In this powerful episode of The AMP’D UP211 Podcast, host Rick Bontkowski sits down with Parker Byrd, a standout athlete, college baseball player, and the first NCAA Division I player to compete with a prosthetic leg. After a life-altering boating accident took his leg, Parker defied every odd and returned to the field with more grit and heart than ever before. His story isn’t just about sports, it’s about identity, resilience, and the unshakable belief that your purpose doesn’t disappear when your circumstances change.
Rick, an amputee himself and the voice behind AMP’D UP211, brings empathy and realness to the conversation, asking the questions only someone who’s lived through limb loss can ask. This podcast was built to elevate the voices of amputees, athletes, and those who have turned adversity into power, and Parker Byrd is all of that and more.
If you're looking for motivation, perspective, or just a damn good story, this is the episode that will light a fire in you.
