Episode 003: True Stories & Life Reset of TV Meteorologist Dave Freeman

Art of the Reset

In today’s episode, I chat with rock-star TV meteorologist Dave Freeman who, after a successful forty-year television career, is choosing to retire and now “reset” his life. He shares how he’s dealt with the challenges he’s faced throughout the years, and how he is now embarking on a new adventure that will take him (and his wife, Tracy) over to the Middle East to answer a higher calling to serve people in a whole new way. I met Dave in the early 90’s when he and I both colleagues and worked at KSNW-TV in Wichita, Kansas. Before that, he worked as an on-air meteorologist in Ohio, before taking over as Chief Meteorologist at KSNW. The Wichita market, by the way, is known in news and weather circles as the “Super Bowl” of markets for severe weather. Dave was responsible for keeping people safe across seventy-seven counties and two time zones…. quite a feat! He was also on-air during the horrible May 4, 2007 Greensburg Kansas tornado that destroyed 95% of the town and killed 13 people. Take a listen and enjoy this time spent with Dave Freeman, one of the most beloved and accomplished TV meteorologists of our time.
