In this episode Will & Dezy (our new co-host!) look back at the events of Aban 1398 and what that means for Iran's present state and potential future.

Within the first few minutes we discuss an overview of the topic in English. Then a longer discussion in Farsi and then we listen in on two authentic passages from within Iran to get a different perspective.

Bijan Khalili was imprisoned at the start of the revolution. He's battled injustice and as a Jewish Iranian experienced blatant discrimination at the hands of the Islamic Republic.

In this episode, he joins the show to tell his story and how he came to overcome it all and oppose the regime from afar by providing Farsi language books and media that had been otherwise censored within Iran.

In part two of this three-part series on the most epic Persian stories, Farsi Legend covers the story of Arash the Archer and its importance to the modern Iranian populace.

The story is retold in a beautiful Persian Farsi narration that compares a familiar web-slinging comic book character with a famous ancient Persian hero.

As non-native Farsi speakers, we always hear about this great story that saved the Persian language (the Shahnameh).

But very rarely do we get the opportunity to actually read and analyze the stories within.

In the first of three-part Shahnameh series, Farsi Legend breaks down the story of Rostam and Sohrab and tunes into a dramatic retelling of the final battle that concludes their epic story.

In this episode of Farsi Legend we cover the role of Police (NAJA) in Iranian Society. Tune into speeches from Commanders and even a secretly recorded conversation between a Sepah Intelligence official and a politician (released on BBC Persian via Creative Commons) which eventually led to the politician's arrest and eventual transfer to Evin Prison..

In this episode, in honor of mother’s day recently passing and father’s day coming up here shortly we’re going to be talking about the modern Iranian family.

The Hidden Imam is an essential topic for anyone aiming to learn about modern Iranian society and the religious beliefs that drive the Islamic Republic's theocracy. This episode will explain critical details of the hidden Imam, judgment day, and the perceptions of normal Iranians and experts as it relates to the Imam.
