  • Veteran's Day w/ Purple Heart Recipient & WWII Vet Dick Grantham

    Veteran's Day w/ Purple Heart Recipient & WWII Vet Dick Grantham
    2024/11/11
    In this special Veterans Day episode of Up+Adam, we honor the life and legacy of World War II veteran Richard “Dick” Grantham. A Quartermaster who served in some of the Pacific’s fiercest battles, Dick carried the weight of a nation’s courage through war and peace. He was awarded the Purple Heart for his heroic efforts aboard the USS Dupage, where he survived a devastating attack and later served in pivotal battles at Leyte Gulf, Okinawa, and beyond.Adam first met Dick in 2021 when he shared his story with me at a Veterans' dinner Adam hosted, and his quiet strength left a lasting impression. Almost a year later, his family invited Adam into his home to capture his story one last time—what no one knew though, it would be just hours before he passed away. His voice was frail, his breaths labored, yet his spirit was unbroken. In this episode, we listen to Dick’s final words, honoring a man who gave everything for his country and shared his last moments to remind us of the power of sacrifice.As we honor Dick’s memory, let us also remember the countless men and women who’ve served and continue to serve, standing as quiet heroes who protect our freedoms every day. To each of you, thank you.********Here’s a roundup of some notable gatherings happening across the Central Coast:AtascaderoThe Atascadero Veterans Memorial Foundation will hold its 17th annual Veterans Day ceremony at the Faces of Freedom Veterans Memorial.

  • Cast Your Vote, Keep Your Cool, & Love Your Neighbor - Presidential Chats w/ TV's Bill O'reilly

    Cast Your Vote, Keep Your Cool, & Love Your Neighbor - Presidential Chats w/ TV's Bill O'reilly
    2024/11/05

    In this Presidential Election day episode of Up+Adam, Adam Montiel has an engaging and candid conversation with TV’s Bill O'Reilly about his latest book, Confronting the Presidents. O'Reilly brings his signature no-spin analysis to the legacies of America’s leaders, diving into what makes some presidents rise to greatness while others fall into failure. O'Reilly offers sharp insights on the personal flaws, achievements, and pivotal moments that have defined U.S. history.

    The conversation explores Lincoln’s impatience with his generals, Roosevelt’s energetic progressivism, and FDR’s ability to lead through crisis. O'Reilly also shares his take on which presidents rank among the best - and worst—and why some leaders can never recover from poor decisions, while others are redeemed by history.

    If you're curious about what separates the great presidents from the worst—and what lessons modern leaders can learn from history—this episode is not to be missed.
