Life didn’t begin with a roar. It began with goo. Before brains, bones, bugs, or breathing, Earth was just a soup of chemicals getting zapped by lightning until something clicked. This is the story of what happened next. From the first self-replicating molecule to the rise of humans with god complexes, From Goo to You is a ride through four billion years of biology. The true story of how atoms turned into cells, cells turned into creatures, and creatures started asking, "What even is life?"

This isn’t a memoir. It’s not a miracle cure. And it’s not another promise built on fear. This is the book that finally explains it, all of it. What it is. How it works. Why it’s so hard to treat. What the treatments actually do. What the diagnosis does to your mind. And how the system around it got so big, so expensive, and so confusing. It’s biology. It’s industry. It’s psychology. It’s the full picture, from rogue cells to medical machines to the moment your life gets split in half by one word.

BUILT FROM BURGERS is a clear, sharp, and wildly listenable walkthrough of how life actually works. From DNA to digestion, from cell division to consciousness. No fluff. No filler. Just the full biological blueprint of you, explained molecule by molecule. This isn’t a textbook. It’s a systems manual. Inside, you’ll learn how your body builds itself from atoms, why proteins do everything, how cells specialize, how your brain talks to your gut, and what happens when it all breaks down.

What if reality doesn’t exist until you look at it? Quantum physics started as a fix for a math problem. Then it spiraled into the most accurate and most unsettling theory in science. This is the story of how we figured it out. From Planck’s desperate fudge to Feynman’s diagrams, from Schrödinger’s cat to the many-worlds interpretation, Quantum 101 walks you through every milestone of the quantum revolution. No mysticism. No equations without meaning. Just the actual story, told in a way that makes sense. Discover why particles tunnel through walls. Why entanglement breaks space.

Oops, All Atoms is a walk through what materialism actually means. Not in theory, but in practice. From love to morality to death, this book shows what breaks when you treat human beings like meat computers. James Johnson runs the model to its logical conclusion, and then dares to ask what’s on the other side of it. If you’ve ever felt like something about this world is off, you’re not alone. You’re just not made of atoms alone.

He didn’t just think. He built the tools for thinking. Born in Macedon. Trained by Plato. Tutor to Alexander the Great. But more than anything, Aristotle was a blueprint engineer. A mind that broke reality into categories, causes, and systems that still shape the world today. This is the full map of Aristotle’s legacy. Across logic, biology, politics, metaphysics, ethics, storytelling, and more. He didn’t give us the answers. He gave us the frameworks to figure them out.

The Tao Te Ching is one of the most translated books in human history — and one of the most misunderstood. It’s just 81 verses long. But inside those verses is a quiet manual for living, leading, letting go, and lasting. This book strips away the confusion. No commentary. No spiritual fluff. No academic fog. Just the Tao, in plain language — one verse at a time. Whether you're new to the Tao or circling back for the tenth time, this version meets you where you are — and takes you a little deeper.

For over six hundred years, the Catholic Church operated one of the most feared systems of control the world has ever seen — not through armies or kings, but through questions. Were you a heretic? A witch? A secret Jew? A woman with knowledge? A man with doubts? You wouldn’t know until they knocked. In this darkly gripping and deeply researched history, James Johnson walks you through the smoke-filled chambers and torchlit streets of the Inquisition — from its earliest whispers in medieval France to its bloody climax in Spain, Portugal, Goa, and the New World.

Gold plates. Lost tribes. Prophets in the Americas. You’ve heard of it. You’ve seen the commercials. But what does the Book of Mormon actually say? This book walks you through it — with no spin, no theology, and no sales pitch. From a family fleeing Jerusalem to wars in the wilderness. From ancient American empires to Jesus Christ descending in glory, it’s all here. Prophets, plates, and Jesus in America. Whether you believe it or not — this is what it says.

What happens when faith picks up a sword? From the blood-soaked streets of Jerusalem to the burning of Constantinople, Deus Vult tells the full, unflinching story of the Crusades — the wars that defined medieval Christendom, reshaped the world, and left behind a legacy of violence, myth, and madness. This isn’t your average textbook history. It’s raw, irreverent, and razor-sharp. JJ delivers a fast-paced, brutally clear narrative of how the Crusades actually happened — without the gloss, without the Sunday school edits, and without pretending anyone knew what they were doing.

What do shamans, Freud, rats, TikTok, and your mother all have in common? They’ve all shaped how we try to make sense of the human mind. Psychology 101 is the crash course you never got. A sharp, irreverent walk through the strange saga of how humans have studied humans. From ancient soul-healing rituals to modern therapy apps, this book traces the rise of psychology across twelve iconic chapters. You’ll meet the gods of the field (Freud, Jung, Skinner, Maslow), the ghosts they chased (trauma, shadow, madness), and the machines that took over (algorithms, feeds, and digital brains).

What if the Bible was only half the story? In 1945, a sealed jar was unearthed in the Egyptian desert. Inside: a set of ancient texts that no one was supposed to read. Known now as the Nag Hammadi Library, these 1,600-year-old writings include lost gospels, secret revelations, and alternative takes on Jesus, God, creation, and reality itself. This book walks you straight into the fire. Not with dogma — but with myth, metaphor, and the actual words the early Church buried. You’ll meet the Demiurge, a false god who thinks he’s the real one. You’ll hear Jesus speak in riddles.

Charles Darwin didn’t set out to destroy the old story of life. He just couldn’t look away from the cracks in it. From the deck of the Beagle to the hills of the Galápagos, Darwin saw what others missed — tiny details, local variations, uncomfortable truths. His theory of natural selection reshaped biology, shattered theology, and sparked one of the most dangerous ideas in human history: we are not separate from nature… we are subject to it. This is the story of a quiet man who changed the world — not with force, but with focus.

A sacred herb. A stoner joke. A billion-dollar industry. A criminal offense. Cannabis has worn a thousand masks — medicine, menace, miracle, meme — depending on the era, the culture, and who was holding the power. In High Society, JJ delivers a sharp, surprising, and deeply human history of the plant that refuses to stay in one box. From ancient rituals in India and burial rites in Scythian tombs to jazz clubs, sweat lodges, courtrooms, and dispensary chains, this book follows weed's journey through the world's empires, religions, revolutions, and contradictions.

He wasn’t just the man who discovered gravity. He was the man who tried to measure God. Isaac Newton is often remembered as the cold genius who sat under an apple tree and changed the world with a single thought. But the truth is far stranger — and far more human. Heaven’s Codebreaker peels back the myth to reveal the obsessive, secretive, visionary mind behind modern science.

For centuries, college was a temple — a place of ideas, inquiry, and dusty robes. But somewhere between the monastery and the marketing department, something changed. In Campus, Inc., JJ takes listeners on a sly, engaging journey through the history of higher education. From theology lectures in medieval Europe to stadium-sized campuses with climbing walls and billion-dollar football programs, this is the story of how college became a business — and how success got sold, one loan at a time. This isn’t a takedown. It’s a timeline.

Before we knew anything else, we had to decide what mattered. This is the story of that decision. History 101 is a time-bending, mind-bending deep dive into the very idea of history itself — how it started, who told it, what got erased, and why it still shapes everything we believe about ourselves. From firelight myths to Mesopotamian propaganda, medieval scribes to Enlightenment idealists, textbook wars to TikTok historians, this book tracks the strange evolution of how humans record the past — and how those records reflect the present more than we like to admit.

What does it really feel like to live in the world’s most powerful police state? Not from the outside. Not from the headlines. From the inside. This book isn’t a political exposé. It doesn’t rant. It doesn’t accuse. Instead, it walks — through the apartments, schools, subways, offices, phones, and daily routines of modern China. Life Inside China is calm, neutral, and observational — but quietly devastating. It shows, without saying, how surveillance becomes normal… How silence becomes safety… And how freedom fades not with violence, but with optimization.

The CIA has shaped world history from behind the scenes for over 75 years—through spycraft, propaganda, coups, mind games, surveillance, and a whole lot of denial. This book walks through the actual history, one operation at a time. No hype. No spin. Just what happened. From Cold War beginnings and MKUltra experiments to media manipulation, secret prisons, drone strikes, and digital warfare, The CIA covers the major programs and turning points that changed not just American policy—but global reality. If you’ve ever wondered what the CIA actually does—this is the answer.

What do you get when you mix sun gods, death gods, dragon-slaying storm brothers, and a mirror that brought back the light? You get the Kojiki—the oldest book in Japan, the sacred origin story of a nation, and the mythic scroll that crowned emperors for over a thousand years.
