James Patterson

All of the books, it's all problem solving. How do we solve that problem? I have a whole series, Walking My Combat Boots. We just did American Heroes about Medal of Honor winners. And Matt Eversman, who I deal with, Matt was the actual sergeant who was portrayed in the movie Black Hawk Down. Great guy, good friend of mine. has seen a lot of combat.

And I saw him doing some interviews with men and women who had been in combat, and he'd get them to talk about it. And I was watching these interviews, and I went to him, I said, Matt, and I had the title, Walking My Combat Boots, I'd like to do something. And the mission will be that if you've been in combat, you'd say Everson and Patterson got it right.

And if you're one of these people that like to BS, that you really understand things that you don't, You would read it and go, OK, I really didn't understand the military at all. And now I understand a lot better. But the problem was, OK, so Matt did most of the interviews. I did a few, but they're like 50 page interviews. That's not a book.

And the problem solving was my saying to Matt, look, I want to turn these into five or six page stories. So each person that's interviewed, you're going to get a sense for who that person is. why they went into the military, and then a couple other stories that are going to really be really interesting to read. So it's going to be a Pacey and read the American heroes.

Every single one of those stories could be a movie. It's just amazing. One of these guys was at Iwo Jima. This is way back, obviously, World War II. And he had a flamethrower. And each flamethrower was a 90-pound flamethrower. And he went running with this 90-pound thing. And he would go into these places where snipers were and flamethrow the snipers.

He did nine of these sniper outposts with a flamethrower on his back. And he had to reload it every time. Oh, my God. It's unbelievable. And it's hard to come by now. Duty, honors, things like that. And you just go like, well, I don't know, man. I think we need a little sacrifice. We don't seem to want to sacrifice. Well, you become pretty greedy, I think, about stuff. It's interesting.

It's the kind of thing that can get you in trouble. But part of it is, stop thinking that the government or the president is going to solve all your problems. Dude, take some responsibility for your life. You did some of this to yourself. And you kind of sit there and go, OK, I screwed up a little bit. And not all on the government. There have always been problems.

You always wanted things that could be a whole lot better. Oh, we'll get a new president. That'll solve it. Or we'll get a new coach for our team. That'll solve it. It might. This is quite a time to be discussing this a few days post-election for sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I try not to get too much into politics. I didn't get into it that much here in terms of where I sit on things, but...
