Episode Notes

Multi-talented musician Flea (whose new solo album of jazz trumpet music, Honora, is out now), is obviously most famous for his work as the bassist for multi-time platinum, Grammy award winning band Red Hot Chili Peppers. But he’s also one of the most ubiquitous basketball fans on the planet, often found courtside as a true ride-or-die Laker fan. In a fascinating and wide-reaching conversation, he talks to host Claire de Lune about everything from Kobe Bryant to the flow state.
