Description

Jack Carr grew up with a love of reading, and when he joined the Navy SEALs, he always carried a book with him into battle. But when we left the military life to focus on his family, a new career as a bestselling author flourished. Now his books have been adapted into two hit Amazon Prime Video series: The Terminal List starring Chris Pratt, and The Terminal List: Dark Wolf starring Taylor Kitsch.

In this episode, Jack reveals how his love of reading fuelled his military career, the lessons from his SEAL training he still carries with him today, and how his experience has made him a better storyteller today.
