In 1982, an aspiring journalist knocked on the door of a fledgling news organization named National Public Radio looking for a job. NPR decided to take a chance on Peter Breslow and for the next four decades they grew up together. In Outtakes, Breslow offers an unvarnished, often hilarious, look behind the scenes of one of the world’s preeminent journalistic institutions. Readers are there as history unfolds live on the radio: Breslow orchestrating coverage during the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster and the Pulse nightclub shooting. Engaging and immersive, it is startling story after story from someone on the frontlines of journalism. Travel with him up Mt. Everest (recorder in hand), enjoy Oreos with an Afghan tribal leader, feel your knees shake atop the Empire State Building, and watch rattlesnake venom drip from his microphone. Peter Breslow’s chronicles are breathtaking and a master class in audio storytelling. For decades Peter Breslow roamed the planet as a senior producer for NPR’s All Things Considered and Weekend Edition. He has won multiple journalism honors, including two Peabody Awards. Peter grew up in River Edge, New Jersey, worships the music of Muddy Waters and rides his bike whenever he can. He has twin daughters Eden and Danielle, and lives in Washington, DC with his wife Jessica and their dog Sadie. Breslow will be in conversation with Scott Simon. Scott Simon is the host of Weekend Edition Saturday and is one of the hosts of NPR's morning news podcast Up First. He has reported from all fifty states, five continents, and ten wars, from El Salvador to Sarajevo to Afghanistan and Iraq. His books have chronicled character and characters, in war and peace, sports and art, tragedy and comedy.
