Our next pod­cast episode is now live! This week, we were delight­ed to be joined by Sec­re­tary John Nash, Okla­homa State Sec­re­tary for Mil­i­tary and Vet­er­an Affairs.

In this episode, Sec. Nash talks to us about this career to-date and his cur­rent role with­in the US state of Okla­homa. It has a lega­cy of aero­space inno­va­tion and suc­cess dat­ing back more than a cen­tu­ry, so Sec. Nash goes into more detail about this and talks about why aero­space and defence are Okla­homa’s sec­ond largest indus­tries.
