Ray Porters voice brought these novels to life in such a way that Jacks words have the ability to punch me in the face, and the heart. And Ray has made a perfect series even better, If that was even possible!!

@Cracklin 3 года назад

Narrators make a huge difference. Poor narrators can ruin an experience, even if it’s a great book, but good ones like Ray Porter make it much more enjoyable so it’s worth following the good ones.

@corpsman1980 3 года назад

The best example of this is Brotherhood of the Rose. Absolute worst narration I've encountered to date.

@MakerInMotion 3 года назад

Ray Porter understands the difference between narration and voice acting. My least favorite audiobook narrators are the ones who get in the way by narrating like they're trying to win an Oscar.

I'm probably going to be murdered for this but that happened to me with Dave Grossman in On Killing. Dave is a genius and his content is awesome, but he read the book himself, and although I finished the book and tried to make the best of it, felt that having an actual professional doing the reading would've made the experience very different.

@scotts6157 3 года назад

It would be cool to have Ray show up in the TV adaptation. An idea could be the senior NCIS agent. Probably too late, but would be awesome for audiobook listeners.

@steveg3593 3 года назад

Best voice actor in the world! He brings everything to life. Perfect fit for your audio books. Perfect match!

@macbrun7 3 года назад

Ray Porter has been one of my favorite narrators for years. He brings true life to the books he presents and his voice range is phenomenal.

@princeofmoskova 2 года назад

My wife is legally blind and we listen to books all the time. We recently found your books Jack and we LOVE them! Ray Porter brings them to life!

@josepha.suttonjr2789 Год назад

Ray Porter nailed your books...period! I am dyslectic and reading is slow so I like audio books and nobody comes close to Ray Porter. His mastery of accents, difficult languages, and diversity of voices is "off the chain". Thank you Ray Porter.

@jamessigmon6725 3 года назад

I was hooked on this series after seeing Jack on a posting from Black Rifle Coffee. So I had to start from the beginning and was hooked right away. Ray does such an amazing job that listening to other narrators doesn’t sound right. I’ve DL’d other audible booked just because they were narrated by Ray and haven’t been disappointed at all. Can’t wait for the next book after Devil’s Hand!

@HappyLemon03 Год назад

Same!

@GrizzAxxemann 3 года назад

Ray Porter, Scott Brick and Chris Baskous are three of my favorite narrators.

@teresastewart1148 3 года назад

Powerful ... interesting. I am a book reader and after a ski patrol instructor class about 20 years ago - the instructor suggested exploring “other” modes to be better able to connect teaching material to students. Became an audible fan - Ray Porter is awesome in his Jack Carr characters. You WILL be hooked by both the books (hard copy) and the audible. Complex and complete. Thank you both for what you do for our entertainment.

@TheCrewReviews 3 года назад

Ray Porter. Jack Carr. You can't get any better than that! This interview was entertaining, informative, and like Jack's previous episodes, well worth a listen.

@nathanholm2669 Год назад

First time I listened to Ray was Outlaw Platoon. After that I went on a kick of listening to books not because of what they were but because he was the voice. It was because of his reading the terminal list that it lead me to these books. So thankful for both of these men's work.

@wyldewest278 3 года назад

I love Ray Porter! He is awesome a with your books and I love his work with the Joe Ledger novels as well!

@Xplizzit 2 года назад

Cant wait for the next book. Ray Porter is the perfect voice for your books. His voice seems like he knows what he is talking about. I have read all your books and listened to then twice.

@philipschmidt6367 3 года назад

Another great podcast! I was listening on my laptop an had to go to another room , I thought you were having a conversation with James Reece. Ray Porter was a great pick for narration. Two Thumbs Way Up!

@ChrisDiClemente 3 года назад

Hey Jack and Ray, I’m an oyster farmer from Rhode Island and reading and listening to both of u definitely makes the day go by slow but slow smooth and smooth is fast, keep writing ur killing it

@loue6563 Год назад

I used to think why would I listen to a book. But then my eyesight got pretty bad and I just couldn’t read anymore. Then I discovered audiobooks and was so relieved. So I very much appreciate those who allow me to still have access to books.

@NFCRACKER 3 года назад

Got my Devil’s Hand yesterday! Great books brotha! Tight voice work too!

@seanself75 3 года назад

I am little more than half way through the Terminal list. He does an exceptional job. I also appreciate as a native San Diegan the in depth descriptions of my home town you truly capture the beauty of this city. I can't wait to finish it and move on to the next one.

@corpsman1980 3 года назад

Am I the only one who sees this very nice sweet natured guy (Ray Porter) and is stunned because he usually is portraying a tough bruiser character. He's so nice! It's a testament to his ability and craft. 4/4 🌟🌟🌟🌟

@yunnyramirez1255 2 года назад

Ray Porter is who I search for when I don’t know what I want to read! When he brought up Jonathan Maberry I was so happy, I really enjoyed his performance of the Joe Ledger series I have the books and audio of those as well as the Jack Carr books and even when I read in my head I hear his voice, that’s how well he performed the books. I also just finished Project Hail Mary and I can’t recommend that enough.

@robertconaway4451 3 года назад

Ray Porter is awesome! I continued Audible books, because of Ray's books. Thank you for researching and finding Ray.

@daviddarlingauthor 3 года назад

Huge fan of Ray (you as well Jack!) great interview.

@stiglarsen5632 3 года назад

It is amazing to watch these two people interact. It is so easy to see that they both really burn for what they do and are genuinely interested in what the other person is saying. I agree that Mr. Ray porter is one of the best, if not the best, narrator in the business. First time I heard his voice was when he was narrating the Don Winslow books “The Power of the dog” and then “The Cartel”. If you have finished all four James Reese books, then I highly recommend these books by Don Winslow as your next project. I wish you all the best …

@Ghillie-bp6tl 3 года назад

Amazing depth. Recognition of someone that isn't normally recognized. Great perspective from someone I'm listening to with your books.

@ctribby 3 года назад

Ray Porter and RC Bray are two of my favorites. I've enjoyed Ray's narrations from the Jonathan Mayberry books, these books, and the Galaxy's Edge Tyrus Rechs trilogy.

@chonaguernsey1524 2 года назад

Ray Porter is absolutely amazing. I search for audiobooks that he narrates.

@lorenjennings1127 3 года назад

After watching this very interesting and enjoyable video, it was like the curtain was being pulled back to reveal the Wizards of Oz. When I find a narrator like Ray Porter, I follow them. He is very professional at his craft and I appreciate his work. AND I was very excited to learn of the movie being made of your first book. Thank you!

@MegadethTillDeth 3 года назад

The intro always reminds me of the Alan Wake video game. One of my favorites. Salute Mr. Carr thank you for this episode, had no idea about this gentlemen and am glad to have listened.

@ColtCommander45 3 года назад

He is amazing and he does make me feel like I'm reading the book. Great choice.

@ritchschut1997 3 года назад

For people like me who are usually on the road 14+ hours a day, audio books are huge. Great author, great narrator!! I hope that both of you gentleman keep up the excellent work!! Thank you both for doing what you have done and do!

@creilly907 3 года назад

Discovered this series through the Joe Ledger series and Ray Porter. He's as important to the audiobook experience as the book itself.

@zachbalderrama4914 3 года назад

Just finished the Terminal List and started True Believer. Really drew my attention. Really enjoyed the first book and excited to see the journey Reece goes on. Great job.

@pharmazan1091 2 года назад

I started listening to Mr. Porter since Brian & Wilson days. He’s the perfect person to play the Navy Seal voice for James Reece.

@MegadethTillDeth 3 года назад

I prefer owning a physical copy, and reading it over listening. I've tried and can't seem to like it. Perhaps part of getting old. But lots of respect to Ray Porter.

@Jordan882007 3 года назад

Yes the Best Voice Actor in the world is so true. I am on my 3rd listen through of Jack Carrs books leading into the Devils Hand!! Thank you Jack and thank you Ray !

@LordPerique 3 года назад

Great episode as always

@Spiderweb444 6 месяцев назад

Reading the devil's hand atm and thanks for all the books you suggested towards the end. And also being a fan of dc comics, I loved his performance as Darkseid in the movie and hope that he reprises the role again someday.

@kenan82ify 8 месяцев назад

Thank you Jack for your words and Ray for your elocution (bringing the words to 3D color with smell-o-vision resolution).

@markelliott3498 3 года назад

Even though I don’t listen to the Audible version of books, I have enjoyed listening to Ray Porter talk about his work. I watched his The Crew Reviews interview and now this one. Very well done interview!

@dustinmarquand5301 3 года назад

By far my favorite reader/ voice actor! I search for books and listen just because Ray is involved.

@thenoclue90 3 года назад

The best intro to a podcast of all time and also the greatest voice for narration.

@yvangagnon8843 3 года назад

I discovered Ray when I listened to Howard Wasdin's "Seal Team 6" and I thought he gave life to the book.

@sentfromdaniel 3 года назад

Also, See you and Jon next week Ray! Very excited

@Jeffro5564 3 года назад

@chris2956 3 года назад

Great look inside how the audiobook sausage is made. Also great to see you on Rogan yesterday.

@sentfromdaniel 3 года назад

An on the fly message in the next audiobook would be awesome! 😂 Jack thank you man for getting this book out to us. My weekend is starting with “The Devils Hand”. Sincerely

@MakerInMotion 3 года назад

I breathe a sigh of relief when I'm shopping Audible and the narrator is either Ray Porter or John Lee.

@brisonpalmer6730 3 года назад

My first audio book is the Terminal List and I plan on buying all of the Jack Carr books on audio.

@jefferyadams3227 3 года назад

Ray does a great job on you books. I do all of them in Audio....

@YahushasDisciple 3 года назад

How cool is it now to put a face with the voice.... I’m hooked, and on book 3. Ray has the ability to jump from a female voice to an Arab dialect. Just outrageously excellent!!

Jonathan Mayberry's character Joe Ledger is probably my favorite character in all the books I have listened to

@withoutfurtheradoforever 3 года назад

Thanks for the name drop, Bro!

@mabrrm 3 года назад

Jack, your books rock dude, but they are even better with Ray Porter reading them to us. By the way, I don't think I have ever seen a Navy Seal go fanboy before. Pretty cool dude. Now I don't feel so strange. I am glad you found Ray. Jonathan Maberry and the Joe Ledger series and the Bobiverse stories are good read/ listens???? as well. Keeping on writing brotherman.

@susangebhart7195 3 года назад

Listening to The Terminal List now - great job gentlemen ! House of Cards meets Tom Clancy …..

@JackTavern629 2 года назад

Ray is a pretty dope dude 🤙🏼

@shanehedges1349 3 года назад

Love these books just started the new one it’s great so far. While waiting for the new one to come out start listening to more ray porter stuff like tier one. Also a good book series. It’s a lot like jack Carr stuff. Jack definitely pick the right guy to read his books.

@jasonturgeon195 3 года назад

Ray Porter could read the phone book and it would be captivating.

@royridley5142 3 года назад

Ray always get the job done.

@jentheredhead4698 2 года назад

Ray is the GOAT. Killer nice guy

@whitehummus3772 3 года назад

I find the best way to read a book is to put headphones on and play some music that fits the scenes or tempo of the book. If I’m listening to something like say Mark Greaney I might listen to something from a Call of Duty soundtrack. If it’s something about the Cold War then maybe something from Tchaikovsky. To me that helps me get my mind right.

@fixpedalboards1969 Год назад

“…well well, looks like we got ourselves a reader”

@geebskerbal2771 3 года назад

The voice of James Reese and John Dempsey. This guy absolutely dose the best job on audible.

@mikemarfell6943 3 года назад

Was Ray Porter wearing a Blues for Allah T-Shirt? This was such an interesting insight into the process, I am now an even BIGGER fan of Ray. Hope Jack has him on regular

@michaelmay130 3 года назад

Ray Porter is James Reece just like George Guidall is Mitch Rapp and Gabriel Allon

@chadstocking7174 3 года назад

When you mentioned adaptations of book to movies, I think of Sahara. Dirk Pitt was never Mathew McConahay, and steve Zahn was not my image of Al Giordino.

@teleandtwin65 3 года назад

Ray’s is the voice of Jack Carr. He is voice acting is great. I get lost in his telling of the story. I love the way the “he said, she said stuff” is dropped.
