ROGUE TRIP - BOB WOODRUFF AND MACK WOODRUFF INTERVIEW

Imagine being able to take the trip of a lifetime with your father? 

 “Rogue Trip” a new National Geographic series that will be streaming on Disney+ is led by ABC News Correspondent Bob Woodruff and his 28-year-old son Mack Woodruff.

Bob who has been covering Wars for ABC news for decades almost lost his life 14 years ago when his armored vehicle was hit by a roadside bomb while covering the war in Iraq. After spending 36 days in a medically induced coma  Bob’s life was saved but forever changed his life.  Having the opportunity to do this series with his son was not only a gift but something he does not take for granted. 

The series takes viewers on a father-son adventure to some of the world’s most unexpected places – roguish nations and territories mostly known for conflict, but each possessing a unique power to surprise, amaze and inspire. They visit Colombia, Papua New Guinea, Ethiopia, Pakistan, Lebanon and Ukraine. Along the journey, Bob and Mack share raw, big-hearted moments when “going rogue” together changes their perspectives – not just on their own relationship, but on other people and places. 

I spoke with Bob and Mack about the show and how working on this series was life changing for them both.

Rogue Trip starts streaming on Disney+ on Friday July 24th
