Podcasts about Hussein

Note: there is a part at the beginning of the episode that will sound like we left in an editing mistake, but we assure you……….it's intentional. It's Riley, Milo, Hussein, and November, checking in with Jan Marsalek (to an extent), hearing about an orb that can tell if you're a chatbot or not, and reviewing Janice Turner's absolutely bananas article about ‘the lanyard class.' Apparently we did too much corporate CYA training and now the only recourse is to do full fascism. Or something?

In February, King Abdullah II of Jordan rebuffed US President Donald Trump's proposal for his country to absorb Palestinians living in Gaza — part of the now infamous “Riviera” plan. When dealing with the Trump administration, the Jordanian king is certainly caught in a bind between rejecting Palestinian displacement and restoring the flow of foreign assistance from Washington. An aid-reliant economy notwithstanding, Amman has longstanding identity issues arising from citizens of Palestinian origins, tracing back to the aftermath of the 1948 war which saw Jordan's population triple with the addition of Palestinian refugees and inhabitants of the West Bank. Domestically, Jordan's recent parliamentary elections held last September produced a strong Islamist showing, with the Islamic Action Front (IAF) — the political arm of the Muslim Brotherhood — emerging as the largest bloc in the legislative body. Amman also had to navigate the succession crisis in 2021 involving Prince Hamzah bin Hussein, whose house arrest and subsequent public reconciliation with King Abdullah II revealed underlying tensions within the Hashemite royal family. The Middle East Institute hosted Steve L. Monroe and Nicolai Due-Gundersen, two newly-minted authors and experts on Jordan, to address the above issues and more.

Notes on the Crises' Nathan Tankus returns to talk to Riley about 100 days of DOGE, and the catastrophic risks those broccoli haired little rascals pose the entire global financial system, in addition to the moral depravity of the whole enterprise. In the first half, Riley, Milo, and Hussein discuss yet more in the “AI will replace the human soul” file, and call a winner in the interim Starmer-Trump 2025 capitulation contest… but finals are still all to play for!

The Simpsons, South Park, Family Guy, American Dad, and more all-American animated adult tv comedies have graced our screens for decades, mercilessly interrogating the all-American life and if it's all it's cracked up to be. But rarely do we get one of these series from an Arab and Muslim perspective, until now with Ramy Youssef and Pam Brady's #1 Happy Family USA, featuring the Egyptian-American Hussein family, including young insecure Rumi (Ramy Youssef), his wildly insecure father Hussein (also Ramy Youssef), his caring and overburdened mother Sharia (Salma Hindy), overachieving and closeted older sister Mona (Alia Shawkat), conservative Grandpa (Azhar Usman), and niqabi and free-spirited Grandma (Randa Jarrar). Set in the early 2000s in New Jersey, right around an astronomically horrible national event, we watch the Hussein family deal with the outlandish racism, surveillance, and Islamophobia every single day, and their own outlandish efforts to deal with it. All characters and the animation style were designed by Iraqi-British data journalist Mona Chalabi. Joined by our friend Nadia Osman, we discuss the series and why it's a landmark for SWANA and Muslim representation, the great casting news about Lee Cronin's The Mummy, give our recommendations, and much more.   Spoilers for all of #1 Happy Family USA throughout   Donate to Anera  Donate to help Sudanese people feeling geopolitical violence Support the Palestinian American Medical Association (PAMA) and families in Gaza Islamic Relief USA: Support Families in Palestine   Our music is composed by Ashley Hefnawy.

And then, what it was like to inspire other Latina leaders to go down that path with her with with her second, "Latinas in Public Relations: Shaping Communications, Communities, and Culture."Thanks to Hussein for having Melissa on her show to talk about her journey!

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has appointed a veteran aide Hussein al-Sheikh as vice president. The move came a week after the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan outlawed the Muslim Brotherhood, which it says threatened its regime. Dr. Ronnie Shaked, Dr. Ronnie Shaked, an expert on Palestinian Affairs at the Truman Research Institute for the Advancement of Peace at Hebrew University of Jerusalem, said that Al-Sheikh was just as corrupt and despised as Abbas and would not likely succeed him. He told reporter Arieh O’Sullivan, that the move by Jordan’s King Abdullah the Second to outlaw the Muslim Brotherhood was a move to bolster Jordanian identity and likely a temporary ban.

Được biết đến với những bức hình dọc sông Mêkông, nhiếp ảnh gia, nhà báo ảnh người Pháp gốc Việt vẽ lại hành trình hơn 30 năm sự nghiệp, qua cuốn sách « Kurdistan, mon ami », kể về vùng đất xa lạ, nhưng gần gũi, khiến ông chia sẻ những đau thương với một dân tộc Kurd phải chịu nhiều mất mát vì chiến tranh, xung đột. Sinh ra tại Paksé, Lào, nhiếp ảnh gia người người Pháp gốc Việt Lâm Đức Hiền, được biết đến qua những tấm ảnh được đăng trên những tờ báo lớn của Pháp như Libération, Le Monde hay Paris Match. Ông cũng giành được nhiều giải thưởng về nhiếp ảnh tại Pháp đặc biệt là giải quán quân Word Press Photo cho bộ ảnh « Gens d'Irak » - Những người dân Irak.Vào cuối năm 2024, ông đã cho ra mắt độc giả tại Pháp cuốn « Kurdistan, mon ami » - « Kurdistan, người bạn của tôi », kể về những gắn bó của ông với mảnh đất chịu nhiều đau thương, nơi mà ông đặt chân đến cách nay 30 năm trong những ngày đầu sự nghiệp nhiếp ảnh. Với lối kể chuyện chậm rãi, tái hiện ký ức về cuộc gặp gỡ với người dân Irak, xen kẽ với những bức ảnh khó tả, cuốn sách là những đồng cảm của một « thuyền nhân » với dân tộc Kurdistan phải đi tị nạn, chốn chạy xung đột, chiến tranh, như một cách để « kể cho thế giới » về một dân tộc « chẳng ai quan tâm », về những nỗi đau ẩn giấu trong thế giới « Nghìn lẻ một đêm ».RFI Pháp ngữ đã có dịp phỏng vấn ông về cuốn sách có thể nói là đánh dấu 30 năm sự nghiệp nhiếp ảnh của người con sông Mêkông, ban Tiếng Việt  xin trích dịch.***Cuốn sách  « Kurdistan, mon ami », được giới thiệu như là một tác phẩm kể về hơn 30 năm làm nhiếp ảnh, báo ảnh của ông. Ông có thể giải thích lý do tại sao không ?Lâm Đức Hiền: Lần đầu tiên tôi đến Kurdistan cách nay hơn 30 năm. Đó là vào năm 1991, trong một chuyến đi hỗ trợ nhân đạo sau cuộc thảm sát người Kurd của Saddam Hussein. Lúc đó, tôi khám phá một dân tộc phải trả qua nhiều đau đớn, nhưng họ kiên cường và có khả năng phục hồi to lớn. Những chiến binh Peshmergas đã bảo vệ tôi, cho phép tôi làm việc, chụp ảnh họ. Tôi ở đó gần một năm, và vài năm sau đó, tôi trở thành nhiếp ảnh gia và tiếp tục quay lại thường xuyên.Tôi cũng đã suýt chết nhiều lần. Một lần trong vụ tai nạn xe hơi, nhưng người Kurd đã cứu tôi. Một lần khác, khi chế độ Hussein sụp đổ, tôi bị rơi vào giữa làn đạn của quân khủng bố al-Qaeda và quân đội Hoa Kỳ.Vào năm 2013, trong một lần đi làm phóng sự, tôi đã có một trải nghiệm đặc biệt đáng sợ, khiến tôi quyết định ngừng đưa tin về chiến tranh, và phải mất 10 năm sau, tôi mới có thể chữa lành vết thương và quay lại với nhiếp ảnh.Tuy nhiên, mối liên hệ với người Kurd vẫn mạnh mẽ, thôi thúc tôi quay lại để tìm những người tôi đã chụp ảnh vào năm 1991, tìm hiểu về họ, hiện giờ ra sao. Cuối cùng, tôi quyết định kể câu chuyện của họ thông qua một cuốn sách.Trong cuốn sách, ông đề cập đến những cuộc chạm trán quyết liệt, cũng như những cuộc gặp đáng nhớ, kết bạn với những người Kurd, mà một trong số họ đã trở thành những nhân vật quan trọng. Những mối liên hệ này đã ảnh hưởng thế nào đến công việc và tầm nhìn của ông về Kurdistan? Lâm Đức Hiền: Năm 2015, trong một lần làm việc cho tờ Le Monde, tôi vô tình đến chiến tuyến giữa người Kurd và tổ chức Nhà Nước Hồi Giáo Daech. Một chiến binh người Kurd trẻ tuổi đã hỏi tôi rằng đây có phải lần đầu tiên tôi đến Kurdistan không. Tôi cười và trả lời: "Không, trước khi cậu sinh ra, thì tôi đã ở đây rồi."Khi tôi cho cậu ấy xem những bức ảnh cũ của tôi từ năm 1991, chỉ huy của cậu ấy nhận ra rằng tôi đã chụp ảnh người đàn ông hiện trở thành bộ trưởng Quốc Phòng Kurdistan. Từ thời điểm đó, người này đã hỗ trợ tôi tất nhiều, đưa tôi đến những nơi đặc biệt, để thực hiện cuốn sách về người Kurd, về một dân tộc không được ai quan tâm. Dần dần, tôi tìm thấy những người mà tôi đã chụp ảnh nhiều thập kỷ trước. Có những người tị nạn trở thành mục sư, có những chiến binh trở thành nhà lãnh đạo. Cuốn sách này kể lại câu chuyện về họ, về những thay đổi của những người Kurd trong hơn 3 thập kỷ qua.Cuốn sách của ông không chỉ nói về những tác động của chiến tranh, mà còn về cuộc sống thường nhật của người Kurd, về sự kiên cường của dân tộc này. Ông có thể giải thích về cách tiếp cận này được không ?Lâm Đức Hiền:Tôi không muốn cuốn sách của mình thành một bản ghi chép, báo cáo về chiến tranh. Kurdistan không chỉ có chiến tranh, mà còn có những tái thiết, cuộc sống vẫn tiếp diễn.Tôi đã theo dõi một số người trong 30 năm. Ví dụ, một chiến binh Kurd đã cứu mạng tôi và nay, là một nông dân. Một người mà tôi chụp ảnh khi còn nhỏ, nay đã trở thành thủ tướng, và tổng thống. Cũng có một gia đình, vào năm 1991, họ sống trong một hang động tuyết, nay có một căn nhà và khu vườn. Đó là những câu chuyện mang lại linh hồn cho cuốn sách của tôi. Ngoài ra, tôi cũng chụp những phong cảnh của Kurdistan, những ngọn núi phủ tuyết, gợi nhớ đến Thụy Sĩ, những cánh đồng hoa,…, mà đằng sau vẻ đẹp đó, là những vùng đất bị tàn phá bởi chiến tranh, mà mỗi bước chân đều đầy rẫy những hiểm nguy.Tôi cũng muốn người Kurd đọc được cuốn sách này. Vì vậy tôi đã yêu cầu dịch sang tiếng của họ, để họ có thể nhận thấy mình trong lịch sử của Kurdistan, và nói rằng « đó là ký ức của chúng tôi ».Liệu trải nghiệm từng là thuyền nhân có ảnh hưởng đến cách tiếp cận của ông với tư cách là một nhiếp ảnh, nhà báo ảnh ?Lâm Đức Hiền:Tôi nghĩ rằng là một người tị nạn, ai cũng sẽ cảm thấy bị bỏ rơi, bị quên lãng. Bức hình đầu tiên trong cuốn sách là về một người phụ nữ, nước mắt lưng tròng, giơ tay lên, khiến lúc đầu, tôi tưởng là bà ấy không muốn bị chụp ảnh. Tôi nhìn thấy ở bà ấy hình ảnh của mẹ tôi, về khoảnh khắc mà chúng tôi phải đi tị nạn, qua sông Mêkông.Nhưng trên thực tế, bà ấy nói với tôi rằng « Hãy chụp hình tôi đi, hãy cho cả thế giới thấy rằng chúng tôi đang bị tàn sát ». Đó chính là điều thôi thúc tôi trở thành nhiếp ảnh gia. Bởi vì nếu không ai nói về thảm kịch này, thì giống như là những cảnh này không tồn tại, dân tộc này không tồn tại, khiến họ bị quên lãng. Và chính điều này đã thôi thúc tôi, cho tôi thấy sự cần thiết để chụp những bức ảnh, để làm chứng, trong suốt sự nghiệp của mình.Mở đầu cuốn sách, ông nói về Kurdistan như một « người bạn », ông có thể chia sẻ về những trải nghiệm của ông với « người bạn » này ?Lâm Đức Hiền: Phải nói rằng tình bạn và độ tin cậy không chỉ được thể hiện bằng lời nói mà có thể chứng minh qua hành động.Vào năm 1991, bạn tôi Kawa đã nói rằng : « Nếu một viên đạn bắn nhắm vào ông thì tôi sẽ đứng trước, chặn nó lại. Tôi nghĩ rằng đó chỉ là lời nói suông thôi, cho đến một ngày, ông ấy đứng chắn ở phía sau tôi, và lãnh một viên đạn vào vai. Tôi đã chở ông ấy đến bệnh viện và cứu ông ấy.Ba mươi năm sau, tôi tìm lại ông ấy. Tôi được biết là Kawai đã từng di cư đến Hà Lan trong nhiều năm, sau đó vì nhớ quê mà trở lại Kurdistan. Khi chúng tôi gặp lại, cứ như là chúng tôi chưa từng xa nhau.Khi ở với Kurd, không ai cảm thấy cô đơn cả. Khi có một vấn đề, lúc nào cũng có gia đình, cộng đồng, bạn bè giúp đỡ. Tình đoàn kết này gợi tôi nhớ đến văn hóa Á châu của mình. Sự ấm áp của tình người chính là điều mà tôi muốn truyền tải qua cuốn sách này.

Pendant la Première Guerre mondiale, les reportages du journaliste américain Lowell Thomas firent la notoriété de Thomas Edward Lawrence, écrivain et officier de liaison britannique durant la grande révolte arabe de 1916-1918. Après la guerre, la version abrégée de son témoignage sur cette campagne, Les Sept Piliers de la sagesse, qui en décrit le caractère aventureux, fut un succès de librairie. La version intégrale, publiée cinquante ans après sa mort, confirma son talent littéraire. Le film Lawrence d'Arabie, réalisé par David Lean en 1962 avec Peter O'Toole dans le rôle-titre, acheva de le faire entrer dans la légende...Lawrence est envoyé dans le Hedjaz pour une mission de collecte de renseignements sous la direction de Ronald Storrs. Là, il rencontre Fayçal Hussein, le fils du chérif Hussein Ben Ali, pour lui proposer de diriger la révolte. L'officier se charge d'assurer la liaison britannique auprès de l'état-major de Fayçal. Ensemble, ils vont mettre en place un plan pour renverser l'ennemi par la guérilla : zone par zone, mais sans engager directement de batailles frontales.

In this powerful conclusion to my conversation with Hussein Paymozd, we continue exploring his transformational leadership journey. Hussein shares how he evolved from a more authoritarian, top-down style to a leader committed to helping his team meet their basic psychological needs at work.He explains how his communication shifted when he adopted an internal control mindset, moving away from external motivators like rewards and punishments and toward a more inclusive, inspiring approach. Hussein also reflects on the profound impact of translating my book, Mental Freedom, into Farsi—both personally and professionally.For leaders still relying on control-based tactics, Hussein offers wise advice—and leaves us with a memorable quote that sums up his philosophy: "Even if you win the rat race, you're still a rat." I couldn't agree more.If you missed Part 1, be sure to check it out for the full picture of Hussein's transformation.Interested in becoming a Board Certified Coach (BCC) through Academy of Choice?

How far has Saudi come in the development of its entrepreneurship and tech ecosystem? Hussein Atar, a leading venture capitalist and tech influencer who has been on the ground floor of the movement in Saudi Arabia, discusses the significant progress and road ahead for Saudi Arabia's goals of becoming a global technology powerhouse. He shares his journey from being a tech startup founder to leading a venture capital fund, highlighting key milestones and government initiatives that have fostered entrepreneurship in the region. Hussein also talks about recent investments, the role of failure in the ecosystem, and the future outlook for tech startups in Saudi Arabia. The conversation provides insights into the challenges and opportunities in the burgeoning tech landscape of the Kingdom - both for entrepreneurs and investors.  Before the conversation and interview with Hussein, the hosts catch up and discuss some recent feedback on the show, before the conversation drifts off into an interesting non-sequitur regarding tattoos.  After the conversation, the hosts catch up on some of the latest news on Saudi Arabia.  About The TWENTY30 Podcast New futuristic cities built from scratch. Giga-projects. Major sports investments. Trillions in spending. An economy and society changing so quickly even locals sometimes can't believe their eyes. Saudi Arabia is on a mission to change itself from a conservative society with an oil-dominated economy to a modern and open society with a diversified economy - and to become a global tourism destination.

Focusing on high-quality companies, maintaining a long-term perspective, and adhering to strict valuation disciplines, Hussein explains how the team has navigated the volatile markets of the past two years.

Hussein asked me an interesting question. He said,  “I fractured my tibia and fibula. Is it normal after 50 days the fracture is still visible under x-ray, but I am walking with crutches and putting partial weight bearing without any pain or discomfort? My treatment was with a fiberglass cast without any surgery since the bones were not displaced.” Is it normal for a fracture to be visible on my x-ray after 50 days?  Well, that is a great question and that is what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run Podcast.

Last February, the Egyptian-American intellectual Hussein Aboubakr Mansour wrote an article in which he considered the possibility of a new idea of Palestinian nationalism. The IDF was destroying Hamas. The remnant of the Palestinian Authority's legitimacy and trust among the frustrated Palestinians—already weak—was decaying at an accelerated rate. The grotesque complicity of UNRWA in Hamas's crimes might yet deal enough of a blow to the international Palestine-human-rights complex that Mansour could allow himself to hope that the old idea of Palestine might be susceptible to being replaced by something different, something more constructive. A consequence of Hamas activating a series of events that led to war and defeat and destruction might also lead to an opportunity to re-found Palestinian nationalism on healthier foundations.   One year later, after watching Palestinians in Gaza cheering the remains of the Bibas children, murdered in Gaza and then kept as monstrous ransom, Mansour recently revised the possibility of a renewed Palestinian nationalism, and in light of all that has transpired, came to a different conclusion altogether.   Today, Hussein Aboubakr Mansour, a research fellow at the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism & Policy and contributor to Mosaic, joins Jonathan Silver to discuss his essay, “Why There Should Not Be a Palestine,” published on his Substack, the Abrahamic Critique and Digest.

After a young woman is found dead, police are quick to identify her killer. Gathering the proof wasn't quite as fast.

Hussein's travel startup was doing $10s of millions when COVID hit. His revenue didn't just go to zero, it went negative. There were more customers asking for refunds than new sales. He was 4 months from running out of money.He ended up making a complete pivot, he changed the company's name from SnapTravel to Super.com. He went from travel to fintech and launched a banking card. It seems like a strange pivot —but through deep research he'd realized what his customers truly needed. They needed more money—not for travel or vacations—but for every day life.The new card helped customers earn points and rewards, it helped them save on everyday expenses. The pain was so acute and the solution so perfect, that just 3 years later, Super.com is doing $150M in ARR.Like Hussein said, he got 50 'no's from VCs for every 'yes' he got. He saw his business grow and then crumble over night. He was literally going to zero. But he turned it all around. Now he's not just growing, he's profitable now.And here's how it went down.Why you should listen:How to think from first principles to figure out the right product expansion.Why cross-selling is much harder than you think, and how to make it work.Why finding an unfair advantage is key to scaling a startup.How to use actual customer behavior to understand what customers truly want.Why testing and validating ideas through smoke tests is essential.KeywordsSuper.com, SnapTravel, COVID-19, travel industry, pricing strategies, customer needs, market fit, entrepreneurship, AI, business growth, COVID-19, resilience, travel industry, financial innovation, membership model, customer insights, entrepreneurship, investor relations, business strategy, cross-sellingTimestamps:(00:00:00) Intro (00:02:39) The original startup: Snap Travel(00:08:40) Why a great user interface is a big edge(00:11:26) How to acquire customers(00:13:30) When your entire hypothesis is wrong(00:22:52) Meeting Steph Curry(00:29:03) Nearly crashing to zero-- and going bankrupt(00:33:51) Starting over and rebranding(00:42:42) Creating the Fastest Growing Membership Program(00:52:17) Finding Product Market Fit(01:00:00) One Piece of AdviceSend me a message to let me know what you think!

In this special roundtable episode, we dive into the power of in-person events in building and strengthening the San Diego startup ecosystem. I'm joined by two of my ecosystem-building besties: Jonah Peake of The Social Coyote and The Career Coyote and Hussein Yahfoufi of Startup Beach. Together, we discuss why community-driven events are essential, how they fuel startup growth, and what it takes to build a thriving local network. Jonah Peake has been a driving force in centralizing and curating San Diego's startup events through his Social Coyote newsletter. His passion for making connections easy has led him to compile the “Who You Need to Know in San Diego” list and build a resource hub for founders, job seekers, and ecosystem players. Hussein Yahfoufi saw a gap in the local event landscape and built Startup Beach, a platform that makes it easier for organizers and attendees to discover, share, and engage with events. The platform just hit 100 live events and recently launched the Asks & Offers feature to help the community better support one another. Links & Resources Mentioned:

How is artificial intelligence redefining industries, from corporate branding to cultural institutions? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Hussein Hallak, founder and CEO of Next Decentrum, about the profound ways AI and immersive technology are shaping customer experiences, education, and cultural preservation. With over 25 years of experience spanning branding, technology, gamification, and education, Hussein is a serial entrepreneur who has launched more than 20 ventures and advised startups globally. His work at Next Decentrum focuses on using AI and immersive tech to create meaningful, lasting value—moving beyond hype to real-world applications that transform industries. We explore how AI is not just optimizing efficiency but also revolutionizing storytelling, customer engagement, and global knowledge-sharing. Hussein discusses projects such as AI-powered holograms in tourism, the role of AI in making cultural heritage more accessible, and the challenges institutions face in adopting cutting-edge technology. He also shares his thoughts on AI's impact on learning, highlighting how it enables personalized, immersive experiences that accelerate skill development. With Vancouver emerging as a unique hub for innovation across VFX, quantum computing, and fusion technology, we also examine the city's growing tech ecosystem, its strengths, and the challenges of scaling without direct access to major funding centers. As AI continues to push the boundaries of creativity and accessibility, how can businesses and cultural institutions harness this technology to build deeper connections and unlock new opportunities? Tune in for an insightful conversation on the future of AI-powered innovation.

On March 8, 1963, the Baath party overthrew the government of Syria, and since then the Assad family has ruled the country—until last weekend, when the son of Hafez al-Assad, Bashar al-Assad, fled to Russia. The 60-year Baathist domination of Syria came to an end, deposed by a Sunni Islamist organization called Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS).   Whereas many current conversations are, appropriately, focused on the military and political revolution that Syrians are now living through, the ideological revolution deserves equal consideration. There is no way of knowing how long the current government in Syria, or the Syrian state as we know it, will endure. We don't know if the new regime will be just and serve its people well, or whether it will be corrupt and tyrannical. We don't know how Syria will relate to the West, to America, or to Israel. But by recovering the ideological genealogy of Baathism, from which Syria's present rulers fought to free their country, we can begin to try to understand Arab politics the way that Arab intellectuals do. To that end, Mosaic's editor Jonathan Silver is joined by Hussein Aboubakr Mansour, a writer, student of the modern Middle East, and senior fellow at the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs.
