  • Essential reportage

    Highly recommend this reporting of west Asian and North African affairs, which provides the updates, perspectives, and analysis that you simply do not find in what’s referred to as “legacy/mainstream” western journalism and news media.

  • In-depth, nuanced reporting

    Have enjoyed this podcast for a while but coming to write a review after I just finished the first episode of Sanaa’s Odyssey. Fantastic, much-needed journalism that humanises Palestinians and tells their story during this conflict. Looking forward to the rest of the series!
