After a lifetime in broadcasting, Greg Dobbs, a two-time National Emmy Award-winning journalist and former foreign correspondent for ABC News, shares the funny, dangerous, scary, stupid, distasteful, unwise, and unbelievable things journalists experience just getting to the point of reporting a story...adventures thatpossibly are even more interesting than the stories being covered, but which never become a part of the reported stories themselves. He reads his own stories with the humor, empathy and enthusiasm that only someone who has been there could muster.

Greg has covered news in more than 80 countries and in 49 states. He tells tales from the Soviet Union and Saudi Arabia, Beirut and Budapest, Egypt and Afghanistan, Uganda and Iran, Sudan and Salt Lake City (the execution of Gary Gilmore). He also relates adventures from Poland and Northern Ireland, Yemen and Libya, and the native American occupation of Wounded Knee. The events are a part of history. Today, correspondents at home and abroad are doing the very same things he has done for decades: living life in the wrong lane.
