Welcome to another episode of The Cheer Up Luv Podcast! This week I am speaking to the incredibly talented writer, author, performer, and filmmaker Amrou Al-Kadhi, or Glamrou as some may know them. I've been looking forward to speaking to Amrou ever since I finished their book, ‘Life As A Unicorn' , an incredibly moving memoir documenting their journey from shame to pride, navigating growing up in the Middle East, attending the boarding school Eton, questioning their Muslim faith, and finding themselves through drag, as a queer British Iraqi. In this episode we speak about how TERF's are using the campaign to end violence against women and girls for their agenda, the vocal transphobic right wing media, and how we can make public spaces safer for all. TW: In this episode we discuss themes to do with transphobia, and will be reading out an experience of sexual harassment to discuss and myth bust at the end of the show.

Jackie Kay is the national poet of Scotland and has taken her Makar duties seriously. She has written a weekly poem during lockdown, brought art into people’s homes with the broadcast Makar to Makar and written about the Black Lives Matter protests. She joins Richard Coles and Bridgitte Tetteh to discuss the timely reissue of her play The Lamplighter which follows five characters who are sold into the British slave trade. Emily Kolltveit was the lead singer of a goth metal band for nearly a decade before she joined the priesthood. Her tour schedule saw her perform in beautiful churches around Europe, awakening an interest in God. Emily has started her new role at a church in Primrose Hill, London where she wants to spread the message of social justice. Personal trainer Ben Mudge has always lived with the threat of a deadly lung infection, having grown up with Cystic Fibrosis. Despite this, he has been the cover model for Men’s Fitness magazine and, because he looks remarkably like the Marvel character Thor, he dresses up to inspire children and other people with Cystic Fibrosis. Writer and performer Amrou Al-Kadhi founded the drag troupe Denim, whilst studying at Cambridge. Amrou recently won the Somerset Maugham Award for young writers for their memoir Life as a Unicorn which describes their transformation from a god-fearing Muslim boy to a drag queen, strutting the stage in seven-inch heels and saying the things nobody else dares to. And we have the Inheritance Tracks of singer and ex-Spandau Ballet frontman Tony Hadley. Producer: Laura Northedge Editor: Eleanor Garland
Amrou Al-Kadhi is an Iraqi-British writer, performer and filmmaker based in the UK who is redefining what it means to create mainstream entertainment. In this episode, we talk about drag as an expression of culture and gateway into writing, navigating the US and UK entertainment industries, their book Life as a Unicorn, writing the finale of Little America, and more! Insta: @glamrou Twitter: @glamrou www.amroualkadhi.com
Mobeen is joined by author of the book Unicorn, Amrou Al-Khahi, who will read passages of their autobiography and talk about the issues that arise. At the heart of the book is Amrou's search for acceptance and love from family and society. It details their life from a god-fearing Muslim boy enraptured with their mother, to a vocal, queer drag queen estranged from their family and all that happens in between. Mobeen and Amrou look and discuss the main themes travelling through the book including growing up feeling an outsider, the academic drive for acceptance and finally finding drag as a way of breaking free of shame.
Amrou Al-Kadhi also known as Glamrou is a writer, drag performer, filmmaker and author. Their memoir, 'Life as a Unicorn: A Journey from Shame to Pride and Everything in Between' is out now. In this special episode, we return to a conversation we first had with Glamrou back in February when they talked to Krishnan about their challenge to merge their queerness with their Islamic heritage, going to Eton and getting into drag. And we catch up with them again now to hear about how lockdown has affected them and their reaction to the growing debate on transgender people and Black Lives Matter.
For a long time, Amrou Al-Kadhi struggled to negotiate the intersections between their queer and Islamic heritage. These identities felt completely polarised, as if Amrou's identity was founded on a tectonic fault at constant risk of rupture. Yet, it was the unlikely world of quantum physics that allowed Amrou to find the magic of contradictions, and to revel in their intersectional identity. This talk was filmed at TEDxLondon.

This week Amanda Litherland recommends two brilliant new podcasts. Firstly, Olympic champion Dame Kelly Holmes discusses her new series 'What Do I Do?' Having experienced her own difficulties with depression and self-harm, in this podcast Kelly sets out to discover how other people cope, talking to TV personalities, writers, comedians, journalists and more about their mental health. Including Davina McCall, Eddie Izzard, Alastair Campbell and Munroe Bergdorf. After that Caitlin Benedict and Amrou Al-Kadhi join Amanda to talk about their BBC series 'NB'. You might have heard the term non-binary. This is how it feels. Join Caitlin and Amrou as they ask the big questions about gender and identity.
What do you do when you realise you’re non-binary? How do you come out to yourself? How do you find people like you? Caitlin Benedict is coming out. But before they begin, they need to really understand what it’s like to live as non-binary: to exist as neither completely male nor completely female in a world usually confined to two options. So Caitlin has enlisted the help of their friend and mentor Amrou, and together they set off for Brighton, and the Museum of Transology where curator EJ Scott shares his wisdom about life outside the gender binary, the incredible trans community in the UK, and how best to transport a pair of breasts. And Amrou takes Caitlin to meet their best friend, artist Victoria Sin. Presented by Caitlin Benedict & Amrou Al-Kadhi Produced by Caitlin Benedict, Arlie Adlington and Georgia Catt
We find out what happened when Amrou Al-Kadhi aka Glamrou did love duets to Allah in a thong.
A company's supply chain is vital to success. From the planning of raw inputs, to the shipping of the final product, the supply chain touches nearly every aspect of the business. Years ago, many companies operated using the traditional model of supply chain management: buy all the resources at the cheapest rate possible. In today's business world, the supply chain model has shifted with more companies building long-term relationships with their suppliers and ensuring they are operating responsibly. Kelley Assistant Professor of Operations Management Amrou Awaysheh reveals his eye-opening research on this topic and gives managers tips on improving their company's supply chain.
