Description

Bestselling author Jack Carr returns!!!!!!!!!!!!! In this episode we are talking about his brand new fiction thriller, Red Sky Mourning.
We also explore the profound impact of childhood reading and its ripple effects on life and career. Jack shares thought-provoking insights on loyalty, the ethical dilemmas of next-generation warfare, and the dark side of modern advertising, which now manipulates behavior and thoughts.
As technology races forward, Jack warns of the perils and potential of the fourth industrial revolution, questioning if new technologies are hindering deep thought intentionally. He delves into the wild, unregulated frontier of AI, drawing parallels to the Wild West.
Jack pays tribute to his parents for instilling a love of reading, a cornerstone that has influenced his journey. Reflecting on the simplicity of 80s summers, he contrasts it with today's entertainment-saturated world, advocating for the timeless value of books.
Tune in to hear Jack’s passion for promoting reading, the creative process behind his characters, and the many transitions life offers. This episode is a tribute to the power of a good book and the lifelong adventures it can inspire.

Childhood is finite at just shy of 9.5 million minutes. We only get one shot at it. One of the biggest decisions we make is how we will use that time. Research has confirmed time and time again that what children are naturally and unabashedly drawn to, unrestricted outside play, contributes extensively to every area of childhood development. The importance here cannot be understated. Every year we aim to match nature time with the average amount of American kid screen time (which is currently 1200 hours per year). Have a goal. Track your time outside. Take back childhood. Inspire others.
