Sam Harris fans, beware!
I’ve been listening to this podcast since it launched quite a few years ago and it’s only gotten better with age. Eiynah, the host, provides a Saudi-raised, ex-Muslim perspective on contemporary politics. She began with a critique of conservative Islam, and as secular forces such as the New Atheist movement shifted rightward with the rise of Trumpism, she turned her incisive critique on them. Through interviews, audio essays, and the use of damning clips, Eiynah skewers the Intellectual Dark Web, with a particular focus on fellow podcaster Sam Harris. If you’re a fan of his, beware. Eiynah deconstructs Harris’s whole reactionary-in-liberal-clothing scam, and we’re all better off for it.
