Did you know that only 15% of African safaris are Black-owned?Since their colonial origins in the late 19th century, the safari operations on the continent have largely been headed by white men, with local communities rarely seeing the benefits.(This extends beyond safaris to luxury tourism in Africa, which has been linked to extractive practices and degradation of local habitats.)Mitti Hicks is a travel writer and former broadcast journalist who first reported on this issue for Travel Noire.In this episode, Mitti will share how you can choose to do safari differently, seeing wild animals while supporting local communities AND black owner operators instead.We are an audience-supported platform.

The narratives that claim Muslims are "new" to Europe are in part fueling the Islamophobia we see on the continent and across the globe today. But what if we knew and celebrated the fact that Muslim people have always been an integral part of the European story?In Part 2 of our conversation, Tharik Hussain—an award-winning author, historian, and journalist—returns to help us dismantle the long-standing myth of Jews versus Muslims always fighting each other. We'll meet the Red-haired sultans of Europe, cover the Jewish and the Muslim Golden Age, and look at these 1,400 years of Muslim rule in Europe through its biggest context: that of co-existence.This season, we want to hear from you!

Matthew's biography of Jesus spans 28 chapters, and within it there are countless lessons and applications for contemporary readers. But anyone who wants to understand the good news about Jesus should start at the end, with the last five verses, the passage that Pastor Luke calls the "Great So-What." Pastor Luke looks at Matthew 28:16-20 in "Going Places."

For over 1,400 years, Muslims have been an integral part of Europe's story, yet their contributions to the continent's development and history have been pushed to the margins or erased altogether.Today's guest is bringing some of these forgotten stories back to the forefront. Tharik Hussain is an award-winning author, historian, and journalist based in the UK who specialises in global Muslim heritage and culture.He's written a book on Islam in the Western Balkans, Minarets in the Mountains, and his latest book, Muslim Europe: A Journey in Search of a 1,400-Year History, reveals the ancient, long-forgotten roots of Islam on the continent and how deeply interconnected the story of Muslims is with the story of Europe.Our conversation was so monumental that we broke it down into two parts.

Travel is a tool for validation, a way to say "I see you, I hear you, and your story matters." Today's guest, Muna Haddad, has built her long career in tourism around this principle.Muna is a powerful maker of change in the world of travel and someone I admire deeply. She is the founder of Baraka Destinations, an organization creating tourism experiences in Jordan's secondary, forgotten locations that center local narratives and give power back to where it belongs: local communities.Muna spent nearly two decades working in sustainable tourism. She founded the Jordan Trail Association, which promotes the 400-mile hiking trail that runs across the country, and helped create the Meaningful Travel Map of Jordan.This season, we want to hear from you!

Gary Aksamit grew up in Nebraska in the 80's. Still today the effects of the effect of farmers in the 80's lives large in his heart. We are being played and transparency is the only cure, but who really wants it?

If you're disillusioned with your current job, you're far from alone. Turns out, a whole generation is looking for a better road to career “success.” In the face of all this well-deserved disillusionment, I sought out the person behind the trending “millennial career crisis” hashtag to really get to the bottom of what the phenomenon is and why it seems to be affecting my generation especially.  Janel Abrahami is a career coach whose background in organizational psychology and corporate HR, and her own career crisis, make her the ideal advisor and spokesperson for forging a better path. Janel argues that, thanks to a heap of daunting factors, a “successful career” looks a lot different than it did in our parents' day. She joins me to break down her six pathways that help us take back ownership of our careers in the face of despair and disillusionment Retake control and design your own success: Six pathways that let you choose your own adventure; Why career dissatisfaction seems to be hitting millennials hard right now; The importance of resting before we jump and strategizing before we build; The broken social construct facing everyone working today.

At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all. LNG: 7/10 An example of the times. A decent idea to help solve a genuine issue and yet too many miss the point and bitch about tax vs levy vs fee. Greg Foran: 7/10 Back where he belongs. There is a book there. What he thought it might be and what it was, is several chapters worth. OT and cultural leave: 2/10 When you promise something as this Government did, especially around emotive issues like this, you've got to deliver. The fact this is real and still exists speaks to the angst around the race issues this country battles with. The Covid review: 8/10 I don't care if it's political. It's good its political. We all need a reminder of the damage and pain that results from incompetence and arrogance. Super Bowl: 8/10 The second most watched TV event ever, only behind the most watched TV event ever, which was also the Super Bowl. Spot the sport going places.

This month on Unpacked, we're diving into Afar's just-released Where to Go list—but this year's picks are different. In 2026, we want to lessen the burden on overtouristed destinations and expand visitation to other parts of the world. Our editors carefully selected 24 emerging regions and overlooked locales that will inspire your next great adventure. For Rabat, that means looking beyond the well-trodden streets of Marrakech and Fes to discover what Morocco's laid-back capital really offers—especially as Africa's largest music festival transforms the city into an open-air stage each summer. In this episode, host Aislyn Greene talks with Yulia Denisyuk, a travel writer and host of the podcast Going Places with Yulia. Yulia shares why this Atlantic coast city deserves a second look—from its free weeklong Mawazine music festival to a non-touristy medina, Andalusian gardens, Roman ruins, and dishes you won't find anywhere else in Morocco. She also reveals what's coming in 2026: new museums, UNESCO World Book Capital status, and a high-speed train connecting Rabat to Casablanca in just 35 minutes. Plan Your Rabat Getaway (First, explore our Morocco travel guide.) See and Do —Attend the Mawazine Festival, Africa's largest music festival, a free weeklong celebration featuring artists from around the world —Explore Chellah, a Roman settlement dating to the first century that doubles as a festival stage —Wander the Kasbah of the Oudayas, a 12th-century Islamic fort overlooking the Atlantic Ocean —Stroll through the Andalusian Gardens for mint tea and ocean views —Take a water taxi across the Bou Regreg River to Salé and back —Browse the medina, where locals shop, have tea, and produce books—a less touristy experience than Marrakech —Visit Mohamed Aziz, a famous bookseller in the medina who has read thousands of books and loves to discuss them Eat and Drink —Try Rabati pastilla, the "royal" version with thick layers and lots of eggs, influenced by Moorish settlers from Andalusia —Seek out kefta, meatballs made with spices unique to Rabat that you won't find elsewhere in Morocco —Eat fresh shrimp and seafood from the Atlantic coast —Sip mint tea at cafes along the riverfront promenade Know Before You Go —In 2026, Rabat becomes UNESCO World Book Capital, with literary events and celebrations starting in April —A new high-speed train will reduce travel time between Casablanca and Rabat from two hours to 35 minutes —The Mawazine Festival typically takes place in late June —Spring and autumn offer milder temperatures; summer is hot but tempered by Atlantic breezes —The medina, Kasbah, and Chellah are all within walking distance of each other Resources • Listen to Yulia's podcast, Going Places with Yulia • Follow Yulia on Instagram • Visit Yulia's website • Explore all 24 destinations on Afar's Where to Go in 2026 list • Follow us on Instagram: @afarmedia Listen to All the Episodes in our Where to Go 2026 Series E1: T⁠⁠⁠his Island in the Bahamas Promises Pink Sand, Historic Hideaways, and Perfect Solitude ⁠⁠⁠ E2: ⁠⁠⁠Why Peru's Second City Might Be Its Best-Kept Secret⁠⁠ E3: ⁠⁠The New 170-Mile Hiking Network Connecting Stockholm's Dreamy Archipelago⁠⁠ E4: Route 66 Turns 100—and Albuquerque Is Ready to Celebrate E5: Why Morocco's Chill Capital Deserves Your Attention (this one!)

If there is one episode you listen to this season, let it be this one. It revolves around these questions: how do we heal the world? How do we practice love?Today, we're speaking with Hadar Cohen, an Arab Jewish scholar, mystic, and artist whose work focuses on multi-religious spirituality, politics, social issues, and community building. Hadar comes from a 10th-generation Jerusalem family with lineage roots in Syria, Kurdistan, Iraq, and Iran.Hadar's story is one that we don't often hear in the mainstream conversations in the Global North, because she comes from the Sephardic Jewish lineage: the branch of Judaism that originated in Spain at the time of Moorish Al Andalus, more closely related to the traditions of the Near East, rather than Europe.Become a Going Places member for as little as $6 a month.

Fingal County Council has approved plans to introduce paid parking at Blanchardstown Shopping Centre, despite growing local protests. The new system, proposed by the centre's owners, aims to improve traffic flow, but residents, workers and public representatives say it will place extra costs on staff and undermine what has long been a key community space in Dublin 15.So, is parking getting too expensive? And have you ever decided not to go somewhere simply because the parking charges put you off?Guest host Anna Daly is joined by listeners to discuss.

Today, we're sharing a preview of the kinds of conversations we have during our monthly First Fridays group calls inside our paid Going Places members' community.You'll hear from our paid members Dr. Anu Taranath, a University of Washington professor and lecturer on human rights, who wrote a book called Beyond Guilt Trips: Mindful Travel in an Unequal World, and Dee Flower, a former park ranger and author of Where the Wind Wills, an adventure-driven travel memoir.Our paid members come from all walks of life, but what unites them is a shared passion for travel, equality, and moving through the world as aware and engaged citizens of it. At the beginning of every month, we get together to discuss the projects we're working on, get support with personal or professional challenges, and simply be in community with one another, an act we do not take lightly in our increasingly isolated world.Going Places is an audience-supported platform.

Today is the last episode of the season! I hope you enjoyed spending your time with us.We're taking an eight-week break, during which I will focus on completing my two book proposals. Wish me luck! We will be back with new episodes in September.The ability to go anywhere is something that many of us probably don't pay much attention to in our day-to-day lives. If we have a powerful passport like that of the United States, some savings or a credit card, and the ability to do flexible, remote work, we can travel somewhere at a moment's notice. But for many people around the world, that is not the case. So today, I want to pose some questions about what it means.Become a Going Places member for as little as $6 a month.

Today, we're speaking with Matt Bowles, a longtime Palestinian human rights activist.With a Master's Degree in International Peace and Conflict Resolution, Matt has over two decades of human rights and activism experience. He led activist delegations to monitor human rights abuses in the north of Ireland, co-founded an organization to stop U.S. aid to Israel, organized solidarity delegations to the West Bank and Gaza Strip, and did solidarity work with the indigenous Zapatista communities in Chiapas, Mexico.In the past few years, many more people around the world have tuned in to the injustice that has been happening in Palestine for the past 75 years. If you want to understand the origins of this injustice AND what you can do to help stop it, this episode is for you. I first became immersed in the struggle for Palestinian liberation in 2017, when I visited the West Bank and saw the Israeli soldiers at checkpoints, the humiliation of people, the treatment of Arabs like second-class citizens, and the Israeli system of apartheid with my own eyes. Matt has been working on Palestinian solidarity since 1998. It has been so helpful to hear the perspective of someone with this much longer view on the struggle.
