finally, our long awaited episode! today, we're talking about dating outside of our culture. mna is the expert here so she takes the lead, but we both discuss our experiences, our anticipations and hesitations and the lessons learned along the way. **hager's edit: i realized i sound super passive aggressive towards mna in certain moments on this episode and wanted to clarify that she's my baby sister and i do love her. most days, anyway.**

on this episode, we change our format a bit; we go from one-topic dominated episodes to a more multi-topic, current events style show. we talk about why we call ourselves 'arab' and the current discussion around the word itself. we also speak our dream futures into existence (fingers crossed) and talk about the state of utter sadness mna would be in if tiktok were to be banned for real.

On this week's episode, we talk about being represented; what types of representation we have out there, what the word means for each of us, and why it's okay to not feel 100% represented by other people's Arab experiences. This is a HUGE topic for us and we intend to have many episodes on this!
