Mo Season 2 comes three years after its first, and so much has changed for Palestine in the real world. Yet Mo Amer and his team keep Season 2 directly after the first, honing in on Mo Najjar's personal journey that so reflects Mo Amer's own family refugee story in Texas. Our friends Tariq Ra'ouf and Kate Sánchez of But Why Tho? join us to discuss Season 2, how well it does at portraying Texas and the Palestinian experience, why the series is so cathartic right now, and much more.
