Rick Talks to Usain Bolt on 'Tech of Sports'

Usain Bolt joins Rick on “Tech of Sports” discussing his passion for music and favorite products at the Gibson tent at CES 2018.

He was insightful, representing Philips Bass +  new Headphones at the show. In addition to his countless accolades on the track, the last six or so years has introduced the world to not just Usain Bolt the Olympic medalist, but also a regular guy who’s passionate about music and likes to DJ around his races.

An eight-time Olympic gold medalist, Bolt won the 100 m, 200 m and 4 × 100 m relay at three consecutive Olympic Games, although he subsequently forfeited one of the gold medals (as well as the world record set therein) nine years after the fact due to a teammate’s disqualification for doping offences. He gained worldwide popularity for his double sprint victory at the 2008 Beijing Olympics in world record times. Bolt is the only sprinter to win Olympic 100 m and 200 m titles at three consecutive Olympics (2008, 2012 and 2016); this is a feat referred to as the “triple double” that will be very difficult for anyone to duplicate.

He now turns his attention to music and talks with Rick!

Ryan Lochte Should Stop Doing Interviews

As evidenced by this interview with FOX 29 reporters Sheinelle Jones and Mike Jerrick. 

I don't blame them for losing after the interview ends, even though their questions were kind of lame.

Conversation Corner No. 82 - Greg Schwem – The Road to Success Goes Through the Salad Bar

Comedian, Greg Schwem returns to the "Conversation Corner" this week and he has a new book to talk about.

Greg Schwem – The Road to Success Goes Through the Salad Bar

It's a great title and even a better book.

Finally a chance for corporate America to laugh at itself, through observations gleaned from a stand-up comedian who has spent nearly 20 years performing for some of the nation’s largest and most profitable companies.  Topics such as frequent flier mileage programs, Skype-powered job interviews, and multimillion dollar “team building” meetings are all ripe targets for Greg Schwem’s razor sharp wit.

See what Greg has to say about his book and a lot more this week on "Conversation Corner"
