    About this Episode

    Today’s episode is about dating and relationships. 

    Boys and girls, men and women, young and old, met, dated, and had relationships. They met though, and that's usually when it all starts! In this podcast Hassan and co-host Mira talk with Leila Muhaizen about this topic. Leila is the founder and CEO of Baklava, the only Arab dating app out there. Leila studied Media & Communication in her native Lebanon before moving to the US where she combined her experience in social entrepreneurship and project management, to build a social app focused on dating and friendships for Arabs from all walks of life. It's a fun and informative conversation that we hope you’ll enjoy.

    NGOs & Non-Profit Orgs: a conversation with Dr Kamel Mohanna. Part 2. In Arabic.

    Humanitarian work has evolved over the years from initially serving religious and political agendas, to non-profit non-governmental and civil society organizations, to large international institutions.

    The proliferation of many organizations raises many questions prime among them: why? who can we trust? who is legitimate? And how and what works? 

    Helping us understand all of this is Dr Kamel Mohanna, a physician and a humanitarian who’s been a beacon in the field. Dr Mohanna is the General Coordinator of the Arab NGOs, and the Founding President of Amel Association International.

    Arab Americans: Differences and Similarities. In Arabic.

    Arab Americans: Differences and Similarities. In Arabic.

    Arabs in America come in different flavors. There are those attached to their roots who live their lives as if still in the old country, and those who have melted and became fully assimilated in the American society. And many others are scattered across the spectrum, from segregated to totally accultured and integrated. This is not unique to our Arab-American community, migrant communities often evolve and develop many similar characteristics over the years, especially here in the US.
     In this episode we share our “non-scientific” observations as we discuss what we have witnessed from our vintage point as the Arab American Café patrons.. 😉

    Abortion, الإجهاض In Arablish

    Abortion, الإجهاض  In Arablish

    Abortion is prohibited by most religions, hotly debated in many circles, and an issue of contentious political divide. In this podcast we talk to an Arab American OB/GYN: Dr. Leila Hajjar-Nolan to learn from her the medical indications of abortion, how and when abortion can and should be performed, and what potential complications are associated with this procedure. In the wake of the recent news about the possible overturn of Roe vs Wade by the Supreme Court of the United States, this topic resurfaced with an intensity that merits a medical opinion.
