Resumen del Editor
Living legend and lifelong activist Billie Jean King talks about what it takes to stand up and fight for equality, regardless of the circumstances. Fifty years ago, King and eight other female tennis players, known as the Original Nine, bravely put their careers and reputations on the line to fight for equal pay and equal footing for women’s tennis, with the indispensable help of promoter Gladys Heldman, the founder and publisher of World Tennis magazine, and the groundbreaking sponsorship of Joseph Cullman III, the CEO of the Philip Morris Company. When the Original Nine signed symbolic one-dollar contracts to stage their first breakaway tournament in Houston, ignoring threats from the existing tennis establishment, it was the start of the pro tennis tour for women as we know it and paved the way for modern stars to earn tens of millions in career prize money today.

In this spirited account, Billie Jean King details her life's journey to find her true self. She recounts her groundbreaking tennis career - six years as the top-ranked woman in the world, 20 Wimbledon championships, 39 grand-slam titles, and her watershed defeat of Bobby Riggs in the famous "Battle of the Sexes". She poignantly recalls the cultural backdrop of those years and the profound impact on her worldview from the women's movement, the assassinations and anti-war protests of the 1960s, the civil rights movement, and, eventually, the LGBTQ+ rights movement.

In his early 20s, Curtis Jackson, known as 50 Cent, rose to the heights of fame and power in the cutthroat music business. A decade ago, the multi-platinum selling rap artist decided to pivot. His ability to adapt to change was demonstrated when he became the executive producer and star of Power, a high-octane, gripping crime drama centered around a drug kingpin's family. The series quickly became "appointment" television, leading to Jackson inking a four-year, $150 million contract with the Starz network - the most lucrative deal in premium cable history.

With his now-legendary store on 125th Street in Harlem, Dapper Dan pioneered high-end streetwear in the 1980s, remixing classic luxury-brand logos into his own innovative, glamorous designs. But before he reinvented haute couture, he was a hungry boy with holes in his shoes, a teen who daringly gambled drug dealers out of their money, and a young man in a prison cell who found nourishment in books. In this remarkable memoir, he tells his full story for the first time.

Stephen A. Smith has never been handed anything, nor was he an overnight success. Growing up poor in Queens, the son of Caribbean immigrants and the youngest of six children, he was a sports-obsessed kid who faced struggles, from undiagnosed dyslexia to getting enough cereal to fill his bowl. As a basketball player at Winston-Salem State University, he got a glimmer of his true calling when he wrote a newspaper column arguing for the retirement of his own Hall of Fame coach, Clarence Gaines.

Best-selling author Bryan Burrough recently made a shocking discovery: The small town of Temple, Texas, where he had grown up, had harbored a dark secret. One of his high school classmates, Danny Corwin, was a vicious serial killer. In this chilling tale, Burrough raises important questions of whether serial killers can be recognized before they kill or rehabilitated after they do. It is also a story of Texas politics and power that led the good citizens of the town of Temple to enable a demon who was their worst nightmare.

In this fascinating audio documentary Aykroyd “gets the band back together”, taking listeners on a road trip through time—from late nights in the early days with John Belushi at Dan’s speakeasy in Toronto, to working with blues legends Aretha Franklin, James Brown, and Ray Charles on The Blues Brothers movie, through the founding of House of Blues, the Blues Brothers 2000 sequel, and beyond.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity. Then, on April 24, 2018, authorities arrested 72-year-old Joseph James DeAngelo at his home in Citrus Heights, Calif., based on DNA evidence linked to the crimes. Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.

In a gay nightclub in Orlando on June 12, 2016, the shooter, Omar Mateen, murdered 49 people and wounded 53 others. The attack was the deadliest act of violence against the LGBTQ+ community in US history and the deadliest terrorist attack in the United States since 9/11. But there’s a story you haven’t heard. The FBI had a secret history with the shooter and his father. To obscure that history, the FBI pushed a false story that the media dutifully carried—that the attacker was a secretly gay Islamist extremist who had chosen to target Pulse and planned the attack for weeks.

I thoroughly enjoyed all of Billie Jean King‘s messages and advice in this audiobook. She herself has achieved so much and yet she emphasizes the importance of teamwork and relationships with others to her accomplishments.And the soundtrack with Sarah Bareilles’ music was awesome!

Women’s rights are human rights!
It’s an inspiring story that is so relevant to today’s human rights moment we are in. It shows that one person can make a difference and drive change towards equality. It’s told in a casual way where you feel Billie Jean is just having a regular conversation with you. It’s easy to follow and shares an insiders view to the biggest victories in women’s professional sports.

Wow, it really hit me. This really helped me in my journey to find my passion. And I think it will for you too. This was a little too short, but overall great title. Would have love just a little bit more aspects of the how in this, but I still loved it. If you only have an hour to listen, I would highly recommend this.

Excellent story, reads a little dry
This story is definitely worth hearing but it reads a little slow. My recommendation: listen at 1.5 speed. Fast enough to understand the words but slow enough so that Billie Jean King doesn’t sound like a chipmunk. Highly recommend!

It was a pleasure to hear Billie Jean King tell her story about the landscape of girl’s sports in 1950s and the shamateur “women’s” tennis scene of the 1960 and 1970s. I especially appreciated learning about her personal drive towards equality in her sport starting in 1956 and the way that she grew this longing to include all people in all ways. I’ve always thought BJK was interesting. I’m not specifically a tennis fan, but after hearing her story I can say with certainty that I’m a Billie Jean King fan! This was a great read.

Billie Jean King - she explains her role in forging equality for women in athletics.
Billie Jean King gives an excellent account of her struggles and of her accomplishments in the world of athletics. The women’s movement in America owes her big time. I was very impressed by her delivery and her thoroughness. Every woman in America should listen to her story.

I had no idea about this amazing story! Billie Jean King is wonderful and an absolute joy to listen to ❣️ This is a history that should be told far and wide... hmm... since it’s women’s history we must take extra effort to distribute it, but sooo worth the listen! Thank you Billie Jean for taking the time to document this 😊
