What people are saying
“THAT'S NOT IRANIAN CULTURE, DUDE!!!!!”
“Bill, if you want to talk about “enlightenment” in the Middle East, why not interview a secular Palestinian from the West Bank? Ask what Israeli democracy looks like from the other side of checkpoints, military law and expanding settlements…”
“Great interview I had the same experience leaving USA to live in Iran as a 10-year-old”
“Max you speak English with an accent 😅 Do you think you look American?? I’m raised in U.S & Iran and attended both schools!! I’m confused what you’re getting at??”
