Nico Alba

Emmy-nominated PBS television host and award-winning media personality Kristi K. explores what happens when high-profile athletes, musicians, actors and influencers turn their fame and passion into highly successful business ventures, and in some cases, empires. “SideHustlin’ with Kristi K.” premieres Friday, October 9, on YouTube and all major podcast platforms, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify, with NBA champion Iman Shumpert as the first guest. New episodes release every other Friday at 9am PT/12pm ET. “SideHustlin’ with Kristi K.” can be found @SideHustlinTV on all major social media platforms. The website is SideHustlinTV.com. “SideHustlin’ with Kristi K.” is produced by Sixth Man Productions in partnership with Invested Inc. and Kristi K. Media.

“SideHustlin’” takes viewers deeper than the typical celebrity interview to uncover the mindset, strategy, resilience, and calculated risks behind the next act of some of today’s most recognizable personalities. Each episode explores the story behind the success: Why did they make the leap? What did they risk? What did they learn and from whom? And what can aspiring entrepreneurs take from their playbook?

“The most fascinating thing about successful people is not only what they’ve done, but what they’re building next. Success doesn’t end with fame — for many people, that’s where their most interesting chapter begins,” said host Kristi K. “I’ve spent more than 20 years interviewing guests about business, life, and success. On ‘SideHustlin” I’m thrilled to uncover what happens next, when driven, famous people lean in to their talents, platforms, and passions, and push opportunity to the limit in the next chapters of their lives.”

The inaugural season will feature guests including NBA Champions Iman Shumpert and Danny Green, one of the original fitness pioneers and P90X creator Tony Horton, and Disney star Ethan Wacker, who is now on a journey into the world of real estate private equity.

“We’re building more than another celebrity interview show. ‘SideHustlin” is a platform where accomplished people reveal how they’re reinventing themselves and what it really took,” said Cristian Henry, founder and executive producer of Sixth Man Productions. “And our host Kristi K. has a rare ability to get guests to open up about the pivotal moments most people never hear about, and that’s what gives viewers lessons they can actually use through smart, relatable interviews.”
