One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This

We discuss the cowardice on display at the Berlinale film festival. Ladan also laments her own cowardice when she was faced with the moral quandary of accidentally giving directions to a nationality who support bombing hospitals and kids. We also discuss Ash Wednesday, pinkwashing, which Christians are the most authentic and also my favourite film of the week.

"F**k ICE"? but pro Israel and/or silent on Palestine? Yup...sounds about lib™ to me! Ladan and Alia discuss Hollywood vapidness amidst the crackdowns in Iran and the chickens coming home to roost in America with ICE. We also express our devotion to our political crush Ilhan Omar after she was attacked.

What do white liberals, lesbians and Somalis have in common? Not much! However, the recent increase in violent and hostile ICE activities in Minnesota may be the catalyst that brings us together. We discuss how Somalis are currently the centre of the world (both in America and in wider geopolitics), how we misjudged white liberals and we also unpack lesbophobia in the context of the horrific k*lling of Renee Good.

What a year 2025 has been for us all and what a year it has been for the Somali community. In this episode of Apparently...we discuss the controversy surrounding the now infamous community - are we 'garbage' or are we misunderstood?

It's been a depressing week in the UK. In episode 2 of our 'Yookay' series, Ladan and I discuss the complicated feelings that ethnic minorities have towards the crimes from recent asylum seekers. We ask...is possible for us to talk about this crisis honestly without becoming right wing or red-pilled?

In this inaugural episode of our Yookay series, we discuss what "Yookay" means in the context of the 'decline of the UK', we also look at some recent examples of "peak Yookay" and what this means for our future as ethnic minorities in the country.

We discuss the UK's love affair with having POC and/or women in the Home Secretary role...why they keep doing this and what this means for marginalised communities.

Another day ending in Y — and another celeb finally pretending to care. We break down Jennifer Lawrence’s very late comments on Gaza and whether we actually need celebrities.

We discuss the ****-show that is the launch of the new left wing alternative to Labour.

Alia and Ladan have a short and sweet chat about the hoo-haa surrounding the racist tweets of Karla Sofía Gascón; the first trans woman nominated for an acting Oscar. Also...WTF is happening with the Syria discourse? Does the I in ISIS stand for intersectional?
