On January 26th, 2020, NBA legend Kobe Bryant was killed in a helicopter crash along with his 13-year-old daughter Gianna, John, Keri, and Alyssa Altobelli, Christina Mauser, Sarah and Payton Chester, and pilot Ara Zobayan. As Southern California natives and huge Laker fans, Episode 1 guest Chris Graves and I talk about how we first heard the news, wrestle with why the tragedy has affected us so profoundly, and share our favorite (and most disappointing) Kobe moments.

Soulful, artistic, and talented singer-songwriter Adam Gabriel (Facebook | Instagram) shares his journey through life and music in this raw, deep, and intimate portrait of man on a lifelong quest to hone his craft.
