  An intimate and freewheeling portrait of John Madden through the NFL legend's own words 
  John Madden is synonymous with football. He was the television face and voice of the nation’s most popular 
  sport, the namesake of its best-selling sports video game, and the man with the highest career winning 
  percentage of any NFL coach. 
  Despite his international fame, there was a side of Madden known only to those who listened to morning radio 
  broadcasts in the San Francisco Bay Area. That’s where Madden grew up, lived, and died. It's where for decades 
  he found joy in a daily chat with his hometown radio station: a chance to unwind, tell stories, and impart his 
  own brand of wit and wisdom. 
  In Mornings With Madden, Stan Bunger—the man most often on the other side of the mic—illuminates this 
  larger-than-life figure, drawing upon memories of more than fifteen years of daily broadcasts, backed up by 
  thousands of recordings of those conversations. Readers who adored Madden’s football acumen and quirky 
  personality on NFL broadcasts will get to know the father, husband, bad golfer, dog owner, lover of roadside 
  diners, and philosopher whose personality dominated our radio chats. 
  Featuring moving reflections alongside Madden's own words, this is a treasure trove of wry observations, 
  self-deprecating humor, clear-eyed thinking about sports and society, and the “Maddenisms” that endeared the 
  legendary coach to millions.

  This is small part of the introduction of the book: Kailash Satyarthi is a name synonymous with the fight against child labor. A Nobel Peace Prize laureate, Satyarthi has dedicated his life to rescuing children from exploitation and advocating for their right to education. His unwavering commitment to this cause has made him an inspiration to millions around the world. 
  Satyarthi's journey began in the small town of Vidisha, Madhya Pradesh, India, where he witnessed first-hand the plight of children forced into hazardous labor. Deeply moved by their suffering, he resolved to make a difference in their lives. In 1980, at the age of 26, Satyarthi quit his job as an electrical engineer to dedicate himself full-time to the cause of child liberation. He founded Bachpan Bachao Andolan (BBA), which translates to "Save Childhood Movement" in English. BBA quickly became a grassroots movement, organizing raids on child labor hotspots and rescuing children from exploitation. 
  Satyarthi's work was not without its challenges. He faced opposition from powerful vested interests who profited from child labor. He was threatened, harassed, and even imprisoned. But Satyarthi never wavered in his resolve. He continued to fight for the children, using his voice and his actions to raise awareness and demand change.

  Fiona Goodwin first kissed a girl at the age of eighteen in 1970. She was as shocked as anyone, and her confession to the pastor led to a failed Linda Blair-style exorcism. The odyssey that followed included training as a nun in Italy, a starring role as Satan with a wandering troupe of missionaries in Honduras, film sets in Hollywood, The Comedy Store in LA, a five-star review at the Edinburgh Festival 2019, and eventually a journey with ayahuasca in Peru.    A love story of epic proportions and the struggle to shed the cult of fundamentalist Christianity are at the heart of this story. Its universal appeal is in the courage to tell the truth: everybody has the choice to keep the status quo and live a muted version of themselves, but this memoir is a rallying cry for anyone, straight, gay, or otherwise who has denied the bigger truth of who they are.FIONA GOODWIN combines a flourishing private therapy practice in Los Angeles with touring the one-person stage play A Very British Lesbian. In the shadow of the pandemic, Facebook Live gave her a new platform. Gay women from all over the world flocked to her bi-weekly shows. “Corona Live Poetry Left Coast Lesbian Lunch Crying in Bed with Fiona Show” has become a sanctuary for lesbians. Online workshops have naturally evolved from it. This year Goodwin will resume touring the stage version of the book in New York, Los Angeles, London, and Sydney.For more information visit WWW.FIONAGOODWIN.COM
