This was a well informed, intelligent, critically thinking, direct, honorable, well-spoken man. May he rest in peace. Wish I had had the chance to sit by a fire with a drink in one hand, cigar in the other, and just talk with this man. That would have been a most enjoyable evening.

Tom Clancy called his key character Jack so he could continually use the phrase "Jack asked" in his writing.

He was so down to earth. Had the pleasure of meeting him at his penthouse in Baltimore.

Tom Clancy was a visionary. We're in 2020 and with the Coronavirus epidemic, this rings so true. May the US crush the Red Peril that is China.

RIP Tom Clancy

Jack Ryan's life in the books is basically the "Ah shit, here we go again" meme

[brianrunyon]

Huge fan of his novels. Glad other authors are continuing his work.

8:53 - 9:36 Thinkin' real hard about that in the wake of Ukraine-Russia conflict of March 2022.

It's so weird seeing people talk about the US army so just before 9/11

I had trouble finding an actual copy of this book for a long time when I was younger. I actually came into possession of the audio book first. Every time I hear Michael Prichard say OUT" In his Bondarenko voice I bust up laughing

[okedukamalu]

The Bear and the Dragon is my favourite TC novel

[kadenarnett]

I feel like he is very annoyed at Charlie and doesn't like him but is very subtle about it.

[YetAnotherYoutuber]

not to pick on the interviewer, i just find it funny that he has the face structure of videogame joker

[donaldallen]

as a Democrat I certainly don't agree with his politics but he was a hell of a writer

[ianray]

Him and Michael Chriton should be allowed to make all movie stories

[michealschmidt]

Good author can go into complex details though I like Vince Flynn both are great writers both RIP

[vicmclaglen]

10:36 Burns Charlie Rose's little attempt right into the ground. Not to be missed.

podcasting before it was called podcasting

[ZATennisFan]

I wonder what Mr Clancy would say about today’s world situation???
