In this episode of the Cohere podcast, Bill and Lauren speak
with returning guest Jim Cashel about the progress of the "Great
Connecting" - the global rollout of broadband Internet - during the
COVID19 pandemic.
The conversation covers a wide
range of topics, including the role of the Internet during COVID
lockdowns, having our realities largely mediated via screens and
networks, the state of wireless and satellite broadband
technologies, public policy surrounding Internet access, and much
more.
Jim is the Chairman of Forum
One Communications, a former
recent Visiting Fellow at the Shorenstein Center on Media,
Politics, and Public Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School,
and author of the book, “The
Great Connecting: The Emergence of Global Broadband, and How That
Changes Everything”.
