Faulkner’s fourth in-depth town hall special this year. Faulkner
recently presented America Copes Together and America Learns
Together, which focused on mental health effects of the coronavirus

Hemmer, presented a town hall with President Donald Trump and
members of the coronavirus task force during the height of the
pandemic in March.
