Thank you so much for listening. We’ve got a great guest today with author Mark Greaney.  #1 NYT bestselling author Mark Greaney’s debut international thriller, THE GRAY MAN, was published in 2009 and became a national bestseller and a highly sought-after Hollywood property. Netflix released the film version of THE GRAY MAN, starring Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, and Ana de Armas, in 2022.  I’ve read “Burner,” and loved it.  You will too, as you will our interview, which I’ll get to in just a moment.  But, quickly, if you missed any episodes, last week was our 698th episode, when I spoke to Washington Post journalist and author Philip Bump who has written the new book “The Aftermath: the Last Days of the Baby Boom and the Future of Power in America”  Two weeks ago, I spoke with when I spoke to Smithsonian Associate, Newsweek editor, journalist and author, Mark Whitaker who has written the new book ‘Saying It Loud: 1966—The Year Black Power Challenged the Civil Rights Movement’   Wonderful subjects for our Not Old Better Show audience…If you missed those shows, along with any others, you can go back and check them out with my entire back catalog of shows, all free for you, there on our website, NotOld-Better.com

They both want him, but for different reasons. That's a problem for tomorrow. Today they need to keep him and themselves alive. Right now, it's not looking good.
