Take some time this week to remember your original happy hour: Saturday mornings as a kid, waking up at dawn, jumping on the couch with a bowl of chocolate cereal, turning on the ‘toons, tuning out the outside world and working your way into a sugar hangover before noon. This week, we talk Reacher with creator and author Lee Child and two interviews with “Jack Reacher” himself, Alan Ritchson (Smallville, Blue Mountain State)

Once “Jack Reacher” gets off a bus in the fictional town of Margrave, Georgia in Lee Child’s 1997 novel Killing Floor, we knew we were in for a hero unlike anything we’ve ever seen before. Built like a Michelangelo sculpture, Reacher is a drifter roaming the United States taking odd jobs and always finding himself in dangerous situations. He's a kind soul, always ready to help a person in need and do what’s right even if that means flexing his massive muscle and deadly military training to fight for truth and justice. This hero-of-few-words was such a pop culture smash success that new books, movies and TV shows just keep coming over 25 years later! You can catch the entire latest season over on Amazon Prime now.

We watched it. You should too.

Join Dan “Grim” Shea, Marke., and the “Retro Cool Nerd” Jimmy Leszczynski with Bleeding Cool Nerd to talk 28 novels, two Tom Cruise movies, two hit Amazon series seasons, plus two, count 'em one two Alan Ritchson interviews all about one of Lee Child’s most endearing characters… JACKED REACHER!
