Dave Barry’s History of the Millennium (So Far) Audiobook (Free)

A brilliantly funny go through the tumultuous recent times from the Pulitzer Prize-winning humorist.

Remember when everything would go to hell when Y2K struck?

That didn’t happen, right?

But what did happen? To supply just a little perspective on an extremely messed-up millennium (so far), the best Dave Barry slips into his historian’s robe (it’s plush terrycloth) and revisits the determining moments inside our country’s recent history. As an added reward, Barry quickly-we’re occupied here-tosses in the complete history of the final millennium, covering crucial turning points like the invention from the pizza by Leonardo da Vinci as well as the computer by Charles Babbage (who died in 1871 still waiting around to talk to tech support).

Fellow Americans, enough time offers come to bone up with Barry as he puts the hysterical in history.
