NEW PODCAST: The Horse Race team launches “Mass Reboot”

A series on restarting Massachusetts after COVID-19 and what we’ve lost along the way

Listen to the trailer

What happens when you reboot a whole state? Yesterday, after one year, three months, and five days, the COVID-19 state of emergency ended in Massachusetts. With millions vaccinated across the state and with summer on its way, the gears are beginning to turn again. Things that stopped are starting. Things that were closed are re-opening. That leaves a big question.

What does a post-pandemic Massachusetts look like?

The team behind The Horse Race, Massachusetts’ favorite political podcast, is back with a new summer podcast. Mass Reboot is a 10-episode series on restarting Massachusetts after COVID-19 and what we’ve lost along the way. Steve Koczela, Jennifer Smith, and longtime Horse Race producer Libby Gormley will share hosting duties, telling the stories of Massachusetts residents as we emerge from the pandemic. Each week, they will explore a new area of Massachusetts society - from housing and government to sports and food.

The first episode, “Art,” will post June 23rd. New episodes of Mass Reboot will post weekly on Wednesdays and will be available wherever you get your podcasts. Subscribers to The Horse Race and The Codcast will find the podcast in their feed.

Mass Reboot is a production of The MassINC Polling Group. It is produced in association with CommonWealth Magazine and is sponsored by Rasky Partners, Inc.
