Today is Purple Day, which raises awareness for epilepsy. King Wally Lewis has had his own experience with epilepsy. Mr Lewis, told Gary Hardgrave on 4BC Drive, "It wasn't something that I felt proud of, but it was something that I was pretty scared that I was unable to keep control in the way that that it had been going." "I'd had it for quite some time, but there was the denial there rather than just owning up," Mr Lewis continued.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Paul Filice is the president of Miner's Ace Hardware, a collection of nine “hardware stores” across the Central Coast. I put “hardware stores” in quotes because Miner's is so much more than a hardware store, though that's certainly how it began. In addition to all the usual stuff — hardware, tools, paint, etc — Miner's has a wonderful housewares section featuring Traeger grills, Yeti coolers, Ball canning systems and more that I could spend all day exploring. It also has one of the best nursery departments in the business, which is our top choice for everything from seeds and veggie starts to the avocado tree, satsuma tree, and espalier apple tree in our front yard. It's a family business: I grew up going to school with Amy Miner, Paul's wife, so I've been able to watch it grow over the years. Listen to Paul tell stories about legendary employee Wally Lewis who retired at the age of 95, the man who drove a Harley directly into the Los Osos Miner's and continued to shop on it, and about how the community knew COVID was over when the popcorn came back.
