Historian Faisal Husain wrote the book "Rivers of the Sultan: The Tigris and Euphrates in the Ottoman Empire" and in this episode, helps us explore the history of the Tigris and Euphrates. He argued for the necessity of understanding human history within the context of geological time, discussing the rivers' origins roughly 20 million years ago, tracing their influence on civilization from the "agricultural revolution" (which some scholars argue was a mistake leading to health issues) to the rise of early urban centers like the Sumerian cities. The conversation highlights the difference between the gentle Euphrates, which attracted early settlements, and the fast and unpredictable Tigris. Shifting to the Ottoman era, Husain examines the environmental challenges of Ottoman Iraq, which was poor in essential resources like grain, metal, and wood suited for construction, and details the extraordinary story of the Euphrates river changing its course in the late 1600s due to a poorly dug irrigation canal. He emphasizes the cultural importance of the palm tree and the vital role of water buffaloes, which made life possible for a quarter of the Iraqi population in the wetlands, whose fate would have otherwise been migration to seek resources and refuge elsewhere. 0:00 Introduction1:47 When Did the Tigris and Euphrates Start?3:04 The Importance of Deep History5:49 Geological Origins: 20 Million Years Ago7:37 When the Rivers Began to Matter to Homo Sapiens10:40 The Rationale for Writing Deep History12:00 Starting Middle East History Before 6th Century Arabia14:45 The Difference Between the Twin Rivers17:05 Why Sumerian Civilization Clustered on the Euphrates20:36 Questioning the Agricultural Revolution23:16 How Agriculture Began: Trial and Error27:00 The Consequences of Taming Nature30:40 The Ottoman Conquest of Iraq32:20 Why Iraq Was Environmentally Poor for a Major Power36:06 Iraq's Default Status Under Iranian States38:25 Baghdad in the 16th Century42:25 The Euphrates Shifts Course (Late 1600s)47:09 Water Buffaloes: The Essential Technology of the Wetlands49:28 Ranking the Most Important Crops51:03 Evliya Çelebi: The Traveler54:49 Ottoman vs. European Traveler Perspectives58:35 The Book Cover: Baghdad on the Tigris Faisal Husain is an environmental historian of the Ottoman Empire, with a geographical focus on its eastern provinces in Anatolia and Iraq and a temporal focus on the early modern period. His first book "Rivers of the Sultan" examined the role of the Tigris and Euphrates in the establishment of Ottoman state institutions in the Ottoman eastern borderland between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries. His second book project is an environmental history of Ottoman frontier expansion east of the Euphrates during the sixteenth century. He is co-editing a book on the global histories of animals (under contract with Oxford University Press) with Emily Wakild (Boise State University) and Nancy Jacobs (Brown University). In 2024-2025, he served as a senior lecturer at Boğaziçi University's Department of History in Istanbul through the Fulbright U.S. Scholar Program. He serves on several editorial boards, including those of Marmara Türkiyat Araştırmaları Dergisi (Marmara University), Global Environment (White Horse Press), and the “Middle East Environmental Histories” book series (Leiden University Press).

We've all heard the advice: build a following and usually, that turns into building a community. More often than not, that community defaults to a Discord server, regardless of the game or the audience it's meant to serve. The problem is, what works for one game doesn't automatically work for another. Today, we're digging into how community needs, interests, and expectations change depending on the intended audience, and how teams can build more engaging and sustainable communities without forcing players into spaces or systems that don't actually fit.

Faisal sits down with Hamza Tzortzis for one of those conversations that starts with "bro you lost weight?"… and ends up deep in ḥikmah, the algorithm, tadabbur, and why modern Muslims are quietly outsourcing their brains to AI. Hamza breaks down: why "1/3 food, 1/3 water, 1/3 air" is a limit, not a target how hunger can be reframed as your body repairing itself his "B + C + D" framework for living with intention (and keeping everything Allāh-centric) why short-form content can't be your whole dā'wah strategy how the algorithm reshapes your morals without you noticing why natural beauty and Qur'anic beauty are antidotes to ego + modernity why "scientific miracles in the Qur'an" can be a trap, and the more robust approach he built (and wrote a whole PhD on) what Sapience Institute is doing behind the scenes, and the launch of Sapience Academy to train 10,000 intellectual ambassadors by 2030 If you've ever felt like the internet is making everyone louder, harsher, and dumber… this one will recalibrate you.

Did you know that the descendants of Ishmael have played a key role in helping the people of Israel?In this episode of the Curt Landry Podcast, Rabbi Curt is joined by special guest Dr. Faisal Malick, a former Muslim who shares his radical encounter with Jesus and God's heart to rescue, restore, and redeem the descendants of Ishmael. Ishmael means “God hears.” For thousands of years, wounded by the pain of fatherlessness, Muslim hearts have been crying out, and the God of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob hears them and is responding in glorious ways. The agenda of Islam cannot compete with God's vision for the Muslim people. They are not the enemy, but God's unfinished story. Join Rabbi Curt and Dr. Faisal Malick as they share the important distinction between the Muslim people and the Islamic religion that holds them hostage, highlighting passages in the Bible where the descendants of Ishmael were involved in helping key Jewish leaders. This is the hour of One New Man reconciliation, for Believers to arise and participate in God's prophetic rescue mission to bring Ishmael home.Dr. Malick's book, "Ishmael Returns: God's Vision vs. Islam's Agenda for Muslims," is available at https://www.faisalmalick.com or on Amazon.Connect with Dr. Faisal Malick on Instagram | @faisalmalick

LIVE UK TOUR: https://fg.live   Faisal's away… so the FG lot took the mic. In this catch-up, Ibrahim, Kaya and Sulaiman talk Dubai coffee shop culture (including the "free booth for 2 hours" spot), what they're working on right now, and why "start now" beats waiting for New Year motivation. They also go deep on what's actually working on social media right now: raw FaceTime-style content, personality-first posting, and why people can smell "ChatGPT script energy" from a mile away. Plus: building a personal brand as your modern-day CV, getting serious about health without becoming a militant calorie counter, and why accountability is the missing ingredient for most people's goals.

What did the 6-year track benefit for you, and what do you recommend for others to pursue with the MD?”21:11 – “If periodontists are filling the gap at the dental schools—doing implants, sedations, managing complications—what does that mean for oral surgery's foothold and for who gets called when something goes wrong?”32:32 – “If we don't make full-arch ‘all-on-X' a real requirement in OMFS training, is one of the other professions going to step in and own that space instead of us?”41:13 – “What drove you, during residency at Case Western, to go into the cosmetics direction? Did any other people from your program graduate and take that same path?”43:59 – “Do you have any residents rotate through your practice right now, or is it very separate from the residency?”

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Saudi Arabia’s former intelligence chief, Prince Turki bin Faisal, spoke with Magid on Sunday and said that Riyadh is currently not even entertaining the idea of normalizing relations with Israel and will only do so if Jerusalem begins acting like a “normal country.” We hear how Israel could behave more "normally" and what else the royal family member said. US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee held a rare meeting with Palestinian Authority Vice President Hussein al-Sheikh in Ramallah last Wednesday to discuss ongoing tensions in the West Bank. We speak about the fraught US-PA ties and how this meeting comes on the heels of increased cooperation surrounding ceasefire efforts in the Gaza Strip. And finally, US Vice President JD Vance claimed in an interview on Sunday that almost no Americans are antisemitic and that concerns about antisemitic voices are raised as a way to avoid discussing “a real backlash to a consensus view in American foreign policy” on Israel. Magid delves into this thorny issue, even as attacks against Jews in the US continue to be at a high since the Hamas attack on southern Israel on October 7, 2023. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Chancellor Rachel Reeves calls it "good news for families with mortgages and businesses with loans" - but says there's "more to do". Meanwhile, the Bank now expects no economic growth at the end of this year. Faisal is with Tristan in the studio to talk it through.And, tension is still building between the US and Venezuela. President Donald Trump has ordered "a total and complete" blockade of all sanctioned oil tankers entering and leaving Venezuela - a move denounced by Caracas as "warmongering threats".

This time on A Productive Conversation, I sit down with someone who has spent decades at the intersection of technology, leadership, and what it means to remain truly human. Faisal Hoque isn't just writing about AI from afar—he has lived inside this world for more than thirty years. From founding multiple companies to advising global organizations and government agencies, he brings a rare blend of deep technical expertise and grounded philosophical clarity.In this conversation, we get into his newest book, Transcend: Unlocking Humanity in the Age of AI, and explore the place where innovation meets conscience. We talk about fear and fascination, the frameworks that help us navigate uncertainty, and the practical ways AI is already reshaping how we think, work, and relate. It's a wide-ranging, honest exchange about what we stand to gain—and what we can't afford to lose.Six Discussion PointsWhy the rise of generative AI is only the beginning—and why thinking still mattersHow fear and fascination operate as “twin cousins” in our relationship with emerging technologyUsing the OPEN and CARE frameworks as complementary guides for opportunity and riskWhat organizations often overlook when AI governance becomes purely operationalThe philosophical crossroads ahead: outsourcing cognition vs. elevating human capacityHow empathy, devotion, and even love should shape the way we design and interact with technologyThree Connection PointsTranscend: Unlocking Humanity in the Age of AIFaisal's websiteFaisal's writing at Psychology TodayGetting to speak with Faisal reinforced something I've been thinking about for a long time: technology can extend what we do, but only we can determine who we become. AI may accelerate our output, sharpen our insights, and open new doors—but it can't choose our purpose. That part remains ours. This conversation left me more convinced than ever that if we want a future worth inhabiting, we have to bring our humanity to the center of it.

In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast, I'm chatting with Faisal Abdalla. You'll likely know him as one of the HYROX MCs and the voice you hear at finish lines around the world, but he's far more than that. Faisal trains hard, races regularly, and recently completed a half Ironman while juggling HYROX events, coaching, and family life. We talk about how he approaches the role, how his PMA philosophy guides him on and off the mic, and the insights he's gained from watching thousands of athletes race, struggle, and finish right in front of him. We also get into the moments that stand out after years inside the arena, what it takes to give that much energy every weekend, and how he's built a career that spans Barry's Bootcamp, coaching, film sets, and some of the biggest HYROX stages in the world. It was a fun and honest chat, and I think you'll really enjoy it.

Sundar Pichai, chief executive of Google and Alphabet, acknowledges that no company is immune from the risks of an AI investment bubble, including Google itself, and warns that the rapid growth of artificial intelligence will lead to significant societal disruptions. Speaking to BBC Economics Editor Faisal Islam he explains that, despite the company's scale and diversified approach, overinvestment in artificial intelligence could still require Google to navigate challenging phases, just as any other business would.

He outlines Google's efforts to invest in renewables, nuclear, and geothermal energy, and describes the company's commitment to achieving 95% carbon-free operations in the UK by 2026. Pichai notes that the speed of AI expansion is testing the limits of existing sustainability targets, but maintains that technological progress can support both economic and environmental objectives.He also addresses the evolution of copyright frameworks, and the responsibilities of technology companies. He discusses the UK's ambition to become an AI superpower, the importance of scaling energy infrastructure, and the need for responsible development to ensure that the benefits of AI are widely shared.00:20 Felicity and Faisal set out interview 02:00 Sundar Pichai joins the interview 03:30 Google now spending 90 billion dollars annually on AI 04:05 Is AI a Bubble? 05:51 Google's AI strategy 07:03 The power and potential of AI agents 08:34 Automation, jobs, and societal Impact 11:07 Advice for the next generation 11:50 AI accuracy, and truth 14:22 Energy demands & climate impact 16:48 Google's UK investments 18:25 Copyright issues 22:26 Immigration, talent, and innovation 23:12 AI as Open Source 25:31 Quantum computing & future technologies

Adam is joined by Chris, Faisal and Ailbhe Rae, Political Editor of The New Statesman to wrap up the week. This episode of Newscast was recorded as part of our 25-hour Podcast-a-thon for Children in Need.Newscast brings you daily analysis of the latest political news stories from the BBC. The presenter was Adam Fleming. It was made by Jack Maclaren with Joe Wilkinson. The social producer was Grace Braddock. The assistant editor is Chris Gray. The senior news editor is Sam Bonham.

Kaya and Faisal break down the rise of a Muslim founder whose AI company is now valued at $3B—from coding in a Jordanian internet café and getting rejected by YC four times… to building a browser-based IDE in 2016, then pivoting into agentic AI that codes, debugs, and deploys while you sleep. We pull out the real lessons: grit over hype, "die on the path," and why building within halal limits brings barakah (with cautionary stories about riba). We also spotlight MENSPIRE, a global barbershop chain built on Muslim values (no music, no gossip, family-safe) that still scaled—proof you can build infrastructure for the community without compromising. Plus: dopamine from doing (not doom-scrolling), showing up daily, and being agile like water when markets shift.

From Lonely to Angry: Understanding Incels (And How Good Men Lose Their Way)Some men don't start off angry. They start off lonely. Rejected. Invisible. Neglected in childhood.But when the pain festers long enough, it turns into something darker: the incel mindset.In this raw and unflinching episode, Faisal, Chuck, and Ari dive into one of the internet's most controversial subcultures — involuntary celibates (incels). These are men who want relationships but can't get them, and the frustration has curdled into isolation, shame, and sometimes rage.But here's what most people miss: Incels share many traits with Nice Guys. Both crave connection yet fear rejection. Both seek approval from women and feel powerless when they don't get it. The difference? Nice Guys hide their resentment. Incels express it — just not face-to-face.In this episode, we explore:What incels actually are (and why this phenomenon is growing)The mental health crisis: depression, anxiety, and isolationWhy some men didn't procreate throughout history (evolutionary psychology perspective)How the internet created echo chambers that trap lonely menFaisal's powerful story of coaching an incel — and what he learnedThe victim mindset: Why identifying as "involuntarily celibate" keeps you stuckThe "black pill" belief system and incel terminology (Chads, Staceys, and nihilism)How Nice Guys and incels differ: Hope vs. giving upThe generational shift: Why young men aren't pursuing relationships like they used toEconomic reality: When you can't afford independence, relationships feel impossibleChuck's controversial take: Is sex really the answer? (Spoiler: No)Why comparison culture and social media poison your soulThe trap of expecting life to hand you perfectionHow resentment and victimhood become a prisonThe hard truth? Being an incel isn't involuntary. It's a choice to stay stuck in resentment, victimhood, and isolation. There IS a path forward — but it requires rejecting the black pill, doing the work, and choosing growth over bitterness.This isn't about attacking incels. It's about understanding how good men lose their way — and showing them there's another path. One that leads to connection, purpose, and power.If you're stuck, isolated, or angry at the world — this episode is for you.Like. Comment. Subscribe.

If you're asking either question, this episode is for you.Faisal, Ari, and Chuck dive deep into the mindset behind these toxic questions — and more importantly, how to shift from scarcity thinking to abundance in relationships. They get brutally honest about their own dark periods: failed marriages, emotional hostage situations, trauma bonding, and the wounds that kept them stuck in victim mode.Here's what we unpack:The psychology behind "what do you bring to the table" thinking (spoiler: it's rooted in pain and immaturity) How unhealed wounds sabotage every relationship you enter Why most people enter relationships from deficit instead of wholeness The difference between being needy vs. being whole and self-sufficient What healthy women actually do bring: beauty, nurturing, social connection, aesthetic sense What conscious men bring: leadership, protection, direction, emotional stability The "garden metaphor" — how to tend your relationship instead of just taking from itThis isn't about gender wars or pickup artist nonsense. It's about doing the inner work so you can actually appreciate what others offer instead of keeping score like a wounded child.Whether you're bitter from divorce, struggling in your current relationship, or single and cynical — this conversation will challenge you to look in the mirror first. Because until you heal your own wounds and show up whole, you'll keep attracting the same dysfunction.Time to stop asking what others bring to the table and start asking what kind of person you're becoming.

Is It Dangerous to Be a Man? Why Masculinity Gets Criticized Instead of CelebratedA coal miner shows up to his son's basketball game still covered in soot. He rushed straight from work to keep his promise. The photo goes viral — but not for the reason you'd think.Instead of celebrating his dedication, the internet tears him apart. "Performative masculinity." "Virtue signaling." "He could've washed his face."And that's when it hit us: No matter what a man does, someone will find a way to criticize it.In this powerful conversation, Chuck, Faisal, and Ari unpack one of the most uncomfortable truths of modern masculinity: being a man feels like walking through a minefield of judgment, shame, and cancel culture.In this episode, we explore:Why showing up as yourself can get you canceledThe difference between how masculine and feminine energy "destroys" — and why it mattersHow growing up in the feminist era made men feel guilty for being menWhy "mansplaining" and similar terms are designed to disempowerThe schoolyard mentality of men vs. women hatred — and how to rise above itWhat happens when you own your flaws instead of apologizing for themHow to develop thick skin in a world that loves tearing people downWhy empowering men doesn't come at women's expenseThe truth? When men feel disempowered, nobody wins. Not men. Not women. Not society.This isn't about playing victim. It's about standing up, owning who you are (flaws included), and refusing to collapse under criticism. It's about building connection instead of division.Whether you're tired of walking on eggshells, struggling with shame about your masculinity, or just trying to figure out how to be a good man in a world that constantly tells you you're doing it wrong — this episode is for you.It's time to stop apologizing for being a man.Like.

Don't miss it — we won't!   Faisal Mirza is the Associate Vice President of the New York Hall of Science. With a career spanning iconic New York institutions—including the American Museum of Natural History, the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, the Empire State Building, One World Observatory, and even LaGuardia's Terminal B—he has led opening teams, built high-performance operations, and shaped guest experience at scale. At NYSCI, he champions “design, make, and play” through hands-on exhibits rooted in STEM and community impact. In this interview, Faisal talks about the oohs and ahhs, cost-effective vs. better, It's okay to be nice. The oohs and aahs “I think a lot of us have come into this industry because of the oohs and aahs that we are part of… you get those oohs and aahs and you get the wows.” Faisal ties the magic of reveal moments to operational purpose. He recalls One World Observatory's deliberate build-up: from the storytelling elevator ride to a dramatic reveal that regularly prompted applause and even tears. He emphasizes that leaders should revisit these moments frequently—stepping out of the back office to reconnect decisions and data with the guest's emotional response. At NYSCI, that same spark is cultivated by translating concepts into creation. Visitors learn about light, space, or insects, then head into the Design Lab to “use your hands,” turning ideas into tangible projects. That cycle—from discovery to making—keeps guests coming back for the “wow” and reminds teams why meticulous execution matters. Cost-effective vs. better “Should we look into being very cost-effective or being better? There's always balance… it goes back to what the organization is really looking for and how, as a leader, you can justify that process.” When choosing between a sign and a person, Faisal argues that “profitable” and “memorable” aren't always the same. At Terminal B, his team justified human touchpoints (e.g., pre- and post-TSA guidance) by instrumenting the experience with data: NPS, robust passenger surveys at the gate, mystery shops, and large-scale trainings. With measurable outcomes, “better” isn't a vague ideal—it's a defensible investment. He frames the decision as a strategic reflection of organizational DNA. In hyper-competitive markets, small touches compound: clear sightlines, open space, visible staff, and right-sized wayfinding all convert friction into confidence. The lesson for attractions is to define the guest standard, then measure relentlessly so quality choices stand up to budget scrutiny. It's okay to be nice “When you, as part of that team, see, ‘It's okay to be nice. I didn't know that.' When you see others doing it and you're in that universe of everyone being nice, it's really great.” Faisal describes how staffing critical junctions, like the “recomposition” area right after TSA, signals a cultural norm: proactive help is expected. In fast-paced New York, hospitality can still thrive when leaders model it and operationalize it. By placing people where guests naturally feel uncertain, teams normalize courtesy, reduce stress, and elevate the entire journey. That mindset carries into museums and attractions. From shinier floors to warmer smiles, “little things” matter as much as headliners. Faisal's leadership lens blends big-picture reveals with micro-gestures that make visitors feel cared for, proving that kindness is both practical and powerful.   Faisal would like to thank everyone he's worked with over the years, because he's learned something from everyone at the different organizations he's been at.

Today, we discuss the aftermath of the Manchester synagogue attack as Greater Manchester Police say that one of the victims killed in yesterday's attack was hit by police gunfire as they shot the attacker. It's not yet clear whether this was the cause of death. Two Jewish men were killed when a man, who police believe to be Jihad Al-Shamie, drove a car at members of the public before stabbing people. Three people remain in hospital, with one also being treated for a non-life-threatening gunshot wound, police say.
