Flint Mitchell is a unique guest who is busy stacking perspective. He's an engineer, scientist, surfer, podcaster… and now author. What's really cool about this guy is that he's humble about the way opportunities arrive in his world. Listeners will find that this guy's world started in a place that most of us are familiar with, but don't really understand: the San Fransisco Peninsula, AKA Silicon Valley.
He shares a bit about the very real perspective that growing up in the Valley can create. Just like the factories of Detroit, it's not all roses. Mike and McD are somehow surprised by this, leading to insights and a marvelous self investigation from Mitchel. It's easy to see that this guy is more interested in improving the world than anything else - even if he does like the Giants more than the Oakland A's.
Recently, Flint published his first book, Seeking Authenticity. Much of this episode talks about his journey and excitement to release his thoughts and expand his world. The guys go all over the globe of subjects with this interview and we think our listeners will dig it.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
