Summary

Milwaukee Bucks forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo is more than just a basketball player. Whether it’s his career on the court, his podcast Thanalysis, or some other entrepreneurial venture, he believes that success is about creating an ecosystem rather than just focusing on one thing. In this week’s episode, he opens up about his late father’s quiet strength, as well as the ways that his Greek and Nigerian roots influence him as an immigrant to the United States. He and Charlie cover everything from American food to parkour, personal growth, and what comes after basketball. And stick around to the end of the episode to watch Thanasis try his very first brat!
