Podcast
In late 2019, Nathan was contacted by Something For Nothing: A RUSH Fancast interested in podcasting an interview discussing the course that he created and twice ran at Tiffin University entitled, “Rush: Progressive Rock and Modern Society.” The interview took place in late December and went live on January 20th, 2020, just over a week following the passing of Rush drummer and lyricist Neil Peart. He subsequently offered contributions in later episodes as well.
