In this #Sardeafterdinner, we reconnect with our friend, stand-up comedian, entrepreneur, and NEW late-night talk show host John Achkar. The three of us discuss the fear of failure, the rush to get back up again, create in the face of adversity and thrive outside our comfort zone. Here’s what we talked about:
-From stand-up comedy to TV: is freedom of expression at stake?
-Nightmarish reviews from new audiences
-Pop Culture War vs Actual War
-Are Lebanese people resilient or just in denial?
-Stories about failure, success & grit from Médéa, Mouin and John
في هذه الحلقة من #سردة، نعاود الالتقاء بصديقنا والكوميدي الستاند أب ورائد الأعمال ومقدم برنامج طار الوقت الجديد جون أشقر. نناقش معاً الخوف من الفشل والهمة للنهوض من جديد والإبداع رغم كل الصعاب والتحديات. ناقشنا في هذه الحلقة:
-من الستاند أب كوميدي إلى عالم التلفزيون: هل حرية التعبير في خطر؟
-تعليقات كابوسية من الجمهور
-حرب المشاهير مقابل الحرب الحقيقية القائمة
-هل الشعب اللبناني صامد أم في حالة إنكار؟
-قصص من ميديا ومعين وجون عن الفشل والنجاح والعزيمة
