Einhörner gibt es nicht. Zumindest dachte das die vierzehnjährige Julia. Einhörner gab es nur in ihren Alpträumen oder entsprangen der Fantasie ihrer Mutter. Die glaubt nämlich an deren Existenz. Und nicht nur das: Julias Mutter ist der größte Einhorn-Fan der Welt. Doch dann springt ein sprechender Keks, namens Norbert und kurz darauf ein ebenfalls sprechendes, quicklebendiges Einhorn durch ein Portal mitten in Julias Leben hinein. Und es handelt sich dabei nicht um irgendein Einhorn, nein! Das berühmte Pummeleinhorn höchstpersönlich steht vor dem völlig verdatterten Mädchen.

The Three Dimensions of Freedom explains how strongman politics and neo-liberalism have dwindled the power of political parties and how voters have been disillusioned into believing they are helpless to effect change. Bragg's book details the argument that accountability is the antidote to authoritarianism and that we can never be free without it. In this interview, Billy spoke about what constitutes freedom, why Trump is so difficult to hold accountable and the problems with the voting system in the UK.  

The Mister tells the story of well-to-do (and well-off!) Maxim Trevelyan, who is living the high-life with good lucks, aristocratic connections, and no need to work. Things change when Maxim is charged with the responsibility of inheriting his family's wealth, estates and titles. It is not a role well suited to Maxim. In this interview, we spoke to E. L. James about setting The Mister in Albania, Fifty Shades going viral, and the music playlists that accompany her writing.

Joining us at Audible Studios is British advertising executive Rory Sutherland, whose TED talks have been viewed nearly seven million times. He has recently released his book Alchemy: The Surprising Power of Ideas That Don't Make Sense. In many areas of our lives, reason plays an infinitesimal part. We are driven by unconscious desires. We are drawn to the beautiful, the extravagant and the absurd, such as tiny bottles of fragrance. If you want to influence people's choices, you have to bypass reason.
