Welcome to this episode of the Michelle Tofoya podcast. Throughout my career, I have met so many

unique, fun, interesting, inspiring people. And you don't always get to share their full

stories in a television broadcast. Sometimes I get 15 seconds, sometimes I get 45. But that's why I love this podcast because I can introduce you to some of these people that I've met, that maybe you haven't.

Les Norman is one of these people.

Played for the Kansas City Royals, had a great high school college and minor league career in baseball.

You won't believe his backstory.

You may have seen him on Wheel of Fortune, but you won't believe his backstory and how

someone who went through that much suffering could come out on the other end the way he has.

I want you to meet former Major League Baseball player, Les Norman.

He's got his own podcast now.

You'll hear about that later.

But stay tuned because this is a good one.

Now it's time for some sanity.

It's the Michelle Tofoya podcast.

Les Norman, welcome.

It's so great to have you.

I love introducing my new friends to the podcast, listeners, and viewers. And you are, you've done a lot in your life. What is the most important role that you play? I have a feeling I know what you're going to say, but say it anyway. Well, gosh, it's definitely going to be a husband to my bride of 27 years

and father to my 22-year-old and 18-year-old sons, Mack and Tate. So I mean, everything else I do

besides my faith, everything else I do hinges upon leading them, loving them, providing for them.

And yeah, it's, providing for them.

And yeah, and it's an honor to do that.

I love being able to do that.
