45 minutes on 2 buses each way. Wondering if you might suggest a few audio books that can be downloaded. I really enjoyed listening to Dr. Andrew Weil's stuff. Any that you might recommend. I like a variety of things: books, interviews, lectures, etc. Please, share links if you have them.

You can also PM me the Link~ if you prefer.

Thank you in advance.

May I suggest Sun Tzu's The Art of War by BD Wong

I am listening to "The Big Sleep"...by Raymond Chandler and it is really enjoyable...if you like the hard-boiled detective story.

I finished the complete Hitchhiker's series by Douglas Adams...and it was better than when I read it. Adams does the reading and it was really good.

I've taken the opportunity to catch up on my movies. I have almost 400 Korean movies on some external drives and I've only watched about 25% of them.. having picked up a touch this summer I've started watching a few a week on the bus/subway.
It seems like the only hope I'll ever have of actually making it through..

That's an easy one--anything by Bernard Cornwell. I started off with his Sharpe's series and have been plowing through everything else he wrote. He is a fantastic writer and his stories keep me entranced no matter what I'm doing.

Hi! usually, I download audiobooks at Mininova:

I would suggest Michael Pollan's "The Omnivore's Dilemma"

If you have an ipod or another portable video player, a good idea is to download dozens of speeches in http://www.ted.com they are amazing and I always have many many to watch whike I'm at the subway.

Good luck!

There are lots of Agatha Christie books out there. Some are ancient BBC radio broadcasts (45 min to an hour?), others are more modern broadcasts, and some are strictly audio-books that must last 8 hours or more.

The Story of Civilizations- all volumes, Will Durant.

[Dude Ranch]

The four agreements by Don Miguel Riuz - loved it. Narrator has a cool voice

[seonsengnimble]

I recommend downloading lecture series instead. "The Teaching Company" has put out a ton of lecture series, and they are pretty interesting. I listened to the history of the English language, and am now listening to the history of Rome.

I also liked both Stephen Colbert and John Stewart's audio books, but I'm not too familiar with your political persuasion or your nationality, so they may not be of much interest.

Oh, and I wholeheartedly concur that TED.com and the TED Talks are an amazing way to pass the time as well.
