In Episode 15 of Uncorked: Wine, Business, and Life, we sit down with South Jersey legend Adam Taliaferro — whose inspiring comeback from a career-ending spinal injury as a Penn State freshman became one of the most powerful stories in college football history.

After being paralyzed during a game at Ohio State, Adam was told he’d never walk again. Less than a year later, he led the Penn State Nittany Lions out of the tunnel — walking on his own. His journey didn’t stop there.

Today, he’s a lawyer, lobbyist, former NJ Assemblyman, philanthropist, and the founder of the Adam Taliaferro Foundation, which has helped thousands of spinal injury patients rebuild their lives.

🎙️ In this emotional and powerful conversation, we cover:

His injury and 8-month road to walking again

The moment he took his first steps

Support from Coach Joe Paterno & Christopher Reeve

Starting the Adam Taliaferro Foundation

His career as a lawyer, lobbyist & public servant

Lessons on resilience, family, and staying positive in the darkest moments
