Temporary Insanity, Operation Detour, Dobie's Dilemma, Lottery President and Another Way have been stitched together as an episodic saga starring Dobie Pokorny.
Raised in Louisville, Dobie spends his 20s in L.A. where everything is temporary: his jobs, his relationships, and his sanity.
Next comes Kuala Lumpur, where he is tangled up with Riva, a beautiful young operative‑in‑training.
Back in the States, he marries a woman who looks like Riva but is nothing like her. When he and a co-worker expose corruption inside their company, they’re forced into Witness Protection.
Returning to Louisville, Dobie wins the lottery — literally — and launches a presidential campaign. It made sense at the time.
With assassination attempts in his rearview, he writes a manifesto and takes his show on the road. The universe gives him Semmy — a little blue alien who may or may not be a figment of his imagination — and Kaylie — who may or may not be the love of his life.
Here is a cringe-worthy podcast all about it, created by Copilot AI.
