Tahrir Podcast turns 4!
In episode 45, we celebrate this milestone by flipping the script—our host, Abdalla Nasef takes the guest seat as Gabriel Gluskin-Braun interviews him about the journey of the podcast.
Since its first episode in 2021, Tahrir Podcast - بودكاست التحرير has featured 44 conversations with academics, activists, journalists, and political analysts, covering Egypt, Palestine, Syria, Sudan, Ukraine, Yemen, the Gulf, Iran, and more. It has explored everything from geopolitics and social movements to censorship and current events.
What started as an independent project with just a microphone and a computer has grown into one of the top-ranked Middle East podcasts, reaching tens of thousands of listeners worldwide. It remains one of the few independent media sources in Egypt and the first explicitly political podcast broadcasting from the country.
In this episode, Nasef reflects on the podcast’s journey, and what’s next.
