must be funniest, right? That's our thinking behind this new collection. It's a HighBridge library of laugh-out-loud, award-winning recordings featuring George himself performing many of his best bits. The set includes:
Brain Droppings
Acerbic observations, manic musings, in-your-face questions, witty word play, and more "droppings" from Carlin's singular brain. "I put a dollar in a change machine. Nothing changed." "Why are there no recreational drugs taken in suppository form?" The first Carlin book on audio and a 2001 Grammy winner.
Napalm & Silly Putty
Carlin invents Past-Tense TV (Got Smart, Father Knew Best, It Was Left to Beaver); crusades for the Center for Research into the Heebie Jeebies; founds the George Carlin Book Club (recommended reading: Fill Your Life with Croutons); and suggests that "If the shoe fits, get another just like it." A 2002 Grammy winner.
More Napalm & Silly Putty
Everything that wouldn't fit on the first Napalm recording - like "A Day in the Life of Henry VIII", "Sports Should Be Fixed", compelling confessions ("I couldn't commit suicide if my life depended on it"), and candid takes on life's little moments ("I'm beyond the nice day"), all delivered with wicked glee.

George and his material did not age well.
Overall just a rinse and repeat of what would have been amazing content at one time, now just sounds like the ageing rants of an ageing individual.
If you can get this for free grab it to remind yourself of the good old days. Otherwise move on and allow it to fade into history.

A pretty good collection of Carlin's jokes.
George rarely disappoints. If you've watched his stand up, you'll have probably heard or read many of these. Most wouldn't pass muster in 2023, but George also wouldn't care. In fact I think he would really love these other reviews concerned about how it comes across today, when the guy has been dead for fifteen years - predating Audible. Appreciate it for what it is and when it was performed.
Delivery is great from the master himself. No worries there.
As with many comedians, not every joke is going to land. In fact, sometimes his musings make zero sense even accounting for being written in a different era. If you've read his biography, then the failed jokes existing makes more sense when you realize he was probably on a lot of cocaine when he wrote them.
George more often than not delivers in what is an unapologetic, politically neutral bashing of everyone via crass, well thoughtout humour.
Turn off your brain, smoke a left-handed cigarette and enjoy.

More old George Carlin Bits
Just George Carlin repeating his famous bits and read aloud by Carlin himself. Love Carlin, love hearing him read his routines, but a lot of the jokes I’ve heard so many times that the whole thing felt tired. Jokes tend to get less funny the more times you hear them. Also, Carlin’s brand of wordplay and play on words tends to get a little old and predictable after an hour or so.
