The AMP (Al Mega Podcast) – Charles Richard Smith

The A.M.P (Al Mega Podcast)

Charles Smith is an inspiring survivor, warrior, author, and motivational coach. On the Al Mega podcast, he talks about his journey to success and the challenges he faced along the way. He reveals his secrets to perseverance and determination, and provides valuable insights into what it takes to reach one’s goals. Charles is originally from New York and he wore a Batman suit, jacket, and tie for the first time at Toy fair in New York, which caused people to stop him and take pictures. He talks about his journey and the lessons he has learned, including how to persevere and stay determined. In doing so, he hopes to inspire others to find the best of themselves.

Charles is from Worcester, Massachusetts, but some people call it Warchester. His father was an entrepreneur, owning multiple nursing homes and land in the area until one day it all disappeared. Charles is unsure what happened, but knows his father had to sell the house and other possessions, and his grandfather had to build a duplex for the family to live in. Charles wishes he could figure out the story behind it all, and his friend reassures him that he will because he’s Batman. His mother passed away from an overdose, leaving Charles and his father living in the duplex.

In this conversation, the speaker recounts their childhood in which they moved around Texas and Arizona with their father, who was a chef on a Navajo reservation and ran a gas station and owned a food truck. Their father was thirty years older than their mother, prompting the speaker to jokingly refer to him as a “cradle robber”. The speaker’s father eventually passed away suddenly when the speaker was eleven, leaving the speaker feeling shocked and uncertain. Despite the hardships, the speaker’s father maintained an entrepreneurial spirit, inspiring the speaker to do the same.

The speaker is recounting the story of how, at age 11, he came home from school one day and noticed that something was wrong with his father. He asked to stay home from school, and his father refused. The speaker then stuck his finger down his throat to induce vomiting and stayed home. His father passed out twice in the same hour, so the speaker ran to his neighbor’s house and asked for help to get his father to the hospital. His father passed away with the speaker holding his hand. The speaker then spoke about how he acted out in his youth and got into drugs until his aunt told him to get a job or not come back. He then joined the military, as his grandfather, mother, and uncles were all veterans of the Vietnam War.
