Please recommend some audiobooks

My own recommendations are here. I haven't updated that list for a while, but I've been listing the books I've read each month over here instead, nearly all of which are audiobooks.

Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality: The Podcast and on iTunes. It's free.

You could also listen to ebooks via a text-to-speech app. While the inflection isn't lively, you get the advantages of being able to listen to almost any book and speeding it up so it doesn't take much more time than actual reading. I've found my brain is learning to process speech faster and faster as time goes by. Of course you can speed up a normal audiobook too, but inflection and varying voices will make it more difficult.

ETA: Repligo Reader lets you tts pdf files on Android. Universal Book Reader lets you tts other formats. Google Play Books allows tts for their ebooks.

Librivox has a very large assortment of free audio books. The catch is they are all in public domain, so they are mostly older works and they are all recorded by volunteers. However, I can say that I've found them an extremely excellent resource (I'm listening through Hobbes' Leviathan now).

So, if you'd like some older thinkers or scientists (Kant, Hume, Locke, Newton, Faraday, Mills, etc), they're a great resource.

"The Better Angels of Our Nature" by Steven Pinker.

The Checklist Manifesto by Atul Gawande

A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson

Why We Get Fat by Gary Taubes

Gang Leader for a Day by Sudhir Venkatesh

As far as fiction, Discworld has a lot of good audiobooks, and Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrrell is awesome.

Not mine, but a good set of recommendations:

Religion and Science by Bertrand Russell was interesting and informative. As a bonus, it's not that long.

A History of Western Philosophy by Bertrand Russell.

(To speed through books, I use VLC player, and then adjust the speed to 1.2X)

I have audiobook recommendations here.

Books (edited to include reasons)

Perfect Health Diet (dense, persuasive, hundreds of citations)

How to Fail at Almost Everything And Still Win Big (its very rational seeming for a self help book, his systems approach is interesting, the book includes some counter arguments to common memes (like questioning the direction of causality in the whole passion/success thing), he mentions other research and memes that will sound familiar to anyone who reads lukeprog self help posts, he assumes he and the readers are moist robots, it's self skeptical and cautious about naively assuming he knows why something seems to work)

Podcasts:

Zen Habits, Tim Ferriss Experiment, Conversations From the Pale Blue Dot

You might also find it worthwhile to search youtube for Ted Talks, lectures, interviews etc, and rip out their audio. If there is a popular book there is often a shorter free video of the author explaining and summarizing its basic gist.

I listened to the audiobook of Jonathan Haidt's "The Righteous Mind: Why Good People are Divided by Religion and Politics" over the summer and would recommend it. (That said, I got it while it was on offer and it appears to be rather more expensive now).

I don't know if you are also interested in podcasts, but in case you are I would recommend The Sequences (via Castify) in general, and possibly other things depending upon your personal interests.

Ah, I've already read HPMOR but might think about the spoken version. Might help clarify some of the examples I never quite understood to hear someone else speaking them. It's kind of odd how different the same work can feel when you read it the first time compare to when you read it again or hear it read by someone else.

Speaking of re-reading I really must re-read Worm one of these days, that was great, and maybe try Wildbow's new Pact story.

I listen to the odd podcast if an interesting-sounding one pops up in the Dawkins foundation facebook feed but I don't listen to any on a regular basis. Should probably look into them.
