Not quite an incel, not yet a Chad. The gymcel is a little-known, but hugely polarizing figure. Rather than swallowing the black pill and turning away from society (one where evil feminists govern man's ability to get laid), the gymcel takes matters into his own hands and get gains in pursuit of the ultimate Chad-bod. After all, everyone struggles with body image from time to time. So why do women hate him? Or, better yet, why do incels hate him? Hannah and Maia discuss the gymcel and his peculiar role in the ever-expanding Manosphere, giving you a thorough breakdown of all the incel terminology we're sure you've been dying to learn ("looksmaxxing"... "manlets"... "fapstinence"...). Is a figure associated with the worst subsects of the internet worthy of our sympathy? Could the gymcel be more benign than he seems?

On the 28th of October, 2021, Facebook announced The Future…aka, a corporate rebrand. By changing the name of their parent company to Meta, they set out a vision for a new internet. Here, you can meet your colleagues in a virtual meeting room, and/or fence with Mark Zuckerberg. It's all in a day's browsing.... In this final episode of Series 1, comedian Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani ask: 'what exactly *is* the metaverse?' After all, it's Meta's world, we're just living in it.

For as long as the internet has existed, there has been internet porn. From ‘tube' sites to cam girls, to OnlyFans, X-rated material is as synonymous with life online as taking selfies and “getting cancelled”. In this episode, comedian Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani reflect on why exactly teenage Hussein was so keen to help his parents sort out the magazines in their shop, find out who exactly owns all the internet porn, and talk with sex worker, writer and activist Lydia Caradonna about how platforms can be less evil.

From the first person to ever teletext herself some eggs in 1984, it's never been easier to click and collect anything your heart desires from that great big convenience store in the cloud. But is the ability to buy a complete DVD disk set of Sex And The City at 4am from anywhere in the world necessarily a good thing? Let's find out! From online marketplaces to a new breed of pastel-pink loan sharks, in this episode comedian Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani get to the bottom of what online spending really costs. Human Error is a Daddy's SuperYacht production for BBC Sounds.

The Flintstones sold us a vision for the ultimate human powered eco-vehicle, while The Jetsons promised us personal flying saucers, but when it comes to cars and technology: where have we actually parked? In this episode, comedian Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani review the marketing copy on Tesla's website, consider the ethics of testing the Google Waymo, ask what it means to be a Top Gear dad these days, and pitch their ideas for Pixar's 'Cars 4'. Human Error is a Daddy's SuperYacht production for BBC Sounds.

The history of music sharing has more twists and turns than a Richard Linklater film, following our protagonist (music) from sunrise (CDs) to sunset (Spotify). Torrenting might have heralded the end of physical media, but is the music industry's shift from illegal file swapping to legal streaming really the answer musicians have been waiting for? In this episode, comedian Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani speak with musician and producer J Appiah about what impact technology has had on music, and Olga and Hussein reminisce about the glory days of buying a bootleg DVD in a Moscow metro station. Human Error is a Daddy's SuperYacht production for BBC Sounds.

Once upon a time, we were sold the dream that cloud computing, e-readers and space travel might save us from our imminent climate crisis. Turns out, no. Far from being the earth's heroes, tech might be driving us closer to environmental apocalypse faster than ever before. It's bleak stuff, sure, but there are jokes as well. In this episode, comedian Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani speak to comedian and environmental economist Dr Matt Winning, author of ‘Hot Mess: What On Earth Can We Do About Climate Change?' and finally get to the bottom of what's going on in the Richard Linklater extended universe. Human Error is a Daddy's SuperYacht production for BBC Sounds.

Space: the final frontier, or just a billionaire's playground? As Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk compete to see who can be the first to save humanity (starting with the rich), we're asking - what exactly is the correlation between divorce rates and wanting to launch a rocket into the sky? In this episode, comedian Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani ask how the space race can be both a cause of and the solution to climate change, interrogate which surprising celebrity Hussein would invite onto his shuttle, and speak to Fred Scharmen, author of ‘Space Forces: A Critical History of Life in Outer Space' about the past and future of space exploration.

Is your pain causing you to purchase? In a world where medical establishments are woefully underprepared to deal with anyone who isn't a very average man, more people than ever are turning to femtech, a multi-billion sector providing an ever-expanding selection of (expensive) wifi-enabled breast pumps and (intrusive) glittery gold period trackers. Join comedian and computer scientist Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani as they ask just how many details about your sex life you really need to hand over to any corporation, give your favourite products a femtech rebrand, and speak with software engineer and former startup founder Wendy Liu, author of ‘Abolish Silicon Valley: How to Liberate Technology from Capitalism', about the demise of the girlboss. Human Error is a Daddy's SuperYacht production for BBC Sounds.

Ahhh the heady days of the personal website, where 12-year-old Hussein wiled away the hours listing his favourite Pokemon for an audience of none. Now, it's all just tweeting, ‘gramming and, if you're an aunt over the age of 40, spreading terrifying conspiracy theories on Facebook. Join comedian Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani as they consider how and how the internet went from being a place of imagination, possibility and endless flash games, to being owned by a few, all-powerful tech giants. Human Error is a Daddy's SuperYacht production for BBC Sounds.

Gone are the days when anyone can say anyone about anything…actually, scratch that: misinformation is rife, and social media has arguably facilitated a golden age of ‘fake news' to rival Octavian defeated Mark Anthony in 30BC (at last, we're taking down the Roman Empire). Join comedian Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani as they fact check Olga's tweets, start a flame war with graphic designers and ask: why do so many virgins work at Time Magazine? Human Error is a Daddy's SuperYacht production for BBC Sounds.

Are NFTs - Non-Fungible Tokens - the frontier of the modern art world, or just another place for tech bros to put their fake money?

Romance scams are on the rise, as more people than ever look to the internet for love. From an ex-military hottie who is allergic to video chat, to a small conglomerate of professional defrauders that you can call bae, comedian Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani run through the red flags that might let you know he's *just not that into (refunding) you*. This episode features Catfish UK's Oobah Butler on what to do if you think you're being romance scammed, a surprisingly saucy choose-your-own-adventure written by Hussein, and a stunning confession about Slobodan Milošević.

From Huel to SquarEat, the culinary landscape has never been more thrilling for people who like their meals compact, efficient and perfectly nutritionally balanced. For the rest of us…not so much. Join comedian and computer scientist Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani as they delve into failed innovations in food technology, invent the perfect food start-up, and get to the bottom of what exactly counts as soup.

This week, Nate speaks with Hussein Kesvani, a notable serious journalist and cohost of Trashfuture and 10,000 Posts podcasts, about a recent phenomenon in Britain: the decision to evacuate a bunch of dogs and cats from Afghanistan while leaving behind all the Afghan staff from the charity involved. We also touch on Taliban super-poster accounts and the ways Global North countries try and demonize refugees at every juncture. For this week's bonus, we've decided to review the 2016 Coast Guard film about a guy who does his job. It's called THE FINEST HOURS and Chris Pine is horribly miscast (he's nowhere near ugly enough). To discuss it, the authenticity of its portrayal, and a lot of digressions about boats, Francis speaks with Carey Shockey (@shocks), our resident coastie and water expert.

Feel like you've seen this episode before? Once the undisputed kings of the video rental market, the demise of Blockbuster heralded the start of the age of streaming giants: from Netflix to Disney+, and even Quibi (RIP). Now we can watch whatever we want, wherever we are...without a single teenager telling us that the VHS of Face/Off is "essential viewing". Join comedian and computer scientist Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani as they consider why ‘data driven content' might not be such a wild idea, and investigate how tech-backed content platforms are using their vast supply of big data about our viewing habits to produce dozens of films with ‘love' in the title. Can they be stopped on their endless quest to create the most algorithmically perfect show in existence? Perhaps, but only once we've all finished watching The Office for the 100th time this year.

Do you even lift, bro? From 30 Days of Yoga With Adriene, to the #ChloeTing Summer Shred Challenge AND completing a hundred rides with Cody Rigsby on Peloton…frankly it's a miracle you've got time to do anything else. In this episode, comedian and computer scientist Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani chart the rise of the fitfluencer - the online personal trainers selling us (and each other) the dream of a perfect body, a cute dog and a million-dollar business empire, for only the price of a small monthly subscription fee. How is the perfect gym body like a bowl of fine vegetarian chilli? You'll have to listen to find out! Human Error is a Daddy's SuperYacht production for BBC Sounds.

The global pandemic has gone digital, and we're now in the midst of a national ‘pingdemic'. Who could have predicted that returning to work, school, silent discos and kissing competitions would result in a rise in exposure to the real virus...by which we obviously mean “other people”? In this episode, comedian and computer scientist Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani look at who built the NHS COVID-19 app, brainstorm other potential uses for the technology behind it, and consider how it really compares to the incredibly functional and successful Matt Hancock app. Human Error is a Daddy's SuperYacht production for BBC Sounds.

Meet Chip Girl, a Tik Tok influencer who can open doors using a microchip embedded in her hand. Sure, it's literally just a key (first invented around 6000 years ago) but that doesn't mean it's not great content! Join comedian and computer scientist Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani in this first episode of their brand new technology podcast Human Error, as they get under the skin of biohacking. From Elon Musk to some guy in his bedroom with too much time on his hands, biohacking is the hot new trend that everyone who isn't incredibly squeamish is getting into. And think of the possibilities! Today we're opening doors, but tomorrow…we could be opening different doors. It really makes you think. Human Error is a Daddy's SuperYacht production for BBC Sounds.

Comedian Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani introduce their new weekly comedy/technology podcast. A Daddy's SuperYacht Production for BBC Sounds.

GB News is suffering a full scale implosion: technical disasters were followed by a near total collapse in its audience, the sudden absence of founder Andrew Neil, the resignation of senior figures, and then a public repudiation of a presenter who took the knee and his removal from air at the behest of angry viewers - on a TV station which claimed to be founded to oppose 'cancel culture' and the censorious mob.What does this tell us about the right? Well, that they are massive hypocrites, obviously, but joining me are Hussein Kesvani and Zoe Williams to dissect that in detail.Please like, subscribe - and help us take on the right wing media here: https://www.patreon.com/owenjones84Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast.

We discuss the end of the Quilliam Foundation/Quilliam and its dodgy funding and founders, predominantly our favourite special boy, Maajid Nawaz, as well as looking at how Tommy Robinson fits into all of this. We also discuss the reorganisation of the state-surveillance-trojan horse PREVENT strategy and the carceralism it props up, in conjunction with the very British culture of curtain-twitching suspicion and its manifestation in the othering of the South Asian & Middle Eastern diaspora. /// SHOW NOTES /// /// CREDITS /// Hosts: Aarjan /// Nikita Guest: Hussein Kesvani Production: Sarah Sahim Music: Cardio /// TMSV - Hyperfocus

Hussein also describes the crisis in faith he experienced in his late teens that briefly led to him becoming an atheist. Topics of discussion also include Muslim journalists seeking careers in the mainstream and non-Muslim media, the UK's countering-violent extremism (CVE) apparatus, and deciding to withdraw from the Bradford Literature Festival in July this year.

Host Tawseef Khan speaks with Hussein Kesvani, journalist, author, and multimedia producer, about struggling with faith and being a Muslim on the internet.

Episode 4 will be aired on Tuesday 9th March.

Journalist Hussein Kesvani joined us for an in-depth discussion on his Book : Follow me Akhi - The Online World of British Muslims Our chat covers Hussein's Book and examination of Digital Spaces for UK Muslims, his thoughts on how the US/UK Left misunderstands Islam, and how the state violence Muslims face is a threat to all those opposing Capitalism and White Supremacy.

Today I'm joined by Hussein Kesvani, editor, author, podcaster, and sandwich sommelier. You may know him for his exploits over at Trashfuture, where he comments on (among other things) life in Britain, political dunderheads and the information hellscape we haven't fully realized we're in. We cover a LOT of ground while trying to make sense of everything, and we don't quite get there. It sure as hell was fun, though. Be sure to listen to him over at Trashfuture, as well as his other podcast, 10 Thousand Posts. His other musings can be found over on his Twitters. Song used for this episode is Eple, by Röyksopp This podcast is powered by ZenCast.fm

There’s way too much news and revolution going on at the moment, so we called in Hussein Kesvani (@Hkesvani) to help us out. Rowling’s TERF tirade, swimming statues, heroic traffic lights, and Very British Culture Wars. You want it, we got it! Also we discuss clipboards at sexparties, and finish with a delightful dessert of statue-only Comment or Comment or Commentariat. Recorded before the Churchill piss protests.  Mermaids' open letter to JK Rowling: https://mermaidsuk.org.uk/news/dear-jk-rowling/Podcrew: Very Special Guest Hussein Kesvani (@Hkesvani)Natalie, wisely not on TwitterElijah (@KlezmerRouge) Rob (CountRthe) 

They're blackmailing each other and punching horses. The euroskeptic movement and its central party, UKIP, has continued to shamble forward as it falls apart in the most bizarre and pathetic ways possible. We're joined by Trashfuture's Riley Quinn, Alice Caldwell-Kelly, Milo Edwards, & Hussein Kesvani. In the other corner, submitted to our cold scrutiny, stands quite a menagerie: Tommy Robinson. Nigel Farrage. Paul Joseph Watson. Count Dankula. Sargon of Akkad. Dick Braine. All somehow connected through the UKIP party. This episode also includes a Jake story (UKIP 6 SIEGE) which adds Hussein Kesvani to the lot.

This week Salim is once again joined by Husam as they broach the topic of modest fashion in their conversation with Hafsa Lodi. Hafsa's book 'Modesty: A Fashion Paradox' explores the growing industry that is modest fashion, getting insights from some of the biggest players. This week's podcast extends the conversation, as we tackle the divorce of Islam from modest fashion, watching how the trends shift over time. We also look at the role visibly Muslim fashion bloggers play in our communities, how their platform inevitably makes them role models, and whether they should be placed on that pedestal. The discussion then moves to hijab and modesty, and women's choice around it, as the conversation comes to an end. -- If you'd like to help support us here at TMV, visit https://themuslimvibe.com/support Join our FaceBook group to continue the conversation: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tmvpodcast/?ref=share  Hafsa's book can be found on Kindle and Amazon at https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1911107267/ To listen to the podcast with Hussein Kesvani, visit https://anchor.fm/themuslimvibe/episodes/Ep-83---Psychedelic-drugs--trolls-and-internet-subcultures-ft--Hussein-Kesvani-ebhfs6 --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/themuslimvibe/message

Worshippers are gathering for a church service led by Pastor D.J Soto in Virginia in the USA. Many of them are at home or even in other countries. For DJ, this church is important for worshippers unable to attend a physical church, such as the disabled, the ostracised and the persecuted. VR technology is also teaching future generations about religious tolerance. Every year Jews and Holocaust survivors from across the world make a pilgrimage to Auschwitz in Poland. Alongside them is Karen Jungblut, director of research and documentation, from the Shoah Foundation, based at the University of Southern California, its mission to preserve the first-person accounts of 50,000 Holocaust survivors and other witnesses began with videotape. Now it's using 360 filming to capture the testimony of survivors in the landscape where it happened. Worship is often about the icons of your faith – and in Leicester in the UK we meet Sikh students as they encounter some of their religion’s most important artefacts for the first time – thanks to a VR headset, as a way of engaging young Sikhs and teaching non-Sikhs about the religion. But can immersing yourself get too, well, real? Hussein Kesvani, a Shi’a Muslim journalist who writes about the online experience of British Muslims, joins us to experience a virtual reality app that allows the user to relive the battle of Karbala, an instrumental moment in the Muslim faith. Is this visualisation a step too far? Presented by Sophia Smith-Galer Produced by Julia Paul

This week our host Salim is joined by Naed, our chief intern, as they speak to Hussein Kesvani, author of Follow Me Akhi. His book broaches the topics of how Islam has been affected by the Internet and the communities formed there, and they explore these topics further as the conversation progresses. We hear about some of Hussein's topics that didn't quite make it into the book, from psychedelic drugs to sectarianism. The discussion then winds to a close with a commentary on the evolution of the Internet's subcultures over time. -- Purchase  Hussein's book on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Follow-Me-Akhi-British-Muslims/dp/1787381250  Join our Facebook group to continue the conversation: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tmvpodcast/?ref=share --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/themuslimvibe/message

Journalist Hussein Kesvani writes a lot about the internet, and about masculinity, and about the intersection of the two. He recently interviewed people about apologies in a piece for The Huffington Post, focusing on men and their understanding of an apology and if many men have been taught how to give one. He was inspired after Aziz Ansari's attempt at one with his recent Netflix show ‘Right Now', which is when we at The Gender Knot also delved into this same question a few weeks ago.He joins us to explore this further, and we also re-visit Eve Ensler's book ‘The Apology' during our conversation.

Last year in the UK the Home Office recorded a 40 per cent increase in religious hate crimes – of which more than half were directed at Muslims. What does Islamophobia mean now for the people on the receiving end of it? And given the extensive media coverage of Islam this century, why has so little been learned? Andrew Mueller is joined by Salma El-Wardany, Hussein Kesvani and Asma Uddin.

In the latest episode Ben speaks to Hussein Kesvani about the impact of the internet on British Muslim society.  What does it mean to be Muslim in Britain today? If the media is anything to go by, it has something to do with mosques, community leaders, whether you wear a veil, and your views on religious extremists. But as all our lives become increasingly entwined with our online presence, British Islam has evolved into a multidimensional cultural identity that goes well beyond the confines of the mosque.  Ben discusses this transition with author and journalist Hussein Kesvani, whose latest book Follow Me, Akhi reveals how a new generation of young Muslims who have grown up with the internet are using social media to determine their religious identity on their own terms.  Find the book: Follow Me, Akhi: The Online World of British Muslims Credits: Speaker: Hussein Kesvani Host: Ben Horton Editor: Ben Horton Sound Editor: Jamie Reed Recorded and produced at Chatham House, London

Richard Curtis talks to John Wilson about The Beatles, the rom-com and time itself. He's written Yesterday, a musical fantasy comedy directed by Danny Boyle in which a musician, after an accident, finds himself in another world. Here he is the only person who remembers The Beatles, a fact he turns to his advantage. He takes the credit and becomes famous for writing and performing their songs. Himesh Patel stars as the singer and Lily James, Kate McKinnon, and Ed Sheeran also appear. Several writers and commentators have now withdrawn from the Bradford Literature Festival because of the funding of a pre-festival programme by Building a Stronger Britain Together, a Home Office counter extremism programme. Front Row hears from one of them, Hussein Kesvani, author of Follow Me, Akhi : the Online World of British Muslims, and discusses the reasons for the withdrawals. It's the summer solstice and Radio 4 has been celebrating with new poems throughout the day. In Front Row Mona Arshi reads her specially written midsummer song. She talks, too, about her new collection, Dear Big Gods, in which she explores both the intimacies of ordinariness and the collective experience of myth. Presenter: John Wilson Producer: Julian May

Hussein Kesvani is a journalist, editor and producer based in London. He is the Europe editor of MEL Magazine, has written for BuzzFeed, Vice, The Guardian, the New Statesman and The Spectator, and is the author of 'Follow Me, Akhi: The Online World of British Muslims,' available from Hurst Publishers. That book is now available for purchase here: https://www.hurstpublishers.com/book/follow-me-akhi/ In this episode, he discusses his childhood as one of the only Muslim children in his school in Kent, his parents' hidden histories and their expulsion from Uganda in the 1970s, his trajectory from Islam to atheism and back again, and why his online presence is a bit surreal.

Diego Maradona was a footballer of unrivalled talent, but off the pitch his story is one of despair and betrayal. Chris King, the editor of a feature documentary on the player, tells Kirsty Wark that the film reveals the life of this flawed icon through his own words and personal archive. Hussein Kesvani also aims to tell a story that goes beyond the usual headlines, exploring the unexpected online worlds of British Muslims. He reveals a new generation of young media-savvy Muslims creating their own diverse cultural identities online. More secrets are unveiled in Shahidha Bari’s book, Dressed, which looks at the hidden power of clothes in our culture and daily lives. She explores the link between what we wear and who we are. The latest exhibition at the British Museum offers visitors the chance to enter a graphic world where art and storytelling collide in its display of Japanese manga. The curator Nicole Rousmaniere argues that manga has long been a way to tell the stories of those whose history is not recorded. Correction: the programme wrongly states that Adolf Eichmann’s trial took place at Nuremberg. He was tried in Jerusalem in 1961. Producer: Katy Hickman

A couple of years ago, Hussein Kesvani started receiving anti-Islam messages from a Twitter account called True Brit. A few months later, he travelled to meet the man behind the account. Jordan Erica Webber chats to him about what that was like, as well as his new book Follow Me, Akhi, which looks at how the newest generation of British Muslims are growing up in the digital age..

Despite a popular perception that journalism is an industry in decline, The National Council for the Training of Journalists has published research that claims the number of people calling themselves journalists has actually increased since 2012. So where are they working? Also in the show, the BBC has launched Sounds, a new app that it hopes will entice more younger people to listen to the BBC, and The Overtake, a news website "from outside the middle-class media bubble". Amol Rajan is joined by Joanne Butcher, NCTJ chief executive, Bob Shennan, BBC Director of Radio and Music, Robyn Vinter, editor of The Overtake, and Hussein Kesvani, journalist and podcaster.

Late last year, I had the chance to sit down to talk to Hussein Kesvani about his work as a Muslim journalist.  A lot happened between then and now that led to me not publishing this podcast episode soon after I recorded it.  I figure now's as good a time as any. Hussein Kesvani is the UK/Europe editor for Mel Magazine, a publication ostensibly about men and masculinity (though I would argue it's perpetuating modern degeneracy and promoting men being Soyboys.) This is most certainly a black mark against Hussein, who is otherwise a fine fellow and an accomplished, non-hacky journalist.  He's also written for Buzzfeed, Vice, The Independent, The Guardian, The New Statesman, The Shortlist, and Refinery29.  He's a co-host of the No Country For Brown Men Podcast and also the Trash Future podcast. Here's what we talked about during our short chat: The relationship between a writer and his editor, and why journalists publish pieces that can seem "editorialized" [4:55] What journalists and copywriters have in common when writing about "subjects" and clients [8:42] The challenge of writing on topics involving Muslims in a non-Muslim publication [13:05] How BAME (Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic) people can get their foot in the door of fast-changing world of modern journalism [17:20] Where does Hussein place crowd-funded, independent citizen journalists like Mike Cernovich, Tim Pool, and Lauren Southern in the ecosystem of journalism as a whole [23:58] How the definition of "journalism" has changed in recent years [27:18] On the journalistic value of what many citizen journalists think passes for journalism [30:09] Do mainstream media publications have a responsibility to be impartial and objective? [35:26] How can Muslim men get their start in journalism? Hussein gives us practical advice. (Hint: copywriting is an important skill) [39:56]

Are we seeing the normalisation of fascism? There's a disturbing pattern of politicians making extreme statements, columnists writing apologia for racism, and far-right figures taking to the airwaves for soft interviews with sycophantic journalists.On the British Dream this week, Simon Childs chats to Hussein Kesvani about what to make of this new reality, and look at how far-right ideology related to mainstream conservatism and gullible journalism.

Benjamin Ramm is a writer, broadcaster and journalist who has produced work for the BBC, The New York Times and OpenDemocracy. He also used to edit 'The Liberal' magazine. In this episode, Elizabeth talks to Benjamin about his identity as a 'non-religious, atheist Jew' who loves to go to Russian Orthodox mass, his religious and spiritual upbringing, and why he thinks poetry might provide a pathway for some who don't identify as religious, but believe in the value of faith. They also speak about the crisis and challenges of contemporary liberalism, and how his vision of a liberal future differs from that of previous guest of the show, Tim Farron. 'The Sacred' is supported by Theos Think Tank, the UK's leading religion and society think tank. It is hosted by Theos' director Elizabeth Oldfield, and produced by Hussein Kesvani and No Country Media.

Welcome to The Sacred, a new podcast about the things we cherish, hold dear, and how they bring us together. In this episode, Elizabeth speaks to former Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron, who led the party until 2017, when he stepped down after claiming he could not be a committed political leader and a committed Christian. This came after a controversial interview in which he was grilled on his position on same-sex relations. 7 months on, Tim reflects back on that moment, as well as British politics as a whole. He talks about the crisis of liberalism, how 'identity politics' can prevent the free exchange of ideas in the public space, and how Christians wanting to enter politics should be willing to exert grace, and embrace humility, if they wish to make a real change. You can listen, watch and read Tim Farron's Theos annual lecture here: https://www.theosthinktank.co.uk/events/2017/11/28/tim-farron-what-kind-of-liberal-society-do-we-want The Sacred is produced in association with Theos think tank, the leading religion and society think tank in the UK. The show is produced by Hussein Kesvani and No Country Media.

In the second episode of The Sacred, Elizabeth talks to comedian, writer and founder of the Sunday Assembly, Pippa Evans. Pippa is a regular on BBC radio 4 and has written and presented series for other broadcasters and networks. She also helped found the Sunday Assembly, which had been dubbed the "atheist church" on its inception. The organisation has grown to become a global movement for people who value faith and spirituality, in spite of not identifying as 'religious'. This episode also features an interview with Theos researcher Simon Perfect, on his project about free speech and university campuses. The Sacred is a podcast about the things we cherish and hold dear to us. It is supported by Theos, the religion and society think tank, and is produced by Hussein Kesvani and No Country media.

Jonathan Rowson is a Scottish Chess grandmaster, an author, and the director of Perspectiva, an organisation that aims to "research the relationship between complex global challenges and the inner lives of human beings and highlight why this matters in society". In the first episode of The Sacred, hosted by Elizabeth Oldfield, Jonathan talks about his religious and spiritual past, how chess helped him make sense of himself, and how talking to people of faith made him reevaluate his own. We also catch up with Theos' head of research, Nick Spencer, on his new book "The Political Samaritan". He talks about how the parable has been hijacked by politicians from all spheres of the conversation, and how this tale has helped shape contemporary British politics. The Sacred is a podcast about the things we cherish and hold dear to us. It is supported by Theos, the UK's leading religion and society think tank. The Sacred is produced by Hussein Kesvani and No Country Media.

This podcast is interested in the state of our public conversations, the way we might do them better and the role the things that we hold sacred but don't always know how to talk about might play. Each episode will feature an in depth interview with writers, thinkers, activists, comedians, community leaders and others, in which we discuss the things we hold dear, and to examine the things that hold us together- not just as individuals, but as a society. You can follow Elizabeth at @TheosElizabeth and Theos at @Theosthinktank. 'The Sacred' is produced by Hussein Kesvani and No Country Media. You can follow Hussein at @HKesvani

Hussein Kesvani and Baroness Shaista Ahmad Sheehan joins host Josh Lowe to discuss the rise of Islamophobia in the U.S. and Europe and how we can combat it? On Saturday, Imam Maulama Akonjee and his assistant Thara Uddin were shot and killed as they walked through Queens, New York, after prayers. The incident, at the time of recording, was not formally classified as a "hate crime," and many in New York's Muslim community have argued strongly that it should be, it highlights the growing threat to Muslims living amid rising Islamaphobia in the United States. In Europe, Muslims are being subjected to mounting Islamophobia, particularly in the wake of a spate of terrorist attacks carried out by people allied with the Islamic State (ISIS). Hussein Kesvani is a consultant at Theos, a religion and public affairs think tank, and Baroness Shaista Ahmad Sheehan is a Liberal Democrat Member of the House of Lords.
