Br. Bill at 7:26pm EST on 11/1/10 Reply w00t!Man, you are not kidding. The Secret is a shite-pile.Maybe for your next episode, you can continue the theme by reviewing The Celestine Prophecy. To paraphrase "2001": My god, it's full of crap.I am inspired by this book to persue a dream of mine. After all, if this load of crap can get published, then maybe any truckload of stupidity I can come up with can get published too.Speaking of prophecies, this book can be useful if you mention Self-fulfilling prophecy. You think it, you act it, it's done. But this rarely happens.Thanks to alert listener "Megan" for pointing out that we never actually said "We're reading The Secret by Rhonda Byrne" in our opening. We regret the error.
