Chris O’Mealy’s Universe

On this episode, I am joined by the host of the Heat, Hope, & Hard Times Podcast, Kyle Slaymaker, aka the High Five Guy. Kyle's journey is one of trauma and troubled times, that all eventually led to him being the man he is today. It's a very inspirational story that contains tough subject matter, but is absolutely worth hearing, especially if you are someone going through a rough patch yourself. Kyle opens up about his alcoholism, sexual assault, and personal struggles, but also discusses his love for pro wrestling, his love of inspiring others, and answers his OWN podcast questions too!

To celebrate her 75th birthday, I invited my mother, Adrienne Esposito O'Mealy, to join me on my podcast! Along with my friend Eric and Chris Decker, we discussed a wide variety of topics with mom. Mom discusses growing up in the 1950s and 1960s and what the culture was like - from historic events, being rebellous as a teenager, technology, trends, and media. She also talks about her Italian heritage and life growing up in New Jersey, the New York Mets, various concerts and events she's attended, and has fun answering YOUR questions, including several about her son, me!
