    Bidet Mate! Either You Love Bidets or Just Don't Know it Yet - So Fresh & So Clean Chat w/ Steve Weiss
    Nov 12 2024

    In this episode of Up+Adam, Adam Montiel sits down with Steve Weiss, an award-winning creator who’s left his mark on the film industry with Emmy-winning content and cutting-edge camera gear. Now, Steve has turned his focus to something entirely new and a bit more, let’s say, personal—The Traveler from Portabidets. For all the bidet lovers out there (and those who just don’t know it yet), this portable, compact bidet is designed to keep you feeling fresh no matter where life takes you.

    

    Adam, a devoted bidet user himself, dives into the story behind the PortaBidet and the demand that saw it smash its Kickstarter goal. Join them as they discuss everything from the bidet’s unique design and tech features to the growing popularity of bidets in the U.S. Get ready for a lively and open conversation about staying clean at home, or on the go, with some laughs and clever insights along the way.

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

    Veteran's Day w/ Purple Heart Recipient & WWII Vet Dick Grantham
    Nov 11 2024
    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.

    Crafting with Balls: Firestone Walker & Ernie Ball's Beer Collab Rock the IPA Scene
    Nov 8 2024

    In this episode of Up+Adam, we sit down with Matt Brynildson, the legendary Brewmaster at Firestone Walker Brewing Company. We kick things off by diving into Firestone Walker's exciting collaboration with Ernie Ball—Electric Eagle, a West Coast IPA that’s bursting with hop flavor and Central Coast attitude. Matt shares how this partnership came together, including how their mutual love of music and craft led to a quick and natural collaboration, and what makes this limited-release beer a true celebration of music, craftsmanship, and community.

    We also explore the Brewmaster’s Collective, Firestone’s direct-to-consumer beer club that offers members exclusive access to artisanal small-batch creations, quarterly collections, and VIP experiences. Matt explains what sets the 2025 season apart, from the incredible barrel-aged offerings to the unique benefits that make the Brewmaster’s Collective a must-join for passionate craft beer fans.
