    The Chris Voss Show Podcast – The Entity Game by Jimmie D Robinson

    The Entity Game by Jimmie D Robinson https://www.amazon.com/Entity-Game-Jimmie-D-Robinson/dp/B0GYMMB7TJ The Entity Game by Jimmie D. Robinson is a thrilling blend of science fiction, action, and historical warfare that spans centuries—and galaxies. In the year 2129, an elite team of Space Defenders uncovers a mysterious metallic vault buried deep within a distant alien pyramid. But they are not alone. Rival alien forces wage a brutal battle to claim the powerful object, triggering a chain of events that unleashes twelve enigmatic energy beings—ancient entities with unimaginable intelligence and purpose. These entities are not mere observers—they are players. Diving into the minds and ancestral memories of humanity, they select warriors from different eras—Vikings, Zulus, ninjas, soldiers, and more—to represent them in a high-stakes, interdimensional “game.” Each faction brings its own brutal history, strategy, and instinct for survival into a contest where the rules are unclear and the consequences are deadly. As past and future collide, and as humanity becomes an unwitting pawn in a cosmic competition, one question remains: Who will control the game… and what happens to those who lose? Packed with intense battles, imaginative world-building, and a unique fusion of history and sci-fi, The Entity Game delivers a gripping adventure that challenges the limits of time, power, and destiny.

    The Chris Voss Show Podcast – The End of Us: A Story of Death, Deception and China’s Deadly Grip on US Healthcare by Tony Paquin

    The End of Us: A Story of Death, Deception and China’s Deadly Grip on US Healthcare by Tony Paquin https://www.amazon.com/End-Us-Deception-Chinas-Healthcare/dp/B0CPWVGBCS In 2020, Tony Paquin’s small medical supply company faced an impossible task—fulfilling a federal contract to procure one billion needles and syringes for America’s COVID-19 vaccination effort. What followed was a high-stakes battle against cutthroat factory owners, shady middlemen, relentless scammers, and even the Chinese Communist Party itself. Through this ordeal, Paquin uncovered a dangerous truth: America’s dependence on China and foreign sources for life-saving drugs, medical supplies, and high-tech devices is a ticking time bomb. Nearly everything that keeps Americans alive is manufactured overseas—often under the control of a geopolitical rival. The End of Us is more than a real-life thriller. It’s an urgent wake-up call about a critical national security threat—one that could be weaponized in a future conflict. With firsthand insights from inside the global supply chain, Paquin exposes the hidden dangers of America’s medical dependence and lays out what must be done to reclaim control before it’s too late. About the author Tony Paquin is an acclaimed author, serial entrepreneur, and authority in the healthcare industry, known for pioneering Retail Healthcare. With over thirty years of experience leading public and private companies to groundbreaking achievements, Tony’s work has consistently focused on the intersection of healthcare, technology, and business innovation. His first book, “The Retail Healthcare Revolution,” established Tony as a forward-thinking voice in healthcare, proposing transformative business models that combine retail strategies with healthcare services. His insights into enhancing patient engagement and leveraging digital health technologies have influenced practitioners and policymakers alike.

    The Chris Voss Show Podcast – Bliss in Triple Rhythm–A Toolbox for Poets: Nine Ways to Shape A Word Song: Shown in 300 Original Poems by Martin Bidney

    Bliss in Triple Rhythm–A Toolbox for Poets: Nine Ways to Shape A Word Song: Shown in 300 Original Poems by Martin Bidney https://www.amazon.com/Bliss-Triple-Rhythm-Toolbox-Poets/dp/1987402561 Mmartinbidney.org This book of word songs in unexpected melodic patterns will surprise you by its equally unusual liveliness. I’m so eager to begin singing for you that, as you noticed, I’ve already written a prefatory poem in one of the varied kinds of triple rhythm units I’ll be illustrating (la LA la; weak STRONG weak; one TWO three; x/x). The strangest thing I’ll be doing in my collection is to bring about a resurrection of ancient stanza patterns embodying the musical structures I love. The uncustomary triple-rhythm stanza forms richly displayed will acquire a real if unlikely novelty by presenting tools so extremely old. About the author Martin Bidney, Professor Emeritus at Binghamton University (NY), writes poetry books that are dialogues. In “Shakespair” he converses in Shakespearean sonnets with the 154 that the bisexual Bard himself wrote in the 1590s about his boyfriend and girlfriend. In “A Unifying Light” Martin converses with Qur’anic passages on the topic of Jews and Christians in the Qur’an and the Islamic virtues they embody. “East-West Poetry” shows Martin replying, in poems, to passages from both the Qur’an and Rumi. “Poems of Wine and Tavern Romance” offers 103 dialogues between Martin and Hafiz, the 14th century Persian pub poet he translates, a Muslim Sufi who was bisexual, like Shakespeare, and whom Germany’s greatest poet, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, called his “twin” brother! (Martin translates Hafiz from the same version Goethe used.) In fact, Martin has also translated Goethe’s own “West-East Divan” (divan means “collection”) and wrote conversational reply poems to all of Goethe’s 240 lyrics. Martin’s dialogue book with the greatest Polish poet, Adam Mickiewicz, contains, on facing pages, the sonnets he wrote in response to the “Crimean Sonnets” he translated from Polish. In “Like a Fine Rug of Erivan” he translates 39 Pushkin poems from Russian and recites them on a CD. His wide-ranging fascination with revelatory writing stems from “Patterns of Epiphany,” where Martin pioneered a method of analysis he has since applied to over 20 authors.

    The Chris Voss Show Podcast – Life Lessons and Tales of Little MisFit: Book 1: Life Isn’t Always What It Seems by Dr. S K Grunin

    Life Lessons and Tales of Little MisFit: Book 1: Life Isn’t Always What It Seems by Dr. S K Grunin https://www.amazon.com/Life-Lessons-Tales-Little-MisFit/dp/B0G63HGY6T Ivy Sue Klutz (Little MisFit – LMF) finds one of her first memories confusing. This is when she is three and a half years old and is at her sister Lynn’s birthday party. Their cousin, Janet, asks the partygoers to guess what Lynn’s birthday present is as the truck delivering the present is backing up to the front porch of their house. Unbeknown to LMF, Janet told the other kids not to really guess that it’s a bike. You guessed – LMF guesses that her sister is getting a bike for her 5th birthday present. But instead of everyone being happy that LMF guessed the right thing, everyone is mad at her and none more than her mother. LMF runs off to her soon-to-be baby brother’s bedroom and tries to hide behind his dresser, with her mother hot on her heels, yelling at her all the way. From this experience and many others through her 4th grade years in school, LMF learns the Life Lesson that Life Isn’t Always What It Seems. Many people growing up are often made to feel inadequate or not to fi t in in situations, as a former probation officer, executive/life coach and professor, Dr. Susan Grunin, learned through humor and working with others – particularly children and young adults, how to fit in those uncomfortable situations. She believes that it is important that children learn at a young age how to manage these issues and to use humor to build their own self-esteem. Thus, she created, Little MisFit, (LMF) a fictional character, who through humorous tales, shares life lessons that she learns as she is growing up. Through these stories, LMF describes how she learned to overcome many life challenges and accept who she is as a person. Furthermore, the tales allow adults to share their own tales without coming off “too preachy” and to be able to share their own life lessons with their children and/or grandchildren or other loved ones.
