The Nash Attack
Welcome to The Nash Attack—my take on media and what makes us watch. I’m Jonathan Nash, a lifelong movie and TV fan who’s spent my career at the intersection of Hollywood and technology. Each episode starts with a question about media I can’t stop thinking about. I bring together firsthand experience, industry history and my own perspective to make sense of how we got here, where we’re going and why it matters. OK. Let's attack something.
