TPM Episode 102: Mike Powell, Podcaster

Mike Powell is me.  Strange for me to have myself as a guest on the podcast…..But you’ve been asking and I’m going to deliver.  High Fives Foundation Founder and good friend, Roy Tuscany takes my role as host as we walk you through my life from a 30,000-foot view.  Roy did his homework and some good stories come out and more of my story will come out in future episodes.
