EPISODE 168: KIMBERLY PLAKE
/Kimberly Plake has been a part of the ski industry for the past 40 years and she’s never done an in depth interview. Yes, her husband Glen Plake gets all the notoriety but pretty much wherever Glen goes, Kimberly is by his side but she is not just arm candy. Yes, she is good looking, a Texas Beauty Queen and former model, but she was a skier before she met Glen and now they ski together, forever. The podcast is a cool look into Kimberly’s life and some things I’ve talked about with Glen…but from a different lens. Brad Holmes asks the “Inappropriate Questions” and it’s another good one.
