Two gay Palestinian men with too many opinions and not enough patience for explaining ourselves. While our people endure genocide and struggle for liberation, we’re here to shed light on the everyday lives of queer Palestinians in the diaspora—our joys, contradictions, petty debates, and deep feelings. This isn’t a defense, it’s a conversation. Join Khalil and Ali as we navigate it all with humor, honesty, and absolutely no filter.

Why Your Fave Is Probably Evil: Stan Culture, and Parasocial Crimes- Episode 6
From Twilight tears to Barb-level chaos, Ali and Khalil unpack the wild world of stan culture—where fans go from cute to cult real fast. We talk parasocial delusions, pop diva propaganda, celebrity marketing psyops, and why everyone's fave is probably lowkey (or highkey) problematic. Also: DJ drama, techno snobbery, IVF babies, and Trixie Mattel beef. It's a lot. Just press play.
