Podcast appearances and mentions of Don Winslow

We open the show with Sen. Chuck “You” Schumer (D-NY) starting to run out of new material for the fearporn train. On the flip side, Sen. Deb Fischer (R-NE) says it's far too early to panic and she said her constituents are okay waiting a bit to see how the Trump reciprocal tariff plan starts to unfold. This morning, President Trump even said he hates the initial pain, but is happy to see so many countries lining up to negotiate fair trade deals with the United States. Then, USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins had a great one-liner for CNN's Jake Tapper, while she was discussing the issues with unfair trade in the agriculture sector. Next, I take a moment to discuss how soulless some influencers are in our own country. I use a tweet by NY Time best-selling author Don Winslow as an example. I follow that up with propaganda from former White House Deputy Press Secretary Andrew Bates. If Trump is really out to hurt the little guy and give all the breaks to his billionaire buddies, why did he hurt the stock market like he did? CNN's Harry Enten reveals more interesting polling, with the overall message being that Americans see Trump taking us in a different direction and feeling like he needs more ability to accomplish his agenda. The SCOTUS just pulled the rug out from under activist D.C. District Court Judge Boasberg. Then, in another ruling a California judge had his injunction stayed as it relates to Trump's team being able to fire probationary employees. We get a sound bite from the Village Idiot, Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) where she perfectly illustrates the Left's belief in the soft bigotry of low expectation. And, she did it with her fake accent, while pretending she was at a comedy club. We get a sneak peek at Ellie Cohanim, who might be on the short list to replace Elise Stefanik for UN Ambassador. She wants to “DOGE” the UN and root out their issues with antisemitism. Finally, President Trump is set to sign an Executive Order putting emphasis on keep our clean-burning coal plants going. Then I add my thoughts on the need for more new generation nuclear facilities.

 The Buddies take their first foray into criminal enterprises, in City on Fire by Don Winslow. The book follows the Irish and Italian mobs as they fight for control of Providence, Rhode Island in the 1980s.

They got into arguing/chatting about, the negatives of loyal friends, nepotism, and having the name Pam. So pick up this crime/mob-thriller and join us for this weeks episode.

Then, stick around for a chat with AutoCrit's Daniel Kaplan! AutoCrit began humbly as the brainchild of an unpublished writer with dreams of becoming an author. She faced a common problem: how could she get expert, unbiased feedback on her writing without breaking the bank? Writers' groups, critique partners, and other beta readers weren't at the expert level, and friends and family weren't unbiased. Getting feedback took time, and the quality of the feedback was hit-or-miss. Hiring a professional editor was an expensive investment, especially for early, unpolished drafts. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/writersink/support

Danny Ryan doesn't see himself as ambitious — which is surprising, seeing as he's both stolen and made millions. But in his mind, he's just an average guy trying to survive in a world that would rather he not. Ryan is the central character of Don Winslow's sweeping crime trilogy that draws parallels to movies like “The Godfather” and “Goodfellas.” Readers first met Ryan as a mid-level Irish-American mobster in New England in “City on Fire,” which came out in 2022. One year later, Winslow released “City on Dreams,” which follows Ryan to Hollywood. And now, in 2024, Ryan is a Las Vegas casino mogul struggling to leave his life of crime in “City in Ruins.” It brings both the series and Winslow's writing career to a close.But not before he joins host Kerri Miller one more time on Big Books and Bold Ideas. Don't miss this warm and intimate conversation that pulls at the fascinating threads of Winslow's past — including his years spent as a Shakespeare director at Oxford, his stint as a private investigator and his abiding love of Africa. They also talk about how surfing taught Winslow to trust the writing process, why it took him 30 years to write the Danny Ryan series, and why he is confident that “City in Ruins” is his last book. Guest: Don Winslow has written 21 novels, including “The Border, “The Force, and “Savages.” His new book, “City in Ruins” completes his Danny Ryan trilogy and his writing career.

Battles of money, influence, and bribery soon follow.   After 26 books this is Winslow's last book as he's taking his talents to a new patriotic pursuit.

On today's 175th Episode of The Thriller Zone, now in our 6th Season, we're happy to invite Don Winslow into our home for a face-to-face interview that, as you'll quickly notice, is truly a one of a kind opportunity for this host, and for you as an audience member.Don, as you may know, is a renowned thriller writer who has decades of experience as a seasoned writer, creating one hit after another. Today, Don discusses his journey as an author and the challenges he faced in the publishing industry. Despite initial rejections and being labeled a cult writer, Winslow persevered and eventually achieved success. He credits his partnership with agent Shane Salerno as a turning point in his career. Together, they started a rebellion against the limitations imposed by publishers and Hollywood. In our in-depth conversation, Winslow reflects on the impact of his mother, a librarian, who instilled in him a love for books and the belief that he could achieve anything. He also shares his thoughts on retirement and the future of the publishing industry. Digging deeper and opening up, Don reveals the evolution of storytelling and the impact of technology and AI on the industry. He emphasizes the authenticity of human communication and the importance of bringing heart and soul to writing. As our show begins to wrap, Don allows us an inside peek, as he shares advice for aspiring writers, encouraging them to never give up and set doable writing goals. He reflects on the emotional impact of his City Trilogy, which includes City On Fire, City Of Dreams and City In Ruins, as well as the upcoming film adaptation, and concludes by discussing his future plans, including his commitment to fighting against neo-fascism and—on a much lighter note—spending more time with his wife, Jean.All in all, this will stand out as one of the very finest episodes of The Thriller Zone since I launched the podcast nearly three years ago.
