“There Needs To Be More Out There Than This” - Why Denan Kemp is Grateful To Live In 2024
Manage episode 416077269 series 3425176
Denan Kemp, is a former NRL Player (Brisbane Broncos), the Host of Australia's No.1 Sports Podcast 'Bloke In A Bar' and the Founder of Bloke Beer.
Denan was an extremely talented athlete who had contact offers from the NRL, AFL & the A-League before choosing to sign with the Brisbane Broncos, whom he played 32 games for before moving across the ditch to the New Zealand Warriors (11 games). Regardless of his natural talent, Denan's playing career ended in a rather disappointing fashion at the age of just 27.
With no money in the bank and no qualifications following a life of a professional athlete, Denan had no choice but to start training as an apprentice electrician on above ground mines as a way to provide for himself and his future family. It was during this time working on the mines in freezing temperatures that he realised "there had to be more to life than this". After listening to the Joe Rogan experience for hours on end whilst completing monotonous he was inspired to start his own podcast but in a niche that he felt that he had an advantage on against all of his competition, interviewing NRL players about their journeys and careers.
Denan's story is a testament to the power of passion, perseverance, and the ability to turn a vision into reality. Join us as we take a closer look at how Denan Kemp has not only created a beloved beer brand but has also established a media platform that celebrates the sport he loves, making Bloke in a Bar a symbol of camaraderie, sportsmanship, and the Aussie spirit of having a good time with mates.
