📢 Pornography is a silent but pervasive issue in American Muslim communities.. We’re breaking that silence with Alaa Shareef of The Family and You Institute. She brings data-driven insights on who’s watching, why consumption happens, who's at risk, and what we can do about it—because ignoring it isn’t an option.

📊 Who is consuming porn in our communities, and what does that mean for our relationships and faith?
 ⚠️ Who’s at risk? It’s not just who you think.
 🛑 How can families, parents, and partners approach this conversation with love, faith, and practical solutions?

We’re here to talk about real, shame-free solutions for prevention, intervention, and healing. If you’ve ever wondered how to protect your children, support a loved one, or unlearn toxic cultural taboos around this issue, this episode is for you. Key pearl from Alaa on this episode is "compassion not condemnation."

🎧 Tune in now and join the conversation—because the first step to solving a problem is talking about it. Then share this episode with a loved one who may be experiencing porn in some capacity that's harming their imaan, someone who may not know how to get help otherwise.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
