Jonathan has spent decades in print and TV news – which makes him an expert researcher and archivist for TBT. His off-hours include something he calls “cliff jumping.” His kids call it “Dad pushing us off a ledge.”

- CBS ships prizes to anywhere in the U.S., so I had them send everything to Ryden's Store at the Pigeon River border.
