On this episode, Derek sits with Joe Dittmar. As the day of this release marks the 23rd Anniversary of the September 11th, 2001 Attacks, I have been sitting on Joe’s interview for 9 months as quite frankly, his story is so incredible, it felt only appropriate to release it on 9/11. Joe agreed to come on the show as part of the “Derek Duvall Show 9/11 Outreach Project” as he was on the 102nd Floor of the South Tower when the North Tower was struck and is one of the few living people to have seen the carnage of the North Tower up close including the wrecked fuselage of Flight 11.

Joe’s story is gripping and heart wrenching and not for the faint of heart so listener discretion is advised.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joe-dittmar-02214812/SPONSOR - Go to https://betterhelp.com/derekduvallshow for 10% off your first month of therapy with @betterhelp and get matched with a therapist who will listen and help #sponsored
