Old School

Life in the Sane Lane

De: Bill O'Reilly, Bruce Feirstein

Narrado por: Holter Graham

This program includes an introduction read by Bill O'Reilly.

Old School is in session....

You have probably heard the term Old School, but what you might not know is that there is a concentrated effort to tear that school down.

It's a values thing. The anti–Old School forces believe the traditional way of looking at life is oppressive. Not inclusive. The Old School way may harbor microaggressions. Therefore, Old School philosophy must be diminished.

Those crusading against Old School now have a name: Snowflakes. You may have seen them on cable TV whining about social injustice and income inequality. You may have heard them cheering Bernie Sanders as he suggested the government pay for almost everything. The Snowflake movement is proud and loud, and they don't like Old School grads.

So where are you in all this?

Did you get up this morning knowing there are mountains to climb—and deciding how you are going to climb them? Do you show up on time? Do you still bend over to pick up a penny? If so, you're Old School.

Or did you wake up whining about safe spaces and trigger warnings? Do you feel marginalized by your college's mascot? Do you look for something to get outraged about, every single day, so you can fire off a tweet defending your exquisitely precious sensibilities? Then you're a Snowflake.

So again, are you drifting frozen precipitation? Or do you matriculate at the Old School fountain of wisdom?

This book will explain the looming confrontation so even the ladies on The View can understand it.

Time to take a stand. Old School or Snowflake. Which will it be?

Usual excellence...

Would you consider the audio edition of Old School to be better than the print version?

Another great book from O'Reilly and his co-authors. If you've been sitting on the sidelines, jump in. You'll love it.

Old School at 32

I'm very happy that I was raised the way I was. Old School! you know you are old school if you thank God you were born and raised this way!

Just amazing

I have been longing to get back into reading glad I started with this one!!

are you snowflake or old school?

This book helps you understand the great social divide in the present age, but it doesn't in a light-hearted and self-deprecating way, that anyone with common sense can appreciate

Ear candy

So refreshing to hear classic solid real American ideals published. More glad for the pointing out that these are not "conservative" narrow minded ideals. These are the very basic building blocks upon which our country has flourished since its founding, regardless of your political beliefs. To undermine the old school hurts everyone!

Right On if your not a snowflake!

This was a great listen, I am a 50 year old man that grew up old school and could relate to much of what Mr. Feinstein and Mr. O'Reilly discuss in this humorous, cutting and biographical book. It was interesting to compare my experience with theirs, being much younger but really not much has changed if your raised old school. I recommend the book, it's an easy listen.

Great content; just fair narration

I loved the book but I couldn't tell which author was "talking". I found that distracting.

A message for today's parents and children.

A message for today's parents and children to step back and look at past generations accomplishments.

Funny, smart, and en pointe!

There is a lot of humor and some very big points are made. I would recommend this book to anyone. I will definitely give it another listen or two.

nice

excellent book that does a great job of summarizing today's incredible disparity between those who understand good behavior and those who don't
