Our part one podcast featuring Dr. Genevra Walters, the former superintendent of Kankakee District 111, has concluded this evening, and we are set to begin recording part two next week.
Walking away tonight after doing this podcast, I couldn’t help but notice the parallels to the Kankakee County Housing Authority, where politics, egos, control, deception, and greed overshadow the real issue: the children, who have unfortunately been sidelined in the process.
The responsibility for the children does not rest on a single individual; rather, it is a collective failure involving multiple parties as explained to 815.
Glenn and Mike explore expectations and performance gaps as causes and effects of addiction and sobriety. Understanding that even when the best is given, sometimes failure prevails, and that acceptance is the key to navigating toward true recovery.
EPISODE 59: In a world that moves a mile a minute, finding your focus can feel like chasing a moving target. In this episode, I share real-life tools and mindset shifts that have helped me reclaim my attention and power—like the simple but mighty timer cubes that keep me grounded and on task. But more than hacks, this conversation is about understanding how your brain works, giving yourself grace, and finding what actually supports you. Whether you’re juggling a million things or just trying to finish that one project, this is your invitation to slow down, focus in, and feel good doing it.

The guys discuss why it’s a good idea to keep the interior of your Chevy Cruze clean in the slim chance you may encounter a silverback gorilla, when violent flailing is the ONLY possibility of summoning a lifeguard, and how gambling on incontinence requires a thorough rinse between rounds.
Part 2 of this special live series brings you straight to the heart of the 2025 Limb Preservation Foundation Symposium, where leaders in medicine, technology, advocacy, and lived experience come together to reshape the future of limb care.
Hosted and created by Rick Bontkowski, The AMP’D UP211 Podcast continues its mission to amplify voices from the limb loss and limb difference community, this time from the main stage in Denver.
In this episode, four remarkable guests join us to share their powerful stories and groundbreaking work:
Gini Thomas – After surviving a devastating motorcycle accident, Gini made the bold decision to pursue osseointegration. Her journey is a testament to advocacy, autonomy, and second chances.
Mike Bolland – Born without a right hand, Mike is a professional bowler and the creator of We’re Not Stumped, a podcast that brings humor, awareness, and authenticity to disability storytelling.
Lera Doederlein – Once a child in a Russian orphanage, now a Paralympic athlete. Lera’s story spans continents, challenges, and triumphs as she redefines what’s possible through sport and resilience.
Dr. Aadeel Akhtar – A visionary in neuroprosthetics and the founder of PSYONIC, Dr. Akhtar is revolutionizing the way we think about prosthetic limbs—making them more intuitive, lifelike, and accessible.
This episode captures the spirit of the symposium, education, empowerment, and community. Whether you’re an amputee, clinician, caregiver, or curious listener, this conversation will leave you informed, inspired, and ready to take action.
