Just a few weeks after leaving Fox News shortly before Tucker Carlson, radio host, podcaster, and former Fox News Channel host Dan Bongino has made a major announcement about his plans for the short-term future.
That announcement is that he has written a book that will come out in October of 2023. The book, titled “The Gift of Failure: (And I’ll rethink the title if this book fails!),” is about his career and how he managed to turn painful failures into dramatic successes.
Speaking about the book, Bongino said, “I’ve failed a lot. A LOT! But I thank God for each failure because I used them as learning opportunities. And after seeing book after book about how wonderful people are, I decided to write a book about my failures.”
Barnes and Noble, in its “overview” section for the soon to be released, 224-page book, says:
“Dan Bongino’s brutally honest, deeply personal, unforgettable stories about how he transformed failures into victories will enthrall, entertain, and inspire readers.
“In The Gift of Failure, leading conservative commentator Dan Bongino identifies failures in his life and how those failures led to bigger and better things. With the same laser-focused intensity that has made him one of America’s most popular voices, Bongino uncompromisingly cuts to the heart of failure with a collection that is inspirational, motivational, entertaining, touching, and redemptive. The former Secret Service agent currently hosts one of the country’s most listened to radio programs along with a top-rated podcast and the popular Fox News television show, Unfiltered. Throughout his career, Bongino has helped trailblaze a fight for free speech and free expression, garnering many national headlines for taking on some of the biggest tech companies in the world to challenge their seemingly draconian censorship policies. Along the way, through his many David vs. Goliath battles, Bongino has learned the hard way why failure matters. In The Gift of Failure, he shares, in vivid detail, many of these experiences—from high-profile, front-page stories involving the drama behind Parler and Rumble, to never-before-shared personal tales covering his childhood, the Secret Service, the media, a recent serious health battle, and much more. Bongino’s vulnerability coupled with his trademark in-your-face, unapologetic honesty and humor help illuminate many life lessons. This is unforgettable storytelling as only Bongino can deliver. Whether you agree with him or not, there’s something here for everyone.”
Bongino also retweeted a post sharing a link to pre-order a signed, hardcover copy of the book.

Fox News, when it announced that Bongino left, said, “We thank Dan for his contributions and wish him success in his future endeavors.” He ensured his fans that he had not had to leave because of a WWE-style brawl with Fox News management, but rather parted ways with the network simply because he could not come to terms with it on his Saturday cable show.
He was, however, shocked when Fox News announced that it and Tucker would also be parting ways. That news broke during his podcast and, after announcing it, Bongino attempted to compose himself and return to his show. Somewhat failing, he then said, “I’m reading it right here, it just broke,” he continued. “I’m stunned, I’m stunned, I don’t even know what to say right now like I don’t even know how I’m going to get back to that segment.”
