There's a voting bloc large enough to decide 126 congressional races and most of it isn't showing up. In this episode, Saadia Khan breaks down data on naturalized citizens, immigrant voter turnout, and civic participation in America, and makes the case that the ballot is one of the most powerful tools immigrants have but aren't using. From New York's 2026 primary to the $383 billion immigrants pay in taxes every year, this is an unfiltered look at belonging, power, and why "be grateful you were let in" was never the deal.

What does it really mean to belong, and what happens when belonging feels like betrayal? Beatriz Nour has lived this question. Born in France, raised between Brazil and Egypt, and based in Dubai for nearly a decade, she's the creator of the podcast InBetweenish and someone who knows firsthand what it costs to reject your heritage, and what it takes to slowly find your way back to it. In this conversation, Beatriz and Saadia Khan go deep on the kind of identity work that doesn't show up on a visa application: the grief of cultural rejection, the negotiation of belonging across languages and life stages, and why staying "in betweenish" isn't indecision, it might be the most honest thing you can do. "I'm most comfortable being inbetweenish, not choosing sides, not owing anyone a full allegiance to one identity." This episode is a rerun brought back because it's exactly the kind of conversation Immigrant Heritage Month was made for. If it's your first time, welcome. If you've heard it before, you'll catch something new.

Rabbi Saadia Gaon's sefer Emunot V'Deot (Book of Beliefs and Opinions) innovated the genre of Jewish philosophy. Long before Rabbi Yehuda HaLevi and the Rambam, R. Saadia paved the road for viewing Jewish principles through a lens of classic Greek philosophy, the science of his time, and is justifiably where Jewish philosophy begins. Join Rabbi Daniel Korobkin as he explores this important, monumental work, tracing the differences in approach between R. Saadia and those who came after him.For the original course page please visit https://webyeshiva.org/course/emunot-vdeot-the-first-book-of-jewish-philosophy/
Saadia Khan sits down with Raj Goyle, whose parents came from India with a few dollars and a medical degree. His mom was the only female OB in Wichita shut out by the establishment, so she built her own referral network with Filipino and Vietnamese immigrant doctors. Raj took a different path: civil rights lawyer, ACLU after 9/11, state legislator, tech founder. Now he's in New York challenging a 20-year incumbent for State Comptroller. And he's got receipts: the current office is spending $1 billion in Wall Street fees that aren't growing your pension. It's proactively buying Palantir stock with your money. And there's a utility regulator in Albany cooking the books on your electric bill that nobody will touch. Oh, and his 83-year-old mother, naturalized for nearly 50 years, is scared she'll be deported. This is the race. Hit play.

His Instagram bio says it all: "Just a dude working on political stuff." Charlie Goldensohn grew up in San Francisco's Mission District with a Marxist activist father and a Planned Parenthood director for a mother. He went on to work for Senator Dianne Feinstein, became Dr. Jill Biden's digital director, served in the White House, and worked on the Kamala Harris 2024 campaign. Then Democrats lost, and something in him snapped. He pointed a camera at himself, started walking, and started talking. Within four months, 200,000 followers. Today, over 359,000. In this episode, Saadia Khan sits down with Charlie for an unfiltered conversation about politics, identity, and why the Democratic Party has completely lost the plot. They get into: Why calling himself "just a dude" is actually the whole strategy Growing up in a radically political household — and hating it, until he didn't The moral calculus of working for Dianne Feinstein as a Bernie Sanders progressive Why he said no to Biden, yes to Kamala, and what that cost him Harm reduction politics — and whether it's ever enough What Democrats got wrong about Joe Rogan, Zohran Mamdani, and coalition-building Why he's targeting the men Democrats are losing and how he's actually reaching them Democracy is an endless fight, and what the Trump era cracked open for all of us This one's for anyone who's felt too progressive for the Democrats and too practical for purity politics.

On the eve of Eid ul-Adha, host Saadia Khan reflects on the San Diego mosque shooting that killed three men during prayer — and the Instagram comment calling Islam a "bloody demonic cult" that followed. In this raw narration episode, Saadia connects the dots between normalized anti-Muslim rhetoric, political silence, and the violence it enables. From her daughter being called "queen of Taliban" in sixth grade to being interrogated in an ER while in pain, she shares what it actually costs to be Muslim in America — and why, despite all of it, Muslims will still show up for Eid tomorrow. A must-listen for anyone who has scrolled past hate and called it someone else's problem. Join us in creating new intellectual engagement for our audience.

En este episodio me entrevisto a mí mismo, y mientras lo hacía, no sabía si eso algún día se publicaría o no. Empiezo hablando de un momento de cansancio, después del Wellness Business Lab, de la escritura de mi tesis doctoral, de Pequeñas memorias, mi nuevo libro, y de la entrada cada vez más fuerte de la inteligencia artificial en mi forma de trabajar, pensar y crear. Pero poco a poco la conversación se va hacia otro lugar: la ansiedad por producir, el miedo a no estar haciendo suficiente, la necesidad de mostrar siempre una versión editada de uno mismo y la incomodidad de aceptar que no sé. Este episodio no intenta cerrar una idea ni convertir la vulnerabilidad en mensaje. Es más bien una conversación en proceso, donde aparecen el cuerpo, el sistema nervioso, la duda, el miedo y también una posibilidad simple: no resolverlo todo, observarlo y seguir bailando.Como siempre, tus comentarios son muy valiosos para mí. Gracias por compartir y co-crear conmigo mejores preguntas. Con cariño,Victor____Más contenido en:
Your favorite museum might be built on stolen goods. Nicole Dowd works inside the Smithsonian, and she's not here to defend it. Saadia Khan sits down with Nicole to break it all down. As Head of Public Programs at the National Museum of Asian Art, she's sitting with the uncomfortable truth: Western museums have a colonial problem, and a fresh coat of "inclusivity" paint won't fix it. We get into repatriation, who really has access to art, the model minority myth, and what it means to be Korean, adopted, and suddenly surrounded by Korean treasures every day at work. This is the museum conversation nobody wants to have and exactly why we're having it.

What does it look like when someone walks away from a prestigious career, on principle, and comes back fighting? Chuck Park did exactly that. A son of Korean immigrants who sold T-shirts on Canal Street, he rose to become a U.S. diplomat, then resigned in 2019 after the El Paso mass shooting and published his letter in The Washington Post. Now he's running a 100% grassroots campaign for Congress in New York's 6th District — Queens against a seven-term incumbent. No corporate PACs. No AIPAC money. No focus-grouped talking points. In this conversation, Saadia sits down with Chuck Park to talk about what it means to run as a true outsider: abolishing ICE (and why that's not the same as open borders), calling Gaza a genocide out loud, the Working Families Party's closed-door betrayal, and why dumplings might be the most radical political tool in Queens right now. They also get into the MSG myth, the difference between progressivism and leftism, and what Chuck says he'll do if he loses, spoiler: deep clean the bathroom first. If you've been waiting for a politician who sounds like an actual human being, this one's for you.

Immigrant life in New York City looks glamorous from the outside, but what happens when you arrive in January with snow up to your knees, no work permit, and no roadmap for who you're supposed to become? In this episode, host Saadia sits down with Laura Peruchi, a Brazilian journalist, content creator, podcaster, and one of New York City's most trusted voices for immigrants navigating life in a new country. Laura is the host of Transplants, a podcast about women thriving in new roots abroad, and the writer behind The Tiny Apple, a newsletter about New York life told with radical honesty. Laura and Saadia get into the raw, unfiltered parts of immigrant life that don't make it onto Instagram: What it really feels like to go from financially independent to completely dependent on a dependent visa, and why Laura didn't talk about it until she got her green card The identity shift of switching your content from Portuguese to English, and how language changes your personality Why Laura started a podcast specifically for immigrant women, and why she says "men already have enough spotlight.” The in-between world of being a transplant: too Brazilian for America, too Americanized for Brazil Code-switching, insecurity, online hate, and the quiet courage of building something from scratch in a city that doesn't owe you anything Why is she learning French as a third language, just because she wanted to Community-building in East Harlem, and why a WhatsApp group about stolen packages became her unexpected found family Laura also opens up about something rarely discussed: the emotional weight immigrant spouses carry when they feel they "should be grateful" and how that guilt silently erodes self-worth and belonging. Whether you're a first-generation immigrant, a partner who followed someone to a new country, or simply someone who has ever felt like an outsider in a place you chose to call home, this conversation will feel like a long exhale.

When we first sat down with Zainab Hasnain — DJ, producer, and writer FKA ZEEMUFFIN — back in 2022, she was already doing something remarkable: carving out space as a Pakistani immigrant woman in one of the most male-dominated creative industries in New York City. We're re-releasing this conversation now because a lot has changed since then, and we think it's worth revisiting. Since this episode was recorded, Zainab has played Boiler Room, Governors Ball, and Glastonbury. She opened for Palestinian-Chilean artist Elyanna across her sold-out North American Tour. She's been featured in the New York Times and appeared in the Gap's Summer Campaign. Original music is on the way. But this conversation is about how she got here — and it's just as compelling now as it was then. We talk about growing up between Lahore and Long Island, learning the viola, falling in love with punk and hip hop, and eventually trading a career in finance and tech for a pair of turntables. We get into what it means to be a Pakistani woman taking up space in DJ culture, the parallels between hip hop and immigrant identity, how gentrification threatens the authenticity of Black art forms, and why Zainab believes DJing is, at its core, an act of empathy. We also talk about food. Because on Immigrantly, we always talk about food. Join us in creating new intellectual engagement for our audience.

What does it feel like to leave your faith at the door, not because you're ashamed, but because you're exhausted? In this episode of Immigrantly, host Saadia Khan sits down with Salman Khan, a journalist, composer, and Executive Producer of More Muslim, a narrative podcast that tells Muslim stories from the inside out. Salman grew up Pakistani in Qatar, moved to New York in his late twenties, and found himself sneaking away to pray between classes — not because anyone told him he couldn't, but because the silence around him said enough. The conversation unpacks the exhaustion of being the only Muslim in the room, how colonialism built the "Muslim aggression" myth, why the mosque became a lifeline in New York in a way it never was back home, and what it costs to be the unofficial spokesperson for 1.8 billion people. This one is for anyone who has ever code-switched their way through an identity. Muslim or not. Join us in creating new intellectual engagement for our audience.

Click on Vilcek.org for more information What do you do with grief for something that never was? Helena de Groot spent years circling one of the most quietly radical questions a person can ask: whether or not to have a child. The result was Creation Myth — an 8-part audio memoir for CBC that became a Tribeca Festival Official Selection, landed on the New York Times Modern Love podcast, and earned praise from Death, Sex & Money to The New Yorker. In this conversation, Helena and Saadia go to the heart of it, not the podcast, but the ache underneath it. They talk about whose grief Helena was holding while making it, what people were willing to say on tape, and what she knows now that she wishes she'd known at the start. This episode is for anyone who has wanted, lost, chosen, or is still deciding. The grief rhymes, even when the stories don't match. Join us in creating new intellectual engagement for our audience.

What does it really mean to do good, and who gets to decide? Saadia sits down with Dr. Rhea Rahman, an anthropologist at Brooklyn College, CUNY, and the author of Racializing the Umma: Muslim Humanitarians Beyond Black, Brown, and White. After more than a decade embedded with Islamic Relief, the largest Muslim NGO in the West, Dr. Rahman asks the questions most of us avoid: when Muslim organizations fly across the world to help, whose definition of "help" are they using? The episode gets into: The "good Muslim" trap-how Islamic charities are pressured to depoliticize themselves to gain Western acceptance Racial hierarchies inside Muslim communities and why South Asian Muslims are often disconnected from Black Muslim struggles The savior mentality immigrants unknowingly inherit and the hard work of unlearning it A radical reframe of Zakat: it's not charity. It's returning what was never yours to begin with What abolitionist Muslims and mutual aid movements are building as an alternative Whether you work in a nonprofit, donate to Islamic causes, or have ever questioned whether your good intentions are actually good, this one will sit with you.

We love to romanticize food as a universal connector. But behind every plate is a story of power, privilege, and who gets to define what's "authentic." We're bringing this one back because it hits harder than ever. Chef, food activist, and Studio ATAO founder Jenny Dorsey joins Saadia Khan to expose the uncomfortable truths about race, class, colonialism, and the politics of food. From childhood shame to the myth of fine dining, this is a raw conversation about who controls the narrative and who gets left out. With SNAP cuts hitting millions, food insecurity rising, and the government eliminating the data we use to track hunger, this episode is more urgent in 2026 than when we first recorded it in June 2025 Join us in creating new intellectual engagement for our audience.

How do you let yourself celebrate Eid when the world feels like it's falling apart? In this solo episode, host Saadia Khan reflects on the guilt and tension that came up this Eid and what it means to hold joy and grief at the same time. She unpacks two traps most of us fall into (performing grief vs. total compartmentalization), and makes the case that the two aren't opposites. This one is for anyone who has ever felt guilty for having a good moment or felt torn between living their life and staying awake to the world.

Les principaux opposants politiques au président Saïed en prison, des défenseurs des droits, des avocats, des syndicalistes et des journalistes poursuivis en justice et souvent condamnés : Saadia Mosbah n'a pas échappé à cette règle qui prévaut en Tunisie. Rien ni personne ne doit contester les actes du pouvoir en place. Emprisonnée depuis près de deux ans pour des accusations de malversations financières, la présidente de l'association M'nemty (mon rêve) a été condamnée jeudi dernier à huit ans de prison et à une lourde amende. « Saadia Mosbah, 66 ans, avait été en première ligne, rappelle Le Monde Afrique, pour défendre les migrants en provenance d'Afrique subsaharienne, après un virulent discours en février 2023 du président tunisien, Kaïs Saïed, dans lequel il dénonçait l'arrivée de "hordes de migrants clandestins" et un complot "pour changer la composition démographique" du pays. (…) Ancienne hôtesse de l'air, elle-même noire de peau, elle avait été à l'origine de l'adoption en 2018 d'une loi pionnière pour le Maghreb contre les discriminations raciales. » À lire aussiEn Tunisie, la militante antiraciste Saadia Mosbah condamnée à huit ans de prison Pression accrue sur les ONG En Tunisie, silence prudent des médias… C'est dans la presse étrangère qu'on commente cette condamnation. Notamment chez le voisin algérien : « Sombres jours pour les libertés en Tunisie, s'exclame Le Matin d'Algérie. Saadia Mosbah vient d'être arbitrairement condamnée par une justice aux ordres. (…) Pour les observateurs tunisiens et internationaux, cette condamnation illustre une tendance inquiétante, pointe le quotidien algérien : une pression accrue sur les ONG et les militants antiracistes, en particulier ceux qui défendent les droits des migrants. Plusieurs organisations dénoncent la multiplication des poursuites judiciaires contre des acteurs de la société civile, qu'elles jugent motivées par des raisons politiques plutôt que pénales. L'affaire Saadia Mosbah reste un signal fort pour la société civile tunisienne, conclut Le Matin d'Algérie, et acte l'absence de liberté d'association et d'indépendance de la justice dans ce pays. » Le site Afrik.com s'insurge : « Que fait Saadia Mosbah dans les geôles de Kaïs Saïed ? (…) Oui, en 2026, reconnaître pleinement l'autre comme son semblable, comme un être humain titulaire de droits, au premier rang desquels figure le droit fondamental à la vie, peut vous être reproché pénalement (en Tunisie). Oui, en 2026, une femme, une mère, un être humain, est condamnée en Tunisie à huit ans d'emprisonnement pour avoir défendu le respect du droit à la vie de chacun. (…) La souveraineté de la Tunisie ne saurait être placée au-dessus des droits humains, affirme encore Afrik.com. Au contraire, elle doit garantir à chaque Tunisien et à chaque être humain se trouvant sur son territoire le respect du droit à la vie et la protection de ses droits fondamentaux. » Le Cameroun : « Une gérontocratie engluée dans l'immobilisme » À la Une également le Cameroun… Un pays verrouillé, constate Le Monde Afrique, avec cette longue analyse sur la situation politique du pays, cinq mois après la présidentielle et la réélection contestée de Paul Biya, 93 ans, à un huitième mandat. « Une gérontocratie engluée dans l'immobilisme », titre le journal. En effet, depuis octobre dernier, « aucun nouveau gouvernement n'a encore été formé, malgré les attentes d'ouverture et de pacification après la dernière crise électorale. Paul Biya a pourtant promis de s'y atteler. "Dans les prochains jours", disait-il, le 31 décembre dernier. Puis, à nouveau, le 10 février, la dernière fois que les Camerounais ont vu leur président (à la télévision) et entendu le son de sa voix usée. (…) Face à ce pouvoir granitique, l'opposition a rendu les armes, relève Le Monde Afrique. Issa Tchiroma, candidat malheureux à la présidentielle, jugeant sa vie menacée, a discrètement trouvé refuge au Nigeria, puis en Gambie. Impossible pour lui d'organiser la résistance loin de ses troupes. La société civile survit, sujette aux "intimidations et à la peur". C'est dans ce contexte, pointe encore Le Monde Afrique, que le pape Léon XIV se rendra dans le pays, du 15 au 18 avril, au milieu de sa tournée africaine. Une visite qui divise le camp de la contestation, entre ceux qui l'assimilent à un acte de légitimation d'un pouvoir usurpé et ceux qui espèrent que le pape abordera les sujets qui fâchent le pouvoir. »
What if reading the right book or watching the right film could transform how you see the world, the same way psychedelics do? In this episode, Saadia Khan sits down with Ramzi Fawaz, professor of English at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, queer theorist, comic book scholar, and host of 'Nerd from the Future'. Ramzi's upcoming book “How to Think Like a Multiverse” makes a bold argument: that the humanities' art, literature, and media can function as psychedelic therapy, cracking open the way we think, feel, and relate to one another. But this conversation goes far deeper than the classroom. Saadia and Ramzi unpack why young people are actually more self-aware than we give them credit for, what we get wrong about "woke" culture, how resentment can be a tool for healing (not just destruction), why identity is something you live — not own — and what it really means to stay in your lane as a form of activism. Ramzi also gets personal about navigating sexual hierarchies in gay male culture, growing up Lebanese American in Orange County, and how his own name carries the weight of culture, language, and love. This is one of those rare conversations that makes you want to rethink how you see yourself. Join us in creating new intellectual engagement for our audience.

Jonnie Park was born in Argentina to Korean parents, crossed the US-Mexico border undocumented at age three, carried by a mother with two toddlers and nothing but courage, and grew up in Koreatown, Los Angeles, caught between Korean, Latino, and Black American culture. He became one of the only Asian battle rappers in history to gain mainstream notoriety, starred in Run DMC, appeared in Awkafina is Nora from Queens, voiced a character in Raya and the Last Dragon, and now he's written a memoir, Spit: A Life in Battles, which drops on April 14th. In this episode, Jonnie and Sadia get into what it actually felt like to step into a battle rap circle surrounded by hundreds of people, how hip hop taught him to be unapologetically Asian, the complicated relationship with his father that he had to write about first before anything else, and why immigrants, including his mother, built the best parts of America. This episode covers: undocumented immigration, Korean American identity, battle rap culture, cultural appropriation vs. appreciation, Asian American representation in Hollywood, memoir writing, and generational trauma.

When Bad Bunny takes the stage in Spanish, millions celebrate. But for many Puerto Ricans, it lands as something deeper: visibility, resistance, and a reminder of a history the United States still struggles to face. In this episode of Immigrantly, Saadia Khan sits down with Becca Ramos, creator of Welcome to El Barrio, (new episodes release every Tuesday) to discuss colonialism, diaspora, and the complicated politics of calling yourself Puerto Rican—not Puerto Rican American. Becca shares what it meant to grow up Afro-Latina in Texas, feeling too Black in some rooms, not Latino enough in others, and how that tension pushed her to build a platform for her community. The discussion unpacks Puerto Rico's territorial status, the myth of assimilation, the stereotypes that haunt Latino identity in U.S. media, and why joy itself can be a political act. This episode is about who gets ownership over history, language, and home. And what happens when people decide to define those things for themselves?

This coverage was made possible by a grant from URL Collective, a non-profit supporting local diverse media In this reflection episode of Borderly, host and journalist Mario Carrillo returns to the U.S.–Mexico border that shaped his life to ask what the border really is and what it has asked of those who live with it. Through deeply personal stories, Mario reflects on proposing to his wife while overlooking Ciudad Juárez, navigating a nearly seven-year immigration process, and crossing the border together for her final visa interview after decades of separation from her country of birth. He recounts the fear, uncertainty, and cruelty of the immigration system, alongside the hope and belonging that continue to exist at the border every day. This episode is an invitation to slow down, resist flattening the border into myth or argument, and listen more carefully to the people and places we think we already understand.

In the final episode of Borderly, host Mario Carrillo turns to the people who carry the border's weight long after headlines fade. From immigration law to community care, this conversation centers on what it means to show up with dignity when systems fail, and lives hang in the balance. Mario sits down with Melissa M. López, Executive Director of Estrella del Paso, to explore what welcoming people with dignity looks like in practice, not as policy, but as daily work. They reflect on growing up in El Paso, the emotional toll of immigration advocacy, the lasting impact of family separation, and why border communities are so often asked to absorb the consequences of decisions made far away. As Borderly comes to a close, this episode brings the series full circle, returning to El Paso not as a symbol, but as a real place shaped by care, resilience, and responsibility. Wherever borders exist, people quietly hold communities together. This is their story. Borderly is a project of Immigrantly. New episodes follow weekly in January.

In the first two episodes of Borderly, we explored the history, journalism, and lived realities of El Paso and Ciudad Juárez. In Episode 3, we turn to art as memory, resistance, and belonging. Host Mario Carrillo sits down with Patrick Gabaldon, an El Paso–born artist and public defender whose vibrant work reshapes how the border is seen, felt, and remembered. From cactus portraits and desert color palettes to murals at the El Paso airport, Patrick's art challenges the flat, fear-driven narratives often attached to border cities. They talk about growing up on the border, leaving and finding their way back, and why El Paso's art scene is one of the most powerful and underrated cultural forces in the country. Patrick shares family stories that blur history and folklore, reflects on how law and art intersect in his life, and explains why blooming brightly in a desert landscape is a political act. This episode is about place, pride, and the creative pulse of a city that refuses to be reduced to headlines. It's an invitation to look closer at El Paso, at the border, and at the art that records its truth. Borderly is a project of Immigrantly. New episodes follow weekly in January.

Boastful Pharaoh will have a ridiculous death: He will be like an Alligator dropped into the Middle of the Sahara Desert!
This episode is about how a place learns to remember itself. Journalist Bob Moore has spent nearly four decades reporting from El Paso, witnessing the border's evolution through policy shifts, political cycles, tragedy, and resilience. In conversation with host Mario Carrillo, he reflects on what it means to tell the story of a border city over time, not as a headline, but as a lived reality. The discussion moves from El Paso in the 1980s, when crossing was fluid and routine, through the rise of border enforcement, post-9/11 security, family separation, and the ways national immigration debates have repeatedly landed on local communities. Moore speaks candidly about the role of local journalism, the responsibility of reporting on your own neighbors, carrying grief, and staying after the cameras leave. August 3, 2019, is part of this story. The conversation places that day within a longer arc, one shaped by language, fear, political power, and the quiet work of people who insist on documenting what really happened and why it matters. This episode examines El Paso not as a symbol but as a city: complex, welcoming, strained, resilient. A place that refuses to be reduced. Caution: This episode includes discussion of mass violence, hate crimes, and immigration-related trauma. No graphic details are described. New episodes follow weekly in January.

This is Part One of Borderly, a limited series by Immigrantly exploring life on the U.S.–Mexico border through history, memory, and lived experience. Before walls, patrols, or policy debates, there was a river. In this opening episode, host Mario Carrillo returns to El Paso to examine how the border came into existence and what was lost when a line was drawn through land, families, and identity. The episode traces the border's origins from the Rio Grande as a shared lifeline for Indigenous communities, through colonization, war, and the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. Mario reflects on growing up crossing the border freely, leaving El Paso, and what it meant to come back. The episode also features historian Yolanda Chávez Leyva, who shares her border story and decades of research on the El Paso–Juárez region. Her work reveals how revolution, migration, labor, and racial hierarchies shaped the area, and how cruelty and generosity have coexisted here for generations. This episode lays the foundation for the series: the border not as a country's edge, but as a place with its own center, history, and meaning. New episodes follow weekly in January.

As the year comes to a close, Immigrantly host Saadia Khan reflects on belonging, faith, and identity without assimilation. In this solo year-end episode, Saadia shares why she doesn't celebrate Christmas, having grown up in Pakistan surrounded by nearly three million Christians who do, and how witnessing joy across difference has shaped her understanding of respect, pluralism, and belonging. She reflects on holding on to her Muslim identity on her own terms, without turning it into an assimilation exercise. Saadia also looks back on an unexpected but transformative 2025 for Immigrantly Media: launching the Love-ly relationships podcast with Mehak, producing over 200 episodes across the network, and building an app that emerged organically from her own immigrant experience of self-censorship and identity editing. Looking ahead to 2026 with cautious optimism, she previews what's next, including Bitefully, a new food podcast with MasterChef winner Claudia Sandoval, and Borderly, a four-part Immigrantly series centered on human stories from the U.S.–Mexico border. This episode is both a reflection and a thank-you to the community that makes Immigrantly possible—and an invitation to end the year by holding on to the parts of ourselves we were once told to edit.

In this deeply human and sharply funny conversation, Palestinian American comedian Lana Salah joins Saadia in the studio for an unfiltered exploration of comedy, identity, loss, and truth-telling in a world that often prefers silence. Lana, an engineer-turned-comedian whose life spans the Bay Area, the Middle East, and now Los Angeles, breaks down how humor becomes cultural critique, emotional survival, and a form of resistance. From navigating rooms where her Palestinian identity is met with discomfort, to balancing factual vs. emotional truth onstage, to turning the heaviness of genocide, grief, and personal history into art, Lana holds nothing back. Saadia and Lana dive into: How comedy becomes a vessel for truths that policy papers can't deliver The tension between emotional truth vs. factual truth in stand-up Why Muslim women are not a monolith and never were The cost and power of speaking honestly about Palestine in American comedy spaces How loss, family, and survival shape Lana's voice onstage Her unexpected journey from engineering to performing at the Comedy Store This episode is raw, tender, political, and sometimes laugh-out-loud funny. It's a story about belonging, complexity, and what it means to turn pain into purpose without losing your humor along the way. Join us as we create new intellectual engagement for our audience.

Thanksgiving is marketed as a serene celebration of gratitude, family, and food, but Saadia's immigrant household tells a different story. In this extended solo episode, she unpacks the chaos that unfolds when her husband and daughters take over the kitchen, the tradition-defying choice to cook lamb instead of turkey, and the reality of observing the holiday completely sober (which, spoiler: makes everything more intense). Saadia uses her own experiences to reflect on how immigrants reshape American holidays, how gratitude can coexist with frustration, and why acknowledging the messy parts of tradition might actually make them more meaningful. A funny, thoughtful, deeply relatable look at what Thanksgiving really feels like for so many of us. Join us as we create new intellectual engagement for our audience.

What does it mean to belong in America without proving your worth? Why are immigrants still expected to be extraordinary just to be seen as enough? And what happens when we stop performing successfully and simply allow ourselves to be human? In this deeply resonant conversation, host Saadia Khan is joined by Bilal Lakhani, Pakistani-American journalist, writer, and host of the podcast pehchaan, to explore identity, home, immigrant guilt, and the often-unspoken emotional cost of leaving the place you love. Bilal shares how moving from Karachi to the United States led to clinical depression, why raising his daughter changed his understanding of belonging, and how many immigrants internalize the belief that they must achieve in order to deserve space in America. The episode unpacks The pressure on immigrants to be extraordinary rather than ordinary humans Why do many naturalized citizens hesitate to call themselves "immigrants?” Why pauses, joy, and rest are a form of quiet protest The evolving future of Pakistani-American identity and representation Whether you identify as an immigrant, first-gen, third-culture kid, or simply someone trying to understand your place in the world, this conversation offers language, community, and comfort.

What if the story you've been told about “overpopulation” is a lie? Historian Dr. Lina-Maria Murillo, author of Fighting for Control: Power, Reproductive Care, and Race in the U.S.–Mexico Borderlands, joins Saadia Khan to unravel a century of reproductive politics that have shaped how we talk about abortion, contraception, and “desirability.” The episode exposes how eugenics quietly evolved into modern population-control policies and why blaming poor folks for “too many children” masks the real crisis: resource hoarding and racial capitalism. From Mexican border clinics to U.S. legislative battles, this conversation challenges everything we think we know about reproductive rights. It's uncomfortable, revelatory, and necessary. Listen to understand why true reproductive justice means more than the right not to have children; it means the right to raise them in safety, dignity, and care.

Award-winning novelist Shobha Rao joins Saadia Khan to talk about the stories that define and defy us. In this wide-ranging conversation, Shobha reflects on immigrating to the U.S. at age seven, learning English through Little House on the Prairie, and how the quiet of her first snowfall changed her forever. Her latest book, Indian Country, connects the legacies of British colonialism and American expansion while weaving a tender meditation on marriage, identity, and the longing for home. Shobha shares how failure shaped her writing, why language can both limit and liberate, and what “mutating through love” truly means.

Come for the nuance, stay for the vibes! Link below https://hyphenly.beehiiv.com In this powerful solo episode of Immigrantly, host Saadia Khan shares why she is angry and why she is paying close attention to the words we use around immigration. Prompted by a recent ProPublica investigation by journalist Hannah Allam, Saadia explores how government agencies like ICE use terms like “removable,” “alien,” and “target” to strip immigrants of their humanity. From media narratives to political rhetoric, Saadia breaks down how language builds systems and why the shift in migrant demographics, especially the rise of families and children crossing the border, has triggered a more fear-based response in both policy and media. This episode is a reflection, a call-out, and a call-in because changing the language is the first step toward changing the system. Join us as we create new intellectual engagement for our audience.
