A little something for the weekend? Here’s my contribution to Bloomberg’s Weekend Edition this week…

Retailers are turning to cutting-edge tech to fight shoplifting—like weaving radio-emitting threads directly into clothes. It’s a bold move to curb billions in losses, but what does it mean for privacy and innovation?

This article and others are part of Bloomberg’s Weekend Edition—subscribers can hear more in the Bloomberg app.

🧼🧹🫧 Hate cleaning? Things could be worse… you might have been a housewife in the Dutch Golden Age… (check out the clip to be horrified in full!)

Sir Simon Schama's "The Embarrassment of Riches" is this week's new audiobook narration release from me. It unravels a nation that built itself from scratch, thrived in wealth and art, yet feared that prosperity might corrupt its soul (how, exactly, do you reconcile all that money with your Calvinist ethics?)

Schama’s in-depth, vivid storytelling has made this title a staple for anyone interested in the Dutch Golden Age and the social, cultural, and economic forces that shaped it. The book's broad appeal, meticulous research, and Schama's distinctive narrative style have helped it endure as a go-to resource, earning it a “classic” status in modern historical literature. As someone who's always admired Sir Simon and his writing, I'm thrilled he picked me to bring this title to audio for a new audience!

Replete with tales of revolts and rare whales 🐳, obsessive cleanliness and to***co troubles 🚬, frugal homes and wild tulip frenzies 🌷, "The Embarrassment of Riches" is available now from Tantor Audio, wherever you find your audiobooks.

Thanks to AudioFile magazine for this generous review of my narration of "The First Clash", recently published by Penguin Random House Audio.

The First Clash is a New York Times Bestseller, in which journalist and military historian Jim Lacey takes us beyond the textbooks to uncover the true story of the Battle of Marathon, debunking age-old myths, and revealing why Marathon still matters today. It's the story of how a small but determined Greek force defied the odds and changed the course of Western civilization.

"Narrator Mike Cooper is an invaluable asset here, firm, steady, anchoring the listener to the narrative most effectively when it most meanders. Listeners who already know something of this history will relish the depth of detail and expert narration." (AudioFile)

"The First Clash" is available now from Penguin Random House Audio, wherever you get your audiobooks. Click the link to read the full review.

With gripping accounts of medical breakthroughs and strange discoveries—from cannibalism-linked illnesses in New Guinea to life-saving advances—this audiobook is now available from Tantor Audio.

This week's new narration release from me is the true story of a poacher turned gamekeeper. "Predator of the Seas" is a story of redemption, and an incredible tale of a former slave ship turned abolitionist hero…

Once trafficking thousands of captured slaves as the Henriqueta, this Baltimore clipper was purchased by the Royal Navy and transformed into the Black Joke, a vessel that freed nearly 4,000 enslaved people off the coast of Africa. In this gripping biography Stephen Taylor unveils the ship’s dramatic double life, its role in ending the transatlantic slave trade, and the unsung heroes who made it happen.

History, courage, and justice all come together in this remarkable audiobook, which is available from today from Tantor Audio.
