Lee Kemp: An all time wrestling great on anyones list

Comedian Tim Gaither-The Positive Pessimist

starting Sept 15 all podcasts will be exclusively on Rokfin.com/timgaither. Lee Kemp is a 3x NCAA champion and 4x finalist. He lost on referees decision as a true freshmen. Perhaps even more amazing is that three years prior he was 11-8 as a HS sophomore. He closed out his NCAA career with 101 straight wins and he beat the legend Dan Gable as an 18 yr old. He went on to win 3 World titles, winning his first at 21, which made him the youngest World champ in U.S history, a distinction he held for 38 years. He was a member of the 1980 Olympic team that boycotted when he was heavily favored to win Gold. We talk about that travesty and much more. It was an honor to talk to him, he's a wealth of knowledge about wrestling and life.
