About this episode
On episode 26 of the Zero Rights Reserved podcast, host Toady Hawk from The Noun Square sits down for part one of a two part Home & Away podcast with Nick Hollins from UFO.
In this one, Toady puts Nick in the hotseat to find out all about his career and crypto journey. We talk about everything from onchain media and web 3 distribution to open source and DAOs, and we hear firsthand what’s next for UFO.
