Listen Here: Bonus Episode: G-Man Honors: Salute to FBI Heroes
The 8th Annual FBIAA G-Man Honors: A Salute to FBI Heroes dinner held on November 18, 2021, was a sold out event. But no worries. I invite you to enjoy this audio replay of the amazing evening.
The 2021 FBIAA G-Man Honors event featured a special message from FBI Director Christopher A. Wray and keynote remarks from me, the FBIAA Distinguished Service Honoree. I received this recognition from my peers for my continued support of the FBI family by telling the real stories of the FBI and Special Agents through my podcast, books, and blog. It is the highest validation of my post-FBI career and creative work.
This year's event was held in special remembrance on the 20th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
