Actor and activist Sean Penn hosts Dr. Anthony Fauci, former Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases at the National Institutes of Health, to discuss Fauci’s new memoir, On Call: A Doctor’s Journey in Public Service. Fauci recounts his childhood and path into medicine in the book as well as his work behind the scenes during the AIDS crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic. Both have had their fair share of critics and controversy, so it is sure to be a lively conversation.
