The Mask Podcast

The Mask Podcast shares first hand stories from people risking their lives on the frontlines to those working hard behind the scenes, all fighting with the same goal: To save lives and end the Covid-19 pandemic. We speak with first responders, medical professionals, scientists, and many more to learn what it’s really like to face this invisible enemy. Most interviews are anonymous, allowing them to fully share their whole story without any professional consequences. By sharing these personal and uncensored stories, we hope to inspire our listeners to effect positive change during this horrible epidemic, now and in the future. This podcast, created by Academy Award winning filmmakers Damon Russell and Andrew Napier, also serves as a living diary of this unprecedented time.
