For five years she lived with bulimia without telling anyone, not even her family, and on this podcast she talks about it for the first time. Joy Ibrahem sits down with Hikmat to talk about being a woman on a stand-up stage in the Arab world, the viral videos she stopped making just for the numbers, the injury that changed her relationship with food, her experience with weight loss injections, and the absent father who shaped the men she chose.

Topics: "I'm actually very shy" · "More of an entertainer than a comedian" · Stage vs. camera: "300 people are worth 300,000 online" · "She's blonde, and she's funny? No" · Jordan and "we're not funny" · The more real it is, the further it travels

Before she was born, a car accident took her brother, and doctors said no baby should have survived it. Tamila Sinan sits down with Hikmat to talk about the life that followed: a childhood spent moving between Turkey, Syria and Iraq, a father who became a stranger, the dentistry career she lost three years in, and the random CV that put a shy business graduate on live television.

Topics: Kurdish, Turkmen, Azerbaijani: “a cocktail” · Turkey, Syria, Iraq and a language she didn’t speak · Three years of dentistry, then it was over · Losing the career you built your identity on · “You’re going to become a dentist” · “The moment of fear is the change”
