In this meticulously researched classic of the JFK conspiracy genre that Library Journal calls "sensational", Mark North argues convincingly that President John F. Kennedy died as the result of a plot masterminded by Louisiana Mafia chieftain Carlos Marcello - and, more importantly, that FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover learned early on about the plan but did nothing to stop it. Hoover warned no one - not the Dallas police, not the Secret Service.

In this episode, Mark and Jeff discuss the decision making process for evaluating when the time has come to let your dog pass. It all flows from quality of life issues. Mark and Jeff discuss what has happened in the past in their experiences and what values should dictate your approach to helping understand when it is time to let go. Often a dog's suffering is related to late decisions and the desire to keep the dog going for personal reasons rather than the dog's quality of life.

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of A Short History of Drunkenness by Mark Forsyth, read by Richard Hughes. Almost every culture on earth has drink, and where there's drink there's drunkenness. But in every age and in every place drunkenness is a little bit different. It can be religious, it can be sexual, it can be the duty of kings or the relief of peasants. It can be an offering to the ancestors or a way of marking the end of a day's work. It can send you to sleep or send you into battle.
