Latest Episodes

Who would lead Tunisia into the next chapter of its history — the revolutionaries who had pushed Ben Ali out of power, or the returning Islamists who had spent years exiled in Europe?

Ben Ali was gone, but the trouble with popular uprisings is there's not a lot of foresight. So how do you bootstrap a democracy when you've never really had one?

The final days of the revolution crashed into Tunis and onto Avenue Habib Bourguiba, but as protesters called for Ben Ali to get out, a dark secret was hiding just below their feet.

  • A Historical Treasure

    Listened all the way through in March 2022, and it’s still totally relevant. An illuminating account that captures the exhilaration of the revolution. The numerous interviews with a range historically important Tunisians were the highlight. Recommend to anyone hoping to understand the modern politics of the Middle East or the sociology of revolution.
