"The Night I Surrendered to A Cow" by Greg Dobbs

This is Western Civilization? by Greg Dobbs

This is the fourth in a series of behind-the-scenes personal stories from Greg Dobbs, a three-time National Emmy Award-winning journalist and former foreign correspondent for ABC News. He shares the funny, dangerous, scary, stupid, distasteful, unwise, and unbelievable things journalists experience just getting to the point of reporting a story...adventures that possibly are even more interesting than the stories being covered, but which never become a part of the reported stories themselves. He tells his own stories with the humor, empathy, and enthusiasm that only someone who has been there could muster. Be sure to subscribe so you will not miss any episodes of Greg’s first-hand behind-the-scenes stories as a journalist. 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 shares 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. Be sure to check out his audiobook, Life in the Wrong Lane: Why Journalists Go In When Everone Else Wants Out.
