SAN ANTONIO – Today at 10 a.m., SA veteran summits Mount Everest, the Spurs Hype Squad get us pumped up, Dachshunds and a popular new River Walk restaurant in an encore episode.

Our Question of the Day: What gets you pumped up for the day? Let us know here, then look for your answer on this morning’s show.

The Spurs Hype Squad joins us to put some pep in your Tuesday! They’re holding new auditions, and you could be just who they’re looking for.

Speaking of motivation, retired San Antonio veteran David Phillips just climbed to the top of Mount Everest! He shares his harrowing journey with us this morning and tells us about the good cause it supports. He’s on a mission to achieve the Grand Explorer’s Crown as part of Project 327. He only has two poles and two summits to go. You can learn more here.

Jada takes us to a new restaurant on the San Antonio River Walk that’s generating a lot of buzz. She gives us a taste of Luz Roja Tex Mex.

As it heats up outside, summer safety is a concern for our pups. Diamond Dachshund Rescue of Texas shares ways to keep your dogs safe in the heat, and tells us about their Beach Vibes Fundraiser with some adoptable pups.

Still looking for the perfect gift for Dad? Garden Ridge Market Days gives us some great gift ideas from local vendors.

Plus, summer is a great time to graze. We’re talking charcuterie and grazing boards with Graze & Wine.
