TPM Episode 493: Glen Plake Grand Finale
About this episode
Mike Powell interviews legendary skier Glen Plake about skiing, Olympic sports, and life experiences.
Glen Plake is the most legendary, the most known skier of our time—maybe of all time—and I've interviewed him more than anyone. But this podcast series couldn't end without a final Plake episode, and this one was timed perfectly, the day after Freeride was named an Olympic sport. You can bet Glen has a strong opinion about that, and we also talk about FIS, SIA, skiing, life, Kimberley, and so much more. It's another fun episode with a living legend and I get some new stories out of Glen.
