He looked like a movie star. He sounded like the future. And for a moment, he made America believe in something again. But behind the charm, the suits, and the speeches, John F. Kennedy was walking a tightrope between legacy and rebellion. Between image and truth. Between power and the people who actually run things. JFK: The Man Who Went Off Script isn’t just another presidential biography. It’s a sharp, unflinching look at how one man stepped out of the role he was born to play and what happened when he did. From the dynastic grip of Joe Kennedy Sr.

What is artificial intelligence, really? Not the buzzwords. Not the hype. Just the real story — of how machines learned to learn, and how we trained them on everything we are. From Alan Turing and the Imitation Game to ChatGPT, deepfakes, and corporate arms races, Speaking in Code walks through the actual history of AI: It’s a fast, unfiltered walk through the code, the culture, and the chaos of how artificial intelligence actually happened — and what it’s replacing along the way. The machine didn’t come out of nowhere. We taught it. And it’s still listening.

Mozart was chaos. A boy wonder. A broke genius. A man who joked about farts and wrote music that made kings weep. This book isn’t a textbook. It’s a story. From the powdered courts of Europe to the echo of his Requiem, MOZART: The Man Who Was Born in Tune follows the full arc. The prodigy, the rebel, the romantic, and the ghost. You’ll meet the father who pulled the strings, the wife who stayed through the madness, the enemies who envied him, and the symphonies that bent light.

He wasn’t supposed to rule. He wasn’t even supposed to be seen. But when the middle son of a dying dictator stepped into power, he didn’t just inherit a country. He inherited the bomb. This is the true story of Kim Jong Un, the most mysterious and dangerous leader of the modern era.

George Orwell wasn’t just the author of 1984 and Animal Farm — He was the man who saw it all coming. From the jungles of British Burma to the slums of Paris, from the trenches of the Spanish Civil War to the propaganda halls of the BBC, Orwell lived through the machinery of power — and spent every ounce of his voice trying to tear it apart. Orwell: The Man Who Warned Us is a literary biography that doesn’t just tell you who Orwell was — it shows you how he became one of the most dangerous writers in history.

What is electricity? Not just in theory, but really. What is it? Where did it come from? Who figured it out? How does it move, store, think, and shape the entire world? This isn’t a textbook. It’s the real story of how humans stumbled into one of the most powerful forces in nature and slowly, painfully, turned it into the thing that runs civilization.

COLUMBUS: The Man Who Didn’t Discover America is a clear-eyed biography of one of history’s most mythologized figures. Drawing from primary sources, letters, and eyewitness accounts, this book traces the life and legacy of Christopher Columbus. From his early years in Genoa to his final voyage across the Atlantic. Rather than retelling the story through rose-colored legend, the book offers a grounded account of who Columbus actually was, what he believed, and what happened when he made landfall in the Caribbean.

He doesn’t breathe. He doesn’t bleed. He doesn’t age. But he can sue you, fire you, poison you, and replace you. THE MAN MADE OF PAPER is the terrifying true story of how a legal illusion became the most powerful “person” on Earth. Born from charters, shielded by law, and fed by profit, this artificial entity now owns your labor, your government, your identity, and your future. From the rise of the East India Company to the algorithmic firms of today, JJ walks step by step through the machine’s construction.

You were told the Bible was perfect. That it came from God. That it never contradicted itself. And that asking too many questions was dangerous. But not everyone agreed. This book follows the lives and arguments of philosophers, scholars, ex-pastors, skeptics, and former believers. People who read the Bible carefully, seriously, and sometimes devotionally... until it broke under its own weight. From Spinoza and Voltaire to Bart Ehrman and Francesca Stavrakopoulou, The Gospel of Doubt walks through the quiet collapse of certainty. Not with anger, but with clarity.

In Red vs. Blue, JJ cuts straight through the fog of American politics, tracing how we ended up with two massive political identities that nobody fully understands but everyone is expected to defend. This isn’t a policy book. It’s not a campaign book. It’s a book about labels, identity, and the long, messy history behind why the United States split itself in two.

They promised freedom. They delivered a script. When James Johnson signed on to knock doors for Alta Pest Control, he thought he was chasing the American Dream. Sunny neighborhoods, fat commissions, and a taste of entrepreneurial glory. Instead, he found himself inside a high-control sales cult dressed up as a summer job.

Why is one man blamed for everything? George Soros has been called a puppetmaster, a globalist, a threat to democracy, and a hero of it. Sometimes all in the same sentence. From collapsing currencies to funding civil rights and bankrolling prosecutors to appearing in conspiracy threads across the internet, his name now carries more weight than his actions ever did. This book cuts through the noise. SOROS traces how a Holocaust survivor turned hedge fund legend became one of the most feared and mythologized figures on the planet.

Bureaucracy doesn’t wear a uniform. It hides behind forms, signatures, waitlists, voicemails, protocols, and “I’ll have to check with my supervisor.” This is an audiobook about the machine we’ve all learned to live with. The one that slows everything down, spreads the blame, and strangles the very systems it claims to protect.

He’s the richest man alive, the loudest presence online, and the only person seriously planning to die on Mars. Elon Musk’s journey is unlike any other — from bullied kid in apartheid South Africa to the most polarizing figure on Earth. He built PayPal, nearly destroyed Tesla, crashed rockets for fun, and now controls the internet’s favorite town square. But this isn’t just a story about companies. It’s about simulation theory, brain chips, artificial intelligence, flame-throwers, and Mars.

He was crowned in gold and buried under a toilet. And in between, the world called him God. Haile Selassie ruled Ethiopia for over four decades — a modernizing monarch who stood toe-to-toe with Mussolini, walked out of exile like a prophet, and became the spiritual messiah of an entire global movement. To some, he was Africa’s last true emperor. To others, he was Jah Himself. From the smoke-filled hills of Jamaica to the lyrics of Bob Marley, The Lion of Judah lived on — not just as a man, but as a myth. This is the story of power, prophecy, betrayal, and rebirth. Crowned by men.

Aspirin changed medicine forever. But that was just the beginning. BAYER is the untold story of how one pharmaceutical company helped invent modern chemistry, aligned with fascism, trademarked heroin, used forced labor at Auschwitz, rebranded, rebounded, and quietly became one of the most powerful corporations on Earth. From industrial dyes to global drugs, from war crimes to billion-dollar cancer settlements, this book traces the long arc of Bayer’s rise and what it reveals about the system behind modern medicine. This isn’t just a company history. It’s a century of power, pain, and profit.

What if your allergies were caused by your birth? What if your emotions were ranked on a scale from 0.0 to God? What if all your trauma could be erased… by crying on a couch and saying it over and over again? Welcome to Dianetics, the original self-help system from L. Ron Hubbard that promised to cure your body, unlock your mind, and maybe even fix your vision. This book? Translates it. In What Dianetics Actually Says, JJ takes you line by line through the most bizarre, overconfident, trauma-obsessed psychology manual ever written and decodes it into something you can finally understand.

What if your job disappeared without anyone admitting it was ever a job at all? Welcome to the gig economy: a labor system built on loopholes, powered by apps, and sold as freedom. From Uber and DoorDash to Amazon Flex and Instacart, millions of people are working without being called workers with no benefits, no protections, and no boss to complain to when something goes wrong. In THE GIG ECONOMY, JJ exposes how tech companies rewrote the rules of work. This isn’t a book about the future of labor, it’s about the present we’ve already allowed.

What was communism really? And why won’t the dream die? In this book, JJ strips away the Cold War cartoons, authoritarian cosplay, and capitalist propaganda to ask a much simpler question: What if we didn’t have to live like this? COMMUNISM: The Dream That Got Buried isn’t a defense of tyrants or a call for revolution. It’s a story about the dream that said we could build a world without bosses, billionaires, or survival-for-sale economics. A dream that terrified the powerful, got twisted by dictators, and was buried under branding before it ever got a real chance.

Steve Jobs didn’t invent the future. He made it feel inevitable. From a California garage to global godhood, this is the story of the man who turned computers into companions, products into rituals, and simplicity into a cult. But beneath the keynote charisma and polished glass lies something deeper: obsession, control, intuition, rage, and raw design philosophy that reshaped the modern world. Jobs: The Man Behind the Glass goes beyond the black turtleneck myth to uncover the ghost still flickering inside every screen. Because what he built wasn’t just a company.
