This episode airs the day before what would have been Bruce Lee’s 80th birthday and so Shannon is thrilled to have as her guest, one of her father’s dear friends, students and co-stars, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Kareem is a legend in his own right. He was a student playing basketball for UCLA when he and Bruce Lee first became friends. He went on, of course, to become the NBA's all-time leading scorer. Kareem is a global icon that changed the game of professional basketball and went on to become a New York Times best-selling author, Emmy nominated filmmaker, 5x award-winning columnist for The Hollywood Reporter, and also writes regularly for The Los Angeles Times and The Guardian newspapers. He was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, our nations highest civilian honor by President Obama in 2016. Kareem also serves as the chairman of his Skyhook Foundation bringing outdoor environmental learning opportunities to underserved communities. See links below to connect Kareem and his many phenomenal accomplishments. It was such a pleasure for Shannon to speak about philosophy and life with an old family friend, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
