“If you care about the most important issues and marginalised voices in the SWANA region particularly, but aren’t listening to/supporting Kerning Cultures, then you are missing out big-time. Yalla listen!”

“In a sea of news that often focuses on numbers, violence, and big overviews, Kerning Cultures stands out in its quest to show individual stories and experiences that help reshape this region in our psyche. It’s brilliant, and you won’t be able to stop listening or thinking about it.”

“I heard of this podcast while listening to this American life some time ago. I’m glad I started following kerning cultures, because it was love at first “listen”. You can expect very personal stories and interviews, which give you a sight of the Middle East and it’s people.
Great job!”
