So Now What? with Waleed Aly

The Covid-19 pandemic has turned our world upside down. From how we work and how we live to the very basics of human interaction - we're having to adapt to ways of life we never thought possible.

One thing is certain, nothing will ever be the same. 

As we look to life beyond the virus, we ask: so now what?


With the help of experts in their fields, each episode Waleed Aly explores a different aspect of our lives, how it's been impacted by the coronavirus and just what we can expect on the other side.


Produced by Chris Bendall.
