Carol Lin Interview Episode 653

What does it mean to deliver the news… when you're living through history in real time? In this episode, I'm joined by groundbreaking journalist and former ABC News and CNN anchor Carol Lin, whose voice helped guide millions through some of the most defining moments of the 21st century — including her historic live coverage during the September 11 attacks. In her memoir, When News Breaks: A Memoir of Love and War, she shares a deeply personal and powerful account of life in journalism — navigating breaking news, global conflict, and the emotional toll of reporting from the front lines, while also balancing love, family, and identity. This is a conversation about truth, resilience, responsibility, and what it means to bear witness to history.
