In this razor-sharp episode of Season 4 of The Tea with Myriam François, we sit down with comedian and political fire-starter Bassem Youssef to unpack the surreal state of power and resistance.
Bassem is a former surgeon who swapped scalpels for satire. Dubbed the “Jon Stewart of the Arab world”, Bassem brings his no-holds-barred analysis to questions that many fear to ask — about complicity, distraction, and how the elite keep uprisings in check.
From the fallout of the Epstein files to the IDF’s social media storms, we ask:
Who’s running the show — and how does humour disrupt their script?
Together, we explore the thin line between laughter and dissent — and whether satire still has teeth in an age of spin.
🛑 Who gets exposed and who gets protected in the Epstein saga?
🛑 What the IDF’s TikTok game tells us
🛑 Is comedy still a weapon against power or part of the circus?
🛑 Why is Superman making Zionists mad?
🛑 Why global uprisings are so easily crushed
🛑 The elite playbook: distraction, division, domination
This isn’t just laughs – because truth rarely sits easily.
