Acerca de esta escucha
The Battles Of Donnie And Teddy was inspired by watching the Republican Party debates, and especially the knock-down, drag-out fight between Donald Trump and Ted Cruz. They are like two little boys fighting in a schoolyard or playground over their toys and who is the best. They hurl insults, call each other names, and try to humiliate one another and his family members.
Meanwhile, as the fight goes on, the Republican Party is appalled, as are many national leaders, who have expressed concern that the level of personal attacks are not befitting a Presidential candidate, much less a President, and are dragging down the reputation of the US into the mud. So I have written this book in that spirit - featuring Trump and Cruz as two little kids fighting - and then fighting some more. The book features four stories of two kids fighting - in the sandbox, at a birthday party, at the lake, and at the playground.

At the front of a middle-school classroom in Oklahoma, a boy named Khosrou (whom everyone calls "Daniel") stands, trying to tell a story. His story. But no one believes a word he says. To them he is a dark-skinned, hairy-armed boy with a big butt whose lunch smells funny; who makes things up and talks about poop too much.

Rafe Khatchadorian has enough problems at home without throwing his first year of middle school into the mix. Luckily, he's got a foolproof plan for the best year ever, if only he can pull it off: With his best friend Leonardo the Silent awarding him points, Rafe will break every rule in his school's oppressive Code of Conduct. Chewing gum in class--5,000 points! Running in the hallway--10,000 points! Pulling the fire alarm--50,000 points! But when Rafe's game starts to catch up with him, he'll have to decide if winning is all that matters.

Little did she know that she was, early in his career as a troublemaker, defining the essence of Bill O'Reilly and providing him with the title of his brash and entertaining issues-based memoir.

Over the course of a 30-year career, Eddie Izzard has proven himself to be a creative chameleon, inhabiting the stage and film and television screens with an unbelievable fervor. Born in Yemen and raised in Ireland, Wales, and postwar England, he lost his mother at the age of six. In his teens he dropped out of university and took to the streets of London as part of a two-man escape act; when his partner went on vacation, Izzard kept busy by inventing a one-man act, and thus a career was ignited.

Rick Reilly has been a senior sports writer for Sports Illustrated for the past 17 years, and has been named "Sports Writer of The Year" seven times. Now, he pokes his nose into the world of golf. How does he do it? By caddying ("looping") for top players, celebrities, and some really bad run-of-the-mill golfers, Reilly gains insight into the minds of golfers, their winning or less-than-winning ways, and what they actually mutter when they're in the middle of play.

What do the lives of Lincoln, Helen Keller, Joan of Arc, and other historical figures have in common with Paula Poundstone? In the hands of this wryly observant and self-deprecating comedian, the answer is outrageously funny and unexpectedly touching. Poundstone compares her crazy life to theirs, as she holds forth on her children, her career, and the time in her life when it appeared she would lose them both.

Greg “Slam” Harris can play basketball, period. On the court, he’s almost unstoppable. As he says, “I can hoop. Case closed.” But off the court, it’s a different story. Every day is a struggle to keep things together. Leaving his best friend Ice behind, Slam transfers to a top-notch academic school and is easily the best player on the basketball team. But his grades are slipping, and the coach doesn’t appreciate Slam’s attitude. On top of that, Slam suspects that Ice has started selling drugs, just as their opposing teams prepare for a showdown on the court.

What Great Timing
Would you listen to The Battles of Donnie and Teddy again? Why?
Absolutely. I think Gini Graham Scott did a wonderful job of capturing the essence of the contentious battles between these two candidates. Not only that, the stories were hilarious, and had me chuckling, especially after seeing both candidates verbally spar with eachother during the numerous debates and campaign appearances. Great job Gini
What did you like best about this story?
It really helped point out just how ridiculous and ridiculously entertaining this election cycle has been.
What does Coulter Evans bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Soothing rich voice. Coulter's inflections and pace were both exactly what was needed to bring this laugh-out-loud story to life
If you could take any character from The Battles of Donnie and Teddy out to dinner, who would it be and why?
Donnie, of course. He seems to be the top dog if you will. I'd love to find out what makes him tick...and see if he's just a big bully, or somebody who truly commands respect. My guess is that he's a bully!
Any additional comments?
I have read some of Gini's other books and writings (Huffington Post) and find that she's really tapped into what a lot of regular citizens are thinking. I hope to see/read more from her in the weeks and months ahead as we near the Republican National Convention.
