While touring the world for his one-hour special “Mesh Abyad” (non-white), Jerusalemite comedian Alaa Abu Diab visited us for a #sardeafterdinner! From crafting hilarious jokes that literally every Arab can relate to, to deciphering the urge to speak in Egyptian with Egyptians, Alaa shares his candid yet hysterical reflections with us. Join us as we discuss: 

- The Cairo Experience everyone is bound to have 

- 1st World Problems vs 3rd World Problems

- The Civilized vs Uncivilized Refugees

- Freedom of expression, auto-censorship and comedy “for everybody” 

خلال جولته العالمية لعرضه الجديد "مش أبيض"، زارنا الكوميدي المقدسي علاء أبو دياب ل#سردة مميزة! من كتابة كوميديا مألوفة لكل عربي (حرفيًا في أي مكان على الكوكب)، أو محاولة فهم الرغبة في استخدام اللهجة المصرية مع المصريين، إلى إعادة النظر العشوائية في جائحة كورونا، ينضم إلينا علاء أبو دياب في أحاديث شفافة ومضحكة. في هذه الحلقة، نناقش: 

-جمال لا لا لاند لبنان الغريب 

-التصنيف العظيم: المتحضرون مقابل غير المتحضرين  

-حرية التعبير والرقابة الذاتية وكوميديا "للجميع"


Sarde (noun), [Sa-r-de]: A colloquial term used in the Middle East to describe the act of letting go & kicking off a stream of consciousness and a rambling narrative.

The Sarde After Dinner Podcast is a free space based out of the heart of Beirut, Lebanon, where Médéa Azouri & Mouin Jaber discuss a wide range of topics (usually) held behind closed doors in an open and simple way with guests from all walks of life.


سردة (إسم) سَرْدَةْ : مصطلح بالعامية يستخدم في منطقة الشرق الأوسط للدلالة على الاسترخاء وإطلاق سردية.

يشكّل بودكاست سردة بعد العشاء مساحة حرّة من قلب بيروت، لبنان، حيث تناقش ميديا عازوري ومعين جابر عدّة مواضيع (لطالما) تمّت مناقشتها خلف أبواب مغلقة وذلك بطريقة بسيطة ومباشرة مع ضيوف من شتّى المجالات.

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.
