ABOUT THIS EPISODE
The odds weren't good that David Concannon would have made something of himself, but he wasn't listening. He didn't have a lot of champions but the ones he had made all the difference. From his grandfather to camp counselors and teachers, to writers like Tim Cahill these were those who shaped him, who helped him become David. Largely because of them, he refused to be limited by others' negative perception of his prospects.
In Part 1 he talks about how the dream of exploration was implanted in him and about meeting a special girl in Jersey who he lost track of for awhile but later married. He traces his educational trajectory and development as a lawyer and talks about working for a judge who had a hand in his becoming, as well.

Dave grew up to be a big deal but that's not what he wants you to know. He wants you to know that you should be, you can be Doing It! yourself if you will.
In Part 2, Dave talks about his expeditions and many related-affiliations, and conveys his passion for life: for exploring and for helping kid…
There's nothing like a cross country jaunt to inspire heart swells. Just back from a two-week trip back to Minnesota for a family reunion, I can't tell you how many times I was nearly overcome.
