The Hub Sneaker Podcast
Welcome to The 12Hub Sneaker Podcast – Where kicks, culture, and convos collide.
Hosted by Hugh Mulzac, Dakari Boddie & Mike Wavs, The 12Hub is more than just another sneaker podcast. It’s a space where we break down the latest drops, unbox the grails, and talk about what sneakers really mean in the bigger picture — music, identity, hustle, and legacy.
Each week, we tap in with collectors, creatives, entrepreneurs, and everyday heads who keep the culture moving. From wild stories in the resale game to navigating life, family, and business — we keep it real, insightful, and unapologetically rooted in the culture.

Episode 26 | Complex Con Sneak Panel Review, Kith X Marvel X Asics Collab & Kanye's Bizarre Apology
#12hubsneakerpodcast
The Complex Sneaker of the Year panel was... a mess. Hugh and Drew break down why the panel (and Joe La Puma's list) missed the mark, why Fat Joe was the only rational one, and debate the sudden hype of the Lil Yachty Air Force 1. Is it just a CPFM ripoff that Fat Joe saw 12 years ago?
The guys also cover the endless wait for the Travis Scott drop (and his $3,500 pillow), why the new Kith x Capcom collab is "outlet trash," and react to the bizarre Kanye West rabbi apology video.
Plus, Hugh shares an absolute nightmare story about his Tesla accident and insurance hell that you have to hear to believe.
