Bluegrass magic in Louisville, Kentucky

Here is an audio endorsement from last night’s show in Louisville, Kentucky.

The speaker is Dan Rechter, chairman of Purity Zinc Metals, a third-generation family business. He invited me to the Bluegrass State to entertain 80 company presidents at their annual Young Presidents Organization event. I had a terrific time getting to know the members of this group, and appreciate their positive response to my show! They presented me with a personalized Louisville Slugger bat that has my name engraved.
While in Louisville, I spent a marvelous afternoon at the Muhammad Ali Center. Yes, the museum houses Ali memorabilia, but it delivers so much more – it is a tribute to the principles that Muhammad Ali stood for throughout his boxing career (respect, confidence, conviction, dedication, giving, and spirituality), and for his humanitarian work later in his life. The museum is designed with cutting edge modern style, and uses creative multimedia exhibits that welcome you into Ali’s life. The interactive exhibits were great – you can even shadow box against a lifesized video of Ali’s shadow (this looks to observers like you are actually fighting the champ).
Highly recommended if you are in the Louisville area – I want to return during the Kentucky Derby, and bring my family.
