ART & FEAR WITH FLYNN NOVAK
Another installment with CKTH founding contributor: the unflappable, Flynn Novak. Like CKTH — aka Can’t Knock the Hustle itself — this pod focuses on being, unflappable: Exuding calmness during the storm … Keep it moving. Keep it rolling. Smiling through the moment. Though recorded over a year ago, it’s fitting that this airs in the same week as Hunter S. Thompson’s birthday — and just a few days after Giannis Antetokounmpo captured his first NBA title. Aka cheers to the creative process and continual Kaizen.
