Announcing the debut of “The Marc Nonnenkamp” Show!

On September 2, 2009, the Barbara Bauer Literary Agency of Matawan, New Jersey released Episode number 53 of their Internet Podcast series titled “AWOL,” or “Authors Without Limits.”  The episode features a talk on my book titled “Volkswagen: the Peoples’ Car.”  This brand new book gives a comprehensive and concise history of the of the Volkswagen-Porsche Automotive Group of Germany and Austria, which has evolved into one of the very largest global business groups.  The book details just how this unique business group manages to thrive in spite of a bad global economic environment.  Here is the link to the Podcast: http://www.bbla.com/awol/awol.html.

I have owned and driven nothing but Volkswagen cars since I obtained a driver’s license in 1978.  My immediate family has owned Volkswagen cars since 1961, or one year prior to my birth.  They made the switch from Chevrolet (a General Motors product), which they had owned since 1956.  Before that, my parents and grandparents had owned Ford products from 1926 until 1956, or for three decades.

What is the reason for my enthusiasm for the VW product?  Read my book and find out why I and literally hundreds of millions of other people worldwide have been and still are happy customers of the extended Volkswagen Group.  Literally billions (not just millions!) of visits have been made to the successful VW enthusiast website www.thesamba.com, which also features a new link to my book.

Even if you are not specifically a VW enthusiast or even an automotive enthusiast, I believe that everyone wants to learn more about the reasons behind the current worldwide economic crisis.  How did we get here, why are we here, what will happen next, and what can we do better?  The immediate future may be dire, but the long-term future need not be.

I purchased my Volkswagen Jetta TDI Sedan (Turbo Direct Injection Diesel) through Al Fleming, who has been with Chapman Volkswagen-Porsche-Audi of Tucson, Arizona for more than two decades.  My aunt Ingrid Doerge Nonnenkamp worked with Volkswagen of Canada for many years before she retired, among those with Mr. J. Stewart Perkins who eventually became President of Volkswagen of America.  My friend Axel Berger now works with Volkswagen Financial Services in Germany, managing portfolios for both the Asia-Pacific region and for Latin America.  His father retired from a career of selling VW and Audi products near Braunschweig in Northern Germany.

My VW article also features regular financial updates regarding the emerging economic depression in which we unfortunately find ourselves today – more due to debt and credit inflation on the part of central banks than anything else.  This is resulting in a massive deflationary crash – the most severe socioeoconomic crash in at least 300 years of world history.

I invite everyone to find out why so many of us already love our Volkswagens.  611 people have subscribed to this podcast, and 56,010 people from all over the world have read my book on VW-Porsche and viewed the accompanying gallery of illustrations on this same site (www.theborromeofamily.com) since I went online in August of 2006 – thank you very much for your interest and for your visits!
