Nazeem Hussain Saved A Troll's Life

Nazeem Hussain was preparing for a month-long run at the Melbourne International Comedy festival, followed by a national tour, when COVID-19 upended his plans. Knowing all Australian comedians were in a similar situation, Hussain launched a podcast: The Survivor’s Guide to Coronavirus.

Hussain was buoyed by the "family spirit amongst comedians" who supported each other, emotionally and financially, while live venues shuttered across Australia.


Nazeem talks about life in Melbourne's lockdown, about appearing in the Victorian Government's public health campaign and the interesting feedback he received, and how Shane Jacobson and Susan Carlin taught him how to react to trolls online.
