Host Chris Albert is joined by three award-winning National Geographic directors to discuss their latest documentaries. National Geographic director Ron Howard’s film, We Feed People follows chef Jose Andres and his team of volunteers at World Central Kitchen. Joining Ron are John Hoffman and Janet Tobias, co-directors of the National Geographic film, Fauci, which follows Dr. Anthony Fauci in his COVID bubble in 2020, juxtaposed against his efforts to find a vaccine for AIDS in the 1980’s. The directors discuss the trust required, not only with Andres and Fauci, but with their families as well, in order to reveal their full humanity. The directors also describe the filmmaking process required to combine hundreds of hours of archival footage with new material to weave a powerful, emotional story.
