Nick Flanagan, Weakly
Nick Flanagan
Hosted by the mysteriously charming Nick Flanagan, NFW is a peek into the the diverse community of people Nick orbits. It's also about his experiences singing in bands, doing comedy and living life while dealing with mental health, depression and ADHD after a draining stints as a touring performer and(harshest of all) a brief denizen of Los Angeles. Nick has met all kinds of people and seen things that cannot be unseen - mostly on Youtube. Bad news: he wants to tell you about them. Conversational solo episodes and interviews with social workers, subcultural experts, musicians and comedians means NFW covers a range of topics with charm, aplomb and a hint of desperation.

The Potentially On Spectrum Episode
This episode has a bit of a DIY vibe due to it being livestreamed and Nick's computer not being very editing-friendly, but it's highly listenable and a rollicking time that crosses through the newest Avengers movie, animals' front legs being more like arms, being potentially on the spectrum and many other fun fun fun fun FUN topics.
