Mmmmm....Economics Audiobooks on my iPod...
I'm listening to "The Big Three in Economics: Adam Smith, Karl Marx and John Maynard Keynes"

9 hours and 47 minutes of geekiness...I'm in heaven. :D

:rofl:

1. Wow, you are a nerd.
Though honestly I'm surprised I haven't done the same think with poli sci and sociology audiobooks.

2. Prepping for my roadtrip, thought I'd give it an initial listen...
Now you see why I need the car adapter. :D

And you should! :bounce:

Actually, this is really good for my American Econ History research paper. I'll be discussing all 3 in the paper. So, I study while I drive! :D

5. Nice.
I did actually have some good interviews with Mike Davis and a Chomsky audio book on my old iPod at one point. Good times.

6. Honey, if it makes you happy I'm all for it.
:rofl: I *SO* love ya. Please don't ever change.

Seriously, you're doing a 400-mile drive alone? Audio-anything sounds like a plan. And who's doing the narrating? And will there be lively theme music? :D

7. It isn't geekiness...well, not REALLY...
...it's called loving what you study :woohoo:

I'm almost done with a Masters in History, and I have about 60 hours of stuff from the Teaching Company on my computer (I keep rotating the content through my iPod)

"Origins and Ideologies of the American Revolution"... YAY!!!
