This week on Thinkin’ and Drinkin’ Bart talks with Strongman Iron Tamer, Dave Whitley. Dave explains this transition from being picked on in school to his interest in superheroes with superhuman abilities, to eventually becoming a professional Strongman. He talks about his introduction to rock sounds via his Dad’s band and friends on the school bus. Which eventually led to him playing the guitar in a band. The feats that Dave performs for his motivational seminars illustrate the mindset needed to accomplish the seemingly impossible.

In this episode, you’ll hear

• Dave was attracted to the Hulk, Spiderman, Batman, or anyone with superhuman strength because he got picked on as a kid, which is where he began the process of becoming  a strongman.
• Dave’s first concert was Ted Nugent, which tied in some of the aggression he felt as a kid with heavy music.  He’s always been a fan of Ted Nugent, Van Halen, and Pantera. He also played in bands.
