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.

Summertime Sadness Of The Spotless Mind
The initial release of this had BGM up too loud for a large part of the episode so here it is in a much more audible manner.
In this episode Nick gets back in the solo saddle, vents about his elastic moods and nagging thoughts, praises his cat's powering through a battle wound and soon after that, the episode ends.

Happy birthday, NFW!
It's one year of NFW! Pretty much that is. The actual official anniversary was last week but Nick still had to do his taxes (late) so there wasn't much podcast recording going on. This will be one of several podcasts discussing the one year transition!
In this episode, Nick reflects on the past year, ponders his progress and thanks several people. And thank YOU for listening. Without listener support and interest, encouragement and help, the podcast wouldn't exist.
