Kenny Kemp Goes on the Air and Online
Kenny Kemp, winner of the National
Self-Published Book Award for his memoir Dad Was A Carpenter, isn't
stopping there. "It's about total world domination," he says,
laughing. "No, it's actually about dumb ideas I have that sometimes
work out."
Kemp, an award-winning author and filmmaker, as well as a contractor
and an attorney, nods when asked if maybe this time it really is a
dumb idea, sharing his views with a national audience.
"Absolutely," he says. "All good ideas sound dumb at first because
such ideas usually answer questions that are just forming. If
everyone understood the problem, then solutions would abound, and the
field would be crowded."
But isn't the talk radio dial already crowded? Kemp maintains that
while there are many voices, few are constructive. "It's very easy to
grouse about what's wrong. It's much harder to find solutions, which
is what my show is about -- making life better."
"The show deals with the four elements which must be in balance for
us to be happy," says Kemp, adjusting his headphones in the studio,
preparing to go on the air. "The body (health and medicine), the
heart (culture and relationships), the mind (politics and science)
and the soul (the search for the Infinite)."
Kenny interviews experts and ordinary people, takes callers, and of
course, gives his opinions. "It's not as easy as it sounds," he says
as the bumper music swells. "By demanding solutions from my guests
and callers, I've set a standard that I also have to meet. I'm tired
of turning on the radio and hearing nothing but complaining; that's
why I'm doing this kind of show -- I believe there are answers out
there, and that's why I'm in here."
The Kenny Kemp Show airs live Wednesdays at 12 noon Mountain Time.
