About this episode

on this episode, we change our format a bit; we go from one-topic dominated episodes to a more multi-topic, current events style show. we talk about why we call ourselves 'arab' and the current discussion around the word itself. we also speak our dream futures into existence (fingers crossed) and talk about the state of utter sadness mna would be in if tiktok were to be banned for real.
