How Tom Clancy Explains America
Listen now
Description
Here’s an episode for anyone who thinks art can’t change the world. Tom Clancy topped the best seller charts for decades. He’s so popular that even his death couldn’t stop sales, and the flow of new products. Books, TV shows, movies, and video games all bear his name. But Clancy wasn’t just a popular author—he was also a geopolitical player. On the show this week is writer Matt Farwell, creator of the The Hunt For Tom Clancy substack. Farwell’s unique blend of memoir, history, and critique casts a light on the weird world we live in now. A world that Clancy helped create. https://thehuntfortomclancy.substack.com/ I would have liked to have seen Montana Over The Top in Texas The Teeth of the The Tiger The Sum of All Fears Angry Planet has a Substack!
