    Ramy Youssef Has a Goal Age?

    [This encore episode releases in honor of an epic year for Ramy Youssef (starring in the Oscar-nominated film Poor Things, guest-directing an episode of Emmy-nominated series The Bear, releasing his film Ramy Youssef: More Feelings, speaking out on behalf of people suffering in the Middle East and more)] Do most people live in a state of ‘death denial’? Should we all aspire to live to a healthy 102; or shoot for a more modest, albeit blessed, 63 years? Are therapy, astrology, and deep breathing the keys to a longer, happier life? Actor, comedian, writer, and director Ramy Youssef joins Mo and AZ for some light AF banter.

    Was Muhammad Ali an American Muslim Saint? ft. Imam Zaid Shakir

    Born Ricky D. Mitchell in Berkeley, CA in 1956, Imam Zaid Shakir converted to Islam in 1977 while serving in the United States Air Force. He studied the religion of Islam extensively, and today is popularly regarded as “America’s Imam,” and one of the most prominent Muslim preachers alive. Imam Zaid was Muhammad Ali’s spiritual leader, guide, and dear friend, and was whispering prayers into his ear in his hospital room when he passed away. Per Ali’s prior request, he led his funeral prayer and presided over his memorial service. Among other achievements and accolades, he is also the co-founder of Zaytuna College (a private Islamic liberal arts college). He publishes regularly on contemporary issues and matters of public interest and debate, both as a private scholar and public intellectual. This episode is a rare gem, full of wisdom, insight, and timeless advice for the sincere seeker of truth.  Guest: Imam Zaid Shakir More Info: Article: “The Greatest, At Rest,” by Tom Junod Link: https://www.espn.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/19409912/the-planning-muhammad-ali-funeral  Websites: https://zaytuna.edu/academics/faculty/zaid-shakir  https://www.newislamicdirections.com/new_nid/about/  ORIGINAL AUDIO PRODUCTION, MUSIC & SOUND DESIGN BY SALT Executive Produced by Mo Amer, Azhar Usman, Noah Gersh, Jamie Schefman, Nick Panama, Kenzi Wilbur Head of Creative: Jordan Galvan  Head of Production: Liz LeMay Head of Post Production: Robert Adler Producers: Imran Ali Malik & Aaron Kennedy  Supervising Producers: Allie Strobel & Alice Bearn Post Production Supervisor: Aly Honoré Post Production Coordinator: Jax Raffle  Edited by: Geoffrey Mutchnik and Aaron Kennedy  Sound Design and Music by: Matthew Chilelli Mixed by: Aaron Kennedy  Recorded by Aaron Kennedy, Zack Djurich and Mario Borgatta  Guest Booking by Drive Entertainment and Hager Eldaas Additional music courtesy of Extreme Music.

  • In the corrupt and deadly world of the illegal wildlife trade, criminals are responsible for the wholesale slaughter of animals, and the suffering of people, too. Justice is rarely found. Undeterred, one man set out to bring down one of the biggest wildlife trafficking syndicates on the African continent. His name is Wolf. And he’s a spy. Investigative journalist Runako Celina takes us through the bizarre and far-reaching web of the global illegal wildlife trade and those trying to dismantle it. From Luminary, Drake's DreamCrew Entertainment, Novel, and Thread Studios, this is Pull The Thread, Season 1: The Wild Life.

  • Examine the many faces of Michael Jackson with host Brandon Ogborn. What starts as a simple question of guilt or innocence quickly turns into a searching chronicle of race, fame and abuse. Drawing on extensive interviews and relying on much-needed humor, Ogborn and co-host Omar Crook interview Jackson’s defense attorneys, the investigators and prosecutors who pursued him, and the writers and tabloid journalists who followed the cases and ferreted out leads. Through those interviews and their ruminations, Ogborn and Crook wander the hall of mirrors that was Jackson’s life, painstakingly, sometimes painfully, reconstructing the complex narrative of an iconic and troubled performer haunted by allegations of criminal perversion.

  • In 1999, a music festival took place in upstate New York that became a social experiment. There were riots, looting, and numerous assaults. And it was set to a soundtrack of the era’s most aggressive rock bands. Incredibly, it was the third iteration of Woodstock, a festival known for peace, love, and hippie idealism. But Woodstock ’99 revealed some hard truths behind the myths of the 1960s, and the danger that nostalgia can engender.
