Hasan ... From a Distance

Hasan Minhaj ’07 was gearing up for another season of his hit Netflix show “Patriot Act” when the stay-at-home orders came through. Production was halted and the premiere date has now been postponed. Now Minhaj is producing “Hasan … From a Distance” from his home, with wife Beena Patel ’07, MPH ’08, on camera duty. The couple welcomed a son in March, and the baby, along with his 2-year-old daughter also make appearances at their home outside New York City.

The episodes are available every Thursday on YouTube, where “Patriot Act” just reached 1 million subscribers.
