About this listen

The first-ever podcast about Arab dads, My Arab Dad is a thoughtful, engaging, and light-hearted interview podcast that explores this dynamic by interviewing Arabs from diverse backgrounds – those raised in the Arab world, the diaspora or somewhere in between. Featuring conversations with Arabs from all walks of life, we'll unpack memories and discover how these dynamics shape us.

    Just a quick update from me. I know I haven't released an episode in a while, but I'm working hard to get you more stories from around the global Arab community. In the meantime, here's a compilation of anecdotes that didn't quite make the full episodes, but still illustrate the tapestry of Arab experiences.


    Happy New Year! See you in 2026.

  • Episode 6 | Loubna
    Jul 30 2025

    In this episode, my guest Loubna shares her experiences growing up with a dad who simply couldn’t relate to her childhood because he never had one himself, the pride and admiration she feels for this self-made man, and the nuances of growing up as a Palestinian-Guatemalan.
