Overview of “The Terminal List” A very brief description of “The Terminal List”(4 minutes) 00:00-04:00 On his last combat deployment, Navy Seal James Reece's entire team was killed in a catastrophic ambush. When Reece discovers this was not an act of war by a foreign enemy but a conspiracy that runs to the highest levels of US government, he applies the lessons that he's learned in over a decade of constant warfare to avenging the deaths of his family and teammates. What Carr sets out to do / Purpose of the book This is a revenge tale, pure and simple. Reece becomes the angel of death and the tragedy that happens gives him just cause to transcend all laws and do whatever it takes to bring every corrupt individual to justice. The intended audience of the book / Who will benefit most People who love the military - esp. Navy SEALs People who love details in their stories People who love a good muscular thriller People who enjoy blood and action People who are angry and want some vicarious violence upon their enemies Who probably WON'T like this book?

Is this book Easy, Average or Difficult to read? / How long is it?

My first guest on the Tami Jackson Show* tonight will be Jack Carr. Jack Carr is a former Navy SEAL who led special operations teams on four continents as a Team Leader, Platoon Commander, Troop Commander and Task Unit Commander. Over his 20 years in Naval Special Warfare he transitioned from: an enlisted SEAL sniper specializing in communications and intelligence to a junior officer leading assault and sniper teams in Iraq and Afghanistan to a platoon commander practicing counterinsurgency in the southern Philippines to commanding a Special Operations Task Unit in the most Iranian influenced section of southern Iraq throughout the tumultuous drawdown of U.S. Forces. Jack retired from active duty in 2016. Check out his FULL (and impressive) bio: Listen as Jack and I talk about his tremendous first novel which debuts next Tuesday, The Terminal List. Brad Thor writes of Carr's freshman outing in the author world: "Absolutely awesome! So powerful, so pulse-pounding, so well-written – rarely do you read a debut novel this damn good." Chuck Norris writes of The Terminal List: "An extremely unique thriller! Absolutely intense!” As a huge fan of the late Vince Flynn, I'm here to tell you, you will love The Terminal List! Jack Carr and I will talk about being a Navy SEAL, and how that obviously plays into the story. As described at Amazon: A Navy SEAL has nothing left to live for and everything to kill for after he discovers that the American government is behind the deaths of his team in this ripped-from-the-headlines political thriller. On his last combat deployment, Lieutenant Commander James Reece's entire team was killed in a catastrophic ambush that also claimed the lives of the aircrew sent in to rescue them. But when those dearest to him are murdered on the day of his homecoming, Reece discovers that this was not an act of war by a foreign enemy but a conspiracy that runs to the highest levels of government. If you're a fan of the special ops thriller genre, this will be in your strike zone! Don't miss one minute of the interview with a name you'll hear a lot in the future, Jack Carr. *************** In the second 1/2 hour my guest will be Mark Weinberg. Mark Weinberg is a former speechwriter and advisor to President Ronald Reagan. He served on the 1980 Reagan campaign traveling staff, all eight years in the Reagan White House, and two years thereafter as Reagan's spokesman in his post-presidency office in Los Angeles. Mark is an experienced executive communications consultant who has held senior management positions at Fortune 500 corporations and the federal government. Weinberg currently runs his own communications consultancy, Weinberg Communications. Weinberg lives in New Jersey with his wife and their two children. Mark and I will be talking about his terrific book, Movie Nights with the Reagans: A Memoir, which debuts TODAY! As written on the Amazon book page: Former special advisor and press secretary to President Ronald Reagan shares an intimate, behind-the-scenes look inside the Reagan presidency—told through the movies they watched together every week at Camp David. Over the course of eight years, Mark Weinberg travelled to Camp David each weekend with Ronald and Nancy Reagan. He was one of a few select members invited into the Aspen Lodge, where the First Family screened both contemporary and classic movies on Friday and Saturday nights. Movie Nights with the Reagans is a nostalgic journey through the 1980s and its most iconic films, seen through the eyes of one of Hollywood's former stars: one who was simultaneously transforming the Republican Party, the American economy, and the course of the Cold War. Listen as Mark recounts his time spent with one of America's most beloved presidents and his adoring wife. Weinberg paints a warm picture of the Reagan's as only a trusted advisor could. Not only is this a wonderful memoir, it's also the perfect book as we enter Oscars week!
