It's a Pelham Place takeover of the Swipe Wrong feed! We're still here, and we'll be back soon with more new Swipe Wrong episodes. In the meantime...

You know his name as the producer of Swipe Wrong. Now, you can listen to his podcast, Pelham Place. He even has his episodes dropping to his YouTube channel at @jaypelham

To introduce the Swipe Wrong audience to Jay, we are dropping his latest episode in our feed. Please go subscribe to his YouTube channel and be sure to follow Pelham Place wherever you get your podcast fix.

In Part Two of this Pelham Place Armed Forces Week special, Jay continues the conversation with Marine veteran Craig Grossi @FredTheAfghan22 picking up where we left off—with the high-stakes mission to extract Fred from the battlefield and bring him home. Craig shares the unbelievable true story of smuggling Fred out of Afghanistan, the challenges of transitioning out of the military, and the emotional road trip that helped him rediscover the country he fought for. Along the way, we hear how a chance encounter in a Mississippi juke joint (Red's Lounge) changed two lives forever—and how Fred’s presence continues to open hearts and inspire healing everywhere Craig goes.

The episode closes with a timely and much-needed message about resilience, gratitude, and unity in uncertain times. If you’ve ever needed a reason to believe in hope, this is it.

Pick up Craig’s books Craig & Fred and Second Chances wherever books are sold. Find out more at www.fredtheafghan.com and you can follow Craig & Nora on Instagram (@fredtheafghan) to get all the latest in their world, including their own podcast and upcoming appearances.

Updates since this conversation - Fred passed away on November 22, 2023 and Red Paden of Red's Lounge in Clarksdale, MS passed away on December 30, 2023. They will both be missed by the many people who had the chance to interact with them.
