Visiting the Arab World as an Arab American

Season 5 · Episode 9

mardi 27 mai 2025Duration 38:48

Summer's here, and that means one thing for Arab Americans... it's time to head back "home" to the Arab world! 

In this episode, we dive into what it’s like having two homes — the U.S. and the Arab world. We talk about what it’s like for Arab Americans visiting the Arab World - the things that make us feel deeply connected, the things we absolutely love (on demand Shawarma and Knafeh) to a few things we could do without (intrusive and judgmental comments from the aunties). Whether you're packing your bags for a summer trip or just feeling nostalgic, this episode is for everyone who knows what it’s like to live between two worlds.

This is not a war. It is a genocide.

Season 4 · Episode 3

mardi 13 février 2024Duration 40:30

In this week’s episode, Hanan and Lina talk about the ongoing Israeli genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. This isn’t the type of content we usually produce, but it’s critical that we continue to talk about Palestine and what is happening there. The people of Gaza have asked us to keep talking about the atrocities being committed against them by the Israeli government and military. This is the least we can do.
