    Why Being the Middle Child Sucks

    In this episode, Raida invites her two siblings, Raheeq & Ranya, on to discuss what an honor and pain it is to grow up with the host of Don't Tell Ammu. From Raheeq's bad memory to Raida's cursing problem to a bunch of other dumb sh!t, this is an exciting and informative episode, but mostly because the three of them flame each other for 50 minutes straight.

    Double Standards in Desi Households

    In this episode, Raida brings on her friend Noshin to discuss the double standards girls deal with growing up in a desi household. The two also talk about the pervasive issue of colorism in desi communities and share their thoughts on "mama's boys." Finally, the duo discusses peeing at night, embarrassing calculator histories, and spelling bee mishaps.  This episode is equal parts real and dumb. Enjoy!  I love you, Ammu.

    Being Close Friends with a High School Enemy

    In this episode, Raida invites her close friend Adam on to talk about how they went from "enemies" in high school to very good friends in college. The two discuss why Adam is known as the "cookie man," if friendship is possible when feelings are unreciprocated, and whether men or women have higher standards of love. Also, Adam believes the Zodiac Killer is lame, and Raida flames every single one of Adam's movie recs.  Anyway, enjoy us basically arguing for 70 mins straight.

    An Early Morning Stream of Consciousness

    [Season 2, Episode 2.5] In this episode, Raida wakes up at 6 AM just to groggily speak about everything going on in her life, including playing Valorant, receiving five mysterious bags of groceries, her experience working at a startup, and her lackluster love life. Oh, and Raida talks about the Zodiac Killer as though he's the most interesting thing in the world (he's not). Raida's friends say this episode sounds depressing but honestly, she was just being quiet because her family was sleeping, and she herself had just woken up. Raida says she was actually quite happy when recording this episode LOL. But if you're looking for the usual upbeat Raida, don't listen to this moody ass episode. 3

    How to be the Most Charming Man Alive

    In this episode, Raida brings her close friend Yasser on to discuss their empty love lives in great depth. The two also talk about why Kanye is misunderstood, how Raida's father became a local meme, the key to finding love on TikTok, the science to being a charming mf, and so much more. Also, stay till the end, because there's a fun little surprise.  It's one of the longest DTA episodes to date, so enjoy. If you think Raida's being mean to Yasser in any part of it, she is. He deserves it.

    An End & New Beginning: Bushra's Last Episode

    Hi. It's Bushra. This episode description is going to be a short love note from me to all of you. First, let's go over the basics. This is my last time on DTA as co-host -- in this episode, we talk about why I'm leaving and what the podcast will look like moving forward. Raida and I get candid about how our friendship has been these past few months and where we stand now, and revisit our favorite question: are we still best friends? We also talk about love, because what else do we ever talk about (I may or may not have just gotten engaged, listen to find out), and I leave Raida with a parting gift as co-host: a prediction for when she'll find the man of her dreams. Anyways -- thank you all for the love and support you've showered Raida and me with this past year. It's been an incredible journey and I feel so blessed to have been able to be a part of this amazing project. Hearing from and getting to know all of you has been one of the best parts of this podcast -- you all have been the kindest, ever, and I'm going to miss all of you so much. But I'm so excited to see what Raida does with DTA in the future, I know it's going to be amazing. If you ever want to say hi, or reach out for anything at all, you know where to find me. Sending you all so, so much love.  Signing off, Bushra.
