Nick Wright Gets Real About FS1

First Things First just landed its first Emmy nomination, and Nick Wright is not pretending to be cool about it. How did a show that started as a morning lead-in to Skip Bayless become one of the most talked-about daily sports programs on television, and what role did the chemistry between Nick, Brew, and Wilds actually play in that rise?

Nick has been open about being a tough guy to work with on air over long stretches. So what does it really take to make that kind of chemistry work, and what actually went down between him and Brandon Marshall behind the scenes?

Nick Wright has called Colin Cowherd his professional idol for years. What does that relationship actually look like up close, and after nearly a decade at FS1, where does he want to take his career next?
