The Human Challenge
The Human Challenge is an award-winning podcast that shares gripping, untold stories of underrepresented voices in society overcoming and even escaping systemic barriers. Each episode showcases a new deeply intimate story, using documentary-like storytelling. Stories touch on incarcerated people, refugees, immigration, Indigenous voices, women’s issues, climate justice, gender diversity, and more. With an aim to increase media representation, The Human Challenge is hosted and produced by award-winning artist, Vanessa Ferlaino, who has Hispanic and Italian-immigrant roots. Over 70% of our guests are diverse. Past guests have included returning citizens, displaced people, astronauts, GRAMMY and JUNO nominees, and more. This is a space for underrepresented stories. This is a space for the stories that are not always told. This is a space to remember our common humanity. This is The Human Challenge, challenging what it means to be human, one story at a time.
