The Hustle And The Heart Of Havana

Havana, Cuba is a place you should try to get to and if you do get there, be ready to be immersed in a culture that is all about getting by. In this episode, I'll talk about some of my — let's say eccentric experiences there and the sort of things you should be, yes, prepared for, but also just as importantly, open to, from restaurants facing shortages of supplies, to very limited internet service, to getting hustled for cigars. It's all a part of this larger picture of a people who, despite what they lack, are happy and friendly and welcoming. Speaking of hustle, I'll also talk to Afro-Cuban sensation Cimafunk about recording in France and where he likes to grab a drink when he's home.
