Hey everyone,
If you're like me, you may have problems reading books in hand...or not having the funds to support the great habit of reading.
So I decided about a week ago to pirate some of the books I've wanted to read but realistically probably wouldn't. I set up a private podcast rss feed to host these books.
There were a few problems I encountered. One was some of the books weren't available. Two was some of the books came in large audio files or broken apart in chapters. As a result, when a book was spread across multiple files I created a "season" for that particular book.
As for the missing pieces, or books you'd like to be included, that is where the Hexbear community can help. I'd love feedback and I can do my best to find the audio files to add to the library. I'm hoping this could potentially help the book club read-along series if need be too.
Please message me if you're interested in the rss feed, I don't want to post it for fear of it tripping some invisible wire that shuts the feed down. But I do want you to share, far and wide, with friends and fellow leftists.
(also note, to suggest/recommended books, use this thread. doing it in PMs it's more likely to be lost)
Thanks, and I look forward to some recommendations.
Edit : just realized how dumb it was to ask for suggestions but you only can see the library if you pm me, so fuck it, here's the feed

I'd be willing to help record audio versions of anything that hasn't been recorded anywhere, though ideally that would be a group undertaking. I have lots of audio editing/speaking/recording experience.
I was talking with OP about adding Trans Liberation by Leslie Feinberg to the feed but we could not find an audiobook. If you could record even some of it that'd be great!
Here is the link to download the book on library genesis: http://libgen.rs/search.php?req=Leslie+Feinberg&column=author
If I’m not mistaken, I think a comrade here made this! Let me know if the link works

That's great thanks comrade!
Hey @gundambigtex someone already did Trans Liberation, you can maybe add it to the feed?
Adding now!
Thanks!
