Now What with Ryan Duffy is a digital docuseries presented by former Vice journalist Ryan Duffy, which explores worldwide issues alongside inventive approaches to solving them. The series debuted on 15 October 2015, featuring a 10-episode season available on The Huffington Post.
This program was introduced as part of The Huffington Post's 2015 initiative to broaden its video offerings under the AOL New Front, launching 12 additional series. The site's founder, Arianna Huffington, emphasized the show's emphasis on solution-oriented journalism, referencing incidents such as the Baltimore unrest after Freddie Gray’s death to illustrate moments when conventional media failed by encouraging "copycat crimes instead of copycat solutions." According to Duffy, the format is divided into two segments: initially investigating a global issue, followed by highlighting solutions through compelling narratives about individuals actively tackling these challenges.
