148: Dispatch From Gaza, with Ahmed Sarsour
Added 2025-10-05 04:23:21 +0000 UTCMatt and Daniel are joined by poet Ahmed Sarsour live from Deir al Balah in Gaza to hold forth on the reality of daily life in a war zone, hopes for the future, and making art in the midst of chaos.
We had a few technical issues given the precarity of the connection, and you’ll notice that Matt exits early without notice due to his own tech mishap, but we’re all happy to bring you word directly from Gaza this week.

What an absolutely stunning, beautiful soul. My heart is in smithereens for all Palestinians and the evil inflicted on them. As an aside, I teach English for a living and I am so impressed by his fluency and the fact that he is self-taught. Thank you so much for this episode. Free Palestine 🇵🇸
